In this way, Jun Mogami slowly finished the remaining pastries, and the dinner slowly came to an end.
Just as she had insisted, Sagihara Shion paid the bill.
Then, the two said goodbye to each other at the door of the store.
"Jun-kun, goodbye!" Sagihara Shion stood at the door and watched Mogami Jun leave.
As the other person's back slowly disappeared, her smile slowly froze.
"Chun Jun, I'm sorry, I'm actually very cunning... I said something so high-sounding and pretentious like 'so you don't have to walk alone'..." She lowered her head in shame. "Actually, I'm the one who's most afraid of loneliness..."
58. Doubt
Until the next day in class, Mogami Jun still couldn't forget the charm of his senior sister last night.
He had never imagined beforehand that the usually introverted senior sister Sagihara would actually take such proactive actions in front of him several times.
Perhaps, this is the real Sagihara Shion. She was forced to shut herself off because her family suffered a tragic change and she was isolated and rejected by her classmates at school. She has been suppressed for too long.
Once she removes the huge rock from her heart and gets rid of the heavy burden, Sakihara-senpai will actually reveal her lovely true self.
Thinking of this, Mogami Jun suddenly realized that he had become one of Sagihara-senpai's spiritual pillars - and the senior herself had said so herself.
So she would be afraid that this spiritual pillar would collapse and become what she least wanted to see.
Precisely because of fear, she has to find a way to stop it, even if it means using herself as a bet - under Sagihara Shion's gentle appearance, she also has such motivation. She is worthy of being the child who dared to confront Hyodo Takako back then.
What about me? What should I do?
He asked himself and found it difficult to refuse the expectations of his senior.
Or rather, I don't want to refuse at all.
It would be nice if I could continue to help and support Saginahara-senpai in the future...
On this spring morning, Jun Mogami couldn't help but imagine the scene of himself and his senior schoolmate chatting and laughing under the shade of trees on the Tokyo University campus.
"Mogami-san..." The call in the ear broke the rosy fantasy of the young man in the classroom.
"Ah...ah?" Jun Mogami's consciousness returned to the real world, and the face of a male classmate appeared in his blurry vision.
It took almost a second for Jun Mogami to combine him with the portrait in his memory bank.
"It's Class Leader Hanyu, what's wrong?"
"Are you okay?" Class monitor Hanyu Hirofumi looked at him with some concern. "You seem a little dazed?"
"I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well last night." Mogami Jun said casually, "What's the matter, squad leader?"
Although he didn't actually hate the class monitor, he would always feel a little unhappy when his fantasy was interrupted, so his tone was not very polite. Fortunately, Hanyu Hirofumi didn't care about this little thing.
"After we came out of the auditorium yesterday, I saw that Teacher Hyoudou seemed to have found you and the senior who came to see you... You guys even got into her car later, right?" asked Hirofumi Hanyu.
"Yeah, that's right." Mogami Jun nodded, "She treated us to a meal, and we went out for dinner together."
"Wow! It seems that she really thinks highly of you..." Hanyu Hirofumi smiled, and then looked at Mogami Jun with an inquiring look, "Mogami-san, do you agree to join her club in the future?"
Mogami Jun has already seen that Hanyu Hirofumi is really passionate about this matter. It was already quite obvious in the auditorium.
Even though Hyoudou Takako has said it so bluntly, there are always people who want to try again and challenge themselves.
He doesn't object to others dreaming, that is a human right, but he has no interest in participating in other people's dreams.
"Well, generally speaking, she did make such an invitation, but I refused." Mogami Jun answered the other party truthfully, "So we parted on bad terms, and she sent us back."
"She rejected it directly? Why?" Yuzuru Hirofumi was a little surprised. "You are the only one among us who was recruited. Since she came out in person to recruit you, it means she thinks highly of you..."
"Is there any necessary connection between her valuing me and me obeying her?" Mogami Jun raised his eyebrows. "I had no interest in her proposal so I rejected it. This is my choice."
"Mogami-san is always so harsh..." Hanyu Hirofumi finally felt Mogami Jun's impolite attitude, so he could only sigh helplessly and stopped talking about this topic. "By the way, that Sagihara-senpai, Mogami-san seems to know her? She came to the class to look for you before."
"It can be considered some contact..." Jun Mogami frowned.
He sensed something was wrong.
"I admire that senior very much. She actually dared to refute Mr. Hyoudou's words." Hanyu Hirofumi smiled, and then looked at Mogami Jun, "Mogami-san, can you introduce me to that senior? I... I have some questions I want to ask her."
As expected, he came... Jun Mogami was startled.
It's not that he was disgusted by Hanyu Hirofumi's request, but he suddenly thought of something else.
Hyoudou Takako said last night that her favorite successor to the club is Sagihara-senpai. So the reason why she gave Sagihara-senpai so much face in the auditorium and even introduced her in public is very intriguing.
Although she failed to force Senior Sagihara to agree to her request due to the failure of the duel, Takako had achieved part of her goal - the advertising effect had been achieved.
Among the elite students in the school, the previously inconspicuous Sakihara-senpai became famous almost instantly. Everyone witnessed with their own eyes how she could hold her own in front of Hyodou Takako.
