Hayakawa's heart felt as if it had been struck by a giant battering ram. His once unbreakable Dao heart suffered an incredibly heavy blow, shattering with a sound. Instantly, a roar filled his entire mental world. The ancient glacier deep in the Arctic, which had stood for millennia, finally began to melt.
Ogata Rizu's voice was close to my ear, softly saying, "Hayakawa, do you know? According to scientific research, the distance between two people largely reflects their relationship..."
"If you generally maintain a distance of 3.7 meters, it means the two people are complete strangers..."
"A distance of 1.2 meters to 3.7 meters is the normal social distance."
"The distance between acquaintances or friends is between 0.45 meters and 1.2 meters. When the distance between two people is shortened to within 0.45 meters, it can be said that they are very close."
Ogata Rizu suddenly began to give Hayakawa a serious lecture, spouting a whole bunch of specific data about scientific principles, leaving Hayakawa speechless. Hayakawa's completely wavering resolve was barely steadied before he asked expressionlessly, "What do you mean by all this?"
"What I want to say is: When you and I first met at school, we didn't know each other, and the distance between us was definitely more than 3.7 meters; then the principal asked you to call me and Fumino, which caused you a lot of trouble, but in the principal's office, the distance between us was already 1.2 meters to 3.7 meters; after that, we moved into your house because of the monthly exams, and our relationship got better and better, and the distance finally came within 1.2 meters..."
Ogata's face lit up with a bright smile, like fireworks blooming in the summer night sky: "And now... after so much time, you and I are finally 0.45 meters apart. We have crossed the 3.25-meter distance and gone from strangers to being so close. Just thinking about this makes me very happy."
As she finished speaking, Ogata Riju's eyes shone with a mixture of nostalgia for the past and longing for the future. Hayakawa had never seen her like this before. Even if she suddenly grew to her ideal height, she probably wouldn't be as happy as she was now, showing such a smile.
"..."
A deafening roar filled his ears as glaciers collapsed. No matter how fortified a city may be, it will eventually be breached. Feeling the tremor in his heart, Hayakawa knew that this time there was no turning back.
From 3.7 meters to 0.45 meters, it's only a difference of 3.25 meters. A person with a large stride can cross it in an instant, but how difficult it is to cross such a short distance. Two people who can reach within 0.45 meters must have gone through a lot to become like this. So never complain if your partner is too clingy, because it is proof that they like you and a symbol of your relationship.
Entering within 0.45 meters of someone is like entering your own heart; from that moment on, the other person becomes a part of your life. At this moment, Hayakawa must also admit that Ogata Rizu, who is now within 0.45 meters of him, has also become an inseparable part of him.
and so…
"From the top or from the bottom?"
Hayakawa said expressionlessly.
"Up...no, let's go down!"
Ogata Rizu's expression immediately changed, her face flushed slightly but her expression was extremely serious. After thinking carefully for a moment, she gave her answer, and even gave her reasons: "It's inconvenient to touch it from above!"
"...If that's the case, then let's proceed with the next one."
The room fell silent for a moment, followed by a rustling sound, and then a soft gasp from the girl: "Ah..."
Hayakawa remained silent, focusing only on the movements of his hands.
Ogata Riyu raised her neck high like a swan, her chest heaving violently. She bit her lip tightly to keep herself from making a sound, but she couldn't take it for more than a minute and gasped, "Be...be gentle, you'll wake Fumino up."
"Ok."
Upon hearing this, Hayakawa loosened his grip a bit.
But I was already awake.
Behind him, Fumino Furuhashi stared blankly at the person in front of her.
Her eyes were lifeless, as if she had lost all will to live.
Doing something like this so early in the morning would wake anyone up!
Fumino Furuhashi screamed in shame and indignation. She had been dazed since the two had started talking, but immediately woke up after hearing Ogata say "I like you". She then listened to Ogata Rizu's theory of emotional distance in its entirety.
Unlike Hayakawa's reaction after hearing it, Furuhashi just wanted to sneer: Heh, what's the point of 3.7, 1.2, 0.45?
In your eyes, 0.45 meters doesn't count as being intimate, because you two are practically in negative distance right now, okay?! With Riko's super big breasts, if Hayakawa were to reach inside her clothes to touch them, her hand would definitely sink in. What else could this be but negative distance?!
I'm afraid this negative number will increase in the future.
Fumino Furuhashi stared expressionlessly at the two people in front of her, who were inseparable, thinking about how to break them up.
I can't just stand by and watch silently, can I? What's the difference between this guy and those incompetent "husbands" in erotic comics?
