The strongest high school student in Japan

“So that’s how it is…” Shota Matsushima finally calmed down a little, but he was shocked again a moment later, “Wait! ‘That senior’?! She’s actually a senior? I… I don’t know how to describe it, Shock! It’s a shock!”

I'm so tired, so alone

"Okay, stop being so surprised. Is there anything strange about me knowing a senior from our school?" Mogami Jun curled his lips impatiently.

"Of course it's weird, every bit of it is weird! We don't know any senior sister!" Matsushima Shota complained loudly.

Jun Mogami was about to say something, but suddenly he stopped and didn't continue this boring chat.

Because in his sight, a person appeared on the street in the distance.

She was wearing a light brown round-necked top and a white skirt with pink round spots, and holding a parasol. She was walking slowly towards this side, her long straight black hair fluttering behind her with her steps. Her whole image looked bright and pleasant yet dignified.

Perhaps because she hadn't had outdoor activities for a long time, her skin looked particularly fair and translucent, and below the knees she could see a section of her fair calves, which were swaying with the hem of her skirt.

I’m not wearing stockings... This regretful thought suddenly flashed through Jun Mogami’s mind.

"Is she that senior schoolmate...?" Matsushima Shota stared blankly at Sagihara Shion who was walking over, and asked in a low voice.

"Yeah." Jun Mogami answered casually.

"You actually know such a beautiful senior..." Shota Matsushima opened his mouth wide, as if he was dumbfounded. "Hey, while we still have some time, tell us, what is your relationship?"

"A very close friend." Mogami Jun said truthfully.

However, his answer surprised the others even more.

Then, Shota Matsushima and Kaoru Okabe looked at each other subconsciously, and then simultaneously turned their gazes to Jun Mogami.

The look was inexplicably complicated, with surprise, panic, and helplessness, but apart from these, there was actually a little bit of admiration and envy.

"You are amazing. You can hook up with so many people." Shota Matsushima could only sigh. "I used to be jealous of you sometimes, but now I don't even have the energy to be jealous..."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense like that. The seniors are here, so just say hello to them. If you show any disrespect, I won't forgive you." Mogami Jun interrupted the other person with disdain.

Then, he took a step forward and walked towards Senior Sagihara who was already walking over.

"Senior, good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, Jun-kun!"

At this time, Shota Matsushima and others also came over, and Jun Mogami introduced these people to Senior Sagihara one by one.

Meeting so many people for the first time, Sagihara Shion was a little uncomfortable, but she still endured the discomfort and greeted them one by one in a friendly and respectful manner. "My name is Sagihara Shion, please take care of me."

Because the person in front of them was a senior, and Jun Mogami had specifically told them not to be rude, Matsushima Shota and Okabe Kaoru also felt a little nervous. They returned the greeting in the same serious manner, which made Sagihara Shion feel a lot more at ease.

"Okay, now everyone is finally here, shall we go in together?" After they greeted each other, Mogami Jun suggested.

"Okay!" Everyone nodded, took out their tickets, passed the ticket gate, and entered one after another.

The venue is quite large, and the first thing everyone did when they came in was to find a seat. Fortunately, the tickets given by Zhenyou were all connected seats, and the seats were also relatively good, so it saved everyone a lot of trouble.

There were already quite a lot of people in the venue at this time, so it was quite noisy. Many people were wearing cheering T-shirts with various texts printed on them. It looked dazzling and even a riot of demons.

Young people like Jun Mogami might not care about such a chaotic and noisy scene, but Sagihara Shion, who always liked quietness and had almost no social interaction for many years, felt a little uncomfortable, and her face became even paler.

All kinds of chaotic voices mixed in her mind, making her overwhelmed. Her thoughts became confused and she felt dizzy.

"Senior, are you okay?" Jun Mogami noticed that something was wrong with Senior Sagihara, so he asked in a low voice.

"It's okay... I'm fine. It's just that I haven't been with so many people for a long time, so I'm a little uncomfortable..." Sagihara Shion smiled bitterly and shook her head, "It's okay, I'll be fine in a moment."

"You'd better take some mints to calm down."

Jun Mogami took the backpack directly from Shota Matsushima, took out a few mints from it and handed them to Shion Sagihara.

"Even this has been prepared? Jun-kun is really thoughtful..." Sagihara Shion was surprised and happy. She took the mint candy directly, peeled off the sugar coating and ate one.

As soon as the mint candy entered her mouth, the cool feeling spread through her mouth all the way into her body, eventually making her head feel a lot clearer.

"Hmm... the effect is very good! Thank you, Jun-kun, I feel much better..."

"If it works, that's great." Mogami Jun replied with a smile.

"Hey, actually it was me who proposed it..." Shota Matsushima next to him couldn't help but complain in a low voice. Of course he knew that no one would remember his contribution at this time.

