The Bun-haired Senior Is So Pitiful

Plans in place!

Ichinose, for your happiness, Chie is going all out!!!

However, the premise for the above scenario is that she can get the cup from Hoshino En's hand.

Whoosh--

Hoshino En immediately darted aside, avoiding her grasp; the water rippled slightly, but did not spill, remaining perfectly still.

Hoshinomiya Chie: "..."

"Huh? Hoshino -Chie's here. Aren't you going to bring me some water?"

"You?"

Hoshino En carried the water to Kushida Kikyo's side and placed the two glasses steadily on the desk in front of her. Then she turned to Hoshinomiya Chie, whom she had just passed by, and asked, puzzled.

"If Hoshinomiya-sensei wants some water, the Pantry is over there. You're able-bodied, you can go get some yourself. I just poured myself a cup and then poured one for Kushida who has difficulty walking. Don't overthink it."

Hoshinomiya Chie is looking for SHU group⊙~: uh≮>liu+":"..."

You & # #￥%@ #￥%...

"Here, stop grinning like an idiot, you silly goose."

Ignoring Hoshinomiya Chie, who seemed to have something to say, Hoshino En placed a glass of warm water in the hand that Kushida Kikyo was using to prop up her head, and then dragged a chair next to her. After making sure it wouldn't obstruct her movement of her thick leg, she sat down as well.

"This isn't my room, why are you so agitated?"

He held the ice pack for her with one hand, and with the other, he took a small sip of warm water from the cup.

"I... I'm not excited at all..."

Kushida Kikyo held the cup in both hands, sipping the warm water slowly. The warmth gradually eased her anxiety.

"That was just --"

"Just what? You've clearly relapsed into your old habits, and you've been putting on a brave face these past few days. Aren't you going to admit it?"

The facts were undeniable. Kushida Kikyo pouted and accepted Hoshino En's lecture without complaint.

If he hadn't stopped her in time, she would have exploded again, especially in front of Class B's homeroom teacher, Hoshinomiya Chie, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable, as if she were looking at a strange mirror.

"Since your feet are like this, don't come to my room tonight; I'll go to yours, you need to cool down your temper."

"I see."

"Also, have Hoshinomiya-sensei give you a note to skip all your classes today. I'll carry you back to your dorm later, so you can rest well."

"Oh."

Hoshinomiya Chie: "..."

You're already at the point where you can go into each other's rooms, and you're still saying you two aren't in a relationship? Who the hell are you trying to fool!

9- Hoshino, you scumbag! You're just using this as a pretext to toy with the innocent and kind hearts of pure girls, aren't you?!

2. First Semester of Grade 1:

Chapter 107, Chapter 101: The shade of the trees in the afternoon, two people intertwined.

After Kushida Kikyo, Hoshino En took her back to her dormitory, and the morning was almost over.

After having lunch in the cafeteria, he sat alone under the shade of a tree behind the Special Building, the very place where he and Shiranami Chihiro had their secret rendezvous.

He put his hands behind his head, leaned against the tree trunk, and enjoyed a moment of peace.

After a morning of scorching heat, the ground temperature in S was slightly high, but the shade provided by the trees kept the temperature in the area much lower; a gentle breeze added to the coolness.

There are vending machines nearby that offer free water, so you can get immediate hydration if you're thirsty.

This place seems perfect for a nap...

Hoshino En narrowed her eyes, and the scene before her melted into a blurry golden halo.

"Ah, good day, Hoshino-kun."

But the dazed silence didn't last long; this tranquil sanctuary was soon shattered by a voice tinged with a wicked laugh.

A glimpse of white skin flashed through her golden eyelids.

"... It's Sakayanagi. Why are you alone again today?"

He didn't see Kamuro Masumi, who should have been following her, behind her.

Just like the last time we met, she was also with Ichinose alone.

"Where's Kamuro? Did you send her to buy food?"

"Why do you and Ichinose think like that? Am I the kind of person who treats classmates like servants?"

