The strongest high school student in Japan

Although this seems to be a bit impulsive, if you think about it carefully, what the senior said does make sense.

First use courtesy, then force. Since we are going to confront the Matsukata family, it is not a bad idea to simply make our position clear. At least it can intimidate the other party.

The senior was right. Two high school students actually came directly to my house. I'm afraid anyone would be panicked...

Since the senior schoolmate is not afraid, then what should I be afraid of?

Well, let’s go together and confront him head on.

"Okay, then let's do as you say--" After thinking for a moment, Mogami Jun finally nodded, "But senior, you have to promise me that when you get there, you will never do anything overly emotional. No matter what happens, just let me deal with it. Their family is more or less a descendant of a famous family, so they still have to save face."

"Don't worry, I will only act within the limits of what I should do." Sagihara Shion smiled calmly again, "I'm not someone who loses control so easily."

"That's true..." Mogami Jun also laughed, "Ah, we've talked so much that we forgot the most important thing. We haven't found their address yet! We have to look for it carefully."

Sagihara Shion did not answer immediately, but let the smile on her face grow deeper.

"Chun Jun, it seems that you haven't carefully read what I wrote to you..."

"What?" Mogami Jun was a little surprised, then picked up the manuscript she had written and glanced at the end that he had not finished reading.

Then, in the final stage, he saw a line of small words.

"Home address: estimated to be around Sendagi 4-chome 6-9, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo"

"Ah!" He couldn't help but exclaimed, "Even this can be found? Isn't the Internet information too advanced nowadays? Is there still personal privacy?"

"It's not information from the Internet. I guessed it." Sagihara Shion replied in a low voice, "I found an interview record in the documents I was reading. It was with former director Mr. Matsukata Akira. The article didn't reveal the specific address, but the reporter described the surrounding environment before the interview. In the photos released, there were iconic buildings outside the window. Then I compared it with the surrounding environment and guessed the approximate location..."

Then, she added, "By the way, to confirm, I also used GG's street view pictures, and finally locked the approximate location. I think even if this address is wrong, at least it won't be too far off. We can just ask around and find it when the time comes..."

"So amazing..." Jun Mogami couldn't help but say.

It wasn’t a compliment, it was genuine.

Although she had never been exposed to the Internet before and didn't even have a personal mobile phone, she learned these things so quickly without any guidance. Her learning ability is really good.

"Well, do you have any questions, Jun-kun?" asked Sagihara Shion with a smile.

"Senior, today, can you give me a little reward?" Mogami Jun replied. "No other questions."

"Well……"

Sagihara Shion's face turned red again and she glared at this jerk of a junior.

Then she took up the pages again, rolled them up and hit him on the head.

"You know exactly how I'm going to answer!"

241, Guilt

Jun Mogami's proposal was not recognized by the senior. Instead, he was hit by the angry Sagihara senior. However, he was just joking, so he was not frustrated.

"Well, since Senior Sister doesn't want to, forget it." He raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender, "Just pretend I didn't say anything."

"It's good that you know." The senior sister still looked at him with anger, "Chun Jun, did my frivolous behavior before make you misunderstand me? Do you think I'm the kind of person who will do anything to please others?"

"Frivolous?" Mogami Jun was a little puzzled.

Thinking back carefully, even though I have known Sakihara-senpai for such a long time, the most intimate thing we have done is just feeding each other cakes and caressing her calves.

If this is called frivolous, then shouldn't all those high school lovers who have sex at such a young age be arrested and sent to jail?

Then he immediately understood - the senior student was probably affected by the rumors and was afraid of losing her dignity in front of others.

This has become a mental illness, which is why she is so angry at the Matsukata family and is willing to spend her precious time and energy to regain her dignity.

It is our unshirkable responsibility to comfort our companions, and we cannot remain silent at this time.

"Senior, I don't think you are frivolous at all. You are a person of high moral character and integrity. There are not many people like you in the world. You should be proud of this." Mogami Jun immediately became serious and looked at the senior with a very serious attitude. "I have never thought for a second that I am superior to you. On the contrary, I am sincerely happy that I have the opportunity to meet you. I also hope that I can continue to get along with you in the future--"

After saying that, the two of them just stared at each other.

"Thank you..." Sagihara Shion nodded gently. "I'm sorry, I overreacted a bit. I know Jun-kun really didn't mean any harm..."

It can be seen that the senior sister is a little depressed now.

"Senior is such a serious person, how could I take it to heart?" Mogami Jun replied with a smile.

Jun Mogami probably figured it out.

A person's character is shaped by his or her life experiences and ideas.

Because of the sins committed by her father, Senior Sagihara is filled with inferiority complex deep in her heart. She desperately hopes to make a break with the past that she cannot bear to look back on. In order to do so, she would even rather give away all the huge fortune accumulated by her father.

She would rather live the poorest life than leave anything for herself. Such a resolute behavior not only shows how strong her willpower is, but also shows how obsessed she is with escaping from the "past".

This inferiority complex turned into extreme self-esteem. She didn't want anyone to look down on her, nor did she want to please others, so she took the initiative to reject those friends who still associated with her.

