Chat Group: Anime Girls are Moist-Chapter 220 - : The Hopeless Geniuses
Chapter 220 - 220: The Hopeless Geniuses
Under the great pressure of being entrusted with this problem, Kasumigaoka couldn't help but ask:
Kasumigaoka Utaha: "How is your friend's relationship with her mother?"
Eriri: "They get along great. Her mother also really respects her personal interests. They're extremely close."
Kasumigaoka Utaha: "And...what does your friend herself think?"
Eriri: "Uh... She...she feels very conflicted."
Eriri: "On one side, there's her dear mother; on the other, her beloved boyfriend."
Eriri: "Obviously, each one alone is a blessing. But together...it's just so weird."
Eriri: "She has no idea how she's supposed to face them now."
Kasumigaoka Utaha: "...I really don't have a solution for that, apart from advising your friend to calm down and follow her own heart. At least your friend and her mother aren't related by blood."
"!!!"
Having said that line, Kasumigaoka felt somewhat regretful.
Her statement more or less carried a hint of guidance.
But, unfortunately, the chat group had no "recall message" option.
And sure enough, it worked like a lightbulb moment for the other side.
Eriri's eyes lit up: "Right...they aren't blood-related, are they?"
All of a sudden, all her conflict and confusion vanished, as though she'd reached enlightenment in a flash.
Eriri: "Thank you, Utaha—I get it now!"
Kasumigaoka Utaha: "???"
Wait, what exactly did you figure out?!
Kasumigaoka Utaha felt that her casual remark sounded just like something Rei Ao might say.
"Tch..."
Given the situation:
"Not my problem anymore. Anyway, this isn't my fault."
Moreover:
"I guess Rei Ao-kun at least owes me a 'thank you,' huh?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha imagined Rei Ao soon enjoying himself in a position of having an arm around each side, and felt annoyed, grinding her teeth.

"Tch, a pervert's a pervert."

Meanwhile, in the homeroom teacher's office for Year 3, Class 1:
Kirisu Mafuyu stood with arms folded, her stern gaze fixed on the two girls in front of her: one with blue hair, one with chestnut-brown hair.
"Furuhashi Fumino, Ogata Rizu—I've said all I can. Now tell me your decisions~."
Kirisu Mafuyu's frosty tone caused both girls to tremble.
They both hung their heads in silence.
Kirisu Mafuyu wasn't bullying them; rather, she was trying to advise them about their futures. In her view, these two were "talented but problematic" students in her class.
Furuhashi Fumino
Outstanding looks:
Large, light-brown eyes
A tear mole under her left eye
Fair skin
A radiant smile
Long, waist-length blue hair
She was beautiful and also a top genius in the liberal arts.
She had a perfect score in modern Japanese, classical literature, and Chinese classics, an overwhelming mastery. Called "The Sleeping Beauty of the Literary Forest."
But she was the type of genius who excelled at only one area—liberal arts. In exchange, she was terrible at the sciences. Indeed, she'd never even passed a science test.
As long as she exploited her strong point in liberal arts, she'd be set on a stable, successful path.
But Mafuyu's headache was that Fumino's ambition was to get into a science university, wishing to work in astronomy in the future—insisting on that dream.
She was extremely persistent.
Ogata Rizu
She was basically the opposite of Fumino. She had short orange-reddish hair, blue pupils, wore red oval-framed glasses, and a red bow hair clip by her left temple.
Compared to Fumino's delicate face, Rizu's features were a bit plainer, but she had something Fumino couldn't match—a certain bra size.
Fumino's figure was...unremarkable; even an A-cup might be in danger.
Rizu boasted an astonishing G-cup!
Just like that eye-catching bust, her math/science ability was impressive. She consistently topped the year in math, physics, and other science subjects—hence she was called the "clockwork Thumbelina" or "the girl who can craft anything."
But like Fumino, Rizu was a "one-area genius." She had no competence in liberal arts. The scary part: even basic reading comprehension forced her to rely on math-based thinking. How could that possibly work?
Though her science aptitude was out of this world, her ambition was the opposite of Fumino's—she wanted a liberal arts university to study psychology in college.
Crucially, both of them were extremely stubborn. They tried so many times to improve their weaknesses, without success. As their homeroom teacher, Kirisu Mafuyu had repeatedly warned them. Because in her mind, a person's talent is their treasure, which must be used wisely. Seeing them waste such rare gifts made her feel personally offended, as though they were throwing away what she herself had always longed for.
For these and other reasons, after seeing all their repeated failures, Kirisu Mafuyu decided to give them "one last chance." After that, she intended to inform the school leadership and their families, who also wouldn't want their talents wasted.
Furuhashi Fumino clenched a fist. She was resolved to go to a science university and pursue astronomy, because of her mom, or perhaps her dream.
"I refuse. I just want to move forward for the sake of my dream—I don't care about 'talent!'"
She bit her lip, gazing defiantly into Mafuyu's eyes.
"I refuse as well!"
Ogata Rizu stuck to her plan.
Kirisu Mafuyu paused, then said gravely:
"You two still won't give in? Your grades can't reach your ideal level in such a short time."
"Then if you can't even get into a decent college, what will you do?"
This was the fatal question. With their extreme lopsidedness, it was nearly impossible to jump to a passing grade in just over a week. They'd tried countless times.
"..."
It shook their confidence.
"There's really no way at all?"
Fumino murmured in frustration. Suddenly, she recalled something—someone in their grade had soared to the top, with perfect marks in every subject, practically overnight.
She looked up abruptly:
"Mafuyu-sensei, do you know the student Rei Ao?!"
Ogata Rizu, hearing that name, also reacted. She adjusted her glasses:
"You mean the one who shot to first place in the grade all of a sudden?"
"Yes!"
Fumino's eyes glowed:
"If he can do it, then maybe we can too!"
"Right!"
Rizu joined her excitement, regaining hope.
"Rei Ao..."
Kirisu Mafuyu sank into thought. She never imagined that her problem students would bring up a miracle she herself had witnessed, effectively slapping her in the face with it.
"Mafuyu-sensei, we want to learn from Rei Ao-san!!!"
"Mm, mm!!!"
Both of them gazed at her with bright, fervent eyes. She'd been about to scold that Rei Ao was totally different from them, but swallowed her words. Pressing her lips together, she decided:
"Fine. I'll give you one last chance."
