Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

A saleswoman came over immediately, and then she and Misaki Shokuhou talked quietly for a while before leaving.

"what happened?"

The two weren't speaking loudly, and there was still a slight distance between Haramura Makoto and Shokuhou Misaki, so he didn't hear what Shokuhou Misaki was saying.

"It's nothing, I just asked her to call the designer over."

"Although the clothing designs here are quite good, if you really want to showcase a person's physical condition, custom-made clothing is still the best."

……

time?

How long has this waste actually lasted?

The two of them came out at a time that was definitely not late, but it was already midday, and the sun was scorching.

This clearly shows just how much time they wasted in that shop.

"But is this what custom-made clothes are like? It seems even more complicated than buying them directly."

He raised his hand to shield his head, his fingers pressed tightly together to prevent the bright sunlight from penetrating, and Makoto Haramura's voice was not as energetic as before.

"It's just because it's the first time I've customized the data, and buying clothes isn't always easy either."

Misaki Shokuhou quickly took two steps and stood under the shade of a tree; the sweltering heat was a huge negative factor for her as well.

"Besides, you boys never pick and choose when you buy clothes, you just grab them, that's how you get things done so quickly."

"However, the design drawings you provided before were quite good, weren't they?"

Opening her bag and taking out a parasol, Misaki Shokuhou waved to Makoto Haramura from under the shade of a tree.

"It seems pretty good."

Makoto Haramura immediately understood and walked over to take the parasol from Misaki Shokuhou, then opened it.

He didn't bring up what had just happened again, because doing so would only make things seem too distant.

Although Misaki Shokuhou spent a very, very large sum of money, for her, the least valuable thing in her life was probably money.

It's just a few outfits.

"Where are we going? We can't just leave here, can we?"

The parasol was placed over Misaki Shokuhou's head, and the two stood side by side.

"Of course, less than a third of the day has passed here."

Misaki Shokuhou, her small hands wrapped in white lace spider silk gloves, clasped her fingers together, and her expression suddenly became somewhat shy and coy.

"Speaking of which, it must be very hot today."

"In such hot weather, there's probably only one activity I can imagine."

Anticipation, their expressions were full of anticipation.

The look of anticipation in Misaki Shokuhou's eyes was so full it was almost overflowing.

She was waiting for Makoto Haramura to give her the answer she wanted.

"Haha, of course you can go to the pool, but the problem is, you probably can't swim at all."

"And even if it's just casual water play, these kinds of places in Academy City are usually packed with people in this weather, right? Can you handle that?"

No matter how you look at it, to be honest, there's only one answer.

When it comes to summer, the only relatively comfortable way to have fun, besides staying in an air-conditioned room, is playing in the water.

"You don't need to worry about that."

"Of course they've already come up with the perfect solution. Right now, there's obviously something else to worry about than this."

Misaki Shokuhou seemed pleased, even though she had anticipated that Makoto Haramura would not object.

But for her, being able to continue with today's most important event was perfect.

"The others?"

"What could it be?"

It was that expectant look in her eyes again, that sparkling gaze.

"swimsuit?"

Makoto Haramura's lips twitched.

"What's with that expression?"

"The look on your face means you have absolutely no expectations for my swimsuit."

Misaki Shokuhou directly said what he actually wanted to say, but in that moment of mental blankness, he was completely unaware that the surrounding air and atmosphere had completely changed, and instead continued speaking on his own:

"In the end, there's nothing to look forward to about the physique of a junior high school student whose development is below average."

"However, you are very beautiful, so it is normal to have a little flaw."

"Besides, you're still young now. When you grow up, you'll still have some of that. Don't be discouraged."

Makoto Haramura, who was rambling on and on, was completely unaware that he was already enveloped by wisps of black mist.

"Hey, can you shut up for now?"

Chapter 019 A Distorted Aesthetic View

To be honest, through Misaki Shokuhou, Makoto Haramura once again realized just how luxurious the lives of these aristocratic young ladies were.

During holidays like this, both indoor and outdoor swimming pools are always packed with people.

Misaki Shokuhou, who dislikes crowds and has always abhorred such occasions, would never set foot in such a place.

But today, the swimming pool is a must-do activity for Misaki Shokuhou.

So she brought Makoto Haramura with her.

We arrived at this magnificent villa, which has a modern European architectural style.

"Hmm, is this your family's property?"

"No, it's not."