At this time, there were bursts of warm cheers in the venue. Jun Mogami and the others looked towards the stage and found that someone had already gone on stage.

The three girls, wearing plaid dresses and small bows on their heads, looked very cute when they were dressed up, but Zhenyou was not among them.

Their faces were all filled with smiles and they were chatting in low voices with each other. Although no one knew what they were talking about, the audience in the venue had already been excited.

Jun Mogami took out his cell phone and checked the time. It wasn't long before the performance started.

Then, he moved his gaze away from wandering around the venue and looked at the audience in the seats everywhere.

Izumo Asana was not seen.

Logically speaking, Asana and the others should be here soon...

He picked up his phone, found Asana's number, and sent a message.

"Asana, we're here. Where are you?"

Just a moment later, a line of words appeared on the phone screen.

"Ah, sorry, I was delayed in the subway because I wasn't familiar with the way, but now we're at the door and we'll be in soon!"

Seeing that nothing unexpected happened, Mogami Jun felt relieved.

"Then I'll meet you at the door. We can talk about anything there."

"Yeah, okay! I'll also find a way to get them away." Asana responded immediately.

"OK." Jun Mogami ended this brief conversation and looked at Senior Sagihara.

"Senior, she's already here, I'll go over first...?"

"Well, remember to tell her." Sagihara Shion nodded immediately, "Jun-kun, to be honest, I'm actually a little curious. How outstanding must someone be to be praised by you like this?"

Mogami Jun's face turned red, he knew that the senior was still brooding over that mistake.

"You'll know soon, haha..." He laughed dryly, then stood up from his seat, made up an excuse with Matsushima Shota and the others, temporarily left his seat, and walked towards the door.

After Jun Mogami left, the nervous expressions of Matsushima Shota and Okabe Kaoru suddenly relaxed a lot. They were very curious just now, but because Jun Mogami was present, they couldn't ask anything, so they felt a little embarrassed.

"Senior Sagihara..." Matsushima Shouta greeted again in a low voice, "I don't think I've ever seen you before... Logically speaking, someone as beautiful as you should have some impression of you if I've seen you before, right? And... and I haven't heard anyone else mention you."

He was indeed confused about this. After all, the school was a small circle and any small incident would spread all over the city. Even if the lower grades and the upper grades did not interact much, the news would still circulate.

As a result, this senior sister was so beautiful but had no trace at all, and only suddenly appeared today, which always made him feel a little incredible.

"Um... I'm sorry, I'm not a very sociable person, so I seldom make friends and don't interact with others much, so you probably won't see me..." Of course, it was impossible for Sagihara Shion to talk about her family affairs in front of the other person, so she just answered vaguely.

"I see..." Matsushima Shouta nodded and accepted the explanation, but he couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked another question, "So, Sagihara-senpai, how did you get to know Mogami? If you don't usually interact with people, how did you get to know him?"

Sagihara Shion hesitated for a moment and did not answer immediately.

"Hey, Matsushima, you're asking too many questions." Kaoru Okabe saw how embarrassed Sagihara-senpai was, so he interrupted Matsushima Shota's questioning. "How they knew each other is none of your business, why do you have to tell you——"

"It's okay, he has no ill intentions. There's nothing you can't answer." Sagihara Shion had sorted out her thoughts by this time, and then looked at Matsushima Shota and spoke.

"I took the initiative to talk to him and got to know him."

"Ah...?" Shota Matsushima opened his mouth in surprise.

"If you still want to ask why, then I can't answer you. One night, we suddenly became connected, and it's been like this until today." Sagihara Shion continued with a friendly, bright, proud and slightly grateful smile, "So - that's probably what's called fate?"

220, Dishonesty

After leaving the venue, Jun Mogami walked straight out, his eyes wandering around, looking for Asana.

A lot of people came in, some came alone, and some came in in groups of three or four, talking and laughing loudly, but the figure in memory was missing.

Jun Mogami walked and searched, and before he knew it, he was back at the door.

Then, he finally found Izumo Asana in the corner of the small square at the entrance.

At this time, Asana was wearing a lavender short-sleeved dress with a silk belt around her waist. She had the brightness of a young girl and the dignity of a lady from a noble family. She could almost be described as elegant.

So far, Jun Mogami has only seen Asana wearing a kimono and school uniform, and today is the first time he sees her in casual clothes.

It’s really beautiful.

However, her expression now lacked elegance, but instead was calm with a hint of worry. She was slowly pacing back and forth between the street lights, waiting for something.

Jun Mogami looked around her and found that there was no one around, so he quickly quickened his pace and walked to her side.

"Asana?" he greeted.

Asana, who had been pacing, immediately stopped, then turned around abruptly and looked at Mogami Jun. A faint smile appeared on her face, and she bowed respectfully, "Jun, good afternoon."

"You are too polite. I don't know how to be embarrassed..." Mogami Jun couldn't help but smile bitterly, then stood in front of the other party, "How are you doing recently?"

