If there were sunflower seeds...
Natsuhiko wouldn't mind grabbing a handful and putting them in his mouth, slowly cracking them open.
The girls in front of him, who he didn't know, were just unknown in a general sense, meaning only that Natsuhiko didn't recognize them.
As for Nao...
Natsuhiko shook his head.
Clearly, the girls knew each other.
The girls in front of him were obviously the type who were popular in the group, in a meaningful way.
In fact.
Hoshinoumi Academy also had rules that passed down from the top to the bottom.
In fact, Shuchiin Academy had the same, but these things wouldn't be said openly.
The trouble-making girls wore short, dark blue skirts.
Of course, it was the length after being privately changed, and most people wouldn't pay much attention.
The only thing that was noticeable was that they didn't wear ribbons like most girls, but all wore neckties.
Of course.
Neckties and ribbons were actually provided by the school, and there was no real difference.
However, he had heard that.
Some older female students only allowed those at the top of the social ladder to choose whether or not to wear a necktie.
And these girls, all in dark blue, wore neckties, but still deliberately loosened the tie at the collar, even showing the clothes they wore underneath through the opening.
Well.
It must be said.
Very trendy.
However.
Natsuhiko sneered.
"Ah, what a waste of that pretty face."
"We are going to get revenge for our friend who you bullied!"
"We heard, you always tell the helpless transfer student in your class to go to the roof..."
"Ah, just thinking about it, it's really annoying not to beat you up and leave some bruises on your pretty face!"
"Yeah, yeah!"
"No mistake."
The others echoed.
"Hey, when we're talking to you, don't wear your earphones, got it?"
As the words fell, a fist appeared in the air.
Just as she was about to hit Nao, the female classmate stumbled and slipped on the ground.
The bad girl in white tights fell.
She was a little embarrassed.
"Hehe, I used a little too much force, help me up quickly..."
The other girls.
"..."
"This person is really bad luck."
It was actually advantageous to Nao, who had clearly already seen the clue. Natsuhiko's ability was too obvious, which was - Slip.
Of course.
Natsuhiko was also planning to step in.
"Ah, s-sorry, classmate, excuse me."
"Huh? Oh, classmate? What's wrong?"
A man with pigeon toes and bent knees suddenly appeared in this place.
His neck was turned back a lot and his shoulders were shaking a lot. Just looking at his actions made you strongly feel like he was a small thug.
As expected, she looked a little puzzled by the sudden approach.
Especially at the moment when they were planning to do something shady.
The other girls quickly moved to block Tomori Nao behind them, and then turned to look at Natsuhiko.
Natsuhiko pretended not to know.
"U-um, do you have a tissue? I have a cold but I forgot to bring one..."
He pretended to feel sick and asked as if nothing had happened.
The lead girl paused slightly.
Then she said with a smile.
"Oh, is that so, wait a minute... Ah~ sorry, I don't have one!"
She put her hands together in an apologetic gesture.
However, her easygoing attitude, as if she had accidentally messed something up, was completely different from when she had just raised her fist to hit Nao's face.
This acting.
Natsuhiko almost wanted to applaud.
His eyes and mouth were full of smiles.
"Actually, I brought one. This tissue is still wet."
He opened his hand.
Sure enough.
The girls all saw the wet wipe that Natsuhiko took out of his pocket.
Wasn't he messing with them?
"Although I don't mean to disturb your fun, one of you mentioned calling me to the roof to bully me. Without my permission, can you just say such irresponsible things?"
The sister group finally realized.
This guy wasn't just some random passerby.
He was clearly someone who had been following them all along.
Thinking of this.
The expression of the leader, who had wanted to cover up a little, returned to calmness.
"How can the relationship between girls be stirred up by boys? We are Nao's good friends, and we are playing a friendly game with her. Who do you think you are?"
Natsuhiko chuckled.
"Nao is considered part of my harem group for now. Since you want to play games with her, why don't you play with me too~"
He deliberately spoke with a strained voice.
Just to disgust these people who had no shame.
"Sure!"
The leader raised her hand.
She clenched her fist and punched downwards.
She was betting that the man in front of her wouldn't dare to hit a girl.
If he did.
The consequences of hitting a girl would be much more serious than bullying.
Looking at Natsuhiko's unmoved face.
The leader knew.
She had bet correctly.
However.
Her fist reached the middle.
Her center of gravity was lost again, and it looked like her whole body was about to hit the ground.
Her face was heading towards the ground, and her breasts too.
This was a terrible nightmare.
Of course.
At the last second.
Natsuhiko reached out and caught her.
The teasing voice echoed in the leader's ear: "I haven't even used my strength yet, how did you fall down?"
Then, she was pulled up.
The next moment.
Something that stunned the sisters behind her happened.
This guy.
Actually.
Let go of her hand.
That's right, literally let go.
The leader fell down again.
Just as her face was about to touch the ground, she was pulled up again.
Then.
In front of everyone.
Again and again, again and again.
He even muttered, "Classmate, why did you fall again? I'll pull you up."
One thousand times, oh, one thousand times.
...
The leader felt insulted.
Her senses were even numb.
The rest of the sister group were obviously scared silly, not even daring to move.
"If you guys want to save your sister, you must also be punished."
Natsuhiko showed an evil smile.
"Here are a few options. One, run 30 laps around the track. Two, do 1000 squats. Three, say my name and Nao's name 100 times. Choose carefully, I'm very generous, you only need to choose one of the three."
The girls clearly felt that they had no chance of winning.
They magnificently chose to compromise.
"We choose three."
"What is the classmate's name?"
"My name is Natsuhiko!"
So.
The three of them started saying names.
"Natsuhiko and Nao," "Natsuhiko and Nao"... "Natsuhiko and Nao."
Natsuhiko listened and nodded with a smile.
After more than ten times, they realized that this was a very terrifying punishment.
They said it with red faces and ears.
"Now it's 40 times, there are still 60 times..."
The girls gasped as they said Natsuhiko and Nao's names, and even started to feel dizzy due to lack of oxygen.
"Keep going, there's one more time..."
Finally, the last time.
One of the girls smiled in relief.
Natsuhiko smiled along with her.
"Although, it is indeed 100 times, but you didn't hear my request clearly. Nao's full name is Tomori Nao!"
The girls paused and opened their mouths wide, looking terrified. Of course, during this time, the leader was still pretending to fall.
Natsuhiko showed an angelic smile.
"Let's start from the beginning!"
Looking at the leader who was suffering so much.
"Natsuhiko and Tomori Nao," "Natsuhiko and Tomori Nao"...
"It seems like the rule is me and Nao"
"It seems like I am you, right..."
Natsuhiko was having a great time playing with words.
The sister group had completely quieted down. The man in front of them was a demon.
Until, Tomori Nao giggled and stepped in to stop it.
"I now order you to stop with the order of the chairman."
Then, even though they didn't do it one thousand times, oh, one thousand times, they turned around and started apologizing!
