Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

Their eyes met.

Kaguya Shinomiya's expression was calm and composed, like a goddess sitting atop a frosty sky, her face expressionless, yet she was somewhat surprised.

(strangeness.)

(Why doesn't your gaze waver at all when you make eye contact with yourself?)

Kaguya Shinomiya thought of the other boys in school, who didn't even dare to look her in the eye or talk to her. Why wasn't the boy in front of her afraid of her?

The night before last, he was saying he couldn't be more successful... How dare he!

"Kaguya-chan, how are you now?" Fujiwara Chika asked with concern.

"It is indeed related to distance."

Despite her turbulent thoughts, Kaguya Shinomiya remained expressionless, a classic example of a cold-faced girl. Her voice, however, was clear and pleasant: "The mission has been activated and is currently underway."

"That's good."

"..."

Fun tasks are underway.

Fujiwara Chika sat down next to her and pulled out a box of chocolate bars from somewhere: "Do you guys want some snacks?"

"How can I eat in this state?" Natsuki Amamiya couldn't help but ask.

Fujiwara Chika handed over a chocolate bar: "Can I feed you?"

"I have absolutely no desire to eat."

Kaguya Shinomiya decisively refused.

Hey.

My phone suddenly vibrated.

“It’s my phone…” Fujiwara Chika took out her phone. “The teacher texted me, asking me to go to the office.”

Fujiwara Chika quickly stood up and waved goodbye:

"I'm going to my office. You two can continue with your task."

"..."

As the chattering Fujiwara Chika left, the board game club suddenly fell silent, becoming so quiet you could hear a pin drop, and the two of them could clearly hear each other's shallow breathing.

The breeze blows.

The white curtains swayed gently beside the two of them.

The bright morning light shone in through the window, falling perfectly on Kaguya Shinomiya's face. The light and shadow were perfectly divided by the bridge of her nose, as if the girl in front of me was standing between darkness and light, waiting for someone to reach out and save her, or for her to fall into the abyss.

For the first time, Natsuki Amamiya really looked at the girl Kaguya seriously.

Her eyes...are very beautiful.

His wine-red eyes, like red gemstones, shone brightly in the sunlight.

Her eyelashes are slightly curled and long, which is cute.

Her skin was snow-white and delicate, as if it had been soaked in milk, and it was so white that it was almost translucent in the sunlight.

Her nose is delicate and refined, and she is adorable.

And the lips are pink and moist, looking like cherry blossoms after the rain.

No matter how you look at it, Kaguya Shinomiya is an absolute beauty.

Her personality is too cold; she can easily make people feel cold.

In comparison, Miko, who often reveals her laid-back personality, is actually more endearing.

"What are you looking at?" Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly asked.

“Hmm…” Natsuki Amamiya hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell the truth, “Kaguya-san’s eyes are very beautiful.”

You've probably heard this kind of praise countless times since you were a child, right?

I can't just lie and say my eyes aren't pretty.

next moment.

Amamiya Natsuki's gaze suddenly sharpened, shocked to find a faint blush rising on Shinomiya Kaguya's face.

The rosy blush and snow-white skin complemented each other beautifully, making them particularly eye-catching in the sunlight.

Wait, you're blushing?

Kaguya-sama, who never cries, actually blushed! This is huge news!

If a member of the news department takes a picture of this, it will definitely be on the front page of the campus news tomorrow!

Watching Kaguya Shinomiya's pretty face gradually flush red, her long eyelashes trembling, Natsuki Amamiya suddenly thought of a possibility:

"You...are you about to sneeze again?"

"I don't!"

Kaguya Shinomiya bit her lip, secretly clenching her fists as she recalled unpleasant memories.

Being sandwiched like a cookie on the playground is bad enough, but to actually sigh with regret is a disgrace to one's entire life!

The boy in front of me still has some use. Once I've squeezed him dry, I'll make him turn himself in and confess!

"It's just that my eyes feel uncomfortable." Kaguya Shinomiya's tone rarely wavered. "It's not that I want to sneeze."

There was another reason she didn't mention.

For some reason, looking at her clear reflection in the boy's eyes, Kaguya Shinomiya's heart began to beat faster.

"My eyes are hurting too," Natsuki Amamiya pondered. "The mission only says you can't blink, I should be fine, right?"

"Hold on, don't blink." Kaguya Shinomiya crossed her arms, her voice cold and ruthless. "Almost three and a half minutes have passed. If blinking causes any problems, we'll have to start all over again."

"It only takes ten minutes to start over."

"Either don't do it at all, or do it to the best of your ability. If you can do it the first time, you should never fail."

"..."

I didn't realize you were such a perfectionist!

The girl's warm, sweet breath landed on my face, making it slightly itchy.

and many more.

Amamiya Natsuki suddenly realized what was happening.

When did I become so close to the ice sculpture girl?

Chapter 28 Zhuge Huiye

Just a stone's throw away.

Breathe and smell each other.

Looking at her clear reflection in Amamiya Natsuki's eyes, Shinomiya Kaguya finally realized that the distance between them had unknowingly become extremely dangerous.

(Too close, too close, too close!)

(What if he suddenly becomes clingy?)

(Very likely.)

(As Hayasaka once said, boys are all beasts; once their blood boils, they become incredibly impulsive.)

(Won't I get pregnant if I post this?)

As a sheltered young lady who grew up in a 'sterile' environment, Kaguya Shinomiya has extremely limited knowledge of physiology and still believes that a kiss between a boy and a girl will result in pregnancy.

Under her own influence, the girl with long, straight black hair quickly blushed, her fair skin turning as red as the brilliant clouds at a summer evening, much to Amamiya Natsuki's surprise.

So... Shinomiya's blush just now wasn't because she wanted to sneeze, but because she was shy?

Where's the ice sculpture girl we were promised? She could clear the game in Ghost Academy without batting an eye, so why is she shy now?

Amamiya Natsuki held her breath.

He not only didn't impulsively approach her, but even quietly kept his distance.

If you see the child, that's fine; if you bully the child, you'll at most get a beating.

But if you bully Kaguya, Natsuki Amamiya will probably be feeding the fish in Tokyo Bay tonight.

Kaguya Shinomiya's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

next moment.

boom.

The door was suddenly pushed open.

"I, Hu Hansan, am back again."

The voice of a girl named Cancer of the Earth echoed throughout the room.

Amamiya Natsuki and Shinomiya Kaguya were startled, and a subtle feeling of guilt welled up in their hearts at the same time. Their eyes suddenly met.

A game prompt appeared in front of Kaguya Shinomiya's eyes.

[Game failed, progress reset to zero, please start the challenge again]

"Kaguya-chan, how's the mission going?"

Fujiwara Chika walked briskly to the two of them and asked in a clear voice.

Kaguya Shinomiya closed her eyes, pressed her slender, white fingers to her brow, took a deep breath, and bit her lower lip: "The mission failed."

"Huh? How could this be?" Fujiwara Chika asked, puzzled. "Why did it fail?"

Kaguya Shinomiya wore a dangerous smile, like a queen about to sign a death warrant.

"What do you think is the reason, Fujiwara-san?"

"Kaguya-chan's smile is terrifying!"
