I am that male friend in the harem story-Chapter 271: Sure, go ahead

'What should I do?'

Walking out of the guidance room, Tobe rubbed his temple, thinking he had messed up. He just tried to play around, pranking Hiratsuke, yet unexpectedly, she took his confession too seriously.

Yet, when he thought of Hiratsuka's shy, blushing face, he had to say she was cute.

Also, age was just a number, especially when, with all of his abilities within his body, he could make her younger.

Yes, his ability could also affect others by using his white juice, so as long as they consumed or had it inside them, they could become healthy, younger, and good-looking.

Still, his women were in high school, so they had no need to appear younger, but if Hiratsuka was his, the difference in age, or the worry that her charm would diminish as she grew older, she had no need to worry, since everything would be okay.

'Hmm... it should be okay.'

Well, let's see how it goes.

Tobe just confessed casually, but he knew well that the reality wasn't that easy. The love relationship between a teacher and a student wasn't so simple. Not on the student side, as they could express their feelings without worry, but the teacher wasn't so easy, as it was immoral in the eyes of the public, despite how sincere and genuine their feelings were.

Then again, Hiratsuka aside, could he say his feeling was sincere and genuine?

So, Tobe wasn't in a hurry, and he was thinking of doing it slowly.

Stretching his arms high, Tobe looked at the surrounding scenery, thinking that this place was quite different, especially when he could smell a salty scent from the nearby ocean. Unlike Tokyo or Takayama, which he had stayed in before, this time, his school was located near the sea, which was kind of nice, especially when he could see it from his location. It was clear and shimmering due to the light at noon.

Growl! 

Still, he felt a bit hungry, so he thought of getting something to eat at the cafeteria. At the same time, he also felt some people stared at him from time to time, especially those students who walked past him, the female ones, seemingly never realizing his charm, but his appearance grew better and better, his posture and body also the same.

He felt that he might need to change his uniform again, as he had in his life with Ishigami and Satoshi.

Nevertheless, in this life, he was too lazy to work hard and just did so-so, especially since in his life as Ishigami and Satoshi, he had worked so hard.

At the same time, he felt that he had no need to, especially when he could see that the origin of the heroines ' family in this life was just normal. Unlike the world of Kaguya or Hyouka, whose heroines came from an extraordinary background, the heroines in this world seemed to come from an ordinary family, so they had no need to work hard to show he was capable and could take care of their daughters.

'Well, if the heroine is Hiratsuka, it will be different.'

Hiratsuka was almost 30, of course, she would wish to have a man that she could rely on, and of course, whether he wanted to or not, he needed to have money, so he could take care of her.

'What's her qualification again? Ten million yen a year?'

As he thought so, he was about to arrive at the cafeteria, but he noticed a cute girl who seemed to be in trouble. Her hair was blonde, but it wasn't natural as it was bleached and styled similar to that of a gyaru, with a skirt that was lowered deliberately, which caused her long, slender legs to be exposed, and a school jacket that was tied on her waist, seemingly used to hide her cute buttocks from being exposed.

It wasn't his first time seeing girls dress gaudily like this, since it was the common attire of the high school student. Even Yumiko was dressing in such a way, but enough of that, since Tobe felt that this girl shouldn't be from the world of "My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, as I Expected," as he didn't remember her even existing.

However, it seemed the system registered her as the heroine, which confused him.

Which world?

'Well, it doesn't matter.'

Tobe felt that it wasn't necessary to think about those types of problems since it was all the time. After all, all he had to do was fall in love, date one of those heroines, and treasure them.

Still, while everyone else who saw her in trouble ignored her and walked away, Tobe looked around, then discovered a wallet on the corner that was hard to see. If it were someone else, they would hesitate, wondering whether this was a wallet that was sought by the girl, or calling her out might be mistaken as a creep instead.

People often overthink what others think about them, and in the end, they do nothing and feel regretful.

However, Tobe didn't care about that and just took the wallet and then came to the girl. "Excuse me, I am sorry if I am wrong, but is this your wallet?"

If he were wrong, he would just apologize.

The girl, who heard his voice, was startled, but quickly calmed down, and saw her wallet in his hand, which made her so happy and relieved at the same time. "Ah, yes, thank you very much!"

"Here." Tobe gave the wallet to the girl, who was somehow quite nervous, and rubbed her slender, soft hand against his, which made his body feel weird. This was a virgin body, he thought. "You should check inside in case something is missing." He didn't want to be mistaken for a thief since living as a good person in this country was hard.

Unlike the simple and gentle people in the countryside, the people in the city were quite sneaky and dirty.

The kindness that people gave was often treated as busybodies and annoyance; the bad ones even wanted to take advantage of the others, which showed how bad the situation in this country was, especially the big city, so people tended to avoid each other as they didn't want their lives to be destroyed by a single stain that would completely ruin their lives.

This also made him understand why most people tend to ignore each other when they are in the city.

"Ah, um."

The girl fumbled for a moment, clearly a bit nervous, but she did as he asked. She checked the inside of her wallet before she nodded, looked at Tobe, and said, "Nothing is missing."

"That's good, then." Giving off a soft expression, Tobe didn't intend to stay any longer. "Be careful next time. Don't lose it again."

"Ah, um..."

Watching him, who left toward the cafeteria, the girl hesitated, wondering whether her thanks would trouble him, but as she hesitated, a soft tap was felt on her shoulder.

"What's wrong, Saki?"

"Ah, well..."

But Tobe, who knew nothing about the worry of the girl, ordered a kitsune udon as he sat on the quiet seat, and had his first meal in this world as he watched the scenery of the window absentmindedly, enjoying his MSG filled soup until a soft tap on the table attracted his attention.

"Excuse us, can we sit at the same table as you?"

"..."

Blinking his eyes, Tobe saw two girls, one of whom was the one he had helped before, but he was unfamiliar with the other one.

'Her friend?'

Still, unlike the one that he helped before, who appeared rather awkward, the friend was pretty extroverted and chirpy, he thought.

Regardless, while he wasn't sure why they came and wanted to sit at the same table as him when many empty seats existed, he nodded. "Go ahead."

At the same time, he had to say that a delicious, sweet honey had no need to search for the bees that were attracted by it.