Whether it's watching Riko get bullied by Hayakawa, or watching Hayakawa bully Riko, it's like a punishment worthy of a husband's crime!
Absolutely not. I'd rather be a paramecium than a link in their play.
Ling+Yun! First release [A determined look flashed in Furuhashi Fumino's eyes, then she twitched her brow and casually coughed twice: "Ahem."]
After making that sound, the two of them must have realized they were about to wake up, and then they probably wouldn't do whatever they wanted anymore.
Fumino Furuhashi thought to herself, then coughed again.
however…
The rustling sounds continued, and the suppressed moans and groans of the science-loving girl didn't stop at all.
Fumino Furuhashi: "..."
Baka! These two guys are so focused they didn't even hear themselves!
"Well"
Fumino Furuhashi was momentarily overcome with passion, puffing out her cheeks like a hamster. However, she retained a sliver of rationality and did not actually jump up to separate the two. Instead, she extended a hand in the shape of a crab claw and silently placed it on Hayakawa's waist, her threat completely undisguised.
Hayakawa's body stiffened as if a pause button had been pressed, and his increasingly rampant bullying abruptly stopped. He then casually took it out of Ogata's collar.
"Why...why did it stop?"
Ogata Rizu had gotten used to it, but when she suddenly stopped, she felt a little lost and uncertain. She looked at Hayakawa with a dazed expression, and her blank tone revealed a hint of disappointment.
Chapter 599 Sawako Sekijo
"Uh...it's nothing." Hayakawa's face was stiff as if he had been hit with a brick. In an instant, he went from being a gentle young man to a cold and indifferent scoundrel. He silently got up and said a few words: "I should probably head out too."
There was nothing he could do; the little hand behind him was still pinching the soft flesh on his waist and hadn't let go. If he hadn't said that, Hayakawa had no doubt that the crab-claw-like hand would have torn a piece of flesh off him.
Hayakawa was speechless. He couldn't understand why Furuhashi, who usually struggled to open even a tight bottle cap with a small knife, suddenly displayed such strange strength when pinching him, as if he had transformed into a crab-like alien.
"Um…"
At that moment, Fumino Furuhashi also made a sound, stretching as if she had just woken up, which completely extinguished Risu Ogata's idea of continuing their intimacy.
"Ok."
Ogata Riju was somewhat reluctant to part with Hayakawa, but she still let go of him, then blushed and wiped the glistening tears from the corner of her mouth.
Hayakawa got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up, but the threatening gaze behind him, like a thorn in his back, did not disappear. It continued to scrutinize him in a sinister manner until breakfast time, and the two resentful eyes did not disappear.
Hayakawa thought to himself as he ate breakfast, "I have to get out of here as soon as possible."
After breakfast, Hayakawa and Ogata Riju went out together.
……
He dropped Ogata Rizu off near the shopping street and didn't continue to take her to breakfast. After all, the shopping street, especially the area near the udon noodle shop, was undoubtedly forbidden territory for him. At any time, some middle-aged man in his forties would come chasing him with a rolling pin, which was really scary.
"It's about time we went to the Nakano family."
Hayakawa glanced at Ogata Riju's retreating figure, and seeing that she had safely entered the street, he prepared to leave.
However, the next moment, his eyes were covered by shadows.
A bizarre, alien-like creature suddenly emerged from the alleyway next door, slammed him against the wall with a loud thud, and pinned him against the wall.
What is this?!
Hayakawa stared in shock at the humanoid creature in front of him, whose eyes were filled with fanaticism and whose expression was bizarre. It took him a long time to recognize the person.
With a neat ponytail and a thick white down jacket, she was tall and had a cool and serious expression. However, the look of crazy jealousy on her face made Hayakawa unable to recognize her at first. But after observing her carefully, Hayakawa remembered who she was.
Isn't this Sawako Sekijo, the fangirl of Rizu Ogata?
"what are you doing?"
Hayakawa frowned. The girl in front of him was both his classmate and a friend of Ogata Riju. He wouldn't just push her away, but being suddenly pinned against the wall would definitely make him look bad.
"Ogata Rizu... Ogata Rizu, she!"
Sawako Sekijo lowered her head, letting out strange panting breaths. Then she suddenly raised her head and shouted at the top of her lungs, "How did she get out of your house?!"
"..."
"Don't even think about arguing with me!"
The girl with the ponytail looked indignant and gestured wildly, saying, "I saw you and her coming out of the community together from the entrance, and then I saw you escort her all the way home. The evidence is irrefutable."
