"Please don't be like this, senior sister, I'm really sorry." Mogami Jun grabbed Sagihara Shion's hand tightly, "At least please let me finish what I said..."

Sagihara Shion took a few sharp breaths, then finally regained some of her sanity and sat down again.

"I'm sorry, Chunjun, I... I lost my composure." She looked at the boy in front of her with a complicated look in her eyes. "I'm not angry for him. I don't care about his fate for a second. I'm angry for you! There are obviously many ways to solve it, why choose this method? Why do you have to risk your life for that kind of person?"

"I considered other methods at the time and even informed the chairman, but I felt that we couldn't take the risk of letting him get close to you, not even the slightest risk. After all, things were very urgent at the time, so... I had to do this." Mogami Jun smiled apologetically.

He didn't tell the senior that he had already prepared a handy weapon in school, otherwise she would probably feel even more guilty.

"You've read so many law books, don't you know what armed attack on others is? Why let your bright future be ruined by such a person?" Sagihara Shion did not accept Mogami Jun's explanation and was still very angry. "If you take even a little more risk for him, I will owe you more. Don't you understand?"

"This is a kind of exchange. Using a small probability of risk in exchange for the safety of the senior sister, I certainly think it is worthwhile." Mogami Jun replied with a smile, trying to help the senior sister calm down. "This is an action that follows my own inner considerations, and I take full responsibility. Even if it is the senior sister, I don't want to be pointed at-"

Sagihara Shion was suddenly speechless.

She lowered her head, blinked, and seemed about to cry.

"How can I let you go if you're like this?" she whispered after a moment.

Mogami Jun was silent for a moment.

"Was it the day when it rained? You suddenly called me and asked me if anything happened." After a moment, Sagihara Shion spoke again, "I had a bad feeling at the time, but you said nothing happened, so I didn't delve into it..."

"Yes, that night." Mogami Jun nodded. "I'd better finish telling you everything - that night I attacked him and imprisoned him in the room next to the school auditorium."

"You did such a thing? You are so brave!" Sagihara Shion was even more shocked. "So how is he now? How are you going to deal with him?"

In fact, I have done even more daring things... Jun Mogami complained in his heart.

However, he also realized that in Sagihara Shion's heart, there was really no place for the so-called "father".

When he first said it, the senior sister only cared about the risk she put herself in, and didn't care about her father's safety at all. Now she didn't show any anxiety or indignation about her father being attacked, as if she was just talking about an irrelevant person. If she had any worries, it was only that she would encounter some legal problems and her future would be damaged.

When he read novels or watched TV programs in the past, he always saw people being bullied and hurt by their parents, or being abandoned, leaving them with lifelong scars. However, the bystanders still asked the victims to forgive them on the grounds that "he/she is your father/mother after all", and the victims actually forgave them.

He once wondered how such a stupid masochist could exist in the world. Fortunately, Senior Sister Sagihara did not have such twisted masochistic thoughts.

Sagihara Masao's actions had already exhausted all of Sagihara Shion's love and respect for her father. It was impossible for her to have any concern or sympathy for him anymore.

If the ruler regards his subjects as his own hands and feet, then the subjects will regard the ruler as their own heart and soul; if the ruler regards his subjects as dogs and horses, then the subjects will regard the ruler as a fellow countryman; if the ruler regards his subjects as dirt, then the subjects will regard the ruler as an enemy. It should be so.

Since Sagihara Shion had no sympathy for Sagihara Masao, Mogami Jun's last bit of worry disappeared and he calmed down. Then, he told Sagihara Shion everything he had learned from interrogating Sagihara Masao and how Sagihara Masao was sent to Mr. Tonegawa.

"In other words, Mr. Tonegawa accepted him and promised to help you clean up the mess and protect you from any risks, right?" asked Sagihara Shion.

She didn't care about her father's tragic experience, but focused mainly on this.

"It seems to be like this at the moment." Mogami Jun nodded, "So, senior, I'm not worried about myself, but about you."

"Why?" Sagihara Shion asked again.

"Sagirahara Masao disappeared in our school, and no news leaked out. Now if someone wants to find his whereabouts, who would be the first person that comes to mind?" Mogami Jun asked back.

