The strongest high school student in Japan

Then, he discovered that Sagihara-senpai was also there.

Now he understood why the chairman had called him here.

"Jun-kun, long time no see!" Upon seeing Mogami Jun, Sagihara Shion, who had originally had a serious expression, immediately showed a happy smile and nodded at him.

"Good afternoon, senior." Junya Mogami immediately greeted the senior.

"Did the chairman tell you why he asked you to come here?" Sagihara Shion smiled bitterly, "I was probably asked to come here because of Hyoudou Takako's matter..."

"I guess that's why I was called here." Mogami Jun answered calmly, "Yesterday, I convinced the chairman, and he decided to let me come and entertain the young lady."

He did not explain the details of what happened to Senior Sagihara. After all, he had promised the chairman to keep the cheating incident confidential, so it didn't matter if Senior Sagihara didn't know about it.

"What!" Compared to Mogami Jun's calmness, Sagihara Shion was quite shocked, "Why did the chairman do this... Jun-kun?"

"I asked for it on my own initiative, don't blame him." Mogami Jun smiled and looked at Sagihara Shion with a relaxed look, "Senior, don't you think it's boring to fight alone? I have a feeling that I will be able to show off my skills again this time, okay?"

Looking at his smirk, Sagihara Shion wanted to scold him, but in the end she couldn't say anything.

"Thank you. You've taken such great care of me that I don't even know where to start to repay you," she whispered.

Then, she shook her head again and looked at Mogami Jun with a rare serious attitude, "But, promise me that you won't treat her with a nonchalant attitude, okay? She is really a very scary person, you won't feel it if you haven't seen her... If you don't take it seriously, then I would rather you stay out of it and don't care about me! Promise me!"

Being warned so seriously by Sagihara Shion, Mogami Jun felt quite dignified.

He retracted his smile and nodded to Sagihara Shion. "Okay, senior, I promise you, I won't be careless."

"That's good..." Sagihara Shion breathed a sigh of relief.

Just at this moment, the office door opened again, and then two people walked in, chatting and laughing.

The one who was half a body length ahead was the chairman, and the one walking behind him was a middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man looked to be in his forties, with a square face and a crew cut. He looked stern but not vicious.

He was wearing a well-tailored grey suit with a windbreaker on the outside. He looked quite capable, and his every move was full of courage and drive. He looked like a resolute and efficient member of the leadership.

The two people walked up to Jun Mogami and Shion Sagihara.

As the distance got closer, the pressure from the middle-aged man became greater and greater.

Fortunately, both Mogami Jun and Sagihara Shion were the type of people who had seen the world at a young age, so they did not seem panicked.

"You two are here now, very good, very punctual." Chairman Horikawa Nobuyasu pointed to the middle-aged man next to him. "Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Tonegawa, a senior employee of the Teiai Group. By the way, he is also an alumnus of our school, so he can be considered as your senior... He was admitted to the University of Tokyo from our school, and he is an elite that our school is proud of..."

"Chairman, you are too kind. There are countless geniuses among the students of our school. Although I have achieved some success, I am not proud of it." The middle-aged man Tonegawa answered modestly.

Then, he looked back at the boy and girl, sized them up with his hawk-like sharp eyes, and then spoke again.

"You two are Saginahara-san and... Mogami-san, who are scheduled to entertain Miss Takako this time, right? Good afternoon."

"Yes." The two people answered at the same time. "Mr. Tonegawa, good afternoon."

In his every move, Jun Mogami felt a breath, a breath very similar to that of his father.

Novel 9

To put it simply, it is a temperament that is calm, rational and decisive, and also a temperament that has become slightly introverted but still ambitious due to years of social experience.

They are probably the elite people who are the backbone of society.

Although the chairman did not mention Mr. Tonegawa's specific position, judging from his solemn introduction, his position in the Teiai Group must not be low.

This is not someone who can be easily fooled.

"You two are both very impressive and can represent the image of our school." After looking at their appearance and behavior, Mr. Tonegawa nodded slightly, "I'm sure the young lady will be very satisfied if you come to greet her."

Then he reached into the inside pocket of his suit, took out a business card holder, and handed a business card to each of them.

"This is my business card. Please accept it if you don't mind."

He said it modestly, but Mogami Jun and Sagihara Shion certainly wouldn't be rude to refuse, so they took it immediately.

The paper material of the business card is very exquisite, but the business card itself is quite simple. There is no honorary title, official position or other fancy things on it. It is just an ordinary name and a phone number, and the rest is a large blank space.

