People are teaching, my love stock market just wants to be full

"In that case, we should be able to file a complaint. After all, points can't be wasted."

After hearing the teenager's threat, the clerk's face immediately changed. He had spent a lot of money to become a clerk here. If he was complained about, it would be very troublesome.

"Of course...of course it's fixed. Please wait a moment."

The male clerk swiftly took out Sakura's pink camera from the cabinet at the back. He originally wanted to hand it to Sakura personally, but when he saw that the boy had no intention of moving his position, he had to hand the camera to him.

"Well, thank you."

After giving the clerk a nonchalant reply, Hashima Hikaru turned around and returned the camera to the red-haired girl in front of him, saying softly, "Sakura-san, please check it first to see if it can be used normally."

"Ah."

Sakura nodded seriously and lowered her head to test the functions of her camera. Before taking it for repair, she had already removed her memory card. After all, there were so many important photos in it that she must not let others see it.

After some simple operations, the girl watched the screen light up again. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She looked up at Hashima Hikaru's eyes and said softly, "Hashima-san, the camera has been repaired."

"That's good. Can you wait for me for a moment? I have something to ask this clerk."

Hashima Hikaru signaled Kushida to take the girl to the side so that he could have a one-on-one chat with the clerk.

The guy's gaze that was about to peek at Sakura Airi was caught by the boy again. Coupled with the weird attitude he showed yesterday, Hashima Hikaru had a lot of doubts in his heart, so he planned to test it out.

Chapter 85 Can we be friends?

When Kushida Kikyo and Sakura Airi walked to the rest area next to the entrance of the electronics store, Hashima Hikaru met the male clerk's gaze again.

"Um, Mr. Clerk, I'd like to ask you about my camera, is that okay?"

"Uh, what's the problem..."

The clerk was a little angry when he saw Sakura Airi being taken far away by the short-haired girl. However, facing the boy's calm question, he remembered the threat he had just made, so he quickly said, "Is this student trying to pick out a camera?"

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have come here a second time."

Hashima Hikaru shrugged his shoulders and said that it was true. He could make up any answer to gain people's trust. Since this guy was a clerk here, it was impossible for him to drive away interested customers.

Logically speaking, since this artificial island is completely enclosed, it means that the staff here should have been selected long ago. Even if there is personnel flow, it should not be too frequent.

Airi Sakura is a new student who has just been enrolled for over a month. No matter how you think about it, the clerk should not know her, unless he knew her before the girl enrolled.

Sakura's behavior yesterday was not at all like she was facing an acquaintance. Not only did she show fear, but she was also very resistant to his gaze.

This means that this guy is very likely to have a one-sided acquaintance with Sakura, but Sakura doesn't know it.

After a quick mental review, the boy asked questions using the photography knowledge he had quickly acquired that morning.

"Um, among cameras, is there a big difference between cameras that take pictures of people and cameras that take pictures of scenery?"

"There is indeed a difference. The parameters required for photographing portraits and landscapes are somewhat different." The clerk began to explain his experience. "If you are a beginner, you need to find the point that you are used to."

"If I'm looking to take portraits, does the store clerk have any camera recommendations?"

Hashima Hikaru continued asking, his eyes sweeping over the various camera samples on the counter, but in fact he was always paying attention to the other person's expression.

"For portraits, I recommend this camera. Its parameters and effects are excellent in all aspects."

Hearing this, the clerk subconsciously pointed his palm at a camera that had been placed next to him. It was also a pink camera, and seemed a bit similar to Sakura's.

"What model of camera is this? Is it expensive?"

After taking a few glances, Hashima Hikaru was about to reach out and touch the camera, but was stopped by the clerk.

"Well, this sample cannot be used by customers for the time being," the clerk's eyes bulged after seeing what Hashima Hikaru did, and he quickly reached out to take the camera back.

He explained to the boy somewhat awkwardly, "Because this camera broke down a while ago, and the repair parts are still on the way, so I can't take pictures right now."

"is it?"

Mitsuru Hashima touched his chin. This guy really can't lie. He obviously seems to care about this camera, but he made up such a lame excuse.

If it's broken, why are you so nervous?

Wouldn't it be the same result if I were to discover it directly?

