It was said the most stable shape was a triangle, so when Ishigami became the lead and Shirogane and Kaguya followed him, everythi clear, but when Chika entered, everything was in chaos.

  The square was nice, but this square was untrolble, and no one knew what kind of effect this one point would have ohree.

  Yet, like a true hero, Ishigami didn't hesitate. He stepped forward bravely, ready to face the chaotic element that threateo disrupt their stability, all to protect his two seniors.

  At that moment, Shirogane and Kaguya wao cry, as they could see Isahigami's determination to sacrifice himself for the two.

  While Ishigami faced Chika, he didn't fet the two.

  Feeling his eyes on them, Shirogane and Kaguya nodded, knowing what to do, so when Chika's attention was on Ishigami, the two slipped away directly a out from the student cil room.

  Still—

  "Sh-Shinomiya!"

  "Ye-Yes, Kaichou!"

  "S-See you this weekend..."

  "Y-Yes!"

  The two blushed as they anticipated their date this weekend.

  Oh, wrong, they just wao help their cute junior, who was nervous about his dating pn!

  Still, as they parted ways, Kaguya wondered why she wasn't as happy as she thought to be.

  Oher hand, as Ishigami sacrificed himself, he had to face this silly devil who loved to toy with others.

  "I see! I see! It's you, Ishigami! But you don't have to worry!"

  Chika appeared like a hero who came to help those who were in need, patting her chest proudly, and decred, "Siective Chika is here, everything is going to be alright!"

  "...ah, um."

  Chika ignored Ishigami's doubt si was normal for the right to be doubted. This was her debut, so her qualifications were unknow with her ability, talents, and brilliant mind, she believed she could bee a cupid for her cute junior~!

  Still, before she discussed Ishigami's love, watg him ge his hairstyle into short hair, she thought that this guy didn't appear bad at all, and at the same time—

  "By the way, I heard what was happening. You are such a good boy, Ishigami-kun~!"

  Patting his head softly, Chika smiled warmly, thinking what this junior of hers did for the girl he loved. If it was someone else, could they do something simir like Ishigami?

  For love, Ishigami could sacrifice his reputation and school life.

  If it wasn't because of the exposing act that happened on the school forum, then no one probably knew what he did.

  Chika felt her eyes were a little wet somehow a a bit jealous of the girl who could have a man who could sacrifiuch for her, but then, this matter aside, as Ishigami had fallen in love with someone else, she would help and support him!

  In the name of Detective Chika, she made such a vow!

  "...eveudents in yrade also heard it?" Ishigami asked weirdly.

  "Of course!" Chika nodded. "I think that no one in the school knows what you do. It is fortuhat you ge your hairstyle, or else you will be treated like a panda in the Ueno Zoo."

  "Everyone in this school has nothing to do."

  "I agree!"

  Ishigami looked at Chika and wondered how she could say something so shameless since she was also included among those who had nothing to do.

  "By the way, I know it is a bit te."

  "What's wrong, Ishigami-kun? If you want my help, Detective Chika is ready to accept any love advice!"

  "...how long are you going to pat my head?"

  Ishigami felt that this girl was too rude for patting his head like this.

  Was he a little child?

  If he wao, he could have a child!

  "Ah, aren't you happy?" Chika looked at Ishigami strangely. "You have such a cute, beautiful girl like me patting your head. Shouldn't you be happy?"

  "....."

  Ishigami was at a loss for a while, w how this silly girl could be so fident.

  Still, pushing her away and stopping her was too easy. Instead of stopping her, he felt he should take advantage of this situation.

  "Only a head pat?"

  "What do you mean?"

  "How about a hug?"

  As he said so, Ishigami opened his arms wide as if waiting for Chika to hug him.

  "....."

  Chika blinked her eyes and blushed. She might have had a fierce attack, but as she had given all of her points into an attack, her defense was retively weak, so at that moment of terattack, she could feel her face was already hot!

  "Y-You want a hug?"

  "Well, you seem embarrassed, so it is fine if you don't want to."

  "W-Who is embarrassed?! The sun is just too intense, and my skin is just too sensitive! e here! Let me hug you!"

