"...Ranran?"
The girl blushed when she heard her name being called that way.
Mizuto only showed a soft expression and apologized, "I am sorry. I don't know your name, but your nickname is somehow hard to forget, so I can't help calling you that way."
"No-No, it's okay. I-I don't mind..."
"Do you want me to call you Ranran?"
"....." The girl.
Mizuto smiled, causing the girl to be stunned once again. "How about we introduce ourselves first? My name is Mizuto Irido from Class 1-1."
"Ah, my name is Asahain..." Her expression showed hesitation before she said quietly, "Ran from Class 1-2!" When she said her first name, her voice was so low, but when she told her class, her voice was so loud, as if she tried to hide her first name.
Yet, it was impossible for Mizuto to miss all of that.
'So her name is Asuhain Ran?'
While Mizuto appeared calm, he understood why Ran seemed so reluctant to introduce her name.
At first, there was nothing wrong with her name, especially for those unfamiliar with the Japanese language.
However, when one said her full name, the connection between her family name and first, which was "In" and "Ran," created the word "Inran," and the meaning of "Inran" was "lascivious."
When he thought of this, he could imagine that this girl had been teased for so long, especially in her childhood.
Ran also knew that Mizuto must have realized why she didn't want to introduce her full name, and at this moment, she lowered her head, feeling helpless as to why her parents named her this way. At that moment, she could imagine that he would tease her like other boys in the past, but well... if it was him, she didn't mind since he had helped her in the past.
'But I don't think he remembers...'
Unlike him, who forgot about her, Ran still remembered how he had kicked the person who wanted to hit her off. She still remembered him even now. However, she didn't force a relationship between the two since she felt like... the interaction between the two was hardly there. Naturally, it didn't mean that she had given up, as she tried to gain his attention by doing her best on the placement exam.
Unfortunately, she not only failed to get second and third place, but her final result was fourth place.
While there was nothing she could do, she had to say she was disappointed since she had worked so hard.
At that time, she decided to give up and accepted the invitation of the girl, who was also the vice president of this school, to the student council since she hoped that by being busy, she could forget about him.
Yet, what she didn't expect was that she would meet him on the student council.
However, as expected, unlike her, who remembered everything, Mizuto didn't remember anything.
Still, when she thought about the double blow where Mizuto forgot about her and called her "Inran (Lewd)," she was extremely depressed.
"Asuhain-san, can I call you that?"
Hearing her name was called, Ran looked at him in a daze.
"Is there something wrong?" Mizuto wondered whether he should call her "Ranran."
"No, no. It's okay. You can call me that." At that moment, her impression of him changed, and as expected, he was different from any other boy who was childish and loved to make fun of her name.
Calm and mature.
Ran can see those features in him.
"Now, you mention it; you came because we missed something in the student council, right?"
"Ah, yes, this is what you have forgotten. Please sign this. This is also the list of what kind of items you need for your club. If you need more requests, you can come to the student council, Irido-san...."
Ran meticulously and softly explained everything that Mizuto needed to take care of.
"Thank you, Asuhain-san."
Mizuto had to say that this girl worked seriously, and she even came to him in this clubroom, which was quite far from the main building.
His clubroom was in the second building, on the highest floor, and right on the corner.
Yes, it was far, but there was no doubt that it was a perfect place for him and his women to have sex.
Yet, even if he had such a purpose in creating this club, no one seemed to doubt his purpose, and they all seemed to think that he was really interested in history.
Still, even though this place was right around the corner, it was quite near the music room where the concert band club usually held their activity.
While it might seem dangerous, as there might be some people who would visit this place, Mizuto didn't have to worry since he was going to make sure to protect his privacy, and the plot where there was an evil janitor definitely wouldn't happen to him.
However, he knew that he might as well buy this school so that he could control the teachers and also his schedule, considering he might go out to a different city or foreign country for his business in the future.
"No, no. It's okay, Irido-san. This is my job, after all."
Nevertheless, when he looked at Ran, he felt like he had seen her and recalled her name somewhere. "Now that you mention it, you seem to be quite familiar..."
"Do-Do you remember me?"
No, he didn't remember, but when he saw Ran's reaction, he knew that they must have met somewhere and he must have done something that made her remember him, but then again, there were so many women that he had met along the way and many of them wanted to get close to him. It was impossible for him to remember all of them, right?
After all, in Kyoto, there were 1.4 or so millions of people. If half of them were women, the number would still be outrageous. Moreover, there were also many tourists or students from outside of the city, so how could he remember that?
However, when he saw her eyes that shone brightly full of hope, he couldn't bear to disappoint her.
"It was quite vague, but I know that I met you."
"...I-I have never said this, but thank you for saving me at that time."
When everyone ignored her and let her be hit on by men, Mizuto was the only one who helped her.
"You don't need to thank me like that. I just did what others would do."
Frankly, Mizuto didn't remember, but it didn't mean that he couldn't act like he remembered her.
"Others wouldn't help me like you," Ran said persistently.
Still, when Mizuto saw this expression, he remembered her. 'Oh, right, she was that girl.' When he got his motorcycle for the first time, he remembered that he had saved a girl before. The feature that he remembered the most about her was the ample breasts on her petite body.
Ran was even shorter than Akatsuki, yet her breasts were unbelievable.
When Mizuto remembered, he also sighed in relief since he didn't need to lie anymore. Moreover, he also remembered her again somewhere, "But then again, if I am not wrong, you should be in fourth place on the previous placement exam, right?"
"Ah!" Ran was surprised and asked hesitantly. "...do you remember that?"
"Of course." Mizuto didn't really remember that well, but it couldn't stop him from gaining a good impression of this girl. After all, she was a student council member, and having a good relationship with her would help him in many ways.
"Wh-Why did you cry?"
Yet, Mizuto was startled when Ran suddenly cried.
"No-Nothing..." Ran wiped her eyes hurriedly and said, "I-I thought that you wouldn't even notice me..." Mizuto's throne, as the first among the first graders, was as firm as his erection. Meanwhile, her status in the fourth position was relatively shaky. Moreover, whether it was Yume or Reina, they were studying under the effect of the "Study Group" skill of his "Student" job.
Yet, she remembered him!
Mizuto wasn't sure why this girl reacted so strongly like that. "Here. Wipe your tears. If someone sees you like this, they will think that I am bullying you."
"If someone thinks that, I will tell them that they are wrong!"
Mizuto was speechless by how strait-laced and prim this girl was. "Even so, it isn't good if someone sees you crying like this."
"Th-Thanks..." Ran accepted his handkerchief to wipe her tears. "I-I will return it when I have washed them up."
"You don't need to, though."
"No, let me do it!"
"...if you say so." Mizuto didn't bother to say anything anymore since he could feel Akatsuki, Reina, and Nami staring at him hard. After they had finished their conversation, Mizuto closed the door and returned to the three who had been waiting for him.
Ran also returned to the student council, but her hand was staring at the handkerchief before she pressed it onto her nose and inhaled it deeply.
"It-It smells really good~!"
Mizuto didn't know like any other girls who were close to him; this girl was also fucked up.
