“Fumino-san, is the person behind me Kamikawa-kun and Nino-san?”
Chika swallowed nervously, not daring to turn around and face the reality of the world.
“Yes.”
Fumino nodded enthusiastically.
“Good day, both of you. What a coincidence to meet you here!”
After a moment of silence, Chika turned around with a smile and greeted them cheerfully.
“Good day.”
Ren responded softly.
“Long time no see, Fujiwara-san.” Nino said with a smile.
Since the day of the fireworks show, she and Chika hadn’t met again.
“Yes, it’s been a while.”
Chika answered awkwardly.
She had just planned to follow and investigate the two of them, but was discovered instantly. Where was her reputation as a love detective?
Moreover, she had just proudly explained her identity to Fumino.
Her own abilities would be questioned!
How embarrassing!
“Fujiwara-san, you don’t need to be too nervous. We’re not here to follow them. This is truly just a coincidence that we ran into them now.”
Fumino noticed her situation, leaned into Chika’s ear, and explained.
“Reasonable.”
Chika quickly accepted this perspective.
Because she had actually just come to visit the accessories area today and had no intention of following them. She just happened to meet and browse.
Therefore, her reputation as a love detective was not tarnished.
Seeing Chika regain her confidence despite her very guilty look, Ren was a bit confused.
What happened to her?
“Nino, are you here to buy accessories?”
Fumino took the opportunity to change the topic and ask for information along the way.
“Precisely, I’m buying accessories for Kamikawa-san.” Nino looked at Ren standing beside her, “I plan to give him accessories as a gift.”
“?”
Fumino glanced at Chika, then at Nino, raising a big question in her heart.
How?
Ren clearly didn’t like accessories, so why were they all planning to give him accessories?
There must be something wrong somewhere, right?
“Huh? I also planned to give accessories to Kamikawa-kun.”
Chika unconsciously revealed her thoughts, and after realizing, she quickly covered her mouth.
“No, I didn’t say anything. You didn’t hear anything.”
“I heard it.”
With such a short distance and the fact that she didn’t lower her voice, there was no reason Ren couldn’t hear it.
“Then forget it!” Chika said angrily.
“Sorry, I can’t do that.”
Ren wouldn’t erase his own memory.
“Now it’s not fun anymore.” Chika felt dizzy.
Nino extended an invitation: “Since you also want to buy accessories, let’s buy together.”
Faced with such an invitation, Fumino hesitated and planned to refuse.
After all, she knew from the group that this afternoon was their date. It wouldn’t be good if she and Chika got involved.
Moreover, Nino most likely made the invitation out of politeness and had no hope that she would agree.
However, before she could speak, Chika happily agreed: “Okay, Kamikawa-kun already knows what I want to give him, so there’s no reason to keep hiding it.”
Fumino: “...”
Does Chika not know how to read the atmosphere?
“Alright.”
Nino seemed surprised by her agreement, so she spoke stiffly.
‘You can guess, she just wants to continue being alone with Kamikawa.’
Fumino could see her true thoughts in an instant.
Nino calmed down and asked, “Kamikawa-san, is there any accessory you want?”
“No.”
Ren shook his head.
“Then it’s up to me to choose.” Nino confirmed.
“Yeah.”
Ren didn’t mind.
So, Nino stopped paying attention to him and began carefully searching in the accessories store.
After seeing her fail, Chika approached him and asked in a low voice: “Kamikawa-kun, what’s your current relationship with Nino?”
“Friends.”
Ren’s answer was very firm.
“But usually, friends don’t get that close.” Chika didn’t believe him, “Especially between a boy and a girl.”
Dating for three consecutive days was suspicious no matter how she thought about it.
“I don’t know, so I’m observing Nino.” Ren explained.
Chika asked: “Then what have you observed?”
“Nino said she wants to forget the past, but she often talks about things from the past.”
Ren mentioned something that always concerned him.
“Is it possible that Nino already knows you’re Kamikawa Naoki?”
Thinking of the speculation made by everyone in the group, Fumino voiced it.
“Really?”
This was beyond Ren’s expectation.
“Not necessarily, it’s just our guess.” Fumino continued, “But I think it’s very likely, otherwise, there’s no way to explain Nino’s recent abnormal behavior.”
“...I see.”
If that’s the case, it makes sense.
So, does Ren want to confess everything to Nino?
“Fujiwara-san, Fumino, aren’t you going to choose accessories?”
Nino found them not choosing accessories but hiding and whispering.
“Because we wanted to ask Kamikawa’s opinion, we wasted time.” Fumino replied hastily.
“Did you ask?” Nino seemed very interested.
Fumino deliberately pretended to be helpless and said: “No, Kamikawa is still the same. No matter how we ask, it’s useless.”
“Yes, I know that.”
After saying that, Nino walked towards Ren.
“Hold out your hand.”
“What’s wrong?”
Although he didn’t understand what she was going to do, Ren obediently held out his right hand.
Nino extended her clenched right hand over his right hand.
As her fingers opened, a keychain fell into his hand.
“I said I wanted to give you an accessory, but after much consideration, I think it’s more appropriate to give you a keychain.” Nino sighed, “After all, you don’t like wearing accessories.”
“What flower is this?”
The keychain was round with a bright yellow flower in the middle.
“A yellow rose.” Nino answered thoughtfully, “When given to a friend, the flower language it represents is friendship.”
