The strongest high school student in Japan

"You ran over so late at night, Jun-chan is really suffering from lovesickness... You're not even willing to wait for a day?" Mayu narrowed her eyes slightly, glanced at Mogami Jun, and seemed to be a little sarcastic, "Or is it that Jun-chan wants to create a sensational news in that person's place?"

Uh……

How should he explain it? Mogami Jun hesitated.

The blind date between him and Asana, Asana being forced into marriage by her parents, the Izumo family secretly forging artworks... every single one of these things seemed like something that could not be told to outsiders.

There is no way to explain this question at all.

"Yuzu-chan, no matter what you think, anyway... I went to see her that night because there was something important, and it was so important that I had to do it right away, without any delay." After thinking for a moment, Mogami Jun could only answer helplessly, "As for why, I'm sorry I can't tell you, after all, everyone has their own privacy-"

Although Jun Mogami's words were quite confusing, Takasaki Mayu calmed down a little.

"So, Chun-chan, it's not because of...that kind of reason?" she asked again.

Mogami Jun couldn't figure out what this "that reason" was for a moment, but he should have understood the general meaning.

"Asana and I are indeed good friends, but we are very sensible in our interactions. Even if you don't believe me, you should believe Asana. A lady from a noble family like her would never do anything that would damage the family's reputation—" Mogami Jun spread his hands, "So no matter what rumors you hear, don't spread them. It's not good for everyone's reputation."

"Hmph, I won't believe her..." Takasaki Mayu muttered in a low voice that Jun Mogami couldn't hear.

Then, she smiled cutely again, "Chun-chan, there's no need for you to be nervous. Logically speaking, Chun-chan can go wherever she wants and see whoever she wants. You-chan has no right to interfere, and there's no need to explain to you... You-chan just wants to care about you as a friend~"

"Thank you, thank you for your concern." Mogami Jun could only smile bitterly.

"By the way, you said before that you have been friends with Asana for many years, so have you ever been to their house?" Mayu suddenly asked.

Jun Mogami was a little surprised. He didn't know why Mayu suddenly asked this question.

However, seeing that Zhenyou seemed a little curious and nervous, he suddenly wanted to play a trick on her.

"Our two families do have a deep relationship and we have frequent exchanges. Not long ago, I went to their home twice. Her father is a very learned and humorous man. He entertained me very warmly."

In a sense, Jun Mogami was not lying, it was all true.

"Recently, I went there twice...twice..." Zhenyou murmured. She seemed to relax and even suspected that her legs were going weak.

Then, she forced herself to cheer up, "So, is Asana's house like in the comics, with a butler and servants and stuff like that...?"

Mayu opened her eyes wide and looked at Mogami Jun blankly, as if she wanted to get a negative answer, "But, I guess I'm just overthinking it... There's no such thing in this day and age, hahaha..."

"You're wrong. The Izumo family really does have one." Mogami Jun suppressed his laughter and replied calmly, "The old butler and the servants were very professional and entertained me very warmly. I really felt nostalgic..."

"Is it really like this?" In an instant, the light in Mayu's eyes faded, and she seemed to have shrunk. "Is this really the case, young lady?"

Ah... I've gone too far!

"Yuzu-chan, what's wrong with you?!" Mogami Jun quickly reached out and supported her, "Are you okay?"

After helping Zhenyou, he quickly explained, "Actually...actually there's nothing fun in their house. There are so many rules that it doesn't make people feel comfortable at all. Every time I go there, I leave very quickly. To be honest...I don't miss it."

"That's...that's good." Zhenyou was obviously relieved, and there was light in his eyes again.

"I told you! Jun-chan is not the kind of person who values ​​money above all else. Even if Asana is a lady, Jun-chan will never try to please her just for money. On the contrary, she would be more cautious."

Uh... you think too highly of me. Mogami Jun felt ashamed.

"Why are you suddenly asking this, Yuzu-chan?" Mogami Jun changed the subject.

"Nothing, just asking." Mayu shook her head, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Mogami Jun's shoulder, "Jun-chan, come to my house and play tomorrow?"

"Huh?" Mogami Jun was a little surprised, "Why?"

"Because I want you to come over and play." Zhenyou answered with a reasonable tone, "I told you last time that you wouldn't go, so you should come this time, right?"

Jun Mogami recalled that after the two of them came out of the train, Jun Mogami persuaded Mayu not to do anything, and Mayu seemed to have invited him to go home with her.

He refused at the time because there was really no need.

But I didn't expect Zhenyou to bring up the old matter again, and after asking some questions.

If I refuse now, it seems a bit too cruel...