After taking the camera back, the male clerk looked at Hashima Hikaru's thoughtful expression and became impatient. So he quickly asked, "Has this student chosen the camera he wants to buy?"

"Oh... Let's wait a little longer."

After understanding the other party's hint, Hashima Hikaru showed a somewhat apologetic look on his face and replied, "I don't have enough personal points right now. How about we come back next month to buy a camera? Sorry, clerk-san."

"..."

Although he started cursing in his heart, as a worker in the service field, the male clerk knew that there were some things he absolutely could not say out loud, otherwise he would definitely be fired.

"It's okay. If you're interested, you can come again next month."

"Yes, I will. I'll be leaving now."

Hashima Hikaru left the counter without any reluctance and reunited with the two girls.

"I asked about cameras, but they're a bit too expensive. So I'll try using my phone first."

The boy pretended to sigh with regret and said to Sakura Airi beside him, "If you use a cell phone, you should be able to take a picture, right?"

“Yes, it’s not as good as a camera, but it can still produce good results.”

Sakura Airi, who often takes selfies with her phone, naturally understands the convenience of mobile phones. After seeing that the boy seems to be really interested in photography, she took the initiative to say, "If Hashima-san really wants to use a camera, I can lend it to you..."

Looking at the pink blush on the girl's face, Hashima Hikaru just shook his head calmly and replied softly, "I'm not particularly anxious yet. Let me try with my phone first."

"Now that the camera is fixed, why don't we go take some photos together later?" Hashima Hikaru suggested to her with a smile, "Would Sakura be willing?"

"Yeah... sure."

"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. If you want to take pictures, come with me."

Seeing that these two people had inexplicably become fellow enthusiasts in the field of photography, Kikyo Kushida didn't want to stay here as an invisible person anymore.

The short-haired girl looked up and took a deep look at Mitsuru Hashima's expression, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't speak. Instead, she said goodbye and left.

"Goodbye, Kushida-san."

"Well, it seems that there are only two of us left. Will Sakura feel a little uncomfortable?" Hashima Hikaru whispered to the girl's thoughts.

"No, if Hashima-san wants to learn photography..." Sakura Airi squeezed her hands tightly and said with courage, "I can offer some advice."

She originally said she could teach him, but after thinking about it, she felt that this was too rude, so she changed it to offering advice.

"Is it really possible?"

A look of surprise appeared on Hashima Hikaru's face, and with a hint of excitement in his tone, he said to the girl, "Thank you so much! If I had a guide to lead me, my photography journey would definitely be very smooth."

"Thank you, Sakura-san."

"No, I'm not a great photographer..." The girl shook her head, and a blush appeared on her cheeks again.

Hikaru Hashima thought to himself, since she said that, shouldn't he strike while the iron is hot and move forward a little bit?

So the boy asked Sakura Airi in a gentle voice: "Since we both like photography, then...can I be friends with Sakura-san?"

"!"

After hearing these words, Sakura Airi's heart trembled immediately, and she looked at Hashima Hikaru's face nervously and shyly. The boy's expression was always gentle, and all she could feel was considerate emotions.

"As for friends...Hashima-san, are you really willing to be friends with someone like me?" Sakura Airi asked this question with almost all her strength.

"Of course I do. It was Sakura who was willing to help me, so of course I want to be friends with you." The boy looked at the red-haired girl in front of him with bright eyes.

"In that case...I agree to be Hashima-san's friend."

Despite being shy and uncomfortable, Sakura Airi still agreed.

She wanted to take a closer look at what kind of person this young man was, the first one who could make her feel completely different inside.

"Yeah, then from now on, we're friends, Sakura-san."

As soon as he finished speaking, the system prompt sounded on time.

[Due to our common interests and your gentle attitude, Sakura Airi agrees to be friends with you. Sakura Airi's stock price has increased by 10 points and is currently at 50.]

The needle doesn't poke, Sakura-san.

Chapter 86 It’s time to increase the strength of Kushida

After actively inviting Airi Sakura to agree to be friends with him, Hikari Ueshima was quite satisfied when he saw the stock price rising to 50 points. The girl had 5000 shares, and if the stock price did not decrease in the future, she would have earned 10 yuan, and she could continue to earn more in the future.