Others could just laugh off those slanderous words, but for the senior sister, it was like her bloody wound was being ruthlessly opened again, and the black mud that she tried so hard to stay away from was getting on her body again.

Therefore, when faced with rumors, the senior student reacted so violently.

She was not fighting against the Matsukata family, but against her own "past".

Because he realized this painfully, Mogami Jun became even more angry towards the Matsukata family.

If he wanted to deal with me, then I could understand whatever he did, but how could a person do such a despicable thing as slandering and humiliating others for no reason?

"Senior..." After an unknown amount of time, Mogami Jun finally broke the silence, "Don't be afraid, I'm still here. No matter what happens, at least I won't despise you or abandon you."

Sagihara Shion was surprised at first, then couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It's really Chun-kun, so annoying, you can always tell what I'm thinking..."

Then, she lowered her head again. "Yes, I am indeed afraid, but I am not afraid of the Matsukata family. I am afraid of something else... Could it be that I will never be able to get rid of the past? Obviously... Obviously I have tried so hard..."

The senior suddenly covered her face and spoke almost explosively.

"I know that my father committed a crime and our family deserved to be punished, but I was only ten years old at the time. I had never killed anyone or cheated anyone. What could I do? What could I know? What could I have done to stop it? Why must I bear the sin forever? Even if I have sinned, I have tried my best to atone for it. Is there anything I haven't done enough? Why... Why does the world always remind me again and again that I am the daughter of Sagihara Masao... When will I be able to live in this world with a clear conscience as Sagihara Shion instead of the daughter of a sinner?!"

Perhaps because she was too sad, Sagihara Shion couldn't help sobbing softly while speaking, "I... I'm not an ungrateful person. I never dare to ask too much of others, but is this just one request too much? Jun-kun, is it too much?"

"Not at all." Mogami Jun answered immediately. "Senior, you have nothing to do with your father's sins. No matter what he did, you were not involved, and you have no responsibility. No one has the right to laugh at you or blame you."

However, Jun Mogami also knew that such comfort was of no use.

These are all true principles, but principles are always just principles. There are too many people in the world who are absolutely unreasonable. They only want to trample on others and mock them in the simplest way to vent the resentment accumulated in their lives.

"Senior, do you know where you went wrong?" Mogami Jun asked again.

"What's wrong?" Sagihara Shion asked in a low voice.

"You are wrong in thinking that as long as you do something well, others will recognize you, thank you, and change their perception of you. I don't deny that this is indeed possible sometimes, but I want to ask, there are billions of people on the earth, and this country alone is crowded with 100 million people. You please this and that, but can you please everyone? No, you can't, and no one can do it. What will be the result? You moved some people, but others will still laugh at you. They will slander you for various purposes, dig up those past events that you can't bear to look back on, and look forward to watching you collapse and cry... If you just try so hard, you will never be able to bury the past in the depths of darkness. This time it was the Matsukata family, and next time there will be a Matsuma family. As long as they want to stab you, they will always take out these weapons, and you can't escape."

Jun Mogami looked at the senior gently, and then spoke calmly.

"That... doesn't that mean that I will live in the shadow forever? What... what did I do wrong?!" asked Sagihara Shion sobbing.

"It's not what you did wrong, but what you didn't do." Mogami Jun sighed, "Senior, ask yourself, who is worse, you or Hyoudou Takako? Who bears more sins?"

"…Have I fallen to the point where I can compare myself to her?" Sagihara Shion retorted loudly, "She is indeed rich, but she is a bad guy! I am not like her…"

"Senior, you got it wrong. We should say she is a bad guy, but she is rich and powerful." Mogami Jun shook his head. "It is precisely because she is rich and powerful that her badness becomes a trivial flaw. No one will publicly come out and say how many people this woman has harmed and how many sins she has committed. On the contrary, everyone just silently endures it, pretending that they saw nothing, and lets her run rampant without restraint... Do you think she will feel guilty? Will she ever think about atonement? She won't even think about it! So compared to her, what else do you have to feel guilty about, senior?"

Then he laughed again. "So in the end, I think Senior is too kind. You know, there are many evil people in the world, and there are many people who are more evil than Sagihara Masao. However, they can use gold to paint themselves, so that everyone can only see their bright and beautiful side. Wherever they go, there will be people who curry favor with them. If someone says something gossipy about them, these people will attack them. So they live with peace of mind and never care about other people's opinions, let alone feel guilty like Senior."

After a brief pause, Mogami Jun made his final statement, "So, senior sister, since they don't feel guilty, what do you have to feel guilty about? You have done well enough so far, and doing more won't change anything. Others will continue to attack you. You are ten thousand times better than them. All you lack is the status and position they have. Once you have these, there will naturally be countless people who will tell those who attack you to shut up. I'm afraid I won't be able to get a number if I want to help..."

Sagihara Shion had been listening quietly, then she slowly raised her head and looked at Mogami Jun with tearful eyes.

"You sound a little cruel, but it does sound like something Jun-kun would say."

