Asuna Yuuki.
This name sounded like a beauty just by hearing it.
When did the man before her eyes get to know such a beautiful girl?
Haruno complained incessantly in her heart.
Lin Ye recalled the relevant information about Asuna Yuuki from the original work. Because it was from a long time ago, many detailed pieces of information were unclear to him, somewhat blurry.
More of the Sword Art Online plot took place inside the game; there wasn't particularly much information involving reality.
Among the numerous viewers, except for extremely passionate fans who would actively understand every aspect of the characters, most viewers just watched the anime and that was it. They wouldn't pursue and supplement information regarding the work's worldview, background settings, and so on.
And Lin Ye belonged to the latter.
But even as the latter, there was some information he could use.
"She should be from Tokyo. Look in Tokyo first; if she's not there, look in Kyoto."
"Her family background should be decent; they might run a company."
Whether this point was the same as the original work remained largely uncertain, but Lin Ye said it first anyway.
"Her age should be around sixteen... no, in the range of fourteen to twenty years old."
Asuna's image in the game was that of a young girl, but there was no guarantee that the Strange Game hadn't significantly adjusted the character image to conceal her true self.
"As for hair color, it should be chestnut or orange. That's roughly all the usable information."
After speaking,
Lin Ye's gaze fell upon the black short-haired woman beside him.
At this moment, Haruno had an attitude of looking at a scumbag with disgust. Her right hand had grasped her phone at some point. The moment their gazes met, she shook her phone, her red lips moving slowly as she spoke.
"Lin-kun, it's against the law."
"..."
"Middle school students are really a no-go. Even if you're desperate, you can't choose a middle school student!"
Saying this, Haruno leaned in closer, exhaling a fragrance like orchids. "Isn't a mature big sister good?"
"A mature big sister is very good, but you are not."
"Tsk... Heartbroken."
She wiped the corner of her eye. "You just confirmed a relationship with Yukino, yet you ask me, this older sister, to help you find another woman. Don't you think this behavior of yours is quite bad?"
"Is it?"
"Yes. You haven't considered Yukino's feelings at all. If she knew, she would be sad."
"It's fine as long as she doesn't know. I believe Miss Haruno will definitely keep the secret for me."
"What if I refuse!"
"Then let her be sad."
You really are direct!
Do you not care at all?
"Besides, if she gets sad, doesn't that fit exactly with what you want, Miss Haruno? She will feel that I am not a suitable person, and then she will end her relationship with me."
"You're willing to let go?"
"If I'm not willing, there's no helping it, is there? This is the future we both need to face in our mutual contact and understanding. This process won't be smooth sailing. Either I or she can end the communication and contact when we feel it's inappropriate, stopping this relationship."
"Scumbag. To actually not be single-minded toward Yukino."
Haruno hmphed, seemingly dissatisfied with Lin Ye's attitude.
"Isn't this something known from the beginning? Moreover, Miss Haruno clearly hopes I stay away from your dear sister."
"But this isn't the method I hoped for."
Although knowing Lin Ye wouldn't force Yukino let her heave a small sigh of relief, Lin Ye's attitude of 'not attaching great importance' to Yukino made her somewhat unhappy.
This cute sister of hers—who knows how many men had liked and thought about her since childhood. Now she was delivered right in front of Lin Ye, and even voluntarily expressed she would 'have contact and communication with Lin Ye with marriage as the premise to understand each other,' yet this fellow Lin Ye had this attitude.
As the older sister, she felt injustice for her sister.
"I'll trouble you with these two matters. Contact me promptly if there is news."
"Mm."
Haruno gave a hum. "It needs time. I also can't guarantee a one hundred percent find."
"Just do your best."
Lin Ye didn't force it.
At worst, he would look forward to meeting again in the Strange Game next time.
At that time, he definitely had to ask Asuna clearly for her contact information and location.
"Lin-kun, look, I'm helping you find someone. Shouldn't you reveal to me your relationship with this girl!"
Haruno had already guessed where Lin Ye knew her from.
Met within an instance mission of the Strange Game.
Otherwise, the information Lin Ye provided wouldn't be this vague.
"Friends, I guess!"
"Just that? Is there no ambiguous relationship?"
"There is. We agreed that if it works out after meeting offline, we can try dating."
Haruno was speechless.
Can one gain a player's favor just by participating in a Strange Game once?
Yukino, it seems you are going to have one more love rival.
But for her, this was a good thing.
