She Wants to Fish Me?

Through this prompt, he could know anything about this world at any time and place, as well as what was about to happen next.

Not only that, but it could also provide the most perfect solutions.

As he wondered whether he should go find Sakayanagi Arisu, the small blue text appeared once again.

[Are you feeling lost after just arriving in this world? Don't worry, I will answer everything you want to know.]

[1. You might think Sakayanagi Arisu is currently searching for the rules of this school to win; she is the initiator, and she possesses the most intelligence.

However, in reality, she is somewhere drinking coffee, enjoying the smoke of this school, and she is taking no action at all.

If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. She doesn't want to rule a troublesome class full of problems; that would be too exhausting. It is better to let others act as proxies for her in the early stages.

In the midst of this class conflict, she holds all the initiative and will also gain a great deal of public support.

Her plan is to bury all the geniuses. You can choose to cooperate with her, but during the first year, Class A will suffer several major defeats.]

[2. The one thing this school does not lack is geniuses. Even in the strongest class, Class A, there are still many hidden talents.

You can unearth these geniuses and make them your assets.

Leaving the dormitory, Morishita Ai has been waiting for you on the bench downstairs for a long time. She has been observing you for a while; even if you avoid her this time, she will find another way to manufacture an encounter with you.]

[3. At 2:50 PM, head to the convenience store in Keyaki Shopping Mall and find Kiryuin Fuka. No one understands the rules of this school better than her. Choosing this option will provide follow-up hints.]

Leaving his room and walking down the corridor, Yagami Shizuka indeed saw Morishita Ai sleeping on the bench downstairs.

It was only 12:30, so it didn't conflict with the time to go to the convenience store.

He could choose either of the latter two options.

However, he was curious.

What does she want with me?

Is she trying to hook me?

Without overthinking it, Yagami Shizuka washed his face and left the dormitory.

This dormitory complex was huge, consisting of 13 floors. The first floor was the administrator's lobby, which also sold various goods, and every floor was equipped with Wi-Fi.

The girls lived on the top six floors, and the boys lived on the bottom six.

Yagami Shizuka's room was 201 on the second floor, making it very convenient to go downstairs.

If he wanted to avoid Morishita Ai, he could just take the other side instead of the elevator.

But he didn't intend to do that; there was no need.

If she wanted to have a "chance encounter," he would let her.

Yagami Shizuka walked past the bench as if nothing were wrong. Just as he was about to pass, he suddenly heard a loud female voice from behind, "Huh? Where is this? Excuse me, classmate, please wait a moment."

Morishita Ai walked up to Yagami Shizuka in two or three steps. "I'm sorry, I seem to be lost. Could I ask you for directions?"

Yagami Shizuka stopped and looked at the girl in front of him, who had purple-blue hair tied into two cute pigtails.

She was beautiful.

To be precise, there were almost no unattractive girls in this school.

All kinds of delicate flowers vied for beauty here, making it hard to tell who was superior.

Nothing could be read from her seemingly innocent purple eyes, but there was a hint of mischief in her lively and free-spirited gaze.

And this only served to highlight her uniqueness.

Seeing that Yagami Shizuka didn't speak for a long time, Morishita Ai added, "Do you know which way the dormitory is?"

Yagami Shizuka was stunned. He looked up at the dormitory. Wasn't she acting a bit too deliberate? Wasn't the dormitory right in front of them?

Were the ways girls hit on guys so clumsy these days?

Fearing she would play dumb again, he pointed his finger. "This is the dormitory. Just go to the lobby on the first floor to check in and apply for a room card."

"Ah?" Morishita Ai looked behind her with some surprise, thinking to herself, So that's it. But she had a reason for not going to check in yet.

"Do boys and girls live in the same building? Wouldn't that be too... I saw many boys going up... I thought this wasn't the dormitory."

She managed to round off her excuse.

It wasn't just her; many girls hesitated when they walked here, unable to believe this was the dormitory.

"Oh! Because it's based on room cards, one person per room," Yagami Shizuka explained to her. "There is also surveillance in the elevator, so you don't have to worry about boys doing anything to girls."

"Oh!" Morishita Ai nodded as if she had just realized it. Hearing that it was one person per room, she felt a surge of joy.

"By the way, what's your name? Thank you so much for pointing the way for me." Only at this moment did her eyes become clear as she casually stated the purpose of her visit.

Since she had tried so hard to play dumb, Yagami Shizuka had no choice but to play along and give his name. "Yagami Shizuka."

"Whoa!" Morishita Ai pointed at Yagami Shizuka with wide eyes and said, "I remember now! You're that bold guy who stood up for the whole class and dared to confess to Chairman Sakayanagi's daughter the moment you arrived."

Bold guy? What kind of nickname is that?

This wouldn't end up becoming my nickname, would it?

The surprised expression on her face didn't look faked; if I hadn't known her objective beforehand through the prompt, I might have actually been fooled by her.

"You're really brave!" Morishita Ai said, clenching her fist in praise.

"My name is Morishita Ai. You might not remember me, but I'm also a student in Class A, sitting in the very last seat of the back row. It's a pleasure to meet you."

After finishing her self-introduction, she pointed to the chair behind her, as if not wanting to be impolite. "Let's sit for a bit, shall we? Why don't you tell me about your confession to Sakayanagi? Was it really love at first sight?"

Under her insistent invitation, Yagami Shizuka walked over to the bench but didn't sit down.

Morishita Ai patted the bench, her bright purple eyes fixed on him. "Sit down, don't be shy! Where did the courage you had to confess to Sakayanagi go?"

"Just state your purpose directly. Why are you looking for me?" Yagami Shizuka said, getting straight to the point.

"Of course, I want to hear the reason you confessed to Sakayanagi. Can you tell me? Do you really like Sakayanagi?"

It was inconvenient to talk while standing, so Yagami Shizuka had no choice but to sit down, leaving a wide gap between them.

Morishita Ai narrowed her eyes slightly and scooted over. "Sitting so far away, you wouldn't still be... would you?"

Yagami Shizuka didn't make a sound, waiting quietly for her to draw closer.

Even though their bodies were very close, and he could smell the scent of hair product and body wash soaked into her, his heartbeat didn't speed up by even half a second, let alone show any signs of panic.

"You don't need to know the reason I confessed to Arisu. I truly do like Arisu," he said in a flat tone.

"Why don't I believe that?" Morishita Ai raised an eyebrow. "With your personality, you dared to confess to Sakayanagi in front of the whole class on the first day of school?"

Yagami Shizuka finally understood; everything she had done just now was a test, trying to capture his expressions to confirm that his confession definitely wasn't an ordinary one.