Sagihara Shion suddenly became enlightened.

"It should be... me... I see. I understand what Jun-kun meant."

"Yes, for the sake of Senior's safety, I attacked him, but if the price is that Senior faces greater danger, then I have backfired..." Mogami Jun sighed in distress, "Senior, I'm sorry... I may have made things worse..."

He was indeed a little depressed.

After interrogating Sagihara Masao, he realized that Sagihara Masao had no intention of attacking Sagihara-senpai (at least not now), but the matter was already done, and now he had let Sagihara-senpai fall into Kurosaki Yoshihiro's sight and faced real danger.

Although it is meaningless to be wise after the event, the objective fact is that he actually caused trouble for his senior.

"Don't apologize!" Just as Mogami Jun was sighing in frustration, Sagihara Shion suddenly covered Mogami Jun's mouth with her hand.

"You have nothing to apologize to me for... No one else in the world would care about my safety so much except you." Sagihara Shion looked at the boy seriously and said solemnly, "If I were to find fault with or even feel disgusted with such unreserved kindness, wouldn't that mean I have no human heart? Junjun, do you want me to become that unreasonable person? Do you want that?"

She glared at Mogami Jun for a moment before lowering her hand.

"Okay, senior, I won't apologize then." Mogami Jun could only nod, "Then let's face the facts and think of ways to remedy the situation. According to the chairman today, there are indeed people outside trying to find you, so I think danger is indeed approaching you--"

"That's not a problem for me at all. On the contrary, it's a good thing for me." Sagihara Shion shook her head slightly.

"What do you mean?" Mogami Jun didn't understand.

"I have been hiding behind you for too long, and letting you take risks for me is definitely not what I want to see. No matter how serious the malice outside is, at least this time we are facing it together, and that's enough." Sagihara Shion sighed emotionally, "Junjun, no matter what happens, I think we will always have a way, because we will stand together, trust and help each other, right?"

Although she knew in her heart that this idealistic thought had no basis in reality, Sagihara Shion was willing to believe it.

Therefore, Jun Mogami was willing to believe it.

"Senior, I think so too." Finally, he nodded. "But, at this time, I still don't want you to be distracted, so I have been hesitating whether to tell you..."

"I want to enter the University of Tokyo because I want to be someone who can change my own destiny, someone who can help you. If I can't even know or dare not know my own affairs, then isn't that putting the cart before the horse?" Sagihara Shion asked back, "Besides, Jun-kun, don't underestimate me. I'm not afraid. Do you think the number three figure in the Teiai Group can scare me to death? He is not qualified! I have also died once at the hands of their eldest lady..."

Mogami Jun thought about it and felt that it was right.

Sagihara Shion has never flinched when facing Hyoudou Takako, and has always confronted him head-on. How could she be afraid of their lackey?

"Since you are so calm, I feel relieved. However, you still have to be careful." Then, he reminded the senior sister, "Let's keep in touch recently. If there is anything wrong, notify me immediately. Also, don't leave the school easily--"

"I know." Sagihara Shion smiled, "Originally I was a prisoner in the school, and now nothing has changed, right?"

Although Sagihara Shion said it lightly, Mogami Jun suddenly felt a little distressed, so he did not respond.

One day, he would let his senior sister stand upright in the sun without anyone being able to harm her.

"Jun Jun, actually you make me feel relieved." Sagihara Shion suddenly said again.

"Huh? What?"

"That night, I was worried that you were in cahoots with Hyoudou Takako and were bribed by her money. Now it seems that you were just pretending to be nice..." Sagihara Shion seemed quite happy. "I knew that Jun-kun wouldn't be that kind of person."

"Senior, please don't think too highly of me. I'm not someone who can't be corrupted or bought—" Mogami Jun smiled and shook his head, "It's just that the Hyoudou family has been rampant for so many years. Although they still look so arrogant now, with Hyoudou Kazutsugu's time running out, they are already on the decline. I have no interest in following Hyoudou Takako and getting on their pirate ship—besides, I will never forget her rudeness to the two of us. I must make her pay the price and repay the debt she owed to us all these years!"

