Compared to Yukino who was standing at the top of the front, Iroha was more curious about Ryuji who was 'in charge' of the school.
On the one hand because of gossip, and on the other hand, because of her relationship with Mash.
She and Mash are very good friends. When they were together, the girl never left this senior. No matter how Iroha saw it, Mash was a nympho.
And whenever she asked about the relationship between the two, Mash would always say something like 'senior is senior'.
For a long time, Iroha had been curious about Hyakki Ryuji.
Ryuji didn't know that this junior had such high expectations for him, even if he did, he would probably just reply with an 'oh'.
Standing at the station were Ryuji's comrades Hayama Hayato, Tobe Kakeru, and Ebina Hina.
After spending most of the semester, Ryuji finally remembered their names.
"Let's get to know each other, so you don't feel embarrassed!" Iroha said correctly.
"No, that would be even more embarrassing!" Ryuji said lightly.
The most embarrassing thing is to pretend to be intimate with a group of strangers!
"Is Senpai on good terms?"
"...Good."
The so-called neutral words are actually another expression of negative evaluation, which are 'rules' that only adults understand.
Iroha understood words and expressions more strongly than Yukino, and she could see through the fact that some people were 'foreigners'.
"Sorry, I called you on vacation." Iroha said apologetically.
Ryuji shook his head: "Since you also know that we are in trouble, let's go back."
"Hah?" Iroha was taken aback, shouldn't the other party say 'it's okay' at a time like this, then spit out a lengthy excuse?
"Senpai!" Mash muttered.
Ryuji said heartbroken: "Mash really spoke to me in such a reproachful tone..."
"I didn't mean that…" Mash anxiously wanted to explain.
Mash might be serious, but Yukino knows Ryuji's lies.
"Mash, better not trust this trash too much." Yukino reminded coldly.
Ryuji shrugged and put his pretentiousness aside.
"Yukino, don't slander me."
Ryuji's helplessness was exchanged for Yukino's hum.
The naive Mash got a little angry when Ryuji was playing around.
"Senpai, please reflect on yourself! Don't tease me all the time!"
"Yes~"
The weak answer was enough to show that Ryuji had no regrets at all.
Iroha saw the scene making out.
"Yahallo, Iroha-chan!"
This was Yuigahama's exclusive greeting method, which Haruno seemed to have learned.
Before Iroha could answer, Yuigahama called out, "Ryu-kun and Yukino are here too?!"
Ryuji waved his hand at Yuigahama: "Yo, Yui."
Yukino nodded lightly: "Yuigahama-san."
Yuigahama muttered: "No wonder Ryu-kun is so kind, you came yourself."
Ryuji was still the Ryuji she knew, a jealous boy boyfriend, no doubt.
"What did you say Yui?"
Miura beside Yuigahama heard her mutter.
"No, it's nothing, hehe." Yuigahama showed a smile.
"In this way, everyone has gathered." Iroha clapped and brought everyone together.
According to the original plan, after everyone got together, go to the panda's house first, then make a plan.
"Let's go." Hayato said with a smile.
Even though the initiator of the event was Iroha, the backbone of this group of people was Hayama, who was in absolute position.
The team split into two waves, one side led by Hayato, Miura and Iroha, Tobe interrupted but he was confused as no one was paying attention.
But luckily, there was also Ebina talking to him, so the atmosphere wasn't too embarrassing.
The other half was quieter, with Yuigahama standing between Ryuji and Yukino, and Mash standing beside Ryuji.
Most of the time, Yuigahama spoke, and Yukino occasionally responded.
Panda's house is not far from the station, and everyone is walking in ten minutes.
Standing at the entrance of the Panda Pavilion, Ryuji said to the others: "I think it would be better to shop separately."
It was meaningless to stick around with Hayama and the others, and Tobe's cold jokes were surprisingly effective, making the atmosphere awkward every time.
"What do you mean, is it necessary to gather together for separate shopping?" Miura said in a bad tone.
Ryuji glanced at Yukino.
Yukino noticed Ryuji's gaze, and honestly wanted to ignore him.
Ryuji wasn't wrong on one thing.
Yukino really isn't generous enough to remain indifferent when her boyfriend is being bullied by another girl.
