My roommate turns out to be the heiress of a triad!

"Waaaah~"

Sitting in his seat, Ryoichi Sugawara looked out the window at the sparrows perched on the ginkgo branches and couldn't help but yawn because he was feeling sleepy.

The temperature in Tokyo in May was not as cold as before, but it was far from warm either.

After a night of deep dew, in this early morning before the sun has fully risen, the chill still punishes everyone who hasn't tucked their shirt into their trousers.

Yesterday afternoon, I accompanied Mayu Kujo to the shopping center, and we didn't get home by train until very late. Exhausted, we took turns showering and then went to bed early.

The three sets of underwear and two sets of loungewear cost Ryoichi Sugawara a total of over 40,000 yen.

Although the system released a task during this period with a maximum reward of 50,000 yen, [Help Kujo Mayu choose underwear].

However, because Sugawara Ryoichi didn't actually participate much, the system only gave him two Noguchi Hideyo cards as a reward, so the task was a complete loss.

You might lose money by completing tasks posted by the system. That's a really frustrating discovery.

However, while Sugawara Ryoichi may not have many other merits, his ability to adjust his mindset is one of the few.

If you include the reward he received for agreeing to live with Kujo Mayu's request for the first mission, he still made a profit overall.

Thinking like this, my mood gradually improved.

Boom boom boom boom boom.

Someone was running down the corridor, and even Ryoichi Sugawara, who was sitting by the window, could feel the vibrations.

"Setagaya! Don't run in the hallway!"

"Please forgive me! I'm so sorry!"

"Stop apologizing, then stop!"

The moment the conversation stopped, a boy with round, black-rimmed glasses, a buzz cut, and heavy breathing gripped the sliding door of the classroom with his right hand, his eyes fixed on Sugawara Ryoichi.

The other students were used to this scene. They joked with the boy a few times and then ignored him.

Once his breathing had stabilized, he walked straight to Sugawara Ryoichi's desk, grabbed his backpack, and slammed both hands on the desk, sticking his head out so close he was almost kissing him.

"What's going on, Ryoichi? I was only gone for a day, and you already have a girlfriend? And it's that Kujo Mayu!"

His voice wasn't very loud, but everyone in the class could hear it.

The reason not many classmates turned to look was because everyone in the class who needed to know already knew about it.

Yuji Setagaya was the last to know.

This guy was sitting right in front of Ryoichi Sugawara; he was a good friend he met after transferring to this high school in Tokyo.

Although the two had only known each other for a few months, that was enough time for the two boys to go from strangers to best friends.

Don't let his current appearance fool you; his Setagaya family is a pure-blooded native of Tokyo, a lineage that has been passed down from the Edo period to the present day.

As long as he doesn't start a business in the future, his family's assets will be enough for him and his brother to live on for several lifetimes with some left over.

They are worlds apart from people like Ryoichi Sugawara, who came from the countryside and were considered stinky outsiders.

Realizing he had been somewhat rude, he pulled out his seat, sat down sideways, put his backpack in the drawer, and whispered something like a thief.

"Didn't he confess to that blonde stunner, Yukiko Higuchi?"

As he spoke, he secretly pointed with his finger to Higuchi Yukiko, who was sitting in a seat not far behind him, surrounded by several girls.

She was still wearing makeup as usual, chatting with her friends about all sorts of interesting things as the center of the small group.

"How come Kujo Mayu ended up as your girlfriend? What happened between you two after I left the day before yesterday afternoon?"

"You've been hiding it well, haven't you? You're quite cunning."

"How dare you say that?"

Speaking of this, Sugawara Ryo was furious and had to give it a good talking about.

Just as Higuchi Yukiko said when she found him yesterday at noon, before he suddenly confessed to her the day before yesterday afternoon, the number of times they had communicated could be counted on one hand.

Why did the original owner of this body suddenly confess her feelings to her?

The culprit is none other than Yuji Setagaya, whose eyes are as clear as a college student's.

This guy played the King's Game with the original owner of this body, and after winning, he asked Sugawara Ryoichi to go find the most popular girl among the boys in the class and suddenly confess his feelings.

The most popular girl in their Class A was undoubtedly Yukiko Higuchi, with her blonde hair, angelic face, and devilish figure.

The saying goes, "If you're going to put on a show, go all the way."

At the urging of Yuji Setagaya, the original owner of this body used her saved living expenses to buy an expensive gift.

That thing is still lying quietly in the drawer of the TV cabinet in the rented room.

Hearing Sugawara Ryoichi's somewhat complaining tone, Setagaya Yuji scratched his buzz cut, revealing his big white teeth with a grin.

"Sorry, sorry, making that kind of request while playing the King's Game was indeed a bit too much."

But you agreed at the time, didn't you? As long as the outcome is good, that's fine.

"What's so good about it? Do you know that yesterday at noon, Yukiko Higuchi came to see me and talked about how I confessed to her and was rejected."

This led to the other students in the class finding out about it.

"I was so close to becoming the clown, you know?"

"Wow, that's quite serious."

Fortunately, Kujo Mayu became your girlfriend, otherwise...

Tsk tsk tsk.

Yuji Setagaya put himself in her shoes and thought about it.

They had kept their sudden confession a secret from the rest of the class.

However, when they were planning it, neither of them considered the possibility that the person being confessed to would spread the news, which almost caused Sugawara Ryoichi to be completely embarrassed in class.

"So, how are you going to make it up to me?"

Ryoichi Sugawara leaned back in his chair, squinted, and gave Yuji Setagaya a knowing look, waiting for his reply.

He wasn't trying to get anything from the opportunity; he simply wanted Yuji Setagaya's attitude.

After all, it wasn't this kid who forced the original owner to confess to Higuchi Yukiko.

It's just a game. Don't take it too seriously. Just back out, say some nice things, buy the other person a drink, and the matter will be resolved.

It's likely that the original owner already had some feelings for Higuchi Yukiko, and made a wrong judgment about her own strength and the other party's thoughts, so she bought the gift and confessed her feelings half-heartedly.

"Well..."

Upon hearing his words, Yuji Setagaya immediately considered what kind of emotional compensation he should give him.

Normally, you can get by with drinks and snacks, but using that trick after something like this just doesn't seem right.

How about we send him a few hardcover books from the Ginza 7-chome Bookstore? He likes books.

But then he suddenly remembered that his best friend's current girlfriend was the famous Mayu Kujou, so he immediately gave up the idea of ​​sending her the book.

He was thinking about delivering a message that might be more valuable to Ryoichi Sugawara than a hardcover book.

"I can offer you compensation, but you'll have to judge for yourself whether it's genuine or not."

"What?"

Ryoichi Sugawara was a little confused when he heard this.

Yuji Setagaya gestured for him to come closer, speaking mysteriously and in a voice so low that only the two of them could hear.

"It's about Kujo Mayu. I heard her family has some connections to the yakuza."

She herself is a yakuza princess.

"Really?! How credible is it?"

"At least 70%"
