The strongest high school student in Japan

"Chun..." Asana took a step forward and walked in front of him without making any sound, then greeted him quietly, "I'm fine, don't worry."

After saying this, she shook her head gently, signaling the other party not to get excited.

Seeing Asana's hesitant expression, Mogami Jun calmed down.

It doesn't look like Asana was taken hostage.

Come to think of it, given Asana's identity, even if Hyoudou Takako was so reckless, he wouldn't kidnap her without even saying hello.

After confirming that Asana was safe, he looked at Asana suspiciously.

"Asana, why did you follow her here?"

Asana wanted to answer, but seemed to realize that the current situation was not appropriate, so her expression became extremely strange.

"You are really in love. You have so much to say when you meet..." At this time, Hyoudou Takako's mocking voice reached the ears of the two again. "Well, I don't have much to do now anyway, you two can chat alone--"

As she spoke, she stood up from her desk and motioned for Hanyu Hirofumi to leave with her.

Hanyu Hirofumi hesitated for a moment, looked at Asana, then lowered his head and followed Hyoudou Takako out.

The room suddenly became quiet again.

After the others left, Asana's originally tense mood suddenly relaxed. She looked at Mogami Jun and smiled slightly, as if she was happy that the two of them met again.

"Chun... I'm sorry for coming here so suddenly and causing you trouble. Actually..."

Izumo Asana had just said what she wanted to say, but was immediately interrupted by Mogami Jun - he raised a finger to his mouth, signaling Asana not to speak yet.

"Let's go out and talk too."

"Huh?" Asana was a little surprised, but quickly nodded. "Okay."

Jun Mogami turned around and walked out of the room with Asana.

Although Hyoudou Takako did not seem to have any hostility, she had arrived much earlier than him after all. Who knew if she had done anything in the room? Even simply leaving a cell phone with recording turned on would be troublesome.

He took Asana downstairs and came to the open space between the infirmary and the laboratory building next to it.

After looking around and making sure no one was paying attention to him, he looked at Asana again.

"Asana, tell me now, why did you follow Hyoudou Takako here without saying a word?"

You can't blame him for being too cautious. After all, today's unexpected situation made him a little overwhelmed.

Asana was aware of all the grievances between herself and Hyoudou Takako. She even went to Umemiya Natsuki's house in person and witnessed her acting as an arbitrator and solving her own troubles.

Therefore, if Asana told Hyoudou Takako all the truth that she knew, then she wouldn't need to conduct any investigation at all and would immediately find me to hold her accountable.

Of course, he absolutely believed that Asana would not do such a thing - but even so, it was absolutely necessary to find out what exactly happened between Hyoudou Takako and Asana.

"Actually...actually, I'm a little confused too..." Asana lowered her eyes somewhat embarrassedly, then moved closer to him, "Just yesterday, I was still in school, and suddenly I received a call, and the person who called claimed to be Hyoudou Takako..."

"How did she know your number?" Jun Mogami interjected.

"I don't know either." Chaona shook his head blankly, "But given her status, if she really wants to know, she must have her own way."

"Then what did she say?" Mogami Jun asked again.

"I was very surprised and nervous because I had heard Jun talk about her before, so of course I was very wary of her." Asana replied in a low voice, "But she was quite polite. She just told me that she heard from a friend that I...I am your fiancée...and asked me if it was true."

As she spoke, her voice got lower and lower, and she seemed a little shy. "I was suddenly asked this kind of question, and of course I was a little embarrassed, so I asked her what she wanted to do, and then she seemed to agree and started to get straight to the point."

She didn't seem to be very annoyed about this, but Jun Mogami didn't care about this detail at the moment, so he continued to listen.

"She said that she and you had a lot of disputes recently, and you angered her time and again, but because she admired you as a junior, she tolerated it many times. But this time was different, she felt seriously offended, and she suspected that you were one of the main participants." Asana continued, "On the phone, she threatened that if she confirmed that it was you who was against her, she would never forgive you this time, and she would definitely make you feel terrible pain. She told me in advance so that I could be mentally prepared. It's not too late to regret the engagement now..."