"It's great that you think so!" Sagihara Shion was quite touched and nodded repeatedly, "She has done so many bad things, she will definitely not have a good ending."

The two of them smiled at each other, and in an instant they put aside their worries and troubles, as if nothing in the world could stump them.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say, Senior, let's start over." Mogami Jun pointed to the test book in her hand. "Take a look at the notes I wrote, and if there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me."

"Well, the time is almost up, so we should hurry up." Sagihara Shion looked out the window, then let out a long sigh and regained her composure.

She picked up the test book, carefully looked at the pronunciation and notes marked by Mogami Jun, and subconsciously made sounds.

Although the voice was very pleasant, the strange intonation when she read Chinese characters and classical Chinese still made Mogami Jun laugh, but he had to do his best not to show it.

After she finished reading one article, Mogami Jun prepared to write another one, but just as he was about to start writing, he was stopped by Sagihara Shion.

"Jun-kun, use mine." Sagihara Shion handed her pen to Mogami Jun with full persistence, "I won't interfere with what gift you like, but at least don't write with it in my notebook."

After a pause, she explained in a low voice, "I like Asana very much and have no problem with her, but... this is something that only belongs to us. Please satisfy my little willfulness."

Extra (2) The Daily Life of Shion Mogami

[Special note: This story and the previous extra are in different world lines, so don’t be surprised! ]

It was another ordinary morning.

As soon as the sky brightened, waves of pedestrians flowed in and out of the traffic hubs that covered every corner of the city like a spider web. Tokyo, this incomparable metropolis, the modern Babylon, ushered in a new day in the hustle and bustle.

The surging crowds of people and cars everywhere, as if they had hit a reef, automatically diverted next to the high-end residential areas in the city center. Those towering high-rise apartment buildings, like isolated islands in the sea, stood in the center of Tokyo, undisturbed by the busyness of ordinary people.

"Chun...Chun?"

The move to the stables forest Qiqi

Like a gentle call from the clouds, Jun Mogami, who was soundly sleeping, slightly opened his eyes.

His vision quickly focused from the blur, and then he saw the face of his wife Mogami Shion.

Although both of them are already old and have children, in his eyes, his wife is still as beautiful as before.

Then he smiled with joy.

"Good morning, Senior~"

This strange name did not make Mogami Shion happy. On the contrary, she turned her eyes away in embarrassment.

"Really? Didn't I tell you not to call me that?"

"But it's really fun to be called that..." Mogami Jun still smiled and replied, "Isn't Senior Sister happy?"

"I really can't do anything about you..." Mogami Shion sighed helplessly, then patted his back heavily, urging him not to delay, "Hurry up and get up, I've prepared breakfast."

Shion Mogami, currently serving as a special national tax inspector at the National Tax Agency's Inspection Division, Ministry of Finance, is responsible for investigating numerous cases of huge tax evasion by companies and individuals. She is known for her meticulousness and ruthlessness at work, and her stern attitude at work commands a measure of respect from her superiors and colleagues.

However, in front of her closest family members, she always shows her warm and maternal side.

[Japan's taxation is handled by the National Tax Agency of the Ministry of Finance. The National Tax Agency has two departments: the Investigation Division and the Inspection Division. The Investigation Division is responsible for confirming the accuracy of taxpayers' tax returns, while the Inspection Division is responsible for tracking large-scale tax evasion cases. Special National Tax Inspectors are responsible for the cases.]

Jun Mogami put on his clothes, then walked to the balcony and stretched lazily in the thin sunlight.

The Mogami family lives in a suite on the top floor of the building, from where he can see the harbor coast in the distance. Every morning he looks at the sea to adjust his mood for the day, and today is no exception.

After driving away the last bit of sleepiness, he returned to the restaurant, where his wife was already waiting.

Because she had just made breakfast, she was now wearing an apron over her thin white shirt, full of homely atmosphere.

"Thank you for your hard work." Jun Mogami thanked her and sat down next to his wife, then picked up the sandwich and started to eat it.

"The minister was strongly questioned by the opposition party in Parliament today. He looked very embarrassed on TV. This is a huge loss of face for him."

