She was still holding her clothes in front of her chest when she raised them, and the clothes were instantly moved away, revealing her bare chest. The entire small and dark dressing room space was illuminated by her dazzlingly white skin.
Hayakawa's eyes widened instantly, his pupils shrinking to their limit, and the enormous roar of the iceberg being hit echoed in his mind once again.
Ah! This is the real deal…
Ogata Riju's face was initially blank, then instantly turned red from her neck to her pink earlobes. Her blood-red cheeks were filled with disbelief, and she was so shy that her eyes darted around like mosquito coils.
"Ah...ah...ah..."
She slightly opened her mouth, and a soft scream escaped from her pink lips. The small sound concealed boundless explosive power, and it was clear that it would resound throughout the entire dressing room and even the entire store in the next second.
"Calm down, Ogata. If you shout now, it'll all be over. They'll probably get the mall security to come."
Hayakawa quickly stuffed the clothes on the ground into her hands, put his arm around her shoulder with the other, and covered her mouth, saying, "Look how dark it is here, I didn't see anything just now."
"Huhuhu..."
Rizu Ogata seemed to have taken it to heart; she breathed heavily, trying to suppress her intense shame and urge to scream.
"Yes, that's it, take a deep breath."
Hayakawa breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to hand Ogata Rizu's old underwear to her: "You are a very rational girl, and shouting is not the only way to release your emotions."
When Ogata Riju saw the underwear that belonged to her, her face, which had relaxed a little, turned red again. It was her underwear that had been hanging on the wall before. She hadn't noticed it before, but now she realized that Hayakawa had seen it a long time ago.
My heart, which had been at peace, suddenly became restless and needed to be released, or it would explode.
She glanced at Hayakawa, then without hesitation, stood on tiptoe, lowered her head, and her pink lips parted slightly…
Chapter 210 Guancheng
The little girl gently closed her eyes, her long, curled eyelashes slowly approaching, her delicate, petal-like, rosy lips carrying a sweet and alluring scent, gradually moving towards the person in front of her.
Hayakawa froze, holding his breath.
What does Rizu Ogata want? Could it be… that she wants to… me?
Hayakawa's mind drifted to the idol dramas he occasionally watched on TV, where scenes of men and women kissing each other were something he never paid any attention to. Just like when Natsukawa Masuzu kissed him out of the blue before, he didn't care at all. However, at this moment, facing Ogata Rizu who was getting closer, he was filled with complicated emotions and his mind went blank. He didn't even make a move.
The next moment, he felt a wet contact and a tearing sensation on his shoulder.
Hayakawa: "..."
it hurts.
With her eyes closed, Rizu Ogata recklessly stabbed Hayakawa's shoulder with her two fangs. If she didn't relieve her embarrassment in this way, she would lose control of herself.
"Ouch! That hurts so much, Ogata!"
The intense stinging pain was unbearable even for the strong-willed Hayakawa. What was even more unbearable was the softness and moisture of Ogata Riju's pink lips touching hers, causing Hayakawa to growl through the pain, "Stop biting me, let go!"
"no,"
Whether out of shame and anger or genuine fear of being discovered, Rizu Ogata bit Hayakawa and refused to let go, saying in a muffled voice, "You did that kind of thing to me, and you're blaming me for biting you? If I hadn't bitten you, I definitely would have screamed!"
What did I do to you?
Hayakawa endured the pain with a stiff face, looking completely bewildered.
"What you just did..."
Ogata Rizu finally relented a little, puffing out her pink cheeks as she glared at Hayakawa and said discontentedly, "Are you planning to shirk responsibility? I won't allow you to do that kind of thing to me again!!"
"what?"
Hayakawa's eye twitched as he was about to say something when suddenly there was a series of knocks on the door.
"Knock knock knock! You all come out here! Hayakawa, the one inside, stop right now!"
A strange yet familiar girl's voice came from outside the door, filled with anxiety and worry: "Let go of Ogata Rizu! If you have a problem, come at me!!"
