The Evening of the Second Day of the School Trip
When Sakayanagi saw Shuichi Kanda, she ran over immediately, and Shuichi Kanda carefully observed her condition and complexion.
Not only do I no longer need crutches, I can even run! Is it really that effective with just half the dose of the special medicine?
But, Sakayanagi, don't you think this is too flashy?
"It seems you're recovering quite well."
Upon hearing Shuichi Kanda's words, Sakayanagi's eyes lit up.
"So it really was you who caused the changes in my body?"
Shuichi Kanda glanced at the Yamamura that was walking towards them, smiled, and didn't answer.
"Anyway, I'm glad you're okay. I'm going to eat now."
"I'll go with you."
Shuichi Kanda tilted his head and looked at her.
This guy's gone mad.
No, if you get this close to me, the Student Council in Class B will go crazy, won't they?
We were ready to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first?
However, Shuichi Kanda didn't bother with him. He simply went to the cafeteria on his own, ordered more food than usual, and sat down at the table.
Sakayanagi sat opposite him, resting his chin on his hands and smiling at Shuichi Kanda.
Shuichi Kanda felt a little uneasy under her gaze.
However, in the end, his appetite prevailed, and Shuichi Kanda ignored him and began to eat.
Sakayanagi just stared at Shuichi Kanda, wondering why she used to find him annoying when he was so handsome and elegant even when he was eating.
Meanwhile, Yamamura, who had been following Sakayanagi the whole time, was completely bewildered.
Oh no, could it be that Classmate Sakayanagi has fallen for Shuichi Kanda?
Her behavior was exactly like that of a girl who had fallen in love.
However, the object of his affections is Shuichi Kanda, who already has a girlfriend named Kamuro. Moreover, it's rumored that he has also been in relationships with other girls, such as Kushida and Ichinose.
Besides, some first-year female students admire him, and many second-year girls have been flirting with him. Has Sakayanagi finally fallen for him too?
Yamamura felt her mind go blank. It was all over. If the students in Class B knew that Sakayanagi would also have this expression, they would probably feel like the sky had fallen.
However, seeing Sakayanagi like this, she couldn't bear to go up and disturb her.
Shuichi Kanda ate very quickly, finishing in just over ten minutes, mainly because the strange looks he received made it difficult for him to enjoy his meal.
So after quickly finishing, he picked up the cutlery and put it back where it belonged, and Sakayanagi followed him the whole time.
"What exactly do you want?"
I'd like to talk to you alone.
Shuichi Kanda glanced at the distant Yamamura, then nodded. He then led Sakayanagi to the end of the corridor. Here, there was only one path on the opposite side, and anyone coming could see them, so there was no need to worry about being eavesdropped on.
"Speak, there's no one else here."
"You saved me, didn't you?" Sakayanagi's words were full of double meaning, and Shuichi Kanda naturally understood what she meant.
"That's right, it's me. So what? No need for thanks. I can't just watch you die in front of me."
After eating his fill, Shuichi Kanda felt sleepy again. After saying that, he couldn't help but yawn, then crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, looking quite languid.
"I heard you were the one who carried me out of there."
"Yes, that's right."
"I thought you were going to keep bringing me up."
Shuichi Kanda was speechless. This bastard was still so vengeful. All he did was put him in the car this morning!
Sakayanagi was secretly pleased to see Shuichi Kanda's speechless expression. She had almost never won Shuichi Kanda before, so she was happy to gain a slight advantage now.
"Kanda, I have a question for you to answer carefully."
"You go first."
Shuichi Kanda's eyelids drooped; he neither agreed nor refused, clearly intending to hear the question first before deciding whether to answer.
Do you think I'm cute?
Speechless. Speechless, utterly speechless.
"I thought you were going to say something, but this is all?"
"Answer me first, am I cute?"
Shuichi Kanda glanced at the persistent Sakayanagi and then gave his assessment.
"Your personality has absolutely nothing to do with cuteness, do I even need to comment on that?" Shuichi Kanda yawned and continued, "But if you're just looking at your appearance, you're quite cute."
That's true. Sakayanagi has a very pretty face and a petite figure, and she's white-haired. If it weren't for her personality issues, she would definitely be a high-quality girl.
After hearing Shuichi Kanda's words, Sakayanagi nodded in satisfaction.
"Since I'm so cute, can you go out with me?"
Admittedly, even Shuichi Kanda was stunned at this moment.
No, what are you talking about, Sakayanagi?
The update will be a little late tomorrow.

Chapter 377 The Evening of the Second Day of the School Trip
Upon hearing Sakayanagi's words, Shuichi Kanda fell silent again, or rather, he was somewhat stunned.
No, what nonsense are you talking about?
You want to date me?
Don't you know I already have a girlfriend?
"I already have a girlfriend."
Although Sakayanagi is cute, Shuichi Kanda doesn't intend to accept her so easily, after all, this guy's personality is just too domineering.
Simply put, Shuichi Kanda was afraid that Kamuro wouldn't be able to control her. After all, Kamuro was so considerate of Shuichi Kanda, and Shuichi Kanda couldn't betray her.
The reason why Kiryuin Shuichi Kanda didn't hesitate before was because Kiryuin wasn't interested in fighting, but Sakayanagi is different; this guy is very aggressive.
Even if you're going to accept her, you have to teach her a lesson. You don't have to smooth out all her thorns, but at least you have to tone down her aggressive personality.
"I know, it's Masumi, right?"
