Tokyo: Restricted Tutor

Newcomer, new book, seeking follows, seeking collections, seeking tips, seeking recommendations.

Because the ingredients Kono Mariko bought were fresh, and she cooked with great care.

After taking a bite, Hojo Sakirei felt the cells in his entire body become excited.

"Sakirei-kun, Mika wants to hire you as her private tutor. May I be so bold as to ask what your fee is, Sakirei-kun?"

After a pleasant yet slightly awkward meal, Kono Mariko began her inquiry to Hojo Sakirei, wanting to know how much they needed to pay to hire him as Kono Mika's tutor.

Hearing Kono Mariko's question, Hojo Sakirei knew the time was right.

However, after looking around Kono Mika's home, Hojo Sakirei suddenly felt a little reluctant.

"How about this, according to my personal fee standard, you only need to pay 10,000 yen. After all, Mika-chan's grades are decent, and I only need to give her a little guidance."

Hojo Sakirei said.

Upon hearing this, Kono Mariko immediately frowned.

10,000 yen was indeed something she could afford.

Even if it were hundreds of thousands of yen, as long as it could make her sister more outstanding, she would be willing to pay.

However, Hojo Sakirei only wanted 10,000 yen. Was there such a cheap tutor?

The first thing Kono Mariko thought of was, could it be that Hojo Sakirei didn't know anything either and was just here to scam money?

Seeing Kono Mariko staring at him, Hojo Sakirei suddenly felt a little panicked, afraid that Kono Mariko wouldn't agree to this matter.

On the way here, Kono Mika had already discussed it with Hojo Sakirei, telling him about her image in her sister's heart, and also asking Hojo Sakirei not to say that he was her private moral teacher.

If her sister knew that Hojo Sakirei was here to teach her how to be a person, wouldn't her sister be very sad?

After all, the things she had done over the years were somewhat lacking in virtue.

She really didn't want her sister to know that she was that kind of person.

After receiving Kono Mika's request, Hojo Sakirei, of course, readily agreed.

But now, after making the decision to only ask for 10,000 yen in compensation.

Hojo Sakirei suddenly felt that he had asked for too little, causing Kono Mariko to look down on him.

Seeing this, Kono Mika, who was beside him, also knew what her sister was thinking.

"Sister, actually, Sakirei-kun and I have the best relationship at school. Sakirei-kun charges at least 50,000 yen when tutoring others."

When Kono Mika said this, her eyes drifted and avoided his gaze.

Hearing Kono Mika's words, Kono Mariko finally dispelled the doubts in her heart.

So, that was the reason for everything.

She knew her sister wouldn't lie to her, so that was how it was.

Looking at Hojo Sakirei in front of her, Kono Mariko suddenly found that this handsome boy seemed to be a really good person.

Mainly, just looking at him made her feel very comfortable.

"Sakirei-kun, how about this, the market price should be what it is. You can't let Mika freeload off you just because you and Mika have a good relationship, right?"

"Besides, this is money you earned with your own ability, why wouldn't you want it?"

"Since you charge others 50,000 yen, then Mika's tuition will also be 50,000 yen."

When Kono Mariko said this, she immediately stood up and bowed to Hojo Sakirei.

"Sakirei-kun, please forgive my rudeness just now. Because you asked for too little, I thought you didn't know anything. It was my own problem, please don't blame Mika, Sakirei-kun."

Kono Mariko's attitude was very sincere.

Seeing Kono Mariko like this, Hojo Sakirei felt somewhat touched internally, only feeling warmth in his heart.

Of course, this was also because he was standing from Kono Mika's perspective that he felt this way.

After realizing this, he also quickly stood up and bowed to Kono Mariko.

"No need to do this. Since you said so, Sister, I will listen to you!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely teach Mika well. After all, we are good friends."

"Isn't that right, Mika?"

When Hojo Sakirei said this, he looked at Kono Mika.

"Yes, yes, what Sakirei-kun said is right."

Seeing Hojo Sakirei actively cooperating with him and saying they were good friends, Kono Mika was suddenly moved.

In fact, she and Hojo Sakirei had only just met.

And before this, she even thought Hojo Sakirei was the same kind of person as her and wanted to teach him a lesson.

People like her were simply not popular among students at school.

It could be said that because of her behavior, even her classmates deliberately avoided her, and there were simply no friends.

Even though she wasn't harassed by the guild, she was still pretty much like Hojo Sakirei.

Now, Hojo Sakirei actually admitted in front of her sister that they were good friends. How could this not move Kono Mika, who had always been a loner?

Aside from being moved, she also inwardly accepted Hojo Sakirei's existence.

In her eyes, Hojo Sakirei was no longer just her private tutor, but also her first and last good friend at Sakuragi High School!

"Since we've agreed, let's sign the contract now."

Saying this, Hojo Sakirei directly picked up the contract. Kono Mariko took it, read it, found no problems, and signed it decisively.

"Kono Mika-chan, starting today, I will do my best to tutor you in your studies and academics. Please take care of me!"

Hojo Sakirei put away his copy of the contract, then bowed and said.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sakirei-kun!"

Kono Mika also bowed, and the two exchanged a smile.

By the time he returned home, it was already night.

Thinking that he still had 900 points unused, Hojo Sakirei did not hesitate to draw again.

[Congratulations to the host, you didn't draw anything.]

[Congratulations to the host, you didn't draw anything.]

[...]

[Congratulations to the host for drawing the excellent reward: Charm Fruit. After using the Charm Fruit, the host's charm in a certain aspect will be greatly enhanced, allowing you to easily gain the favor of a certain group of people.]

After spending 400 points and drawing 4 times, Hojo Sakirei finally won a draw.

However, seeing the Charm Fruit reward, Hojo Sakirei immediately found it difficult.

The last Charm Fruit allowed him to easily gain the favor of young married women, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to gain Asahi Maki's favor so easily and further their relationship.