"Guest, guest, please don't do this, there are other guests inside!"
The sales assistant seemed to be drawn in as well, and said in a terrified voice, "If you keep doing this, I'll call security."
"Ogata Rizu, how are you?! Answer me now!"
The unfamiliar girl pulled hard on the changing room door, stamping her feet and anxiously comforting her, "Don't be afraid, Rizu, I'm coming to save you right now."
Hayakawa stared blankly at the banging wooden door of the locker room, his expression dazed.
What an unfamiliar voice. It's clearly not Fumino Furuhashi. Could it be someone I don't recognize? But why does this crazy tone feel strangely familiar? It's like I've heard it somewhere before.
"That voice..."
Rizu Ogata blinked, then suddenly realized, "It's Sekijo-kun."
"The fortress..."
Hayakawa turned around, her eyes wide: "Classmate?!"
……
Hayakawa did have a slight impression of Sawako Sekijo, though not much.
This tiny, insignificant impression came from a time when the school's monthly exam results for science subjects were released. At that time, Hayakawa stood below the blackboard displaying the rankings, staring with a cold gaze at the name that was trampled on his head.
Riju Ogata.
"what!"
Hayakawa's face paled when he saw that name. He felt as if every cell in his body was screaming in pain. He couldn't accept the cruel reality before him, having been defeated once, twice, three times in his proudest achievement.
"hateful…"
Hayakawa angrily turned to leave: "Next time, I'll show you what I'm capable of."
However, just as he was about to leave, Hayakawa suddenly noticed another name that was at the top of the list and seemed somewhat familiar.
It was Sawako Sekijo, ranked third below her.
"Sawako Sekijo?"
Hayakawa looked at the name and pondered for a moment: "I feel like I've seen my name before when the results were released. It seems like I'm often among the top students."
"Tanaka-kun, who is this Sawako Sekijo?"
Hayakawa thought for a moment, then called over an insignificant classmate who was standing nearby. "Your grades are that good? I've never heard of you before."
"Oh, it's Guan Cheng from Class C. It's normal that you don't know her; she's not much of a show-off at school, usually just holed up in the chemistry lab doing experiments."
Upon hearing the name, the student smiled and explained, "She's a very famous science genius in our school."
"A science genius?"
Hayakawa's lips twitched, his expression strange.
If she's a science genius, then what are I and... Ogata Rizu, who are far superior to her, compared to her? Are they unparalleled geniuses, one in a million?
It seems that's how it always was.
"No, no,"
Tanaka seemed to understand Hayakawa's expression and waved his hand to explain, "Sekijo usually focuses on preparing for the school's science competitions, not on exams. She's already planning to get into a prestigious university based on her competition results, so she probably just answers the questions casually. She's too lazy to write anything on the longer questions, but even so, there aren't many people who get better grades than her. That's how it is."
"Oh...I see."
Hayakawa nodded expressionlessly, then glanced at the name on the blackboard and gave a slight, cold laugh.
Just an ant.
Hayakawa turned his head with an arrogant expression and left the area.
That's just his personality. If anyone surpasses him in performance, even just once or by a single point, he absolutely will not allow it. That person will immediately transform from an insignificant passerby into an eyesore who says, "You are doomed to die," or "This kid must not be allowed to live," until he defeats them again.
Those like Ogata Rizu and Furuhashi Fumino, who repeatedly defeated him and showed no humanity whatsoever, were even more unforgivable, practically germs in this world.
But if someone is inferior to you, even if they are only one point lower, even if Tanaka says that she did not try her best, she immediately becomes an insignificant ant, with no other meaning besides highlighting your glorious years at school.
There's a saying that all people below a saint are ants, and Hayakawa is the saint of the world of Ichinose Academy. Naturally, he wouldn't allow the ants to provoke him. To him, Furuhashi and Ogata's existence is like two ants suddenly growing beautiful feathers, flamboyantly dancing around him.
