Oh no... Jun Mogami wanted to stop the senior from self-destructing, but it was too late, so he could only sigh helplessly.

"So it's you..." Hyoudou Takako finally understood everything that happened that night.

She turned around and looked at Mogami Jun, then frowned slightly, "So you deliberately went to Sagihara Shion that night to ask her to help you switch the test paper... Sagihara Shion came to me that night not to argue with me, but just to find an excuse to find the test paper? Well... what a pair of close friends!"

Mogami Jun said nothing.

In order to protect Senior Sagihara, he was prepared to take all the responsibility by himself, but he didn't expect that due to his concern, Senior Sagihara took the initiative to expose the matter. Now he couldn't control the situation. He could only pray that Takako was indeed a person who could afford to lose, and would not do anything to Senior Sagihara out of anger and shame.

Fortunately, after being angry for a short time, the filial son quickly returned to normal and just complained in a low voice.

"Humph, they really are a pair. They say exactly the same things..."

"So did I win?" Mogami Jun asked, "Hyoudou-senpai, our agreement was that I would win as long as I scored higher than them, right? As our senior, are you going to break your promise?"

"Of course what I said counts," Hyoudou Takako replied calmly, "Since you are ranked higher than them, then no matter what the reason is, you have won. This is an indisputable fact, but you are still far from victory..."

Of course, Jun Mogami understood what Hyoudou Takako meant.

According to their previous agreement, if Mogami Jun defeated those students in the exam, he could then compete with Hyodou Takako in a fair manner. Both parties would jointly designate the rules and have a final competition.

"Okay, don't waste time." Hyoudou Takako looked at Mogami Jun, "Tell me, what are you going to compete in? I'll give you a chance to choose!"

It’s coming…it’s finally here…Jun Mogami felt a little excited.

He was waiting for this moment.

"Hyoudou-senpai, if I say I voluntarily give up my right to change the rules, and you decide the rules, is that okay with that?"

This sudden question shocked both Hyoudou Takako and Sagihara Shion.

"Jun-kun, what's wrong with you?" Sagihara Shion exclaimed.

"What are you doing?" asked Hyoudou Takako suspiciously.

"I have a wish that I must fulfill no matter what. I am willing to take risks for this wish... and I am willing to pay a small price." Mogami Jun replied calmly, "I want to use a wish as a reward to duel with Hyoudou-senpai - in exchange, Hyoudou-senpai can set the bet himself."

"You are kidding me!" Hyoudou Takako interrupted him rudely, "If you want me to blow up the earth, do I have to do it for you?"

"You can definitely fulfill my wish. Of course, it will take some effort, and it won't violate the laws of nature or even the law." Mogami Jun replied immediately, "I remember that Senior always held similar duels in our school. Can't I even try it once? Or... is Senior Hyoudou already considering the possibility of losing to me? Don't you even have confidence in the outcome of your own goal?"

Now that Mogami Jun has said this, Hyoudou Takako has no choice but to consider it.

As a person as arrogant as her, she would definitely not tolerate this kind of provocation, especially since Mogami Jun did offer very favorable conditions to her.

In a trance, the young man opposite her reminded her of the memories of when she was active in this school.

Although only a few years had passed, it seemed like a long, long time had passed, so long that one would want to try it again... that scarlet shock.

"A wish..." Hyoudou Takako pondered for a moment, then suddenly sneered, "This is a very luxurious thing! Since you want me to fulfill your wish, you have to pay a price higher than money."

Sagihara Shion opened her eyes wide.

Although she couldn't keep up with the conversation between the two, she now understood what Hyoudou Takako wanted to say.

"no!"

With her shrill accompaniment, Hyoudou Takako stated his conditions without being affected at all, "Okay, let's follow the old rules. You bet with blood. Anything? Do you dare?"

Mogami Jun was not moved at all, he had already expected this condition.

Indeed, if you want to win, you have to take risks... In order to realize their wishes, some people sacrifice their souls to evil gods, so what does it matter if you sacrifice a little blood yourself?

As long as we win...

"Jun-kun, don't..." Sagihara Shion suddenly grabbed the corner of Jun Mogami's clothes, tears appearing in the corners of her eyes, "Did something happen? We can think of another way, why take this risk... Stop, please... Stop!"

Jun Mogami gently touched the back of Sagihara Shion's hand.

It was cold, and you could tell he was very nervous.

But his hands still maintained their normal temperature.

Things have come to this point, and we have already made all the necessary preparations. What is there to hesitate about?

Go ahead, for yourself, for your father, for the future... He believes he can do it.

"I dare." Jun Mogami replied calmly.

