Anime: I Want Harem-Chapter 56
Chapter 56 - 56
Her body made creaking noises, like a robot. Utaha Kasumigaoka slowly twisted her neck joints, which felt as if they had rusted.
"Is there something amusing, Miss Ma-chi-da?"
Whether it was her imagination or not, Sonoko Machida felt that the girl's beautiful red eyes looked even more vivid than usual at this moment.
Slightly frightening.
However, she didn't voice her thoughts just yet, as she couldn't be certain.
So, she changed the subject.
"It's just that... it's the first time I've seen you make that kind of face, Shiyu-chan, so I was a bit surprised..."
"And you were so surprised that you laughed?"
Utaha Kasumigaoka's beautiful face suddenly became expressionless as she asked back.
Clearly, they had been criticizing the other person's companion together just a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye, she had defected, which made Miss Utaha's mood very bad.
"Ahahaha... I'm sorry."
Sonoko Machida apologized with a weak expression on her face.
In her daily work, she was quite a strong woman.
But knowing that she was in the wrong, facing the girl in front of her, she could only try to justify herself in this way.
Utaha wasn't the kind of woman to press her advantage relentlessly. After receiving Miss Machida's response, she prepared to let it go and continue her verbal battle with that annoying junior about the previous topic.
However, at this moment, the boy who had been watching the situation from the sidelines seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
"Does big sister need any help? If you want to see it, I can always get Senpai Kasumigaoka to make that kind of face again for you."
"Senpai wouldn't mind such a small matter, right?"
Kosuke said with a beaming smile, completely unconcerned.
His attitude of completely disregarding her, Utaha Kasumigaoka, truly enraged the girl once again.
"Among all the people I've met so far, you are the lowest, Kitahara Kosuke."
"That only shows that there's a problem with your social circle, Senpai. You haven't properly interacted with many people at all, have you!"
"Someone without friends like you, can you even have more than ten names in your contact list?"
Kitahara Kosuke said with a very pitying tone.
Although he didn't interact much with others at school, his contact list was full of rather friendly ladies, like the detective who had worked with him to deal with criminal suspects, the waitress at the coffee shop who made secret bread together, and also Miko, Koharu...
And many other quite good acquaintances.
So, facing a senior who didn't have any friends, Kitahara Kosuke felt extremely superior.
Of course, Utaha Kasumigaoka wouldn't allow the other person to insult her like this.
She took out her flip phone, held it with both hands, pressed the down button, and quickly showed it off.
"There are ten people, there are so many people in my contact list, look clearly!"
"Oh, adding up your uncle, aunt, and teachers, it really does exceed ten people, impressive, impressive"
Kitahara Kosuke looked at the few pitiful names that quickly scrolled to the bottom, and paused slightly.
"I underestimated you this time, my apologies, Kasumigaoka-senpai."
He bowed slightly to express his apology, but the senior always felt that this guy looked at her like she was a pitiful creature, and his apology was just perfunctory.
"..."
Utaha Kasumigaoka felt that she would probably never forget this guy's name in her life.
Kitahara Kosuke ignored the woman's small actions.
On the one hand, he felt his throat was a bit dry and didn't want to waste any more words on this woman.
On the other hand, looking at the other beautiful woman beside her wearing sexy black stockings.
Kitahara Kosuke suddenly had a new idea.
"Speaking of which, you are... Kasumigaoka-senpai's editor, right?"
"Hmm? That's right..."
Sonoko Machida looked at the senior beside her, not knowing if the girl had said it or if he had overheard it when she introduced herself to Kotonoha earlier.
She simply introduced herself again.
"I am Sonoko Machida, an editor at Undead Fantastic Bunko."
"Kitahara Kosuke, a first-year student at Private Toyonosaki Academy, nice to meet you."
With a completely different polite attitude than when facing the senior, Kosuke also briefly introduced himself to the woman.
Then, after thinking for a moment, he added.
"I said some strange things just now in the heat of the moment, sorry. Please pretend you didn't hear them."
He was referring to his harem declaration.
That was just something he blurted out in the heat of arguing with the senior, he had no interest in advertising himself to the whole world for no reason.
It was a little embarrassing.
"Although I completely disagree with your ideas, honestly, you're quite an interesting person."
Sonoko Machida was much more mature than the girl after all.
Because she had thought of something just now, this woman held a very high degree of favorability towards Kosuke at this moment.
It was even higher than towards Aki Tomoya.
Not dwelling on what had happened before, she lightly coughed twice to ease the awkwardness.
Then, she looked at Kosuke with a strange gaze for a while, and then at the girl beside him, and a strange guess vaguely arose in her heart.
"How about it? Would you like to become a novelist like Teacher Utako Kasumigaoka?"
Sonoko Machida suddenly said something that greatly surprised the senior.
"Why him? You saw his behavior just now, didn't you?"
Utaha Kasumigaoka looked at the other woman, forcing herself to remain calm, a hint of incomprehension in her eyes.
"What does it matter, Shiyu-chan? There aren't many people who can make you show that kind of face just now, you know."
Sonoko Machida answered the girl's question with a sweet smile.
"Just for such a ridiculous reason, you're going to invite him?"
Utaha Kasumigaoka, who had finally regained her composure, crossed her arms again, looking very displeased.
"How about it, Kosuke-kun? Do you want to become a writer?"
Sonoko Machida thought for a moment, then asked the tall boy in front of her, "No, as for light novels... honestly, I have considered it, but because I don't have much free time, I gave up."
Kitahara Kosuke shook his head.
His thoughts hadn't changed. Becoming a plagiarist, like going to a prestigious university, wasn't within his goals.
"Is that so... I thought Toyonosaki would have another high school light novelist like Shiyu-chan."
Hearing his answer, Sonoko Machida couldn't help but say with a regretful tone.
"Not enough time... even though he's a member of the going-home club, some people really dare to say that."
Utaha Kasumigaoka said very quickly, pretending to be casual.
Kitahara Kosuke, this first-year student, was clearly tall and popular with the school's sports clubs, but he had rejected all of them without exception, becoming a member of the going-home club.
This was information that Utaha Kasumigaoka had learned from chatting with that girl at the coffee shop last time.
You should know that due to the relaxed education policy, Toyonosaki's after-school dismissal time was very early.
Kitahara Kosuke didn't participate in any clubs, and their school didn't allow students to work part-time, so he naturally aroused suspicion.
But Kosuke ignored her and continued to converse with Sonoko Machida.
"Actually, although I can't write myself, I happen to have a friend who is preparing to write a light novel, Miss Machida."
