"By the way, Hayakawa-san."

As soon as Fumino Furuhashi opened the book, she suddenly remembered something and said, "I'll transfer the money for the meal to you."

"Oh right, and mine too."

Upon hearing this, Rizu Ogata quickly took out her phone as well.

"No need, it's just the cost of a meal."

Hayakawa Shiro said nonchalantly, "I was the one who invited you here. Instead of paying for my meal, you should study hard to repay me."

"Where did you come from, model teacher?"

Fumino Furuhashi made a curt remark without any expression, then took out her phone and said seriously, "No, we need to settle the bill. We're staying here for a long time, so does Hayakawa-kun have to pay for every meal?"

"It's really troublesome."

Hayakawa Shiro reluctantly took out his phone and said, "Add me on Line and then send it to me."

"Ah."

Fumino Furuhashi operated her phone and soon added Hayakawa Shiro to her and Ogata's friend lists.

"how much is it?"

The ancient bridge asks the question.

"Let me see,"

Hayakawa opened the food delivery app, glanced at the contents, and said, "It'll be 2400 yen in total."

"The omelet rice with magic added is so expensive!"

Fumino Furuhashi couldn't help but say, "It tastes exactly the same as regular omelet rice."

"Uh...it's probably because I didn't let her cast any magic."

Hayakawa Haku raised an eyebrow, squinted, and leaned lazily against the sofa, like a maple leaf lying on the ground.

The two of them each transferred 800 yen to Hayakawa, and Hayakawa accepted it.

"Let's create a group chat while we're at it."

Hayakawa glanced at the two new girls in his friend list and suggested, "We can talk about anything in the group chat this way."

The two women naturally had no objections, and so a group called "Mutual Learning" was born.

Fumino Furuhashi looked at the profile picture of her friend Hayakawa on her phone, and her pretty face turned slightly red.

Ah, I was planning to keep my distance from him for the sake of studying, so how did I end up adding him on Line so naturally? Even though it's for the sake of studying, it still feels a bit off!

Ogata Rizu calmly looked at Hayakawa, who had been added to the list, with a barely perceptible smile on her small face.

I've gained another friend.

As for Hayakawa Shiro, he stared at the "mutual learning" group with a blank expression, revealing a hint of woodenness.

Mutual learning? Mutual help? I don't see that at all!

Where is the mutual help? Isn't it just me helping both of you unilaterally?

Learning continues.

……

"This requires the use of substitution."

Hayakawa Shiro glanced at the problem handed to him by Furuhashi and explained, "Although the problem has X in the form of cubic and quintic powers, these odd powers are not within the scope of high school students. So logically, we need to change it to an even power first. Therefore, we need to eliminate those odd powers and leave the even powers and constant terms. So we need to replace X with terms that can eliminate some of the difficult terms. Generally, we replace X with a+1/a or a-1/a, and that will solve the problem. It's a fixed routine, nothing difficult."

"Uh…"

After hearing Hayakawa's words, Fumino Furuhashi's eyes swirled with anger, and her face turned deathly pale as if she had suddenly fallen seriously ill.

"Um, are you alright?"

Hayakawa Shiro looked at the desolate state of the old bridge and asked a question, somewhat speechless.

"I'm fine~"

Fumino Furuhashi's expression was blank, and she said in a hollow tone, "Just thinking about how I need to understand all these profound and obscure math problems to get into the astronomy department makes me feel like my goal is a bit too unrealistic. Maybe I'm just as insignificant as seaweed in the water, unworthy of truly understanding the celestial bodies. I should just float and float in the water... hehehe..."

She grinned and let out a strange laugh.

"broken?"

Hayakawa Shiro was startled and quickly stopped him, saying, "Cheer up, Furuhashi, it's not time to give up yet."

"This is just the beginning, don't be so discouraged."

Hayakawa Shiro patted Furuhashi on the back and said, "I'll help you understand."

"what…"

Fumino Furuhashi blushed slightly when Hayakawa touched her body. She glanced at Hayakawa warily and subtly shifted her body.

How did we suddenly run into each other?

This is taking advantage of me, isn't it? This is taking advantage of me so casually.

Now you can pretend to touch my back casually, but next time you'll probably reach for my thigh. I don't know how much worse you'll get if this happens a few more times.

No, I must protect my body.

Fumino Furuhashi lowered her head warily, her hands covering her body.

"Speaking of which, there's the old bridge, and Ogata,"

Hayakawa Shiro looked at the two girls and asked hesitantly, "Do you two have any clubs?"

