Tokyo: Simulation Begins with the Big Sister Next Door

Especially when Ms. Hayano walked down from the podium while lecturing, her legs, encased in flesh-colored stockings, moved gently, and the curves outlined by her bodycon fishtail skirt appeared even more graceful.

Anze Liang subconsciously thought that, according to Hayano-sensei's habits in the simulation, at this moment, under the bodycon fishtail skirt, there was probably nothing but flesh-colored stockings clinging to her skin...

If it were someone with a "happy-in-the-moment" personality, they probably would have done something like that in class.

Chapter 42: An Inappropriate Shield

The morning passed quickly.

As the bell rang, Anze Liang, who felt like his bones were about to rust from sitting for so long, got up and stretched a bit. He declined the invitation from the students in front and behind him to enjoy their bento boxes under the cherry blossom tree, and then went to the cafeteria alone.

An Zeliang ordered a chicken cutlet rice set meal and a bottle of Coke. He chose a corner seat, took out his phone, and started eating while scrolling through short videos.

The cafeteria was crowded, with people passing by with trays every now and then, and some even sitting directly opposite him.

An Zeliang looked up and was slightly taken aback.

"President?"

Sitting opposite him was the president of the psychology research club he had joined—Rin Hoshimiya.

Rin Hoshimiya ate her meal quite naturally, and even when her eyes met Anze Ryo's, she only blinked and did not show much change in expression.

"Is there something you need, President?" An Zeliang asked, wiping his mouth.

At this moment, Hoshimiya Rin's reaction remained as aloof as when they first met.

She doesn't show her teeth when chewing food, which gives her the air of a noble young lady.

She swallowed the food in her mouth and said slowly, "High school girls, unless they are particularly unattractive, will have some suitors at school. And high school boys, who are going through puberty, are prone to frequently showing courtship behavior to the opposite sex due to hormone stimulation. They don't know or even understand this, which is a problem for girls who just want to study."

"..."

An Zeliang didn't say anything, he just took a bite of chicken cutlet and watched her silently.

Rin Hoshimiya noticed Ryo Yasuzawa's gaze, raised her head, and met his eyes again:

"Simply put, I don't like being pursued. It bothers me a lot. As a high school student, I have no desire to be in a relationship and just want to focus on my studies."

"Moreover, in my opinion, dating during high school is a very unwise thing to do, and it is a misjudgment caused by hormones."

"According to statistical data, the probability of a relationship that starts in high school leading to marriage is less than five percent."

"This further proves how unwise it is to date in high school. If a relationship is destined to have an unhappy ending from the beginning, then such a relationship is meaningless."

"I am extremely cautious in this regard."

After calmly explaining, Hoshimiya Rin put a mouthful of rice into her mouth and chewed it slowly.

An Zeliang swallowed the soft chicken cutlet he was chewing and said, "So, the president is using me as a shield now?"

Hearing this, he gave An Zeliang's abdomen and biceps a strange look. "Among my suitors, there are quite a few sports talents. Student number three's body is obviously not the kind of shield that can stop them."

"I don't want to be disturbed during lunch today."

Then, Hoshimiya Rin calmly added a sentence, her usually aloof expression showing a rare hint of unease, as if she had something on her mind.

“Actually, I don’t like being disturbed either,” An Zeliang said calmly.

At this moment, because of Hoshimiya Rin's identity and appearance, many eyes were focused on the two of them.

"Huh? That looks like Hoshimiya-kun?"

"Is she having dinner with that guy?"

"It seems so, they were just chatting a moment ago."

"It's unbelievable that the aloof Hoshimiya-senpai would eat with a boy. I always thought she hated boys."

"I don't understand. I've invited Hoshimiya-senpai so many times, but she's always refused. It's so frustrating! I'm not much worse than that guy, so why him? He's such an enviable person!"

"He's not even that good-looking, so why does Hoshimiya-san want to eat with him?"

One of the boys was biting his chopsticks, looking very resentful, and his words were full of envy and jealousy.

The girl sitting next to her rolled her eyes and couldn't help but complain, "Come on, there's a limit to narcissism. Can you please go look in the mirror? That guy is way more handsome than you. You're not even half as good-looking as him."

Then another girl chimed in, "That's right, and that Anze is not only good-looking, but also an excellent student."

"I think they are a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman."