"Let me make this clear first. Since you are willing to fight in this way, I cannot guarantee your safety. If you perform poorly and die before the end of the fight, it will be your own problem." Hyoudou Takako emphasized again, "Can you write a suicide note first? Sagihara Shion wrote one back then..."

As the heir to the Hyoudou Group, she actually didn't need a so-called suicide note. This condition was only to intensify the pleasure of psychological torture. When she was in high school, she really liked to see other people's expressions when they were writing suicide notes.

"Of course I can write it, no problem." Mogami Jun replied, and then changed the subject, "But, Hyoudou-senpai, although I have given up changing the rules, I think I still have to have a say in the way the duel is conducted. I must be able to see the hope of winning. Otherwise, if it is a gamble that is doomed to fail from the start, I am afraid it will be meaningless for Hyoudou-senpai to play it by himself, right?"

"Well, no problem, of course it is like that!" Hyoudou Takako answered with a smile, and then suddenly raised her hand and pointed at Sagihara Shion, "Since you two are so destined to fight, why don't I just use the same duel method we used that time? What do you think, senior, is this enough to take care of you? Since Sagihara Shion was able to escape death at that time, you should have the confidence to perform better than her, right? "

Mogami Jun turned his head and looked at Sagihara Shion, who was panic-stricken and pale as paper.

She seemed almost unable to speak, her eyes were full of panic and pleading, as if she was begging Mogami Jun to stop at the last moment.

Speaking of which, up until now, Sagihara-senpai has never said how she managed to survive the duel with Hyoudou Takako, nor has she said the specific details of the victory or defeat.

Maybe that incident left her with a huge psychological trauma.

Senior, I'm sorry...but now that I've made up my mind, I have to follow through.

Mogami Jun turned back and looked at Hyoudou Takako.

"Okay, if that's the case then I have nothing to say, let's stick with this one. However, as for the venue, I hope it can be held in our school - I don't trust other places, and as a student, it's not easy for me to run around."

"No problem." Hyoudou Takako agreed straightforwardly, "Sagihara Shion, didn't you tell him where we played that time?" Sagihara Shion's lips trembled, and she wanted to say something else, but in the end she lowered her head helplessly.

"In the infirmary."

Mogami Jun understood immediately.

It was indeed the most convenient location. There were empty rooms in the infirmary and it was a quiet place. More importantly, it had the necessary equipment for drawing blood and first aid...

In that case, there is nothing more to say.

"Okay, I accept that."

"Very good..." Hyoudou Takako walked in front of Jun Mogami, and stared at him with interest, "Jun Mogami, I don't know what forced you to take this step, but I admire your courage. So far, you have been very consistent with what I think a subordinate should be like. So, I hope you can give me a performance that satisfies me - don't die too soon..."

"Can...can I join in?" At this moment, Sagihara Shion next to her suddenly asked in a trembling voice. "I...I am willing to place the bet."

She seemed to have accepted reality.

"No." Mogami Jun refused directly, "This is my own business, I don't need others to take responsibility for me."

"Look, this guy is so heartless..." Hyoudou Takako teased Sagihara Shion.

Then, she suddenly suggested, "Since he doesn't want you to participate, then, how about you be the referee, Sagihara Shion?"

"Huh?" Sagihara Shion was very surprised.

"How would you react when you see him having his blood drawn? I... am... really... curious... ah..." Hyoudou Takako stretched out the words and spoke out his cruel plan word by word, "Your tears of pain and regret will be your midnight snack tonight—"

Sagihara Shion took a deep breath and tried not to let herself cry.

"Thank you anyway. I'll do whatever I can to help him."

"Well, I'm looking forward to it." Hyoudou Takako replied with a smile, "Okay, I'll go make the necessary preparations, and we'll meet in the infirmary in two hours! You should also take this opportunity to teach him a good lesson first, so that I don't have to waste my breath later."

After saying this, she waved her hand and asked the man in black to send the boy and girl away.

The two of them walked out of the administration building together.

Sagihara Shion kept her head down, feeling very worried.

"It's not too late for you to regret now. Let's run together." After a moment's silence, she suddenly said.

"No, I don't regret it, Senior." Mogami Jun shook his head, "This is something I decided."

"But why is this happening?!" Sagihara Shion raised her head and asked loudly. "Why are you like this?"

This was a rare moment of her losing control, and she was obviously extremely upset.

Mogami Jun originally didn't want to answer this question, but when he saw Sagihara Shion's tearful look, Mogami Jun softened his heart.

"I...I have something going on at home."

"Would such a thing happen in a family like Jun-kun's?" Sagihara Shion finally understood, and then smiled bitterly, "I thought only people like me who are desperate would do such a thing?"

