I Was Reincarnated Into a Romantic Comedy World, so I Tried My Best to Make My Favorite Heroine Win, but for Some Reason, All the Flags Point To Me Instead! - Chapter 9 - What’s Under the Skirt

Chapter 9 – What’s Under the Skirt

“I see, so that’s why you were stalking Momozono-san.”

I glared at Yamada, and Yamada trembled.

“I’m not a stalker!”

Taking secret photos makes you a full-fledged stalker. You said it yourself earlier!

Well, now I understand why Yamada was glancing at Momozono-san from time to time. The rest is——

“So, why were you trying to get close to Takanashi?”

“That’s——”

“That’s?”

I gulped and stared at Yamada’s serious expression.

“It was because of the panties.”

Huh?

“Takanashi saw Momozono-san’s precious panties. So I was chasing after Takanashi because I wanted to ask him what kind of panties she was wearing!”

“…I see.”

I slumped my shoulders in disappointment. I never thought Yamada was after Momozono-san’s panties.

“Don’t look so shocked!”

“I can’t not be shocked.”

“But they’re panties! Don’t tell me you’re not interested in the mysterious thin fabric that covers Momozono-san’s big peach!”

Yamada rambled on, spouting nonstop.

I scratched my head.

“No, I prefer boobs to panties…”

“Anyway!”

Yamada pointed at me.

“If you’re close to a handsome guy like Takanashi, beautiful girls will come to you even if you’re basically invisible! That’s why you approached Takanashi with, wasn’t it?!”

“N-no!”

I have a noble goal of getting Momozono-san and Takanashi together.

Don’t lump me in with someone who becomes a good-looking guy’s best friend and tries to target girls who approach him because they’re handsome!

I cleared my throat and glared at Yamada, making as scary a face as I could.

“For now, I understand the situation. But if you get any closer to Momozono-san or Takanashi, I’ll tell Momozono-san that you’re a perverted stalker who takes secret photos of her.”

“I-I-I understand.”

Yamada collapsed, eyes teary and weak. He better be telling the truth.

Oh, that’s right. If Yamada’s following Takanashi was really about the panties…

“They were pink.”

“Huh?”

Yamada’s eyes widened at my words, as if he didn’t understand what I was saying.

“They were pink, the color of Momozono-san’s panties. I actually saw them back then, too.”

Yes, if Yamada had been stalking Takanashi about Momozono-san’s panties, he should be satisfied if I told him what they were like. Or so I thought, but——

“Bwah!!”

Blood splattered.

Bright red blood spurted out of Yamada’s nose, staining my shirt.

“Huh?!?”

“Pink… Momozono-san’s panties were pink!!”

Yamada repeated this with a blissful look on his face, twitching and spasming.

For a moment I didn’t understand what was going on, but it seemed he was so excited by the information about Momozono-san’s panties that he started spurting a nosebleed.

Seriously, getting a nosebleed from getting excited about panties, it’s like something out of a manga!!

…Come to think of it, this guy is a manga character.

“Ah, there you are, Takeda. I came to check on you because you took too long. What are you doing here——”

Mikan arrived at the right time and froze when she saw Yamada bleeding profusely from his nose.

“Gughh, Mikan?!”

“Hey, what are you——”

Mikan’s face changed color.

“N-no! It wasn’t me!”

This is bad. From an outsider’s perspective, it would look like I hit Yamada!

I hastily put my arm around Yamada’s shoulders.

“Well, Yamada-kun just happened to have a nosebleed. I’m going to take Yamada-kun to the nurse’s office now, so tell the others. Okay, Yamada-kun, come with me to the nurse’s office!”

“Uh…yeah.”

Mikan went back to the others with a confused look on her face.

Ah, she must have misunderstood something, what should I do?

I sighed deeply.

“For now, let’s go to the nurse’s office together.”

“Yes, okay.”

In the end, I accompanied Yamada to the nurse’s office, wasting my precious lunch break.

Sigh… I missed my precious lunch break with Momozono-san.

But well, I’ve given Yamada a good warning, so from now on, Yamada won’t be following Momozono-san and Takanashi around anymore.

◇　◇　◇

“So, what’s in the lunch box today?”

The next day. The four of us were gathered under the tree in the back garden again, preparing to eat lunch.

“Oh, it’s fried chicken today.”

“Wow, that looks delicious!”

As we were talking about our lunch, I felt someone looking at me again.

“Huh?”

Could it be Yamada again?

But after what I said yesterday, I thought he wouldn’t dare show up.

As I was looking around, Takanashi looked at me with a puzzled expression.

“What’s wrong, Takeda-kun?”

“No, it’s nothing. I was just imagining some things.”

That’s strange, I definitely felt Yamada’s presence.

As I was thinking that, Mikan pointed at my smartphone.

“Takeda, your smartphone is glowing.”

“Ah.”

Mikan said that, and I picked up my smartphone without thinking.

When I did, I saw that someone had just sent me a picture.

“The sender is——Yamada!?”

What’s going on?! How did he get my contact information?

“…Huh.”

When I opened it, I found many shots that emphasized the shape of Momozono-san’s breasts, such as Momozono-san leaning forward to show her cleavage, Momozono-san with her bag hanging diagonally, and many more.

“…That guy!”

I looked around and saw Yamada running towards the school building.

“Sorry, I forgot something in my bag!”

I hurriedly tried to chase after Yamada, but it seemed I was a step too late, and before I knew it, I had lost sight of Yamada.

“Damn… He got away.”

Then I received this message on my phone.

[I’m sending you pictures of Momozono-san’s breasts, Takeda, since you’re a fan of breasts! So please let this slide! Your best friend in spirit, YAMADA☆]

There’s no way I’m letting this slide!

Seriously, if I find that guy again, he’s not gonna get away with it.

I glanced at my phone.

But, still, I made sure to save the image of Momozono-san’s breasts.
