482 (Part 1) Mai and Yukino's Relationship

To everyone's surprise, Motoko's eyes widened. "No way! I'd feel guilty coming here for a free meal!"

"..."

He knew that Motoko came over mainly to eat; otherwise, she wouldn't have stayed at his house for so long.

"Do as you please."

Shuya waved his hand.

After that, he didn't say anything more and focused on eating.

Kirino asked curiously, "Shuya- senpai, has that matter at your school been resolved?"

Her eyes were full of curiosity...

"I'm not sure. You know I didn't go to school today, right?"

After Shuya answered, Kirino gave a disappointed "hmm".

"I'll ask about the results tomorrow, and I'll let you know then... you guys."

He noticed Ayase's concerned look, so he added the word "they".

After dinner, they left one after another.

Shuya took a shower and was planning to play some games before going to bed when Mai called.

He answered, "Good evening, what's up? Missing me?"

Don't talk nonsense.

Mai instinctively and quickly made a sarcastic remark.

"Then something's wrong. Speak."

"I've come across a rather interesting script."

"A name? Let me look for it."

Shuya recalled the scripts Maeda Saori had given him before, and he wondered which one had caught Mai's attention.

"Oh, no. That's a new script I received; you don't have it."

Mai said, "Are you busy after school tomorrow? I'll come over and see you."

"It's not really anything special. I just have club activities. Yukino- chan's been super scary lately, so I can't just skip anything."

"Hahaha," Mai laughed, "I'd be a fool to believe you."

She hit the nail on the head. "You're not afraid, you're just too lazy to argue with her, aren't you?"

You understand me.

"Hmph, I've known you for so many years."

Mai was beaming with pride.

She paused for a moment, then said, "Then you can attend your club activities Amaterasu. I'll visit your school and see what your club activities are like."

"That's fine too."

Shuya thought to himself that since Kyousuke from another school had come to him for help last time, it wouldn't be a big deal if Mai came too.

It seems the Service Club has expanded its business again, this time even extending beyond Chiba.

Shuya smiled indifferently, chatted with Mai for a few words, and then hung up the phone.

Go play games.

Nothing happened overnight, and it was Friday.

Time flies, and the third week of Itsuki is drawing to a close.

Looking back, this period of time has been incredibly fulfilling, Shuya feels like he's finally escaped his lazy, laid-back phase.

Mai's case, Motoko's case, Kirino's case, the production of the new album, the voice acting for the new anime, and so on.

Busy...

Shuya couldn't help but sigh as he walked to school.

"What's wrong? Why are you sighing so early in the morning?"

Uesugi Futaro was passing by, glanced at him sideways.

Suddenly I feel so busy.

"Excuse my bluntness, but are you sure this change in behavior isn't just due to your previous laziness?"

Uesugi bluntly told the truth.

"You talk too much."

Shuya curled his lip and said:

"Don't talk about me, you'll have the same thought when you become famous."

"I haven't even finished learning the skills yet, do you think it's too early for me to become famous?"

Uesugi replied.

Shuya shrugged, not discussing the issue with him.

The two walked quietly to school when Shuya suddenly caught sight of a classmate from Yuigahama's small group of fujoshi (female fans of male-male romance).

Hehehe.

She stared at Shuya and Uesugi, a strange smile on her face.

"Grass."

Shuya felt a chill run down his spine and said to Uesugi, "I'm leaving now."

"Oh."

Uesugi nodded.

Shuya quickly left, no longer wanting to be the object of a fujoshi's fantasy.

He went to school, didn't run into anyone while changing his shoes, and calmly returned to the classroom.

"Shu-chan, ya hello!"

He was greeted by Yuigahama's ever-adorable smiling face.

Good morning, Yui- chan.

Shuya and asked, "How did things go?"

"It's been resolved!"

Yuigahama and Shuya explained the situation.

Yesterday, when choosing groups, Yellow Hair followed Hikigaya's method and had the three of them form their own groups, hoping to make them friends rather than friends of friends.

The problem was solved without harming anyone else, and the Yellow Hair was quite satisfied.

But the final result was somewhat comical.

Yellow Hair ultimately chose to be in the same group as Hikigaya and the cross-dresser, but the other students discovered this and all changed their groups to the same locations as him, rendering the group assignments meaningless.

"That way, everyone won't have to argue anymore, which is great!"

Yuigahama seemed quite satisfied.

"Whatever makes you happy."

Shuya sat back down in his seat, feeling a bit bored.

He definitely preferred to see them fight rather than have this peaceful ending.

It's too boring now; it can't bring him any joy.

Therefore, Shuya showed little interest.

Then Yuigahama said, "Oh, Shu-chan, there's something I need to tell you."

Section 520, page 482 (Part 1): The Relationship Between Mai and Yukino

"Speak."

Shuya said to Yuigahama.

"It's about your group..." Yuigahama said cautiously, "I noticed everyone filled in the same group, so I took the liberty of writing your name in... Is that alright?"

"Sure, no problem."

Shuya didn't seem to care. "Anyway, I'll most likely be sick that day."

"Haha, I think Shu-chan should participate in more school activities."

Yuigahama let out a dry laugh.

"What, do you really want me to come with you?"

Shuya gave Yuigahama a playful smile.

Yuigahama blushed upon hearing his words.

"Uh, uh, that! Me, me, me!"

Yuigahama stammered, unable to speak.

Her face just kept getting redder and redder.

"Hey, stop Yui with Yui all the time."

The Golden Hair couldn't stand it Shuya a threatening look.

"..."

Shuya stared back at him expressionlessly.

A minute passed.

Two minutes passed.

"Aww!"

Yuigahama started to panic.

Three minutes later, the Golden Hair couldn't help but look away.

We won!

Shuya proudly raised his head.

"Are you sick?! Are you a child?!"

The Golden Hair retriever seemed to be shivering with cold... well, not really.

"Isn't this on the same level as your comments? You see everything as romance, and everyone who's together is dating."

"You!"

The Golden Hair slammed its fist on the table in anger.

"What, does having a loud voice give you the right to be right?"

Shuya found the Golden Hair's reaction very amusing and couldn't resist teasing her.

"Alright, alright, Yumiko, calm down... Inoue- kun, can you please stop provoking her?"

Yellow Hair stepped forward with a wry smile to mediate.

The Golden Hair was quite obedient to him; after snorting, it indeed remained silent.

Seeing this Shuya also didn't bother to argue with her.

He lowered his head and started playing on his phone, no longer talking to Yuigahama and the others.
