Social phobia and lonely rock!

"This is a goodbye kiss from a pervert, so I'm going now."

Ishikawa Hayabusa expressed his feelings to his family with his usual frankness, then grabbed his bag and prepared to leave the house.

"Wait, brother."

Hibiki trotted over in slippers and took out a piece of paper. From the looks of it, it was the same one Ishikawa Hayabusa had given him earlier.

"I found a dessert shop that will pay me after school."

She handed the note to Ishikawa Hayabusa.

Ishikawa Hayabusa looked at his sister clenching her fists in silence and knew he wouldn't get away with this.

He took out his wallet and checked the amount inside, then swallowed hard and stuffed the note inside with tears in his eyes.

Let me reiterate that he's the most unsuccessful time traveler. He even has to calculate the time to take his sister out to eat.

"I have to go to the band today. Let's spend the weekend."

Hibiki saw her brother rummaging through his wallet, she remembered he'd spent all his savings on musical instruments. Her expectations were immediately dashed, and she reached out.

"Forget it, give it back to me."

"No, there's no regret in choosing over a pervert. When do you plan on going?"

Ishikawa Hayabusa didn't care at all about his small wallet and said righteously.

As a pervert, there is no way to back down!

Hibiki raised his tone and said lightly, "Then tomorrow~"

"Okay."

Ishikawa Hayabusa made a gesture and elegantly left the house.

...

Walking towards the main road near the school, Ishikawa Hayabusa casually looked around, searching for an extremely eye-catching pink figure.

As a person with social anxiety, he truly dares to do something different from others. This is also what he finds appealing about Goto Hitori.

It's worth mentioning that this girl is very clumsy. She wants to change, but can't find the key, or she goes too far and becomes increasingly closed off.

Very provocative value.

This pervert thought so.

And today he was very lucky, he managed to spot a particularly striking pink one in the crowd of people in beige school uniforms.

Today is your lucky day.

Ishikawa Hayabusa did not call out to her directly, but quickened his pace and approached Goto Hitori, speaking only when he was close.

"Goto-san."

When she heard someone calling her surname, Goto Hitori didn't realize it was for her.

Her first reaction was to look around curiously to see the person with the same last name as her.

However, when she secretly turned her head, she saw a cheerful, handsome young man behind her, who left a deep impression on her. He watched her with the curious eyes of someone observing a small animal.

Ah ah ah ah ah!!!

Goto Hitori was startled and let out a silent scream, his entire body trembling as if stretched out, covering his face with his hands.

After a moment, she came to her senses and, paying no attention to the students coming and going around her, lowered her head and apologized desperately.

"Sorry, sorry! I didn't realize. I'm really sorry!"

Well... if it were someone else being apologized so exaggeratedly on the street, especially in a place with so many people, it would probably be a little embarrassing.

But who is our protagonist?

Ishikawa Hayabusa!

Not to mention that he is at this level, he can even follow samba here.

"all good."

He waved his hand to indicate that everything was okay and said with a smile:

"Let's go to school together."

"Oh yes."

The words came out of Goto Hitori's mouth on their own, before they even passed through his brain.

When she realized it, she was already walking to school with a man she had met yesterday.

She cast a secret glance at Ishikawa Hayabusa beside her. His handsome, yet not fragile, face shone in the sunlight. He carried his backpack in one hand, unconcerned with its weight, and his pace seemed to slow to match hers.

It's a human! It's very close!

After realizing this, she blinked blankly, the expression in her pupils disappeared, and her thoughts quickly fell into the depths of consciousness.

When Ishikawa Hayabusa accompanied Goto Hitori to school, they did not speak to each other, or rather, they did not have the opportunity to speak to each other.

why...

He looked with interest at Goto Hitori, who was walking beside him, and said "Ah...Ah...Ah..." like a zombie with a bad expression on his face.

He finally understood why such a beautiful, fair-skinned girl didn't have a boyfriend.

Not to mention his characteristic of avoiding people without saying a word, this appearance alone is enough for him to use as a stupid emoticon.

When he reached the entrance to the teaching building's corridor, Ishikawa Hayabusa stopped.

Zombie Goto Hitori took two more steps before suddenly regaining his senses and stopping.

"Well, we'll part ways now. I hope everyone has a happy day."

Ishikawa Hayabusa smiled softly and walked towards his classroom.

He wasn't in a rush to build a good relationship with Goto Ichiri. Communicating with socially anxious people requires patience, like navigating a maze. Besides, he only contacted Goto Hitori because he was interesting.

"Ah, thank you."

Looking at Ishikawa Hayabusa turning around and leaving, Goto Hitori's bright eyes were filled with confusion.

Why would you contact someone like her?

He's so handsome and seems gentle and elegant. He's in a completely different class from people like her.

Even for the band, there are more options.

Goto Hitori, with a conflicted expression, began to use his imagination.

Hmm, is he challenging himself? Is he being threatened by the gang?

Is he an actor paid by his father?

Totally unexpected...

Just keep a little distance.

Goto Hitori thought this and turned and walked towards his classroom.

However, as soon as she turned around, her beautiful face, which still showed a hint of worry, suddenly melted.

"No, no, no..."

"Hehe... my friends who studied together... today is a good day... hehe."

Although she didn't remember having company and had decided to keep a safe distance, it didn't dampen her joy in the slightest. She entered the classroom with a voice that startled the students passing by.

Ishikawa Hayabusa opened the classroom door.

The students who were talking loudly inadvertently looked over and saw Ishikawa Hayabusa coming, and they lowered their voices greatly.

Some people made expressions of disgust, as if to say that it was because of you that they couldn't have fun.

The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly became much colder.

But Ishikawa Hayabusa walked to his seat as if he saw nothing, took out a book from his bag, and with a refreshing smile, sat cross-legged and read the book slowly.

The strange atmosphere was ignored for a few seconds and then dissipated on its own.

But Ishikawa Hayabusa's actions made some people even more unhappy.

"Ah, ha~"

Not long after, Kita Ikuyo also opened the classroom door and greeted her classmates with a radiant smile.

She seemed a little listless today, but her smile was even brighter. Behind her, she carried a white and orange bag containing a musical instrument.

Ishikawa Hayabusa lifted his head from his book, took a look, and then looked away.

Oh~ You're really a social expert, you're so proactive.

But he's nowhere near as good as he is. Social terrorists can join the band without any instruments! They might even ask the band to pay for the instruments.

Noticing Ishikawa Hayabusa's glance, Kita Ikuyo's expression became a little serious. She stared at Ishikawa Hayabusa with a look that seemed to challenge him.

But that expression was fleeting, and except for Ishikawa Hayabusa, who was being glared at, everyone else felt that Kita Ikuyo had put away her smile for a while.

Kita Ikuyo greeted her friends, and to their surprise, she disguised herself as a guitarist who had learned to play the guitar a long time ago but had never revealed her true identity.

Humph, although I don't know what Ishikawa's true level is, he definitely didn't receive Senior Ryo's recognition because he didn't participate in the street performance.

And I'm not only a keyboard player, but I also have the amazing ability to never stop practicing for 6 years, regardless of wind or rain.

Kita Ikuyo already dreams of surpassing Senior Ryo in her race to capture him.

However, she had forgotten that she had touched the guitar the day before, and whether it was even a guitar was another matter.

Social experts have such excellent linguistic skills that they can even fool themselves.
