Yoshi+ Akihisa's Answer:
Kagawa, Tokushi+ma, Ehime, Kochi [3]
Teacher's comment:
Before I correct your answer, sensei wishes that you notice that you didn't answer the correct number of answers
”Aki, can I talk to you for a while?”
Right now, school is over Just as I plan to go ho special in mind, Minami called me
”Un, you need my help?”
”Instead of needing your help, it'swith you”
She see to say anything random
”Discuss? I'll listen if you like”
”Um, thanks I feel that Aki's thethis—about that, is there really no way to get Sakamoto involved?”
Speaking of Sakamoto, that's my best bad friend, the representative of class F—Sakamoto Yuuji
Seems like Minami believes that the teahouse would only be successful if Yuuji is the one leading class F by not trying to do this the foolhardy way, it seeirl
”M to be hardI just said it before, Yuuji won't care about anything that he's not interested in”
That guy probably doesn't even knohat the class would be doing
”However, if Aki is to ask hi?”
Minami stares at me with an expectant look
”Eh? I feel that even if I'e his answer—”
”No, this won't happen He will definitely accept Aki's request, because—”
”Even though we're together often, there isn't really much difference”
”Because both of you guys are in love, right?”
”I CAN'T GET MARRIED ANYMORE!!”
Why can you say such a thing with a straight face
”Who wants to be with that Yuuji in the first place? Even if that's the case, I'll prefer Hideyoshi+!”
”Ah, Akihisa?”
At thisbeside us, stopped his movements Oh dear? Is the situation someeird now?
”Thatabout that, I's, but even if you're to say that, there are many obstacles that can't be overcoe difference”
”HiHideyoshi+! It's not like that! You coure of speech! And the biggest obstacle between us isn't the age difference!!”
Hideyoshi+ blushes as he lowers his head What, what now! I' to think that it's fine if it's Hideyoshi+!
”Then, you mean that you can't convince Sakamoto as well?”
”Eh? Ah, mm, that's basically it”
I shook hts out of my mind, and turn to look at Minami
”Isn't there any e can do this? If this keeps up, the teahouse will be a failure”
Her eyes are looking down, her face looking glooet Yuuji involved in this
Once the teahouse succeeds, we can use the money to improve F class facilities, and lessen the burden on Himeji-san's body as well if possible, I'll also want this shop to succeed
”Oh yeah, what are you talking about? Seeing both of you looking so troubled, it should be serious”
”It's not really soement and class equipment”
”Aki, it's not really like this This is really serious”
”Eh, what's it about?”
Minami looks rather weird She's not really unhappy with the facilities, but for her to be this enthusiastic, what is she thinking?
”Though she told me not to tell this to anyone, but this situationcan you keep a secret about it?”
”Uot it”
I'm rather shocked by Minami's serious expression
”Actually, this has so to do with Himeji”
”Hi with Himeji-san?”
”Sheschool”
”Eh?”
Hi school? How is that possible! We're finally in the sa started Now she's about to transfer schools! I haven't created any wonderful memories with her, nor have I lay on Hi my ears Come to think of it, ill happen to this class? As the class idol, the whole class would be left to ruin if she's not around, and would be reduced to a hell full of violence and plundering The hairstyle of the whole class will become a Mohican that's of a late-century savior, after that, it'll be an all out bloody war for Hideyoshi+—
”Ugh, not good, Akihisa's losing it”
”That idiot! He really can't deal with this unexpected situation!”
”Akihisa, snap out of it!”
Who's shaking my shoulders so hard? Ah, it's Hideyoshi+ You're cute today
”Hideyoshi+even if I have a Mohaould you still like me?”
”How did you associate that with Himeji's transfer?”
”In a certain sense, this may be a rare talent”
Ack! daht too much!
”Mina school out of a sudden?”
”Exactly what I said If this keeps up, Hi schools”
”If this keeps up?”
