I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo Chapter 676: Rita: "Hello, my name is Rita Ainsworth."

Chapter 676: Rita: “h.e.l.lo, my name is Rita Ainsworth.”

After they ate, they continued their day and prepared for the movie. This time their destination was the Meiji Jingu Gaien. It was a place where they would shoot one of the important scenes in the movie.

Still, it seemed Rita loved her food, so she kept talking about it. She had only been in Tokyo for a while, and the only place she had visited was Sakurasou. However, it was normal since her purpose in coming to Tokyo was to bring Shiina back, so she was quite happy when Shishio brought her to taste local food.

“But I didn’t expect the food to taste so good!”

“Right?”

“Will we go there again?”

“Probably not.”

“Huh? Why?”

“Do you want to eat in that place all the time while you’re here?”

“…er.”

Rita felt that she was kind of stupid. There were many places in this country that she could visit, so why should she ask him to bring her to that place again?

If she should ask him next time, it should be in a more fancy place, right?

Suddenly, she realized that she might be influenced by him subconsciously, which made her look at him with amazement.

“What’s with that gaze?”

“No, but I want you to bring me to a better place next time!” Rita made her decision. It didn’t really matter if she was influenced by him or not, but she was going to mooch him off.

“You sure are brave enough to ask someone’s boyfriend for a date in front of his girlfriend.”

“…….”

Rita was quite stiff and stared at Yukinos.h.i.ta, who also happened to look at her. She raised her hands and said, “I a.s.sure you I don’t have an interest in this kind of sc.u.mbag.” If she wanted a boyfriend, she wanted to have someone who could love her alone, wholeheartedly, instead of a sc.u.mbag like Shishio.

“Oh.”

“Oh?”

“It’s okay. If you want to bring him somewhere, I don’t mind.”

“…really?”

“Yes.” Yukinos.h.i.ta nodded. “It’s something normal for him to go out with a girl, after all. I can’t stop him in this matter.”

“……..” Shishio felt that Yukinos.h.i.ta’s stare was hurt.

“But…”

“But?” Rita quickly asked.

“Nothing.”

“…really?” Rita was quite nervous since she felt that Yukinos.h.i.ta wanted to say something but decided against it.

“Yes, you don’t need to worry, but since you’re here to help us shoot a movie, okay?”

“Yes, I will help you as much as I can!” Rita patted her chest, telling Yukinos.h.i.ta to leave everything to her. After all, she had decided to become Shishio’s maid, and naturally, she would help him. She could also see that she had interrupted two people’s time between him and Yukinos.h.i.ta, so she felt she had to do something or else she would feel guilty.

Lastly, she didn’t want to become a burden and wanted to do something, especially when Shishio had let her stay in his room. She knew that for him, it was hard work for him to sleep with a beautiful girl like her without trying to do anything. She felt she had to wholeheartedly serve him as long as she was in this country.

If Rita had met Sorata and not Shishio, her att.i.tude might be different. She might not care about what others feel and only do what she wants to do since she knows her beautiful appearance would give her a lot of advantages in her life, especially toward a virgin and unpopular boy.

Even if her att.i.tude was s.h.i.t, those boys, like Sorata, would do their best to please her.

However, she couldn’t do that with Shishio since she knew if she did that, he would be thrown out.

Shishio didn’t know what Rita was thinking, but somehow he could tell what Yukinos.h.i.ta was thinking.

What Yukinos.h.i.ta wanted to say before, she felt that she had seen herself on Rita before.

In the past, Yukinos.h.i.ta thought she would never fall for this b.a.s.t.a.r.d. If she had to marry someone, she would marry someone who would only love herself, yet in the end, she fell for this b.a.s.t.a.r.d, and she also fell helplessly that she even dared to cast her family away for him.

Rita’s previous words, which told Yukinos.h.i.ta that she wouldn’t fall for Shishio no matter what, made Yukinos.h.i.ta wonder whether Rita could stay strong with that conviction since the more challenged, the more excited this beast was.

Soon after, they arrived in Meiji Jingu Gaien.

After Shishio parked his car, Rita quickly came out and marveled.

“Wow, this place is so beautiful!”

If one asked what the most noticeable part of this place was, naturally, the trees that form a 300m-long boulevard between Gaienmae and Aoyama-Itchome stations.

The lines of trees were so beautiful that one couldn’t look away.

“You came at the wrong time. If you come at the end of November, the scenery will be even more beautiful?” Yukinos.h.i.ta said.

“Really?” Rita became curious.

“During that time, the leaves of the trees will turn golden.”

“Golden?!” Rita was surprised, then asked, “By the way, what kind of trees are they?”

“Ginko tree.” Yukinos.h.i.ta looked at Shishio, who was taking out shooting tools, and asked, “Shishio, what’s the meaning of the Ginko tree?”

“Longevity.” He answered while answering the text from Hikigaya and Yui.

“Longevity?”

“When Meiji Restoration, one of the most important events in this country, the Emperor lived in this area, so those Ginko trees were planted since everyone wished for the Emperor to live a long life.”

“Oh…” Rita was surprised and asked, “So this country is quite similar to England, huh?” The two countries had their royalty. The only difference was probably their love toward the majesty since even if those trees had been planted a century ago, she could feel the reverence, loyalty, and unshakable love of the subjects toward their emperor.

It was something that she couldn’t comprehend, but she respected them.

“Hey.”

“Yo.”