You're quite an interesting ant.
His strong sense of pride made him unable to accept that such a small being was provoking him, which is why he felt angry. As for the other classmates at school, they could not leave any trace in Hayakawa's heart.
Even Sawako Sekijo, who is known as a science genius, is no exception.
Chapter 211 Hayakawa's Backstab
No matter how talented or divine, they are nothing compared to Emperor Hayakawa, unable to attract even a glance or a look from him.
That's what they say...
But you shouldn't make an entrance like that.
Hayakawa stared blankly at Sawako Sekijo, who was staring intently at him, her expression serious as if she were guarding against a thief.
"This is Sawako Sekijo,"
Rizu Ogata extended her hand and calmly introduced Hayakawa, saying, "She's also a classmate of ours and a friend of mine."
"Yes, yes! I am Rizu Ogata's best friend!"
Sawako Sekijo declared loudly and confidently, "I will never let her be bullied!"
Hayakawa: "..."
What's wrong with this person? He's been hostile towards me ever since this started.
Hayakawa looked at the chestnut-haired girl with a complexion. She was about the same height as Furuhashi Fumino, and had a high ponytail with a distinctive style. Two strands of long hair, like catfish whiskers, hung down beside her fair cheeks. Her delicate features had sharp angles. She was wearing the uniform of Ichinose High School underneath a white lab coat, which was commonly seen in chemistry classrooms, making her very conspicuous.
In short, she is a girl who is very different from Ogata Riju in every way, whether it is her height, figure, appearance, or personality. If Ogata Riju always minded that others treated her like a child and that it made her seem immature, then Sekijo Sawako is a bit too unconventional.
Hayakawa stared at her thoughtfully for a moment: Why does she seem so familiar? I feel like I've seen this face somewhere before.
"Guan Cheng, classmate,"
Rizu Ogata said helplessly, "I already explained that what happened earlier was a misunderstanding. I let Hayakawa-san go into the changing room because of what I was wearing..."
"No need to say more about Riju Ogata!"
Sawako Sekijo stopped Rizu Ogata with a serious expression, saying, "I know you've been threatened by this person, but you don't need to be afraid as long as I'm here. Tell me what's wrong, and I'll protect you."
After saying that, she reached out and pulled Ogata behind her, staring at Hayakawa with a fierce look like a mother hen protecting her chicks.
"Guan Cheng... what are you thinking?"
Rizu Ogata tilted her head, looking completely bewildered, and said, "I wasn't threatened at all. What happened just now was..."
"Ogata Rizu! Why did you hide this from me? Don't you trust me? Don't you trust me, your best friend?"
Sawako Sekijo said to Ogata with an indignant look on her face, "I heard everything just now, I heard your conversation with this Hayakawa in the locker room!"
Rizu Ogata was taken aback and subconsciously asked, "What did you hear?"
"You... you actually want me to say it here? You're something else, Ogata Riju. I'm impressed with you. Fine, I'll tell you then."
Guan Cheng blushed, then took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Although I heard bits and pieces of what was being said through the door, but..."
She paused for a moment, then gritted her teeth and read aloud a long string of words, some of which were spoken by Hayakawa and some by Ogata.
"Ah, Hayakawa-san, don't touch me like that, it tickles."
"I...I can feel it...I can feel it in that area..."
"Quiet down, do you want people outside to hear?"
"Then…"
Sawako Sekijo's face turned blood red, and her voice grew softer and softer, but she continued speaking with unwavering determination.
"It hurts, it hurts! Don't bite me, Ogata! Let go!"
"You did that to me, and you still blame me for biting you? If I hadn't bitten you, you would have screamed..."
"Then came a lot of irresponsible talk, about this and that, and so on,"
Sawako Sekijo couldn't continue. She turned her head away, her expression filled with shame and jealousy, and gritted her teeth as she said, "To do such a thing in the changing room, how enviable... how shameless!"