It doesn't matter to those who don't care about clubs and the Hyoudou Foundation, but for those who are as passionate about it as Hirofumi Hanyu, their ideas will definitely be different.
No, we can’t let them cause trouble for the senior.
"I'm sorry, class monitor, but I won't introduce you. I don't want to trouble her for such a small matter." Mogami Jun rejected Hanyu Hirofumi's request almost immediately. "Also, don't think too much. Sagihara-senpai and I have already rejected Hyoudou-sensei's request. It's useless even if you ask her for help. She can't give you any help. Also, I advise you that if you really want to please Takako, the most useful way is to find her in person. If she likes you, that will be more useful than anything else. Finding other people is just a waste of your energy-"
Hirofumi Hanyu was stunned.
He didn't expect that his short proposal would be bombarded with a barrage of words by Mogami Jun. Although Mogami Jun himself did not realize it, it was obvious that this showed that the senior student held a special position in his heart.
It seems there is another story behind this...Hirofumi Hanyu smiled bitterly in his heart.
"Okay... I'm sorry, I just mentioned it casually. If you don't want to, forget it." Since Jun Mogami had already said this, he naturally had no interest in asking further. "Okay, then I have nothing else to trouble you with. I'm really sorry for wasting your time."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave, but at this time, Mogami Jun suddenly called him.
"Monitor!"
"Well, is there anything else?" Hanyu Hirofumi asked curiously.
"Besides you, is there anyone else in the class who wants to do what Senior Hyoudou said?" asked Jun Mogami.
"Well... I'm not sure. After all, no one would tell others about this kind of thing." Hanyu Hirofumi smiled a little embarrassedly. "How about I ask for you? There are only a few people anyway, so they will ask quickly."
"No, forget it, let's not ask anymore." Mogami Jun waved his hand again and stopped asking. "Also, I think that although I don't object to a person having any ideals, such ideals cannot be achieved at the expense of others. Do you agree with me, squad leader?"
"Of course, I agree with you. This is a fair argument and very correct." Hanyu Hirofumi tilted his head, not understanding what Mogami Jun meant.
Finally, seeing that Jun Mogami had no intention of explaining further, he could only smile and return to his seat.
Of course, Jun Mogami didn't ask casually.
After being disturbed by Hanyu Hirofumi, Mogami Jun thought that although he and Sagihara-senpai had completely rejected Hyodou Takako's request, there must be many people like Hanyu Hirofumi who are eager to try and want to join the Takako Club in the future. Hanyu Hirofumi would hope to find him to introduce him, but there must be some people who would just go to Takako.
Among these people, some have ideals in their hearts and want to do big things in the future, while some just want the golden signboard of the Di Ai Group - after all, as long as they please the filial son, they can easily enter a super large enterprise like the Di Ai Group in the future and have a bright future.
Whatever their reasons, they are very motivated to please the filial son, which means they can easily become the filial son's pawns.
Judging from Hyoudou Takako's previous performance, she is definitely not the kind of person who will give up easily. A mere setback may even make her more motivated... In other words, the trouble may have just begun.
If the two are combined, maybe the filial son will do something to himself and his senior in the future, and there will really be people willing to act as the filial son's eyes and ears and minions.
Of course, it is possible that he was just overthinking it, so he was not going to delve into it further for now.
Besides, even if you ask them face to face, how many people will honestly admit what they think?
Anyway, Hanyu Hirofumi did not inadvertently reveal a certain possibility, and Mogami Jun put this doubt in his heart. At least this possibility exists.
It doesn't matter if it's just him, but if someone is used by Takako to deal with Sagihara-senpai, that's totally intolerable.
After the conversation between the monitor and him ended, the usual silence returned to his surroundings. No one came to disturb him anymore. He was happy to be free and continued to attend the class as if no one was around.
When the lunch bell rang, he strode out of the classroom and headed to the cafeteria as usual, ready to reward himself with lunch.
"Jun-chan--" However, when he just arrived in the corridor, someone else greeted him.
Without carefully identifying, just by listening to the name and the soft tone, Mogami Jun knew who it was.
"Ah, is that Yuzu-chan? What's the matter?" Mogami Jun put on a gentle smile and turned to look at Takasaki Mayu who was standing next to him.
As usual, Zhenyou was surrounded by her followers. They always acted together in school, and of course they did the same during lunch.
"It just so happens that Jun-chan is also going to the cafeteria, and Yuzu-chan is going there too... I have something I want to talk to Jun-chan about on the way!" Takasaki Mayu looked at Mogami Jun with a bright smile, as always making people feel warm and cheerful.
Mogami Jun was a little confused, but thought there was no need to refuse, so he agreed.
"Okay."
So he walked along the corridor to the cafeteria with the girls.
Perhaps it was because of the recent order given by Takasaki Mayu, none of the girls turned their backs on him this time. Even Fujiyoshi Ayami, who hated him the most, restrained her disgusted look, which made Mogami Jun's experience a lot better.
"Yuzu-chan, what's going on?" Jun Mogami asked as they walked.