"I will do my best to help you find her as soon as possible. Just wait for my good news!"
This way, she could also let Yukino leave Lin Ye earlier and return to the life and studies that belonged to Yukino herself earlier.
"The meaning of your words makes it sound like you didn't plan to look seriously before."
"How could that be!"
Amidst a brilliant smile, Haruno asked, "Last question, is she pretty?"
"Prettier than you."
Haruno gritted her teeth.
"What about compared to Yukino!"
"Both are prettier than you."
"I'll bite you to death."
Haruno lunged directly, opening her mouth to take a fierce bite on Lin Ye's shoulder.
Lin Ye raised his hand and slapped Haruno's buttocks heavily, emitting a crisp smack sound.
"Wuu wuu..."
But she still lunged onto Lin Ye and bit down. However, separated by clothes, Lin Ye didn't feel anything.
"Your mom is here."
"Hehe."
She believes that?
How could she possibly believe that?
Haruno remained motionless, even entangling herself tighter.
"Haruno."
But in the next second, a calm female voice cut through the courtyard and entered her ears. Haruno trembled all over, a shiver running through her.
Shit.
She really came!
Haruno stood up slowly, her body stiff. She glanced and saw her mother's figure; that gloomy appearance, as if coming from an abyss, made her feel terrible all over.
Clack clack...
The wooden clogs made crisp sounds stepping on the cobblestones.
Mother Yukinoshita walked over.
Haruno was shivering.
Such an intimate scene between her and Lin Ye in private was seen by Mother. What to do!
Even as a social expert, Haruno didn't know how she should respond.
Facing Mother Yukinoshita, she was inherently in a weak position.
"Sorry, Auntie. Just now I made a bet with Miss Haruno and cracked a joke. I didn't expect Miss Haruno to take it seriously and actually hug me."
Haruno was astonished. Lin Ye was actually explaining for her, taking the responsibility!
"..."
Mother Yukinoshita glanced at this eldest daughter of hers. Dressed in a kimono, she appeared full of imposing manner at this moment. "Haruno, is that so?"
"Mother, I apologize. I lost my manners. It won't happen in the future."
Haruno immediately lowered her head to apologize.
She was very certain Mother didn't believe it at all. This was just giving her a way out, letting this matter pass like this.
"Haruno, you cannot lose your manners. You are a daughter of the Yukinoshita family and will inherit the Yukinoshita family in the future. Lin-kun will very likely become Yukino's husband in the future, which means your brother-in-law. You need to pay attention to propriety and distance."
This reminder was already very obvious.
"I understand, Mother."
"I let Lin-kun see a joke."
"You are too polite. It was my problem. The content of the bet shouldn't have involved physical contact. It is my problem."
Mother Yukinoshita looked at her eldest daughter and continued, "Go back and rest early!"
"Mm."
Mother Yukinoshita greeted Lin Ye, then left immediately.
After a good while, Haruno let out a long breath. "Lin-kun, you're so good! To actually help me out of a predicament."
"You are my collaborator. If I don't help you, who do I help?"
"My heart moved. How about you marry me! Don't be with Yukino anymore. I understand the human heart better than Yukino."
Lin Ye raised his hand and pointed, causing Haruno's face to instantly turn pale. She looked over carefully in fright, but saw nothing.
"A bird flew past."
"..."
This was absolutely targeting her on purpose, wanting to see her ugly, frightened side!
"Lin-kun, I want to bite you to death."
"If you aren't afraid of your mother coming again, go ahead and bite."
Lin Ye even actively extended his hand, signaling Haruno to bite as she pleased.
Haruno looked at it, raised her hand to hold Lin Ye's hand, then opened her mouth, revealing her teeth, and finally... licked it.
That touch of softness instantly made Lin Ye's heart tremble subconsciously.
This chick doesn't play by the rules either!
"Hahaha..."
Haruno laughed out loud. "I'm leaving. Tonight I'll sleep holding Yukino. Envy you to death."
"Goodnight!"
Seemingly deeply afraid Lin Ye would give her buttocks another ruthless smack, Haruno immediately dropped a sentence and ran away. Her figure quickly disappeared at the corner of the backyard.
Only Lin Ye was left standing in place.
He gazed at the profound starry sky overhead. The night breeze blew past, brushing over his skin. He slowly exhaled a breath.
Invited to come here, the only thing that exceeded his expectations was Yukino Yukinoshita's answer and choice.
