Chapter 152: Chapter 152: The Grateful Slacker Girl
Just like last time, the little Arrogant Scorpio babbled something in front of Shirakawa Sawahei and the piano master, eventually making him beam with joy and let go of his hand.
Then, the master seemed to regain his composure and politely shook hands with Shirakawa Sawahei, muttering a string of incomprehensible words.
Shirakawa Sawahei: "..."
I’ll just teach myself Italian when I get back!
After Master Slatter left happily, Shirakawa Sawahei finally had the chance to ask Hayakawa Kashi, "What’s going on, are we going for artillery or noodles?"
Hayakawa Kashi clearly didn’t get Shirakawa Sawahei’s Italian joke, looked at him strangely, and said, "In any case, it’s no longer your business for now."
"For now?"
"Yeah, I don’t know what accidents might happen in the future." Hayakawa Kashi responded softly, "As long as you’re genuinely not interested in piano, then it’s out of your concern."
"Why do I feel like you’re scheming against someone again..." Shirakawa Sawahei’s face was a picture of complexity.
"Oh? Does Shirakawa want to take a blow for that master?"
"I’d rather not." Shirakawa Sawahei decisively turned down the offer.
Save yourself rather than others; being plotted by Miss Kaori should be a blessing from past lives.
Thinking of it, makes me suddenly wish I was a villain in my past life?
"What’s next? He left so easily; there must be a reason, right?"
"Yep, so I need to find a student for him."
"...Do you plan to step up yourself?"
"Why should I?" Miss Kaori pursed her lips, "I told you, I don’t like piano."
"..."
Shirakawa Sawahei seemed to realize who Miss Kaori had thrown under the bus.
If it’s not Asano Nazuki, that little girl, he really can’t think of anyone else with the talent to catch Master Slatter’s eye.
Another level 5 piano genius? Come on, they’re not cabbages. No way Hayakawa Kashi could summon a little sister from nowhere? Or clone herself?
If there’s a second sibling, that could be possible.
While Shirakawa Sawahei was still guessing if Asano Nazuki was the unlucky one, Hayakawa Kashi had already walked a distance. She turned back slowly, with a subtle hint of a smile, "Walking so slow, tired already? Thank you for your hard work today, Shirakawa?"
"If you truly think I’m hardworking, maybe your tone could be a bit gentler."
"Oh, I truly apologize then, for showing such an ungentle side of mine." Miss Kaori was indifferent, seemingly not caring about her image in Shirakawa Sawahei’s eyes. She spoke slowly, "No matter what, Shirakawa did help me out a bit."
"Just a bit?" Shirakawa Sawahei was disgruntled. He had been clinging to that master’s leg for so long, getting goosebumps all over, fearing the master might awaken some special powers.
With all my effort, don’t I deserve a genuine compliment from the Little Arrogant Study Girl?
"Alright, let’s say a lot then."
"...Feels like bargaining, my goodwill for helping others evaporated instantly."
"You set the emotional tone, Shirakawa, so are you blaming me?"
Shirakawa Sawahei thought about it, "Never mind, let’s just blame Asano then."
Hayakawa Kashi glanced at him indifferently.
"Okay, as Shirakawa decides." Certain lenient elder sister showed no care or love towards her sibling.
"..."
No matter what, Shirakawa Sawahei confirmed one fact.
Hayakawa Kashi definitely isn’t a siscon! And Asano Nazuki definitely isn’t a brocon!
Putting it on record and waiting to be proven wrong!
...
While Shirakawa Sawahei was leisurely strolling with the Little Arrogant Study Girl, on the other side, the second birthday celebration for the idling girl Ise Yu was successfully held by the Light Music Club’s members.
President Aoki Motoka and a bunch of girls were having a blast in a KTV room; it was all girls, so there was no issue with any boundaries, and they were being wildly mischievous.
"Orikin, who do you think is the most handsome and charming in school?"
"That’s obviously Hayakawa!" The little fan girl answered decisively.
"No~ you must choose a guy."
"But I don’t know many guys, if I have to pick, it would only be Shirakawa, which is very unfair."
"It’s not unfair, come on, where do you think Shirakawa is the best-looking?"
"Emmm... Hands?"
"Oh wow? I thought Orikin and Shirakawa were so close that you’d have seen his abs or chest muscles."
"No way!" Cute little Ise Yu argued loudly, "Am I that kind of person? I haven’t secretly observed Shirakawa for drawing material, definitely not!"
"What material? Orikin, what are you talking about~ But according to the rules, you got emotional, there’s a penalty!"
"Oh c’mon..."
Ise Yu had no choice but to drink a non-alcoholic beverage.
"Next question..."
"Hey, wait~ why are all your questions about Shirakawa, why don’t you answer questions about him?"
"Well..." Two Kaori Guard Team members exchanged glances, "Naturally, it’s because you’re the one most familiar with Shirakawa, if you ask us, we can’t bring it back to him."
Aoki Motoka was also keen on the gossip about Shirakawa Sawahei and Ise Yu, even though she didn’t have a chance to join the Kaori Guard Team; however, she seemed to unwittingly become a tool for the Guard Team’s gossiping.
"Koorikin~, you’re so close with Shirakawa, you can’t lie... Tell us what you know about Shirakawa!"
"Huh? President, why are you so concerned about Shirakawa?"
"Of course, to potentially write a memoir and profit in the future!" Aoki Motoka stated righteously, "Since you’re not in the piano circle, you wouldn’t understand."
"No no no, why are you asking me, my relationship with Shirakawa is just ordinary friends..."
"Oh? Just ordinary friends?"
"Who walks you home every night?"
"Well... Shirakawa..."
"Who goes to school with you every morning and rings your doorbell to wake you up?"
"Well... still Shirakawa."
"Who often accompanies you for late-night snacks and sometimes strolls down the food street on weekends? And treats you to Oden after part-time jobs..."
"Well... Shirakawa... Wait, how does President even know this!"
"Hehe, Orikin, you said it yourself."
"What? I have no memory of this! Did you guys trick me into talking?" The idling girl frantically covered her mouth, looking in horror at her sisters in front of her.
"Don’t wrongly accuse people. It was you who said it during a chat, I didn’t do anything."
Ise Yu Yuzhijin tearfully acknowledged, "Enough already, alright, I admit, Shirakawa is a bit better than just an ordinary friend..."
"That won’t do, Orikin!" Aoki Motoka’s eyes gleamed, "You have to find a way to thank Shirakawa for taking care of you for so long!"
"Yes! Shirakawa is rarely this considerate to people..."
The idling girl pondered for a moment, "How about... I give him a raise for tutoring?"
"Material isn’t enough to repay kindness? In the end, a gratitude debt must be repaid with emotions... mmm... mmm..."
"President, let’s not continue, spreading incorrect values can result in a 404." A Light Music Club girl calmly covered her mouth.
Hearing this, Ise Yu Yuzhijin couldn’t help but ponder deeply.
It seems... Shirakawa generally takes good care of me, though not always gently, sometimes even gives me a whack on the head... The other night he even did such a terrible thing to me...
But overall, Shirakawa has helped me a lot; even when he was angry, he never used the artist’s topic to threaten me, truly reliable with principles...
Maybe, I should find an opportunity to repay Shirakawa?
