He has top grades, a sharp mind, and is not a stereotypical bookworm; he is elegant and handsome, dressed neatly, and has outstanding athletic talent.

Despite his excellence, he has a mild personality and is not like other boys his age who like to show off.

In class, he rarely raises his hand to answer questions, but when called upon, his answers are always perfect. His speeches in debate class are clear, logical, and convincing, and his performance in home economics class is impeccable.

Those who know him will agree that this kind of child is the type who is naturally outstanding. Even if left to his own devices, he will continue to work hard, get into the best universities, and become an elite in society.

If it weren't for his poverty... the number of girls wanting to date Fujiwara Izaya would double.

※※※※※

The central courtyard of Kitagawa Academy is a tacitly recognized romantic spot for couples by both students and teachers, and it is always filled with the sweet and sour smell of love.

The spacious area enclosed by four school buildings is planted with cherry, oak, and ginkgo trees; the small flowerbeds contain crabapple, azalea, and hydrangea, as well as a large pond and a pavilion for resting.

A strong gust of wind blew in from between the Yotsuya high-rises, ruffling Fujiwara Izaya's hair.

Several crows flew overhead, from tree to tree, and some even flew down to the pond to drink. Suddenly, a large, fat orange cat jumped out from nowhere, startling the crows into taking flight in a panic.

One of the crows, with particularly black plumage and an exceptionally large size, noticed Fujiwara Izaya and intended to fly over.

"Caw caw (Young Master)!"

"roll!"

So the crow flew away.

Fujiwara Izaya walked towards the fat orange cat. The big fat cat showed no remorse for its domineering act of scaring away the crows. It lay on the edge of the pond, leisurely sunbathing.

I glanced at my watch; it was exactly twelve o'clock.

"Gilgamesh, come here!"

The orange cat opened its eyes a crack, glanced at Fujiwara Izaya, and then closed them again with disdain.

This cat is the biggest stray cat in the school. Everyone calls it "Sardine," but Fujiwara Rinya prefers to call it "Golden Glitter" because the name matches its fur color.

Moreover, both Gilgamesh and it have physical defects; one is missing an arm, and the other is missing two testicles. They are quite a match, aren't they?

"I'm calling you, little fatty!" Fujiwara Izaya squatted down and flicked its ear with his finger in an annoyed manner.

The orange cat opened its eyes and glared at him fiercely, meowing.

Since the coin was right under it, Fujiwara Rin wasn't in a hurry to take it, and simply replied, "Meow."

He can communicate with any living being.

This fat cat was saying "Don't touch me," and his reply was "I'll touch you."

The orange cat instantly became alert, wagging its tail: "Meow?"

"Meow?" Fujiwara Izaya mimicked its tone.

The orange cat got angry: "Meow!"

"Meow!"

Fujiwara Rin was not to be outdone.

The meowing continued, and the atmosphere became tense.

"Sardine" arched its back, and taking advantage of Fujiwara Izanagi's inattention, it stretched out a claw and tore a small hole in his trouser leg before committing the crime and escaping.

On a small patch of collapsed lawn, a 500-yen coin reflects the bright spring sunshine.

This fat cat has a terrible temper... Fujiwara Izaya reached out and picked up the coin, thinking that there would definitely be another victim whose pants leg would be torn by it.

Holding the 500 yen coin he found, Fujiwara Izaya went to the cafeteria and bought a 500 yen tonkatsu set meal. He also spent an extra 100 yen on a lemonade. He sat down by the window where he could get sunlight and ate while looking out at the courtyard.

The peaceful campus life, the scenery as far as the eye can see, is just like any other spring day.

The sky was overcast with clouds, cherry blossoms were in full bloom in the courtyard, and a cute girl who looked like a newborn was walking along the road with her textbooks in her arms. On the windowsill of the classroom across the way, there was a small glass bottle with hydrangeas in it.

From the tables in the two aisles next door, bursts of laughter could be heard from time to time. It was a group of familiar girls looking at their phone screens and discussing where to go shopping that evening.

Fujiwara Izaya noticed a particularly eye-catching girl among them, who kept glancing in his direction, as if she was paying special attention to his actions.

Her eyes were brown, and her face was delicate and beautiful.

With her long orange hair and clear, bright eyes, she looks incredibly cute. Her delicate, flawless skin reminds Fujiwara Izaya of a pink guinea pig.

Although he thought she was very beautiful, Fujiwara Izaya only glanced at her appearance before focusing on his meal.

There are so many beautiful girls in the world; he can't just stare at them all.

After lunch, I went back to the classroom for a nap. The afternoon classes started at 1:30. The two classes passed quickly, and before I knew it, it was time to go home.

Most schools in Japan dismiss students early in the afternoon, with classes ending at 3:30 p.m., leaving the remaining time for students to participate in club activities.