Asana's face looked extremely ugly. It was obvious that she was still a little frightened when she recalled the scene of the phone call.

Although her tone of voice when she recounted the incident was flat, one can still imagine her panic and fear when she suddenly received the call.

Mogami Jun frowned.

Based on her understanding of Hyoudou Takako, even if he really wanted to deal with her, he wouldn't be so boring as to scare the little girl with harsh words.

"She is trying to scare you, don't be afraid."

"I know... I know she was trying to scare me on purpose... but... but I'm really worried!" Asana raised her eyelids and looked at the boy. "It would be fine if I didn't know anything, but I know what happened! Under the circumstances at the time, how could I not be worried?"

"Did she trick you into telling her anything?" Mogami Jun asked quickly.

"That's not the case. Chun, don't you want to underestimate me, or do you still refuse to trust me?" Asana pouted, looking unhappy. "I was very angry when she said that suddenly, so I responded to her forcefully. I told her that it was absolutely impossible to break off the engagement, and that I would stand firmly on Chun's side no matter what happened. I also told her not to act rashly. If she did anything out of line to you, our Izumo family would never tolerate it and would do our best to fight her! Not only myself, but I also have close friends who will not ignore it, so she can't act recklessly at that time."

Jun Mogami felt a mixture of emotions and didn't know what to say.

Although I am very grateful to Asana for her determination to defend my good intentions, I still feel a bit amused and helpless about what Asana said.

Well, now is not the time to dwell on this.

"Thank you for your protection, Asana. So what happened next?"

"After we argued on the phone for a while, she suddenly proposed a compromise, saying that if I was willing to come over to mediate, she could forgive your offense. After all, she didn't want the relationship between the senior and the junior to become so awkward. After she said that, I agreed without thinking. After all... I felt that things had come to this point. Even if mediation failed, as long as I stood by Chun's side, it would be of some help. Even in the worst case scenario, at least we could bear the consequences together..."

At this point, she looked at Mogami Jun a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Jun. After we talked about it, she said she could make concessions, but I couldn't inform you in advance, otherwise the agreement would be invalid, so I didn't call you, but followed her here..."

"It doesn't matter. On the contrary, I should thank you for your kindness." Mogami Jun shook his head. He already understood what was going on.

On the phone, Hyodo Takako said that she was sure that she was the enemy behind the scenes, and it seemed to be just a bad joke, and the purpose was to deceive Asana and trick Asana into following her.

Asana had never dealt with Hyodou Takako before, and because she was concerned about him, she was misled without realizing it and agreed to Hyodou Takako's proposal. As for not allowing her to tell him in advance, it was probably because she was afraid that she would discover the trick and stop Asana from coming.

But why on earth would she go to all the trouble to do such a thing?

He had no way of guessing this. After all, Hyoudou Takako's temper and behavior were so strange that it was difficult to figure it out with common sense.

"Come to think of it, I had a lot of worries when I followed you all the way here, but the moment I saw you just now, I felt relieved for some reason." Asana whispered, "No matter how much trouble there is this time, Jun will definitely be able to solve it... and I will no longer be a bystander this time, I will definitely do my best to help you."

Asana's expression showed worry, but also a little joy and relief.

Looking at this sudden incident, she actually regarded it as the excitement of "taking an adventure with Chun".

"Ah, you two look really close. Did you get into the mood so quickly?" Just as Mogami Jun was about to answer, the sharp voice of Hyoudou Takako was heard from a distance.

Mogami Jun turned around and saw that she was walking slowly towards this side from the other side.

She walked up to the two men and looked at them with interest.

"You should have known that we had a quarrel when we were talking on the phone. But you definitely don't know how fierce our quarrel was. I didn't expect that the delicate young lady would also show her teeth and be so fierce that I could hardly get a word in." Hyoudou Takako smiled and teased at Mogami Jun, "Your love and friendship are so deep that it moved me. Are you moved?"

