Chapter 7: Can I ask you a little favor?
Shishio hoped that he would meet someone that could trigger the system when he came to the convenience store, however, he didn’t expect that he would meet that person so soon.
Shishio knew that sometimes fate couldn’t be predicted, but then again, he decided to observe the girl that was capable of triggering his system.
This girl was a slim girl with short blue hair, bright magenta eyes, and a blank expression on her face.
If this girl didn’t ask him such a weird question, Shishio would think that this girl was quite anti-social.
However, even if this girl showed such a blank expression in front of him, Shishio had to admit that this girl was pretty cute.
“Is there something wrong?” Shishio asked. He was wondering why this girl suddenly came toward him and asked him such a strange question.
When Shishio observed the girl, the girl also observed Shishio.
The girl couldn’t see Shishio’s face clearly before since most of his features were covered by his long hair, however, when he turned toward her, she had to admit that this guy was very handsome.
In truth, she thought that Shishio would be over in the 20s when she saw her from behind, but it seemed that he was around her age when she saw his face.
Hearing Shishio’s question, she shook her head and said, “No, I was just wondering who dared enough to read a porn magazine right in the convenience store with a serious expression on his face.”
“….”
Shishio was speechless, but this girl wasn’t wrong since everyone would be curious if someone read a porn magazine with a serious expression on their face. He let out a sigh and said, “In truth, this is my first day in Tokyo.”
“Oh? Really?” She raised her eyebrow and seemed pretty surprised, however, her voice was so monotone, making Shishio wonder whether she was really interested. “Where did you come from?”
“I am from Kyoto.”
Shishio didn’t see any harm in telling me where he came from since he didn’t think this girl would do something weird, after knowing where he came from, and at the same time, he was also curious and wondered how this girl could trigger his system.
‘But… why is this girl so familiar?’
It was the same as Chihiro before, Shishio felt that he had seen both of them somewhere before.
Shishio thought for a while and glanced at the clock.
‘6.30 at night…’
It wasn’t that late and he thought that he might as well try to get to know the girl in front of him, however, he had a feeling that it might not be that easy.
“So there aren’t any porn magazines in Kyoto?”
Hearing the boy in front of her was coming from Kyoto, she became quite curious.
“….”
“No, in Kyoto, the convenience store also sells porn magazines.”
Even though he was quite speechless by the question, he still answered her since he could tell that she was pretty curious.
“So is there any difference between porn magazines in Tokyo and Kyoto?”
“….Why do you have to ask about porn magazines so much? If you want to buy the porn magazine you should buy it directly and shouldn’t you ask some normal question?”
Shishio was speechless and at the same time, he understood that this girl had a problem.
“Normal question? What kind?” The girl asked.
“Well, you can ask a question such as how are Tokyo and Kyoto different? Do you feel comfortable living in Tokyo? Or you can just say “welcome to Tokyo” to me?”
Shishio knew that this girl had a problem with communication and she was quite frank. He was sure that this girl didn’t have that many friends and could easily be misunderstood by a lot of people like what he mentioned before.
“I see..” The girl nodded and said, “Welcome to Tokyo.”
“…”
Her tone was so monotone and dry which made him wonder whether this girl really welcomed him.
“Yes, thank you very much.”
Even so, Shishio still needed to say thank you to this girl.
“How old are you?” The girl asked curiously.
“Well, I am 15 years old and I am about to become a freshman in high school,” Shishio answered truthfully since this girl had given him a good reward.
“Oh? You’re my underclassman!”
The girl was surprised when she heard that Shishio was younger than her.
“You’re older than me?” Shishio asked.
“Of course, do you think I am younger than you?” The girl raised her eyebrow and seemed to be annoyed.
“…”
“Of course not.” Shishio quickly shook his head since he knew that a woman or a girl was a very unreasonable creature.
However, those sentences weren’t without basis since Shishio was speechless and wanted to quickly escape after he heard her next question.
“So you’re a virgin?”
“….”
In an instant, Shishio understood that the women or girls that we’re able to trigger his quest would be very troublesome women or girls.
For example, his aunt, even though Chihiro was in her 30s, she hadn’t married and she was still single.
—
Chihiro sneezed and felt her nose was quite itchy, however, at this moment, she felt that she wanted to beat up someone.
—
Shishio didn’t think that it was wrong if someone didn’t want to get married, however, someone would think that there was a problem with those people even in truth, there was nothing wrong with them.
Shishio also didn’t think that there was a problem with his aunt and perhaps, she was waiting for him to become an adult before deciding to marry him.
Joke aside, Shishio was sure that the girl in front of him must have had a problem because of her standoffish personality.
“…Do I have to answer that question?” Shishio couldn’t help but frown since this girl’s question was really strange.
“So you don’t have any experience, right?” The girl said.
“How about you?” Shishio decided to ask back and didn’t answer her question immediately.
“Me? I don’t have any experience at all.”
The girl didn’t seem to be lying and she kept staring at Shishio, waiting for him to answer her question, however, before she was going to ask her question again…
“Is that so? But there’s nothing wrong with it, right? It is also good to preserve oneself for someone that you want to marry in the future,” Shishio said with a sincere tone.
Shishio knew that the females in this country were quite open, but he didn’t think too much since those females weren’t his family nor they were his girlfriends.
“….”
Hearing Shishio’s words, the girl seemed to be silent and thought about something.
Shishio stared at this girl for a while and said, “Then if you don’t have any more questions, I will go back first.” Even though he was grateful for this girl, he wanted to go back since he needed to prepare for his entrance exam tomorrow. He also wanted to open his reward since he was wondering how strong his body would become after his physical ability was doubled
However…
When Shishio was about to walk away, his wrist was grabbed.
“Wait.”
Once again, Shishio heard this monotone voice again which made him turn.
“Yes?”
Shishio was wondering what this girl wanted to do by stopping him so suddenly.
The girl stared at Shishio’s eyes and said, “Can I ask you a little favor?”
