The minister, who was usually unscrupulous, even had angel wings in his eyes today.
Yukinoshita Yukino held Eriri's hand and recited the lines in a methodical manner: "Natsume, are you coming here to play too? Can I sit down?"
Natsume Rin responded without hesitation: "No problem."
Eriri, who was hiding behind her, revealed her true face at this time. Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had been watching the show ever since she saw Yukinoshita coming over, suddenly became aware of the tsundere golden twin ponytails.
No wonder...
But why would Eriri, such a tsundere girl, lower herself to ask others for help?
In the face of her half-smile, Eriri rarely shrank her head and took the seat vacated by Natsume, while Yukino was forced to stay with Kasumigaoka Utaha.
"Who are you?" Kasumigaoka Utaha said lazily.
"Senior, Yukinoshita-san is the president of my club."
After someone came to share the pressure, Natsume immediately became active. At this time, even if he was completely exposed, his psychological pressure almost disappeared.
I only introduce Yukinoshita because the other blonde senior needs no introduction.
"Oh." Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded in understanding. She didn't say much to this famous school girl. She tilted her head and looked at Eriri opposite her: "Who is this?"
"Kasumigaoka, you!"
Being ridiculed like this, Eriri felt unprecedented humiliation. She slammed the table in annoyance, intending to explain to this big-breasted, brainless idiot woman who she, Eriri, really was.
"Ahem." Yukinoshita Yukino coughed visibly and looked at Natsume who was almost laughing: "Can we go to the amusement park together this afternoon? Eriri-senpai and I are not very familiar with this place."
It's said as if it's familiar to me.
Knowing that she was trying to create conditions for Eriri, Natsume Rin looked at her senior, and Eriri also closed her mouth under the pressure of Yukinoshita's eyes.
As expected of Yukinoshita-san, it was easy for her to do this kind of thing where the younger students suppress the older students.
And Kasumigaoka Utaha waved her hand without much interest, tacitly agreeing to this matter.
In the end, the decision is in her hands.
Before she finalized the contract, she would never give Eriri another chance to laugh at her.
By the way, it also allows her to calm down and focus on developing her talents, instead of thinking about playing games all day long.
The coffee and fast food that were ordered in advance were delivered. Yukinoshita and the others who arrived late had to wait for a few minutes. While Kasumigaoka Utaha sipped her coffee, she looked at Natsume who was sitting opposite her and suddenly laughed.
I don’t know if that idiot Eriri noticed that the teacher Enjo whom she boasted about was sitting next to them at this moment.
Yukinoshita looked at Natsume, suspecting that he had made this senior stupid, otherwise why would she laugh for no reason.
"Can't you think of something good about me?"
'Does such a thing exist?'
After the eye contact, Natsume, who had no way to correct her ideas, just started eating. The food in the amusement park did not have to be criticized for its taste, but the standard set meal at least guaranteed a basic taste.
After the meal, the group leaving the restaurant was much larger. Yukinoshita said that she was unfamiliar with the place, but she acted as a guide with a map that she got from somewhere.
Her hand wandered over the Rapids Coaster icon. Although she thought it was a great game for four people, she didn't think it was necessary to sacrifice herself for their friendship.
Even with Natsume around, Yukino still felt a little resistant in her heart.
“How about a Ferris wheel?”
She hesitated for a long time, and when she reached the intersection and saw more people around, she finally determined her target.
"Are you planning on confessing, too?"
Chapter 55 I Reject
As soon as he said it, Natsume regretted it.
He was originally thinking of what his senior said when she teased him, but telling it to Yukino always felt like he was hinting at something.
Who made him the only boy here?
"What nonsense are you talking about."
She simply didn't think much about it, just rolled her eyes at Natsume and planned to lead the way to the Ferris wheel.
"Junior, it's not dusk yet." The silent but not dumb Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly said.
Not understanding what she was talking about in a riddle, Yukino looked at her in confusion. Natsume Rin, who knew the answer well, explained it for her senior.
"The Ferris wheel is going to be the last stop in the amusement park. It's too early to go home if we go now."
Yukino pinched her chin and thought, feeling that humans were a species worthy of further study.
"Since senior doesn't want to end it now, how about we do something exciting?" Natsume Rin tempted Yukinoshita and the others.
He had set his sights on that project when he was having dinner just now, and now that he saw an opportunity, he would of course spare no effort to promote it.
Eriri was distracted, Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't care, and only Yukinoshita had some doubts, but she couldn't stand his bombardment of sales pitches.
The task of leading the way was given to Natsume. When he led the girls to the destination, listening to the endless screams, Natsume introduced them to them with extreme excitement.
"Welcome to the Great Pendulum!"
Now it was the girls' turn to feel weak, but they had already reached the goal, and seeing that there were four people in a row above, Yukino gritted her teeth and pushed forward.
