Chapter 885 Idiots (1) When the train stopped at the station where Aoi and Ria’s house was nearby, I quickly got up and left. I didn’t inform them that I was going to pick them up but I at least sent them a message once I left the station.
Not a minute later, the two replied to me as though they'd been waiting for it for a long time.
“Finally, Dumb-senpai!”
“We thought you were not going to come, darling!”
Intrigued at that, I quickly opened a three-way video call and in less than five seconds, the two girls’ grin was the first thing I noticed. After that, the background.
They’re at the same place...
“Are you surprised, darling?” Aoi asked while sporting a smug expression. It’s like she’s saying, ‘Whatever you planned, we predicted it.’
And likewise, Ria raised her hand and made a peace sign before showing a charming smile, “Hurry and pick us up, Dumb-senpai. It’s cold out here.”
And with that, I hurried in my footsteps, dashing out of the train station to look for the place they were waiting.
They’re not at each other’s house but somewhere close by. A well-lit park.
Spring hasn’t passed yet so... the cold of the night was still chilling but the two... they’re both wearing light clothes.
Without turning off the video call, the two girls laughingly cheered at me as though I was in a race.
And when I arrived at the vicinity of the said park, Aoi and Ria raised their heads and waved at me from afar.
Without missing a beat, I quickened my steps and arrived in front of them in less time than it took for them to lower their hands.
“Why are you outside? And what’s this? You should’ve worn a scarf or a jacket. Your skins are cold.” I blurted out without pause as I rubbed their shoulders to warm them up.
But while I was doing that, the two girls giggled lovingly, “Look at him. I told you, he will be worried.”
“You’re the one who suggested this, Aoi. Fix that.”
Aoi hugged my head and pushed me down her chest while Ria produced a scarf that she wrapped around her neck before placing her lips on mine.
“Sorry for making you worry, Ruki...” Aoi then said in an apologetic tone as she started stroking my head. With Ria letting go of my lips, I got to look up and saw Aoi showing a saddened look. “Ria predicted that you’re going to pick us up today so... we planned to surprise you.”
“And you arrived half an hour later than my prediction...”
I see. These girls... I was the one going to surprise them but they turned the table on me. Furthermore, because I thought they would still be at their house, I took my time with the girls from my school and sent Chii home...
Thinking about it, no one’s to blame here because we both had the same intention... And they would surely be mad at me if I blamed myself.
“Then you should’ve worn thicker clothes... Furthermore...” As my voice trailed, I straightened my back and looked straight behind the two.
Right. This was the other reason I rushed out of the train station to reach this place.
From the darker side of the park, roughly six figures showed up. Although they look older than us, they’re in a school uniform but they’re worn irregularly and surely, it was against their school regulations...
“Huh?! What’s this? You two are sharing this guy? What the hell?! Are you guys seeing this?” The one in front who looked like the typical Delinquent A with piercings and long hair pointed at me.
“When they said they’re waiting for their boyfriend, I thought two wimpy guys will show up. But this is great too. Having two girlfriends… is this guy for real?!” The next one was a bald guy whose uniform sleeves were folded upwards to show his biceps. It’s big and looks like he’s working out.
“This is unforgivable. Even if he’s lying, someone like this guy cannot be allowed to have a beautiful girl like these two. Do you know? This place is our turf. See any couples hanging out? No, right?” And the next to say something looks like their leader. He had dyed hair, a confident posture with his hands hidden inside his pocket. He’s the one that looked like a proper student except for that dyed hair.
He started barking like an idiot as though he was trying to give me an infomercial about this place. “Oh. Right. These two are waiting near the station. We dragged them here. We’re going to show them that we’re more of a man than their boyfriends. That way, we’ll win their heart, right?”
I see. No wonder they’re waiting here. If I arrived a little earlier, this would probably not happen. Still, Aoi and Ria’s confidence in me is abnormally high. They most likely followed them without fear and were filled with confidence that I would be here to save them.
I did teach them self-defense but against these numbers, they’d just be caught and roughly treated if they resisted.
Hearing all that, Aoi clicked her tongue and muttered loudly. “Stupid idiots.”
Ria, on the other hand, shook her head before shrugging. “These kinds of people are always braindead, Aoi. They’re too ignorant.”
They then moved closer to each other and held hands, giving me space to move. From the pat they gave on my back, they’re telling me not to worry about them...
“What did you say?!” The long-haired guy shouted he took a huge step forward and was about to grab Aoi.
However, before he did that, I pulled the two behind me and slapped his arm away.
With the loud slapping sound that rang out, a pained grunt quickly followed.
Hearing that and seeing the long-haired guy stumble down while clutching his arm, the other five were startled.
“What the f*ck is that slap? Hey! Surround them and grab those girls!”
The leader-looking guy shouted and the other four quickly got into position.
Seeing that, I handed my bag to Aoi before giving them instructions. “Run outside the park when I said so.”
Ria and Aoi quickly nodded their heads as they hugged my bag tightly.
After scanning the four that were about to surround us, my eyes focused on the closer to the exit.
However, before running to him I dashed forward to the guy across from him, delivering a straight kick to his crotch. In a split second, I felt the toe cap of my shoes hitting a soft thing.
Before the guy could close his legs and cry out in pain for his crushed balls, I already turned around and threw a straight to the guy I marked earlier.
He dodged the straight because of how predictable it was but a right uppercut rose from below his chin. Ignoring the slight pain on my knuckle from hitting the sharp side of his chin, I shouted, “Now, go!”
As soon as my words left my mouth, Aoi and Ria made a dash outside of the park, leaving me behind.
“Argh! It cracked! What the fu--!” And it was only at this moment that the guy hit on his crotch cried out in pain.
“Hurry and catch them!” The leader shouted to the other two, including the bald guy. And after saying that, he focused his eyes on me and took a stance.
Judging from that stance, it’s not boxing but some sort of martial arts. Karate? I don’t know and I don’t care. He’s ready to attack me but... his focus was on the two girls.
“They’re right. You’re all idiots.” I said with a sigh as I quickly dashed back, blocking the two chasing after Aoi and Ria...
