"Why do you keep staring at me?"

After the bus drove for a while, Utsunomiya Miu finally turned her head away from the car window, frowned slightly and said.

From the moment the bus started driving until now, she found that Tetsuya Kiritani had been staring at her seriously, making it impossible for her to calm down and appreciate the scenery outside the window.

"Am I not concentrating on painting?"

Looking at Utsunomiya Miu's delicate and pretty face, Kiritani Tetsu did not put down the pencil in his hand. Instead, he stared at the angelic and beautiful face more intently, and then sketched smooth lines in his sketchbook.

During the painting process, Tetsu Kiritani did not forget to add: "I usually have a habit of painting. When I see a beautiful scenery, I can't help but draw it."

"Forget it, just paint if you like."

After hearing Kiritani Tetsuya's explanation and answer, Utsunomiya Miu's slightly frowned brows unintentionally relaxed, and then she looked away and said.

"Don't worry, I will show it to you after I finish the painting."

"I'm not very interested in what you drew."

Utsunomiya Miu said calmly, then turned her head away from the window again.

"That's such a shame."

Kiritani Tetsuya sighed with pretense of regret, and then continued to describe Utsunomiya Miu's nearly perfect appearance in his sketchbook.

It can be seen that Utsunomiya Miu, who is sitting in the car today, is wearing a simple white T-shirt and a pair of white leggings that match the top perfectly. On her feet is a pair of breathable women's sneakers, which connects her two fair-skinned legs.

The delicate legs are completely wrapped.

Because of the hot weather, the girl in front of her tied her waist-length hair into a single ponytail, giving her a refreshing and beautiful look that was obviously different from that in school.

It's a pity that Kiritani Tetsuya's own painting skills are limited. Even if he treats this painting with great care, he still can't perfectly display Utsunomiya Miu's flawless face from any angle in the sketchbook.

, I’m afraid I can’t control even half of the beauty of a girl.

At this moment, Kiritani Tetsuya felt for the first time that his painting ability was far from enough, so much so that he was unable to show the girl's face as realistically as possible.

"If it were Ibuki Tamao who painted it, the effect would be much better than mine."

While he was drawing like this, Kiritani Tetsu couldn't help but think about it in his mind.

Although it was impossible to show the beauty of Utsunomiya Miu vividly, Kiritani Tetsuya tried his best to restore the most basic facial contours and facial details of this divine girl to the original blank sketchbook.

At this time, the sketch based on Utsunomiya Miu's unique beauty was basically completed.

"The painting is finished. It actually looks pretty good. Why don't you take a look?"

Putting the newly completed sketch in front of his eyes, Kiritani Tetsuya couldn't help but praise himself.

"I won't read anymore." Utsunomiya Miu still pretended to be uninterested.

"Then leave it to yourself to enjoy."

Being rejected by the girl next to him again, Kiritani Tetsuya didn't pay much attention.

At this time, he felt the urge to urinate in his body. After finishing the painting that he was going to hand in a few days later, he hurriedly put down the sketchbook in his hand, got up and went to the toilet room located in the middle of the bus.

Within a few seconds, Kiritani Tetsuya's figure disappeared from the aisle in the middle of the bus.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Kiritani Tetsuya entering the toilet room. Utsunomiya Miu, who had been silently admiring the scenery, slowly turned his head, took advantage of Kiritani Tetsuya's break to go to the toilet, picked up his sketchbook, and

Turned to the latest page.

On this page is the simple portrait Tetsuya Kiritani had just created for her.

"The painting is really ugly."

After staring at the sketch Kiritani Tetsuya had just completed for a while, Utsunomiya Miu curled her lips and said.

After saying this casually, seeing that Tetsuya Kiritani still didn't come out of the toilet, the girl secretly took out her mobile phone and took a photo of the painting in front of her.

After taking the photo, Utsunomiya Miu put the sketchbook of the other party where it was originally placed. Even the angle of placement was almost the same as before, pretending that it had never been moved.

After finishing the aftermath work, Utsunomiya Miu continued to hold her hands against the window, raised her white chin and stared at the scenery passing by outside the window.

A few minutes later.

After using the toilet, Tetsuya Kiritani returned to his seat.

By the time he put his sketchbook and pencils back into his suitcase, the bus, which had been driving for more than two hours, finally stopped.

"Everyone, we're here."

Kaoru Hanada's energetic voice sounded in the bus again.

At this time, Tetsuya Kiritani couldn't help but look out the window, and what came into view was a rural scenery that was completely different from that of urban Tokyo.

Hakone is basically surrounded by beautiful landscapes, and the surrounding streets are also full of a harmonious and tranquil atmosphere, as if a beautiful picture of the integration of man-made buildings and natural landscapes has truly been achieved.

Even if you look farther away, you can vaguely see the spectacular Mount Fuji and its pure white snow top dozens of kilometers away.

In this way, Kiritani Tetsuya followed the people in front of him and got off the bus while curiously looking at Hakone Town, which he had never been to before.