"Yuzu-chan, why did you suddenly ask me to do this? Do you want me to do something?" Mogami-jun thought for a moment, then looked at him suspiciously, "We are already friends. If there is anything you need help with, just say it directly. There is no need to beat around the bush."

"Nothing! Can Yuzu-chan only play with Jun-chan when she has something to do?" Zhen Yuzu shook her head vigorously, then stared at Mogami Jun and asked seriously, "Jun-chan, just answer whether you are going or not. Of course, our family is definitely not comparable to those families with housekeepers and servants. It is normal for you to disdain to set foot there. I can understand that..."

Although this is a very childish way of provoking someone, it really works.

Mogami Jun sighed inwardly.

Things have come to this point. If I refuse, it would be too inhumane.

Well, no matter what tricks Zhenyou has up his mind, it won’t be something that will be disadvantageous to me.

"Stop talking, isn't it enough that I agree? Yuzu-chan~" Mogami Jun sighed.

“It’s settled then!” Mayu finally smiled happily, then pulled Mogami Jun’s shoulder, “Thank you Jun-chan!”

271, deep meaning

Under Mayu's strong insistence, Mogami Jun did not insist any further and agreed to her request.

Just now, when he deliberately teased her by saying that he had been to the Izumo family several times recently, and that the other party was really as rich as in the comic books, Shinyu was like a balloon that had been punctured. Her whole body shrank and she looked visibly lost.

Seeing how depressed she was, Mogami Jun suddenly couldn't bear to reject her cruelly anymore.

Although I don’t know why Zhenyou made such a request, it’s no big deal anyway, so it’s okay to agree to it.

And so, the next afternoon, Mogami Jun and Mayu went to her house together.

In order to avoid gossip, the two people walked out of the school separately and did not meet again until they arrived at the tram stop.

Soon, they squeezed into the carriage, stood side by side under the railing, and started their journey home amid the incessant roar of the train.

Seeing Mayu standing next to him, Mogami Jun suddenly recalled an almost identical scene from last time.

However, Zhenyou at that time was full of worries, and the whole person seemed to be shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere. But now Zhenyou seems to have completely changed. His originally fair face now exudes a fluorescent light, and there is a faint smile on his face. He must be in a very good mood.

It's the rush hour after get off work, so there are more and more people in the carriage. Mogami Jun and Mayu were originally a little distance apart, but soon they had to squeeze together shoulder to shoulder.

Fortunately, Zhenyou was not angry about this, but just approached him silently.

"Jun-chan." She greeted softly.

The soft voice, coupled with the fact that she was deliberately speaking close to his ear, made Mogami Jun's heartbeat speed up a little.

"What's wrong, Yuzu-chan?" He quickly concealed his distracted feelings and asked the other party.

"Why don't you look at me? Are you nervous?" Zhenyou asked.

"Huh...?" Mogami Jun was a little surprised.

"Will I...will I be nervous? You're overthinking it." Then he quickly denied it.

"Then, why don't you look at me when you talk? Is there something else in this carriage more worth seeing than me?" Zhenyou frowned slightly.

Fortunately, Zhenyou's voice was very soft, and the carriage was a bit noisy, otherwise such brazen words would surely draw ridicule from the people around him.

At Mayu's request, Mogami Jun looked at Mayu's face again.

...as beautiful as ever, and with a hint of prettiness in her slight anger.

To be honest... Zhenyou is really qualified to say such shameless words.

After looking for a while, Mogami Jun couldn't help but look away again.

Zhenyou said that he felt guilty, and in fact he did feel a little guilty.

After all, he himself had no confidence and wondered if he would really become dizzy if he kept watching.

"Here! Look at me!" Zhenyou was a little unhappy, so she reached out and grabbed his chin, and forced it towards her.

"Hey..." Jun Mogami was caught off guard.

He quickly glanced around. After all, this action seemed a little too intimate in public.

Fortunately, the passengers were not surprised by the intimate behavior of the boys and girls and did not react at all. They were still immersed in their own world, listening to music or playing with their mobile phones.

He finally felt a little relieved.

"Hey, are you crazy? What should you do if someone recognizes you and takes a photo of you? Haven't you suffered enough?" Then he couldn't help but scold the other person.

"It doesn't matter. I'm not famous enough that people would recognize me even if I walked down the street..." Zhenyou shook her head nonchalantly. "Besides, we're just friends, so what's wrong with joking around with them... I don't need to care about them."

"If something really happened, you wouldn't be like this." Mogami Jun couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, let's not talk about those unpleasant things and talk about something else." Zhenyou changed the subject.