"Go back, wash up, and sleep!"
After looking around to confirm the direction, Lin Ye walked toward the guest bedroom.
A moment later, just as he turned the corridor corner, he saw a servant of the Yukinoshita residence waiting in front of his bedroom door.
"Hello, Mr. Lin!"
After noticing Lin Ye, she immediately greeted him respectfully. "Will you be taking a bath tonight? If you are taking a bath, I will lead the way for you."
"Sure."
"This way."
The female servant led the way in front and soon brought Lin Ye to a dedicated shower room.
"Mr. Lin, this is for clothes. Please place the clothes you change out of here. I will wash and dry them, and place them at your door before you wake up tomorrow morning."
The female servant reached out and pointed to the white laundry basket at the entrance.
"Okay, trouble you."
Lin Ye did not refuse.
"You are too polite."
She left respectfully first.
Lin Ye took off his outer coat, trousers, and other clothes, placed them in the laundry basket, and began to shower.
Splash...
Hot water flowed down continuously. The shower room was filled with white, misty steam.
Soon, Lin Ye soaked into the bath. When the warm water wrapped around his whole body, he couldn't help but exhale a breath.
"This feels really nice."
The cells of his whole body seemed to be cheering.
A sound came from outside; that was the sound of clothes being taken away.
"The Yukinoshita family's service is thorough. If there were a massage too..."
"Mr. Lin, I wonder if you need a back scrub."
Lin Ye: ???
Not a massage, but a back scrub.
This is too thorough.
"No need."
Lin Ye refused.
"I understand."
The female servant left carrying the laundry basket.
Lin Ye continued soaking comfortably, enjoying the leisure and carefreeness of this moment.
...
On the other side,
The female servant arrived at the residence's laundry room carrying the laundry basket.
She took out the clothes placed inside.
Only a coat and a T-shirt.
She was already used to it too, only... soon, her expression changed.
From the upper pocket of the clothes, she clearly took out an item that did not belong to a male.
"This..."
This wasn't a question of washing or not anymore.
After a brief thought, the female servant went to the side of the current head of the Yukinoshita family, Fumino Yukinoshita.
"What is the matter?"
She looked at this female servant who had rolled up her sleeves.
"Madam, it is like this."
She lowered her head and reported this matter.
"Just pretend you saw nothing."
"Understood, Madam."
The female servant left.
Mother Yukinoshita's aura became increasingly cold.
"It should be something that happened at that time!"
Her head hurt.
This eldest daughter of hers was also worrying now. Knowing clearly what her thoughts were, and now that Yukino's relationship was even confirmed, she as the older sister actually didn't have a shred of restraint and even played directly in the backyard?
If this were bumped into by a servant, where would the Yukinoshita family's face be?
"Looks like I must have a good chat with Haruno too. I absolutely cannot continue to give her free rein."
Mother Yukinoshita could no longer trust Haruno like in the past.
...
Meanwhile, Haruno knocked open her sister's door and successfully entered her sister's bedroom.
"Yukino, where is Lin-kun! Why isn't he here?"
She looked around, and even deliberately lay down to look under the bed and opened the wardrobe, seemingly suspecting Lin Ye was here.
"He is in his own room."
"Eh, you are quasi-fiancés already. Shouldn't you be in the same bedroom, sleeping together?"
Haruno blinked, speaking with a brilliant smile.
"Only quasi-fiancés, not even fiancés."
"Wow, so you can sleep together as long as you become fiancés? I really envy Lin Ye. If Lin-kun knew this news, he'd probably be too excited to sleep!"
He knew.
And he expressed lack of interest.
Although, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't be sure if Lin Ye truly had no interest or if it was a deliberate performance.
"Speak, Sister. What is the matter coming to find me here? If there is nothing, please go back! I want to rest."
Yukino had already finished washing and bathing, and drowsiness had begun to emerge.
She was wearing loose beige pajamas at this moment. Her black long hair was scattered like a waterfall, and a pair of navy blue eyes were gazing at this sister of hers who had arrived.
"So cold! Sister is worried Lin-kun will night-raid Yukino, so I plan to sleep with Yukino. This way I can protect Yukino well. In a critical moment, I, the older sister, decide to sacrifice myself to protect Yukino's safety."
After hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita only felt helplessness. "He won't."
"So trusting of Lin-kun?"
"I still have a certain understanding of his character. He is a man who can be trusted."
