章 497: A Very Fair Deal
"It's not impossible for me to help you plan a day-long date process, but the problem is time isn't enough. Aren't you going to have a date with Gabriel-san this weekend?"
After realizing she was bragging, Chika made up an excuse and wanted to decline.
Although she claims to be a love detective, she has no love experience at all, and the only record of her dates is when she went to an amusement park with Ren.
It's fine for her to help choose a meeting place, but planning the entire day's meeting process is too challenging for her.
She would be exhausted to death.
"Fine."
Hearing this, Ren gives in to let her continue helping.
"Do you have any requirements for the date location?" Chika is afraid he'll mention what just happened, so she quickly changes the topic. "You can be more detailed about it so I can filter it easily."
"Gabriel likes it." Ren's request is simple.
"Then what kind of place does she like?" Chika asks, "Give me an example."
"Don't know."
Ren shakes his head.
"Hmhmmm…"
Chika feels deceived.
Without any reference examples, how can she choose a place Gabriel would like?
Relying on her imagination?
"It's okay; I'll just ask her myself."
After calming herself, Chika gets an idea.
With her ability, it shouldn't be a problem to figure out what Gabriel likes.
"Thank you." Ren says.
"You don't need to thank me; I'm helping you for a certain reward."
Chika says with a smile.
"How much is it? Can I help you try table games?"
Talking about the price, Ren remembers Chika's enthusiasm for table games.
"No. Our table game club has retested the table games and found some serious issues. Now we're considering whether to make new ones." Chika states her reason, "I have something else I want to ask you."
"What?"
Ren is relieved that Chika didn't agree to help try the previous table games.
"This is also for gathering information, but the subject is Nino-san." Chika states her purpose.
"What are you asking?"
"Anything she likes or needs recently."
"OK."
It's easy for him to use Naoki's identity to ask this information from Nino.
After agreeing, Ren asks, "But why are you asking for this information?"
"Because I lied to Nino-san and others before, saying I wanted to make amends with them, so I need to understand Nino-san's likes." Chika says.
"So that's it."
As she says this, Ren understands what's going on.
"Don't you want me to ask about Yotsuba and Itsuki's preferences?"
Ren remembers that they were also victims.
"Both of them have been handled; only Nino-san is left." Chika proudly declares.
Ren asks curiously, "How do you plan to redeem yourself?"
He plans to find out about it if an emergency arises.
"I gave Itsuki-san a lot of restaurant coupons, but she only accepted two for buffets and didn't ask for the others." Chika doesn't hide anything, "As for Yotsuba-san, it's a secret. A girl's secret."
"Oh."
No wonder yesterday afternoon, Itsuki said Chika gave her two buffet tickets.
That's the reason.
"For Nino-san, I'm not sure what she likes, so I haven't come up with any ideas. Besides, she and I are not that close, so there's no good way to find out." Chika says sadly, "Therefore, I can only leave that question to you."
"Um."
"I'll help you find out what Gabriel-san likes and choose a date location, and you can help me find out what Nino-san likes or wants. It's a very fair deal." Chika says.
"Okay, I'll go back now. If I find out, I'll send you a message."
After saying this, Chika leaves and runs down, seeming to be in a hurry.
"Goodbye."
...
In the evening, break time at the Nakano residence.
Nakano Nino: [Lately, I've been very tired from studying, and I really want to go on a summer vacation soon.]
Ren is sitting on the sofa, looking at the message Nino just sent him, thinking hard.
Is this what Nino wants? To go on a summer vacation soon?
If he really wants to fulfill her wish, he has to use superpowers to accelerate or erase time. This is clearly something Chika can't do.
Kamikawa Naoki: [It's a bit difficult to speed up time.]
Kamikawa Naoki: [By the way, is there anything you want lately?]
Since he can't think of a suitable reply to Nino's statement, Ren casually answers and then quickly transitions to the question.
(Hm?)
Seeing the question he sent, Nino suddenly becomes wary.
Does he want to buy her a gift?
As she's about to answer, she suddenly realizes something.
She vividly remembers that Naoki still owes her a favor because he hasn't prepared a gift for studying diligently.
In other words, as long as she answers his question, her request is equivalent to being used.
Crafty guy.
After seeing his little trick, Nino gets an idea.
Nakano Nino: [I don't want anything; lately, I lack everything.]
(Nothing?)
Regarding her answer, Ren is puzzled.
If Nino lacks nothing, how can he repay Chika?
Kamikawa Naoki: [Then, is there anything you like?]
He changes his question.
[Like you]
Seeing the question, Nino types this line in the input column without hesitation.
But it's not sent; she leaves it like that.
After a moment, she deletes that line and replaces it with different characters.
Nakano Nino: [I don't have anything I like so far; maybe I'll like something in the future.]
Kamikawa Naoki: [Okay.]
Seeing him stop asking questions, Nino smiles thinly.
(Looks like we can only wait until later to ask)
After realizing that Nino didn't ask this time, Ren can't keep asking.
Besides, if he keeps asking, he might reveal something.
"Kamikawa-kun, can I ask you something?"
As soon as he puts down his phone, Itsuki approaches and says a little nervously.