"The more you gain, the more you can lose. It has always been like this." Mogami Jun replied in a low voice. "Anyway, I must win. I'm sorry, senior."

"What's the point of talking about this now... I'm just annoyed that I didn't know until this moment." Sagihara Shion shook her head sadly, "Chun-kun, I... I want to help you, even if it's just a little more, you are not allowed to refuse!"

"Chun Jun, I...I want to help you, even if it's just a little more. Don't refuse!"

In the darkness of the night, Sagihara Shion spoke solemnly to Mogami Jun.

In the dim light, not only were her eyes sparkling with tears, but even her fair face seemed to be covered with a layer of fluorescence, making it difficult to look directly at her.

She didn't know what Jun Mogami had been through that made him suddenly do such a dangerous thing, but precisely because she knew the seriousness of the situation, she would never allow Jun Mogami to face the danger alone.

【乾寻】/㈠四⑼澪⒊⑦㈨⑧

This stern look also represented her firm determination not to allow Mogami Jun to refuse.

Mogami Jun understood.

"Well, since you asked me to do so, then... thank you." Mogami Jun bowed and thanked her sincerely. "Please lend me a hand."

"It's good that you know." Sagihara Shion smiled bitterly and glanced at him in reproach. "Why did you keep it from me all this time? In the end, it was only when junior Takasaki came to find me that I found out about such a big thing?"

"I don't want to implicate my senior because of my own affairs." Mogami Jun replied, "Originally, this matter was caused by me on a whim. I don't think there is any need to implicate others."

"You are too arrogant. Why don't you think about the fact that one person's power is limited after all?!" Sagihara Shion said displeasedly, "Am I... am I the kind of person who is afraid of being troubled by you?"

When asked this by Sagihara Shion, Mogami Jun could only smile foolishly and try to get away with it.

After scolding Mogami Jun for a few words, Sagihara Shion also knew that time was tight and it was not the time to lose her temper, so she took the initiative to change the subject. "Okay, let's find a place to study it now, at least you know what you are playing..."

As she spoke, she looked around and finally brought Mogami Jun to the library.

It was already evening and the library was not far from closing time, so there were very few people inside and it was quiet.

When they came to the familiar reading room, both of them had an inexplicable feeling in their hearts - they met here and met here every week, and this place carried too many memories.

Sagihara Shion and Mogami Jun sat together on a long chair. Usually they discussed novels here, but this time it was impossible for the two of them to have their usual relaxed and happy mood.

When he came up, Jun Mogami took a pen and paper, and as soon as he sat down, he started writing and drawing on the paper.

"What are you doing?" Sagihara Shion was a little curious.

"I'm writing a suicide note..." Mogami Jun's tone was quite relaxed and natural, and he didn't even stop his hands.

Sagihara Shion took a deep breath and was suddenly speechless.

The sound of the pen hitting the paper was very light, but to her it sounded like it was tearing her heart apart.

"Don't talk about such a heavy matter in such a frivolous tone." Finally, she endured the pain and warned Mogami Jun, "How can you fight with the filial son with this mentality?"

"As for a suicide note, just write it perfunctorily." Mogami Jun smiled and shook his head, "Senior, I still have a lot of youth left in my life. How could I really gamble my life with Hyoudou Takako?"

"Eh..." Sagihara Shion found that she couldn't understand anything. "Aren't you going to fight her?"

"Of course we have to fight, but there's no need to risk our lives—" Mogami Jun shook his head, "Senior, you should know that I'm definitely not the type of reckless man who acts on impulse. Since I've put forward such unfair conditions, I must have a trump card."

“Trump card? What is it…?” Sagihara Shion still looked confused.

"Well, this is it..." Jun Mogami took a look and took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

QQ: 814 9 0 37 98

Under the dim light in the library, Sagihara Shion couldn't see clearly at first, but she soon discovered that the so-called "trump card" was not a card, but a business card.

"Tonegawa Yukio..." Sagihara Shion whispered the name.

"Ah!" Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she remembered this person.

He is a serious, middle-aged man wearing a suit and a trench coat.

More importantly, he is the second in command of the Di Ai Group.

Not long ago, he visited this school and met with himself and Mogami Jun. It was there that he told him that Takako would come to the school to cause trouble and gave him a business card.

"So what you mean is that if she does whatever she wants, you have to stop her, right?" "If it is necessary and reaches a certain limit, I will stop her. This is also the purpose of my coming here this time."

These two sentences still recurred in her mind.

Clearly only less than a month had passed, but when I think back now, I feel as if ten years had passed.
