“Hey, wait a minute! I'm looking for that!" Interrupting the peaceful landscape behind was a loud voice from the center of the store.
" Hurry up ! Everyone is waiting! "
" Oh really !? Ask them to complain directly to me! “
Sounds like trouble… Two boys are glaring at each other as they seem to be starting to argue. The one with the disgruntled expression was the familiar red-haired boy. He was clutching a cup of noodles in his hand.
“What is going on here? ”
“Oh? Who are you? “
I was going to have a friendly talk, but the red-haired guy mistook me for another enemy and shot me a glare.
“I'm Ayanokouji from the same class. I speak up because I think there's a problem here. ”
After explaining, the redhead lowered his voice after understanding the situation.
“Oh… I remember you. I forgot my student card. Forgetting is forgetting that also means forgetting to bring money."
After seeing his empty hand, he started walking towards the dormitory. Maybe he left it there. To be honest, the fact that that card was needed for every payment hasn't been imprinted on my memory yet.
“I can pay for you now, if you're okay with it. It'll be troublesome if you go back and get it — I don't mind you using your points. "
“…That's right. That bothers me. Good thing you're here, thanks."
The distance to the dormitory isn't that big of a deal. But by the time he gets back here, the queue might be long since it's lunch time. ”
“…My name is Sudou. I owe you one time. " "Nice to meet you, Sudou."
I took the cup of noodles from Sudou and went to the hot water dispenser. Horikita felt surprised after seeing that short exchange.
“You really are a person who is easily influenced by the first meeting. Are you planning to be that guy's loyal servant? Or how do you try to make friends? “
“Instead of making friends, I'm just trying to help him. Besides that, nothing else. ”
“You don't seem to be afraid of his appearance at all? "
" Be afraid ? Why should I be afraid? Because he looks like a thug? “
“A normal person would try to stay away from that type of person.”
“Haaa, he doesn't look like a bad person anyway. At the same time, he is not afraid."
“Only people who don't have any self-protective measures stay away from these types of people. If he seems violent, I will drive him away from me. That's why I'm not scared at all. ”
Every time Horikita said something , it was always something out of the ordinary , when she said ' banish , ' what did she mean ? Did she bring a bottle of pepper spray against the green-bearded demon?
“End of shopping. The other students will get annoyed if we wander around for too long. “
We end up shopping. After presenting the student ID card to the machine, the transaction is completed quickly. It will even be faster because there is no change in change .
“It is true that it can be used as money…”
