Chapter 957: I Hope When We Meet Again, You and I Will Be Happy
Without any special event, the school festival proceeded as usual.
The student council had no patrol duties today, so they just checked the information provided by the committee yesterday upon arriving at school. Everyone left the student council room and went to their classes and clubs to prepare.
Shinichi found an excuse to part ways from Itsuki and Fumino. Instead of going straight to class, he turned at a corner and walked towards a secluded spot near the teaching building.
When he arrived, there were already two people waiting for him.
"Yo! You're late."
"Did you go somewhere with a girl?"
Shinichi said helplessly, "You two are former members of the student council. You should know how difficult it is to have tasks to complete in the morning, yet you still mock people like this."
Both Shirogane Miyuki and Ishigami Yu couldn't help but smile, reminiscing about the past.
They specifically made an appointment here to have a secret conversation away from everyone's sight, certainly not to chat and reminisce.
Approaching the two of them, Shinichi quickly started the conversation.
"All preparations are ready, all that's left is our actions."
He glanced at Shirogane and Ishigami, then his expression turned serious. "I don't need to say more about how much time and effort we've put in today, right?"
They both nodded silently, determination shining in their eyes.
"Shirogane-senpai, are the balloons and Stanford invitations okay?"
"It's fine, I'll inform Shinomiya about Stanford first and then invite her to the rooftop." Shirogane replied with a sigh of pity, "Honestly, isn't this too bland? It's better to do as I said earlier..."
"Play the mystery of stealing balloons?" Shinichi's mouth moved slightly, and he said angrily, "Senpai, don't do anything you want if it's unrelated to you. I'm the president now, so I can let you stay overnight. It would be better to release the balloons to declare your love when the time comes. Do you really think you don't need time to handle that task?"
"Well, okay, I was just thinking." Shirogane smiled apologetically at the current student council president, "With you taking Fujiwara away and Ishigami pulling Iino away, there shouldn't be much trouble... You've made sure that only I can go up to the rooftop, right?"
"Don't worry when I'm on duty." Shinichi turned to Ishigami, "What about you? I quietly blocked the old teaching building. Are you sure Iino will go there with you alone?"
"Yeah, just find an excuse." Ishigami touched his neck, looking a little embarrassed but also proud, "Don't look at us always fighting, as long as I say something seriously and don't step on any landmines, Iino will basically listen to me... Even if I take her there as an excuse to change the patrol route, she should know that I want to confess to her."
"If she doesn't want to go, then I can just give up and pretend it's nothing, so no one gets hurt!"
He said the sad thing with a cheerful tone.
Both Shinichi and Shirogane patted his shoulder, trying to comfort this big boy who seemed determined but actually filled with negative thoughts.
"As far as I know, Iino might also like you... If I'm wrong, we'll have a coke and potato chip game party tonight, turn off our phones, and let the ladies crawl!"
"Yes, right! As long as one side fails, the other two sides are not allowed to be with women. Let's have a guys-only overnight!"
"You..." His eyes trembled slightly with emotion, Ishigami looked at them with a sad and angry expression, "Do you call this comfort?! Look at your ugly faces confident of winning, Is it not okay to be arrogant if you have good grades?"
Shinichi smiled amiably.
"Sorry, you can be so arrogant because of your good grades."
"No, Asada is the only arrogant one. Actually, I'm quite anxious..." Shirogane sighed, looking at Shinichi with a little envy and admiration, "Daring to open a harem in the real world like in manga, and the lineup is still very big, and you don't have to worry about falling... Although I don't agree with your approach of boarding many boats, honestly, I still admire you."
"Anyway, you've achieved a man's ultimate dream." Ishigami raised his hand, pointing his finger at him, and said jokingly, "I'll give you an outstanding shot... Go to hell."
"Haha, don't worry, you'll soon be the current charger." Shinichi didn't care.
They didn't know that even though they weren't worried about whether their current confession would succeed, they always had a fear lurking ahead. Could he give them the same happiness, would they leave him someday, or would he leave them someday. What if he couldn't convince their parents...
Everything he did now and all his efforts were to fight this fear.
Shinichi wasn't just a playboy, he had to shoulder responsibilities far heavier than falling in love. The most he could do for cheating was to be beaten by their parents. If polygamy... hmm, think about it, Mr. Nakano is actually quite controlled now.
If Shinichi knew that his precious daughter had become a member of a naughty boy's harem, even if it meant sacrificing everything, he would definitely find a funeral agent as soon as possible in secret, no matter how much his daughter liked the other party.
Shinichi could feel the same, but he couldn't do to others what they didn't want others to do to him. So in the near future, he would finally have to face his father-in-law and mother-in-law, be the villain who stole their daughter.
Two men like Shirogane and Ishigami who purely loved a woman surely didn't understand. They just thought that having a harem was very fun and sharing blessings from everyone. They never thought that "the more you get, the more you have to pay." This is the truth.
Shinichi also wanted to be the foolish harem protagonist! He also wanted to have a system!
"Asada, you're the first among us to confess, so it's okay, right?"
Shinichi responded to Shirogane's concern with a little humor.
"What's the problem? I'm a man who has confessed my feelings many times before. Now I'm just confirming the relationship. It's very easy, right?"
Shirogane released a love balloon to express his feelings to Kaguya.
Ishigami took Iino to the old teaching building to confess his love with flowers adorning the classroom.
And Shinichi used the wedding event organized by the class to give the girls the clear answer he hadn't made yet.
He wanted to end this ambiguous relationship and truly establish a relationship with them on the basis of marriage.
Although it was just a small thing that could be achieved just by talking, life still needed a sense of ritual for the other party to feel the romance of love.
"Because we're all confident in our next actions, then..."
Shinichi extended his fist, bumped it with the other two, then waved away.
"I hope next time we meet, you and I will be happy."
After those words were uttered, the three teenagers walked to different places.
On their faces, there was a sincere determination that they would go to the battlefield.
