Surrounded like the center of the universe, Hikari, though, was fairly satisfied with the outcome, but it can only be said that happiness also has the troubles of happiness.
So many beautiful girls gathered together, and they would start quarreling at the drop of a hat.
Ruri: "Hikari-kun's posture when playing baseball just now was so handsome. Ruri was almost unable to hold it in while watching, and wanted Hikari-kun to use the baseball bat to hit Ruri hard right away, okay!"
Reina: "Reina also wants to go to Hikari-kun's house and have a party right now!"
Yuina: "Yuina wants to continue playing Dragon Quest(Seggs) with Hikari-kun today! And also the knight(Doggy) game!"
"You guys have also played the knight game with Hikari-kun?", Natsuha widened her eyes at the three gyarus: Reina and the others.
"Of course!", The three gyarus stood with hands on hips, chests out and heads held high.
Seeing the righteous expressions of the three gyarus, Natsuha clenched her silver teeth, "No way, today I, Natsuha, will be the first horse and also the first female knight."
Ruri said, "How can you be so selfish? Ruri is the first female knight! Hikari-kun, you say so, right? Ruri even fed you top-quality seafood!"
Hearing the girls' words, Hikari had a helpless look on his face.
But before Hikari could speak, Natsuha immediately rebutted, "Hikari-kun played the horse-riding game with me first. You have to go by order. Don't you understand?"
Reina: "What order! Don't you know what it means for the latecomer to surpass the former? Besides, we agreed that everyone would party together. Don't think about monopolizing him."
Yuina: "Yeah, don't think about monopolizing."
Watching them arguing again, Akane tried to smooth things over, "Don't fight, don't fight. Let's all be female knights together and ride Hikari-kun hard. I believe Hikari-kun can handle it!"
"Sounds reasonable…"
"Then let's play the knight game together with Hikari-kun!"
"Ride Hikari-kun hard until he collapses!"
In the end, the five beautiful girls barely reached a consensus.
And hearing the words of these gyarus, Hikari couldn't help but show a wry smile.
'Damn, these beautiful girls can really jump all over the place.'
Looking at the five energetic and eager beautiful girls, Hikari began to doubt whether today's grand party was right or wrong.
'Could it be that this was all their conspiracy?'
The condition they raised about defeating Takanashi Kou was just a cover.
Their true purpose was to squeeze dry this innocent boy?
Hikari didn't believe it before, but now looking at the faint three hearts appearing in the beautiful eyes of Natsuha and the three gyarus, he started to doubt.
Seeing Natsuha and the three gyarus who had just left everyone's sight quickly come close to him, rubbing up and down and side to side, Hikari knew that today's battle of hunger was probably inevitable.
"Hmm… there's a chance," Hikari nodded.
Surrounded by five girls, under everyone's envious gaze, he gradually disappeared from the baseball field.
———
Not long after Hikari and the five beautiful girls left.
A broadcast suddenly echoed throughout the school.
Inside the baseball field, that broadcast voice was also clearly audible.
"Second Year Class 2 student Tachibana Yui, please go immediately to the Student Guidance Office…"
———
"Second Year Class 2 student Tachibana Yui, please go immediately to the Student Guidance Office!"
"Second Year Class 2 student Tachibana Yui, please go immediately to the Student Guidance Office!"
"Second Year Class 2 student Tachibana Yui…"
The sudden broadcast echoed three or four times throughout the school.
At this time, Tachibana Yui, who was at the baseball club, naturally also heard it.
She was originally thinking whether to comfort her childhood friend Takanashi Kou a bit more, but had to give up that thought and walked quickly toward the office building.
———
Standing outside the Student Guidance Office, Tachibana Yui lightly clenched her pink fists, her steps somewhat hesitant.
'Teacher Kuwahara in charge of student guidance doesn't have a good reputation at school…'
'I heard not only is his personality bad, his lectures harsh and difficult, but he's also very troublesome. And the way he looks at girls, it's like sexual harassment…'
'Really don't want to deal with someone like that…'
Tachibana Yui gently pressed her slender hand against her tall and full chest, her heartbeat a little fast due to nervousness.
But since she had already been called, there was probably no escaping whatever it was. After hesitating for a few minutes at the door, Tachibana Yui still gathered her courage and knocked gently, voice a little tense.
"Ex… excuse me, is anyone there?"
"Come in," A slightly hoarse male voice came from inside the Guidance Office.
Tachibana Yui immediately pushed the door open and entered.
What came into her view was a fat middle-aged man with a big belly and glasses.
About forty to fifty years old, with hair already thinning.
This fat man with glasses was Teacher Kuwahara in charge of student guidance, currently sitting on the sofa.
As soon as Tachibana Yui entered, she saw Teacher Kuwahara staring at her.
Although Kuwahara's appearance was a bit unbearable, the smile on his face was quite enthusiastic.
But even though he was smiling, Tachibana Yui only felt a cold chill under his gaze, as if something ominous was watching her.
"T… teacher, hello…", Tachibana Yui greeted timidly.
"Hello, student Tachibana Yui, sorry to suddenly call you here," Teacher Kuwahara smiled and said to Tachibana Yui.
"N… no problem," Tachibana Yui politely shook her head.
Teacher Kuwahara comfortably leaned back on the sofa and pointed at the sofa opposite him, smiling, "Have a seat first, student Tachibana Yui. Sit down and we'll talk slowly."
Hearing the teacher say this, Tachibana Yui had no choice but to sit on the sofa opposite Kuwahara.