This is really a strange way to say it I thought that in normal circumstances, once someone decides to transfer school, it's inevitable
”shi+ school unrelated to what you're talking about?”
Hideyoshi+ reveals a puzzled look
”It's not like this The reason why Hi school is 'the environment of F class'”
”In other words, it's not because of her parents' jobs—”
”Yeah, it's basically the facilities”
Hearing her say this, I suddenly realized it
Anyone can easily understand that the facilities of class F isn't suitable for Hiainst the school's h education, it's weird for Hih level, to have to endure this poor treatment We have only straw mats and cardboard boxes Even if she has to study with our class, there are only idiots all around us She hasn't done anything wrong herself, yet she's forced to study in this poor environment, any parent would want her to transfer schools
”And besides, Hiood”
”That's true, this is really troublesome”
Like what Mina Hih we do sweep the floor soht now, the conditions are okay, but inter coh the s, even if it's not Hi sick
”I see, so you want the teahouse to be successful so that we can upgrade the facilities?”
”He her dad's view of F class by winning the 'surade the facilities”
One of the reasons why Hi is because F class is full of idiots, so Himeji-san's actions aren't just for shoever, theis still Himeji-san's health If we don't find a way to ie their mindset
”Akiyou don't like the idea of Hiht?”
Minami looks at me with a tentative look This is really unexpected; do I really look that cold-blooded?
”Of course, I don't like it! Not just Himeji-san, even if it was Minami and Hideyoshi+ I would feel the same”
If it's because of family problems, then it can't be helped, I don't want to be separated from my friends because of this stupid reason
”Reallywell, I guess you're that kind of person”
Incidentally, if it's Yuuji, I won't even bother
”If so, we have to get Yuuji involved no matter what””
”That's right After hearing this, I can't stand around and remain silent”
”Then we better contact Yuuji”
I took out uy has his school bag in school even though he's not around, which means that he's still in school
Duludulu The phone chatter bell continues to ring on the phone
”hello—”
”Ah Yuuji, I got so I want to—”
”Akihisa? Good tih! SHOUKO!”
”Eh? Yuuji, what are you doing now?”
”da to you!”
”Yuuji? hello, hello—!”
The phone line was cut, leaving behind a 'du du du' sound
”What did Sakamoto say?”
”Eh, so with you'”
”What on earth does that mean?”
Mina at me with a 'you useless bum' expression, how rude!
”See pursued by Kirishi+ma Shouko Despite his outer looks, he's rather weak to the opposite gender”
Hideyoshi+ folds his arreement
Kirishi+ma-san is the school representative, jet-black hair and slender liirl However, for so with her, to fall for Yuuji like that
Um, why must Yuuji run around and hide? If it's an ordinary boy, they won't be pursued by her, but would pursue her instead Yuuji, to think that you would waste this opportunity!
”If so, it'll be hard for us to contact Yuuji”
”No, this may be our best opportunity”
”Eh? What does that mean?”
”In this current situation, it's the bestthe teahouse Mm, can both of you help out?”
”Well, there is no problembut do you knohere Sakamoto is?”
”No proble”
”Seem like you have a plan in mind”
”Well, most likely”
I reveal a cunning s both of them out of the classroom
”Oh my, Yuuji, what a coincidence to see you here”
”Can you telleach other in the girls' changing room?”
That's right Like what Yuuji said, this is the girls' changing roo inside the irls are not allowed to enter, and would use reverse psychology and hide inside places that guys are forbidden to enterit's just that I never expected myself to find him so easily
”What are you talking about, it's just a coincidence”
”Don't lie, as if you're supposed to be here”
Kacha—
The door is opened as soon as the sound is heard, a girl wearing PE attire is standing at the door
”Eruys the proble room, you know!”
”Oh my, Kinoshi+ta Yuuko-san, what a coincidence”
”OH, Hideyoshi+'s sister, niceyou here”
”Ah, yeah, what a coincidence”
I tried to let out a casual laugh Hmmm, this IS too coincidental
”SENSEI! THERE ARE PEEPING PERVERTS HERE!!”
