"Hm?"
Kato gumi stopped and stepped closer to Asagiri. She deliberately put on an offended expression, but her tone was clearly teasing.
"So Utsunomiya thinks shopping with is boring and torturous. Is that because you think I'm a boring person?"
"Forget you. Even if…"
Asagiri suddenly paused, and Kato gumi blinked in confusion.
In her impression, Utsunomiya was always sharp tongued. No matter what situation he faced, he could bulldoze through it with sheer absurdity. This was the first ti she had ever seen him hesitate, like he genuinely did not know what to say.

Asagiri explained, dead serious.
"Shopping is so boring it feels like torture to , and yet the mont you asked, I still agreed."
He glanced at her.
"Do you really need to spell out what that ans?"
"Eh… when you put it like that, it kind of makes sense."
Kato gumi murmured to herself, then snapped back to her senses. She stared at Asagiri, her expression turning strangely moved.
"Utsunomiya… your way of dealing with girls is really smooth. Did you train it while handling Asuna and Kotoko?"
