The strongest high school student in Japan

"Okay, if this is the price I have to pay, I will do it." Mogami Jun answered seriously, "I will definitely be first in the next school exam. Please congratulate me in advance."

After saying that, he walked out of Teacher Yichuan's office.

While closing the door, he vaguely heard the teacher making a phone call.

Teacher Yichuan has already started taking action.

Thank you, teacher, he said secretly in his heart.

24, get along

After saying goodbye to Teacher Ikawa, Jun Mogami returned to the classroom. It was about to start class and the students had already gathered in groups of three or four.

"Chun!"

As soon as he sat down, his good friend Kenji Sugishita suddenly came over and patted him on the shoulder.

"What's the matter?" Jun Mogami was a little surprised.

"I heard that you came to school with a senior girl today." Sugishita Kenji asked uneasily, "Is it that Sagihara-senpai?"

"Ah... yes." Mogami Jun nodded gently, as if all this was natural. "What's wrong?"

"Jun, I have no right to interfere in your private life. It's your freedom to get close to any girl you want. I might even be happy for you..." Sugishita Kenji shook his head, somewhat disapproving of what Mogami Jun did. "But this Sagihara-senpai is really different. I've already asked you about it, right? You heard about it that day. Why are you still looking for trouble?"

There was a hint of anxiety in his expression, as if he was worried about Mogami Jun.

If we look at it from the common sense of keeping oneself safe, what he is worried about is indeed very reasonable.

And trouble really came to me...

But this time, Jun Mogami didn't want to play it safe.

"Kenji, thank you for your concern, but I know what to do with Senior Sagihara, so please don't bother me. Don't worry, I won't let myself suffer any loss." He tactfully rejected Kenji Sugishita.

Mogami Jun didn't want to tell him about the matter of Sagihara-senpai's father, so he could just handle it by himself. There was no need to drag down his friends.

"You... are too confident sometimes. I think you will suffer the consequences sooner or later." Seeing Mogami Jun's resolute words, Sugishita Kenji was speechless and could only smile bitterly, "Don't regret it when the time comes!"

"By the way, where did you hear this news?" Mogami Jun suddenly thought of a question, "Does anyone else know about this?"

"I'm not the only one who knows about this." Sugishita Kenji couldn't help laughing again. "You guys walked in through the school gate so openly. Someone saw you a long time ago. Many people spread the news."

"Is that so..." Mogami Jun murmured.

Although he had known that gossip in school spread quickly, it was still a bit unexpected that it spread so quickly. Mogami Jun thought that although he was well-known in school because of his good grades, he would not become the talk of the school so quickly. Moreover, he was only a freshman in high school, so there would not be so many people paying attention to him.

So... is it Sagihara-senpai?

why?

Theoretically speaking, Senior Sagihara, who has been hanging out in the library all the time, should be even less noticeable than herself. Even though she is disliked by many people because of her father's affairs, she shouldn't become a hot topic so quickly, right?

Is it that the students in our school are too idle, or is there some other hidden story?

Or, is there anything else about Senior Sagihara that people are keeping an eye on?

Honestly, there was too little information for him to figure it out.

Just at this moment, the bell for class finally rang, and the Chinese teacher walked into the classroom with a textbook in hand. The originally lively classroom became silent.

Mogami Jun stopped talking to the people around him and started to concentrate on the class. He swept away all the selfish thoughts in his mind and listened to the lessons with full concentration.

He has always had the ability to concentrate and can focus on what he wants to do for a short period of time. Only by relying on this concentration can he maintain good study habits and grades.

Since he had already promised the teacher that he would get the top grade in the school, he naturally would not take it as a joke. He would go all out to fulfill this promise.

The teacher helps him and he brings honor to the teacher, which can be considered part of the "deal".

His father's expectations, his teacher's teachings, his own life...all these pressures are on him. For him, maintaining good grades and getting admitted to the University of Tokyo is the most reliable and stable way to succeed.

But at least at this moment, he was learning for the sake of learning, without any impure purpose, simply to acquire knowledge.

Learning itself is a pleasure.

===============================================

After school, he went straight to the senior high school building and waited downstairs.

According to the previous agreement, Senior Sagihara would meet him here - mobile phones were prohibited in the school, and Sagihara Shion also abided by this rule, so they had to agree on a meeting place in advance.

Although it was already time to go home from school, the senior high school students had to work much harder after all, and only a few of them walked out of the teaching building at the moment.

Under the sight of Jun Mogami, Sagihara Shion lowered her head slightly, paid attention to the surrounding situation, and walked to Jun Mogami's side.

After a whole day, she is now much calmer than before, but one can still see the tension in her expression.

This tension came from both my father and the boy in front of me...

"Good afternoon... Jun-kun." Senior Sagihara greeted and bowed at the same time, even at this time.

"Senior, I've already asked for you..."

As soon as Mogami Jun opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Sagihara Shion.

