Tokyo: I'm bound to the evil women!

They came down quickly, and it didn't seem like they randomly flipped through anything.

Fujiwara Matsu's gaze fell on Ichinomiya Satsuki, who was coming downstairs around the same time as Chiya Mio.

"Fujiwara, before I came, I drew a fortune stick, and it came out as very auspicious."

Satsuki Ichinomiya's voice rang out, and she seemed to say something very strange.

Upon hearing her words, the people in the room reacted in various ways. Fujiwara Matsu frowned, looking puzzled, and stared intently at her.

Great luck? Did the analysis show that I've enhanced my luck? But drawing lots? That doesn't seem like something she would do.

Although she didn't know much about the reason for her draw, Fujiwara Matsu felt she shouldn't have revealed herself like that.

Moreover, he should have restrained his reactions in front of the other two.

"Um?"

He gave her a look that said, "Why are you suddenly bringing this up?" and stared at her intently.

Satsuki Ichinomiya's gaze remained fixed on him. After a moment, a fleeting look of frustration crossed her eyes, directed at herself.

Alright, let Chiya and Shiratori go, this won't do.

She saw it; because the two of them were there, Fujiwara Matsu's reaction was greatly affected, and she was still in a weakened state, so she couldn't tell.

Great fortune?

Chiya Misaki pondered the matter that Ichinomiya Satsuki had suddenly brought up. She knew this girl well and knew that she wouldn't bring up such a thing for no reason.

However, she had no idea what had happened between the two of them.

Does "Great Fortune" refer to drawing lots? Drawing lots? Ichinomiya lives at a shrine, right? Given her personality, she probably wouldn't believe in something like drawing lots.

There shouldn't be many auspicious divination slips, so is this a divination interpretation?

What she said to Matsu meant that he also knew about the fortune slip? So... Matsu was working at the Inari Shrine?

Next time, I'll go to the shrine and check the fortune slip for good luck.

After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Fujiwara Matsu, whose face also showed some doubt, which shattered her guesses.

Song, what's with that expression? Is this guy really acting?

Shiratori Saki looked at the three people in front of her with some confusion, but her focus was still on Fujiwara Matsu's expression. She just felt that Ichinomiya's words were a bit inexplicable, and she couldn't keep up with the three people's thinking speed.

She didn't understand, so she asked directly.

"Ms. Ichinomiya, why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

Good question, Sazaki-senpai!

Fujiwara Matsumasa was at a loss for words. At this moment, all he needed to do was follow Shiratori Saki's lead and stare at Ichinomiya Satsuki.

"The fortune slips at the shrine are usually quite accurate. Come with me to get my things, Fujiwara, I have quite a bit of luggage."

"Let Saki go and help. Saki is always very capable."

Although she was giving orders to Shiratori Saki, her gaze remained fixed on Ichinomiya Satsuki.

"I don't have much luggage."

"Having more people is always a good thing."

At this moment, Ichinomiya Satsuki's gaze shifted to Shiratori Saki, scrutinizing her from head to toe for a moment:

"it is good."

Shiratori Saki is not Chiya Mio; she is confident that even if she were present, it wouldn't have much of an impact on her.

This guy will definitely make Shiratori tell her every single word of our conversation.

As expected, things unfolded exactly as she had anticipated. Chiya Mio pulled Shiratori Saki away, and she knew what she was going to say without even looking.

"So, the compensation was just luck?"

Once she was sure the two were some distance away, she spoke in a voice only she and Fujiwara Matsu could hear:

"What do you mean? How could I possibly control something like that?"

"I never make big moves."

Ichinomiya Satsuki had already gotten the answer from Fujiwara Matsu; her guess was correct.

"Is compensation just a matter of luck?"

Fujiwara Matsu suddenly sighed, his tone seemingly somewhat helpless.

"I don't know either."

Her eyes were fixed on him, trying to discern something.

But Fujiwara Matsu's expression showed no unusual emotion; it was a mixture of irritability, confusion, and helplessness.

Does he genuinely not know? Or is the cost random?

"Huh? What are you doing?"

Chiyo's voice interrupted their conversation; she had already brought Shiratori Saki back with her.

"I asked a few questions."

Satsuki Ichinomiya spoke frankly, and Mio Chiya's gaze lingered on her for a moment before turning to look at Matsu Fujiwara.

Go quickly and return quickly.

He paused for a moment, looking up at Chiyo Mio:

"Mizakura, are you going to stay at my house?"

"Ando and I still have some things to discuss."

He turned his head and glanced subconsciously in the direction of the storage room. Ayaka Ando's gaze did not turn away, and she remained silent for a moment.

"Yes, I'll try my best."

He stood up, and Shiratori Saki and Ichinomiya Satsuki followed him out.

Shiratori Saki quietly followed beside the two, remembering Chiya Mio's instructions.

Remember every word they said, relay their exact words to her, and go to the shrine to check the auspicious fortune slip.

"random?"

As soon as they stepped out of Fujiwara Matsu's house, Ichinomiya Satsuki spoke up. She wasn't worried that Shiratori Saki could see through her, and she knew how to keep Chiya Mio guessing as well.

"I have no idea."

Although he was secretly pleased, Fujiwara Matsu made no comment. His tone was calm and his eyes were expressionless. He couldn't reveal any flaws. He was on guard against Ichinomiya Satsuki's recap later.

His misleading had an effect; Ichinomiya Satsuki's judgment was somewhat affected, and she felt that Fujiwara Matsu also could not completely control the ability to adjust attributes.

In this way, we'll have the opportunity to observe this weakened version of ourselves every day, so we can take it slow and not rush it.

"All of them?"

Because Shiratori Saki was there... Fujiwara Matsuya knew very well that she was Chiya Mio's eyes.

He really didn't want to reveal too much to Chiya Mio.

Most of what Chiya Mio knows right now is about teaching skills. As for changing attributes, he won't use that on Chiya Mio unless it's absolutely necessary.

Any adjustment to her attributes would cause a qualitative change; it's too obvious.

Next time, let's try a different approach to improving Ichinomiya.

Maybe we can see what this guy's limits really are.

Fujiwara Matsu was also very curious about what an intelligence of 13 points meant.

Satsuki Ichinomiya's gaze fell on Saki Shiratori, and she took a deep breath.

But she overlooked one thing—

She forgot about Fujiwara Matsu; clearly, she overlooked the fact that Fujiwara Matsu was unwilling to reveal more in front of Chiya Mio.

As a result, she was also affected, and Fujiwara Matsu's ability to control her emotions and reactions became increasingly adept.

If it weren't for this weakening, I probably could have, but... that guy would never give me that chance again.

Shiratori Saki listened to their conversation with some doubt, then lowered her head to think: was it really necessary to relay these words to Chiya Mio?

But after thinking about it, she decided to write it down.

So she picked up her phone and relayed their conversation to Chiya Mio.

Chiya Misaki looked at the message sent by Shiratori Saki in her hand;

"All of them? I don't know? Random?"

"Are these their exact words?"

"What does this mean?"