"Tonegawa Yukio." Jun Mogami muttered the name silently and then memorized it in his heart.

"Don't be nervous, I'm here today to visit my alma mater in a private capacity, and I won't put any pressure on you." After they accepted the business card, Tonegawa Yukio smiled slightly, "To put it another way, as a senior, I will of course try my best to take care of the outstanding juniors in our school, so please relax."

Although he tried hard to ease the atmosphere, even when he was smiling, the fierce and oppressive pressure still lingered on him, making it difficult for him to relax.

Mr. Tonegawa must be a strict and rigorous boss.

"Tonegawa, tell them what you need to reveal." As if sensing the awkwardness between the three people, the chairman of the board spoke up, "They are still students after all, and their time is limited."

"Okay, Chairman." Tonegawa Yukio nodded slightly, then continued to look at the two people, "First, let me introduce myself - I have been in the Teiai Group since I graduated from university, and have followed Chairman Hyodo for decades. Now I am the chairman's chief assistant. This title confuses many people. Some people say that I am the second in command of the group, but I think I am more like a general steward... In short, every time the chairman has a strategic plan or a sudden idea, I am responsible for implementing these ideas into specific blueprints, and then sending people and allocating resources to realize these blueprints. This is basically my job."

Wow, that sounds amazing!

Although the middle-aged man behaved quite modestly, the position of "chief steward of a big chaebol" is definitely not something that an ordinary person can be capable of.

"Then may I ask if you have any instructions for us this time?" Mogami Jun asked quickly.

"There's nothing much to say at the moment, but..." Mr. Tonegawa shook his head slightly, then changed the subject, "As President Hyodo's direct subordinate, I have the obligation to create a good enough environment for Miss Takako so that she can have fun to her heart's content; but at the same time, as the president's direct subordinate, I also have the obligation to restrain Miss so that she doesn't go too far and cause trouble for the president and the Teiai Group."

"What does this mean?" Mogami Jun asked.

"To put it simply, I have to impose some kind of restraint on the young lady." Tonegawa Yukio explained calmly, "This is also the president's order to me. At the same time, Young Miss Takako does not need to know that I am involved."

It's getting weirder and weirder...

Mogami Jun and Sagihara Shion looked at each other.

"Can you tell me more about the situation? I'm a little confused now." Under such circumstances, Jun Mogami didn't bother to be polite with Yukio Tonegawa and asked him directly.

"Please take a seat first—" Mr. Tonegawa pointed to the sofa next to him.

46. ​​Return

"Please take a seat first—" Mr. Tonegawa pointed to the sofa next to him.

Jun Mogami and Shion Sagihara looked at each other, then sat on the sofa as Tonegawa Yukio requested.

Then, the office door opened again, and the female secretary came in with a tray with four teacups. She silently placed the cups in front of the four people on the coffee table, and then left silently.

"To be honest, I'm also quite curious, Tonegawa." After the door was closed again, Chairman Horikawa Nobuyasu was the first to break the silence, "What sudden whim did your eldest daughter have to come back to school? Shouldn't she be enjoying her college life?"

"To be honest, I can't guess what Miss Takako is thinking." Tonegawa Yukio smiled bitterly, looking a little embarrassed and distressed. "The young lady has been willful since she was a child. Her ideas are almost as wild as the president's. It's really hard for people to guess. We are also very troubled..."

After spitting a little, he quickly changed the subject. "However, if we analyze it carefully, it may also be related to the young lady's university studies."

"What do you mean? Is there any problem with her in college?" The chairman was puzzled, so he asked, "By the way, I haven't paid attention to her news in the past few years. How is her academic performance in college?"

"She is still as good as she was in junior high and high school," Tonegawa Yukio replied solemnly. "Generally speaking, after entering university, many people will slack off, forget about studying, and indulge in extravagant consumption. But the young lady is still as self-disciplined as before, so she has made considerable progress in academics, which is really rare and precious. Even President Hyodou is very proud of her and thinks she is the best among his descendants."

Then, he changed the subject and said, "However, there is one thing that Miss Takako did disappoint President Hyodo - she did not study economics and management as the president requested, but chose sociology instead."

"Sociology? That's a bit... a bit empty. I didn't expect that Xiaozi actually has such a hobby." The chairman smiled, a little puzzled, "But it doesn't matter. With Xiaozi's family background, choosing a major will not affect his future. The reputation of the University of Tokyo is there anyway."

"If that's all, it's fine. Just like what you said, it won't affect what the young lady studies, and President Hyoudou won't interfere too much. However..." Tonegawa Yukio shook his head slightly, seeming to disagree. "We later heard that the young lady Takako even organized a club in the school, and it seems that she has invested a lot of energy in this club."