"Jun-kun, let's find a place where there's no one. Here..." Sagihara Shion said awkwardly. "It would be bad if people spread gossip about us."

I'm sorry, senior. Actually, many people have been spreading news about us, but no one has told you... Jun Mogami said in his heart.

Of course, in order to save face for Senior Sister Sagihara, he didn't say it out loud.

"Okay, then come with me, we can talk while walking." He turned around and left with Sagihara Shion.

He took Sagihara Shion directly to the location pointed out by teacher Ikawa Satoshi.

Connecting the senior teaching building and the young teachers' apartment is a path with trees and flower beds. There are two pavilions in the middle of the path, which can be regarded as the "famous scenic spot" in the school. Every day, young couples in the school stop there. I don't know how many good things they have witnessed. Mogami Jun took her through the path and came to a three-story Western-style building.

As he walked, he told Sagihara Shion about his "negotiation" with Teacher Ikawa.

"Senior, if the next female teacher agrees, you can live here temporarily in the future." He raised his hand and pointed to the small building surrounded by vines.

"The environment is really nice..." Looking at the green grass around, Sagihara Shion said in a low voice. "I don't know... I don't know if I can get permission."

"I believe that as long as you work hard, you will be able to impress the teacher, not to mention that I and Mr. Yichuan will speak well of you."

At this moment, a man and a woman walked out of the apartment.

The man was naturally the serious-looking teacher Yichuan, while the woman had a slightly childish short bangs hairstyle and wore a pair of glasses. She was not very tall, with fair and delicate skin, and looked almost no different from a high school student.

Compared with the tall teacher Yichuan, the contrast is even more obvious. It seems more like uncle and niece than senior and junior.

How big is their age difference? Mogami Jun couldn't help but wonder.

Can such a teacher control students?

"Mogami, this is my junior schoolmate, Haruike Kasumi, who is currently teaching in the junior high school." Teacher Ikawa introduced the two to Mogami Jun first, then looked at Sagihara Shion and nodded in a friendly manner, "You are the Sagihara classmate, right?"

Wow, the name really lives up to the person, even the name is so cute. Mogami Jun couldn't help but complain in his heart.

She looks like someone who is easy to talk to, right? No wonder Teacher Yichuan thought of asking her for help at the beginning... There's hope.

"Yes." Sagihara Shion of course didn't know what Mogami Jun was thinking. On the contrary, she was quite nervous. "Teacher Haruike, I'm very... very sorry for making such an unreasonable request to you. If I wasn't... if I wasn't desperate, I wouldn't have made such a request. If you... if you feel embarrassed, it's okay to refuse directly. I won't blame you at all."

"Sagina-san, please... please don't say that. As teachers, we have an unshirkable responsibility to help students... After Ikawa-san told me about these things, I immediately agreed. You have suffered so much. If we stand aside and watch, then... that would be too inhumane..." At this time, Haruike Kasumi, who had been silent all the time, also spoke timidly, her voice clear and nervous. "I am very happy to help you. You can move in with me as soon as possible for a while, but... but I have a request."

"Thank you, teacher!" Sagihara Shion bowed with gratitude, almost forming a 90-degree angle. "Just make your request. I will do it even if you make ten requests, not just one."

"Don't move my personal belongings, especially those comic books, otherwise... it will... it will be very troublesome." Haruike Kasumi replied in a low voice, "I have sorted those comics into different categories. If they are messed up, it will take a lot of effort to clean them up. So... you can read them, but you have to put them back in their original places, okay?"

"Well, of course, don't worry, teacher, I will never mess up your things."

Seeing that he was being so serious but only making such a trivial request, Sagihara Shion felt a little amused and agreed immediately.

"That's great. I always feel that... Sagihara-san is a very easy-to-get-along-with person." Haruike Kasumi smiled slightly, and then extended her hand to Sagihara Shion. "Sagihara-san, don't be afraid. Although... although this world is not so beautiful, but... there is still kindness."

"Yeah!" Sagihara Shion, who was so moved that she burst into tears, immediately held the teacher's hand tightly.

Wow, they are just like two little girls in junior high school. I always feel that they get along surprisingly well. They are introverted and shy, and both have kind hearts.

Watching the interaction between these two people, Jun Mogami thought.

25. Confrontation

With Jun Mogami as witness, Teacher Haruike Kasumi and Senior Sagihara quickly got along very well. Teacher Haruike didn't even put forward any conditions and allowed Senior Sagihara to temporarily stay in the teacher's apartment where she lived.

Even though he had heard from teacher Ikawa that the junior schoolmate was easy to talk to, Mogami Jun did not expect things to go so smoothly.

This really helped a lot...

Looking at the two people having so much fun together, Mogami Jun felt relieved.

Of course, this does not mean that the matter is over. Senior Sagihara's boarding can only be kept secret for a short period of time. In the long run, the school's consent must be obtained, otherwise it will cause trouble for Teacher Chunchi.