"It's like this... I heard that Mr. Hyodo has special benefits for the top students in our school, and hopes to recruit them into the club, right?" Takasaki Mayu asked with a smile.
"Ah, yes, news spreads quickly." Mogami Jun nodded.
Then, he gave the other person a teasing look in return, as if mocking him, "With your grades, it will never be your turn even if there are any discounts."
It seemed as if Takasaki Mayu could understand such a look, so she narrowed her eyes slightly, and then rolled her eyes viciously without anyone noticing.
"Yuzu-chan has a friend named Sakai Koichi, who is in Class B and has pretty good grades. But because of something that happened before, he was temporarily banned from participating in school activities... After hearing about this incident, he wanted to try his luck..." Although she was angry, Takasaki Mayu's tone was still so sweet, "Jun-chan, he heard that you are more familiar with that place, so he wants to ask you to think of a solution. Do you think it's okay..."
I see……
Mitsui Sakai ranked third in the school in the last exam, but he cheated at that time. After Mogami Jun exposed the cheating, although he was not expelled at Mogami Jun's request, he was also severely punished and could not attend classes normally for the time being, so he naturally missed the invitation from Takashi.
However, his usual grades were around 30-40, so even if they were not cheated, he was still qualified to be in the score line set by Hyodou Takako that was worthy of attention. He must have been jealous when he heard about Hyodou Takako.
But what does this have to do with me?
What's wrong with Mitsui Sakai paying the price for his mistakes?
Mogami Jun was about to open his mouth to refuse, but he stopped when the words came to his lips.
"Well... I can try to talk about this, but it may not work."
59. Happy
"Well... I can try to talk about this, but it may not work."
"Eh...?" Seeing that Mogami Jun agreed so easily, Takasaki Mayu was a little surprised.
She originally thought that with Mogami Jun's personality, even if he agreed, it would take a lot of persuasion, so she prepared some excuses, but these excuses were of no use.
"Hmm... Jun-chan means, did you agree to plead for Sakai-san?" Because she was a little worried, Mayu confirmed it again.
"Yeah, that's what I mean." Mogami Jun nodded, "After all, we are classmates from the same school, so it's only right for me to help him. Besides, since he is Yuzu-chan's good friend, I should take better care of him..."
"Ah...Jun-chan..."
Although she knew that what Mogami Jun said was definitely a lie, Takasaki Mayu felt more comfortable listening to it, and her eyebrows were curved with laughter. "If that's the case, then I will thank you on his behalf!"
"Yeah." Jun Mogami nodded and quickened his pace.
"Jun-chan?" At this moment, Takasaki Mayu called him again, "It's really a shame to ask you for help without any help. How about... I treat you to a meal? It can be regarded as due compensation..."
"Eh?" Before Jun Mogami could express her opinion, the female students next to her screamed in surprise.
As far as they could remember, Zhenyou had never invited a boy in school like this before.
After all, she is an idol, and in order to maintain her image, it is difficult for her to show intimacy with others in public.
"..." Jun Mogami was quite surprised and couldn't understand what Shinyu was up to.
He looked at the other person, but there was only a sweet smile on Takasaki Mayu's face and no sign of anything could be seen.
"That's not necessary..." He laughed dryly, "I appreciate your kindness, but it's not a big deal. I can do it easily. You don't need to thank me so grandly. Besides, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat if others keep watching me while I eat. Besides, this won't have a good effect on you, right?"
Mogami Jun's words were not false. Although he never cared about other people's gazes, he was still being stared at while eating. To be honest, he felt quite stressed...
"How could that be? It's just a meal, who would say anything? Doesn't Yuzu-chan even have this little freedom?" Takasaki Mayu turned around and looked at her friends next to her pitifully, "Well? What do you think? Can't Yuzu-chan do this?"
"Of course you can! It's no big deal for Youjiang to have dinner with her friends! We'll scold anyone who dares to say something nonsense!" Seeing this kind of look, even the friends who had some objections in their hearts did not dare to speak out their objections. They all laughed dryly and said that Zhenyou was completely free to do so.
After all, they all knew that making Zhenyou sad was no joke.
"Look, everyone thinks it's nothing! Yuzu-chan is just treating everyone to a meal, no one has the right to do anything~" Shinyu turned around and looked at Mogami Jun with a smile, and even raised his right hand habitually to make an OK gesture, "If anyone is long-winded, everyone will not let him go~"
It’s so cool to have crazy fans these days… Jun Mogami couldn’t help but wipe the sweat off his face in his heart.
"Jun-chan, are you still angry about what happened last time?" Seeing that Mogami Jun still didn't say anything, Takasaki Mayu didn't give up. Instead, she pouted slightly, looking quite depressed. "I've already apologized to you in public, so don't take it to heart~ Or do you want to make sure that we can't reconcile forever, Jun-chan?"
"Okay, okay, now that you've said this, what else can I say?" Mogami Jun shrugged, finally succumbing to the other party's cute offensive, "Anyway, I'm not the one who suffered the loss..."
"Okay then, let's go over there~" Takasaki Mayu started laughing again, looking very happy.