"I don't want to be like this, but the world is so cruel." Mogami Jun shrugged. "In fact, the world has always been so cruel. To be honest, the current era is much better than before... Don't forget that just a few centuries ago, this country was still in the Warring States Period where people killed people like grass."

"Yes...it has always been cruel, Jun-kun always sees it so clearly." Sagihara Shion nodded, then changed the subject, "But, for me, as long as your world is there, it won't be the cruelest."

"Don't say that, Senior. I'm also a cruel person." Mogami Jun shook his head again. "I don't care about everyone."

"I know." Sagihara Shion smiled, her eyes sparkling with tears, "But even so, it's enough."

Then, she continued speaking in a tone as if she were talking in a dream.

"A small sampan was floating alone in the vast ocean, surrounded by raging winds. It was shaking violently in the stormy waves, and it seemed that it would sink at any time. It was not afraid of sinking, but it was afraid of the endless darkness. Because of the storm, it could not see a single starlight... But at this moment, it saw a little bit of dim glow beyond the distant sea, which seemed to be emitted by the lighthouse on the shore.

Although the light was so dim, it was enough for it, because it knew that perhaps the harbor that could help it avoid the storm and avoid sinking was just ahead..."

Jun Mogami did not answer, but just listened quietly.

Sagihara Shion wiped her face gently with her sleeve, then slowly stood up and bowed to Mogami Jun.

"You have strengthened my will once again, Junjun, thank you. I understand that the only way for me to not care about the past is to make it unable to hurt me again. No matter how far I have to go, I will grit my teeth and go there. One day, I will make people no longer dare to remember where Sagihara Shion came from..."

"I firmly believe that one day, people will no longer care where Sagihara Shion came from." Mogami Junya stood up and bowed to Sagihara Shion.

The two people looked out the window at the same time.

It’s really getting late.

It feels like time went by so fast.

"Jun-kun, it's time to say goodbye again. Goodbye." Sagihara Shion said goodbye seriously. "Let's make an appointment on the phone to go together, and then we can visit together."

⑧①④⑨ ling ③Qi Bar

"Okay." Jun Mogami replied.

"We absolutely cannot lose." Sagihara Shion clenched her fists. "We absolutely cannot lose!"

Then she turned around and left the room.

242, door-to-door

It's another hot and ordinary weekend.

The hot air of midsummer seemed to have made the cicadas in the trees lose the strength to sing. The breeze blowing in the face could not bring much coolness, but only made the branches and leaves of the nearby trees sway weakly.

This is an ordinary residential area in Tokyo. There are many single-family houses in this area, so it is very quiet and the air is quite fresh, which is incompatible with the noisy atmosphere of the big city.

The boy and the girl walked slowly forward in the sultry air.

The young man was wearing a shirt and tie, and the girl was also wearing a shirt and skirt and holding an umbrella in her hand. Both of them were dressed very formally, like students attending some event.

"It should be right here..." Mogami Jun said, using his phone to measure the two people's current location. "Senior, if my guess is correct, we are almost there."

"Well, although I have never been here before, I am already very familiar with this area... Modern technology is really convenient." Sagihara Shion, holding an umbrella, nodded slightly, holding a mobile phone in her other hand and looking at it carefully.

While looking at her phone, she would occasionally look up to compare the surrounding street scenes and directions.

Then, she pointed to a single-family house in the front right corner and said, "Chun Jun, that should be the house!"

Mogami Jun didn't waste any time and immediately followed Senior Sagihara. Since they had time today, it didn't matter if they guessed wrong.

The two men walked to the wall and gate outside the house, stopped, and then looked up. They saw the two Chinese characters "Matsukata" hanging on the nameplate on the wall.

"It really is here!" Mogami Jun exclaimed, and then looked at the senior in surprise, "Senior, this is amazing!"

Although he trusted the senior's analysis and judgment very much, he could not help feeling a little hesitant in his heart. But now, after seeing these two Chinese characters, all his doubts had disappeared, turning into joy of relief.

Finally they found me... It was worth the effort they put in.

"It's not that great..." Sagihara Shion blushed slightly, "It just took a little time."

Obviously, even though she didn't say it, the senior sister was still a little proud in her heart.

Now that they have come to my door, there is nothing to worry about.

Jun Mogami walked straight to the door and prepared to press the doorbell.

"Junjun, wait a minute!" Sagihara Shion suddenly called him.

"What's wrong?" Mogami Jun turned around in confusion, and found that Senior Sagihara was wiping the sweat off her face with a handkerchief and tidying up her hair.

Only then did he realize that the two of them had been walking for such a long time in the hot weather that they had sweated a lot and their foreheads were stuck with hair.

But... after all, she is a girl, she still cares about this kind of problem at this time.

"Chun-kun, we can't make any mistakes and let them look down on us!" Sagihara Shion explained in a low voice, "This is a matter of dignity!"

Then, she used her handkerchief to wipe Jun Mogami's forehead directly, carefully wiping away all the sweat stains, and then put the handkerchief away.

"Okay, thank you, senior!" Mogami Jun was a little embarrassed, but he could only say thank you.

Then, to boost morale, he waved his hand and said, "Then let's go! Justice is in the Western Army!"
