It's Kushida Kikyo.
There was a smile on the other person's face, but beneath the mask of smile, there seemed to be a hint of coldness.
"It's Kushida-san, please come in." After letting Kushida Kikyo walk in, the boy reached out and closed the door.
"It's so late, Kushida-san, do you have something to talk to me about?"
After hearing the boy's question, Kushida Kikyo did not answer immediately, but began to look around in the dormitory, as if looking for something.
"?"
"What are you looking for, Kushida-san?"
"Who were you having dinner with just now, Hashima-san?"
The short-haired girl still had a smile on her face. She smelled the familiar fragrance again and stared at Hashima Hikaru's face.
"Oh, so that's what you wanted to know, Kushida-san?" Hashima Hikaru said calmly and gently, "It's Ichinose-san. She helped me choose the dishes today, so I cooked her a meal as a thank you."
"Didn't Kushida-san already see that?"
"....Yeah?"
After hearing this answer, Kushida Kikyo's expression suddenly changed, from the gentle and amiable little angel to the cold and indifferent look she had that night.
"It seems like you and Ichinose have a really good relationship."
"Well, we're classmates after all, so of course it'll be better."
Kushida suddenly took several steps forward and pressed himself against Hashima Hikaru's chest, saying word by word, "Don't forget what you promised me before. If you dare to reveal the secret to Ichinose..."
"Regarding this, Ichinose-san and I are just companions fighting side by side for the sake of the class. I won't tell her anything personal, so please rest assured, Kushida-san."
"It better be so!"
Kikyo Kushida stretched out her small hand and grabbed the collar of Hashima Hikaru's chest. After a few seconds, she let go and smoothed out the wrinkles.
"I will always keep an eye on you, don't betray me!"
"Did Kushida-san come to me today just to talk about this?" Hikaru Hashima touched his collar, a puzzled look on his face.
"Of course not. I have an important discovery to share with Hashima-san."
In a flash, the short-haired girl's expression returned to its previous gentle look, and then she took out her cell phone from her pocket.
Hiss, this guy is really skilled at changing his expression at will.
What a veteran actor.
"Hashima-san can see what this is."
After taking the other person's phone, Hashima Hikaru saw a very beautiful model photo. The girl in the picture had long red hair, was dressed very fashionably, and was smiling at the camera with full of energy.
"This is..."
"You can flip back and look at this. I just found it online. Does Hashima-san think this girl looks like someone?"
"You mean Sakura?"
Hashima Hikaru has always had a strong ability to distinguish. After flipping through several pictures of this type of model portraits, he quickly connected the person in the picture with the shy girl who liked to keep her head down.
After all, the [Stock Analyzer] clearly states that Sakura Airi works as a print model and blog idol. Is this a work photo she posted?
"Yes, besides the similar appearance and body shape, look at the last picture, Hashima-san. The background looks a lot like the dormitory of this school."
"Hmm...it feels like that."
Hashima Hikaru nodded pretentiously.
But since Sakura is so active online, why is she so timid in real life?
"I think this is probably why she was initially reluctant to help," Kushida analyzed his own thoughts. "After all, if she's hiding this side of herself, she naturally doesn't want to come into contact with more people, otherwise it might be exposed."
"But it's okay. Sakura just sent me a message, saying she's willing to help with Sudo's matter." Kushida smiled, a look of great satisfaction on his face. "It seems my trip to get her camera repaired today wasn't in vain."
"That's great! I hope you can get through this difficult time."
Hashima Hikaru nodded, but in his heart he was still thinking about the online photo of Sakura Airi that he had just seen. According to the information provided by the [Stock Analyzer], taking a photo with Sakura Airi can increase the stock price.
If I take the initiative to bring up this topic, will it bring us closer?
You still have to try it first.
Chapter 84: Coach, I want to learn photography
Since an expedited repair service had been booked, the next morning, Mitsuru Hashima was ready to start implementing his plan to get closer to Airi Sakura.
The idea is to start with her favorite photography. If you can really take photos with her, it means that the girl has accepted your existence.
So, Hikaru Hashima took out his cell phone and started calling the most useful "wingman" character.
