As Yuu approached them, nonchalantly taking a look at the girls' lower bodies all the while, he could hear their conversation.
The gym uniforms were divided by color according to their grade, and for Yuu and other first year students, it was rouge.
The two's were green in color, which meant they were second-year students.
「Higashino!」
「Ah! Hirose-kun!」
The moment he saw Yuu, Rei, who had a troubled look on his face, sported a smile as if help had arrived when he was cornered into a tight spot.
「Oh my God! So cool…」
「What in the world is going on?! With this year's first year, I mean. Aren't they so high leveled?」
Yuu could hear them muttering something.
He then deliberately sported a smile and talked to them.
That was because both of them were attractive sporty girls, after all.
「I'm sorry, Senpai. I was thinking about going with him to observe club activities, but how can I help you?」
Now that they were facing each other, Yuu found that both of them were a little bigger than him, who was 170 cm.
He guessed that they must be athletic in terms of their physique.
At the same time, a question arose.
Boys didn't go to sports clubs.
In that case, why were they asking one like this?
「You see. We're from the basketball club, and we do our activities in the gym after school. I've asked this boy, too, but I'd like to ask you to watch our club activities, even if it's just for a little while.」
「Eh, may I ask why? Sports clubs are full of girls, so even if boys go there, I don't think they'll ever join, after all.」
Upon hearing what the short haired girl said, Yuu tilted his head.
Personally speaking, Yuu would love to join them if allowed to do so, but as expected, that was unlikely to happen.
There, the girl with the long hair tied up into a bun took over.
「Actually, you see, just having boys watch us during the observation period would greatly increase the number of people who wish to join the club. Well, if you could, you know, the regular practice… is as expected impossible, but if you could come to watch our games, it would greatly boost our motivation, you see. Thinking that for starter it'd be nice if you could show up even if it's just once, we're running around like this to recruit boys.」
Yuu felt that he had come to an understanding inside.
In other words, it was the same as in his former world where male athletes in the baseball and soccer clubs would be in high spirits if they could get girls to come and cheer them on.
He took a glance at Rei.
He was sporting an anxious look on his face, wondering how Yuu would overcome this ordeal.
「Higashino, can you to spare me a little of your time?」
「Eh, don't tell me….」
「I'm a little interested. I don't play ball games myself, but I like to watch them, you see.」
As expected, he could not say here that it was because this was a chance to watch the scenes of girls exercising in a fair and honest manner.
「U, umm… Well, this is something that you have chosen, so I'll go out with you, Hirose-kun.」
Rei nodded with a resigned look on his face. It seemed that over the past few days, along with Masaya, he had perceived that Yuu was quite an oddball.
Having secured his consent, Yuu turned to the two seniors.
I bet they'll refuse. But by some chance… The two were sporting such an entreating look on their faces.
「Very well, senpai. Shall we go and take a look at it, then?」
「I know, right? As expected, it's a no… Huh? What did you just say?!」
「We're going to come with you. But we have plans after this, so that applies only if it's just for 10 minutes or so, though…」
「O, ooh… Yay! We did it!」
「With this, the grueling training from the senpai will be… No, it's nothing! Hahaha. I'm sure everyone in the basketball team will welcome me with open arms!」
They were extremely delighted.
Yuu warmly watched over the two seniors, who were holding their hands together and hopping around.