"Wow! Looks like some things I don't know happened between Yukino and Lin-kun too. So envious!"
Haruno had a look full of envy.
"Sister, I'm sleepy."
"I know, I know. I just wanted to come ask Yukino why you didn't refuse, and instead proposed the suggestion of 'contact and communication.'"
She had already obtained Lin Ye's answer.
Now she came to ask for her sister Yukino's answer.
"I already said it at the dinner table."
"I am your sister. Could I not guess that you definitely concealed reasons you didn't say? If Yukino doesn't say, I'm staying here tonight and not going back."
After speaking,
Haruno sat down on the bed with a plop, staring at Yukino with a smile, waiting for her sister's answer.
The black long-haired girl revealed a trace of helplessness.
"Mother spoke to me before."
Yukino recounted the matter of Mother finding her for a talk last weekend, which was the two days Haruno and Lin Ye went to Macao.
"I haven't been in love. I also don't know how to get along with a male of the same age. I lack experience in this aspect."
"At dinner tonight, Father spoke about being rejected during his high school days. I felt a bit uncomfortable. Mother also hoped I could try."
"So I thought about trying! Giving him a chance, and also giving myself a chance. Even if the contact isn't suitable, we can end it."
She spoke another reason.
This was a point she hadn't told Lin Ye.
"Yukino also wants to fall in love."
"..."
She wanted to refute—subconsciously wanted to refute—but she endured it. "Sister, if you really want to think so, that's fine too."
"Stubborn Yukino."
Yukino Yukinoshita bit her lip and said nothing.
"Alright, I know your thoughts. I was worried you made this decision constrained by the pressure and thoughts of our parents. Since it's not, I am reassured too."
Haruno stood up and walked to her sister. "In the blink of an eye, Yukino has grown into a graceful young lady. In another two years, Yukino will probably be getting married."
"Sister, you will definitely be earlier than me."
"Haha, who knows! Interact and communicate well with Lin-kun! If it's not suitable, forget it. I will help with Father and Mother's side."
"Mm."
"Yukino in a kimono today was so beautiful. Pity Yukino isn't wearing it now, otherwise I would have to give you a good hug."
Saying this, she hugged her sister who was wearing pajamas. "Yukino, goodnight."
"Goodnight."
Before letting go, Haruno took a deep breath.
Yukino was already accustomed to it.
She watched Haruno leave and close the door, only retracting her gaze after a long time.
There was a question she wanted to ask her sister, but in the end, she didn't ask it.
The girl who got into bed didn't fall asleep for a long time. A question was still troubling her.
Why did Father and Mother promote the engagement between her and Lin Ye so extremely?
This absolutely couldn't be merely because Lin Ye saved her.
This grace wasn't enough to make her parents go to this extent.
So, there must be a key piece of information hidden in this that she didn't know and hadn't grasped yet.
"Lin Ye, what secret do you actually have?"
Sighing lightly, she closed her eyes.
...
Haruno returned to her room. Facing her mother standing in her room, she was shocked.
Mother came over specially; there must be something big.
"Haruno, you disappoint me very much."
Haruno was sluggish.
After knowing the reason, Haruno cried out her innocence.
She was pitted by Lin Ye!
...
...
April 28th, Sunday.
Lin Ye woke up early.
He fumbled for his phone immediately and tapped the screen.
There was a message from Ai Hoshino—asking him when he would arrive in Tokyo.
Lin Ye looked at the time, calculated briefly, and told Ai Hoshino he would arrive in Akihabara around 10:30.
A few minutes later, Lin Ye got out of bed.
In the laundry basket outside the door, the clothes he had changed out of were folded neatly.
Lin Ye bent down to take them out and could still smell the faint scent of laundry detergent.
In a short while, Lin Ye changed into his clothes.
But as he reached into his upper pocket, the tactile sensation from his fingers instantly made him realize something.
"Done for."
He forgot to return the panties he got from Ren Nanase yesterday to the girl. He not only brought them to the Yukinoshita residence but even let the Yukinoshita servant wash them.
"They probably know, right!"
The female servant kept the secret for him after discovering it?
No, Lin Ye didn't think there was this possibility.
"I'm going to be treated as a pervert."
Lin Ye was a bit awkward, but he adjusted his mindset quickly and accepted this fact.
"The thing has already happened; I can only accept it. Focus on having a thick face and pretending nothing happened."
Breakfast.
Father Yukinoshita had already gone out.
