Kapitel 160: A Girl's Heart Is Very Complicated
(I'm a girl without feelings!)
Furuhashi almost said the words in her heart.
Luckily, she held back in time, and after rearranging her words in her mind, she showed a friendly smile towards the direction where the voice came from.
"Hi, I'm Furuhashi Fumino, Asada-san's classmate..." Turning her attention from Shinichi to her appearance, Furuhashi saw her curious expression, "I-Ichika!"
Seeing the ribbons on her head, Furuhashi quickly reacted: "No, even though the hair is short, but it's a little different... Are you quintuplets?"
"Oh~ What a correct answer!" Yotsuba smiled, and stretched out her hand to Furuhashi, "This is our first meeting, I'm Nakano Yotsuba, the fourth among the quintuplets!"
"This is the first time we've met…" Furuhashi shook her hand back, comparing her appearance to Ichika and Itsuki in her mind… She had to take another breath, they really were very similar.
If several of them were standing together without any characteristic hairstyles and headbands, only those who were most familiar with them would be able to tell them apart.
Maybe one of the necessary conditions for them to get a boyfriend is to be able to recognize the five of them. Otherwise, it would be easy for a tragedy to occur...
"Furuhashi-san, do you know Ichika?" Yotsuba asked curiously, "You can tell us apart so quickly, are you Ichika's best friend?"
Shinichi could only stare at her.
It's fine if it's Itsuki, after all, they're classmates… When did Furuhashi meet Ichika? And her tone seemed quite familiar.
"This..." Under Shinichi's gaze, Furuhashi turned her head guiltily, "We met at the cafeteria! I ate with her, we exchanged contact information and chatted for a few days."
As long as she thinks of Ichika, apart from "Declaration of Interest", Furuhashi will also think of the decision she made when she banged her forehead on the table in class, and she was a little scared to look at Shinichi.
Previously calm down, don't worry about whether Shinichi and the quintuplets get along well, Furuhashi believes he is not easy to attack, and then she will plot for Ogata.
Even after so many days, but now she still couldn't calm down.
So although she was curious about Ichika and Shinichi's progress in the Forest School Committee, and whether she really took the initiative to pursue it, she never investigated this aspect, but secretly observed whether Shinichi often checked his cell phone, returned home, etc.
The results are satisfactory. Even though the frequency of using cellphones has increased, Shinichi typed with a serious face. He definitely doesn't flirt with others, he puts business first, and Ogata still has a chance!
After relaxing, Furuhashi felt she could face Shinichi again.
Furuhashi clenched her fist secretly.
"So." Oblivious to the complicated thoughts of the girl beside him, Shinichi nodded, then put the matter behind him.
After the curiosity is over, it doesn't matter whether they know each other… It's just that his "student" and "subordinate" are friends, which is a bit strange.
"By the way, Asada-san..." Yotsuba turned and smiled at Shinichi, and was about to say something when the lid of the teapot in his hand and the towel on his shoulder came into view, which made her dumbfounded.
"This is..." Looking at the items that were clearly not what Shinichi would be taking on his morning run, Furuhashi's current outfit and the bag open beside her, Yotsuba's smile slowly faded, arms behind her back, she asked curiously.
"Furuhashi-san, are you here to visit Asada-san?"
"What visit? This isn't a visit…" Shinichi glanced at her annoyed.
Furuhashi nodded: "That's right... After all, Asada-san is mine..."
"Boyfriend!?" Yotsuba took two steps back in surprise, covering her mouth with one hand.
"No, that's not it!" Furuhashi quickly denied, and hastily defended, "Asada-san is my tutor, Sensei taught me how to study, and I see him running fast every day, so I brought him some drinks."
Furuhashi secretly glanced at Shinichi, fearing that he would show a displeased expression. If he wasn't happy with her denial, then wouldn't that mean...
Thinking of this, her heart skipped a beat, she lowered she head, not knowing whether she should continue explaining.
And Shinichi was drinking tea quietly at the side. It happened twice, he just pretended not to hear.
Then Furuhashi peeked at Shinichi's indifferent appearance. She puffed out her cheeks and sulked. Even if Shinichi wasn't disappointed or embarrassed, he should at least react? Is she that insignificant?
This is the complicated heart of a girl...
"Sorry, I misunderstood~" Yotsuba's eyes fell on the two sitting side by side, then pretended to be serious.
"Asada-san, have you completed eight rounds today?"
"It is over." Shinichi nodded, and didn't need to show any proof. He wouldn't lie about such trivial matters, and Yotsuba also believed that what he said was the truth.
"Then today's warm-up is over! Remember to report to the athletics club after school. The club president said that she was looking forward to today's training!"
"That senpai..." Shinichi's mouth twitched.
Even though the track club president gave him lots of advice about running, the way that fellow looked at him and Yotsuba had always been very strange for some reason, and even the entire track and field club would often look at them and whisper.
If it wasn't for the athletics club's helpful training methods, Shinichi definitely wouldn't want to hang out with that group of people, it was too scary.
He reluctantly sighed: "...Okay, I'll leave on time. You must also remember to deliver your S-201 materials to the principal's office by noon today."
"Is that S-201? Accepted!" Yotsuba raised her hand seriously and saluted. At this time, Shinichi found something strange.
From the start, whether she was shaking hands, scratching her head or giving a salute, Yotsuba only used one hand, and hid the other hand behind her.
Before he could ask, Yotsuba immediately greeted Furuhashi, turned around and ran away.
...
"...Is the educator referring to the same tutor as Uesugi-san?"
Escaping from Shinichi's sight, and walking slowly down the street behind the teaching building, Yotsuba shook the bag she had just carefully hidden, looked up at the sky and muttered to herself.
"That's great... Actually, I also want Asada-san to teach me to read."
The unintentional words made her cover her mouth in astonishment, her face blushing slightly.
Then, she smiled helplessly.
"...I was just thinking about it! After all, they seem to have a really good relationship."
Yotsuba opened her bag, took out a can of defrosted sports drink from inside, opened the lid, and took a sip.
Upon closer inspection, there were also towels inside.
"Puha..." Putting down the bottle, she flicked the hair tie on her head, a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth.
She started talking to herself.
"Itsuki happens to have something to do today, otherwise she'd usually be the one preparing towels and water... I wanted to surprise Asada-san, but..."
"I'm not cut out for this kind of thing."
"…Asada-san, cheer up."
