===Part 5===

「Fuu, I failed……. But, just what in the world Lux’s favorite food is?」

The class is over already, it’s after school.

I’m walking inside the school building once more while thinking that all this time.

Thinking that Lux might buy snack somewhere because I stole half of his chicken, I was watching Lux, but that guy was just continuing his chore works indifferently.

「No other way. This is an emergency measure but, I’ve got no choice other than searching for someone who seems like they know more……」

Thinking that, I searched around inside the school building, before finally I found that person’s figure.

「……? Princess, what’s your business?」

When I stand beside her chair, a female student look at me with an absentminded expression.

A daughter of a great financial conglomerate and the headmaster’s little sister, Philuffy Aingram, the airheaded girl.

「There is something that I want to ask frankly, do you know Lux’s favorite food?」

She is more or less Lux’s childhood friend. If it’s this girl, surely she knows one or two his favorite foods, no doubt about it.

I didn’t really want to ask because it might cause my strategy to get exposed, but well, this girl looks like she is slow on the uptake in that kinda thing, so it will surely be all right. Maybe.

「Lu-chan, like hotcake or the like, you know?」

「I, is that so? That’s unexpected……」

I who obtained answer right away feign calmness while taking memo hurriedly.

It’s not like I don’t feel that the answer is unexpected for a man, but perhaps it’s unexpectedly might be so.

「Also, things like donut, or cookie, or pie or cake too──if I remember right.」

「……Wait a second!? Come to think of it, before this you tried to make Lux eat a stupidly huge pile of hotcakes right!? Isn’t that just your favorite food!?」

I become suspicious of where this is going on and stop taking memo while asking.

「……That’s so. But when I made them, Lu-chan will also be happy and eat them. So it’s not wrong, I think.」

「…………」

I sigh inside my heart and crush the memo I had just written in my grip.

I got the hunch that this one is a miss.

Surely they weren’t something that Lux hate, but it’s dangerous to just accept this airheaded girl’s statement at face value.

「……Yosh. Now that it has come to this, I’ll ask the most likely winner!」

I resolved myself, left behing the airheaded girl who is tilting her head, and headed toward a certain place.
