Chapter 218 Something's Wrong with Asuna, Poor Hori Kyoko (Please Subscribe~)

Yuuko Ichihara really didn't know that Alice's father owned a large multinational corporation, but judging from this, there's no way Alice could inherit Totsuki Culinary Arts.

As for Alice's father, Nakiri Munee, do you expect a merchant to come to a culinary academy and become someone like the current so-called Gourmet Demon King, Nakiri Senzaemon? His abilities simply wouldn't allow it.

"Eh? What's wrong?"

"We've arrived at our destination, what else could it be? Let's go."

"Huh?! Only four stops?!"

"Yeah, but I'm too lazy to walk, and it's lunchtime! Lunchtime!"

Yuko Ichihara rolled her eyes but didn't say anything, since she was too lazy to walk anyway. After walking with Rindou Kobayashi for a while, Yuko Ichihara asked in confusion, "Rindou, did you make a reservation?"

"Hmm? No appointment is needed for this time."

"Huh?! Is that even a saying?"

"Of course, I told you the shop isn't big. Come with me."

"Oh...."

Just as they were walking towards a shop, on the other side, on the rooftop, Hori Kyoko and the others were all there, but there was also a beautiful girl with golden hair.

The scene shifts back to a previous point...

"Phew! get out of class is finally over!"

"Yuki, remember to hand in your chemistry report."

"Ugh... Kyoko... Can I borrow this from you...?"

"I give up... Oh right! Asuna!"

Asuna, who was about to eat, paused, turned around, and saw Hori Kyoko waving at her. Asuna Yuuki hesitated for a moment before asking in confusion, "Kyoko, what's wrong?"

"Asuna, didn't you say we were going to talk about summer vacation at noon?"

Asuna paused for a moment before exclaiming, "Oh! I almost forgot... Fukami, Aoi... um... am I the only one who forgot?"

As soon as Asuna turned her head, she saw Nanami Minami and Hinami Aoi sitting quietly in their chairs, watching her. Asuna felt a little embarrassed; she had forgotten again, but it wasn't because of a bad memory, it was mainly...

The main reason was that she was lost in thought all morning and even spaced out in class, which is why she forgot. Otherwise, she really wouldn't have forgotten.

Hinami Aoi tilted her head and asked in confusion, "Asuna, what's wrong with you today? You seem out of sorts."

"Yeah, yeah, you seem out of sorts, no... you haven't been in sorts lately."

Yuki Yoshikawa nodded, striking a detective's pose, and said, "I have a feeling that Asuna must have encountered something extraordinary, like... you're in a relationship!"

"Eh?!" x3

"Huh? Me? Dating...wait...wait! Dating with whom?!"

Seeing Asuna's face turn bright red, Yoshikawa Yuki covered her mouth and chuckled, while Hori Kyoko sighed and said, "Yuki, you'd better stop teasing Asuna."

"Okay, okay, but Asuna, are you really alright?"

"It's alright, it's alright. Let's go find a place where we can talk."

Aoi Hinami said irritably, "You might as well just say the rooftop. There's nowhere easier to talk than the rooftop."

"Yeah... Let's go, let's go. Hey? Yuki, Kyoko, you two brought lunch today?"

Yoshikawa Yuki said somewhat helplessly, "Dad left very early today, so Mom got up early to prepare breakfast. Since she had enough time, she also prepared a bento for me."

Asuna said with a helpless expression, "Yuki, you can prepare it yourself. Aoi, you and Fukami made it yourselves, right?"

"Yes." x2

Yoshikawa Yuki said decisively, "I can't get up, thank you."

“Uh…” x4

Hori Kyoko said with a helpless expression, "You're doing it because your uncle has to work the early shift, and I'm doing it because my mom has to work the early shift... We're the complete opposite."

Asuna said with a hint of helplessness, "Auntie is really busy, but sometimes I really want to say... Kyoko, sometimes you really do act like a mother."

"Huh? I don't think so..."

Aoi Hina rolled her eyes and said, "She goes to buy groceries after school, picks up her younger brother from school, takes care of the family, does housework, and..."

Hori Kyoko's eye twitched slightly as she said, "I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a little sorry for myself..."

"Pfft..." x4

Kyoko Hori said with some doubt, "Hey, Asuna, you've been acting really strange lately. Are you still thinking about that thing? You can't be...."

