It was so profound that it was as if he could see through Futaba Rio's science girl's outer shell and point directly to her heart.

"No problem. I've always been the one clearing away Rico Rico's plates."

Regarding Futaba Rio's tense mood, Inoue Takina did not say anything to ease her mood. She just replied briefly and then lowered her head and continued eating.

"But..."

"Okay. Sister Rio."

Nishiki Chishu patted Futaba Rio's shoulder with a 'haha' sound, and said with a smile: "Don't you have other things to do?"

She deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word 'other things'.

His eyes also glanced suggestively at Nango, who had also finished his meal on the other side, and then winked at Futaba Rio.

With this obvious statement, even Futaba Rio could see what the other party meant.

‘Don’t you want to be friends with Shijun? Seize the opportunity! ’

But--

Futaba Rio didn't dare to look directly at Nishiki Chishu.

She is not as cheerful and generous as Nishiki Chishu at all.

As a science geek, she is somewhat withdrawn and shy.

Although I had already said firmly before that I wanted to be friends with Nanxiang Shi.

You can take the initiative to contact boys...

Let's be honest.

She never did.

Don't even know how to do it.

and...

Futaba Rio thought rationally and felt that there was no need to be so anxious.

After all, Nanxiang Shi was there, and he wouldn't suddenly disappear one day.

You should let things take their own course, slowly get to know Nanxiang, and then become friends.

In fact, there are experiments such as boiling frogs in warm water.

Well, yes, no need to rush.

There's no need to be in such a hurry.

Think so.

Futaba Rio raised her head and gave Nishiki Chishu a wink, indicating that she didn't have to act too hastily for the time being. She was measured.

Nishiki Chishu also showed a look of realization that said, "I see, I completely understand."

This made Futaba Rio let out a relaxed breath.

Although Nishiki Chishu looks carefree and carefree.

But it’s actually quite reliable.

Futaba Rio breathed a sigh of relief and thought about how to take the first step in making friends with Nango.

Then--

"Toki-kun! Sister Liang seemed to have said she wanted to go back with you just now! She also said she had something important that she wanted to tell you in private!"

Raising his palm, Nishiki Chishu suddenly spoke to Nanxiang.

"Why?"

Futaba Rio was stunned for a moment.

She looked at Nishiki Chishu with a dull expression.

It turned out that the other party was also looking at her happily, and at the same time gave her a look that said, "Don't worry, you don't need to say anything, I understand."

no?

Miss Nishikiki, what do you know? !

That’s not what I meant at all!

I really...

Futaba Rio Sakura's lips parted subconsciously, and her face turned red.

The key is that Nishiki Chishu has already spoken.

At this time, she couldn't stop it directly, so she could only blink at Nishiki Chishu frantically and signal to her.

In response to her actions, Nishiki Chishu showed an expression of 'I completely understand'.

then--

"Toki-kun, it's really better to give Sister Liang a gift, right? It's not safe for her to go home alone as a girl, right?"

Jinmu Qianshu showed a concerned look and spoke to Nan Xiangshi.

He even tugged on Nanxiang's sleeves as if he was worried that he wouldn't be able to hear.

It's over.

This was the only word that came to Futaba Rio's mind as she watched Nishiki Chishu's movements.

It's all over!

Originally, she thought of playing it safe by letting the water flow slowly and boiling frogs in warm water!

As a result, Nishiki Chishu directly accelerated the process dozens of times!

Now Futaba Rio could only pray to Nango but did not hear her.

But obviously Nanxiang Shi was not deaf.

Nishiki Chishu's lively and enthusiastic voice was loud.

There was no way he couldn't hear it.

Not to mention that Nishiki Chishu walked over and tugged on his sleeve.

Nanxiang Shi turned around, glanced at Futaba Rio, and then nodded: "That's fine."

It is indeed not safe for a seventeen-year-old girl to go back.

"..." Futaba Rio.

At this point, she no longer knew what to say.

She went out with Nanxiang Shi with a pale face. Before leaving, she saw Jinmu Qianshu lip-syncing to her.

Rio Futaba could tell that mouth shape just at a glance - 'Don't thank me. ’

"..." Futaba Rio.

At this time, even though Futaba Rio has always been quiet and introverted, she felt like she was being cheated by her pig teammates and was about to cry.

Why on earth did I think that Nishiki Chishu was very reliable just now?

She is a carefree person!

It has nothing to do with reliability at all!

But things have happened.

Futaba Rio had no choice but to follow Nango out of the gate of 'Riko Rico'.

Tokyo is not quiet at night.

Neon lights condensed into light groups flickered on the street.

The commercial pedestrian street leading to the tram stop is crowded with people.

It also adds a lot of popularity to Tokyo at night.

what to do?

Looking at Nanxiang's back in front of him.

Futaba Rio fell into thinking.

She has always been withdrawn and introverted, and this was obviously her first time dealing with such a situation.

Even if I had a conversation with Azusagawa Sakuta.

But that was also the other person looking for a topic.

She just added two sentences and then insulted the other party.

And like Nanxiang Shi... a boy she cares about more... how should she talk at this time?

How do ordinary girls get started at this time?

Well...? Brother, you are so handsome. Can you give me your contact information? No! This is what the frivolous pick-up girl in the TV series said to the handsome guy!

That is...Nanxiang, this is my lifelong request, you can be friends with me - no! What is a lifetime request? Where did the movie heroine escape from?

It turns out that communication between men and women...can it be so complicated?

Seventeen-year-old Futaba Rio has no experience in actively talking to men. She can only use some experience from movies and TV series she has watched.

At this time, her seemingly calm face was filled with turbulent emotions.

Just moving forward with Nanxiang Shi.

This seemed to have exhausted all her energy.

She had no problem thinking about the topic.

Just like a sailboat sailing in the stormy sea.

Just holding the sail steady requires all your strength.

Where can I have any other unnecessary ideas?

It was also when she was ‘trying her best’——

"Qian Shu said that you have something important you want to talk to me about...? What exactly is it?"

Nanxiang Shi, who had been silent in the front, suddenly spoke as if he had seen through her current predicament.

"..." Futaba Rio.

Chance! ! !

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Nanxiang Shi suddenly spoke.

Futaba Rio realized that the opportunity was coming.

The next step is to pick up Nanxiang Shi’s words and say, ‘Can you be friends with me? ’ Such a simple sentence.

Everything can be solved satisfactorily!

Her pink lips parted.

Vocal cords vibrate.

Want to say what I said.

but--

"Why...?"

Futaba Rio was surprised to find that she couldn't say anything at this time.

‘Can you be friends with me? ’

In Japanese, this is just a short sentence that can be summarized in no more than fourteen characters.

But the words came to Futaba Rio's lips.

But for some reason, it seemed to weigh a thousand kilograms, and I couldn't speak at all.

‘Am I afraid? ’
