Someone is unlucky

"Yuu!" 

When school started on Monday, Onodera immediately hugged her boyfriend, whom she hadn't seen for the entire weekend. She rubbed her face on his chest as if she wanted to mark her scent on him. 

"Calm down. Let me sit first, okay?" 

"Do you not miss me...?" 

Onodera looked up at him with watery eyes. 

"Of course, I miss you." Ishigami rubbed her cheek softly and said, "Let's go out later after school." 

"Okay~!" Still hearing those words, Onodera smiled sweetly, thinking that she should show him the surprise she had bought yesterday. 

Nevertheless, Iino just stared at the two of them with a blank expression before her name was called. 

"Iino. Iino." 

"Ah!" 

Iino was startled and then looked at her only friend, who had approached her. "Koba-chan?" 

"Here, you can take this." 

Kobachi suddenly took out something from her bag and gave it to Iino. 

"This is... a youkan? In a traditional bamboo wrapping, too? Where did you buy this?" 

While Iino was surprised, she didn't refuse Kobachi's gift since she loved to eat, and frankly, even if the youkan was quite big, she could eat all of them clean. 

"Nikko." 

"What? Did you go to Nikko?" 

"Yeah, enjoy that, okay?" Kobachi said with a smile, then looked up and saw Onodera was staring at her. 

"Nikko, huh?" Onodera also heard Kobachi's conversation with Onodera and then looked at her boyfriend. "Yuu, do you want to go on a trip, too?" If it had been a little moment ago, she might have noticed how unnatural Ishigami's expression was, but fortunately, he was able to hide it well. 

"Where do you want to go?" 

If it was someone else, it might be difficult, but as Onodera was his official girlfriend, he didn't mind going out with her. 

"Let's search to the south area." 

For some reason, Onodera didn't really want to go to the north area where Nikko was located and wished to go to the south area. 

"Okay." 

"So, where should we go?" 

When Ishigami wanted to say something, he noticed someone was staring at him. 

"...how about we talk about this later? You can think about which place you want to visit. I need to go to the student council for a bit." 

"Okay, good luck~!" 

While Onodera wanted to kiss his cheek or even his lips, there was still a time and occasion, so she held back, but it didn't matter since when school was over, then—

"Ishigami, don't forget to study instead of playing around!" 

Somehow, at the time, no one expected Iino to suddenly scold him. 

Ishigami was in doubt, but he nodded. "I know." Still, he didn't say much and left the class with his bag and as soon as he left, someone also followed him from behind. 

Nevertheless, Iino's nose twitched slightly, wondering why she smelled a familiar youkan from Ishigami's bag. 

Did Kobachi also send a youkan to Ishigami?

Yet, a certain possibility also appeared in her mind, but she quickly shook her head, thinking that it was impossible, especially when Ishigami had a girlfriend, and Kobachi wasn't that close to Ishigami. 

'It's impossible, right?' 

Still, if Ishigami knew Iino's thoughts, he would say that this girl's nose was as sharp as a puppy's! 

"Here you go." 

"Thanks!" 

On the place where there was no one, Ishigami took out the youkan he had bought and gave it to Kozue Makihara. "Don't bring it to the class. Keep it in your clubroom first." 

"I know. You don't have to worry." 

"Well, strangely enough, even if you appear unreliable, I can trust you in that area, though." 

"What did you mean by those words?! Are you saying that I am unreliable?!" 

"I am not saying that, okay?" Ishigami didn't want to pick a fight with Kozue since this girl held his secret, but—

"But I am surprised that you kept everything a secret, Kozue." 

"What? Do you want me to expose everything, Yuu?" 

Either way, there was no doubt that their relationship was weird. 

Were they close enough to call each other by their first names? 

Or did they have a distant relationship due to how this relationship began? 

Nevertheless, Kozue, who had a high EQ, which even hit the limit of human capability, knew that Ishigami had many relationships with many women, and she also understood that the one that Kobachi went with to Nikko was Ishigami. 