The shouting from above made them feel a little guilty, but after Yukino lowered her head and talked to Eriri for a few words, the eyes of the girl with twin ponytails became firm.
Natsume Rin originally thought that the task of persuading the senior would fall on him, but the other party's interested expression saved him the effort.
"It looks very interesting. Only cowards would be afraid of it."
Very good and spirited, but the pendulum will make all those who talk tough surrender.
Natsume went to buy tickets. With Yukino's deliberate arrangement, the seat distribution was not unexpected. The two senior students sat on one side, the club members sat on the other side, and Yukino served as the connecting part in the middle.
Several people fastened their seat belts and looked at the floating environment and the excited voices of the people around them. Ying Lili began to feel guilty.
She wasn't sure if it was worth making such a big sacrifice in order to reconcile with Kasumigaoka Utaha.
But now that it has come to this, there is no reason for her to escape, the navigator shouted loudly beside him.
“Are you scared?”
As usual, the tourists on this trip responded loudly as well.
“Not at all!”
It turns out that being stubborn is human nature.
The tourists who had just loudly said they were not afraid began to shout excitedly as the pendulum accelerated, and then the cycle continued, with this excitement gradually turning into fear.
Yukinoshita Yukino, who was not used to this kind of high-intensity exercise, closed her eyes tightly after sitting down, held the handrails with both hands, and tried to look calm.
When she was so dizzy that she was about to vomit the food she had just eaten, the pale-faced Natsume Rin grabbed her hand.
At this moment, I no longer cared about feeling the touch, I just instinctively wanted to grab something to relieve the feeling of stimulation.
"Ahhh!"
The two senior students next to them were not so calm. If it weren't for the guardrails, they would have hugged each other and screamed loudly.
Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was very rampant before coming up, was not performing much better at this time.
When the pendulum came down, the two of them no longer cared about their dignity and found a trash can to vomit. Although Yukinoshita looked uncomfortable, she had not yet reached the point where she could not control herself.
Over the next period of time, after experiencing the excitement, they calmed down completely. And after having such an experience of sharing hardships, Kasumigaoka Utaha's attitude towards Eriri was obviously much better.
After visiting a few more relaxing fairy tale themes, the sky darkened and the amusement park became less crowded.
The Ferris wheel is a popular place all day long, but now you don’t have to queue.
It seems that the senior's theory is indeed wrong. Who would deliberately choose a time when the light is bad to come to the sky?
Squeezed into a small space that could accommodate four people, Eriri wanted to retreat, but Yukino had already taken the seat next to Natsume, so she had to reluctantly sit next to Kasumigaoka.
Sensing that the highlight of the day was about to begin, Kasumigaoka Utaha became even calmer. She pressed close to the car window, watching the scenery gradually disappearing.
"that……"
Yukinoshita Yukino and Natsume Rin kept encouraging her with their eyes. Tsundere Eriri sighed in her heart and spoke on her own initiative.
"Kasumi Hill..."
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have laughed at you when you were sad, and I shouldn't have compared you to others."
"The most wrong thing I did was to discourage your dream. Now I know I was wrong, Kasumigaoka Utaha, please forgive me."
She grabbed Kasumigaoka Utaha's arm and shook it back and forth, trying to impress her in this way.
"So who are you two?" Ignoring Eriri who was acting cute beside her, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at the two people opposite her.
It was these two that I met on the third floor that day.
"The purpose of the Service Club is to help students in need. Our main goal right now is to save friendships, and Senior Eriri is the first one to come seek help." Yukinoshita Yukino introduced her club.
"What a strange club." Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile what Natsume Rin had always wanted to say.
"But you guys seem really responsible. You actually found the person who asked me out, and even made Eriri take the initiative to admit her mistake. What benefits did she give you?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha loosened the golden hair that was tangled around her arms, untied the red hairband that tied her hair, and asked curiously.
Yukinoshita Yukino frowned, feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed: "There is no price, this is how the club activities of the service club are."
"You're so kind." Kasumigaoka Utaha exclaimed.
Natsume Rin shrugged and looked at the calm Yukino. She felt that she had a really good temper and didn't even react when being ridiculed like that.
Of course, it is also possible that she simply doesn’t care about other people’s comments or opinions, just like the unfortunate Yumiko Miura.
"And Eriri, my answer to your apology is simple."
The Ferris wheel reached the highest point, dozens of meters in the air. Ying Lili had already anticipated what the other party would say next, and she gritted her teeth in anger.
"reject."
Turning sideways to look at the scenery outside, Kasumigaoka Utaha returned to her cold expression when dealing with strangers.
This kind of girl made Natsume understand why Senior Kasumigaoka was called an ice beauty.
