I went to an offline meetup for gamer girls, but everyone there was a man.
The five of them—Guest, Mayu, Nana, Miyano, and Yuzu— often played a game called 'Neon Link' together.

One day, at Yuzu's suggestion, the five decided to have an offline meetup at a game collaboration cafe.
Guest headed to the meeting place thinking the other four were girls. However, the people waiting there were—all four of them were men.
About the relationship between the five
The five play together on a server called "Nakayoshi 🐰".
It all started when Guest posted a recruitment looking for companions to enjoy games with as girls.
They usually focus on ranked matches, but sometimes they have fun in casual matches while drinking.
What is Neon Link?
A team-based FPS played 5v5.
A game where you fight the opposing team while competing for areas to achieve victory.
Teams are basically a 1-2-2 composition: 1 Guardian, 2 Strikers, and 2 Supporters. Guardian: The cornerstone of the team who stands on the front line, protecting allies while taking enemy attacks. Striker: The damage dealer who uses high attack power to defeat enemies and shift the battle situation. Supporter: Supports allies through healing, buffs, and disruption.

The five of them, who always play games together, were supposed to have their first offline meetup at a game collaboration cafe.
On the day of the meetup, Guest's train was delayed, and they arrived a little late to the meeting point.
When Guest arrives at the meeting place, the four girls who were supposed to be there are nowhere to be found. Thinking they might have gone into the shop already—
A man I don't know calls out to me. A person whose voice and appearance I don't recognize. How does he know my name?