"Did you..." 

When Kozue wanted to ask, she quickly shut her lips, blushing since she could feel the change in Kobachi, but as Kobachi was an actress, she hid many things well, and her large glasses also hid most of her features, so no one noticed much. 

Yet, if one looked at Kobachi closely, especially the way she walked and the change in her impression, they would notice the change within her. 

"Hmm?" 

"Nothing." 

Sometimes, not knowing was better than knowing, especially when this matter had nothing to do with her. 

What Kozue just wanted was a bribe from Ishigami to keep her from saying anything, but then, was she going to keep quiet about his treacherous act?

If Ishigami was really that scumbag, who deceived many girls, then Kozue might do something, but she knew that wasn't the case. Instead, he just couldn't refuse the temptation from many beautiful girls, and then a messy relationship was born, and everything was initiated by all the girls. 

How could she even tell that even if Ishigami didn't say anything? 

Well, it was because her EQ was so high that she could see all the human relationships among all of the people around her. 

However, Kozue wondered what Ishigami would do with Onodera, who knew nothing. 

"Then, I will go back." 

"Okay." Kozue nodded but then said, "When there is a home economics lesson again, get me into your team!"

"I know." 

Nevertheless, watching Ishigami, who appeared disinterested in her, Kozue wondered whether she was so uncharming that she didn't even have him to have an interest in her. 

Was she so unattractive? 

As she thought so, she chomped the sweet red bean jelly on her hands and had to say it made her mood better. 

Still, did Ishigami have no interest in Kozue? 

Even if he did, it was impossible for him to say it clearly, okay? 

After all, he had a girlfriend, but what about Kozue's high EQ? 

Was it going to cause a problem? 

Frankly, he didn't think that this high EQ was a trouble; instead, she felt that all humans were the same; they thought of people's companionship, gentleness, and love. Even if they might be evil, treacherous, or had many other evil, unique, or strange traits, everyone was the same. 

If there was a difference, it was in how to approach them since trust wasn't something that one could get easily. 

Oh, there was also the problem of interest since no matter what, it would be hard for one to gain the love of others if the other party did not have an interest. 

If that happened, then what should they do?

If that was the case, one should change the target. 

However, it didn't mean that one should give up since it was like how coffee was. Not everyone loved it, but there were many who were crazy about it, right? 

Still, when he thought about going back to his class, a teacher called him.

"Ishigami, you are a member of the student council, right? Can you bring this missing item with you?" 

"..." 

Ishigami was speechless, but he nodded. "Okay, Sensei." He took the lost item with him, which happened to be a book. 

"Thank you. I am a bit busy today." 

The teacher thanked him repeatedly, then left. 

Watching his teacher leave, Ishigami thought that being a teacher wasn't easy since there were many things that one should do, especially those teachers from so-so high school since not only were their students full of variety from good to bad, but the parents were even more so as there were many parents who often called the teacher, asking about their children so much that they had never given a moment of break to the teacher. 

Still, that was the problem of being a teacher, he thought. 

For Ishigami, who didn't plan to become a teacher, he wouldn't say much and just hoped everything was okay silently. Nevertheless, looking at the book in his hands, he opened it directly, hoping for a name to be written so that it would be easy for him to search for the owner. 

Nevertheless, what welcomed him wasn't the name of the owner, but a manga, a shoujo manga, a manga intended for a woman to be exacted. 

Yet, there was a huge problem within this manga! 

'These characters...' 

Ishigami was familiar with the characters in the manga, or rather—

'Aren't they Kaichou and Shinomiya-senpai?!' 

This wasn't a Shoujo manga but a Doujinshi fanfiction, using Shirogane and Kaguya as the characters in this love story!

'President Shirogane x Kaguya-sama, a Chronicle of True Love...' 

Yet, while he was shocked by his discovery, whether it was due to the title or the story of the doujinshi, a timid voice was heard from behind. 

"Um... T-Treasury Ishigami... T-That's mine..." 

"......"