"You really have time to spare. From what I've known before, Takako doesn't seem like the type who likes to socialize with people. I didn't expect that he would change his ways after going to the University of Tokyo." The chairman couldn't help but smile again. "What does this club do?"

"We don't know what it does yet..." Tonegawa Yukio shook his head again, "To be honest, this club was established inside the University of Tokyo, and it recruits elite students from the University of Tokyo, so it's difficult for us to infiltrate it. Besides... there's no need for us to understand Miss Takako's every move, she has her freedom. However, I guess her insistence on coming to the school should also be related to the club..."

Under the surprised gazes of several people, he continued to explain to the three people, "Miss Takako is now a junior and is about to graduate. According to the arrangement of President Hyodo, she will go abroad for further studies after graduation, such as Oxford or Harvard, etc. After returning, she will enter the company of the family to start learning management and operation - and by that time, she may not have the opportunity to manage the affairs of the university club. So she may want to take advantage of the little time now to identify the future fresh blood for the club she founded..."

"Oh... I see! Now I understand!" The chairman suddenly realized, and Mogami Jun and Sagihara Shion also understood something.

This school is Takako Hyodo's alma mater, and it is a prestigious school. There must be many students who can be admitted to the University of Tokyo. Therefore, in order to allow her club to continue within the University of Tokyo after graduation, she plans to return to her alma mater to look for suitable candidates.

From the perspective of the Japanese sense of circle, this is quite normal. After all, many large companies give priority to recruiting people from their alma mater in management. Seniors support juniors, and juniors are loyal to seniors, forming a circle of people who advance and retreat together... Not to mention the government level. People who graduated from the University of Tokyo almost monopolize the entire central government departments. In their eyes, all this is even reasonable.

Is this the way the torch is passed on... Jun Mogami thought.

Whether this was a good idea or not, at least it didn't seem that dangerous anymore, and his initial nervousness had mostly dissipated.

"If it's just for the university club, then we don't need to do anything..." Sagihara Shion, who had been silent all the time, said cautiously, "After all, we can't interfere with such matters, and I... I'm not sure I can get into the University of Tokyo. Even if I can get into the University of Tokyo, I'm not interested in joining any clubs."

Given Senior Sagihara's personality, it was not easy for her to say it so decisively.

After all, Senior Sagihara almost lost her life at the hands of Hyoudou Takako, which left her with a huge psychological trauma, so it is very normal that he doesn't want to have anything to do with her.

"Ms. Sagihara, of course you can refuse. To be honest, we don't care about clubs or anything like that. They are just toys for the young lady to play with. They are meaningless to us." Tonegawa Yukio smiled. "What we care about is that the young lady doesn't cause any new trouble. After all, the young lady has caused us a lot of trouble in high school. For example, you, Ms. Sagihara, are one of them. You were in critical condition at the time, and I sent someone to take you to the hospital... So I still remember you until now, a very outstanding and beautiful girl."

"Ah..." When she heard someone mention this past event, her face suddenly turned pale. "So... So..."

"Please don't mind. I'm just stating the past. I'm not qualified to call myself your savior, and you don't need to thank me." Tonegawa Yukio made a gesture, signaling Sagihara Shion to calm down. "When the young lady was studying, she would occasionally play this ridiculous and cruel game to relax. Due to the president's order, the security personnel could only obey her will. However, I didn't want the young lady to become a murderer at such a young age, nor did I want President Hyodo to lose face because of the young lady's scandal. After all, the students in this school cannot be sacrificed easily. So I'm secretly controlling it to avoid terrible bloody consequences. In general, although many people have suffered heavy losses like you due to our efforts, no one has died yet."

After listening to this, Sagihara Shion lowered her head with extremely complicated feelings, and seemed to be thankful for her last bit of luck that year.

"If no one dies, then... that would be great."

Although Sagihara-senpai was relieved, Mogami Jun smelled something different in Tonegawa Yukio's words.

"After all, the students in this school cannot be sacrificed so easily."

Does it mean that if someone is of very low value, they can be sacrificed in the game like a blade of grass?

When he thought of the true meaning contained in it, Jun Mogami couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring.

He recalled what his father had described to him that day.

It seems that Hyoudou Takako is just imitating her grandfather, President Hyoudou. Although no one has really died yet, what about the future? I am afraid it is definitely not optimistic.

"This kind of work is not pleasant, but I still have to do it. It was like this then, and it is still like this now." As if he thought of something, Yukio Tonegawa sighed, showing a rare hint of fatigue.

