I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo Chapter 482: Weird mood

Chapter 482: Weird mood

The next day, when the literature club started, Reiji Kiriya realized something wasn't right and asked, "Where is Usa?"
"...."
Everyone was in silence for a moment before their eyes subconsciously looked at Ritsu.
On the other hand, Ritsu didn't say anything and just read her book, but even if she didn't say anything, she could feel the stares of the majority of the people inside the club was on her. She frowned slightly and wondered what she should say in this situation.
However...
"Yes, Sunohara-kun?" Kiriya looked at Nana, who raised her hand.
"Usa was rejected by Ritsu before," Nana said frankly.
"....." Everyone.
Even Shishio's lips twitched, but he didn't say anything since it wasn't taboo to talk about this matter. Also, instead of letting a strange awkwardness permeate this club, it was better to be frank and tell what really happened.
Still, Shishio looked in Ritsu's direction, wondering how this girl was going to handle this situation.
"I see..." Unexpectedly, Kiriya only nodded and said, "Well, it can't be helped. Let's just wait for him to recover."
"Can he recover, Sensei?" Maiko asked curiously.
"Probably yes, probably not." Kiriya didn't give a straight answer since everyone had their own way of recuperating from the rejection. Still, the worst-case scenario was that Usa would quit the literature club.
However, even Kiriya and Shishio didn't really want Usa to quit since they knew Usa could become free labor for them.
The majority of members of this club were female, so it was impossible to expect them to lift many heavy things.
However, Usa was a male, so it was a different matter.
Still, if Usa knew his existence in the literature club was for free labor, he might cry.
Everyone already knew why Usa didn't come, but they expected Kiriya to continue to talk about it.
However, Kiriya didn't mention Usa again. Instead, he asked, "So, is there something you want to do today?" Frankly, the literature club wasn't that busy. Instead, it was quite free, especially when everyone was only tasked to create a story for the journal they would sell at the cultural festival.
If there was something to be added, it was the fact that Kiriya had given a chance for everyone to become a writer, and if they wanted to enter a writing competition at the publishing house where Kiriya published his book.
Lastly, while the mid-term exam might take a while to be held, it was better to prepare since this school was quite strict with the grade.
Still, after they talked for a while, their conversation started to move in a different direction.
Shishio looked at Mai and asked, "Mai, you're going to work on the adaptation of Kiriya-sensei's novel mid-term exam?"
"Yes." Mai nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "How about you all visit me later?"
"Eh?"
They were surprised, but they quickly nodded.
"Okay, okay, let's visit the place where Mai is going to shoot her movie!"
"It's going to be interesting!"
"I am all fired up!"
However, Miu quickly stopped them and said, "Everyone! Please don't trouble Mai! Also, is it alright for us to interrupt such an important activity?" While she wanted to go since she was curious, she was afraid they might trouble Mai.
"It's okay." Mai nodded and said, "After all, the writer of the novel is here." She looked at Kiriya since as long as he nodded, everything would be okay.
"Sure, why not?" Kiriya nodded without hesitation and said, "It's almost summer after all, and the shooting is going to be held in Izu. It might be great to spend a camp there."
"Izu!"
They started to imagine their trip to Izu, and somehow they became even more excited.
Shiina pulled Saki's sleeve and asked, "What's so special about Izu?"
"...I don't know." Saki had never visited Izu after all, so she didn't know anything and looked at Shishio.
"Well, what's so special about Izu? It should be beach, onsen, zoo, wasabi, and capybara hot spring," Shishio said.
Leaving the others aside, they were dumbfounded when they heard about the capybara hot spring.
"Capybara hot spring?!"
Shishio told them about the zoo on the Izu, and after hearing it, they became excited.
However, Mai's expression became sullen since she was in the Izu because of working. It was impossible for her to play!
Mai somehow felt jealous when she thought about how everyone would play around with the Izu while she had to work. Still, her hand was held by Shishio, and he said, "Let's have a secret trip with the two of us."
Mai looked at Shishio and thought her mood had recovered now.
Still, Shishio must admit, all the trips he had gone, they were all on the side of the beach, near the sea. He had never gone to the mountains or the center part of this country. After all, this country was famous for a lot of mountains, so it would be a shame if he didn't go there, right?
However, his thought was interrupted when Mea asked, "But where are we going to stay?" It was obvious that it wouldn't be cheap to stay on the Izu. Her family was a normal family and had a lot of siblings, so she had to work part-time, depending on the situation. Also, she wasn't Shishio's girlfriend, and even if she was his girlfriend, she felt it was too shameful if she expected him to treat her.
"Stay, huh?" Kiriya thought for a moment and wondered whether it would be okay for them to stay at the camp. However, considering how the situation was, it might be dangerous to stay at this time, considering it was hot and a storm might happen. It would be nice if they could stay in the hotel, but he knew it would take a lot of money. He thought for a while until he heard Shishio's words.
"I have a villa in the Izu. If you want, do you want to stay there?" Shishio offered since he had a villa in the Izu, so it was obviously better for him to stay there.
"Okay, let's stay there."
Everyone agreed without hesitation, but they must admit this guy was too rich, right?
Nana, Maiko, and Mea somehow were curious about the villa and wondered what kind of villa it was.
Shishio just answered perfunctorily since it wouldn't be exciting if he told them.
Kiriya, on the other hand, decided to return to the teacher's class since he didn't see anything interesting, so he decided to leave since he had a lot of things to do.
"Now that you mention it, what have you been doing? You have been playing with your guitar and writing something for a while," Nanami asked curiously while leaning forward, looking at the paper in front of Shishio. As she leaned in, her breasts pressed against the table, causing them to loom out.
Shishio glanced at them and thought it was great that Kiriya and Usa weren't in the classroom. Still, he might have touched that D-cup many times, but they were great no matter what.
"I am thinking of making a song," Shishio said.
"Song? What for?" Miu asked curiously.
"For my manga with Mashiro." Shishio scratched a pencil on his temple.
"Is it ready?" Mai was also quite curious since she knew this guy was a good singer.
"Not yet."
"When will it be ready?" Nana asked.
"......." Shishio was lost for words, especially when he saw their eager expression. He let out a sigh and said, "Next week. It should be ready by next week." Hearing those words, everyone beamed into a smile and continued with their other conversation.
Frankly, Shishio could make the song right now and right away since there was only one suitable song for his manga and Shiina.
However, it would be weird if he did so, and frankly, he was too lazy to sing now. He just wanted to enjoy this quiet time, and also, his mood turned weird when he thought about this song. He was afraid to cry when he sang this song, considering how this song might break the dam he had created over his stay in this world.
Looking at the smiling face of his girlfriend, Shishio thought it was better to stop thinking and just enjoy his time with them.

