Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 399 Despicable Lord!
Hira Sakura pushed Fushimi Shika to the school gate, and the latter said that it was enough to drop him off there, and he couldn't go any further, otherwise he would be arrested as a pervert.

"Do your best at school and strive for good grades..."

Before Fushimi Shika could finish his instructions, Hira Sakurako interrupted with a blank expression, "I didn't come to elementary school just to take the college entrance exam."

Oh right, she came to Waseda Vocational School to find Yukimura Aoi's younger sister.

This school has complete facilities and many venues for hosting national primary and secondary school club competitions. If Sunflower Sister participates in a club, there is a high probability that she will come to Waseda Vocational School to compete.

"Then I wish you find that special someone soon."

Fushimi Shika didn't remember what Yukimura Aoi's sister's name was, so he just made one up and waved for Hira Sakura to hurry up and go to school.

The latter turned and left. As Fushimi Shika watched her retreating figure, a sense of unease rose to its peak.

Can this little guy really socialize independently?
He recalled Hirako's attempt to bring a gun and a fruit knife to school, and his bad premonition grew stronger.

If Pingyingzi were to have a stressful episode and he wasn't there, she might end up bleeding on campus—and if that were investigated, he would definitely bear the main responsibility for concealing her illness. Pingyingzi is a minor and wouldn't go to jail, but he would be in serious trouble.

Since we're just killing time anyway, why don't we sneak in and take a look?

……

On the other side, Ping Yingzi stepped into the school, changed into indoor shoes on the first floor, and put the shoes in her shoe cabinet. Everything was just as she had expected.

While Minamoto no Tamako and Fushimi no Shika were out investigating the case, Hirai Sakurako was at home alone, painstakingly studying her school plan—from the route to school to her conversational skills and even her gestures and expressions, she had a complete strategy!

Minamoto no Tamako and Fushimi Shika were worrying unnecessarily, because she had no intention of making friends at all. Her purpose in coming to school was to find people, and there was no need for her to socialize too much. If her classmates isolated her, that would be even better, so that she wouldn't have to expend a lot of brain cells to talk to strangers.

That's right, Hira Sakurako's first goal in her school campaign was to successfully isolate all her classmates!

Being isolated wasn't enough. If someone thought she was easy to bully and played some excessive pranks on her, her future school life would probably be very difficult... So her second goal in her school battle was to defeat the most vicious troublemaker in the class.

The so-called "getting along well with peers" refers to getting along well in a physical sense!
This is a little-known fact she read in a book: if a newcomer to prison wants to avoid being bullied in the future, he has to fight the biggest guy in the prison and prove that he is not someone to be messed with.

Fushimi Shika confiscated her fruit knife, putting her at a disadvantage in terms of weaponry, but fortunately she was prepared—she had placed a brick in her backpack, so if a fight broke out, she could swing the backpack and smash it into the other person's face; the damage should be enough.

She had already planned her escape route. When she went to court to confront the other party, she would accuse him of indecent assault and claim that she had to act in self-defense.

As for whether the other party would tell the teacher or the parents... Ping Yingzi hadn't considered that at all.

Her concept of parents was still stuck at the stage of her alcoholic father, and her concept of teachers was basically zero; she only knew that teachers were school employees.

Right now, Ping Yingzi closed the shoe cabinet, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down. Ignoring the squeaking elementary school students beside her, she strode steadily into the teachers' office.

When I was enrolling yesterday, the teacher told me that I should go to the office first today. He led Pingyingzi into the classroom and helped her introduce herself.

The thought of facing unfamiliar adults alone made Ping Yingzi's legs go weak. All sorts of bad memories from the past flooded her mind. She thought of her father who smashed things when he was drunk, and she also thought of the neighbors who had done evil in the past. Her feelings of retreat became stronger and stronger.

The more adults there are, the scarier it is. She can't even comfort herself that more people means more safety, because she has witnessed collective evil deeds firsthand.

'Don't be afraid, Sakura, take a deep breath!'

'This is a school; the probability of a serious incident happening here is very low…'

Ping Yingzi stood at the office door, hesitant to go in. She repeatedly prepared herself mentally and dawdled for more than half an hour until the class bell was about to ring before she finally reached out and knocked on the office door.

"The door is unlocked, please come in!" came the man's voice.

Ping Yingzi pushed open the door and entered, then looked up and paused for a second in surprise.

Fushimi Shika, dressed in a formal suit and wearing glasses he'd somehow acquired, sat at his desk looking quite respectable, earnestly grading elementary school homework. The teacher sat beside him, looking at him with a lovesick expression, constantly asking Fushimi Shika how long he'd been teaching undercover, what his relationship was with his original teacher, and where he'd worked before…

Incidentally, "serving as a teacher" does not refer to a specific Mr./Ms.; it is a noun equivalent to a homeroom teacher, and can be a female teacher.

Ping Yingzi looked bewildered, wondering what this guy was doing here and when he changed jobs.
Just as she was about to ask a question, Mr. Ren stood up and greeted her, saying, "Little Sakura, don't be nervous. All the students in our class are very friendly."

