Chapter 107: If I Win, We Date

Ren Amamiya flashed a moment of astonishment before finally reacting.

"Then, it shouldn't be."

"Mm, that's right."

Sonoko Suzuki nodded in satisfaction.

"So, I want to make a bet with you."

"The bet is about whether I can get that diary."

"I bet I can."

"So, Ren is betting that I cannot."

Can it be like this?

Forced to choose 'cannot', Ren Amamiya felt his win rate was very low.

Through a certain understanding of the Diary Flow.

He knew that after the first wave of diaries was scattered, a second wave of spread would soon arrive.

After the heroine, the members getting diaries in the second wave might be important female supporting characters.

So, the probability of Sonoko Suzuki obtaining a diary was very high.

Choosing 'cannot' now was simply jumping into a pit.

But.

He raised his head to look at the slightly excited Sonoko Suzuki.

He found it a bit hard to break this girl's current moment of excitement.

It was a bit willful, but this willfulness was indeed hard to dislike.

"Then let's talk about the result of winning or losing."

Sonoko Suzuki slightly reined in her emotions.

"If I win, Ren, how about you go out with me?"

"Eh?"

Did the outcome of the bet directly affect the issue of dating?

Ren Amamiya truly didn't expect the topic to drift into dating while they were talking.

"Sonoko-san, I'm not very good at interacting with girls."

"What's there to be good or bad at?"

One sentence completely blocked Ren Amamiya's mouth.

"Who in this world is born good at interacting with girls?"

"Isn't it all experience accumulated bit by bit during interactions?"

Those words were indeed true.

No one is born possessing experience interacting with girls.

Who doesn't acquire experience bit by bit while interacting with girls?

But this made Ren Amamiya completely lose the chance to refute.

"If you think it's okay, dating is also fine."

"But Sonoko-san, I think you need to know that actually, in dating, girls are the ones who suffer the loss."

"I don't feel like I'm suffering a loss."

Sonoko Suzuki knew perfectly well that dating is something where girls suffer the loss?

However, that was the case when dating other boys.

"Also, I think if I date you, I might not necessarily suffer a loss."

"..."

Ren Amamiya indeed found it hard to refute those words.

Because he indeed wasn't very good at facing girls and didn't know how to date girls.

With him being like this, wanting to make a girl suffer a loss was indeed quite difficult.

And it was highly likely to be exactly as Sonoko Suzuki said.

He really wasn't easy to make a girl suffer a loss.

"How about it? How about it?"

Hands propping on the table, her whole body had already come to his front.

This face-to-face proximity startled Ren Amamiya.

"It's a very interesting bet, right?"

"If I win, I get the diary and gain a boyfriend."

"And Ren, you can get a girlfriend who is cute in appearance and has a good personality."

"You don't lose out."

This was simply being very impolite while promoting herself.

So, how much did Sonoko Suzuki actually hope to date him?

Clearly not for any so-called other purpose, just because she liked that he was handsome, so she wanted to date him?

This indeed made Ren Amamiya a bit confused.

He looked at Sonoko Suzuki with a slightly helpless expression.

"Sonoko-san, you are not so cheap that you need to promote yourself like this."

"You are very cute; whether it's your figure or your personality, actually neither is bad."

"The truth is, I said that because I'm really not good at interacting with girls."

"If you really want to make this bet, I can go along with it."

He thought about the wager for a moment, and it seemed he really had no reason to refuse.

Right now, the wager itself had been brought up entirely by Suzuki Sonoko on her own.

He really could take the bet.

Having gotten her answer, Suzuki Sonoko's face instantly broke into a smile.

She didn't really care whether it counted as chasing a guy.

When you meet someone who's right, someone you like, then don't hesitate—once you hesitate, what the final outcome will be is a whole different story.

Besides, Suzuki Sonoko dared to be certain that in the future there would surely be plenty of girls flocking around Amamiya.

If she didn't seize the initiative now, would she have to wait until some other girl had taught Amamiya everything before she jumped out?

Since she was going to jump out anyway, she might as well do it now.

"Then it's settled."

With a smile, she sat back down in her seat.

Checking the time again, it seemed the lunch hour had just about passed.

"Amamiya, we—"

When she looked up, Suzuki Sonoko noticed Amamiya's gaze had shifted.

She followed his line of sight and saw four elementary schoolers.

"Amamiya, do you know them?"

"Pay attention to the elementary schooler wearing his baseball cap backwards."

She focused her gaze on that elementary schooler, and then for some reason felt a faint sense of familiarity.

That trace of familiarity had her rummaging through her memory.

In the end, she locked onto one person.

"…He is… Kudo?"

"Good guess."

"It's really him!"

Having received an affirmative answer, Suzuki Sonoko immediately widened her eyes.

She hadn't expected to run into Kudo shrunk into a child here.

"Knock knock!"