So Hashima Hikaru's expression became more and more gentle, and he accompanied Sakura Airi to stroll around the campus. It was at this time that he discovered that this red-haired girl was very familiar with all the quiet and deserted places on campus. She probably found the photo-taking spots by herself so that she would not be disturbed by others.

Hikaru Hashima, who has a basic understanding of photography, is originally a novice, while Airi Sakura, who is extremely good at taking pictures, fully plays the role of a teacher. Although she looked shy and taciturn before, when talking about photography, her explanation was very vivid, and a light of passion floated in her beautiful eyes.

This is probably how happy she looks when she is usually photographed.

Although Airi Sakura's outfit looked a bit rustic at this time, and she was wearing a pair of red-framed glasses that covered her eyes, Hikari Hashima could feel her love for photography. No wonder she was also a blog idol and print model.

"Hashima-san, look here! If you adjust the angle, you can get a different effect."

Airi Sakura looked at the boy next to her who was very cooperative, and carefully guided him to use his mobile phone to capture different scenery.

"Yeah, this angle is pretty good. You can even see the reflections of the trees."

Hashima Hikaru was amazed and showed a very studious look with a very serious expression.

"Yes, this angle is very good. It seems that Hashima-san is very talented."

Standing very close to the boy, Sakura Airi could feel the boyish aura coming towards her.

This feeling made her a little shy at first, but as she devoted herself to the photography time, Sakura Airi found that she gradually got used to this atmosphere.

Anyway, since Hashima-san and I are already friends, it shouldn't be a big deal if we're closer.

The girl convinced herself in her heart and continued to accompany Hashima Hikaru to various less crowded places in the school. This allowed Hashima Hikaru to collect some information that she had never known before.

Hiss, this Sakura-san is really something.

The two's filming trip lasted about two hours. Seeing that a thin layer of sweat had appeared on the forehead of the girl next to him, Hashima Hikaru decided that it should be over for the day.

"Huh, this one finally makes me somewhat satisfied."

The boy handed the last landscape picture he had taken to Sakura Airi, then he lowered his head and pretended to check the time. He said, "Time flies! It's already six o'clock."

"When do you usually have dinner, Sakura-san?"

"Well..."

Hearing what the other party said, Sakura Airi immediately reacted. She had been extremely engaged from the beginning and almost forgot the passage of time. It was indeed time for dinner now.

"I'm probably about the same as everyone else, around six o'clock is fine."

"Well, since Sakura-san has taught me so much about photography today, let me treat you to dinner today."

Hashima Hikaru suggested with a smile, not giving the other party a chance to refuse. He quickly added, "Don't refuse, since we're friends, it's normal for us to have a meal together."

"Um..."

Sakura Airi felt the boy's gaze, realized his inner enthusiasm, and nodded her head slightly.

When choosing a place to have dinner, Hashima Hikaru took into consideration Sakura Airi's shy personality, so he did not choose a crowded cafeteria or a popular restaurant, but instead chose a noodle shop with less traffic.

While waiting for the noodles to be served, Hashima Hikaru took the initiative to chat with Sakura Airi in order to achieve his goal of getting closer to her.

"Sakura-san, since we're already friends, why don't we exchange contact information?"

"Well..."

"If I have any photography questions to ask you in the future, I can contact you directly via mobile phone. Wouldn't that be more convenient?" Seeing that the girl was a little hesitant, Mitsuru Hashima immediately offered words that could serve as a stepping stone. It depended on whether Sakura was willing to accept it.

"Yeah, sure."

Of course, Airi Sakura wanted to exchange contact information with Hikaru Hashima. Since they had become friends, the girl also wanted to experience the feeling of texting with friends.

"That's fine."

Hashima Hikaru nodded, and after exchanging contact information, the boy said gently, "I think this is an important first step."

"Friendship is born from mutual willingness to take the first step, support and understand each other, and then stories and new memories will continue to be created, so the first step is very important."

"Well, I think being able to become friends with Hashima-san is also the first step I've taken."

Sakura Airi adjusted the frame of her glasses, and a hint of warmth flowed in her blue eyes.

From the first time she discovered this young man who gave her a different feeling, she didn't expect that she could actually become friends with him and that they had the same interests and hobbies.
