Chapter 11: Alice-chan’s Research

—-荒川功樹　視点—-

—-Arakawa Kouki’s Perspective—-

「What should I do for a research subject…」(Alice)

So bloay by a ballisticin the acade

「I’ve decided」(Saitou)

Saitou-kun as greedily devouring his donburi bowl attempted to reply to Alice-chan,but it was in vain(Fraiziar: She wasn’t listening I think)

Now that youabout how each person will perforularly

It’s got nothing to do with h…

I wanted to try researching the new metals I saw back at the research facility, but I don’t have access to the funding or facilities like they do

In the first place, when I consulted the academy director about the matter of the studies, she said with a frantic expression 『That’s unnecessary!』

But anyways, Alice-chan’s research huh?

「You are good with pharht? So why not do that?」(Kouki)

When I said that, for so at me with a Jiiiーー

Wait, no, if you stare atweird For now I’ll just avert my eyes since I’m unsure what to do

「Would you help me?」(Alice)

How could I say no when you’re looking at ht, I’ll help you, and Saitou-kun will also help with all his strength too

Hearing me say that, Alice-chan happily filled in the research subject field on my printout

Well, for so 『My research ti but I’m sure he’s happy to be of help to Alice-chan

Even though the space beneath your nose is lengthening, It’s my pleasure (Fraiziar: Apparently, this phrase “the space beneath your nose is lengthening” (鼻の下を伸ばす)　is a japanese idio about sex/ecchi things”)

「For now, I guess I’ll take a look at is like antibiotics」(Alice)

H e already have huh…If it’s that then I should be able to do soly easily

But hoould we test its effectiveness?

Even if mother somehoere to conveniently come doith a summer cold, there’s no way I could afford to inject such a new drug into her body! If Saitou-kun is byto become a test subject but…

you couldn’t be thinking of testing it on yourself!? If so, then I strongly disagree

I asked her about my concerns

「What about test subjects? Would Saitou-kun be unreasonable?」(Kouki)

「Fuhi! hy did it end up being ME doing it?… but if it’s for Alice-chan’s sake I’ll do my best!」(Saitou)

Alice-chan went 『ah…』, stiffening up

Saitou-kun, I don’t think it’s right for you to risk your life for a Good Impression Point-Up you know!

「Could we get someone like Arakawa-kun’s mother to test it on some viral samples at one of those special laboratories?」(Alice)

H done about it if I ask… I mean, I can’t let Saitou-kun test it out, I don’t want to lose a friend

When I told thehted to see Alice-chan so happy After all, Anyone would be happy to please such a cute girl

Or so I thought, but aiting us was a nightmare…

From that day forth after school we perforreat, but there was one unexpected surprise

「Saitou-kun, as supposed to be done next?」(Kouki)

「If I re that paper Fuhi!? What should we do, it’s totally burned 」(Saitou)

Alice-chan treats her workers roughly, in fact, her abuses are absolutely ridiculous

I wanted to voice a complaint to her, but if she were to say『I’m sorry』with clouded eyes, There’s no way I could continue to scold her Today too, taking the place of the person in question, I desperately proceed hat I was told In truth, she’s trying her best too, and although we all want to show off our strong points, ork quietly

「Arakawa-kun」(Saitou)

Saitou-kun moved towards my location with a serious look on his face

There’s an earth-shatteringly awful pre around but for now I’ll listen to what’s wrong

「I screwed up the amount, I accidentally doubled the quantity 」(Saitou)

What should we do… If we end up starting over, we’ll have to do that terribly coain from the start

If it’s only about twice the amount then somehow It’ll work out

「Saitou-kun, nothing happened, understand? You were just tired」(Kouki)

As I said that with a serious expression, Saitou-kun repeated those words back to me as instructed, and turned back to his work

Now then, Let’s get to work on otten so far, just a bit more and today’s ill be over…

「Arakawa-kun, Arakawa-kun!!」(Saitou?)

feeling so …

I look at the clock and notice that it’s been over 20 minutes

This is bad Extremely bad

Getting up in a hurry, I peeked into the centrifuge and beca in there that I didn’t understand As I despair at how my efforts had been wasted, someone tapped me on the shoulder I turned my head and Saitou-kun, with a serious expression spoke (Fraiziar: Originally ‘centrifuge’ was 分離機 which e’ in japanese is 遠心分離機, which is the sae’ because it seemed more appropriate)
