CH 16

It was almost four o’clock in the afternoon when Touko-senpai and her best friend, Kazumi Kano, met up with us.

"How's it going?" I don't think Tetsuya has returned to his apartment yet."

That’s what Touko-senpai said as soon as she came in.

"Yes. Neither Kamokura-senpai or Karen have come to the apartment yet." "Is it possible that you missed it?"

It was Kazumi-san who said that.

"No, not that either. We parked the car in a place where we could see the entrance to the apartment, and we were both watching it." "Is that so? No, I was thinking of visiting the apartment in disguise, if there was any chance I might have missed it." "Don't worry, Kazumi-san. You don't have to go that far."

I replied with a wry smile.

"We'll take turns then. You guys can go take a break while I'm here." "Okay. I'll be back in two hours.

Ishida and I left the place once.

Two hours later, Ishida and I were back at Kamokura’s apartment where we could keep an eye on it.

Kazumi-san car was also a minivan with a spacious interior.

Once there, we all got into Kazumi-san car.

"Touko-senpai, Kazumi-san. You haven't eaten anything, have you? I bought you a hamburger and a drink."

I said that and presented the two of them with the bag of food I had bought.

"Oh, that's very thoughtful."

Kazumi-san then took the bag and handed it to Touko-senpai, who was in the passenger seat, taking out the contents.

"Have either of them returned to the apartment yet?"

I asked, and Kazumi-san answered.

Ishida said curiously.

"That's weird. I thought this would be a chance for the two of you to spend some time together. I was expecting them to head right back to the apartment and start screwing."

When Touko-senpai heard this, she denied it.

"It's a man's idea. It's normal for a woman to think, 'I want to go on a date like a lover sometimes, since it's a time when there are no interruptions. Since we can spend the whole night together."

Kazumi-san responds to that.

"I agree with Touko's idea. Men will want to go back to the room and have sex as soon as possible, but if they keep doing that, the women will think that they are not being cared for and their feelings will cool down. I don't think Kamokura, who is very experienced in handling women, would ignore that. "Is that how it is?

Ishida still looked doubtful, but I was fully convinced by their words.

Ishida still sounded doubtful, but for me, their words were convincing enough.

Kazumi-san was just finishing her meal.

"I need to fill up the car. And while I'm at it, I need to use the bathroom."

As she began to say.

Then Ishida said

"Sorry, me too.

"You could have gone earlier, couldn't you?"

I said in annoyance.

"Sorry. it just came on rather suddenly. Besides, you might as well go while you still can."

He replied embarrassedly.

Then Kazumi-san said.

"The timing is perfect. If the same car was parked in the same place, people in the vicinity would get suspicious. It's about time we moved. Touko-senpai and Isshiki, get in the one-box car and keep an eye on it. I and Ishida will take this car to fill the gas tank and restroom. "It can't be helped."

Touko-senpai said, gathering her luggage and trying to get off.

I followed her in a hurry.

When we got out of the car, we had to be careful not to bump into Kamokura and Karen.

As we stepped out of the car, Kazumi-san quietly started the minivan.

We hurried over to the minivan.

The window of the back seat of the minivan is covered with a black film to protect it from UV rays.

We sat down in the back seat so that we would not be seen from outside.

The sun had already set and it was already dark, so it was unlikely that anyone could see us from the outside, but just in case.

When it was just the two of us, somehow the conversation never came up.

As for me, there were so many things I really wanted to know, to ask, and to be heard.

I glanced sideways at Touko-senpai.

She didn’t seem to be paying any attention to me, and was carefully watching the streets around us.

Touko-senpai is a person who really has the power of concentration, or rather, she is a person who is single-minded about things.

Even now, she is probably concentrating on the goal of seizing the scene of the affair rather than the reality that her lover is having an affair.

That’s when I was vaguely thinking about it.

"They're here!"

Touko-senpai shouted quietly.