Hoshino En 'Sakayanagi Arisu question immediately dampened the spirits that had lifted after their chance encounter.

And why did you ask about Kamuro first? We haven't seen each other for a month, shouldn't you have shown concern for me first?

He did that to me last time... This heartless man!!

"Judging from your personality, what you said makes sense. You should be well aware of it yourself, right? You have a princess-like quality about you—[not treating others as human beings, and being able to order them around at will]."

"And even if you subjectively did give Kamuro a break, I doubt she would believe it herself. She's probably still doing the tasks you casually mentioned, right? So objectively speaking, she's still being bossed around by you, isn't she?"

"By the way, have you had lunch? If not, oh well~~~"

Hoshino En waved to her and couldn't help but yawn—he was genuinely feeling sleepy, caught up in the atmosphere.

Leaning on her cane, Sakayanagi Arisu Hoshino En's lead and limped over to him. (0.5◇)

"Of course I've already eaten. It's really just a coincidence that I met you here... What do you want?"

But looking at his starry eyes, hidden beneath his eyelashes, she suddenly seemed to sense something, and a flicker of excitement flashed in her eyes.

Every time Hoshino-kun tries to make a move, his eyes seem to flicker... What is he planning to do now?

Could it be... that he felt threatened by the joint exam his seniors took last month, and is now making a concerted effort?

That's wonderful!!

Sakayanagi Arisu guessed to herself, and presumptuously began to anticipate the most likely outcome.

If Hoshino-kun takes the initiative, she can seize the opportunity to strike and defeat him!

Although it's unfair to him who's still on the fringes of his class, society has always been unfair, and she should make good use of her advantages.

However, before she could come up with any evidence to support her guess, Hoshino En had already exerted her power as she had predicted.

He kicked Sakayanagi Arisu's beloved Cane. The lateral force and the leverage effect caused her Cane to slip from her hand and fly into the air while spinning. Sakayanagi Arisu, having lost her support, fell forward due to the momentum of her previous movement and crashed straight into Hoshino En.

Given her frail condition, if she were to fall directly to the ground, she might suffer some injuries, so Hoshino En Enishi naturally wouldn't allow that to happen.

So, as Sakayanagi Arisu fell forward, he immediately opened his arms and embraced her petite figure.

"Hoshino- Hoshino-kun???"

The petite girl being hugged never expected her partner to exert so much force.

Although it's more like an affectionate gesture than an attack... Oh dear, Hoshino-kun is so enthusiastic today!!

Oh no, my lips are about to curl into a smile!! That expression will definitely look weird...

No, no, I have to hold back. I have to be reserved. A lady has to act like a lady. I must put on appropriate resistance to weaken my willpower.

So, the pure white-clad girl blushed and stammered softly.

"Um... Hoshino-kun, we're still outside, people will see us..."

No way! What am I saying?! Doesn't this mean "it's okay to do it where no one's around"?? Isn't that even weirder??

"It's okay, there are no security cameras here, and no one will be bored enough to wander around here. Also, you smell so good today, did you use a new shower gel?"

At first, Hoshino En simply wanted to test the waters: because of Karuizawa Kei's experience, he realized that he might have been overthinking things. Those who showed him kindness, such as Sakayanagi Arisu and Shiina Hiyori... after all, they were just high school students living in an ivory tower. The thoughts they expressed were probably their true thoughts, and they didn't have any other motives behind them.

So he tried greeting Sakayanagi Arisu, and to his Arisu, the other party actually came over without any warning, which really opened his eyes.

But when he got closer, Hoshino En could smell a familiar scent on her, a scent exactly like the shower gel he used, a fragrance he really liked.

Moreover, the fragrance also contained a scent unique to girls. He lost control slightly and made his move, which led to the situation we see now.

His question was very direct, even offensive to women, but seeing that he showed unusual interest, Sakayanagi Arisu responded positively.

"No, I just got a new conditioner. It's a new one from Kamuro, and I borrowed a little bit... How is it?"