Hikigaya waved his hand as he walked toward their direction, but then he saw Rita and was dumbfounded.

“h.e.l.lo, my name is Rita Ainsworth. I will be following up with you today.”

“I… I can’t speak English…” Hikigaya answered in a broken language.

“……..” Shishio and Yukinos.h.i.ta.

“Senpai, why are you standing dumbfounded? Hurry up and help me.”

“Oh-Oh!” Hikigaya quickly escaped and approached Shishio. When he was by his side, he couldn’t help but nudge his side and said, “Have you reached your claws to an international girl? Are the girls in this country can’t satisfy you anymore?”

“……..” Shishio.

“Still, it’s funny to see you nervous like that,” Shishio said with a smirk.

“……” Hikigaya blushed and said, “Oh, shut up. I really can’t speak English.”

Shishio smiled, then thought for a moment. “Now, I can’t wait to see how Yui-senpai is going to talk. She is more stupid than you, after all.”

“…you’re such a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, but I can’t say I am not curious.”

“You two…” Yukinos.h.i.ta looked at the two helplessly.

Rita smiled and asked, “Should I do that?”

“Sure. Sure. Tease that girl until she cries.”

“…….”

Yukinos.h.i.ta, Rita, and Hikigaya thought that this guy was such a s.a.d.i.s.t.

Then, soon, as expected, Yui came, and she dressed beautifully with a bright and cheerful smile on her face.

“Yukinon! Shishiron! Hikki! Yahallo~!”

Yui greeted all of them with a smile, but then she was dumbfounded when she saw a foreigner.

“h.e.l.lo, my name is Rita Ainsworth. Nice to meet you.”

“Ah, um, I… I can’t speak English.”

“……..”

Shishio and Yukinos.h.i.ta looked at Hikigaya at the same time.

Hikigaya sighed and hoped that Yui wouldn’t do the same thing as him since it made him seem stupid.

—

“Sorry, sorry. Stop hitting me, Senpai.”

Yui bulged her cheeks like a hamster as she hit Shishio with teary eyes. She realized that she had been pranked by Shishio, and it made her annoyed!

While she knew she was stupid, there was no need to tease her like this, right?”

“Okay, okay. Let’s quickly shoot a movie. We don’t have much time.”

Their schedule was extremely limited.

They only used three days to shoot all the scenes for their movie.

The first day was at the school, the second day was at Meiji Jingu Gaien, and the third, which was the last, was at Nezu Shrine. They couldn’t waste any time since the cultural festival would be held soon. They were also busy with the preparation for their cla.s.s too, so they had to do everything with their limited time.

“I-I know…” Still, Yui puffed her cheeks, showing that she was still annoyed.

“Yui-san, come on.”

“Oh-oh!” When Yukinos.h.i.ta called her, Yui quickly became serious.

Shishio shook his head helplessly, wondering why there was a difference between their treatment.

Anyway, their shooting started.

Neither Yui nor Shishio talked, but they walked around the street like they were on a date. Even if they didn’t say anything, one could see they were lovers.

Yukinos.h.i.ta, who had been taught how to use a camera better, also followed them, shooting all the best shots.

“Cut!”

“Fuh…” Yui sighed in relief.

“You did a good job, Senpai,” Shishio praised.

“Tha-Thank you…” Yui blushed, but she felt so happy.

Rita, who was by Yukinos.h.i.ta’s side, looked at the two for a while, then asked, “Is this okay?” She wasn’t blind and could see what Yui felt.

“It’s okay.”

“But…”

“I believe in him.”

“I see…” Rita looked at Yukinos.h.i.ta, wondering how Shishio could make this cold girl fall for him so hard. She looked at Shishio and became more curious about him.

Their time was limited, so they shot several scenes on Meiji Jingu Gaien.

Naturally, it also included the most important scene.

The scene didn’t include Yui, only Shishio.

“Sit there! Put a melancholy expression on your face as if you miss your loved one.” Yukinos.h.i.ta instructed Shishio, who sat on the bench with a railway as his background.

“You?”

“…you can imagine any girl you want.”

“But you’re the one in front of me.”

“I guess it can’t be helped since you love me so much,” Yukinos.h.i.ta sighed, but she blushed.

‘Can you flirt in another place?’

Hikigaya, Yui, and Rita stared at them helplessly.

“Okay, okay! Be ready!” Yukinos.h.i.ta blushed and raised her voice slightly.

“Yes, yes.

“Use yes once!”

“Yeees!”

“Don’t drag it!”

“Can you two flirt later?” Hikigaya was speechless since the damage from their flirting was too much.

“I will treat you to pizza later, Senpai.”

Hikigaya shut his mouth and did his best on his job.

“……” Yui and Rita.

Yukinos.h.i.ta sighed, then said, “Be serious.”

“I know.” Shishio nodded and brewed his emotion, thinking the person he loved was so far away, and he couldn’t see her.

Yukinos.h.i.ta stared at his face for a moment and was mesmerized, but she knew that she couldn’t be dumbfounded and quickly reminded him.

“Action!”

As he sat on the bench, waiting for his girlfriend, he looked far away in the distance. From his gaze, it seemed he saw something. Something so close, yet so far.

However, at that moment, everyone on Meiji Jingu Gaien couldn’t look away from him and was also caught in the sadness that this young man felt.

Yukinos.h.i.ta took a deep breath, then shouted, “Cut!”
