What's Wrong with Liking Guata?

Just a few days ago, at the invitation of Ike, Ju Ji joined a chat group exclusively for boys. This was a great opportunity for Ju Ji to make friends. Naturally, he wouldn't refuse.

"Morning, Ike!"

"Morning, Sudo!"

"Oh, morning, Shinomiya!"

As soon as he arrived in the classroom, he saw Ike and Sudo discussing something with radiant expressions on their faces.

To avoid being late and to stagger his arrival time with Kikyo, Ju Ji usually arrived twenty minutes early. In the past, there wouldn't be a single person in the classroom at this hour. But now, these two had actually arrived so early. It was clearly abnormal.

"Hahaha, this school is truly amazing. I didn't expect us to have swimming lessons starting this season. Speaking of swimming lessons, that means girls! And speaking of girls, that means school swimsuits."

That's right, the reason they came so early today was exactly this. Today was the day for the swimming lesson. The swimming lessons at this school were co-ed. In other words, they would be able to see the school swimsuits of Horikita, Kikyo, and the other girls... as well as their skin. To say nothing of them, even Ju Ji felt a bit of anticipation.

However, at a time like this, it was better to stay away from them. Otherwise, he would get dragged into the topic they were discussing, which would inevitably lead to the girls' disgust.

"Hey! Professor, come over here!"

"Huhu, is the Professor calling me?"

A chubby boy nicknamed Professor slowly shuffled over.

"Professor, you'll be recording the girls' swimsuits properly, right?"

"Leave it to me. I plan to use feeling unwell as an excuse to audit the class."

"Recording?"

"I'm planning to have the Professor create a ranking of the girls in class with big breasts. And if there's a chance, take photos with his phone."

"Hey, hey, hey!"

"You can't do that, can you?"

But it wasn't just Ju Ji; even Sudo expressed strong disapproval of Ike's goal. If the girls found out about something like this, it wouldn't be something that could be brushed off as a joke. It would definitely trigger a very serious dispute.

"It's fine, it won't be exposed. Want to place a bet on the size of the girls' breasts?"

"I've even got a betting odds table here."

Professor took out his tablet and opened an Excel file.

It listed the names of all the girls in the class, along with their odds. To be honest, this kind of bet was completely meaningless to Ju Ji. He could figure this kind of thing out directly using his X-ray vision. Although, he had no need to do such a thing.

"No, I'll pass on participating."

It would be too much of a cheat for him to bet.

"How boring. Shinomiya, do you even understand the romance of a man?"

Hey, Ike, keep your voice down. Don't you see the girls looking at us like we're trash?

"Still, this is better than I imagined. You guys observed them way too carefully."

"Because we're men. Our heads are always filled with breasts and butts."

Well, although it was a fact, there was no need to say it so explicitly. And there was nothing to be proud of, either.

Just as Ju Ji was complaining in his heart, the boys in the class noisily gathered around. They began to discuss the issue of the girls' breast sizes with explicit enthusiasm. Some of the girls in the classroom looked at them as if they were seeing something filthy, viewing them with even greater contempt.

"Hey, Horikita, there's no need to look at me with those eyes. I didn't participate."

"Your head is probably filled with just as much yellow trash as theirs, and you're likely thinking the same things."

"Careful, or I'll sue you for slander."

"Yes! It's the pool!"

After lunch break ended, the swimming lesson that Ike and the others had been looking forward to finally arrived.

In order to change quickly, Sudo immediately began stripping off his uniform. He revealed the physique he had honed through special basketball training. The muscle definition was particularly prominent. It was more than just a little better than the other students.

Compared to the students who were wrapping bath towels around their waists, he just stood there naked while taking his swimsuit out of his bag. For this attitude, Ju Ji felt a sense of admiration from the bottom of his heart.

"What the hell is that?"

Sudo, who had already changed into his competitive swimsuit, wore a dumbfounded expression when he saw the swimsuit in Ju Ji's hand.

"Ah, what a cute swimsuit. So, Shinomiya, you like this type?"

"Isn't this hobby a bit childish?"

Upon hearing Sudo's exclamation, the surrounding boys who had finished changing gathered around. Ju Ji became the center of attention because of his unique swimsuit featuring a Gekota pattern.

"What of it? It's my freedom to wear whatever swimsuit I want. And what's wrong with liking Gekota?"

"Hahaha, how did I not notice before? Shinomiya, you're such an interesting guy. I'll head out first... Damn, how could it be this big?"

Because of this incident, Sudo's attitude toward Ju Ji seemed to have changed a little. After changing into his swimsuit, he walked straight out of the locker room, seemingly muttering something under his breath before he left.

"As expected, this school is great. The water in the pool is clear and clean. The girls? Haven't the girls changed yet?"

Ike hummed a tune while searching for the girls. It was surely because of his frivolous personality that he couldn't find a girlfriend.

"What would happen if I couldn't control myself and broke into the girls' locker room?"

"I will personally hand you over to the police."

"Hey, there's no need to betray a friend like that!"

Ike became furious at Ju Ji's statement. But could they really be considered friends? Was making friends truly that easy? Had he inadvertently accomplished the feat of making a friend? Ju Ji couldn't help but feel skeptical about the term.

"Ike, since we're already friends, let's exchange contact information."

"I mean, I guess that's fine, but why so sudden?"

"Don't worry about it, just give me your contact info."

"Wait, don't be in such a rush."

It seemed the word "friend" had triggered a keyword for Ju Ji. His emotions became agitated, and under his insistent demands, he successfully obtained Ike's contact information. He had made his first friend other than Kikyo.

This was truly something worth celebrating; Ike was such a good guy. He should definitely help him out when he needed it. After all, he was the first person Ju Ji had made friends with in the true sense of the word.

"Being too obsessed with swimsuits will make girls hate you."

Since they were friends now, Ju Ji felt it was better to give him a heads-up.

"Is there any guy who wouldn't be obsessed... what if they stand right in front?"

Yeah, this guy was a lost cause. Ju Ji had already started considering whether it would be better to cut ties. However, if that moment ever really came, Ike would surely be loathed by the girls until graduation.

"Whoa~, such a spacious pool. It's even bigger than the one from middle school."

A few minutes later, the voices of the girls emerged.

"It's... it's happening!"

Ike had already struck a pose to get a good look, while Ju Ji silently took two steps back. He was signaling that he didn't know this person.

To be honest, though, Ju Ji was also quite curious about the swimsuits of Kikyo and Horikita. As for Hasebe, who was rumored to have the largest chest, there was no need to look forward to it, as he already knew she would be taking leave to join the trainee group...
