Strong Ren
"Where to go?"
Knowing that Hayasaka needed help, Ren asked.
People like her who don't bring an umbrella and have to shelter from the rain must be going somewhere.
"Um… Kamikawa-kun, can you take me straight home?" Hayasaka looked embarrassed, "My house is a bit far from here."
When she said home, she meant returning to the Shinomiya residence.
If it were anyone else, she would never allow anyone to send her to the Shinomiya Residence, that would expose her relationship with the Shinomiya family, and in turn, her relationship with Kaguya would also be exposed.
But Ren was different, when Hayasaka investigated him, she had basically exposed her relationship with Kaguya.
As long as Ren wasn't too stupid, he would definitely be able to guess the relationship between herself and Kaguya.
Therefore, she had nothing to hide, so it was better to admit it directly.
This will probably leave a good impression in his mind and pave the way for the future.
"Okay," Ren agreed.
Helping a classmate, such as walking someone home, suited him perfectly, because walking someone home could be considered hanging out, but there was only one other person by his side.
"This is really troublesome, Kamikawa-kun."
Saying that, Hayasaka took one step forward and walked towards the umbrella.
"Let me show you the way."
"Um."
When she saw him, she didn't say anything about going to the train stop, and Ren didn't take the initiative to bring it up.
He prefers to walk rather than take the train.
On foot, he can see the scenery along the road and the people on the side of the road, but in the train, he can only see the people on the train, compared to the two, he prefers the former.
"Just go straight first."
After thinking about which way home would take longer, Hayasaka smiled and pointed the way.
For example, there are not many opportunities to be alone with him and ask for information, she should stay as long as possible.
Based on this idea, the option of returning quickly by train was eliminated.
"Okay."
After Ren agreed, he took her forward.
Realizing that Ren wasn't paying attention to her, Hayasaka took advantage of this time to send a message to the driver so he didn't have to come pick her up.
Although it was convenient to go home by car, she still endured getting drenched in the rain compared to the information.
She just didn't know why, but after being under the umbrella, she always felt that the rain seemed lighter than before, and the heavy rain couldn't hit her at all.
This is very strange.
To be honest, Ren still has a relatively good impression of Hayasaka.
Because after she promised him not to explore his true appearance, she really never bothered him again.
This relieved him greatly.
Thinking about this, Ren subconsciously pushed away the glasses he used to disguise himself, but he didn't touch anything.
"?"
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that because his identity today was Naoki, he didn't wear glasses.
Additionally, he wasn't used to wearing glasses, and after spending time with Nino, Ren hadn't thought of using his superpower to conjure glasses and put them on.
No wonder Hayasaka couldn't recognize him after seeing him.
At this moment, Ren finally understood how strange her behavior was.
Glancing at Hayasaka who was playing with her cellphone, he took the initiative and said, "Don't tell anyone else about my true appearance."
"Eh?"
Hayasaka who had just put down the cell phone and heard this sentence before she could speak.
"Please."
After thinking about it, Ren added another sentence.
"…"
Hayasaka finally realized what Ren said and analyzed it in her heart.
Ren had just used his original appearance to walk towards her, but now he asked her to help hide his original appearance.
In other words, he just came without realizing that he wasn't wearing glasses.
He obviously didn't want his true appearance to be revealed, but he didn't realize that he wasn't wearing glasses now.
Did he just start hiding his true appearance and still not used to it?
As a professional maid with experience in this field, Hayasaka quickly recalled the inexperience she had when she first learned to disguise herself.
Besides, Ren had asked Chika to do this before.
It seemed like it really showed that he was just starting to hide his true appearance.
Then, here's the problem.
What's the purpose of hiding his true appearance?
Did he just think that his handsome appearance would attract attention, or...
Suppressing the doubts in her heart, Hayasaka agreed: "Okay, just treat this as a gift for Kamikawa-kun sending me home."
"Thank you," Ren thanked her.
"You're welcome." Hayasaka waved her hand, then changed the topic and continued, "By the way, Kamikawa-kun is very handsome. I think you are a very popular guy among girls."
"Not handsome, very ordinary. Not popular," Ren argued.
"How could it be? I think Kamikawa-kun must have been very popular when you were in junior high school." Hayasaka deliberately started the conversation.
"Absolutely not."
Ren never went to junior high school, so he wasn't popular.
(Lie)
Hayasaka quickly judged the authenticity of his answer.
With his looks, how could Ren be unpopular in junior high school? Don't underestimate the girls of today.
Except Ren never went to junior high school.
Hayasaka added a label of caution to him in her heart, and then asked: "So Kamikawa-kun, do you have any thoughts about getting a girlfriend? Many of my friends like men like you. I can introduce her to you."
"NO."
The so-called girlfriend was still far from him, and Ren had not considered it.
"So, Kamikawa-kun, do you want to concentrate on your studies now?" Hayasaka continued to ask.
"NO."
Ren wants to be an ordinary person now, and it doesn't matter what he studies.
"…"
Hayasaka felt like she could no longer continue the conversation with him.
Whatever questions she asked, he always answered in the negative and didn't say much more.
How can she get information?
Logically, when a high school boy walks with a beautiful girl like her, shouldn't he talk more to show off himself?
Even though he was embarrassed to talk to her, he should have a shy manner, right?
But Hayasaka couldn't feel Ren's embarrassment at all, just as a matter of course.
As if everything he said was true.
Being able to lie calmly could be said to be quite powerful in a sense.
He is indeed a man who is appreciated by Kaguya.
The more often this happens, the more Hayasaka becomes attracted to him.
There was no other reason than to see if Ren was good at gathering information or if he was good at hiding it.
Hayasaka doesn't believe that she can't find out anything from him.