On the next day, it was the day of the Service Club, Shishio came to the clubroom and suddenly saw Yukinoshita sleeping on her seat like a cat. While he was surprised, he quietly closed the door and draped his blazer on her shoulder, so she wouldn't get cold.
The summer might be close, but it was quite windy.
Shishio was afraid this girl would get careless and get sick.
"Hnmm~~!" Yukinoshita purred lightly and somehow clutched his blazer tightly while continuing to sleep.
"...."
Shishio looked at Yukinoshita for a moment and must admit this girl was cute. However, he didn't plan to tease her and just dragged his chair quietly near the window to see the people from above. Somehow, he was in a weird mood, but his little Shishio was still as healthy as ever.
Yukinoshita didn't know why. Her sleep became more comfortable, and she also smelled a warm smell which made her smile. However, she then woke up and realized she had slept. She blinked her eyes for a moment and saw a familiar blazer. She abruptly lifted her body, then saw the figure she often saw in her dream, sitting lazily on the chair while eating ice cream.
"........"
Yukinoshita pouted and asked, "When did you arrive?"
"Have you woken up?" Shishio turned and said, "It should have been 20 minutes ago? I walked out to buy an ice cream before coming back." He must admit, even if the mint chocolate ice cream tasted quite weird. It hooked him.
Yukinoshita somehow felt embarrassed when she thought about how her sleeping face was seen by Shishio.
"Do you want ice cream?" Shishio thought her expression turned weird because she wanted ice cream too.
"...next time, wake me up," Yukinoshita said with a pout.
"Yes, yes," Shishio said with a smile.
Yukinoshita looked at Shishio with a helpless sigh and wanted to scold him somehow.
However, the door was opened, and Hikigaya arrived.
"........"
"...Did I come at the wrong time?" Hikigaya asked.
