Crossover Anime: I'm at Shuchiin Academy, and my surname is Uchiha.

Chapter 45 The Delicious Beauty of Poetry

"Kaguya-chan, I'll head back now~"

Fujiwara Chika chose to leave early; she no longer wanted to go back to the study and endure the torment of the top two students in her grade.

Hayasaka Ai waved her hand, then looked at Uchiha Ryo beside her.

"And you?"

"What's wrong with me?" Uchiha Ryo couldn't understand what Hayasaka Ai was saying.

Kaguya Shinomiya stepped forward. "How long do you plan to stay with me, Uchiha-kun?"

"If you can lend me your maid, I'll leave right now."

Kaguya Shinomiya fell silent.

Hayasaka Ai lowered her head and then forcefully pushed Uchiha Ryo out.

"Ling, see you tomorrow."

.....

Outside the gate of the Shinomiya residence, Uchiha Ryo stood helplessly, gazing at the sky. Sunday afternoons were always so boring and tedious.

Going straight home would be too boring; why not go out for a walk?

Although it was Sunday, you could still see fashionable female college students with a modern style, young ladies out having fun on the weekend, or professional women dressed in office attire on the shopping street.

A man? Please, as a man, who goes out to look for men? Uchiha Ling stopped in front of a bookstore.

I just finished reading the first volume of "Love Metronome". The second volume has been published now, right? I remember that this second volume was heavily promoted online, which led to the future Kasumi Utako.

After buying two books on love metronome, Uchiha Ryo noticed an arcade not far away.

I heard that the arcade games here are still very popular in the Tokyo area. Whether it's the classic action games or the newer competitive arcade games, they are all loved by players.

Oh dear, I found someone I know.

In front of an arcade machine surrounded by people, a red-haired youth with spiky hair was shouting incessantly.

A sign next to it read: "King of Fighters 1v1 duel, 300 yuan per challenge, win and take home 3000 yuan."

Meanwhile, the one who was having a solo match with the red-haired youth was a young blue-haired boy. That's right, Ishigami Yu, the famous otaku from Shuchiin, was completely crushing his opponent. He couldn't understand why someone with such skills would dare to come out and challenge him to a one-on-one fight.

"It's here! It's an unlimited combo technique, an infinite combo that requires extremely high reflexes and precise skill execution!"

Yuzuru Ishigami turned on the controller and defeated his opponent with full health, which was rather boring.

Uchiha Ryo silently withdrew his Sharingan. Hmm, the technique of infinite combo has been successfully copied.

The red-haired youth handed over three thousand yuan with a somewhat unpleasant expression. Just after Ishigami Yu stood up, Uchiha Ryo suddenly walked over.

"Someone has already succeeded in the challenge, are you guys still coming?"

The red-haired youth saw a glimmer of hope for recouping his losses. "Of course! Three hundred per round, but those who have already succeeded are not allowed to repeat the challenge."

Just as Ishigami Yu was about to leave, he glanced at Uchiha Ryo. Hmm? He seems to be!

Yu Ishigami said he knew this person. Ever since Hikaru Ogino started acting strangely, Yu Ishigami didn't believe that Hikaru Ogino would give up so easily, so he hired a private investigator.

However, the result was that Hikaru Ogino and Kyoko Otomo broke up peacefully, and he did not look for any girlfriends.

Yu Ishigami remembered that when school ended that day, this Uchiha senior seemed to have gotten into Hikaru Ogino's car.

Could Hikaru Ogino's changes be related to this person...?

"Young man, is this your first time playing King of Fighters? Why are you still figuring out the buttons?"

Uchiha Ryo nodded. "I'm more used to the keyboard. This is my first time using a gamepad."

The red-haired youth chuckled, "Then you'd better keep it up. I've been in the arcade world for a long time and haven't lost more than a few times."

It seems you just lost once, to a middle school student.

He was nicknamed "Arcade King," or simply...

The battle began, and Uchiha Ryo made the first attack... an infinite combo was activated.

After taking away the three thousand yuan from Arcade King again, Uchiha Ryo looked at Ishigami Yu, who had not yet left.

"Shall we go and talk?"

"Does the senior know me?"

Uchiha Ryo shook his head. "I don't know him, but I do know a guy named Ogino Hikaru."

After leaving the arcade with Ishigami Yu, Uchiha Ryo spoke first before Ishigami Yu could ask any questions.

"You should know something about what Hikaru Ogino did. In short, what he did really annoyed me, so I went directly to his house and talked to the head of the Ogino family. In the end... I won him over with virtue."

Ishigami nodded. "No wonder. Then I'd like to thank Uchiha-senpai for saving Otomo-san. She's my friend."

"No need, I've done something to rid the people of a scourge."

"Where are you headed, senior?"

Uchiha Ryo thought for a moment, "Let's go to Akihabara. To be honest, I've suddenly become very interested in maids these past few days and want to try out a real maid cafe."

Yu Ishigami felt as if he had seen one of his own.

"Senior! What a coincidence! Please take me with you."

[Ishigami Yu's favorability increased - G-spot +20]

Uchiha Ryo was taken aback. "You also want to see the maids?"

Yu Ishigami scratched his head. "No, I just went to Akihabara to buy figures. After finishing the latest volume of Naruto, I couldn't resist buying Konoha ninja figures!"

"I see. Let's go together then."

The two arrived at the station one day and boarded the train to Akihabara. To prevent Ishigami Yu from getting bored on the train, Uchiha Ryo recommended "Love Metronome" to him.

Yu Ishigami readily accepted and said he would definitely read the novel recommended by his senior carefully.

On the train, due to the difficulty in finding seats, Yu Ishigami and Ryo Uchiha had to stay in separate carriages.

With about twenty minutes left before arriving in Akihabara, I guess I'll have to take out the second volume of "Love Metronome" to read.

When the train stopped at one station, Uchiha Ryo noticed an empty seat next to him and was about to call Ishigami Yu over when a girl who had just boarded the train beat him to it.

Uchiha Ryo's gaze was forced to shift from the "Love Metronome" in her hand. Hmm... those were legs that were in no way inferior to Yukinoshita's, long and shapely, making one want to touch them.

My gaze drifted downwards unintentionally, and I noticed that the delicate black leather shoes were slightly upturned, concealing the silk-stockinged feet beneath the black pantyhose.

What incredible luck! To witness such a savory scene on the train. However, Uchiha Ryo's control and capture of the view were perfect.

The other person is completely unaware that he is looking at her, while the other person... seems to be glancing in his direction from time to time.

Huh? So she wasn't looking at me, but at the book in my hand? It seems that Ms. Kasumi Shiko considers me one of her book fans.