Seeing how stubborn Mayu was, Mogami Jun didn't know what to say next.

"So what do you want to say?"

"You can say whatever you want." Mayu looked at Mogami Jun, "Just think about it, two boys and girls of our age, sitting on the train together and being silent, it's weird, right—"

No, it's not surprising at all, many people got through this way, Mogami Jun complained in his heart.

But since Zhenyou said so, it was difficult for me to refute it.

Otherwise, wouldn't it seem too arrogant? After all, there should be almost no one who doesn't want to talk to Zhenyou in this mode.

"Okay then - can you give me a topic?" asked Jun Mogami.

"Chun-chan has hidden many things from Yu-chan, and Yu-chan knows them all. But, well... Yu-chan knows that everyone has their own secrets, so Yu-chan won't ask. If Chun-chan wants to say something, he will tell Yu-chan himself. So... Chun-chan, just tell me what special places you have been to, just think of it as telling a story." Zhen Yu laughed.

"Special places..." Mogami Jun thought for a moment, "I haven't been to any special places. If I had to put it simply, I probably went to a lot of places when I was a kid traveling with my mom—"

"Travel! Have you ever been abroad?" Zhenyou asked quickly.

"Yes." Jun Mogami nodded.

"Wow! That's amazing!" Zhenyou exclaimed a little, "I've never traveled abroad. Where have you been? Hawaii? Italy?"

“…Sorry, I’ve been to all of them.” Mogami Jun replied.

"I'm really a little envious of you—" Zhenyou opened her eyes wide and looked at the boy in disbelief. "I've only been to Hokkaido and Okinawa. My dad doesn't like going abroad... Then why don't you just tell me about your travels! Did you encounter any interesting things?"

"I didn't encounter any strange things. It was just a normal trip." Mogami Jun shook his head and briefly talked about what he saw and heard when traveling with his mother.

Zhenyou kept listening and asked a few questions from time to time. The two of them chatted like this, and time on the tram passed quickly.

The tram stopped and started, and people came and went, but the boy and the girl ignored it and just looked at each other and chatted.

"Oh, I really envy Jun-chan. She has been able to travel with her family since she was a child. No wonder she is so knowledgeable." After a long while, Mayu couldn't help but sigh, and then looked at Mogami Jun with a little confusion, "But why is it that Jun-chan's travels are all with her mother? Didn't Jun-chan's father travel with them?"

Congratulations, you noticed the point.

"My father is very busy at work, so it's usually my mother who takes me on trips." After a moment's silence, Jun Mogami answered.

"My father is also very busy at work, but he always takes some time out every year to take me out to play." Zhenyou said with a bit of boasting, "What kind of job does your father do? Why is he so busy?"

"He's a civil servant, so he's pretty busy." Mogami Jun replied in a low voice, "Of course, it's not that he can't spare the time, but he doesn't really like traveling... so that's it."

It was obvious that Mogami Jun didn't like questions like these, so Mayu stopped asking.

However, she has already learned a lot of information through this opportunity, which is enough.

Although I don't know what level of civil servant his father is, judging from his daily life and many travel experiences, he shouldn't be a low-level person...

Chun-chan, you’re so amazing… She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.

Just after the two people finished chatting, the tram arrived at its final destination.

The two of them walked out of the tram station together.

It was already completely dark, and the lights were shining brightly on the street. Jun Mogami looked around and found that the scenery was no different from the last time, as if time had gone back.

He followed his memory, looking in the direction that Zhenyou had pointed at that time, looking at the area hidden in the dim light.

"Don't just stand there, come with me." Just as he was still thinking, Zhenyou suddenly grabbed his hand. "Hey, you didn't suddenly change your mind at this time?"

"Of course not..." Mogami Jun shook his head.

So, he followed Zhenyou and started walking forward.

The two of them chatted as they walked, passing through the streets and corridors of high-rise buildings, and before they knew it they had walked quite a distance.

"Jun-chan, are you tired from walking? Sorry for the hardship~" Zhenyou said a little embarrassedly, "A young lady like Asana, who goes to a remote girls' school, should have been picked up by a special car with a driver since she was a child. How can a commoner like Yu-chan compare to that..."

Although this is a statement of fact, one can always hear a hint of sourness in it.

"Of course this short distance is nothing to me. You've walked this distance so many times. It's impossible that I have less endurance than you, right?" Mogami Jun pretended not to hear and just answered with a smile.

"Chun-chan is looking down on people again!" Mayu couldn't help but protest.

While chatting, the two people walked to the middle of a dense group of small single-family houses.