Kitagawa Academy has a rule that requires students to participate in club activities at least once a week.

Fujiwara Izaya is a member of the Paranormal Research Club, which holds activities every Friday.

Today is Tuesday, so I can go straight home.

After the bell rang, Fujiwara Izaya packed his bag and left the classroom, heading towards the courtyard.

"Go! Go! Go!"

Baseball team members, dressed in sportswear and lined up in neat rows, ran past him, shouting loud slogans.

This energy-consuming lifestyle makes one want to stand at attention and bow in respect to them.

As a staunch energy-saving advocate, Fujiwara Rin would never do such wasteful things.

Take a chestnut.

He can perform well in PE class and get a perfect score, but to lead the school's baseball team to dominate Koshien is pure wishful thinking!

I read a book in the courtyard for a while, and then arrived at the vending machine in the school building at four o'clock.

A girl is buying something.

She didn't know if there was a malfunction, but no goods came out after she put in the coins, which made her so angry that she kicked the vending machine hard.

"boom--"

The vending machine shook slightly, and a gray footprint appeared on its pristine white surface.

Japanese high school girls are all so violent...

After she left, Fujiwara Izaya looked at the third shelf in the vending machine; there were a total of four cans of Pepsi.

The price is 120 yen per can, including tax.

4点05分,塞了枚500円硬币进去,四罐可乐外加2个10円硬币外加一张兑奖券一同掉落出来。

I opened the can and took a big gulp of the ice-cold cola.

"call--"

After letting out a satisfied sigh, Fujiwara Izaya picked up the prize ticket and looked at it. It showed that he could redeem a prize of 5 yen with this ticket.

It's truly a jackpot with a 5 in 10 chance of winning; that's quite generous.

I made a small profit and I'm in a great mood.

Since activating the system, Fujiwara Izaya has accumulated over 800 million yen through exorcisms, and the money he earns or saves from his two daily tasks has exceeded 1000 million yen...

So could you add a few more daily tasks?

This kind of simple and fun task is so easy that Fujiwara Izaya could play it all day without getting bored!

He stuffed the remaining three cans of Pepsi into his backpack, called Seiji Ikeda, left the school, and took the train from Yotsuya Station to Kagurazaka.

Chapter 7. The Little Priest Only Wants to Make Money

The Kagurazaka area is close to Shinjuku.

This small and elegant neighborhood is filled with quaint cobblestone streets, trendy shops, French schools, and French restaurants, earning it the nickname "Little Paris of Tokyo."

Historically, this place was frequented by many geisha. If you're lucky enough, you might still be able to witness the few remaining geisha attending a banquet in the quiet alleyways.

Fujiwara Izaya, an unlucky guy who can't draw an SSR, came several times but still couldn't see the geisha.

After exiting Kagurazaka Station, I walked along Kagurazaka Avenue for more than ten minutes until the Zenkokuji Gate, with its bright red main color, came into view.

From a distance, Fujiwara Izaya saw Ikeda Seiji chatting with a girl at the gate. He stopped and waited at a distance.

The girl was wearing Beichuan's uniform, had wheat-colored skin, and short hair that was neatly tied back with hair clips.

"Hey, Fujiwara," Ikeda Seiji spotted him and waved, "Come here, let me introduce you to a beautiful girl."

Fujiwara Izaya then came to the two of them.

"This is Riho Koike, a shrine maiden at Akasaka Shrine," Seiji Ikeda introduced, pointing to the short-haired girl. He added, "She and I have been best friends since we were little."

Akasaka Shrine is located in Kagurazaka, and the straight-line distance between it and Zenkokuji Temple is only 500 meters.

“So you’re Ikeda-kun’s childhood friend,” Fujiwara Izaya smiled and greeted the short-haired girl. “Hello, I’m Fujiwara Izaya, from Asakusa Shrine.”

Koike Riho waves: "Hello, Fujiwara-kun."

That smile seemed to be telling him not to feel awkward, that everyone was a friend. In today's indifferent society, it's rare to see such a friendly smile, so Fujiwara Izaya smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries with her.

During the conversation, I learned that she was a student in Class B of the first year at Kitagawa Academy, and was a freshman who enrolled this year.

He looks kind of familiar...

Fujiwara Izaya sized her up for a few moments, then tentatively asked, "At lunchtime today, were you having lunch with a girl with long orange hair?"

"Oh, you mean Asuka? She and I are both in Class 1-B." Koike Riho chuckled. "You're asking about this, senpai? Do you have feelings for Asuka? Should I help you talk to her? I'm actually going shopping with her tonight, senpai, why don't you come along..."

"Just asking casually."

Fujiwara Izaya interrupted her directly.

"Alright then, call me anytime if you need anything." Koike Riho smiled understandingly.
