The strongest high school student in Japan

"I'm sorry to disappoint you. Although you sent me to such a closed school, the news is not as closed as you think." Asana replied with a wry smile, "Besides, how could I possibly tell you the person who got the news?"

Mrs. Izumo was silent again.

She did not explode in anger like she had just now. It was obvious that the development of the situation was somewhat beyond her expectations. She had no time to get angry, but was instead prepared to deal with the new situation.

"Okay, you have a good rest, I'll come over tomorrow." She emphasized again, and then said goodbye, "Goodbye."

"Goodbye." Asana replied in a low voice.

This long phone call finally ended.

Asana held the phone in her hand, then sat blankly on a chair in the gazebo, tears rolling down her cheeks as she cried silently.

The violent fluctuations in her emotions made it difficult for her to control herself, and the disappointment and loss in her heart made her extremely painful.

After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly felt someone gently stroking her back.

"Poor thing." Then there was a long sigh.

"Why didn't you tell her that I told you?" the other person then asked in a low voice. "If she knew it was me who told you, maybe she would be more restrained."

"This is just me... just me... my own business..." Asana sobbed and replied, "Why bother involving Senior? If Senior was scolded by her family, I... I would feel bad too."

"Silly child, you are so uncomfortable, but you still want to do it." The other party sighed again. "But since this day will come eventually, it might be better to come earlier."

"It can't get any worse." Asana forced a bitter smile through her tearful eyes.

"No matter what, thank you, senior sister, thank you everyone. Thank you for supporting us, thank you for giving me the courage..."

......................................................

While Asana was being comforted, her mother was still in unspeakable rage.

The phone in her hand was still hot, but the fire burning in her heart was thousands of times hotter than that.

She didn't understand how things could have developed to this point when everything was going well.

She could feel her daughter's tough attitude, and there was absolutely no falsehood in it.

But even so, she still has to act according to her own will.

She picked up the phone again and dialed another number.

The call was put through quickly.

"Sister, is there anything wrong so late?" A middle-aged man's voice came from the phone.

"Asana seems to know about your previous plan, so she is very resistant... Who told her? Do you have any idea?" Mrs. Izumo didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

"We...we were very secretive at the time, how did she know?!" The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became shocked and angry. "How...how is it possible...?"

"It's already happened, and you're still panicking. What a shame." Mrs. Izumo said calmly, "It's useless to blame others. Let's think of a solution. Do you have any ideas?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time. It was obvious that the other party was trying hard to calm down and recover from the shock.

"Could it be... Could it be that someone from the Mogami family told her?" After a long moment, he asked cautiously, "The Mogami family must have been unwilling to be kicked out by us. Plus, they have a lot of connections in society, so maybe they could have gotten the news, and then told Asana for revenge, hoping to use it to ruin this marriage..."

"It seems to make sense..." Mrs. Izumo thought for a moment and really felt that it made sense, so she nodded. "It seems that this bad fate is really lingering..."

"What a bunch of bastards!" The person on the other end of the phone cursed angrily, "We originally just wanted them to leave with dignity, but since they did this, don't blame us for not considering their dignity..."

"No, don't act rashly." Mrs. Izumo interrupted her brother.

"Huh?" The other party was a little surprised.

"We went to the shrine together to pray for fate before, and it was auspicious. It shows that the bond between us is indeed deep, and reality has also proved this point..." Mrs. Izumo frowned slightly, "I am afraid that I have angered the gods by doing this in private. If I act rashly again, it may backfire..."

"What a ridiculous fate with the gods..." The voice on the phone became strange, as if he was trying not to laugh, as if he didn't agree with what his wife said at all.

"Okay, leave these to me. You should be more careful in your behavior in the future and don't cause me any more trouble. Goodbye." Mrs. Izumo hung up the phone.

235, Questioning

It was another ordinary and dull morning.

The morning mist had just dissipated, the sky was gray, and the air was filled with an indescribable smell, which was the busy smoke of the city, and also the smell of desire and pain.

The elevator door slowly opened, and Mogami Sayuki walked into the underground parking lot with a tired face, then opened the car door with the key and got into her car.

She came back very late last night and went out to work early in the morning. After her son left, the so-called home to her was not much different from staying overnight in a hotel.

She had almost no communication with her husband and they lived in separate rooms, so until now she didn't know whether he came back last night or whether he was still at home - of course she didn't care about that.

For many years, she and her husband have been living in this cold state. They have actually gotten used to this kind of life. They do not interfere with each other and almost never quarrel except about their son's affairs. This can be considered a "sub-healthy" state.