Hashima Hikaru: Kushida-san, will you go get the camera with Sakura-san this afternoon?
Kushida Kikyo: Yes, since we already went there yesterday, let’s just get it done.
Hashima Hikaru: Can I come along? I'm actually a bit interested in photography.
Kushida Kikyo: Really?
The short-haired girl sitting in her seat at the moment felt a little puzzled after seeing this reply. She had never heard him mention this before when they went to the electronics store, so why did he suddenly become interested in photography?
Thinking of this, Kushida couldn't help but turn his head to look at the red-haired girl sitting in the back row of the class. She was always alone in the classroom, sitting in her seat without saying a word, and spent most of her time staring at the book in a daze.
Although he was a little confused by Hashima Hikaru's sudden words, Kushida replied quickly.
Kushida Kikyo: Sure, I'll go ask Sakura-san then.
Hashima Hikaru: Okay, I hope it won’t be troublesome for her.
After leaving her seat, Kushida Kikyo walked over to Sakura Airi's desk and asked in a friendly manner, "Sakura-san, can we have one more person come with us when we go get our camera today?"
"Eh?"
The girl raised her head. After hearing this, she almost instinctively wanted to refuse: "Um...do we really need to add one more person?"
"It's Hashima-san. He said he's interested in photography and wants to go with us."
Kushida, who had been trying to test the waters, saw Sakura Airi's eyes suddenly light up after she said this. She then replied, "Is it Hashima-san? Well... well then."
"Won't Sakura-san find this bothersome?"
"Um... no."
Sakura Airi shook her head slightly. She actually wanted to chat with Hashima Hikaru, but firstly, she didn't have his contact information, and secondly, she didn't dare to go to Class A to find him, so she could only keep this idea in her heart for the time being.
Now that she heard that the other party wanted to go together and even mentioned his interest in photography, the idea of anticipation immediately took root in the girl's heart, making her quite concerned about the meeting in the afternoon.
"Well, I'll just tell him directly then."
After taking a deep look at the expression on Sakura's face, Kushida returned to his seat with a smile and started typing on the keyboard.
Kushida Kikyo: Sakura-san agreed, so Hashima-san will go with us later.
Hashima Hikaru: Okay, are you guys going straight after school? Then I'll wait for you at the entrance of the Keyaki shopping center.
Kushida Kikyo: Sure, see you this afternoon.
After finishing the chat, the short-haired girl held her phone tightly, with complicated thoughts in her mind.
From her perspective, this classmate Sakura has always maintained an invisible image in the class, never talking to anyone. No matter whether male or female, she cannot communicate well with her, and naturally she has no friends.
But during yesterday's action, Kushida Kikyo remembered that this Sakura classmate took the initiative to look at Hashima Hikaru's face at least twice, and her attitude towards him was very subtle.
She usually looks like she doesn't want to interact with anyone, but now, facing a boy from another class, she actually tacitly agrees to act together with him?
And that bastard Hikaru Hashima, this guy suddenly expressed interest in photography, is it for Sakura?
The silent Kikyo Kushida pinched the eraser on the table, with a cold and hard light flashing in her eyes, but after thinking for a long time, she suddenly realized why she often thought about that guy recently, and even cared about what he was thinking.
The short-haired girl can now confirm that the fragrance that appeared in Hashima Hikaru's dormitory was left by Ichinose Honami. These two people are obviously single, so do they often eat alone in the dormitory?
"This guy is really popular with women..."
Kushida gritted her teeth. After the "handprint" incident that night, Hashima Hikaru's immediate expression of his feelings still made her very satisfied. The girl could still feel the gentle emotion from him.
But the current situation made her feel a little unhappy. She couldn't figure out whether she was afraid that the other party would leak the secret, or she was afraid that the other party...
With this in mind, Kushida Kikyo reached out and pressed her temples to stop the random thoughts in her mind. She forced herself to focus on preparing for the next course. After all, Kushida, the little angel who is good at making friends, is also a good student who is trustworthy in terms of academic ability.