Jun Mogami didn't want to cause Teacher Chunchi to be punished because of his own mistake.

Well, we can only take it one step at a time. At least the problem can be solved for now.

Soon, they finalized the check-in arrangements, and Jun Mogami left the apartment with senior Sagihara, who was still reluctant to leave.

Old things and a few Lingjiulong stables

"Senior, when will you bring your luggage in?" Mogami Jun asked as they walked.

"They are all left at the place I rented before." After hearing this question, the smile on Sagihara Shion's face immediately disappeared, replaced by a worried look, "Let's just forget about it..."

"You don't want all of them?" Mogami Jun was a little confused. "Senior, are you willing to give them up? They have been with you for many years."

"It's not a question of whether I'm willing to give it up or not..." Sagihara Shion shook her head, "My father has been looking for me outside, and I'm afraid he's found where I live. If that's the case, wouldn't it be a trap for me if I go over to get the things..."

"Then let's go together." Mogami Jun replied with a smile, "While there is still some time, let's quickly move all the important things back to school to avoid trouble."

"But...if I really run into him..." Sagihara Shion was still quite hesitant, "I...am really afraid of seeing him again."

"Then why are you afraid of him, senior? If you are afraid, it only means that you still admit that he can affect you." Mogami Jun looked at Sagihara Shion calmly, "Senior, you have to admit that this is Tokyo, not the wilderness. Although there may be some sneaky things at night, you still dare not do anything during the day. If you run into him, maybe it's better. It's time to make a break, isn't it? Fear will only make you think he is omnipotent. If you exclude those things, you will find that he is just a pitiful and humble middle-aged man. He has nothing in his life, right?"

Sagihara Shion was stunned.

"I don't know why, but I always find it very convincing when you say that." Finally, she said softly. "Then do as you say."

To be honest, she really couldn't bear to part with those things of hers, but she didn't want to go because she was afraid of her father. However, when this junior gave her courage, she finally dared to act.

"In that case, please hurry up and finish everything before daybreak." Mogami Jun bowed and made way for the senior.

==================================================

Because of Jun Mogami's reminder, Sagihara Shion quickened her pace and hurriedly took Jun Mogami to the place where she had rented before.

It was about two or three kilometers away from the school and we arrived there quickly.

This is an old-style one-family house made of wood. It is very old. The mottled walls give off a musty smell of rotten wood and creak in the breeze. Moss has climbed up the steps and walls, giving the gray-black house a somewhat unpleasant dark green color.

The house was divided into several compartments and rented out separately, and Senior Sagihara lived on the second floor.

They first told the landlord that they wanted to cancel the lease, and after completing the relevant procedures, Mogami Jun followed Senior Sagihara upstairs. When they stepped on the wooden steps, the steps made a miserable hissing sound, making people wonder if they were stepping on some living thing. The sound insulation was not good, and it was easy to hear the sound of the television next door and from the landlord downstairs.

It's definitely not a good place to live.

After confirming that there was no one around, Sagihara Shion carefully opened the door and walked in with Mogami Jun.

The room was very small, only about a dozen square meters, and was simply furnished with a bed, a table and a cabinet with a mirror. On the table were many pieces of manuscript paper covered with words. Apart from the dim chandelier on the ceiling, there were no trendy electrical appliances.

It is easy to see the "poor" situation of the room, but even so, one can also see the owner's good living habits. Everything is kept very clean, and even when she returned home, the senior student did not give up writing.

"You've worked so hard, Senior." After seeing the environment that Senior Sagihara has been living in, Mogami Jun could only say this.

"I know what you're thinking... You must be laughing at me for being poor, right?" Sagihara Shion smiled bitterly, "But the monthly rent here is only over 20,000 yuan, which is at least 10,000 yuan cheaper than other places nearby... Compared to this benefit, being laughed at for being poor is nothing."

"I dare not laugh at you, senior. After all, anyone who has hundreds of millions of wealth but is willing to live in a place like this is worthy of admiration." Mogami Jun answered sincerely.

"You're making fun of me again!" Sagihara Shion glared at him.

This appears to be the first time she has done something like this.

Then, Sagihara Shion walked to the bed, bent down and lifted the bed sheet, revealing several boxes under the bed.

"I have already packed my things, let's go."

After she suddenly learned that her father had been released from prison and was looking for her, she had already prepared to flee, so she had packed her things long ago. It was only because she couldn't let go of her promise to her junior that she rushed over to see him for the last time. How could she have imagined at that time that she would have such an adventure later...

Mogami Jun also walked over, then reached out and picked up the two largest suitcases, "Okay, let's go."

Because they were in a hurry, they didn't say much and just picked up the boxes and left.

Sagihara Shion carried two small boxes and walked behind Mogami Jun, looking at the tall back of her junior.