After saying that, she pulled Hirako away from the office, reminding Fushimi Shika to call her after get off work before leaving.

Ping Yingzi's palms were sweaty, fearing that her teacher might suddenly fall ill, grab her little hand and give her a deathly windmill, or even stage a Sichuan opera face-changing act to spank her bottom...

Fortunately, her fears didn't come true. Mr. Ren simply led her down the corridor, opened the classroom door, and walked her to the podium—it was all so smooth and predictable that she suspected something was amiss. "Before class today, I have something to announce," Mr. Ren said loudly, gesturing for the students to quiet down, his hands on the podium, "We have a transfer student in our class. Please give them a round of applause..."

As she spoke, she turned her head and waved to Hira Sakura outside the door, signaling her to come up to the podium.

Ping Yingzi had anticipated the self-introduction segment and had prepared thoroughly. She gathered her strength, strode towards the podium, and silently repeated to herself:

The voice must be loud and clear, otherwise it will be seen as cowardice;
Your eyes must be bright and alert, otherwise you will be seen as sleazy;
Your back must be straight, otherwise you will be considered weak...

Social interactions are a battlefield of deceit and treachery, and life is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak. You must demonstrate your strength to outsiders in order to gain the necessary respect!

There were twenty or thirty elementary school students sitting below the podium. When they heard the teacher's words, they clapped obediently.

Under everyone's gaze, Ping Yingzi walked up to the podium and stood side by side with the teacher, her hands behind her back. Just from her posture, you could tell that she was incredibly strong!
"Now, please introduce yourself," Mr. Ren said with a smile.

She could tell that Ping Yingzi was very nervous; she seemed to be a shy and reserved little girl. Even adults need time to adjust to a new environment, let alone a seven-year-old child. She was probably so nervous she'd stutter or even be unable to speak…

"Hirazakura ginseng!!"

With her hands behind her back, Hira Sakura imitated a gangster's tongue flick and loudly proclaimed, "I'm the assistant to the head of the Black Dragon Group, directly under the East City Gang. I've been under their command for seven years, taken six finger-severing punishments for the boss, and personally chopped down hundreds of scumbags. The embroidery on my special forces uniform was sewn at my father's crematorium..."

"Wait, wait, wait—"

Mr. Ren said "qiaoduo madai" three times in a row. She laughed awkwardly, bent down, and asked in a low voice, "Who taught you to say these words?"

“Iron mahjong! Are you looking down on me?!” Hira Sakurako retorted loudly.

She looked around and found that her classmates were all a bunch of weaklings. The boys were all bookish nerds, and the girls were even more clueless, not even knowing what a special forces uniform was, and whispering among themselves asking what "finger-severing punishment" meant...

Too weak!

They're all just a bunch of small fry!
Only Mr. Renwei seemed to be the strongest person in the class, undoubtedly the leader. She had observed carefully that the students fell silent as soon as Mr. Renwei entered the room, demonstrating his formidable authority!
Mr. Ren's smile froze slightly. She began to suspect Ping Yingzi's family background. Maybe this girl was a yakuza heiress or something, which was why she spoke like that.

She patiently explained, "Tiemeyaya Road is a swear word, children shouldn't say it..."

Hirayuko really didn't know about this. She always thought that "tie meya lu" was an interjection or some kind of courage-boosting spell.

But since she had already said it, Hirayuko decided to see it through. Vicious people are not afraid to break the rules, and she wanted to re-establish the rules in the class. From now on, children can swear!

"Hmph, ignorant and foolish woman..."

Before Ping Yingzi could finish speaking, she was punished by her teacher and made to stand in the corridor—she couldn't even use the weapon she had prepared in advance, because her teacher made her stand with her schoolbag on her head as punishment.

Ping Yingzi wanted to resist, but the teacher threatened her with 'expulsion,' so she had no choice but to give in and stand there like a wooden stake outside the door.

The elementary school students by the window peeked out, curiously observing the transfer student who was being punished to stand as soon as he entered the classroom, and whispered among themselves:

What did she mean by that?

"Baka! You don't even know this..."

"Hey...don't you think she's cute?"

……

Ping Yingzi ignored him. She had a brick in her schoolbag, which was pressing painfully against her forehead, leaving her with no energy to think about anything else.

Footsteps came from the other side of the corridor. Hira Sakurako's eyes darted around, and she peeked out. It was Fushimi Shika who had come.

He approached, put his hands on his hips, and stood in front of Ping Yingzi, shaking his head and making a 'tsk tsk tsk' sound like Tom the cat.

"What?" Hira Sakurako was annoyed, feeling that Fushimi Shika was watching her embarrass herself. "What are you doing here?"

"Never mind that, I have a plan," Fushimi Shika said with a 'just as I expected' look on his face. "It's only been half an hour, how did you end up like this?"

"My teacher threatened me, saying I'd be expelled if I didn't behave," Hira Sakura thought to herself with resentment. "What a despicable person!"