Then, he picked up the slowly cooling teacup in front of him, took a big sip of tea, moistened his dry throat, and then spoke again.

"Ms. Sagihara, as one of the survivors, I respect your opinion. It's okay if you don't want to have contact with the young lady. I won't force you. In essence, we don't care what the young lady wants to do, as long as she doesn't cause any big trouble for the president and the Di Ai Group."

"So what you mean is that if she acts recklessly, you should stop her, right?" Senior Sister Luyuan asked in a low voice, her face still very pale.

"If necessary, and if it reaches a certain limit, I will stop it." Tonegawa Yukio nodded, "This is also the purpose of my coming here this time."

"If that's the case, I..." Sagihara Shion took a deep breath, then looked up at Tonegawa, "I choose to cooperate with you. I've experienced a nightmare like that before, and I know how terrible it is, so I don't want similar victims to appear in our school again. If someone is willing to stop it, I will help. Even though I really don't want to have anything to do with her, but... I will still help. I thought the nightmare would end the day she left school, but I never thought it would continue that day. So, if there's a chance to stop it, I'm willing to stop it!"

"You are very courageous, just like you were back then. You are indeed a child who dares to risk your life." Tonegawa Yukio looked at Sagihara Shion, then sized her up with a mixture of admiration and admiration. "To be honest, if possible, I would rather you were our eldest daughter - that way we would have much less worries. God just likes to play such bad jokes..."

After making a joke, he drank the remaining tea in the cup in one gulp. "Okay, in that case, I've given you my business card now. If the young lady does anything out of line, feel free to contact me. I will try to stop her as soon as possible. Although this kind of surveillance and snitching work doesn't sound good, you can also understand it as a way to protect the school."

"I understand." Sagihara Shion nodded gently, "I will do my best..."

"Well, I'll take my leave for now. I have a lot of other things to do here." Yukio Tonegawa picked up the coat that was placed beside the armrest and put it on again. Then he bowed to the three people, turned around and left without looking back.

"Now that we've come to this, I have nothing more to say." Chairman Horikawa looked at Sagihara Shion and Mogami Jun, "Shion, if you encounter any troubles, you can come to me. Although the school has given you a tough job, it does not mean that it will abandon you. Tonegawa Yukio is a very capable person, and he keeps his word."

"Thank you, Chairman." Sagihara Shion also stood up and saluted the Chairman with a slight smile.

Then, Mogami Jun left with Sagihara-senpai.

At this time, it was almost nightfall, and the sun was only visible through the last sharp corners of the tall buildings, weakly casting its golden afterglow on the earth. It was already dark outside, so much so that the trees looked like they were waving slightly.

"Jun-kun, to be honest, I'm still very afraid of her." Sagihara Shion smiled bitterly. "But since it has come to this, I feel that I can't just ignore it... so I finally agreed."

"No need to explain, I understand, senior." Mogami Jun smiled, then looked at Sagihara Shion with ease, "Relax a little, you were alone against her back then, and you were not defeated. Now you have Mr. Tonegawa as your backing, and I as your partner, so it will be much easier no matter how you look at it."

"Yes... I'm no longer alone." Sagihara Shion nodded.

Then she closed her eyes slightly and took a deep breath, as if enjoying the evening breeze between the trees and flower beds.

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

Just as Mogami Jun and Sagihara Shion were saying goodbye, there was a slight commotion at the school gate.

Several cars emerged from the darkness on the street and drove all the way to the school gate.

After verifying the identity, the guard opened the gate, and then the leading red sports car moved silently through the campus like a fish gliding in the sea. Behind the sports car, two black cars also followed silently, keeping a distance, and drove forward together.

Finally, the car stopped downstairs of the administrative building that the two of them had just left.

The door of the sports car slowly rose up, and then a high-heeled shoe fell from the car to the ground, making a crisp sound.

Then, the black skirt began to float slowly in the dark shadow, and its outline became clearer and clearer.

Finally, the door of the sports car closed, and a tall figure appeared downstairs of the teaching building.

She was wearing a black dress, a small hat on her head, and lightweight jewel earrings on her ears. Under the hat, her dyed hair seemed to glow with a dark orange glow under the light.

She also wore orange sunglasses on her face. Under the glasses was a fair and delicate face and bright red lips.

The whole outfit is serious yet charming, and has a sense of boldness.

After closing the car door, she looked around and took in everything that was once familiar to her.

"I really miss it." Looking at the administrative building and all the familiar scenery around it, she said slowly.