Misaki Shokuhou wagged her finger, stood at the entrance of the villa, took out the remote control from her handbag, and pressed a button casually.

Only a few seconds passed.

The once quiet villa was suddenly filled with a cacophony of footsteps.

Approaching them was a girl with gray-purple curly hair, wearing a Tokiwadai school uniform, walking in a large procession with about ten maids.

"I'm so sorry, Your Majesty, for keeping you waiting."

The girl with purple curly hair had just stopped in front of Misaki Shokuhou when she immediately bowed deeply in apology.

"do not worry about it."

"It's because I just informed you that everything is ready, right?"

The iron gate slowly opened to the left and right, and Misaki Shokuhou waved her hand, indicating that the purple-haired girl in front of her didn't need to care at all.

"Although it was a bit rushed, everything is ready."

"So, is this the guest Your Majesty wishes to invite?"

The purple-haired girl's gaze shifted to Makoto Haramura, her gray eyes reflecting his figure with curiosity.

As the second-in-command of the Shokuhou faction, she is a guard who often follows Shokuhou Misaki.

This was the first time she had ever seen Misaki Shokuhou in that state since she first met her.

He seemed troubled, incoherent, and full of tender affection.

She looked exactly like a young girl in the throes of first love.

So she was very curious, very curious about which one could make the queen she served behave in this way.

"Runzi, shouldn't we introduce ourselves first? That would be more in accordance with etiquette."

Before Haramura Makoto could reply, Shokuhou Misaki took over the conversation, but her response was more of a reprimand than an introduction.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, it was my rudeness."

Junko Hokaze immediately realized her mistake and straightened her posture.

"Junko Hokaze, a first-year student at Tokiwadai Middle School, is a follower of the Queen."

“Makoto Haramura, a friend of Ms. Shokuhou, I apologize for disturbing you today.”

It was a very normal, superficial way of getting to know each other. With Misaki Shokuhou's intervention, the two didn't talk much more, and Junko Hokaze left with all the maids in the villa.

We bypassed the main gate and courtyard of the villa and came to the backyard from the side of the villa.

The purpose of his and Misaki Shokuhou's visit here today thus became clear.

The backyard is the size of a football field, and the swimming pool takes up about half of it.

There were seven or eight lounge chairs around the swimming pool, and each chair had a table with cut fruit and chilled juice on it.

As for the area above the pool, half of it is shaded by large parasols.

"This is Runzi's villa."

"Although I could use my own pool, the pool in my villa isn't as spacious as Runzi's, so I thought it would be better to borrow hers instead."

He leisurely walked to the front of the recliner, sat down, and gracefully picked up the juice on the table and took a sip.

As mentioned before, the students at Tokiwadai are almost all noble ladies from all over the world.

They sent their daughter to this city, but of course, they didn't completely abandon her.

Almost every family has some degree of cooperation with Academy City, or rather, sending their daughters here is part of showing their sincerity in the cooperation.

In short, given their relationship, every inch of land in Academy City is incredibly valuable, and they are always guaranteed a plot of land.

As for why Misaki Shokuhou and Junko Hokaze don't live at home...

These are Tokiwadai's school rules; there's no need to elaborate.

"It's a great place. In a place like this, even if you learn to swim slowly, no one will laugh at you."

"Who said I chose this place because of this kind of problem?"

"I chose this place simply because it's quiet, you know? I'm sure I can learn it very quickly."

She remains calm and composed in the face of both honor and disgrace; this is the demeanor befitting the number one psycho-elemental ability user in Academy City.

But after meeting this man, she really couldn't control her emotions.

Misaki Shokuhou stubbornly stuck out her neck, not blushing at all.

"Never mind, I'll go change into my swimsuit first."

"Just change here."

The chances of learning to swim are extremely low, but whether you learn it or not doesn't really matter.

The main thing is my own swimsuit.

I must correct this man's distorted aesthetic sense today.

Clutching a small bag labeled 'BALANEAIRE', Misaki Shokuhou walked into the villa with her head held high, like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

"trouble."

With a helpless sigh, Makoto Haramura picked up the bag beside him and walked towards the makeshift changing room by the pool.

……

"So, it's just a matter of changing into a swimsuit."

"Why does it take so long if I don't need to wear makeup?"

Relaxing on the recliner, with glass after glass of juice on the table, Makoto Haramura was indescribably comfortable and at ease.

He can change into his swimsuit much more easily; he takes off one outfit at a time and the whole process takes no more than three seconds.
