Toru Watanabe, who thought that the dispute had left him, didn't expect that just after his lunch break, he heard a message that could be turned around.

To be precise, it should be the reason why he was buried.

The first period of the afternoon was an English class, and Koizumi Kina used her class as a class guide to talk about the midterm exam.

When she walked into the class, she saw that everyone was all downcast, and smiled like friends and said, "Everyone is still regretting not getting the first place?" ”

"Yes—" Kunii replied in a long tone.

Watanabe glanced at this guy, there are a total of 160 people in the first grade, what kind of heart do you hurt after 100?

"Although my dream didn't come true, I still want to praise everyone, everyone, who has made great progress compared to the monthly exam, especially Watanabe."

Facing Koizumi Qingna's relieved eyes, Toru Watanabe did not have the slightest joy of being praised.

"Teacher, although I have improved by one place, in terms of numbers, I am still third, and I have not improved in essence."

"How so?" Koizumi Kina laughed: "Watanabe, you took the liberal arts exam, and your score was 886 points. Students who were admitted to the University of Tokyo last year had the highest score of 883 points in the liberal arts in the unified examination, although the paper was relatively simple, but you were only a freshman in high school, and you were already very, very good. ”

Toru Watanabe thought for a moment and asked, "Teacher, Kiyono-san and Mihime, are they liberal arts or science?" ”

"That's why the teacher wants to praise you, they are in science. Among the students who were admitted to Tokyo University last year, the highest score in the science subject of the unified examination was 893 points, and Kiyono and Kujo only scored 888 points, in a sense, Watanabe, you are better than them! ”

Toru Watanabe was stunned.

Koizumi looked at his expression and explained, "The reason why there is no separate ranking, and the students who choose liberal arts are ranked together with science is because after all, it is the first year, and the liberal arts and sciences have not yet been finalized, and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and Culture will not allow it." ”

What, it turns out that he is the first, and God rewards hard work.

Toru Watanabe was about to cry with joy.

He raised his hand: "Teacher, I ask for a rescheduling of an exam, I will take the science, or they will take the liberal arts." ”

"You want to take the first? Is it going to make Kiyono-san do something? Koizumi Qingna looked at Toru Watanabe with dissatisfaction: "Watanabe, you are already with Kujo-san, so you have to be single-minded." ”

Speaking of this, the class burst into laughter.

People of this age always like to make fun of the relationship between men and women.

"Teacher," Toru Watanabe said helplessly, "The reorganized exam is not a midterm exam, so there won't be a condition where whoever is the first can let the other two do whatever they want, I just want to prove my strength." ”

That's right, but with the narcissism of the other two, all you need is a simple agitation method, right?

This kind of thing can be negotiated in private, there is no need to let others know, this is a game that belongs to the three of them.

"That's right." Koizumi Kina thought for a moment, "If you can get the consent of the other two, the teacher will find a way to persuade the principal to arrange the test papers and examination venue for you." ”

"Great! I like Mr. Koizumi the most! ”

"Oh-"

"Watanabe, you guy! Obviously, there are already nine classmates, and they are still robbing Mr. Koizumi with us! ”

"Unforgivable!"

Koizumi Qingna's goose egg face was slightly red, and she glared at Toru Watanabe with disgust, she clapped her hands and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"In addition to Watanabe's excellent results this time, many students have made progress, such as ......"

——————

Originally, after the midterm exams were over and club activities were back to normal, Toru Watanabe only needed to go to the Human Observation Department on Friday, but today he had to go.

He walked on the corridor to the club building, and felt that his steps were much lighter, and he was more confident.

The Human Observation Department Activity Room is located alone on the innermost part of the fifth floor of the Club Building.

It was originally a storage room with clutter piled up on the walls. In the remaining space, an old beech table was placed.

Of course, this was before, when Kujou Miki stepped into this activity room, it was arranged into a small but extravagant living room, except for beech wood tables and steel tube chairs.

Toru Watanabe's favorite part of this activity room is that at dusk, the entire classroom is dyed honey-colored by the setting sun.

A breeze blew in through the open window, snapping through Rin Kiyono's book on the beech desk, or his Spanish dictionary.

Now, this activity classroom will soon become his personal domain for his research on Fashion and Design.

In addition, he has decided that if he gets the first place in the retake, he will waste 10,000 points to redeem.

Toru Watanabe, who has always been very sensible, didn't understand why he did this.

But men, slaves of desire, or power, or beauty, or money.

Toru Watanabe doesn't like power, and he just thinks that money is enough, and he doesn't really crave beautiful women.

He's just a pure photography enthusiast.

Forgive him for this little bit of personal love.