Asuna sighed and said, "Let's talk about it later... We've arrived..."

Asuna opened the door and, seeing the cloudless sky, breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "The weather is really nice today..."

Nanami Sumina sighed and said, "Even if I'm good, it's useless. I have to train tonight, Aoi, you too, right...?"

"Definitely... but I'm about to be a senior in high school, and I've already decided to quit the club."

Nanami nods and says, "That's what I'm planning too. I might as well use that time to study properly; maybe I can improve a lot."

Kyoko Hori sighed and said, "You two weren't bad students to begin with..."

"I don't want to talk to a top student like you..." x2

That's right, out of these five people, only one is an average student. That's right, it's the one named Yoshikawa Yuki. The four people in front of you are all top students. Nanami Fukami and Hinami Aoi are good friends and rivals, so they also compete with each other in their studies.

Aoi Hinami is undoubtedly a top student, so Nami Nanami is no less so. As for Asuna and Kyoko Hori, they are also genuine top students.

Actually, Yoshikawa Yuki's studies are not bad, just a little weaker compared to these four top students. Hori Kyoko tilted her head and said, "Hmm... if you guys want to quit the club, then we can all study together during the winter break."

"Huh? I think I've forgotten something..."

"Hmm? What have you forgotten?"

"Hmm... Asuna, why don't you tell me what's on your mind first?"

"Okay, first of all, I'm not sure about the time and place for our summer vacation trip yet."

"Eh?" x4

Chapter 219 The Girl Who Arrived Suddenly, Hori Kyoko and the Others' Plans (Please Subscribe~)

The group was taken aback by Asuna's words. Why were they suddenly so uncertain? But they all knew that Asuna was reliable, so they remained silent and waited for her to continue.

Asuna breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Because I went to Manager Shiraha's shop for breakfast a few days ago, I told Manager Shiraha that I wanted him to prepare some pre-processed barbecue ingredients for the summer vacation."

Hori Kyoko nodded and said, "I know that, you told me that, and then what?"

"Then the store manager and his team will be open for a few days, and then they will go on a trip and won't be back for a while."

"Huh?! Is that so? Then let's prepare it ourselves."

Asuna nodded and said, "That's what I was thinking too. I didn't have any intention of going to the beach too early, and neither do you, right?"

"Yeah!" x4

If you go too early, it won't be too hot, and there won't be too many people, because many people are catching up on homework or working overtime just to have a good time, and they might also do some part-time jobs so they can have more money when they go out to play.

Summer beaches should be filled with gentle sea breezes and rolling waves. Imagine sitting on a crowded beach under a large parasol, swimming and playing in the water with friends, having a barbecue, chatting, and enjoying the Japanese custom of eating watermelons. So going so early is pointless, and they won't have time if it's too early anyway.

Hori Kyoko nodded and said, "Yeah, going to the beach too early is pointless, and there's probably no time to go too early anyway. Everyone probably only has more free time in the middle or later part of summer vacation."

"Yeah!" x3

Hinami Aoi thought for a moment and said, "So, the reason you said the location was uncertain is because you wanted to discuss with everyone where to go and when to go?"

Asuna shook her head and said, "No, when I first had this idea, Lucifer and the others said that since they'd be back from their summer trip around the middle to late part of the year, and their final destination was some beach in Japan, we should just go find them..."

Yoshikawa Yuki paused for a moment and said, "Eh?! So, Hina, the uncertainty you mentioned is because you're unsure when Manager Shiraha and the others will return, and you don't even know which beach they went to?"

Asuna sighed and nodded, while Hori Kyoko hesitated for a moment before saying, "But wouldn't that be too much trouble for Manager Shiraha and the others...?"

"That's what I said too, and Lucifer and the others just confirmed it... so..."

Hinami Aoi sighed and said, "So, does this mean we don't need to prepare anything for a moment? But Manager Shiraha and the others are probably going to a really amazing beach..."

Yoshikawa Yuki swallowed hard and said, "What I'm more concerned about is... if that's the case, it must be a beach in another city, right?"

Asuna thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "Pretty much. After all, the beaches in Tokyo aren't a great choice. If it were me, I wouldn't choose this place either."