Mogami Shion didn't eat right away, but whispered in his ear, "It seems that he was caught because of his many false statements."

"Ah, I knew about this a long time ago, and I arranged it on purpose." Jun Mogami whispered in his wife's ear.

"So that's how it is..." Mogami Shion didn't seem surprised at all, instead she looked like she had expected it. "Why?"

"He's been in the limelight recently, and with his handsome appearance, his popularity within the party has been rising year by year, and his support rate among the people has also been increasing. Many people have already said that they want to support him as the next prime minister, so the Prime Minister secretly told me that he hopes I can find a way to suppress his arrogance. It would be best if the people think that he is a confused and incompetent show-off..." Mogami Jun explained in a low voice.

"So you tried to trip him up?" Mogami Shion asked calmly, as if she was talking about something insignificant.

"Between the Prime Minister and the Minister, of course I choose the former. Isn't this a matter of course—" Mogami Jun shrugged. "Besides, he didn't find so many key data errors. It's not an exaggeration to say that he is a confused and incompetent show-off, right? I just revealed his true nature to the people in advance."

"But a flower stand also has its advantages. At least it won't cause you any trouble." Mogami Shion shook her head, seeming a little worried. "If the Minister is dismissed by the Prime Minister due to external pressure, the next Minister may not be so easy to get along with."

"This country needs nothing but showpieces. I dare say there are at least two or three hundred of them in Congress. The worst that can happen is that the Prime Minister can just send another one." Mogami Jun disagreed. "With the Prime Minister's self-centered style, he won't allow any other threats to exist in his cabinet, so there's no need to worry about that."

"That's true." Mogami Shion finally nodded, agreeing with her husband's opinion, "But, I'm afraid he will regard us as enemies in the future, so we have to be careful."

"When playing this kind of game and enjoying the fruits of victory, you have to be prepared for the possibility of losing one day. If he loses, it's his own problem. Who has the right to blame us?" Mogami Jun sneered, "Besides, there are too many people who hate me. What difference does one more person make? Anyway, we only have two options: win or lose. There's nothing to be afraid of."

"I won't let us lose." Mogami Shion whispered. "No one can."

Jun Mogami did not answer immediately, but just smiled and held his wife's hand. The two of them held hands like this, feeling the warmth of each other's palms.

"Well, it's a rare good day, let's not talk about such a disappointing thing. It's a rare day off for us to have together, let's do something more meaningful." After a moment, Mogami Jun picked up the sandwich he had just nibbled, and then looked at his wife, "Ah~"

"What's the point of this..."

Mogami Shion couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

Then, she subconsciously looked at the door and slowly opened her mouth.

The half-eaten sandwich of her husband went into her mouth and she chewed it gently, their saliva mixing together.

At this moment, she suddenly noticed from the corner of her eye that a small figure had appeared at the door.

The uncontrollable feeling of shame made Mogami Shion's face turn red. She quickly pulled her head back, then tried to compose herself, and then pretended to be calm and looked at the child at the door again.

"Liang, you're finally here. Let's eat quickly, or the food will get cold and won't taste good."

As she spoke, she glared at her husband fiercely.

However, Jun Mogami didn't seem to care at all. He picked up the sandwich that his wife had just chewed and swallowed it himself.

The "Suzu" she was referring to was their daughter, Mogami Suzu.

She is only ten years old now, an age when she has a little understanding of the world and is full of curiosity and fear about it.

"Good morning, Mom and Dad." The little girl walked in in slippers and sat opposite her parents.

Because of the incident just now, it seemed that both mother and daughter were a little embarrassed, so everyone was eating breakfast quietly.

Soon, breakfast was over.

"It's delicious as always." Mogami Jun said to his wife with a smile, "I'm sorry to bother you so early in the morning. Now I'll clean up. You take a good rest, Shion."

Shion Mogami was very happy in her heart, but she couldn't show it on her face. She just nodded to her husband and walked out of the restaurant with her daughter.

"Ryo, how's your homework going?" In the living room, Mogami Shion asked her daughter casually.

"I think I've almost finished writing it." Mogami Ryo answered casually.
