Chapter 79 How do you know so much about Yukinoshita's affairs?
Upon arriving at the apartment, I took the elevator to the 6th floor.
After the three girls parted ways, they returned to their own rooms.
Shinji Kaminaga returned to 606, put down his schoolbag, changed into casual clothes, and prepared to go out to buy groceries.
At that moment, Yukino Yukinoshita put down her schoolbag and came over, her face flushed, standing at the door of his room.
Shinji Kaminaga smiled and looked at her flushed face, then said, "Would you like to come in and sit down? But I have to go out now; as we agreed, I'm going to buy some groceries."
"Okay, go ahead, I'll come in and see if you've made a mess of the room."
Yukino Yukinoshita lowered her head and muttered something softly before passing by him and entering his room.
"Yukino."
Suddenly, someone called out affectionately and hugged her slender waist from behind.
"Ugh—Idiot, don't do that."
Yukino Yukinoshita trembled, instinctively wanting to struggle, but her girlish reserve prevented her from responding to his intimacy so frankly.
She was already flustered enough by the kiss in the club earlier.
He hugged her again, and she was so nervous that her heart felt like it was going to jump out of her chest.
"Don't move." Shinji Kaminaga breathed into her ear. "I'll just hug you for a bit, Yukino. Please tidy up my room, okay? I'll be right back."
After saying that, he loosened his grip on her slender waist and strode out the door.
Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but turn around and look at his back. She pursed her lips, clutched her pounding heart, and her eyes revealed a tender affection.
"Idiot, come back early! Don't you dare peek at other girls' legs outside!"
Shinji Kaminaga waved his hand, indicating that he understood.
After his figure disappeared, Yukino Yukinoshita touched her burning cheeks and turned to go into the room.
As soon as he entered the elevator, Shinji Kaminaga discovered that someone was already inside.
With long golden hair, an angelic face, and a slender figure, she is Shiina Mahiru.
"Oh, what a coincidence, Shiina-kun, are you also going out to shop?"
Shiina Mahiru smiled and nodded.
"Yes, we're running low on food supplies at home."
"How about we go together? With me here, you don't have to worry about getting harassed by thugs."
"Where did all these thugs come from? But it's alright, I'll leave it to you, Kaminaga-kun, to be my protector."
Shiina Mahiru spoke frankly and stood naturally beside him.
However, the two ran out of things to say after that.
The atmosphere became somewhat somber for a moment.
Seeing this, Shinji Kaminaga couldn't help but tease, "As for my thank-you gift, Shiina-kun, have you prepared it yet? A bag of cookies won't satisfy my appetite."
Shiina Mahiru couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard this.
"How can you do this? You actually asked for a gift! Now I know why Yukinoshita always pinches you. Kaminaga, you're so shameless!"
"Thank you for the compliment. Just tell me whether you'll give it to me or not!"
Shinji Kaminaga said shamelessly, his eyes scanning her cute figure up and down, "If you don't have that, I'll accept it if you offer yourself to me."
"Pah, you wish! Believe me or not, I'll record what you just said and play it for Yukinoshita later?"
As Shiina Mahiru spoke, she waved her phone in feigned anger, giving him a threatening look.
But with her angelic and delicate face, making such an expression only makes her look cute.
Shinji Kaminaga pretended to be scared and rubbed his waist. "No, please, angel, have mercy! My waist can't take Yukino's abuse anymore."
"Pfft, don't give me that. And I'm not some kind of angel, don't call me that, um—it's embarrassing."
Shinji Kaminaga smiled slightly and said very seriously, "But I really think Shiina-san is a gentle girl like an angel."
"Thank you for being Yukino's friend."
"Hey, why are you thanking me? I should be thanking Yukinoshita-san. I'm honored to be friends with her."
"Hehe, I just wanted to thank you. After all, Yukino doesn't have many friends. Although I'm a man and can protect her safety, I can't give her the friendship between girls."
"Of course, Kosho is also Yukino's good friend, but since they're in different classes, with Shiina-kun around, Yukino definitely won't encounter the embarrassing situation of having her shoes hidden indoors."
Hearing his words, Shiina Mahiru's eyes became complicated.
"Hey, Kaminaga-san, are you and Yukinoshita dating? I can tell you're so kind to her, you really care about her."
Upon hearing this, Shinji Kaminaga smiled and asked in return.
What do you think? Are we dating?
"I think so, but looking at Nishimiya's expression, it doesn't seem like it."
Shiina Mahiru opened her mouth, but ultimately did not ask him about his feelings for Nishimiya Shoko. After all, it would be too presumptuous to ask such a question, and she and he were not very familiar with each other yet.
Shinji Kaminaga waved his hand, "Don't overthink it. For me, protecting the people I care about is enough. Why rush into defining our relationship?"
"In short, I'll be asking Shiina to take care of Yukino for all the team activities in class from now on. After all, she's a bit of a stickler for things and rejected other people's friendships from the start."
"Actually, back in junior high, there were girls who were attracted to Yukino and approached her with good intentions, trying to befriend her."
"However, Yukino's excellence later made that girl feel inferior to Yukino, and her admiration gradually turned into jealousy."
"The boy that girl liked confessed to Yukino, but Yukino rejected him without hesitation, so the girl started to hate Yukino."
"She even started spreading rumors about Yukino, secretly hiding in a corner to maliciously slander Yukino."
"And then?" Hearing this, Shiina Mahiru felt a pang of heartache. Betrayed by her friend, it's no wonder that Yukinoshita doesn't trust girls who approach her anymore and doesn't want to make friends.
"Later, naturally, Yukino uprooted her completely. The girl had no choice but to publicly apologize to Yukino, but because of this, she could no longer continue attending school and had to transfer."
"She herself can't stand the rumors and the strange looks from others, yet she uses them to maliciously slander Yukino. How ironic."
At this point, Shinji Kaminaga suddenly raised his hand and pressed down on Mahiru Shiina's shoulder.
Seeing her pupils widen slightly, he said earnestly, "Shiina-kun, Yukino is a very gentle, kind, and sensitive girl. Please take good care of her in class from now on!"
"Yes, I will!"
Shiina Mahiru paused for a moment, then immediately nodded solemnly and agreed to his request.
She would have done it even if he hadn't said anything.
Because Yukino was her savior, and also her senior in her shrine maiden training, her senior sister!
"But didn't Yukinoshita go abroad to study? How do you know so much about her, Kaminaga-kun?"
"Ahem, well, I have my own methods, but it's not convenient to talk about them. After all, as you know, there are all sorts of mysterious forces in this world."
Shinji Kaminaga quickly brushed it off.
After all, he couldn't very well tell Shiina Mahiru that the Beta Wand on Yukino was essentially her eyes.
And Yukino sometimes takes a bath—cough cough, the Beta Wand is kept in the clothes basket.
Basically, everything is visible at a glance.
Naturally.
He had trouble sleeping for a while.