"Photography is about light, as long as the light is good, everything looks good, and the light in the activity classroom is very good! Well! ”

Pulling open the sliding door of the activity classroom, the atmosphere inside looks peaceful on the surface, and Miki Kujou and Rin Kiyono are reading and eating as usual.

But without thinking about it, they must have already reached some kind of compromise after some kind of argument.

"Uh-huh." Toru Watanabe cleared his throat, "Good afternoon, I have something I want to tell you." ”

"What's the matter?" Rin Kiyono responded, while continuing to look at the hardcover book in his hand.

Toru Watanabe told the liberal arts and sciences again: "...... So, I thought, for the sake of fairness, we'd better do it all over again......"

"Watanabe-san," Rin Kiyono still looked at the book in his hand, "don't give yourself reasons, people can only move forward if they admit defeat." ”

Miki Kujou added disdainfully: "When you are not strong enough, you must learn to obediently submit to power." ”

So, Toru Watanabe, who fantasized about all the way and tried his best to fight against fate...... The will is destroyed before it can be communicated, and there is nowhere to go for ambitions, and long-cherished wishes drift in the void.

Although he didn't really want to do anything too much to the other two.

"I'll go back first today." With this sentence said in a depressed manner, Toru Watanabe prepared to leave this nasty activity classroom.

Let them go this time, and next time you will be the first!

"That's right." Rin Kiyono spoke, "Please put this on the bulletin board of the club building." ”

Toru Watanabe took the flyer, which read:

"To help you achieve love, those who need it should go to the Human Observation Department on the fifth floor."

"We'll keep it a secret for you, and trust us in our abilities."

"BY: Human Observation Department"

"Are you really going to do that?"

"Unlike Watanabe-san, who is reluctant to admit defeat, I know very well that I am a little deficient in love."

"Slightly lacking...... Kiyono-san, have you ever been in a relationship? I don't understand it at all, do you? The other party spoke politely, and Toru Watanabe was not angry.

"Watanabe-san and Kujo-san have only been dating for a few days, and I don't think you have enough experience to say this to me."

That's what the words say.

"Boring." At this time, Kujou Miki stood up, "I won't be here again for the next while, and you won't be allowed to come Watanabe." ”

Rin Kiyono also stood up, her back against the open window, her hands on her chest: "According to the agreement, I am the first and have the right to let you do anything." ”

Miki Kujou sneered, "I'm also number one. ”

"You know exactly where your first came to be."

"Of course I'm clear, but I'm still number one."

"That," Toru Watanabe began, "I'm number one in a sense, right?" ”

The two of them glanced at him at the same time, then withdrew their gaze.

Toru Watanabe was not happy: "I have the ability to take the test again!" Forget about Meiji, Kiyono-san, do you dare to say that you must be able to pass me? ”

Kujou Miki looked at Rin Kiyono with a smile.

Rin Kiyono stroked her long hair: "I finally know why the two of you are together, obviously you have already lost, but you still don't want to admit the reality." ”

"Please answer me directly, if you can pass the test, you still can't pass the test." Toru Watanabe looked her straight in the eye.

Rin Kiyono looked away slightly: "Why should I answer you?" The facts are already clear, and "Rin Kiyono" is in first place on the bulletin board. ”

"Didn't you say that admitting your own shortcomings is also what makes you better than me?" Toru Watanabe reminded maliciously.

"I'm 888 points, you're 886 points, and this is still when I teach you the 'battle of the four northern islands'."

Speaking of this, Toru Watanabe felt like he had been caught cheating, and he instantly lost his confidence: "When I took the final exam, you waited for me, by the way, are you going to take the liberal arts or science exam?" I'm going to take the same test as you do! ”

The two beautiful girls fell silent at the same time.

Toru Watanabe smiled: "You guys panicked, didn't you?" I'm afraid I'll surpass you!

He also said, "That level of knowledge, the teacher didn't know how to talk about it before, and the teacher didn't know it after he finished speaking."

"That level of knowledge, which is not a human being that naturally comes with age, can be eliminated." ”

The two beautiful girls were pale.

Toru Watanabe has a good memory and retells what the two have said in full.

Rin Kiyono exhaled lightly: "It seems that I need to be serious and let some people clearly know the gap between themselves and me." ”

Kujou Mihime stared at Toru Watanabe with a terrifying expression, and said with a sneer, "Tonight, I'm going to punish you well." ”

“…… I—I'm kidding. ”

"Follow me!" Kujou Miki ordered without looking back.

"Mei Ji, you see, I still have to participate in club activities." Toru Watanabe looked at Rin Kiyono pleadingly, hoping that she would continue to disagree with Mihime Kujou.

Rin Kiyono chuckled, "Watanabe-san, don't forget to put the flyer on the bulletin board when you leave." ”
