When soone likes another person, their body language and subconscious actions will betray that affection. The sa goes for a feeling of dislike. Even though the people involved may not notice, those who pay close attention can still catch so clues.
During the doubles training match, Oga Masato's teammate often had his brilliance overshadowed. Yet, despite this, Shirakawa Sawahei didn't feel any dissatisfaction from his actions.
In other words, there was no rift between Oga Masato and his partner.
The real problem was a girl sitting in the audience. She was wearing a red tracksuit with her hair in a ponytail, cheering for the mbers of the tennis club among a group of girls.
However, when Oga Masato made a mistake, her encouragent was noticeably less enthusiastic than the others, as if she was a beat slow.
And when Oga Masato played a good shot, her cheers seed lacking, just echoing those around her.
Thanks to the physical enhancent from his level 4 combat skills, Shirakawa Sawahei could clearly see the unusual emotion in the girl's eyes as she looked at Oga Masato.
If she's not sick, then she's definitely a fake fan, Shirakawa Sawahei concluded to himself.
He thought for a mont and decided to leave the soda at the spot Hayakawa Kashi and others had taken, and then left to lay in wait.
Hayakawa Kashi glanced at his departing figure, not bothered by his strange behavior.
Shirakawa Sawahei patiently waited, and it seed that luck was on his side. Before long, the girl stood up, looking like she was heading to the restroom.
Shirakawa Sawahei appeared at the right mont, blocking her path.
The ponytail girl was clearly startled by the sudden appearance of a stranger, cautiously asking, "...Who are you?"
"...My na is Shirakawa Sawahei."
"If you rember, you should have seen at the opening ceremony."
The ponytail girl remained alert, "Shirakawa... Appearing suddenly like this, do you need sothing?"
Shirakawa Sawahei pondered for a mont and then said, "I want to ask you sothing... How should I address you?"
"Just call Nagashima... What do you want, Shirakawa?" Nagashima Asami replied.
"I want to ask you about Oga Masato."
Nagashima Asami's expression changed slightly, "Are you Oga's friend too, Shirakawa? Asking about this seems a bit inappropriate..."
"Though I know Oga, it's just an acquaintance..."
Shirakawa Sawahei paused for a mont and then admitted, "To be precise, Oga Masato and I have a bit of a grudge."
He was gambling, betting that this girl did indeed have issues with Oga Masato. Otherwise, the two of them would keep probing each other from the start, going nowhere and unable to progress further.
If this girl truly had no conflict with Oga Masato, then he bet wrong, and might even scare her away. But if he bet right, he'd gain valuable ti and opportunity.
Nagashima Asami hesitated before changing the subject, "Is there a conflict between you and Oga, Shirakawa? That's quite unfortunate... Can't you get along?"
"If we could get along, I wouldn't be seeking you out," Shirakawa Sawahei looked her in the eye and said.
"That's really a pity... Oga has such a good personality..."
Nagashima Asami forced a smile, seemingly unwilling to continue the topic, "Ah, I have sothing to do, I'll be leaving first. See you later, Shirakawa..."
Shirakawa Sawahei watched the hurriedly escaping figure, unconsciously furrowing his brow.
Was it a failure?
No, that's not right, there's definitely sothing wrong with this girl. She's clearly avoiding the topic, like she's afraid of sothing.
For an outsider like him, he couldn't use coercion to force her to disclose secrets, it was giving him a headache.
"Looks like Shirakawa was rejected by soone he didn't care about," Hayakawa Kashi strolled over, sipping li-flavored soda, watching with interest.
At that mont, having finished a round of play, she hung a pure white towel around her neck, her posture as elegant as so exotic cat. The occasional mysterious and cold look in her eyes was very much like a cat, proud and dismissive.
At tis, she resembled a proud little peacock, and at others, a noble and aloof cat, ever-changing and truly unfathomable.
Without waiting for Shirakawa Sawahei's response, she continued, "Shirakawa, when seeking soone's help, it's not about what you said, but what you did."
Shirakawa Sawahei hesitated, still seeking help, "Do you know her, Hayakawa?"
"Nagashima Asami, ah~ I have so impression," she said softly.
"The person you ntioned knowing in the tennis club earlier, is it Nagashima?"
"Yes, but also no."
Shirakawa Sawahei asked curiously, "What do you an by that?"
"I don't need to know each of them; as long as they know , it's enough," Hayakawa Kashi's delicate little face was full of a taken-for-granted expression.
"..."
Such words could only resonate from Miss Kaori, sitting atop the food chain.
"Do you know what to do?" Shirakawa Sawahei asked in return.
Hayakawa Kashi glanced at him, softly saying, "Not interested in knowing."
Well, it seed asking this vengeful study master for help wasn't a good choice.
"Not knowing is just not knowing, why say you don't want to know? If it weren't for your talent and aptitude, I wouldn't bother associating with you!"
The sentint felt like: "I also want to refuse, but he paid too much.jpg"
I also don't want this study master, but her talent is just too high.
Oga Masato had been tense ever since Hayakawa Kashi entered the gym. Ordinarily indifferent about his daily training, he suddenly beca serious.
Who wouldn't like Hayakawa Kashi? During student days, every boy believed he would be the most outstanding one in front of the school beauty.
Oga Masato was no exception.
Moreover, he already considered himself the most outstanding.
After concentrating and making several brilliant plays, he couldn't help but glance towards Hayakawa Kashi to see if she was watching him.
To his surprise, it was that kid Shirakawa Sawahei talking to Hayakawa Kashi.
Damn it!
A trace of gloom flashed over Oga Masato's sunny and handso face. Ruining things with Tachibana Tomoku was one thing; she was just soone to toy with.
That timid and quiet girl seed like soone without much opinion. She didn't seem qualified to match him.
If she weren't so cute, Oga Masato probably wouldn't have even glanced at her seriously.
But Hayakawa Kashi was different. At school, his influence compared to her was insignificant.
But why was she talking to Shirakawa Sawahei?
And then, after finishing a match, she even walked over to his side?
Weren't they supposed to be on bad terms? That Shirakawa Sawahei even provoked Hayakawa Kashi at the opening ceremony. Since when did they start cozying up to each other!
Isn't there any law? Isn't this illegal?jpg
Oga Masato was suddenly confused by this world.