"Exactly! I don't think Hoshimiya Rin is good enough for Ansawa-kun!"

The girls had a completely different opinion.

As the crowd discussed, in a corner, a boy stared at An Zeliang with a gloomy expression, his eyes filled with jealous anger.

He couldn't understand why Anzawa Ryo, who was already entangled with his crush Nakano, was now hooking up with the school's most popular girl, Hoshimiya Rin.

Why do all the pretty girls swoon over this damn guy?!

Thinking back to how his friends had failed to teach An Zeliang a lesson last time, he felt even more frustrated.

"If I can't deal with you outside of school, then I'll ruin your reputation here!"

Murakami Takashi thought to himself, took out his phone, and secretly took a picture of Ansawa Ryo and Hoshimiya Rin talking and eating.

He then rushed out of the cafeteria without even finishing his meal.

After making some inquiries, they quickly found Nakano Aoi eating lunch with her female classmates under a cherry blossom tree.

"Nakano-kun! I've finally found you!"

Takashi Murakami jogged over, panting heavily.

"Murakami-kun? Is something the matter?"

Seeing that Murakami Takashi looked very anxious, Nakano Aoi put down her bento box and politely asked him what was wrong.

"I just saw Anze Liang and Xing Gong having lunch together in the cafeteria, chatting and laughing. They might be secretly dating, so I took a picture. Look!"

Murakami Takashi hurriedly took out his phone and opened the photo he had just taken, his expression unconsciously showing a hint of excitement.

I can almost picture Nakano Aoi getting angry and confronting the scumbag.

"Eh?!"

Nakano Aoi was incredibly surprised and immediately focused her attention on the photos taken by Murakami Takashi.

Although the photo doesn't show the two people chatting and laughing as Takashi Murakami described, it's still clear that they are interacting.

"It really is Anze and Hoshimiya!"

Nakano Aoi felt a sense of novelty and joy.

Anze has become familiar with the club president so quickly!

"Nakano-kun, you...you're not angry?"

Takashi Murakami was a little confused.

Why get angry? Isn't this a good thing?

Nakano Aoi was a little confused. "I was worried that their personalities might not get along, since Hoshimiya always has such a cold expression. But now it seems that they get along very well, so I'm much more relieved and happy."

"???"

Takashi Murakami was completely dumbfounded and immediately lost his composure.

He didn't understand where he went wrong.

I don't understand how that bastard can date two pretty girls at the same time, and how Nakano-kun, who is being cheated on, isn't even angry!

Damn it! What kind of skills does that bastard have?!

Chapter 43: Chizuru's Phone Call

After finishing lunch and returning to the classroom, An Zeliang glanced at the time; there were still twenty minutes left before the lunch break ended.

Feeling a bit tired, he simply lay down on the table and took a nap.

But to my surprise, I slept straight through until the end of the first math class.

The second class is physical education.

The students in the class had all changed into their sportswear and were eager to try it out.

Some students were even playing soccer in the back row.

Seeing this, An Zeliang stretched and prepared to go to the changing room to change his clothes.

But before he could even leave the classroom, the homeroom teacher walked in and announced some bad news—today's physical education class had been cancelled.

The classroom immediately erupted in discussion among the students.

In Japan, it's quite rare for physical education classes to be taken up by other subjects.

Therefore, the students in the class showed deep confusion.

It wasn't until the homeroom teacher explained that the teacher who took over the physical education class wasn't a teacher of other subjects, but rather a safety lecture organized by the police.

Hearing this reason, the students were even more confused.

"Huh? Why is there a safety lecture all of a sudden?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because there have been more perverts on the tram lately?"

"That doesn't warrant taking up PE class time for a lecture, does it? Perverts on trains are actually quite common, aren't they?"

"Maybe she's a female pervert who specifically targets handsome male high school students?"

One boy crossed his arms and pretended to be panicked, saying, "If that's really the case, I think it's very necessary to hold this safety lecture. We boys also need to protect ourselves when we're out!"

Seeing the boy's actions, the classroom erupted in laughter, filled with a joyful atmosphere.

After listening, An Zeliang was also thinking about it. He guessed that the safety lecture was most likely related to the recent serial murder case.

On the podium, the homeroom teacher was explaining some precautions for the safety lecture that would be held later.

Meanwhile, An Zeliang was lost in thought in the audience.