Due to the poor reputation of Kuwahara on campus and a vague sense of unease in her heart.
Tachibana Yui kept a vigilant eye on Kuwahara opposite her. While sitting down, she kept her legs together and lightly pressed her skirt to avoid any exposure that the other might see.
But what surprised Tachibana Yui was that Kuwahara's gaze didn't look at those sensitive areas, but rather politely looked elsewhere.
Seeing this, Tachibana Yui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, her heart relaxing a little.
Seeing Tachibana Yui let out a breath, Kuwahara's mouth slightly curled up and he said, "No need to be nervous, student Tachibana Yui. I already feel quite guilty taking the time of our school's highly anticipated baseball team manager. Just relax."
Hearing Kuwahara's inexplicable flattery, Tachibana Yui said uncomfortably, "N… not at all, my time isn't that precious…"
Kuwahara ignored Tachibana Yui's words and continued speaking, "Manager Tachibana Yui, this year the principal and director are very optimistic about your baseball team. They all believe your team will definitely make it to Koshien this year and are very much looking forward to your performance."
"Th… this…", Hearing Kuwahara's praise, Tachibana Yui couldn't help but think of how Hikari just now had easily defeated the baseball team's ace Takanashi Kou.
Takanashi Kou was also her childhood friend.
At this moment, Tachibana Yui didn't know how to respond to Kuwahara, so she could only laugh awkwardly twice.
"Ha… haha…", As if not seeing Tachibana Yui's awkward expression, Kuwahara continued, "Speaking of which, student Tachibana Yui, I remember you and the baseball team's ace Takanashi Kou are childhood friends, right?"
"Tch! Tch! Tch! Working together with your childhood friend to fight your way to Koshien, that's so hot-blooded. It sounds just like the plot of those shonen manga."
Hearing Kuwahara getting further and further off track, Tachibana Yui couldn't help but raise her left hand to interrupt, "Uh… um, teacher, excuse me… you called me over, is there something you wanted…?"
Hearing Tachibana Yui's words, Kuwahara seemed reminded, suddenly snapped out of it, and first apologized, "Sorry, sorry. I'm old, and seeing a youthful female high school student like you reminded me of my youth. I couldn't stop talking and wasted your time."
"Calling you over isn't for anything urgent, I just wanted to show you this…"
As he spoke, Teacher Kuwahara smiled and handed a tablet to Tachibana Yui.
Tachibana Yui took it with some confusion, but found that a video was playing on the tablet.
She was initially baffled, but after seeing the video clearly, her face suddenly changed, and her previously rosy face turned deathly pale, "Th… this is…"
Tachibana Yui stared at the screen in the video, her shapely figure trembling slightly.
This scene fell into Kuwahara's eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled into an evil smile.
The video being played contained only two people: Tachibana Yui and Takanashi Kou.
The background was the baseball club's storage room.
Tachibana Yui immediately recognized this video as the one of her meeting with Takanashi Kou in the storage room yesterday.
Although the two actually didn't do anything, the subtle intimate and ambiguous atmosphere in the video was still somewhat apparent.
And in the video, Takanashi Kou confessed to Tachibana Yui multiple times.
Even though Tachibana Yui clearly rejected him, if this was released, it would definitely cause a stir.
Because the baseball team strictly forbids romantic relationships.
Let alone that they are the ace and the manager of the team.
This was actually the first time Tachibana Yui had agreed to meet Takanashi Kou secretly, and the result was, they hadn't even started anything before being secretly recorded.
Tachibana Yui was both shocked and relieved.
Relieved that she had always had reservations and didn't get close to Takanashi Kou, not even holding hands.
Shocked because, with the baseball team's strict enforcement of the no-dating rule, just the footage of Takanashi's confession might be enough to get both of them kicked off the team.
Seeing Tachibana Yui's complicated expression, Teacher Kuwahara pushed up his glasses, and a wicked gleam shone from the lenses, "Heh heh, the baseball team's ace Takanashi Kou and cute manager Tachibana Yui actually violated club rules and secretly met in the storage room."
"If this gets out to other team members or the public, you'll both be expelled from the baseball team and lose your chance to enter the dream baseball tournament, right?"
As Kuwahara spoke, his face revealed a lecherous smile, "I heard all of your conversation yesterday. Entering Koshien was your shared dream since childhood, wasn't it?"
"What a pity. If this video is made public, you definitely won't be able to stay on the team. Your dream will be shattered, student Tachibana Yui."
Hearing Teacher Kuwahara's calm and smirking tone, Tachibana Yui bit her silver teeth, her face pale as paper, her hand holding the tablet trembling uncontrollably.
"Th… th… this…"
Tachibana Yui's mind was blank, unable to imagine the reality of her and her childhood friend's dream collapsing over such a small incident.
"Don't be so nervous, student Tachibana Yui. Actually, there is a solution to this…"
Just as Tachibana Yui was in despair, Teacher Kuwahara suddenly stood up from the sofa, looking down at her, "Right now, only I know about this. In other words, as long as I stay silent…"
"Then Kou-kun and I can stay in the baseball team?", Tachibana Yui's eyes immediately lit up.
"Yes."
Kuwahara slightly nodded. As he nodded, his beady, lecherous eyes locked onto Tachibana Yui's curvy and delicate body.
The lenses on his face reflected a perverted glow in the sunlight, and his smile became more and more lewd.
"Th… then I'll leave it to you, teacher…", Tachibana Yui was just about to ask Kuwahara for help.
But Kuwahara spoke first, "I can help you hide this matter, but, I have one condition."