Everyone nodded, and Hori Kyoko sighed, saying, "It feels a bit unreal that everything has suddenly been resolved..."

"Hmm..." x4

After chatting for a while, Aoi Hinami suddenly clapped her hands and said, "Oh! I remember! It's about going to study during winter break, right?"

Hori Kyoko nodded, and Hinami Aoi said with a smile, "Manager Shiraha said before that if you want to prepare for exams, you can come to the store. There are many people, so we can help Xiaoqiong with her studies. The store is very quiet during the day, and Manager Shiraha and the others can also help tutor you if you have any questions."

Hori Kyoko paused for a moment and said, "Huh? Are Manager Shiraha and the others all doing very well in their studies?"

"They all seem to be top students and high achievers from prestigious universities. And I heard from Xiaoqiong when she was playing games that there was a girl named Yuno Gasai who was incredibly good at studying."

How powerful is it? x4

Asuna thought for a moment and said, "Oh! You're not talking about that genius girl who perfectly completed that test paper, are you? I saw her before; she seemed very well-behaved. I didn't expect her to be so amazing..."

Yuki Yoshikawa exclaimed in surprise, "What?! It's that hardest test paper where only three people got a perfect score?! She's a true academic genius! Rumor has it that she even broke our student council president's record!"

Hori Kyoko said with some surprise, "I didn't expect her to be in the store too. This is really something... But can she handle it? After all, it's high school level knowledge."

Hinami Aoi tilted her head and said, "After all, it seems like there's a top student to do research with. And I heard from Xiaoqiong that she skipped a grade. She went to the second year of high school because she didn't want to discourage the third-year students and ruin the rankings, and also to experience high school life."

Several people's eyes twitched. Goodness, this is no ordinary act of willfulness. But what she meant was that Yuno Gasai's knowledge of high school was also fine.

Kyoko Hori sighed and said, "That's really impressive... Eh? In that case, could we bring Sota along too?"

Asuna nodded and said, "Yeah, that makes sense. You're worried about Sota being home alone, so having someone at the shop to keep an eye on him and prevent him from slipping and falling in the winter will also solve the problem of meals."

Hori Kyoko's eyes lit up and she nodded, saying, "Okay! Then it's decided. It just so happens that Sota asks me every day when we're going to the store again."

"Sōta should be very happy now..."

"Yeah... huh? Someone's here?"

Before Hori Kyoko could finish speaking, she heard footsteps and then saw a girl running out. The girl was very pretty and had a great figure, with long golden hair.

Seeing this scene, Hori Kyoko and the other four were all stunned. What was going on? How did a golden fluffy thing suddenly appear? What was it trying to do?

"Ah! Yuki! Fukami!"

After looking around, the girl spotted Hori Kyoko and the others sitting not far away, each holding their own bento box. The five of them were also taken aback when they saw who it was.

"Huh?! What brings you here?!" z5

Chapter 220 Hori Kyoko and the others' junior, a lucky girl (Please subscribe~)

At this moment, Hori Kyoko and the others were all surprised. They never expected that this person would come. They still had a good impression of this girl who was a year younger than them.

The girl walked over and said with a smile, "I've been looking for you all, I didn't expect you to be on the rooftop."

Hori Kyoko tilted her head and said, "Eh? What brings you here?"

The girl grinned and said, "Hori-senpai..."

Kyoko Hori raised an eyebrow and said cautiously, "That expression of yours is definitely not normal... What are you going to do...?"

The girl sighed and said, "Do I seem like a scheming person?"

"Yeah!" x5

The girl felt as if she'd been shot in the knee. Seeing the girl's utterly bewildered state, Nanami Fukami chuckled and said, "Alright, alright, what's wrong? Weren't you supposed to be in the first period later...?"

The girl's eyes twitched, then she clasped her hands together and said, "That's not the point! Hori-senpai! Yuuki-senpai! Nanami-senpai! Hinami-senpai! Yoshikawa-senpai! Senpai! I have something important to ask you! Please!"

Looking at the girl in front of them, Asuna and the others were also stunned. Aoi Hinami said in confusion, "Seeking confirmation? What confirmation? Do you have a crush on some second-year student? You don't need to ask us, none of us have ever been in a relationship."

The girl's lips twitched as she said, "Um... why can you talk about being single so confidently, Senior Hinami?"