After saying that, she took out her flip phone from her pocket, opened the photo album and showed it to Hayakawa. Inside was a picture of herself holding Ogata Riju's hand as they left the entrance of their residential complex.
If this photo gets out of school, my relationship with Rizu Ogata will definitely be exposed.
Hayakawa stared at the photo in silence, thinking to himself, "No wonder I felt something was off all the way here, as if someone had been following me. So it was you!"
Thinking back to before the final exams a while ago, Ogata told me while we were studying in the library that there were always strange people at school who seemed to be following her. Fumino thought they were perverts and almost called the police.
Who is this stalker? It's so hard to guess!
Hayakawa stared blankly at the girl in front of him, lost in thought.
"That's all I have to say."
Seeing Hayakawa's silence, Sekijo Sagako put her phone away with satisfaction, pointed at Hayakawa and said, "Just as I suspected, you are dating Ogata Risu!"
Hayakawa nodded: "Yes, we're dating."
"They just admitted it like that?!"
Sawako Seki's eyes widened in surprise, seemingly not expecting Hayakawa to agree so calmly, followed by a sharp pang of heartache.
Rizu Ogata…why?! I'm your best friend, and you got a boyfriend—such an important thing—why didn't you tell me? I could have given you advice!
Sawako Sekijo suddenly felt weak all over, and sat down on the ground like a duck, her face streaked with miserable tears.
What's wrong with this person? Is she a fangirl of Rizu Ogata?
Hayakawa looked at the girl in front of him with a puzzled expression, and then guessed the truth in 0.01 seconds.
"can I go now?"
Hayakawa thought for a moment and then said that he was in a hurry to tutor the five idiots in the Nakano family.
"Wait!"
Upon hearing this, Guan Cheng Shahezi immediately changed his expression, stood up, and reached out to stop Hayakawa from leaving.
"What are you doing?" Hayakawa turned his head to look at her, only to see that the girl's face was flushed red, and she stammered for a long time without being able to speak.
"You...you, you!"
Sawako Sekijo stammered for a long time before blushing and asking in a soft voice, "How far have things progressed between you and Rizu Ogata?"
"..."
Do you really need to ask about something like this...? This is entirely a private matter between her and me.
Hayakawa fell into deep thought: Could it be that this Sakae Sekijo is actually a relative of Riju Ogata, which is why she is particularly interested in this matter? But that doesn't make sense. If even Riju Ogata's relatives know about my relationship with her, then there's no reason why Ogata's father wouldn't know. He'd probably be out here with a rolling pin by now.
"Why do you ask?"
Hayakawa glanced sideways at Sawako Sekijo and said, "That's not something you should be asking."
"Hmph, because I'm best friends with Rizu Ogata, I have to find out her current relationship status."
The girl from Guancheng patted her chest confidently: "It's my responsibility as her friend."
"...Friends?"
Hayakawa remained silent for a long time, staring expressionlessly at the proud-looking girl before him, before slowly saying, "You say you're friends... but why have I never heard your name mentioned by her?"
"Click"
Like a bolt from the blue, the girl with the ponytail was stunned into place, her pupils shrinking to their limit in disbelief: "How...how could this be?"
Chapter 600 The Fainting Girl
"Is it possible that your title of 'closest friend' is just something you unilaterally believe?"
Seeing that Guan Cheng was on the verge of collapse, Hayakawa once again revealed his unscrupulous nature, speaking slowly and deliberately from the side.
These words were like a finishing blow, almost killing the girl who already had very little health left. Her eyes rolled back, and the next second everything went black as she collapsed to the ground like a fallen jade pillar.
"Hello? Hello!"
Hayakawa was dumbfounded. He quickly squatted down and nudged her, only to see that the girl with the single ponytail had dim and lifeless eyes, and was muttering things like "Impossible, I don't believe it," before tilting her head as if she were drunk.
"..."
I didn't expect this guy to have such poor mental fortitude. One sentence made her almost faint. What am I going to do now?
If it were any other time, it would be simple. I could just drop her off at the hospital, pat myself on the back, and be done with it. But now I have to go to the Nakano family for tutoring. Going to the hospital now would make me late no matter how I calculate it.
Being late... Hayakawa has never been late before, not even when he was a child. He considers arriving ten minutes early for appointments a social rule, and he absolutely doesn't want to break that rule now.
But Hayakawa wasn't comfortable just leaving the girl there, or having her taken to an ambulance for emergency treatment. After all, she was drunk, and what if someone took advantage of her after she left? She was, after all, his classmate and friend Ogata, and Hayakawa couldn't do such a thing. Entrusting her to someone at a nearby shop was the same reason; Hayakawa didn't trust them.