  Being uimated, of course, Chika couldn't accept it.

  Moreover, she was his senior!

  How dared this brat look down on her?!

  As she said so, Chika also opened her arms wide, looking at him as if trying to provoke him.

  There was no way a virgin like him dared to do something so bold, right?

  "...."

  Ishigami looked at Chika strangely and asked, "...are you sure?"

  "Yes!" Chika then showed a smug expression and asked, "Or you don't dare, Cherry-kun?"

  'This girl...'

  Ishigami was helpless, but then he looked at Chika with a determined expression, slowly and steadily approag her, ready to hug her.

  'Eh, ah...?'

  Chika couldn't react, especially when Ishigami really dared to hug her. Frankly, as he approached her slowly, she could escape and even push him away, but in the end, she accepted him.

  Still, his hug was gentle, and she could feel that he was trying to be polite.

  'As expected of a virgin!'

  Well, she was a virgin too, so she couldn't say much toward Ishigami, but as they had dohis, there was o hesitate, right?

  So, when he g to her, she also g to him as if telling him that it was okay to hug her a little harder.

  While she didn't expect him to uand her iion, it seemed she uimated him since he hugged her even tighter that she felt almost suffocated, yet strangely enough, this wasn't bad, and watg him, burying his fa her chest, appeared in a low spirited, she sighed helplessly a like... she couldn't just leave him alone.

  'Geez... how you hug me like this...?'

  While Chika was embarrassed, she softly patted Ishigami's head, letting him embrace her body and even buried his fa her chest. She could tell he needed someohe most, and as her senior, she thought she should support him a bit as she could tell he had entered many things.

  'Yes, as his senior...'

  In the beginning, she might be embarrassed, but after a while, she got used to the feeling of being hugged by him and also started to feel rexed.

  Strangely enough, hugging each other like this also felt nice, and she had to say, his st was quite was rexing, she thought.

  Yet, when Ishigami hugged Chika, he couldn't help but show his weak side since he had to admit that everything that happeo him had overwhelmed him. While it was good that he got a sed ce, he would be lying if he wasn't worried about anything.

  Having a new identity, a new family, and many other things.

  More importantly, he was alone!

  However, as a man, he didn't want to show his weakness, and he had to be strong since he had bee Ishigami, and uhe previous Ishigami, he didn't want to settle for being ordinary.

  He might say that he could bee a and bee a parasite for his parents and older brother, but iy, it was impossible for him to do so.

  Yet, Chika's mischief gave him a slight fort, and he just couldn't help but let himself be forted by this silly girl.

  However, when he woke up, feeling the softness on his chest and the gentle st of a girl, he quickly woke up and pushed her as he lowered his head and apologized.

  "...I am sorry for the inveniehat I have caused, Senpai."

  "Eh-Eh?" Chika was startled by his rea and quickly said, "It-It's fine. I am the one who teased you, after all. You don't have to worry."

  Ishigami blinked his eyes and asked, "Then, I hug you once more?"

  "Don't get ahead of yourself!" Chika blushed and lightly tapped Ishigami's head.

  "It hurts!"

  Ishigami let go of Chika and held his head, pretending that Chika's tap was hurt.

  Chika pouted, but she wouldn't be swayed by him anymore since she could tell that he was ag. She came from a family of politis, so naturally, her skill at reading people was high, especially when Ishigami's ag was so bad!

  If only Ishigami knew what Chika thought...

  "By the way, are you sure that you want to help me with my love life?"

  "..."

  Chika fell into silend wasn't in the mood anymore to help Ishigami with his love life, especially after they had hugged each other like that. She khat she just helped him, f him when he was at his weakest, but whehought he would go into the arms of anirl again after this, she was furious!

  What was she?!

  Was she just a pillow used for fort?!

  "I was joking. I didn't fall in love with anyone."

  Chika looked at Ishigami in doubt and asked, "Are you sure?"

  "Yes."

  "You are not lying?"

  "I am not."

  "...you don't fall in love with me, right?"

  "....what do you think?" Ishigami eechless, but Chika said, "But you know? It's normal to fall in love with me since I am a perfect heroine of Shu Academy."

