After all of that, I can finally explain why I had called out Sei-chan.
I start the story with “Actually…” and tell her that Kaori Tojoin found out about Yuichi and Fujise’s date on Sunday.
“Oh yeah, that woman…”
From Sei-chan’s point of view, it seems that she doesn’t like Kaori Tojoin very much.
She is the one who interferes with her best friend’s love life, so I guess it’s justified as to why she doesn’t like her.
“Does this mean she’s going to interrupt their date?”
“Maybe… I mean, definitely.”
“Haah…The person you want the least to know about the date, knows about it. What were you doing?”
“I’m sorry. I didn’t expect her to ask about it.”
“Well, enough of the past. Anyways, you don’t want Tojoin-san to interfere with the date so you’re asking for my cooperation.”
“Well, according to Yuichi’s request. Yes.”
When I said that, Sei-chan fell silent, as if she was thinking about it for a moment.
“Of course, you have all the rights to refuse this request. You don’t need to cooperate with us for this.”
“No, I will cooperate. It’s for Shiho’s sake after all.”
“Eh? Really?”
“Aaah, Shiho is trying to muster the courage to confess her feelings. We can’t let anything get in her way during this time.”
As expected of her best friend. Sei-chan, Immediately decided to go and help them.
“But even if you say that we have to keep her out of their way, how are we going to do that? We’re dealing with the daughter of the Tojoin Group, remember?”
That’s right, I have no idea on how to stop her from interfering with their date.
The Tojoin Group is one of the top companies in this world, so she should be able to do various things in order to interfere with them.
Their total assets are said to be over one thousand trillion yen… I’m a high school student and even I don’t understand how much their wealth accumulates to.
Is there such a company in the previous world? Well, this is a manga world so what am I expecting.
At any rate, Kaori Tojoin is the daughter of a very wealthy family.
If that person really decides to get in their way, there’s probably nothing we can do about it.
She’ll probably be able to do anything with her abundant financial resources.
“What are you going to do to stop her? Do you have a plan?”
“Nope. If you try to think about it, it seems impossible, no?”
“Haah… I think this is difficult too, but I don’t want her to get in the way of Shiho’s plan.”
“Haah… No, wait.”
Ah… I forgot but the original story had this sort of development, right?
No, of course it did. It just didn’t develop into Tsukasa Hisamura and Sei Shimada talking about the situation in a cafe.
The story proceeds with Tojoin trying to interfere with the date.
If I try to interfere with the plan as it unfolds, I might be able to stop her from interrupting those two.
However, the situation’s different now. The story isn’t following the original timeline. Tojoin found out about the date before it even happened here.
In the original story, Tojo-in found out about the date on the day it occurred, so she had minimal preparation for interrupting the date.
This time, however, it’s more likely that she prepared to interfere with them in advance.
If this was following the original story it would’ve been impossible to stop it. But since the story’s following a different path, it’s possible this time around.
“Somehow, I think I can understand why Tojoin is getting in the way.”
“Are you sure? What’s your reasoning?”
“Not much, but if I had to guess, I’d say it’s Tojoin’s personality.”
Even in the original story, Tsukasa Hisamura and Kaori Tojoin were somewhat close.
Tsukasa Hisamura did not interfere with Yuuichi and Tojoin’s relationship, but rather supported it instead.
Well, it was mostly just teasing and not anything substantial.
That’s why I feel like I’m a little close to Tojoin. I think I might know a lot more about her personality than the original.
Well, in this case, it’s not because I know the character very well, but because I know the original story very well.
“Yeah, but it’s better than taking no action at all. What are you going to do?”
Sei-chan manages to ask a question while drinking her Francino.
“Anyways. First of all, the day before the date, that is, Saturday night. I’ll invite Yuuichi over to my house.”
“Hah? What do you mean?”
“Tojoin-san might be watching Yuuichi’s house on Sunday morning. That’s why Yuuichi should go on his date from my place instead.”
In fact, Tojoin was in front of Yuuichi’s house on the day of the date originally, even though she didn’t know anything about it.
She probably came to ask him out normally. But since Yuuichi had a date, he sent Tojoin-san away.
As Yuuichi hurriedly sent her away, Tojoin-san got curious and followed Yuuichi silently so that he wouldn’t notice her, and then she saw the scene of the date.