On the other hand, Mitsuru Hashima naturally had no idea about the girl's complicated thoughts. He was sitting in his seat searching for introductory photography knowledge on his mobile phone.
After all, if you want to use this method to open up a conversation with Sakura Airi later, you only need to master some basics in advance, and the rest can be used as material for questions.
When Ichinose Honami saw that Hashima Hikari was searching for photography-related content, she came over curiously and asked, "Hashima-san, are you interested in photography lately?"
"There may be some."
Hashima Hikaru laughed it off. He naturally couldn't tell the pink-haired girl in front of him the whole story, so he just tried to get away with it.
"Then can you take pictures of me from now on, Hashima-san?" Ichinose blinked her beautiful blue eyes and asked, staring at Hashima Hikaru's face.
"Um... I haven't even gotten started yet. I'm probably still a long way from being able to take photos for others."
Hikaru Hashima didn't want to refuse directly, so she steered the conversation to make it more tolerant: "Maybe if I don't learn it by then, I might just give up."
"How could that be? I believe that whatever Hashima-san learns, he will be very fast. I have confidence in you."
"Well, let's talk about it after I master some techniques first."
Mitsuru Hashima nodded and continued to search for relevant photography knowledge, doing as much homework as possible.
After school in the afternoon, the boy told Ichinose Honami that he had something to do and left.
Since he has decided to become a master operator in the future, Hashima Hikaru plans to reduce the time he spends with Ichinose Honami from now on. After all, if he uses interest as an excuse, at least he doesn't have to worry about the girl having wild thoughts.
When he arrived at the entrance of the Keyaki Shopping Center, Mitsuru Hashima waited for a few minutes before he saw two familiar figures, one walking in front with ease, and the other following behind with his head lowered.
It seems that Sakura is still not used to going out with others. I don’t know if her personality can change in the future.
"Good afternoon, Hashima-san!" Kushida greeted the boy energetically.
"Hashima-san...good afternoon..."
Sakura mustered up the courage to look at Hashima Hikaru's face and greeted him in a somewhat low voice.
"Good afternoon, let's go to the electronics store and help Sakura-san get her camera back."
Mitsuru Hashima smiled and gestured for the two to set off quickly. After walking for about a few minutes, the group arrived at the same electronics store as yesterday.
Thinking of what happened yesterday when Sakura was facing the clerk, the boy asked gently: "Sakura, just stand behind me and let me communicate with him."
"Is this okay?" Seeing the concern in the other person's eyes, the red-haired girl felt a little embarrassed.
"Of course, I can also use this opportunity to ask him about various cameras. Maybe I should buy a basic model to try out later."
"Really? Well, I can recommend something to Hashima-san. There's one I really like..."
After hearing the boy's words, Sakura's eyes lit up and she looked very interested.
"Sure, but let me try it with my phone first, so I can get a feel for taking photos, and then we can talk about choosing a camera."
Seeing the girl showing interest, Mitsuru Hashima nodded in his heart. It turned out to be faster to follow the instructions. This would be a good method.
Seeing this, Kushida, who was almost a bystander, forced a smile and said, "Then let's go quickly. Don't keep Sakura's camera waiting."
When I came to the counter again, it was indeed the bearded male clerk who greeted me.
However, this time, when she saw the other person appear, Airi Sakura immediately stood behind the boy as Hashima Mitsuru had just reminded her, and didn't want to make any eye contact with him at all.
The girl definitely didn't want to experience the nausea and fear she experienced yesterday again.
"welcome."
"Oh, it's you guys. Are you here to pick up your camera?"
When the man saw everyone, his eyes immediately wanted to capture the figure of the red-haired person.
Unfortunately, the next second he was met with the boy's calm face, which immediately frightened him.
"Since it's been repaired, could you please just bring the camera over? We're really anxious."
"this..."
Since Hashima Hikaru was more than a head taller than Sakura Airi, the clerk couldn't see the girl's face at all because of the boy's broad body.
"Why, didn't they say it was fixed?" Hashima Hikaru smiled, his eyes sweeping across the clerk's face. "Could it be that the expedited fee we paid is wasted?"