  "...."

  Ishigami fell in silence, w how someone could be so narcissistibsp;

  "What's with those eyes?!" Chika, who was sharp, quickly noticed Ishigami's eyes.

  "Nothing."

  "I know that you make fun of me!"

  "No, no. I think you are right. You are the perfect heroine of the Shu Academy."

  Like any good man, Ishigami ried to fight against a woman since he k was meaningless.

  Yet, in Chika's eyes, this guy made fun of her!

  "But, have you fallen in love before, Senpai?" Ishigami asked curiously.

  "Eh?!" Chika's face quickly reddehen she looked away and said, "It's a secret."

  In other words, no.

  Still, Ishigami's questions had yet to end.

  "Have you dated someone?"

  "....." Chika.

  "Have you gone on a date with someone?"

  "....." Chika.

  "So, how Detective Chika give love advice?" Ishigami asked politely.

  "Ishigami-kun...." Chika looked at Ishigami, and it was her first time knowing that he could be such a tease. Even if he just asked her a standard question, as she could not answer all of those questions, she felt like she was being made fun of!

  Still, no matter how annoyed and furious she was, she didn't know how to ahis question!

  "Ishigami-kun, have you gone on a date? Oh, no, I tell that you haven't!"

  "...aren't you the same?"

  Chika gritted her teeth with a blush of shame and then asked, "Then, how about we go on a date?"

  "Ha?"

  Watg his flustered expression, Chika felt as if she had won. "It's for studying! Training! As your senior, no, as a Detective Chika, it is my duty to teach those who aren't good at love!"

  "..."

  Ishigami blinked his eyes and asked, "Are you sure?"

  "What? You don't want to?" Chika asked with a pout, feeling unhappy since many guys would be happy if they could go on a date with her.

  "No, if you want to help me, then I am happy."

  Watg his sincere smile, Chika blushed, feeling her heart race slightly. 'No, no! How Ishigami make my heart race like this?!' She felt so frustrated since she was the one who had always been messed up by him.

  Or rather, she wao have revenge, making him flustered and blush like how a virgin was!

  "Then, it is decided!" Chika made up her mind and asked, "Are you free this Sunday?"

  "Yeah."

  "The's go on Sunday! Try to set up a dating pn, or rather surprise me! Then, in the end, I will score your love score!"

  'What the heck is a love score?'

  Ishigami eechless, then nodded. "I will make you happy."

  Chika felt embarrassed by his sincere words, but she leased by his hoy. "Good! I 't wait for Sunday! Do your best!" As she said so, she patted Ishigami's shoulder like an experienced elder, thehe student cil but stopped and said, "Oh, don't fet to e 15 minutes earlier from the date appoi!"

  " we just exge our LINE?"

  "Sure."

  The two ged their tafo, too, before they parted ways.

  Watg Chika, who left and appeared to be embarrassed, Ishigami looked at Chika's silly LINE photo profile on his smartphone, feeling strange as he just made a date pn with Chika.

  Still, who was his target firlfriend?

  Frankly, it could be anyone since he hadn't fallen in love, and as long as the girls were cute and part of the story, he was fih anyone.

  Ishigami khat he might appear irresponsible, but it wasn't like he could succeed if he just focused on a single girl, and simir to fishing, he should move around instead of staying in a single spot.

  As for his feelings, he could slowly fall for that someone whearted dating.

  While he was thinking about his dating pn with Chika, someone suddenly called his name.

  "Ishigami!"

  Stopping his steps, he turned and saw someone ued.

  ---

  Love or situation?

  Enjoy no matter the situation with your loved one, or enjoy a fortable life without your loved one?

  While I know that it might sound materialistic, for some people, having a fortable life is much better than living a hard life with ohey love, but then again, I 't deny someone who wishes to live for love no matter how hard it is si is wonderful in its own way.

  It would be better if we could get both, but most of us 't, so we have a fantasy, right?

  Well, regardless, I have made up my mind not to mix the world of Kaguya and Oshi no Ko si is quite troublesome to make Ishigami ehe eai industry, so please wait until he ehe world of "Oshi no Ko."

  Thanks~!