"I'm very touched. But I don't understand why Senior Hyoudou would play such a malicious joke on her?" Mogami Jun asked impatiently, "Does bullying a little sister make you feel fun?"

"That's certainly not my purpose." Hyoudou Takako shook her head. "I just wanted to verify what she really thought of you. The fact surprised me a little. I really didn't expect that someone as arrogant, sarcastic and conceited as you would be so loved by others, and not just one person. It's hard to understand!"

"Senior, please stop judging others by your own standards, okay?" Asana suddenly interrupted, "Jun is not that kind of person!"

As she spoke, she tried to raise her head, using this method to show her determination not to give in. "I have already made it very clear on the phone before, no matter what you want to do to Chun, I will never sit idly by, so if you want to harm Chun, then add my share. Anyway, you are used to doing whatever you want, so one more victim will not matter to you, right?"

“Ah, don’t worry, little sister. Now is not the time for you to stand up and protect your loved one.” Hyoudou Takako didn’t care about Asana’s sarcasm at all. Instead, she was still smiling. “Since you are all here, why don’t we just weigh them on the scales to see whose sincerity carries more weight? Let me have some fun too, hahahaha!”

346, Gathering Together

"Since you're all here, why don't we just weigh them on the scales to see whose sincerity carries more weight? Let me have some fun too, hahahaha!"

Hyoudou Takako's wild laughter still sounded as uncomfortable as usual.

What's more, what she said was even more infuriating.

"Do I need you to test my sincerity? Senior Hyoudou, when did you develop such a boring interest in interfering in other people's private lives?" He couldn't help but retort, "If you want to fall in love, there are probably many people willing to be your lover. Why bother to experience it on others?"

Since the relationship had already been torn apart, his words became much harsher and more merciless.

However, instead of being angered, Hyoudou Takako laughed even harder.

Under the two people's puzzled gazes, she laughed for a long time, then sneered and shook her head, "I didn't say I would weigh your sincerity. Aren't you ashamed? How can a guy like you be qualified to compete with Miss Izumo in sincerity? I have witnessed how she loudly scolded me in order to protect you without regard for etiquette and manners - a person like you who is easily attracted to others, how can you be worthy of her infatuation?"

——Jun Mogami was speechless for a moment.

He would be a little unsure if he said that he was as good and sincere to Asana as she was to him.

But, this has nothing to do with you, right?!

Just as he was about to refute again, Hyoudou Takako turned away from the two of them and looked back not far away.

"Sagihara Shion, what do you think?"

Jun Mogami and Asana Izumo were shocked and subconsciously looked in the direction of her sight.

Sagihara Shion also noticed the two people. In an instant, she seemed to understand something, stopped, glared at Hyoudou Takako, and then seemed to be hesitating about how to act.

After hesitating for a moment, she still walked over, but her face was a little pale and her expression was a little complicated. She looked at the two people without saying anything.

"Senpaihara-senpai?" Mogami Jun couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?"

"Of course I called her over." Hyoudou Takako answered first, "Just like Miss Izumo, I told her I was going to teach you a lesson, and then she came over without me saying anything else - how about that, isn't this sincerity also worthy of admiration?"

"What's the fun in playing such a bad joke?" Mogami Jun couldn't hold it in any longer and shouted at the other party, "Senior, if you have any opinions about me, just vent them on me. Aren't you afraid of losing face by tricking irrelevant people into getting involved?"

"We've been together for so long, and you still don't understand my hobbies? Bad jokes are what I enjoy~" Instead of being angry, Hyoudou Takako looked at him with interest, "Besides, there are so many grievances between Sagihara Shion and me, can't I just relax for a bit?"

As expected, it still makes things difficult for Senior Sagihara. It seems that Hyoudou Takako has a strange feeling for Sagihara Shion and takes pleasure in torturing her soul.

Maybe it's because of the little conflict between the two of them back then that she is still brooding over it.

At this point, her motives are no longer important. The key is to figure out what this guy wants to do now.

During the conversation between the two, Sagihara Shion seemed to understand something.