"It's not like anything bad, it's just like usual..." Asana replied in a low voice. "My parents usually don't discuss anything with me, so I don't have anything to worry about."

Although the other party said so, of course it was impossible for Mogami Jun to accept it all. After all, Asana's current behavior clearly showed that she was worried about something.

But it’s not surprising. Who can remain calm in this situation?

"But you are still worried..." Mogami Jun sighed, "If you weren't worried, you probably wouldn't have come to see me. Or maybe I did something wrong and added to your worries for nothing."

"How could that be!" Chaona raised his head quickly, "Chun, I... I am really grateful that you spoke up for me!"

Then, as if she had thought of something, a hint of embarrassment and shame appeared on her face. She lowered her head again and bowed deeply to Mogami Jun, "I'm really sorry for what happened before. I never thought that my father would treat you so rudely... It's really shameful, please forgive me..."

"Don't worry, I won't be angry about such a small thing. I'm not very polite to others, so being driven away by your father is retribution." Mogami Jun shook his head nonchalantly and didn't take it to heart. "He doesn't like me, and he has no obligation to always accommodate me. It's normal for him not to want to waste his time on me."

"No matter what, it's totally wrong for him to do this." Asana was still a little indignant, pouting slightly, "No matter what, you are guests who come to visit sincerely, and it was my father who invited you. Even if you don't like it, you should still be polite. How can you do this? It really brings down the reputation of our Izumo family."

"Well, it's all in the past. There's no point dwelling on it any longer." Mogami Jun replied with a smile, "Talking about this in private won't change anything. You can't say this to your father in person..."

Seeing Asana's expression, the smile on Mogami Jun's face gradually disappeared, "...You didn't really have a fight with your father, did you?"

Asana still didn't answer, but this was also a tacit agreement.

"I never thought you would dare to speak up for me... Thank you so much." Mogami Jun was a little touched.

Asana is an obedient girl who usually doesn't dare to comment on her father's words and deeds, let alone talk back. But she stood up for herself and accused her father of being rude to his face. It was not easy.

This can also be considered as friendship.

Jun Mogami doesn't believe that when everyone encounters such treatment, Asana will go to her father to "speak up for justice."

"When we see such ridiculous words and actions that damage our family's reputation, we should argue with them. Of course, we can't just turn a blind eye..." Asana answered seriously.

"Then didn't they punish you?" Mogami Jun asked again.

Asana shook her head. "Father knew that he had gone too far, so he didn't say anything more. But... he said that the matter had come to an end, and he would handle it alone from now on, and asked me not to interfere..."

"This is too ridiculous. You can't even interfere in your own affairs? Even your parents don't have this right." Mogami Jun couldn't help but complain.

But Asana didn't answer, and it was obvious that she didn't argue with her father about it at that time.

It does seem like a strange logic for her to not argue for her lifelong event but to directly blame her father for being rude to the guests. However, it is quite normal if you think about it carefully. After all, from what Asana has seen and heard since she was a child, everyone has gone through the same thing and she does not think that this is something that brings disgrace to the family.

"You...you won't back down, right?" Seeing Asana's performance, Mogami Jun became a little nervous.

Then, he wanted to reveal the latest information he had obtained to Asana, "My father recently found out a piece of news. Do you know it? Your mother seems to suddenly want to marry you to your cousin... Is it true?"

Asana gasped. "You...you even know this? That's amazing..."

"It seems that this is indeed true..." Mogami Junye sighed, "So Asana, what do you think about this? Or do you have no opinion at all and are ready to go with the flow?"

This question seemed to have considerable weight, forcing Chaona to lower his head again, his brows slightly furrowed.

Seeing Asana like this, Mogami Jun couldn't help but sigh again before speaking.

"Asana, you may think that I am an unkind person, but even someone like me can understand others. I will not force others to act according to my will. I know that everyone has their own path to take. It is not against the law to marry a cousin. Even if you really want to do this, I will not say anything, let alone interfere. If you say this now, I will turn around and leave immediately, and everyone can pretend that nothing happened. I will never blame you for it. Everyone has their own way of living. Maybe you can be very happy by doing this. After all, this is not without precedent."

It’s just that from now on, we will be strangers, we will never be friends again, and we won’t have any contact anymore - Mogami Jun swallowed this sentence and didn’t say it.

He was chasing the sparkle of the gem, but if the gem didn't sparkle, he could just as well abandon it without any regrets. It was that simple.

"No... I don't like him." Perhaps because of what Mogami Jun said, Asana finally spoke. "It's not that I hate him, but I just can't like him... He's a very easy-going and cute person, but after all, I just think of him as my cousin. I really can't imagine getting along with someone like him... Anyway, I just don't like him."

Ha, so that’s how it is.

It seems that Asana still has her own opinion after all.

Jun Mogami finally breathed a sigh of relief.

That would be easy.