Sakayanagi's smile remained unchanged as he directly stated the name of Shuichi Kanda's girlfriend.
"That's right, since you already know..."
"But you don't only Masumi- kun as a girlfriend, do you?"
Before Shuichi Kanda could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Sakayanagi, who then revealed a mischievous grin, looking exactly like a little devil from a light novel.
So, Shuichi Kanda simply stopped making excuses.
"You're right, but that doesn't mean I have to date you, and dating me means you have to listen to me. That would be too difficult for you."
Just when everyone thought Sakayanagi would give up, she immediately responded, "What if I become obedient?"
However, Shuichi Kanda was already used to Sakayanagi today, so he wasn't stumped by the question again.
"We'll talk about that after you've done it. Besides, this is very important to you, so think it through before you answer," Shuichi Kanda smile. "By the way, your illness hasn't fully healed yet, so there are some things you should still be careful about."
After saying this, Shuichi Kanda turned around and waved goodbye to Sakayanagi.
He has already stated his conditions; whether or not he agrees is up to Sakayanagi. Moreover, the biggest obstacle for Sakayanagi Shuichi Kanda is not Shuichi Kanda, but Kamuro.
After all, Shuichi Kanda's personality was unrestrained, and Sakayanagi was indeed very cute. In order to ensure diversity in the backyard, Shuichi Kanda agreed.
Furthermore, Shuichi Kanda didn't necessarily want to smooth out Sakayanagi's rough edges; it's just that she seemed to have been a bit too aggressive in the past due to illness.
Shuichi Kanda speculated that she wanted to prove herself in other areas because of her lack of athletic ability, and it's also possible that she wanted to protect herself.
After all, she needs to use an aggressive outward appearance to show her strength, thereby making people overlook her weaknesses and thus achieving her goal of protecting herself.
Perhaps even Sakayanagi herself wasn't aware of this; she was simply doing it subconsciously.
But is that really the case?
Yes, that's it.
Sakayanagi's aggressiveness wasn't innate; she simply didn't want her father to worry about her, which is why she appeared so assertive.
Her obsession with defeating Ayanokoji, coupled with her previous desire to do so, made her appear somewhat paranoid.
But in reality, no matter how strong or mature Sakayanagi is, she is still just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
And she was a seventeen-year-old girl suffering from illness!
This is also the age when girls are most prone to daydreaming. In the past, they couldn't dream because of illness, but now it's different.
After regaining a relatively healthy body, Sakayanagi immediately wanted to unleash all the energy he had accumulated over the years.
The first thing she did was confess her feelings to Shuichi Kanda.
That's right. Although I really disliked this person before, he saved me like a prince charming when I was in the most danger!
Moreover, his recovery must have been due to something he did!
The fairy tale has become a reality, and even Sakayanagi is somewhat overwhelmed, which is why she succumbed to it in such a short time.
All the unpleasantness from the past has been completely forgotten.
After having dinner and resting for a while, Shuichi Kanda went to the public bath. After all, he had been busy all day, so taking a bath was perfectly reasonable.
After leisurely enjoying the large public bath for almost an hour, it was a little past nine o'clock. Shuichi Kanda tidied himself up, put on a yukata, and went to the hotel lobby.
Perhaps he had slept too much in the afternoon, so even though he felt a bit tired after eating and taking a bath, he didn't think he would be able to fall asleep.
In the lobby, Shuichi Kanda also saw his classmate Horikita seemingly choosing a souvenir, but Shuichi Kanda not disturb her and instead walked towards a massage chair on the side.
After scanning the QR code to pay, Shuichi Kanda leaned back in his chair and enjoyed the massage from the machine.
"Shuichi, you really have a lot of free time."
The voice in his ear made Shuichi Kanda open his eyes and see Ichinose wearing a yukata, with a rosy complexion and glowing skin.
"Honami," Shuichi Kanda said lazily, looking at the other person, "Did you just take a bath?"
"Yes." As she said this, Ichinose tossed her hair.
"You're supposed to be the key figure in your group, right? Is it alright for you not to act with your group members at this time?"
"Well, actually I came to thank you. If you hadn't arrived in time, Chihiro would probably be..."
"It's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore," Shuichi Kanda stopped Ichinose from continuing. "Besides, bringing this up again won't be good for anyone."
Regarding the kidnapping of students, it is naturally impossible to spread the news casually for the sake of social stability. Society does not want it, the school does not want it, and the kidnapped individuals themselves do not want it either.
After all, if things really escalate, it won't be good for anyone. Even the two people involved, Shiranami Chihiro, requested that the matter be kept confidential.
Therefore, the fewer people who know, the better. In fact, even Ichinose, Shuichi Kanda originally did not intend to say anything. After all, what's the point of saying anything? It's all in the past.
Telling her would only make her worry.
Ichinose nodded, then glanced at the massage chair next to Shuichi Kanda, hesitating whether to sit down and try it, since judging from Shuichi Kanda's expression, it should be very comfortable.
"Want to try it? It feels really comfortable. Honami, your shoulders must get sore easily, right?"
"Huh? How did Shuichi know?"
Ichinose blurted out in surprise.
Upon hearing Ichinose's words, Shuichi Kanda grinned mischievously.
"It's simple. After all, with those two big lumps of fat hanging down your front, it's only natural that it would put more strain on your shoulders."
Although she had been intimate with Shuichi Kanda many times, this was the first time she had flirted with him in public, so Ichinose blushed immediately.
"Shuichi, you idiot!"