Mother Yukinoshita changed into a new kimono today, a cyan kimono. She lacked a bit of sternness and had a bit more vitality; her temperament was much softer.
Yukino changed into loose black leisure clothes. The slim-fit trousers couldn't conceal her slender figure.
And Haruno was very simple: a T-shirt plus a blue jacket, highlighting youthful vitality. If one said this was a high school student, Lin Ye felt people would believe it.
However, today, Lin Ye keenly felt that Haruno's eyes were filled with a strong aura of resentment, as if he had done something to let her down.
"Lin-kun, you have your own arrangements, so I won't persuade you to stay another day,"
Mother Yukinoshita smiled. "Come visit home again next time."
"Thank you. If there is time, I will come."
Lin Ye bid farewell to Mother Yukinoshita.
However, after getting into the Yukinoshita family's private car, he discovered that Yukino Yukinoshita also got in the car.
"Yukinoshita, you are..."
"Returning to the apartment."
Yukinoshita replied.
"Oh."
"Where did you think I was going?"
"I thought you planned to go to Tokyo with me to see Mai!"
"That works too. I have no arrangements today."
She seemed to be waiting for this sentence from Lin Ye.
Facing the girl's answer, Lin Ye refused decisively. "No need, won't trouble you to travel long distances to Tokyo with me."
"No trouble."
Yukino Yukinoshita gazed at him.
She had heard 'Mai Sakurajima' from Lin Ye's mouth more than once.
She had seen that big star on TV and watched the TV dramas she starred in, but there was always a gap between the feeling across the screen and meeting the real person in reality.
But Lin Ye still declined politely.
At this point, Yukino didn't continue to force it.
"Yamada-san, go to Yukinoshita's apartment first, then send me to Chiba Station!"
"Okay."
The black sedan drove smoothly.
Twenty minutes later,
Yukinoshita opened the car door and got off. "Goodbye."
She actively greeted Lin Ye and parted ways once again.
"Goodbye."
Lin Ye replied.
Only when the black sedan disappeared at the end of her vision did the black long-haired girl slowly retract her gaze.
"Mai Sakurajima."
She murmured a sentence, turned around, and stepped into the apartment building.
It wasn't that Yukinoshita hadn't considered following him to Tokyo alone, but in the end, she decided to forget it.
Secretly following Lin Ye to Tokyo—what kind of thing would that be called?
...
After Lin Ye arrived at Chiba Station, he took the train to Tokyo. After arriving in Tokyo, he transferred to reach Akihabara Station.
10:20 AM.
He arrived at the meeting point with Ai Hoshino.
"Not here yet?"
Scanning around, Lin Ye didn't see the girl's figure, so he leaned back and waited.
Thump thump thump...
The sound of quick running footsteps rang out. From far to near. Lin Ye looked up, and a familiar petite figure entered his field of vision.
The girl wore a loose blue tracksuit. The black pleated skirt paired with white silk stockings revealed a touch of purity and cuteness instead.
And the most eye-catching thing was that the girl wore a baseball cap and a mask, concealing most of her face.
"Yo, the big idol is here?"
"Shh, Lin-kun, a bit quieter."
She trotted to Lin Ye's front and immediately made a shushing gesture.
"Haha, dressed up like this to go out, looks like Ai's fame is getting higher and higher."
"That... that's not it yet. But there are a few more fans in Akihabara. It would be bad if I were seen."
"True! If fans saw Ai-chan together with me, a man from who knows where, they would definitely die of anger."
Lin Ye shrugged. The self-deprecating remark made Ai Hoshino explain hurriedly, "Not at all! Lin-kun, don't say that about yourself. Lin-kun is a very good and very amazing man in my eyes."
She racked her brains, encouraging him with all her might.
"Haha, joking. At this hour, let's go eat lunch together first!"
"Mm, in the afternoon I'll take Lin-kun to the filming set on Mai's side."
"Okay."
Lin Ye and Ai Hoshino met again after half a month.
The purple long-haired girl walked by Lin Ye's side, her eyes always looking toward the man beside her. "Lin-kun, um... how was the matter the night before yesterday?"
She was finding a topic, asking about the Strange Game.
"No big problems."
"Mhm, if it's Lin-kun, you can definitely clear it easily."
For Lin Ye's superpowers, Ai Hoshino had a deep memory.
Time Stop superpower—how could he possibly fail to clear a Strange instance!
"For lunch, want to go to a maid cafe?"
