Part 4

"Welcome

to the pervert world, Hashiba-kun"

Kiryu

Takashi, 24 years old, the president of the Art Research Club, asked me to

shake his hand with an annoyingly handsome and gentlemanly gesture. I brushed

his hand away and sat down on a chair.

"Why

would I become a pervert after explaining what happened, it's no joke."

"It's

because you went to the trouble of looking for a first-year girl in another

department to meet her, and when you greeted her, she screamed at you, didn't

she? You've become a pervert who won't be ashamed to show it anywhere.

Congratulations, Hashiba-kun. Can we celebrate with red rice?"

"Forget

it, it was a mistake to tell Kiryu-san."

That day,

I had a class in the Department of Visual Arts in the afternoon, so I dropped

by the Art Research Club room to kill some time until then.

Then, as

usual, I saw one of my seniors who looked bored, so I told him about the

earlier incident (without telling him about the future, of course). I was

hoping to find some clue that would connect me to her, but,

"Does

she have big boobs?"

That was

the first thing he said after folding his arms and listening with a serious

look on his face?

Well, I

was relieved in a way because it was the usual senpai quality.

"No~,

I was impressed with your enthusiasm when you said you were going to hand out

flyers to recruit members, but I had no idea it was for the purpose of picking

up girls."

"It's

not a pick-up, please correct it."

"Hassy

is a terrible guy. Shinoaki-chan, Nanako-chan, and Kawasegawa-chan are all so

cute, and you still need more? A free time"

"I

said you are wrong, please don't talk to me with a false perception."

When I

interrupted him, Kiryu-san stared at me in frustration.

"Because,

you know, the reason Hassy wants to meet this girl is because you liked her

drawing you saw before and you want to use her work in a film, right?"

"That's

right."

In a

manner of speaking, that's how I had explained it to Kiryu-san.

"Seriously!

I don't understand why Hassy is genuinely thinking about the production when

normally there is some ulterior motive for wanting to get close to her! I

seriously don't get it!"

Kiryu-san

holding his head on the spot while rampaging.

I looked

at the situation with astonishment, but at the same time, I thought that many

of the boys who approached Saikawa Minori were like that.

(Saikawa

is cute after all)

The future

innocent-looking version of her was cute, but the current version seems to be

more approachable for boys.

So did

that mean that I was being lumped in with them, and she was wary of me? Then

that intense rejection is understandable.

(Which

reminds me, she mentioned something about a friend...)

I wasn't

sure what that was all about after all. Well, I guess I was put in the same

category as the bad guys, that's for sure.

If I had

wanted to, I would have left a piece of paper with my cell phone number and

e-mail address on it instead of that suspicious flyer. But that would have only

made her wary at that moment, and I'm sure it was the right decision... I

guess.

I might

consider getting a referral from a trusted source through Kanou-sensei. If it

makes her feel more secure.

While I

was thinking about it, my lunch break was over and the chime rang loudly.

"Then,

I'm going to the 3rd period."

When I

called out to him, Kiryu-san suddenly took on a serious tone,

"Hassy,

promise me one thing"

"What

is it?"

"If

you succeed in getting to know the girl... Please share it with me, just once is

okay."

"I'm

going to class!"

Really,

except for the creation, he is generally stupid and lewd!
