With no other trivial matters to attend to, Shikime Natsu felt completely relaxed. Even simply drinking coffee here with a beautiful girl was a pleasant experience.
Of course, the prerequisite was having a beautiful girl present. If he were drinking coffee all by himself, it would look far too lonely.
"The coffee shop is so crowded today, it looks like there are no seats....."
Just then, a very familiar voice came from the shop's entrance.
"Eh? Is that Shiki-san? What a coincidence!"
It was Kushida Kikyou. Standing beside her was a girl he didn't recognize.
The girl was petite, on the same level as Sakayanagi Arisu. Her long, dark blue hair was tied into pigtails, a style rarely seen at this school, which added a few points to her cuteness. Her violet-red eyes held a hint of nervousness and worry, which, paired with her small and lovely face, was quite pitiable.
The girl wore the school uniform on her upper body and the school's short skirt below. Beneath the skirt were smooth, slender, and fair legs. She wasn't wearing white or black stockings to form an Absolute Territory, but it was still enough to easily draw attention.
[Ding~]
[CG13: First Encounter (Mei-Yu Wang)]
[Envious of Kikyou-chan~]
[Congratulations, Host. You've obtained the Skill Card: Good Deeds are Rewarded (Your kindness may bring you good fortune.)]
Another girl who triggered a CG, and from her name... she seemed to be from his hometown.
Kamuro Masumi's gaze also fell on Kushida Kikyou and Mei-Yu Wang. So this was the Kushida-san Shikime Natsu had just mentioned. Another incredible beauty. This guy's social connections were really something else.
The girl looked at Shikime Natsu with an unreadable expression, feeling slightly annoyed.
"Um... Shiki-san, are you two on a date?"
Kushida Kikyou's gaze inadvertently swept over Kamuro Masumi.
So he wouldn't help her set up a meeting with Horikita Suzune, but he'd come here on a date himself, is that it?
"No."
Before Shikime Natsu could speak, Kamuro Masumi answered first.
"Then, can we sit here?"
Kushida Kikyou asked further, a smile in her eyes along with some unknown meaning, as if she were scheming something.
Shikime Natsu didn't answer, instead looking at Kamuro Masumi. He was the one who had invited her, after all. If he took it upon himself to let Kushida Kikyou and her friend sit down, it would be rude to Kamuro Masumi.
"Sit."
Kamuro Masumi suddenly spoke. Shikime Natsu had expected to see 'falseness', but it was actually 'genuine'?
What was going on?
Shikime Natsu was getting more and more confused.
"Then we'll be intruding~"
Kushida Kikyou smiled and pulled Mei-Yu Wang to a seat.
"S-Sorry for intruding."
Mei-Yu Wang answered timidly.
The table was originally for four people, and now it was perfectly full.
"By the way, it's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Shikime Natsu, and this is Kamuro Masumi."
Shikime Natsu gave a simple introduction for himself and Kamuro Masumi.
"Hello, I'm Kushida Kikyou. It's a pleasure to meet you~"
A gentle and generous smile hung on Kushida Kikyou's face.
"I... I'm Mei-Yu Wang, it's a pleasure to meet you."
As Mei-Yu Wang spoke these few words, her little face turned completely red.
Her communication skills seemed even worse than Kamuro Masumi's. Of course, if Kamuro Masumi were willing to communicate, she would definitely be better than Mei-Yu Wang.
Mei-Yu Wang's courage needed more training.
"Mm, a pleasure."
Shikime Natsu smiled and nodded. It had to be said, Shikime Natsu's character model was exceptionally good. Mei-Yu Wang didn't even dare to meet his gaze, or rather, she would immediately look away after making eye contact.
"The coffee here tastes quite good. Which kind did you order, Shiki-san? Could you recommend one?"
Kushida Kikyou noticed Shikime Natsu's and Kamuro Masumi's coffee and asked with a curious smile.
"Of course. I highly recommend this one."
Shikime Natsu nodded and pointed to the coffee he had ordered.
"Then I'll have this one. What about you, Mei-chan?"
Kushida Kikyou handed the menu to Mei-Yu Wang.
"I'll have this one too."
Mei-Yu Wang made her decision after only a brief glance.
It seems she's the type to go with the flow.
Shikime Natsu briefly analyzed Mei-Yu Wang's personality. The one next to him was different from Mei-Yu Wang. If she didn't like something, she would reject it directly. He just didn't know if this was only towards him or if she treated everyone the same.
But... in Class A, Kamuro Masumi seemed to only be familiar with him. He had thought about having Yamamura Miki and Kamuro Masumi become friends during lunch, but from the results, it was still quite difficult.
This kind of thing couldn't be rushed.
"By the way, do you come to this coffee shop often, Shiki-san?"
Since Mei-Yu Wang and Kamuro Masumi didn't seem like the type to initiate conversations, Kushida Kikyou could only try her best to find topics herself.
For Kushida Kikyou, this was a routine. After all, the role she had to play was this kind of image, and she enjoyed it, even more so enjoying using this image to listen to the secrets of those around her.
"I guess you could say I come often."
Shikime Natsu recalled for a moment. He had only been at this school for three days but had already been to this coffee shop twice. The frequency was already quite high.
"I see. This school is so great, giving us a hundred thousand points every month. If this were outside, I'd probably only come to this kind of coffee shop once a month."
Kushida Kikyou sighed with a bit of emotion.
"Yeah, if this were outside, I wouldn't dare spend so recklessly either. By the way, I heard you say yesterday that someone in your class spent thirty thousand points on a game console. Is that true?"
Shikime Natsu started to gossip a little.
Kamuro Masumi watched Shikime Natsu and knew what he was doing—inquiring about the point situation in Class D.
Isn't that statement a bit too fake? Spending thirty thousand personal points on the first day isn't something a normal person would do, right?
"Yes, it's true. A student in our class named Ike spent thirty thousand points on a handheld console, and other classmates have also bought some rather expensive things. If this were outside of school, I doubt anyone would do that, right?"
Kushida Kikyou nodded, having to sigh with emotion as she recalled the things her classmates had bought.
"I've also spent a few more points than I used to."
"What about you, Shiki-san?"
Kushida Kikyou blinked her big eyes as she looked at Shikime Natsu, all but spelling out 'I'm very curious' on her face.
"I haven't bought any luxury items. It's basically all for meals, coffee, and things like that."
Shikime Natsu spoke slowly. That's right, even though he had over a million personal points in his hands, Shikime Natsu had no intention of splurging.
Satisfying his appetite was pretty much enough.
"Shiki-san must be the thrifty, home-maker type of good man."
Kushida Kikyou praised.
Kamuro Masumi listened to their conversation, not knowing what expression to make. It was a completely nonsensical conversation, and she wasn't interested in it at all. What she wanted to know was how Kushida Kikyou and Shikime Natsu met. Of course, it was probably Shikime Natsu who had actively approached her.
"Hahaha, pretty girls, enjoy yourselves to the fullest! It's on me!"
A bold voice rang out from the coffee shop's entrance, and a blond-haired man walked into the cafe with several girls.