But Lin Ye refused. "After separating from you before, I went to a maid cafe in Akihabara alone. How should I put it! The atmosphere was there, but the taste was indeed just so-so. However, if Ai-chan wants to go, I don't have a problem either."
"No, no, I was thinking Lin-kun might want to go sit in a maid cafe and taste the omurice."
Since Lin Ye had no interest, Ai Hoshino naturally had no idea.
"Let's go over there. A ramen shop three hundred meters away. A popular noodle restaurant in Akihabara; quite a few celebrities have gone to eat there."
"Okay."
After going, Lin Ye discovered there were really quite a few people.
However, the line progressed quite fast. Half an hour later, it was Lin Ye and the other's turn.
When the ramen was served, Lin Ye tasted it. The flavor was indeed somewhat distinctive. In this bowl of seafood noodles, the freshness of the seafood was fully integrated into the soup.
Every mouthful, one could feel the aura of the ocean.
And the noodles were very chewy and firm. These were definitely not machine-made noodles, but hand-pulled noodles by the chef.
"Tastes good."
"Right, right! Hehe."
Ai Hoshino smiled brilliantly with happiness.
Her joy was very simple: just that the thing she liked received Lin Ye's acknowledgment and praise.
"At two in the afternoon, Mai's crew will start filming. Before that, where does Lin-kun want to stroll in Akihabara?"
She had time.
However, before four o'clock, she needed to return to conduct the final rehearsal for tonight's performance, ensuring her performance on stage.
Originally, she definitely couldn't have succeeded in asking for leave today. It was only after she begged Mr. Saito multiple times and expressed it would absolutely not affect the performance that she obtained today's free time.
She wanted to spend these few hours of coexisting time with Lin Ye.
"Anything is fine. Ai-chan, you decide!"
"Mhm mhm mhm."
But Ai Hoshino suddenly noticed that Lin Ye's line of sight was looking toward a spot, watching continuously.
She turned her head to look and was instantly stunned.
A black long-haired girl with a fine figure was holding a tray, seemingly looking for a suitable seat.
She wore large sunglasses, concealing her face, but the exquisite chin revealed also indicated her peerless beauty.
But Ai Hoshino recognized her.
That was... Mai Sakurajima!
Mai Sakurajima actually came to this noodle shop to eat too!
"Ai-chan, call her over."
Under Lin Ye's reminder, Ai Hoshino subconsciously waved to greet her. In fact, she was a little unwilling, but since Lin Ye had said it, she could only accept it.
"Over here, you can sit here."
The black long-haired girl looked over following the voice. Although there was a male, thinking that a girl was present, she carried the tray to the seat.
"Thank you."
She actively thanked them.
"Sakurajima... Miss Mai?"
The black long-haired girl's movements froze.
She lifted her eyes and looked through the sunglasses at the man sitting in front of her, then looked toward the cute girl beside him.
"Hello. Can you keep it a secret for me? As thanks, I can give you an autograph."
Compared to Ai Hoshino, Mai Sakurajima's fame was much greater.
If her identity were exposed here, she wouldn't be able to leave for a while.
Seeing Lin Ye didn't answer for a long time, Mai Sakurajima said again, "I can take a photo with you, but you cannot post the photo to social networks. Is that okay?"
"Deal."
Ai Hoshino bit her lip, unhappy.
She hadn't even taken a photo with Lin Ye.
Clearly, she knew Lin Ye first, stayed in a hotel overnight first, and forged a deep friendship, but why, why was Mai Sakurajima first!
Lin Ye looked at the girl in front of him eating noodles in small mouthfuls, his mood quite good.
Coming to eat noodles and running into Mai Sakurajima arriving in private clothes was truly a coincidence.
"Senpai, can I ask you a question?"
Senpai? Calling me?
"Are you also a student of Minegahara High School?"
"No, but I feel calling you Senpai is very suitable."
"What year are you?"
"High school second year."
"I am also second year."
She said calmly, "We are classmates of the same grade."
"Senpai, can I? Ask you a question."
Mai Sakurajima was a bit helpless. "I can't guarantee I will definitely answer you."
She had some guesses. After all, after becoming a celebrity, many, many people were extremely gossipy about her.
"Recently, has Senpai encountered any special strange matters?"
One sentence made Mai Sakurajima stunned.
She lifted her eyes and looked blankly at the man before her, suspecting for a time whether the man before her had stalked her.
Otherwise, how could he possibly ask this question?