Chapter Seventeen: Please [X] Stay Single Forever

"Societies?"

Fumino Furuhashi looked up, puzzled, and said, "No, I've been studying in the library with you and Rizu every day after school, so I definitely haven't participated in any club activities."

Rizu Ogata chimed in from the side, "Me too."

"That's it,"

Hayakawa Shiro smiled and said, "I thought you two would definitely join a club like the Chemistry Club or the Literature Club."

If you actually join, you'll be forced to leave the club.

"How could that be? Rizu and I don't have time to participate in clubs."

Fumino Furuhashi smiled slightly, her entire demeanor instantly blossoming like a beautiful flower, and said, "Although I really love literature."

Hayakawa Shiro's face turned pale.

"But even if I wanted to join a club, I couldn't. Ichinose Academy doesn't have a literature club."

Ancient bridge, Wennai Road.

Hayakawa Shiro's complexion improved slightly.

"I won't go. Although our school has a chemistry department, I don't want to participate."

Rizu Ogata calmly replied, "I have no interest in chemistry."

Hayakawa Shiro looked at Ogata with the deepest affection: What a good boy, I will always be good to you.

"I would probably join if there were a board game club,"

Rizu Ogata's eyes lit up: "I'm more interested in this."

Hayakawa Shiro: "..."

This man is hopeless.

"And what about you, Hayakawa-kun?"

Seemingly intrigued by Hayakawa Shiro's topic, or perhaps wanting to relax after studying, Fumino Furuhashi looked at Hayakawa and said, "You're definitely not in a club, but with so many clubs at our school, which ones are you most interested in?"

"me?"

Hayakawa Shiro hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not really interested in clubs at all; I don't really like them."

"Is that so?"

Fumino Furuhashi was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "There's nothing I can do about it, after all, Hayakawa-san is a good student."

"However, there are clubs that I really hate."

Hayakawa Hakudao.

Fumino Furuhashi raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at Hayakawa curiously: "Hmm? For example?"

"Soccer club, volleyball club, baseball club, swimming club..."

Hayakawa rattled off a string of names without hesitation, mostly sports clubs.

"They're all sports clubs,"

Fumino Furuhashi was a little embarrassed, but she forced a smile and said, "So Hayakawa-san doesn't like sports."

In Japanese high schools, the top of the hierarchy of clubs is the sports club. Even if a boy is average in appearance, height, grades, and personality, he may still find a decent girlfriend if he is in a sports club. This is most serious in the soccer club. For example, Tanaka, who strongly pursued Furuhashi, was a member of the soccer club.

Simply put, the sports clubs at the Japanese high school are the popular groups in the school, and Hayakawa Shiro clearly doesn't like them.

"It's not that I hate sports, after all, I'm very good at sports. I just hate these clubs."

Hayakawa said, "I feel there's a problem with the recruitment criteria."

"Uh...where?"

Fumino Furuhashi gripped the sofa beneath her tightly.

"Many people there have boyfriends or girlfriends."

Hayakawa Shiro said expressionlessly, "Don't you think there's something wrong with this?"

Fumino Furuhashi: "..."

"I think the school should drastically reduce the funding for these clubs."

Hayakawa Shiro earnestly suggested, "Reduce the price by 50,000 yen per couple."

"The taxes are too heavy!"

Fumino Furuhashi looked at Hayakawa with incomprehension: "And this kind of reason..."

"Is there a problem? It's normal to pay a price for something as illegal as dating in school."

Hayakawa's face revealed a tyrant-like indifference as he said in a hollow voice, "It's a couples tax, a couples tax."

Both Rizu Ogata and Fumino Furuhashi remained silent.

"I never imagined Hayakawa-san's thinking was so extreme,"

The science-minded girl sat upright on the sofa, looking at Hayakawa with a surprised gaze and a confused look in her eyes, saying, "I think I need to change my opinion of Hayakawa-san."

Fumino Furuhashi lowered her head, her face slightly flushed.

Jealousy... an implication.

Hayakawa's words clearly reveal her jealousy of guys who have girlfriends, and she's also subtly hinting at her own desire for one.

Another trap. This guy, whose lower body is the center of his will, is too cunning. If it weren't for me, I would have definitely fallen for it.

Fumino Furuhashi silently turned her head away, not daring to meet Hayakawa's gaze, and then quickly suggested, "Let's hurry up and study."

"it is good."

Upon hearing this, Hayakawa immediately stopped complaining and began to study.

……

Time flies, and before long it was late at night.

"what…"
