Chapter 58: Let's Get to Know Each Other

~5 min read 957 words

Ren Amamiya, sitting at the back of the classroom, paused slightly as he watched the two new students who had suddenly become transfer students.

"Kaguya Sigong... Ai Hayasaka..."

"I didn't expect them to be the first to jump out."

He had guessed that the person holding the diary would appear next.

But the way they appeared was simply by transferring schools directly?

That is far too direct.

Ren Amamiya had always thought that those holding the diary would make some tentative contact with him.

This situation does not look like tentative contact at all.

This is already a head-on collision.

He is not quite sure what kind of operation this is.

After all, no one is so foolish as to need to poke holes in their own identity to test the rules of the diary.

"So, is the rule of the diary holder different from mine?"

It seems that is the only explanation available now.

Even if the holder's rules are different, why would it be Kaguya Sigong?

He remembers that Kaguya Sigong should be a canary kept in a cage by the Sigong family.

If she were just a tentative probe during weekend leisure time, then Ren Amamiya could completely understand.

Kaguya Sigong's tentative probe is truly normal.

But transferring schools so openly is very unusual; could the Sigong family agree to such a request?

Although it is a memory from sixteen years ago, he vaguely remembers that Kaguya Sigong actually did not have that much freedom.

So what is the situation now?

Ununderstandable.

However, it does not hinder his observation.

The newly arrived transfer students are still very attractive.

See, as soon as class ended, Kaguya Sigong and Ai Hayasaka were already surrounded by the girls.

Kaguya Sigong's face was a bit cold, but her demeanor as a well-bred Young Lady made the girls in the same class understand.

There was no fault to be found in her etiquette; it was just that she always maintained a certain distance when speaking.

It gave more of a feeling of "only to be admired from afar."

Ai Hayasaka, on the other hand, was more lively and quickly established connections with the girls in the class.

"Hayasaka-san, do you know Sigong-san?"

Sure enough, someone was curious about this question.

"Me? Actually, I am the Young Lady Kaguya's maid."

"Maid!?"

The sudden "maid" stunned both the boys and girls in the entire class.

The boys and girls around all turned to look at Kaguya Sigong, who was sitting by the window; earlier it was just a guess, but now that even a maid has appeared, it is an admission.

"Sigong gives off the feeling of a Young Lady, that cold temperament, and the distance she always maintains with people."

"Actually, Young Lady Kaguya doesn't want to maintain this distance; it is just that her past education has always been like this."

"The education at home has always been quite strict, which is why Young Lady Kaguya always maintains a distance from anyone she is not familiar with."

"It can also be considered Young Lady Kaguya's habitual self-protection."

"I see."

Ai Hayasaka's explanation made everyone understand what was going on.

Kaguya Sigong must be a genuine Young Lady in a shell, having received crisis education regarding the outside world since childhood.

Maintaining a cold attitude toward anyone indicates that this is not a deliberate targeting, but treating everyone equally.

If others had this flaw, it would be "Young Lady Disease."

But if a real Young Lady has this flaw, it is "crisis education."

The same problem presents differently when placed on different people.

The former belongs to having temper but no life; the latter belongs to having life and temper.

"Young Lady Kaguya has grown up in a world of deception since childhood; she has always been raised as a canary."

"Plus, Young Lady Kaguya received that kind of education from a great family since childhood, so she Nanmian Society does not understand human hearts."

"Also because of this reason, Young Lady Kaguya always produces some "misunderstandings" when interacting with people."

Ai Hayasaka's patch made the boys and girls around understand.

And everyone expressed that they could understand.

After all, as a Young Lady from a great family, there are definitely some differences from ordinary people.

Moreover, Kaguya Sigong's image perfectly matches everyone's general impression of a Young Lady.

A Young Lady who knows and understands etiquette, whose cold demeanor makes her feel hard to approach, just like an unapproachable high-mountain flower.

Plus, with the education from home, calling her a "girl in a shell" is not an exaggeration.

"She didn't hide her identity as a maid; she directly exposed her identity as a maid?"

"A lot of things have happened to this maid as well."

Ren Amamiya quietly captured that information.

"However, in this situation, it seems she will not come to contact me proactively."

"Hmm, hold back a bit."

After tidying up, he silently walked out of the classroom without anyone noticing.

What he most wanted to confirm right now was the situation of Mao Li Lan and Suzuki Sonoko.

"Bang!"

The sudden impact made Ren Amamiya stumble directly, colliding with someone rushing in from outside.

Ren Amamiya, who had worked part-time for years, had a fairly sturdy body, and he felt nothing.

However, the person who had rushed into him in haste was not so lucky.

"Ah!"

Because the person was not heavy, they were more easily knocked flying in one direction upon collision.

Ren Amamiya's speed just now was not fast, but the speed of the person crashing into him was not slow at all.

Looking at the girl who had landed on her bottom on the floor.

"Suzuki Sonoko?"

"Was she attracted by Kaguya Sigong?"