So first of all, there’s a high possibility that Tojoin will be in front of Yuichi’s house this time.
“I see. So should Shiho head over from my place too?”
“No, I think we’re probably okay there. I don’t think Tojoin-san knows who Yuichi is going on a date with in the first place. In fact, she may not even know that it’s a date yet.”
“Is that so…?”
“Tojoin-san’s probably thinking that ‘There is something Yuuichi can’t tell me on Sunday’, so I think she’ll only know it’s a date when she sees Yuuichi and Fujise alone together.
Maybe she doesn’t know that Yuuichi and Fujise are going on a date yet.
But I’m sure she’s going to interfere with it on the day of the date.
“Hm? So she doesn’t know where the date’s going to happen?”
“Ah, yeah, she probably doesn’t know about it.”
“So if Tojoin can’t track down Shigemoto, isn’t that the end of it? I’m sure Tojoin won’t know the location of the date either.”
“Ah… That’s certainly the case.”
In the original story, Yuuichi was being tracked by Tojoin. So she found out that he was going on a date and decided to interrupt him while chasing him around.
But this time around, Tojoin doesn’t know where he’ll be headed towards.
So if I can get Yuichi to the place of the date without Tojoin finding out, then I’ve basically won.
“Hmm, so it looks like I won’t have much to do for this.”
“That’s probably the case. I’m sorry for wasting your time today.”
“No, It’s fine. If I can save Shiho’s date from being ruined, it’s a small price to pay.”
She’s too cool.
She’s too manly and handsome, I’m in love with you. Ah, I’m already smitten with you.
“You’re really sweet huh.”
“N-No, this is nothing. This much is normal to do.”
“Haha, as expected of Sei-chan.”
As soon as I complimented her, Sei-chan’s face flushed red.
She probably isn’t used to receiving so many compliments.
I want her to stay this way forever. She’s so cute whenever she’s like this.
After that, Sei-chan and I had a light chat and left the cafe.
It was a light chat for us, but it was probably about 30 minutes of being alone together in the cafe.
It was a time that made me extremely happy… it’s the best.
There was no end to the topics we talked about. We talked about school, Yuichi and Fujise.
We left the cafe and walked back home together, talking with each other again.
“Oh, you have an elder brother, Sei-chan?”
“Yes. He lives alone and is a functioning member of society, so he’s not home anymore.”
I’d never heard of this before.
This is another piece of information that’s not in the original story.
I wonder if Sei-chan had an older brother in the original story?
Ah… so that’s why
“So that’s why you liked shonen manga and anime…”
“What!? How do you know about that?”
“Eh? Ah…”
Yeah, She didn’t tell this piece of information to Tsukasa Hisamura now, did she?
In the original story, Sei was researching Yuuichi for Fujise. And in the process of them getting to know each other better, she told him about this fact.
The reason why Sei likes shonen manga and such is probably because of her older brother’s influence.
“Well, Yuuichi told me about it.”
“Tha-That guy, I told him to keep it to himself”
Sorry Yuuichi.
I didn’t hear it from him, of course. But I can’t tell her that I heard about it from a manga now, can I?
“It’s nothing to be ashamed of, right? I like shounen manga too.”
“Yo-You do? Well It doesn’t suit a woman like me to like shounen manga.”
“I don’t think gender has anything to do with your taste in manga.”
I really do think that.
I don’t read a lot of shoujo manga, but I’m sure there are plenty of guys who read shoujo manga, and I don’t think that’s creepy at all.
Everyone has their own hobbies.
“And I’d be very happy to talk about shounen manga with you, Sei-chan.”
“I-Is that so, I’m glad then…”
She blushed shyly and turned her head away.
I don’t think it matters if it looks good or not, but I think it’s cute that she’s a little concerned about it, and it made my cheeks soften.
“Hey! You’re laughing at me.”
“Sorry, but I’m not laughing because it doesn’t suit you, I’m laughing because I think you’re cute.”
“Ku… That’s the same thing as making fun of me!”
Sei-chan and I talked about such fun things as we were walking home…
After all of that, I can finally explain why I had called out Sei-chan.
I start the story with “Actually…” and tell her that Kaori Tojoin found out about Yuichi and Fujise’s date on Sunday.
“Oh yeah, that woman…”