With the sleepiness not yet completely gone, Mogami Sayuki yawned and started the car. Almost at the same time, the car player played soft music. She squinted her eyes slightly, preparing to rest for another three minutes before setting off for work.

These are the most enjoyable minutes of her day.

However, today, her comfort was broken by an unexpected visitor.

The phone made a noisy sound, waking up Sayuki Mogami.

Mogami Sayuki frowned impatiently, picked up the phone, and was immediately surprised - the person calling was someone she never expected to have any intersection with.

After suppressing her surprise, Mogami Sayuki answered the phone, "Hello, Mrs. Izumo. Excuse me, why did you call me specifically? Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Yes, the caller ID showed it was Mrs. Izumo.

Previously, the two mothers exchanged phone numbers for the purpose of blind dating, but ever since their sons were rejected by the Izumo family, they felt that there would be no chance for the two families to interact again. Although they did not delete each other's phone numbers, they had long forgotten each other in their hearts. But when they received the call today, they were really surprised.

"Good morning, Madam Mogami. I am sorry to bother you so early in the morning." Madam Izumo's voice was as cold and calm as before. "I hope I have not delayed your work?"

"No, no, I'm still resting at home." Mogami Sayuki smiled fakely, "Excuse me, what's the matter?"

While responding politely, she was still wondering in her heart what Mrs. Izumo meant.

Could it be that they regretted their decision and wanted to put their son back on the candidate list?

But she quickly rejected the idea.

This is not a joke, how can it happen over and over again?

Just as Mogami Sayuki was thinking to herself, Mrs. Izumo spoke again, "It's actually nothing serious. I just remembered that my husband received your son abruptly before. It was really impolite. After thinking about it, I still feel uneasy, so I apologize to you."

It would have been fine if she didn't mention what happened before. When she thought of it, Mogami Sayuki became angry. Her son had specially followed her husband to visit someone, but was sent back home in the afternoon and was not even invited to dinner. It was really infuriating.

This is not only embarrassing for both of them, but also for myself.

Thinking of this, Mogami Sayuki's attitude could not help but become cold. "What are you talking about? We just had an intention. Your family has the right to make any choice. My son is not good enough and therefore not in your eyes. It is his own responsibility. You can't blame anyone. You don't have to feel bad. A famous family like the Izumo family should be extremely cautious. I sincerely hope that your family can find a suitable candidate as soon as possible to continue the family line... Only in this way can we feel at ease..."

When she spoke later, there was obvious sarcasm in Mogami Sayuki's words, and Mrs. Izumo could of course hear it.

"Well, thank you so much for your kindness." However, she was not angry, she just laughed again.

Then, she suddenly changed the subject, "It's rare that you are so magnanimous, but your son doesn't seem to be so open-minded. He has been pestering my daughter several times recently. To be honest, we are a little troubled... But I can understand his feelings. After all, he is so outstanding and must have been accustomed to being praised and admired by others. So it is normal for him to feel a little disappointed for a while."

"What?!" Although Mrs. Izumo's words were quite tactful, Mogami Sayuki still heard the hidden meaning.

This is asking for punishment.

"Jun has been harassing Asana recently? Is that true?" She still didn't quite believe it.

"If there is no such thing, why would I have the audacity to come to you again?" Mrs. Izumo sighed, "Think about it, from our perspective, we would like to keep things peaceful, right?"

Mogami Sayuki thought about it and realized that it was true.

From the perspective of the Izumo family, since they have already rejected the Mogami family, they must hope that the two families will have no further dealings in the future and not cause any more trouble. Since the other party has come to say this specifically, it is probably true.

"And how did he come to harass your daughter?" she asked patiently.

"I have checked with many people. Your son has had many private contacts with my daughter. I won't talk about the previous ones. After all, it is understandable that they want to improve their relationship. But what is troubling is that after being rejected by my husband, he has repeatedly tricked Asana into meeting him. After all, Asana actually secretly went to see him last time when she went to the city. Alas... It is really heartbreaking that my daughter has done such a thing that brings disgrace to the family."

“There is actually such a thing…?” Mogami Sayuki gasped.

"Please believe me. How could I slander your son without any reason? If there is no solid evidence, I would never dare to tell you anything. If you need a witness, I can find one for you..." Mrs. Izumo replied calmly, "And don't worry, I am definitely not here to accuse you. To some extent, I can understand your son's feelings, but sometimes fate is like this. Please let him face reality a little."

Although Mrs. Izumo's words were very magnanimous and seemed to be making excuses for Mogami Jun, Mogami Sayuki found it increasingly unpleasant to hear and she couldn't help but feel angry.

Now that things have come to this, there is no need for any witnesses.

"This unfilial son! What a shame!" She couldn't help but curse.

