Stealing Spree-Novel

Chapter 1582 Crop

Of course, with their topic being about me, none of the two girls dared to tell me about it.

The flustered Shimura kept on fumbling with her words and almost lost her balance from fidgeting so much. If I didn’t fill in the gap between them, she would have no one to lean on to get her balance back.

Uh. Let’s not talk about how that little contact with me made her even more flustered.

It’s understandable, anyway. She’s the type who’s akin to an open book. I didn’t need to observe her closely to find out how much she was interested in me. I was certain that it was only admiration before. But after my confession at that snack bar and my transformation post-haircut, it had developed this much within that short time.

Most likely, if by some chance, we found ourselves alone together, she might not be able to stop herself from confessing. Or if she lacked the courage to do that, she’d be lost in her thoughts within that duration.

On the other hand, the quick-witted Misumi managed to come up with something else to pass off as the secret they were talking about.

She’s different from Shimura. She’s the type who can really act like she’s uninterested in someone yet able to get close to that person naturally. We didn’t have that much interaction with each other but that’s what I picked up every time we were in the same place. Like this very moment.

Nonetheless, those instances were becoming lesser due to the fact that my girls seldom leave my side anymore.

Let’s just say, they’re in luck today.

“As promised. I’ll keep that secret. You two can come and complain to me if it ever leaked.”

After pretending to believe what she just made up, that’s how I responded along with a gesture of zipping my mouth shut.

“Eh. It’s not that serious.”

“T-that’s right. And we know you’re trustworthy, Onoda-kun.”

Misumi’s eyes darted around as she couldn’t handle looking at me straight after making that secret up. And Shimura could only awkwardly go along with it.

There’s no need to put them in a tough spot. It’s enough to let the matter rest there. And so, the three of us continued to the science lab. Obviously, coming into the lab along with me earned the two a mix of hostile and intrigued gazes from my girls and our classmates alike. Shimura almost shrunk behind me to hide from that while Misumi somehow managed to look like she was proudly standing her ground but secretly, she was shaking.

“I can’t say I’m not impressed, Ruki. Catching girls is now like pulling a crop from your field. You can take a pick and people will think it's natural.”

As I took up the seat that my girls reserved for me, Hana who was seated directly behind me leaned forward to whisper that.

Before I could react to that, Nami, who was taking up the space on my right, expressed her agreement with a nod. Her eyes seemingly homed into both Shimura and Misumi who had just separated from me.

Is she intimidating them? Maybe. Maybe not. Well, Saki was taking half of my attention, after all. As she was seated on my left, she didn’t waste the chance to grab my hand again and hid it under our desk.

Although we were seated at the same location as before, they always shuffled on who would be sitting next to me. The last time, it was Chii and Hana.

Anyway, Nami also didn’t stop there. Soon she uttered a response to Hana’s words. But in my ears, it sounded like another jab to the stubborn girl.

Yeah. They’re still butting heads with each other whenever there’s a chance.

“And you’re one of those crops, Hana. You have no hope of stealing him. Likewise, no one can steal you from him. His property has been barricaded pretty well so that no trespasser can get in.”

“Hmm? Are you talking about yourself? Uh. No. If I remember correctly, you’re someone else’s crop. And Ruki stole you right under that someone’s nose.”

To drive her words to a point, Hana not only fired that back but she also intentionally glanced at Ogawa.

Nami clicked her tongue. After all, it’s the truth and she couldn’t refute it.

However, she’s not one to back down after one loss. Nami faced Hana and smirked. Then, as though she was trying to provoke her, the girl lifted my arm and let it stretch to her back, making me hold her by her waist.

Although it’s not that visible to others, those directly behind us could see it clearly.

And it’s effective, I heard Hana’s annoyed hum. But like Nami, she wouldn’t let it end in her defeat.

Not long after that, she already came up with a response. Since it was impossible to do the same thing as Nami, the girl leaned closer, enough for her lips to brush against my nape.

Ignoring whatever attention she would get, Hana chomped on my neck.

In the end, I turned into the stage of their new battlefield.

To control the situation, I naturally had to step in. Otherwise, they’d probably continue bantering even when the class was already ongoing.

First, I clamped my fingers around Nami’s side, making the girl flinch a bit from being tickled. Not stopping there, I slid my hand down, feeling up her supple thigh and squishy behind. To prevent herself from issuing a lewd sound, Nami bit her lips and had no choice but to use my shoulder to lean her head on.

Next, before Hana could sit back down, I caught her cheek and pinched it before saying, “Nami is right, you know? You’re also a crop that I harvested before. I just replanted you and somehow forgot about you for a few years. What do you think? Is it time I harvest you again? I’m salivating at the thought of tasting you.”

Interpreting that in the way I intended her to, Hana’s flawless face immediately turned crimson. Her hidden golden eye even showed up a little bit when she tried shaking off my hand from her cheek. Then, in a challenging tone, she replied, “Oh, really? Go ahead then.” New chapters are published on novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

“Sure. Wait until I bring you home. Let’s see if you can still say you’re going to steal me.”

Upon saying that, I let go of her cheek and watch her rub it while pouting. But as always, she recovered quickly and put on a face as though she had full control of the situation.

Hina and Chii who were next to her started berating her but in a lighthearted tone.

As for Saki, she watched all that while looking unbothered. I mean, she’s more than satisfied to continue being by my side. Her birthday might’ve been interrupted by the silent guy earlier but it’s far from over.

At this point, like Shimura and Misumi said, it’s already a normal occurrence for me to be crowded by them. Even when we started getting even more high-key in our intimate interactions, it’s probably not strange to them anymore. At least, to those unrelated. But for those who were still observing us like a hawk, we were probably either making their envy rage on or continuing to be amused at the sight.

A few minutes later, the three of us straightened ourselves up as our Science Teacher soon arrived to start our 3rd period.

After this, one class left and we’d be free for today.

Ah. Wait. Let me correct that.

One class left before my busy day continues.

In any case, for now, I’ll be studying diligently again. I can’t slack off on that part, after all.
