Stealing Spree Chapter 1299 Lost

It’s the start of another week so, a ntor Program after the sixth period was in order.

As soon as the teacher vacated our classroom, almost everyone in our class excitedly prepared to et their respective ntors. Naturally, I was in a similar state.

After not seeing Arisa and Izumi-senpai during the weekend, I’m feeling more than just excitent. I’m missing them.

Thanks to the ntor Program, I could fully devote that ti to either of them. Though it would be better if they both showed up in the abandoned clubroom, Arisa despite her playfulness, was soone who always acted fairly. There were exceptions, of course, but leaving Ogawa by his loneso would probably make her feel bad.

At least, regarding the swap, the initial reason had already beco irrelevant. Another reason replaced it; to be alone with and rehabilitate Ogawa so that he could finally move on and leave us be.

Oh. Right. I haven't taken a jab at him today, have I? Am I feeling kinda generous today?

Obviously not. My girls and Hana’s return fully occupied my mind. I have no extra brain cells to commit to gloat at him.

But now that I think about it, should I walk up to him and ask him about Kazuha-nee? I couldn’t help but recall that interaction we had last Saturday. Did she continue tornting her little brother? Or did she soften up and eventually spoil him when they arrived ho?

Man… Considering what happened, Ogawa had possibly begun feeling threatened by . That the sa as the surrounding girls around him, her precious sister might be the next one to be stolen.

Ah! Could that be part of the reason why he's so quiet today even after seeing Nami kissing in front of the whole class?

Possible.

He couldn’t afford to provoke again and see use that ‘Kazuha-nee’ ammunition to shoot him down.

In any case, they said he's already trying to change or move on but a cuck will always be a cuck.

Uh. I guess Ichihara Jun still hadn’t absorbed all my pettiness. So were still directed to these cucks.

Right. I should stop wasting my valuable seconds thinking about him and start preparing for the ntor Program.

Having decided that, I quickly packed my stationeries, notebooks and so of the books that contained our lesson today in my bag.

Following that, I looked around , starting from Aya until I finished checking all of my girls. I could walk them all to their ntors but as always, having see them off was enough for them.

Their reason was… ‘I’m still going to visit them later, anyway’. They’re just doing their part not to trouble too much by going back and forth for each of them.

Next, my eyes naturally landed on the girl that’s slowly shaping up to be a chaos-incarnate.

She stood out once again. But this ti, it’s not because of her looks, fast adaptation, or sudden rise in popularity.

Instead, it’s because she looked so lost.

From my seat, I glanced at her and easily spied her rather confused state as she looked wherever, trying to understand why our classmates had started to pack up their things.

Most likely, Shio probably forgot to tell her about the ntor Program or there’s just no ti to do so earlier.

As for our classmates that had begun to imitate bees attracted to honey in regard to her angelic deanor, they had yet to inform her about it.

For sure, apart from , soone would soon notice it and tell her. But should I wait until that point?

It’s not like I’m trying to portray that I hate her. It’s just not wanting to play her obvious ga of ‘stealing my attention’.

Switching that up, I would be the one approaching her this ti. Although the two of us returning together before the third period gathered speculations, no one could conclude what exactly happened between us. And even when they asked the girl, she had a ready-made excuse, flinging them off our tail.

Yeah. She's totally prepared in deflecting personal questions.

It’s not only to protect herself but also my reputation.

Because of that, the only negative gazes that I was receiving ca from those who easily beca infatuated with her fake angelic halo. As for the girls, well, they’re just curious about what would happen next.

In fact, those who I pinpointed to have so sort of attraction to also started making a move.

For example, Kanzaki openly joined us during lunch. Shimura, as soone seated a little close to , tried to chat up whenever there was a chance – Satsuki not being around boosted her chances for to pay attention to her.

As for Misumi… well, she’s one of the curious types. The sa as what I heard earlier – their musings about – the girl asked if there was progress with my confessions to the girls; not including herself.

Did I answer that? Not directly. I just showed her how I grabbed Aya’s hand and the adorable girl responded to it by fitting her fingers between the gaps of mine. It’s lewd enough for her to retreat back to her seat.

Well, that’s that. I soon found myself making my way to Hana.

Ignoring the attention that I instantly got when soone pointed at , I stood before Hana’s desk and then called Chii over.

The fake gyaru ca over quickly, a little excited. Well, while she’s shaken about Hana’s aggressive approach to , she’s optimistic about the chances of their friendship being reinstated. Nonetheless, it’s not blind faith anymore.

Earlier, she declared that if Hana wanted a fair fight for my attention, then she wouldn’t back down at all.

That’s admirable… but look at her. I could sohow make out an imaginary tail behind her, wagging excitedly.

The urge to dote on her ca on strong but there’s a reason I called her over.

Explaining my guess to her, not only Chii but everyone who heard it had a look of astonishnt; including Hana herself.

“Excuse , what’s the ntor Program?” Sa as admitting that I was right on the mark, Hana raised her hand.

Chii, having recovered from that shock, readily answered, “It’s like this, Hana…”

And she went on to explain the purpose of it as well as how she could get a ntor.

“I see. So, there’s that interesting program here. I don’t want a new ntor so… can I just join you, Ruki? To beco a ntee to whoever is your ntor?” With her eyes blinking with a hint of fascination, Hana brought up that suggestion.

“Rather than that, why don’t you join Chii? She’ll be able to guide you better along with her ntor.”

“Is that… so?” Without hiding it at all, Hana’s reluctance was properly conveyed. As always, she wanted to go with rather than soone else.

I quickly checked Chii's expression. It would be bad if she took it negatively, after all.

Luckily, my guess was so off.

She got more motivated instead as she grabbed Hana’s wrist, “Co on. We won’t bite, Hana. Besides, I have another intention… I’ll have you admit the reason why you suddenly left after that spring break.”

“… That’s. Didn’t I answer that already? Give a break.”

A little out of character, Hana tried to escape from Chii’s gaze. The tone of her voice contained a little dishonesty on her part. She’s just trying to escape being cornered by Chii.

Yesterday, since the other girls were there at our house, Chii and Hifumi failed to make the girl open up to them. And because of how chaotic that eting beca, they lost that chance.

Surely, that’s not enough to make them give up. And now here we are.

With Hana remaining seated, there’s just no escape from Chii’s persistence.

“I don’t believe it. Co on. Pack your things. I’ll co for you in a bit.”

After saying that, Chii returned to her seat, humming cheerfully. But as though she forgot one thing, she glanced back and trained her eyes on .

Slowly, her lips arced into a wide grin as she noiselessly muttered, “Thank you, Kii.”

Yep. She definitely understood why I called her over. It’s for to beco the bridge that would connect the two of them again.

When Chii removed her gaze from and continued walking back to her seat, I heard the girl in front of helplessly whisper, “She changed a lot but at the sa ti, she remained that clumsy girl who’s very bad at hiding her true thoughts.”

“Hey, she’s still clumsy, yes. But she has already changed a lot. You’ll be surprised.” Replying to that with the sa wide grin as though I was trying to market my girl to her.

“A little advice. You cannot remain stuck in the past, Hana. Take a step out of it and face the present. I’m sure it will be beneficial to you.” I continued at the sa ti as I reached for her ear and gave it a little pinch.

As soon as I retracted my hand, I turned around to return to my seat.
