Chapter 28 Hayasaka Ai wants to investigate...
"Kaguya-sama really knows how to order people around..."
If it's just an outsider... there shouldn't be much to investigate. During the lunch break, Hayasaka Ai spotted Uchiha Ryo eating lunch with Shirogane Miyuki in the classroom.
"He looks quite handsome, and he's also very academically gifted. Is he the kind of hard-working genius?"
Hayasaka Ai peeked out from the doorway, only to see Uchiha Ryo raise his head and meet Hayasaka Ai's gaze through the crowd in the classroom.
After a brief eye contact, Hayasaka Ai casually looked around, pretending to be looking for someone at the door, before returning to the corridor.
"Is it a coincidence? Or is he really that perceptive...?"
He lowered his head, took out his phone, and started taking notes. Uchiha Ryo: An external student, she gained considerable popularity among first-year students due to her outstanding looks. She joined the Classical Literature Club, ranking third in the entrance exam and first in the first monthly exam.
"This is all the information we have at the college. Let's take a picture and look it up properly when we get back."
Hayasaka Ai peeked into the classroom again, secretly showing the camera lens of her phone from her sleeve.
Not here?! The seat where Uchiha Ryo was originally was empty, while Shirogane Miyuki was eating and reading a book.
Where did he go?
"Do you want me to send you a selfie?"
"ah?!"
Hayasaka Ai turned around with lightning speed, and Uchiha Ryo, who had suddenly disappeared, was standing behind her, looking at her meaningfully.
"U...Uchiha-kun, when did you get here?"
Uchiha Ryo raised his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Let's take a picture first and investigate it properly when we get back."
"..."
"I remember you're Hayasaka from Class A. What can I do for you?"
Hayasaka Ai's eyes darted away slightly, revealing a somewhat shy demeanor.
Uchiha Ryo could roughly guess the other party's purpose; wasn't it that Kaguya sent him to gather intelligence? However...
Hayasaka Ai's glamorous outfit was quite popular at school. Her long blonde hair was tied in a side ponytail, and beneath her blue eyes was a slightly open collar. Her coat was tied around her waist, and her skirt was folded up to become a short skirt.
If a pretty and sexy girl who's popular on campus stands shyly in front of you, most people would probably have the misconception that "she might like me!"
But Uchiha Ryo wouldn't. Not only did he understand Hayasaka Ai's layered personality, but the system also didn't increase Hayasaka Ai's favorability at all.
"I'm sorry, Uchiha-kun. Actually... I had something to ask you, but I was afraid I didn't know you well enough, so I did it this way."
"Did you need something?"
Hayasaka Ai nodded. "Yes, it's something very important, so could we go to the library together to discuss it?"
Uchiha Ryo nodded. "I really can't refuse a lady's request."
"Great! Let's go then!"
Hayasaka Ai playfully waited for Uchiha Rin's application to be approved, then turned her head and winked.
What are you pretending for? Your affection level hasn't increased at all! It seems that Hayasaka Ai is the most difficult one to win over among all the characters.
The Shuchiin Library was nearly empty of students now that the exams were over. Hayasaka Ai pulled Uchiha Ryo to a corner of the library, her expression becoming awkward.
Could she be about to confess her feelings? No way! That's impossible. What did Kaguya Shinomiya send her here for?
Hayasaka Ai was inwardly distressed. She didn't really want to contact the mission target so soon, but if she didn't find a reason to come out, she would definitely arouse suspicion. After all, secretly investigating information... that kind of person doesn't seem like a good person.
"Congratulations on becoming the top student in the first year of Shuchiin Academy, Uchiha-kun! I'm so envious of geniuses like you!"
"Um."
Hayasaka Ai: "???"
Isn't this guy going to argue? I praised you as a genius, can't you at least humbly say it's the result of hard work?!
Uchiha Ryo: I suddenly want to go back. You, Hayasaka Ai, aren't increasing my affection level. I might as well go chat with Chitanda, who's in my class.
"Hey, Uchiha-kun, could you be my private tutor for a while? Of course, I'll pay you."
"The Shinomiya Family's Genius Maid Wants Me to Be Her Private Tutor?"
What kind of development is this? Girl, does your Kaguya-sama know what you're doing?
"Well, it's mainly because my grades have been so-so lately. Seeing that you're the top student, I was wondering if you have any special study methods or something."
Uchiha Ryo rested her chin on her hand. "Is that so? Hayasaka-san really thinks highly of me..."
The gyaru Hayasaka began to show her boldness, lying on the table and looking up into Uchiha Ryo's eyes.
"So, what was Uchiha-kun's answer?"
"Of course, you can review the material yourself while teaching others. So, when shall we begin?"
Hayasaka Ai's face lit up with excitement. "Great! Let's do it this weekend then. But it might be a bit noisy at my place, can I come to yours instead?"
Are there still lambs willing to walk into a trap these days? But Hayasaka Ai lives in the Shinomiya mansion, so it's definitely not suitable for her to bring her classmates home.
"Okay, I'll contact you this weekend."
After exchanging contact information with Hayasaka Ai on his phone, Uchiha Ryo shook his head as he watched the glamorous Hayasaka leave the library.
"This is really difficult. It will probably take some time before I can get Hayasaka Ai's G-spot."
.....
That afternoon, Ms. Yokoshima announced some exciting news: all of Class B's afternoon classes would be changed to arts and sports classes, which would be considered a half-day off.
On the playground, Uchiha Ryo lay half-reclined on the grass with Shirogane Miyuki, gazing at the sky.
"Being number one in the grade must be quite stressful; you're probably already famous throughout the school."
Shirogane Miyuki recalled the admiring glances the entire class cast at Uchiha Ryo after the results were announced at noon.
It's not uncommon for students from outside the academy to take first place in their grade, but Uchiha Ryo is different. He beat Kaguya Shinomiya to become number one.
Making the seemingly unapproachable Ice Princess Kaguya suffer defeat is enough to earn Uchiha Rin's respect.
"It's alright, but it's a bit boring to suddenly have to do PE without any classes."
Shuchiin Academy offers a wide variety of physical education classes. You can play volleyball, basketball, tennis, or even table tennis in the gymnasium. You can also try out the archery and kendo clubs in the club building, or, like Uchiha Ryo, just lie on the lawn and daydream.
"Go explore the area, and try anything that seems fun."
Uchiha Ryo brushed the grass clippings off his clothes and stood up, while Shirogane Miyuki sat awkwardly in place.
Him! Miyuki Shirogane is a little bit bad at sports... Rather than showing his weakness to his friends, he'd rather continue daydreaming.
By the way, he's also a member of the student council, so it would be good for him to take a break in the student council classroom at this time.