She no longer hesitated, she bit her lip lightly, and then looked at Izumo Asana.

"Asana, I'm really sorry that you have been implicated because of the dispute between me and Hyoudou-senpai..."

"Senpaihara-senpai, it's okay." Asana replied in a low voice, "As long as nothing happens to you, I'll be relieved."

"It's really embarrassing to say that since we met, not only have I never shown you an admirable side, but I have also shown you an embarrassing side time and time again." Sagihara Shion smiled bitterly, "Although you are a person who definitely would not despise me for more than that, but even if I think about it myself, I still feel a little ashamed."

"Senior, please don't say that." Asana shook her head gently. "You obviously didn't do anything wrong, why are you apologizing for other people's mistakes? She should be the one to apologize. When I heard you say that she was arrogant and domineering before, I didn't feel it was true. Now I see that she is even more excessive than you said. It turns out that you have been holding back..."

"Yes, she is such a person, from the beginning. You can see that her greatest hobby is to see others struggling in pain. The more pain others suffer, the happier she is." Sagihara Shion nodded, "So we must not let her succeed. No matter what happens, we must not beg for mercy from her, understand?"

"Okay, I understand!" Asana nodded heavily, then turned around and looked at Hyoudou Takako with an unconvinced look on his face.

"Are you done mumbling?" Hyoudou Takako asked leisurely.

"Senior Hyoudou, you tricked Asana here just to deliberately see us quarreling, right?" Sagihara Shion looked at her seriously and said word by word, "I don't care what you plan to do, but Asana... Asana is innocent. I will never do anything bad to her because of your instigation--"

"Senior, that's very well said." Jun Mogami, who had been watching the two people's conversation from the side, was also very moved.

Although Sagihara Shion's wealth and status cannot be compared with Hyoudou Takako or even Izumo Asana, she has incomparable pride and nobility in her soul, and her awe-inspiring attitude makes people admire her.

The three of them reached a unified will in an instant, then stood together and looked at Hyoudou Takako at the same time, their eyes full of challenges.

"Unfavorable to her?" Under the stares of the three people, Hyoudou Takako remained calm. She shrugged her shoulders and said, "Is this the image I should have in your mind?"

Then, she slowly raised her hand and pointed at Mogami Jun, "Yes, I have bullied many people, but I have always treated him differently and taken good care of him. Can you deny this? Even now, we are still in a cooperative state. For the sake of our cooperation plan, I have worked hard... But you have always regarded me as your enemy? Oh, this really makes me sad..."

Hyodou Takako's words made Mogami Jun a little confused. He really couldn't understand what tricks she was suddenly playing.

"What the hell are you doing again?"

================================================== =====

With a sense of relief, Hirofumi Hanyu set out on the road out of the school gate.

I had already prepared for the worst, waiting for Hyodou Takako's violent questioning.

Just now when he was called away by Hyoudou Takako, his heart was already filled with tragic heroism, and he was determined not to betray his friend even at the cost of his own life.

However, to his surprise, Hyoudou Takako was unexpectedly easy to talk to today.

The so-called interrogation was just a perfunctory questioning, and Hyodou Takako did not ask him carefully about the answers he had prepared long ago, and she didn't even seem to be interested in writing them down.

What made him even more surprised was that after he finished speaking, Hyoudou Takako simply asked him to leave, as if she was not interested in the interrogation itself.

She didn't seem to care that much about the so-called theft of the drugs, and her interest was instead focused on other things - Hanyu Hirofumi came to this conclusion in his mind.

But why was this happening? He couldn't figure it out.

It was impossible to understand Hyoudou Takako's behavior using common sense, and he really couldn't understand it.

Since Hyoudou Takako asked him to leave so easily, it seems that the situation is not as serious as he imagined. As long as he continues to be cautious, he should be able to avoid this crisis.

However, when he left, Mogami Jun was left there, and it seemed that Hyoudou Takako had something to tell him.

I hope that guy Mogami is okay—he suddenly felt uneasy again.

"Monitor!"