It's true that [it's Kamuro Masumi's conditioner]. Because Sakayanagi Arisu's short hair doesn't need much conditioner, she hasn't even finished her previous bottle yet; while Kamuro Masumi's long hair uses a lot more, and after two months, her previous bottle was just finished.

But the claim that "[it's a new one that Kamuro bought]" was a lie. Kamuro Masumi's new conditioner was actually picked out by Sakayanagi Arisu and given to her. After that day, she analyzed Hoshino En's abnormal behavior and identified "[fragrance]" as the second influencing factor.

So after giving Kamuro Masumi the conditioner, she would borrow it from Kamuro Masumi the day before each possible encounter with Hoshino En, to see if the scent would have any effect on Hoshino En.

Searching for: 2□ Temple"≯.>-ˇ∮(Private Star Noyuan's location) Kamuro Masumi sneezed.

As for the results now... the effect is surprisingly good?

Seeing Sakayanagi Arisu's generosity, Hoshino En didn't hold back either.

Besides, although it's a bit perverted, there are no outsiders here.

So he pressed his cheek against the girl's cheek, put his nose behind her ear, and gently sniffed her hair.

Huff~ Huff~

This smell... oh no, it's making my mouth water.

He couldn't resist kissing the other person's earlobe.

"Thank you for the treat, it was wonderful!"

"Mmm~"

The silver-white girl's cheeks flushed crimson instantly, and she buried her face entirely in the man's arms, as if to escape the gaze of others.

But her actions were tantamount to throwing herself into the lion's den.

"Sakayanagi, is that okay? Just a little bit."

This is the third time. Hoshino En is no longer the inexperienced greenhorn he was last month; he now knows to ask for the opinions of those involved.

His deliberately adjusted, aggressive voice rang in Sakayanagi Arisu's ears, his warm breath hitting her even hotter earlobes, causing her to gasp.

The contrast instantly drained her strength, and she collapsed into the other person's arms.

"Be gentle, don't leave marks like last time... um~"

Her response was a gentle, pursuing kiss from Hoshino En.

His cheeks moved back and forth across her neck, his lips and tongue working together: it was less of a kiss and more of a gentle licking of her skin.

The ticklish sensation made the girl let out a soft moan, but she didn't expect that the man's fingers were already waiting at her lips—the moment she opened her tender lips, his spearhead immediately launched its attack.

Two handsome soldiers bypassed the pristine white fortress and stormed into the enemy's outpost. Their bodies were soaked with the enemy's blood, but they paid no heed and, as if entering an empty field, seized the enemy's flag used to issue orders and boost morale.

However, instead of rushing to seize the bright red flag for themselves, they grabbed the flag with both hands and waved it wildly.

Lu Lingqi naturally wouldn't just give up so easily. It tried to resist, but under their nimble finger techniques, it could only retreat step by step, eventually transforming into their shape and becoming their servant.

But this did not mean it was about to give up: it sent a message to its headquarters, hoping to get support from headquarters.

However, the [support] request from headquarters was strikingly similar to the enemy's order, which completely shattered Lingqi's hopes—it was hopeless. Even headquarters was now in the enemy's shape, so what was the point of struggling?!

Her neck was filled with the other's warm breath, and her mouth, which had been making sounds on its own, was now occupied. Being soothed like this, Sakayanagi Arisu suddenly felt a warm sensation in her abdomen.

She grabbed the placket of Hoshino En's coat, her fingers gradually tightening their grip.

It seems something... is about to happen.

"Mmm~~~~~"

The Cane, which had been knocked away and flown high into the air, spun three and a half times in the air before landing smoothly at the edge of the tree's shade.

Beside it, an inconspicuous little flower was accidentally injured by its falling trajectory; its petals were scattered, revealing the delicate heart inside; the slender stem was also slightly bent by the impact.

But the flower would not yield to the hard external object; it quickly straightened its back again, as if to say that it was tenacious.

However, without the protection of the petals, the morning dew that had gathered at the center of the flower was not so lucky—as the flower stood upright again, it unconsciously splashed outwards from the center, leaving wet spots on the Cane beside it.