After getting off the bus, he immediately saw members of the film department waiting for them near the drop-off point. Among them, the director of the film department, Tachibana Akiko, was standing at the front of the group of students.

"Tachibana-san, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

As the last person to get off the bus, Kaoru Hanada quickly walked up to Tachibana Akiko and spoke in a tone that contained both excitement and joy.

"Actually, we just waited here for ten minutes."

Tachibana Akiko replied with a happy smile. It can be seen that the relationship between the two in the class seems to be good.

"Have everyone from your club come over?"

Tachibana Akiko then asked, and during the process of asking, his eyes quickly scanned the crowd behind Hanada Xun.

However, when she saw Tetsuya Kiritani among the crowd in the art department, the expression on Tachibana Akiko's face froze in an instant, and she spoke sharply the next second.

"Tetsuya Kiritani, why are you here!"

"Senior Lihua, I didn't expect us to meet again."

Kiritani Tetsuya shrank back a little uncomfortably, and faced Tachibana Akiko's terrifying eyes and said:

"You two know each other?"

Seeing Kiritani Tetsuya and Tachibana Akiko naturally striking up a conversation, Utsunomiya Miu interjected with some confusion and asked.

"It's Utsunomiya-san. Actually, we don't even know each other. Who would know such a hateful scumbag?"

Hearing Utsunomiya Miu's sudden voice, Tachibana Akiko's expression softened for a moment, and she immediately restored her original friendly smile and said.

"Utsunomiya-san, I advise you to try your best to stay away from scumbags like Tetsuya Kiritani in the future. I don't want the brightest pearl of our film department to be lost to such a scumbag..."

After instantly clearing up her relationship with Kiritani Tetsuya, Tachibana Akiko then persuaded Utsunomiya Miu earnestly. While speaking, she also looked at the divine girl who had not seen him for many days with admiration from top to bottom.

Fan.

However, when Tachibana Akiko's eyes gradually moved down to the girl's waist, she found that Utsunomiya Miu's small hand and Kiritani Tetsuya's palm were tightly clasped together, and her whole look immediately became quite strange.

After noticing the obvious change in Tachibana Akiko's expression, Utsunomiya Miu noticed that her little hand had been held by Kiritani Tetsuya all the way when she got out of the car, and she hasn't let go yet.

After realizing this, the girl subconsciously glanced in the direction where Ibuki Tamao was. When she realized that neither the other person nor the surrounding art department students were paying attention, she breathed out softly.

Then Utsunomiya Miu quickly threw away Kiritani Tetsuya's arm, as if she didn't want others to notice the awkwardness on her face. Under the gazes of Kiritani Tetsuya and Tachibana Akiko, one person held the suitcase and took the lead in getting rid of it.

The crowd gathered around headed towards the direction of the hotel.

"Tetsuya Kiritani, it's okay for you to have harmed me before, but now you are harming even Utsunomiya-san, the most noble student in our department. Sooner or later you will suffer retribution."

After seeing that Utsunomiya Miu was directly "angry" by Kiritani Tetsuya's behavior, Tachibana Akiko, who had already walked up to Kiritani Tetsuya, glared at Kiritani Tetsuya fiercely, and the anger revealed in her eyes seemed to be threatening.

The other party was caught and beaten violently.

"Tachibana-senpai, Utsunomiya-san and I are in love, so it's not your turn to object."

Faced with Tachibana Akiko's increasingly unrestrained gaze and tone, Kiritani Tetsuya had no intention of being polite to him anymore, and then said calmly.

"What are you dreaming about? Utsunomiya-san is the club member I have cared about the most in the past six months, and you want to take her away from me."

After hearing Kiritani Tetsuya's answer, Tachibana Akiko laughed contemptuously, obviously thinking that the other party was mentally ill.

"Then I would like to ask, Tachibana-senpai, how many times has Utsunomiya-san been to the Film Club Activity Classroom in the past six months?"

Kiritani Tetsuya suddenly asked this question.

"Let me think about it... it's none of your business, you scumbag. Anyway, as long as I'm here, you can never get close to Utsunomiya-san in our club again."

At this time, Tachibana Akiko's confidence in speaking suddenly dropped by more than half. After finally warning Kiritani Tetsuya again, she returned to the crowd in the film department and took the students from her club to the hotel they had booked a few days ago.

"Then let's go with them."

Immediately afterwards, Hanada Kaoru, who was at the outermost edge of the crowd in the Art Club, also called out to his club members and asked them to follow Tachibana Akiko and others who were walking in front.

"Kiritani-san, did you make any progress with Utsunomiya-san in the car just now?"

Taking advantage of the gap when Utsunomiya Miu was not here, Ibuki Tamao came to Kiritani Tetsuya's side unknowingly, and then asked quietly.

"There's not much progress, but I've completed the paintings that I have to submit in the past few days."

Kiritani Tetsuya recalled his experience in the car not long ago and spoke truthfully.

"This is what Kiritani-san has been doing in the past few hours?"
