Crossover: I Took In a Runaway High School Girl

Hearing Renji's words, the girls were surprised. They felt it was true. Those who show kindness for no reason are either traitors or thieves. Kakeru Tobe, who was always stingy, suddenly became generous and invited his friends to watch a movie together. Even Renji, with whom he wasn't close, was invited. It was hard not to doubt his purpose.

"So, who does he like?" Miura Yumiko looked at the people around her in confusion.

"Could it be you, Yumiko?" Yuigahama Yui muttered.

"That's impossible. I know who likes me or not. Tobe doesn't have that kind of intention towards me, and he wouldn't dare." Miura Yumiko waved her hand and ruled herself out.

"I think it's you, Yui. You're actually very popular."

"Ah? Me? No way. I don't talk much with Tobe. At most, we're just normal friends because of you, Yumiko. I don't think he has feelings for me."

"Could it be Mahiru? After all, Mahiru is the most eye-catching!"

Shiina Mahiru also waved her hand firmly.

The girls pushed each other and distanced themselves from Kakeru Tobe, saying that they had no interest in him. Renji Kamisaka already felt sorry for Kakeru Tobe. If you want to pursue a girl, you have to be popular. If you are not liked by many girls, there is no hope.

But why do I want to laugh? I'm really bad.

"Renji, who do you think Tobe wants to pursue?" After a short discussion, the girls couldn't find an answer, so they threw the question at Renji.

"This is easy. We'll know tomorrow by looking at the seating arrangement. Whoever Tobe arranges to sit next to will be the girl he wants to pursue."

"We know that too. We don't want to wait until tomorrow. I want to ask for your opinion. Who do you think Tobe likes?" Miura Yumiko hugged his arm and asked for Renji's opinion.

Renji looked at Ebina Hime with a smile. "I think Hime should know."

Hearing this, the girls looked at Ebina Hime. Hime sighed and raised her hand to push her glasses up. "Such a thing doesn't matter. Anyway, let's just go to the movies together as friends tomorrow."

"Don't think about strange things."

Ebina Hime's words shocked the girls. Then they suddenly realized. It turned out that Renji thought Tobe liked Hime. And Hime seemed to have no interest in Kakeru Tobe at all.

Who would want a boyfriend who likes to dress up more than themselves, is a little flashy, a bit effeminate, and is noisy? If they met gangsters, Kakeru Tobe would probably hide behind his girlfriend.

Miura Yumiko poked Ebina Hime's cheek with a teasing look. "I know Hime is very sweet, so you should be quiet more often and not always talk about those weird topics!"

Ebina Hime laughed dryly. "But I just like BL, I can't change it."

As she spoke, she looked at Renji again and said jokingly, "Don't you think that when Renji and Tobe stand together, Renji is the top? Tobe looks like the bottom!"

Renji's face darkened. I really want to push Ebina Hime down and hit her little butt. What is she talking about! Miura Yumiko and Yuigahama Yui looked at each other and covered Ebina Hime's mouth tacitly. Hime was clearly very sweet. It was a shame she had a mouth that liked to talk about BL plots.

It was noon, and Renji was about to go to the Service Club. But Hayama Hayato stopped him. "Wait, Renji, can we talk for a bit?"

"Sure."

They went to a quiet place. Hayama Hayato's smile gradually disappeared. "Renji, you must have noticed something, right?"

Renji shrugged. "If you mean Tobe likes Ebina Hime, I can see that."

Hayama Hayato smiled bitterly. "Honestly, I don't think Tobe's relationship will work out."

"Of course, Tobe is a very good person and my friend. I certainly hope he can successfully pursue the girl he likes. It's just... Ebina... do you know what she's thinking?"

Renji rolled his eyes. "Since you think Tobe won't succeed, you must have the answer. Hime has no intention of dating Tobe. She's actually the same as Yumiko. She just wants to quietly maintain this atmosphere and this superficial friendship."

"Superficial friendship? That's too much," Hayama Hayato was a little dissatisfied. "My friendship with Yumiko and Tobe isn't superficial. I seriously treat them as friends!"

Renji nodded slightly without commenting. "I'm not denying your friendship. When I say superficial friendship, what I mean is a friendship that can never go any further."

"It's just a friendship between friends. We can chat together and maybe work together if there's a chance."

"Hayama, Hime is now the same as you and Yumiko were back then. She just wants to maintain the friendship of this small circle, not let it get worse because of someone's heartbreak."

"Maybe at the beginning, you didn't think of using Yumiko as a shield, but things have developed to this point. You're in a dilemma, aren't you?"

Hearing this, Hayama Hayato sighed. "Yes, I'm in a dilemma. I don't want to lose Yumiko's friendship, I don't want to lose her as a friend, but I can't accept her feelings, so I can only choose to act stupid."

"This is already a deception, and to maintain this atmosphere, I selfishly continue to deceive her and myself. To be honest, I don't have the courage to break the deadlock, and I don't want to risk losing a friend."

Renji shrugged. "Then what do you want to say, or what do you want me to do?"

Hayama Hayato looked at him deeply and pleaded. "Be kind to Yumiko. She's actually more prone to tears."

"I don't think I need you to teach me how to treat my girlfriend."

"Is she already your girlfriend?"

"Yeah, I'm not like you, who just stands still. I will move forward and take responsibility," Renji said calmly and teasingly. "Maybe, that's why Yukinoshita Haruno looks at me in a different way."

Hayama Hayato laughed foolishly. "Then I really need to study hard."

"You can't learn it, because you are a good person, Hayama Hayato." Hayama's cheeks flushed. "I really don't want to be a good person."

Because I have to take care of the people around me and take care of everyone's mood, it's really exhausting.

"Some things can't be ignored just because you want to, classmate Hayama, take care of yourself." Renji's cruel words made Hayama Hayato's mouth twitch.

"I thought you said I was a good person and would continue to encourage me."

Renji rolled his eyes. "You're thinking too much. I don't have a hobby of encouraging my love rivals. I'm glad I didn't hit you hard."

"You already hit me hard. Honestly, I feel bad seeing Yumiko get close to you now, but I have no right to interfere."

"All I can do is beg you not to hurt Yumiko."

"Anyway, you're so fickle." Hayama Hayato never understood what Renji was thinking.

He was clearly valued by Yukinoshita Haruno, but he still had an ambiguous relationship with so many girls. He even got Yumiko. Didn't Yukinoshita Haruno care? Or was Renji just a shield for Haruno? In fact, did Haruno not like Renji at all?
