Chapter 101 Was this also part of your calculations?
Hayasaka Ai: "Proposal rejected! I believe Yukinoshita-kun."
Fujiwara Chika: "I believe it too."
Chitanda Eru nodded. "No need to look anymore."
Yukino Yukinoshita gave Uchiha Ryo a victorious smile.
"Fine, so you're all in cahoots, huh...?" Uchiha Ryo was helpless. He couldn't very well lift the lid and look for himself, could he?
The next round begins with another fierce battle, and once again it is Hayasaka Ai's powerful attack that sends Yukinoshita away.
"Sorry, Yukinoshita-san, but this time I'm going to ask a rather difficult question."
Yukino nodded. "Ask away."
Hayasaka Ai narrowed her eyes: "May I ask, Yukinoshita-san, which male student at the same school do you have the strongest feelings for?"
Fujiwara Chika's eyes lit up. This is it! This is the real, tense, and exciting truth-telling.
Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."
Hayasaka Ai chuckled, "I'm just curious too. Does the school's unattainable beauty have anyone she cares about right now? And you can't lie, okay? If you do, we'll have to find out for ourselves."
Uchiha Ryo looked over here, then used the system to check Yukino Yukinoshita's current status. Of course, he also checked the other three people's status.
[Romantic option name: Yukino Yukinoshita]
[Current Yukino Yukinoshita's affection level: 38 (Slight affection, mild admiration)]
[Romantic Character Name: Chitanda Eru]
[Current Chitanda Eru's affection level: 36 (Slightly fond of you, considers you a very good friend)]
[Romantic option name: Fujiwara Chika]
[Current affection level with Fujiwara Chika: 30 (She considers you a friend)]
[Romantic Element Name: Hayasaka Ai]
[Currently, Hayasaka Ai's affection level is 62 (Admiration, strong sense of dependence)]
Apart from Hayasaka Ai, the progress is only 30%... It seems that it will be difficult to keep up with them. Moreover, I am currently in Toyonosaki, so I won't have much contact with them for the time being.
Yukino: "Sorry, I can't answer the question about the opposite sex I like the most at school."
Fujiwara Chika: "Then I'm out, Yukinoshita-kun!"
Yukino Yukinoshita nodded, then put down her racket and looked at Rin Uchiha, signaling him to come up.
Hayasaka Ai looked at Yukinoshita with a slightly apologetic expression, but Yukinoshita just smiled and didn't say anything.
Yukinoshita thought it was just a game, and losing was nobody's fault but her own. But Hayasaka Ai was thinking much more...
As an intelligent woman, she quickly figured out why Yukinoshita had refused to answer the question. There were essentially three possibilities...
Firstly, she genuinely doesn't have any male friends she's attracted to, so she truly can't answer that question.
Secondly, she doesn't trust the people present and doesn't intend to reveal her true feelings to the person in her heart.
Thirdly, there's shyness and embarrassment; maybe that person is right there on the field...
Hayasaka Ai hoped it would be the first option... but when Uchiha Ryo reversed the racket, her expression became increasingly serious.
"Fujiwara-kun, for the same question later, we'll target Uchiha-kun!"
Fujiwara Chika nodded. "Yeah! Let's go all out against him! Chitanda-san, remember to give him some inside help."
Chitanda Eru smiled but did not answer.
Uchiha Ryo: "Could you two keep your whispers down? You're blatantly targeting me and trying to turn my teammates against me, aren't you?!"
The battle begins! Even with the pool paddle reversed, Uchiha Ryo was able to keep up with his opponent.
As the game progressed, Uchiha Rin noticed something was wrong, because Chitanda was standing right there, not moving an inch, and not throwing a single ball at her.
Good grief, so now I'm fighting two against one! But...
"Your strength is nothing special; I'm using a ball handle, you know!"
Verbal taunts, coupled with their imperfect teamwork, led to a mistake by Fujiwara Chika, causing the ball to fly out of bounds.
Fujiwara Chika: "Ask away! Ask whatever you want!"
Uchiha Ryo stroked his chin. "May I ask a question that has nothing to do with the person in question?"
Fujiwara Chika pouted, "No, it has to be related to the person or thing, or someone or something they've clearly come into contact with."
Uchiha Ryo nodded. "Excuse me! What is the fiftieth digit of pi after the decimal point?"
"Eh!!"
Fujiwara Chika stood there, stunned.
"Wait! Wait a minute! This isn't a question that concerns me at all."
Uchiha Ryo smiled and said, "I remember that Class A and Class B have the same math teacher, right? When he mentioned π last time, he probably didn't forget to brag about how he could recite the first 300 digits of pi."
Chika Fujiwara broke out in a cold sweat. She remembered that the math teacher had indeed shown off this skill during class and had even recited the first hundred digits to the students on the spot.
Damn it... but I can check your phone, you stupid Uchiha Ryo, your plan is doomed to fail!
Fujiwara Chika reached for her bag... It wasn't there! Because everyone was playing pool, items like phones, keys, and wallets that easily fall out of pockets were placed on an empty table to the side.
Just now it was Uchiha Ryo who was guarding the items, but now it's Yukinoshita sitting over there.
Uchiha Ryo shook his head. "Your next sentence is, 'Let Yukinoshita help you investigate,' right?"
Fujiwara Chika: "Yukinoshita-kun! Help me look this up..."
Yukino Yukinoshita: "A cell phone... isn't here?"
Fujiwara Chika looked at Uchiha Ryo in horror, while Ryo pulled out a bag from under the pool table, inside which were five cell phones.
When he first arrived, Uchiha Ryo had already figured out what questions he should ask to effectively kick the other person out of the game, so he put his phone away beforehand.
Fujiwara Chika instinctively took a step back. "Was this also part of your plan, Uchiha-kun?!"
"Pi...I...I can't answer that!"
Fujiwara Chika gave up thinking.
Although Hayasaka Ai didn't know either, she still nudged Fujiwara Chika's shoulder and said, "Just guess from zero to nine, what if you get it right?"
Uchiha Ryo: "Eh, she's already given up. Go stay over there."
Fujiwara Chika walked helplessly toward Yukinoshita, while over at the pool table, Uchiha Ryo smiled and pointed at Hayasaka Ai.
"I've already taken care of Fujiwara Chika, so Chitanda, you can go to the other side. Haha, it's no big deal for me to take on two at once..."
"You're next, Hayasaka Ai!"
Hayasaka Ai: "Damn it... Chitanda, come here, we have to teach this arrogant guy a lesson."
Uchiha Ryo: "Oh? You're not willing to admit defeat, are you? You don't want to just give up and instead want to continue fighting me?"
"To make it so that you and Fujiwara could take on one of the two of you, Chitanda was clearly just slacking off, like a student who had already finished all the questions but still had a little over half the exam time left, just sitting there doing nothing."
Hayasaka Ai took a deep breath. "We won't give up so easily! You want us all to be maids? No way!"
Uchiha Ryo: "Hehe...then let the battle rage on!"