Mogami Sayuki suddenly forgot about her manners and was really angry.

This anger was not only directed at Mrs. Izumo, but more at his own son.

Everyone is in the world, and the most important thing is face. Since you have been clearly rejected, why do you still want to be beaten? It is undeniable that Izumo Asana is indeed an outstanding girl, but there are many good girls in the world. When did she become the missing one? It has come to this point, what else can't be let go?

"Please don't be angry... After all, young people are full of energy and this is normal." Mrs. Izumo advised again.

"Please don't persuade me. I will handle our family's affairs myself." Mogami Sayuki was too lazy to be polite and interrupted the other party directly. "Please rest assured that since things have come to this point, we will not bother your family anymore. If he dares to do this again, I will break his legs! Is this okay?"

"Thank you for being so sensible." Mrs. Izumo breathed a sigh of relief and looked finally satisfied. "I won't say anything else. I hope everything goes well for you in the future."

"I wish you all the best, too. Goodbye." After saying that, Mogami Sayuki hung up the phone without any hesitation.

A feeling of anger lingered in her heart, growing stronger and stronger, and finally she couldn't help but slammed the steering wheel hard.

Then she angrily picked up her cell phone and called her son.

When the cell phone rang, Jun Mogami was just half asleep. He picked up the phone from the bedside table, and immediately all his sleepiness disappeared.

"Mom, is there something wrong?" Jun Mogami asked while yawning.

"You bastard, look at what you've done! You've really brought shame to everyone!" Suddenly, the mother's roar came from the phone, "Just wait for me, I'll come and deal with you tonight!"

"..." Jun Mogami had not yet come out of his daze. "Mom...what's wrong?"

"Are you still playing dumb in front of me?" Mogami Sayuki became even angrier. "Tell me, have you been secretly meeting Izumo Asana recently?!"

When asked by his mother, Jun Mogami suddenly became nervous.

How to answer?

Now that I've been directly questioned, it seems pointless to deny it.

"Yes, Mom, what's wrong?" He calmed down and asked. "We had something to do..."

"You still have the nerve to ask what happened?! People have already called me to accuse me!" Mogami Sayuki answered loudly, "Tell me, people have clearly rejected you, why did you still do this? Aren't you afraid of losing face? I asked you to treat Asana well before, but you refused. Now you secretly go to see her and coax a young girl who is not well-versed in the world. What do you think you mean by this? It's okay for you to joke about your own face, but you also joke about other people's reputation. Is this what you should do?"

Her mother's angry scolding made Mogami Jun feel hot on her face. If the two of them were face to face now, she would probably have slapped him in the face.

But the more times like this happened, the calmer Jun Mogami became.

He had already figured out what had happened - just now, Mrs. Izumo must have called her mother to complain, saying that he had secretly met with Asana.

Although I don't know how Mrs. Izumo found out about this, it is a fact and cannot be denied.

And on the surface, it seemed that she was indeed in the wrong, so it was understandable that her mother was so angry - she had a very strong self-esteem and would never allow herself to belittle herself. She continued to pester Asana even after being rejected.

My father is completely different in this regard. He hasn't given up until now.

Mrs. Izumo, why are you doing this?

The question suddenly occurred to him.

Generally speaking, unless it is absolutely necessary, someone like her would not personally go to the front to ask for punishment... unless something big happened.

Could it be that Asana had fallen out with her mother, and in anger, Mrs. Izumo took her anger out on herself, so she complained directly, hoping that her parents would restrain herself?

If that's the case, then it's actually a good thing...

After thinking for a moment, Mogami Jun slowly sorted out his thoughts.

"Mom, I admit that I may have done something dishonorable, but things are not as simple as you think..." He finally spoke, "It was Asana who took the initiative to ask me for help. She didn't want to become a hostage of her parents."

"What? What happened?" Mogami Sayuki didn't care about being angry and asked back immediately.

"I'm afraid I can't explain it clearly over the phone. Since you're coming to see me tonight, I'll explain it to you then. In short, please rest assured that I've acted properly and have absolutely not lost face for myself or you, I promise!" Mogami Jun replied, "Also, I need your help—"

"Help?" Mogami Sayuki was even more confused, "Who are you targeting?"

"Of course it's aimed at Madam Izumo..." Mogami Jun replied with a smile, "Oh, and the Matsukata family."

"What Matsukata family?" Mogami Sayuki was completely confused. "What on earth did you do behind my back?"

"Then please listen to my explanation patiently tonight, thank you!"

Mogami Sayuki was silent for a moment.

Her anger gradually subsided.

Her trust in her son ultimately made her unwilling to believe that he would really do such a shameless thing.