”HURRY UP AND RUN, AKIHISA!!”
”Got it!”
We leaped out of the s rooet past this
”YOshi+ AND SAKAMOTO, YOU SAY? THOSE TWO AGAIN?”
”damn it, Yuuji! It's Ironman!”
”Anyway, let's run!”
Though we're wearing only slippers, we still continued to run The opponent is Ironht
”Found you! I'et away!”
The gruff voice can be heard fro up!
”Akihisa!”
Yuuji's voice came from behind His eyes are aimed at an openon the seconds level of the new cah there?
”OK!”
After receiving Yuuji's signal, I took off my coat as I ran At this moment, Yuuji starts to run past me
”There's no way out there! Give up and accept your supplementary lessons!”
”Iron closer and closer To be honest, I'm rather scared myself”
”Come on, Aki!”
Yuuji, as running in front of me, stops and turns towards me
”Got it!”
I jump onto the platfors his hands up, allowing et up to the second level easily
”Ugh, those idiots! Having such athletic abilities only in stupid events like this!”
Ignoring Ironot into the school compound, I lowered the coat that I just took off
”Whoosh!+”
This ti the rab my coat
”Ha!”
At this h the coat creates an irritating flapping sound, at least we et in safely
”YOshi+! SAKAMOTO!! I WON'T LET YOU GET AWAY TOMORROW!!”
Even if it's Iron is the sound of a defeated dog barking
”Sighnow our bad reputation has just went up again”
Wearing h This is too much
”I should be the troubled one If you weren't here, this wouldn't have happened
Yuuji acted as if he wasn't in the wrong
”What are you saying Aren't you the one in the wrong? To hide in the girls' changing room?”
It'll be alright if Yuuji were to just hide in a random classroom
”It, it can't be helped! It's Shouko we're talking about here! It's not like I can hide anywhere when it's her!”
Certainly, she does give the vibe that she'll enter aroom without any hesitation
”Co from Kirishi+ma-san?”
”She wanted o to her house”
Yuuji reveals an unhappy look What's so irritating about that?
”Fro envious about right? Is it to Kirishi+o in—”
”She wants to introduce me to her family”
”You're not going out with her yet, right?”
Maybe her emotions are a bit too ret has nothing to do hy I' for him!
”Then Yuuji, since you're in quite a fix, I got soood to say to you”
”Really? I'onna kill you if it's bad news”
””
Yuuji's serious tone makes me speechless momentarily
”Anyway, please use my phone”
I pull out my phone, presses Shouko's number and passes it to Yuuji
”Really, what sort of plan are you thinking of?”
Yuuji reveals a surprised look as he receives the phone and places it by his ear
”hello? Is it Sakamoto?”
”Oh shi+?”
”Wait a sec, I' over the phone”
”To who? hello—hey, hello hello? ”
From the sound of it, it seems like Minami has handed the phone over to the other person
”Yuuji, where are you right now?”
”Wrong number”
Such a scary split-second decision Not a lot of people in the world can i number'
”I'll kill you”
This phrase gives me an unprecedented chill down my spine
”No, cal bad to you”
”Help? Huht?”
Every time this sort of situation pops up, I'll have to rey, because his mind reacts extremely fast
”Really, you didn't have to do it in such a roundabout way If you just said that 'I want to do so for my beloved Himeji-san! Please help me!', I would have helped even if it's a hassle”
”Wha? I haven't even said such a word!”
”Ah—okay okay I know your request Guess I'll help you then”
Yuuji immediately puts on an enthusiastic expression Why is he always like this!
”Never mind Anyway, thanks for your help”
”No problem Come to think of it, are shi+mada and Shouko close?”
At thiseyes See why Kirishi+ether with Minami from F-class
”Un--you won't be angry after listening?”
”Idiot Since I've already agreed to help, there's no point in getting angry, right?”
That's true, Yuuji has agreed to help
