Kapitel 897: Shirogane Kei Wants to Embarrass Him
As Shinichi stepped out of the second store, he carried several plastic bags filled with various items in his hands, much like before.
The difference was that Kei would lead the way for him, holding onto his arm with one hand and clutching the shopping list in the other to ensure that nothing else could be bought.
Despite their age and Shinichi's slightly puzzled expression, they resembled a couple out shopping, strolling slowly and side by side on the wide sidewalk.
"Only one last stop left..." Kei murmured as she glanced at her watch. She lifted her face and said to Shinichi:
"Senpai, would you like to grab lunch? Eat and rest before we finish the rest of our shopping."
"Sure."
Shinichi didn't mind at all, resembling a puppet under her control, his eyes appearing slightly sunken.
Setting aside the fact that there was no need to voice objections, if he did have any, such as "Could you let go of your hand first?", the fifteen-year-old girl beside him would calmly say:
"Senpai, didn't you say that you should treat me like a younger sister and get along with me? If you don't have any ill intentions, holding hands like this shouldn't be a big deal, right?"
Then, she displayed the familiar mocking smirk.
"Or perhaps being hugged by your 'little sister' would arouse you?"
"Senpai, that's truly despicable—"
Shinichi shook his head to clear his mind of that sound, and his eyes slowly regained clarity.
He was indeed surprised by Kei's change in attitude, but it could be said that half of his journey's purpose had been achieved.
While assisting this middle school girl in carrying her belongings, Shinichi also wanted her to reassess her feelings towards him and make a clear, careful choice.
Even if it turned out to be a battle of love and defense, as long as it was a decision she made after careful consideration, Shinichi would accept it and respond appropriately.
Although Shinichi had been embraced by the girl's arms for so long, he didn't feel his heart beating faster... After all, there were the quintuplets Nakano and Ogata Rizu beside him, and his arm had long been accustomed to resting on the girl's arm.
After experiencing the peak, of course, he wouldn't be interested in flat earth theories anymore.
Of course, that was much better than flat earth, at least it wouldn't hit ribs... Not to mention the type that was clearly flat earth but artificially stacked to form a platform.
This specifically refers to Furuhashi Fumino.
Shinichi truly persuaded Fumino to stop wearing breast pads. Anyway, no matter how flat she was, he wouldn't dislike her. Isn't it better to be honest and be oneself.
At that time, he was so kind in persuading her, but she still hit him hard.
Moreover, Fumino's attacks were very heavy at that time.
In conclusion, Shinichi wasn't greedy for Kei in the form of a middle school girl, nor did he expect to fall in love with her; he had an unwavering confidence both physically and mentally.
"Senpai, what are you laughing at?"
Realizing the change in his expression, Kei turned around in surprise.
Shinichi let his smile fade softly.
"I was thinking of something interesting."
"What interesting thing?" Kei responded very cooperatively.
Shinichi took a deep breath.
"Life is fair because everyone starts at the same level and there's no gap between humans."
"Life is unfair because some people can build tall buildings at a young age, while others are still crawling on the ground even though they are old, and they even need external force to shorten that distance."
"Comparison is a cruel thing."
"Huh?" Kei tilted her head, her face full of confusion, "Why are you saying this all of a sudden? Where's the fun in it?"
"Don't worry, it's just my feeling."
Shinichi brushed off the matter and walked with her towards the dining place in a relaxed atmosphere.
If Kei knew what he was thinking, she might be so angry that she would punch him in the chest.
Unfortunately, Kei was only puzzled why his mood suddenly improved, and she quickly forgot this trivial matter and focused on the next journey.
While shopping, she also quietly made some plans.
While waiting for dinner, use the tricks she had seen in shoujo manga—namely, feeding.
After lunch, take a walk in the park and talk to h8k about some things. At the same time, she could also test his intelligence without leaving any traces, which was very important for understanding each other's lives.
Next, she intentionally bought crepes with different flavors on the street and took a bite of the crepe under the guise of tasting it, which made hik troubled by the issue of indirect kissing. With a little care occasionally, she could show the charm of a girl.
If possible, accidentally hold his hand to make his heart beat faster; naturally locking fingers was impossible, it could only be done after everything went smoothly.
Holding hands was much easier. Back when she was indifferent, she often held her father's or brother's arm while shopping, but now she felt embarrassed and no longer did so.
As Kei walked like this, she knew that her face was blushing and her body temperature was rising, but she couldn't hold back this reaction. She covered her embarrassment by acting calm.
There was no other choice. This was the first time she went shopping hand in hand with a guy two years older than her, like an ordinary couple.
Kei couldn't calm down, but seeing his usual expression, she forced herself to remain calm and pretended to be normal, so as not to let him look down on her.
Fortunately, Kei usually read shoujo manga and talked to Moeha about some ways to conquer men. Although she always mocked her, Moeha wanted to say that she could only write about it while listening.
But now, all this messy knowledge had been utilized, and she truly didn't know whether to feel helpless or grateful.
(If these 'methods' were used together, no matter how skilled Senpai was, he couldn't resist temptation?)
Kei wanted to see his expression when Shinichi felt embarrassed and no longer calm.
She had always been someone who did what she thought and sought truth based on facts. Embarrassment was not a reason for her to retreat.
Her goal was to make the cruel Senpai who sent her a "sister card" notice her charm!
For the long-term future, there was no need to think about it anymore, just focus on the present.
Kei quietly looked at the side of Shinichi's face and slowly pursed her lips.
(Of course, I want you to take back your words!)
For Kei, her love war seemed to have begun to sound.
