You say this is a love game?

In Tongzi's rank determination, Satori Yoshiko is still in the middle position.

It seems that I need to feed it more experience fruits.

Now that the confusion about the new items and the new system has been resolved, what remains is the advancement of the map.

"First, get around Tang Shizi."

Tang Shizi didn't even have to think about it.

"If you climb the tower..."

There are four floors in the Kendo Club Dojo, but he couldn't climb up yet. On the second floor, he encountered two wild sword demons. They were too difficult to deal with, and he didn't have enough stats.

So what he should do now is to start brushing and exploring the map.

But before that, he still had to spend some time in the Kendo Club. In addition to the task of brushing souls, more importantly, he broke his right-hand sword when fighting the ghost bear, and his left-hand sword was also covered with scars. He had to brush out some new weapons.

As a result, his speed of clearing the land slowed down, and his style really became like that of the Sword God of Shilipo.

But this may not be a bad thing. He has always suffered from the disadvantage of numerical values. Anyway, he will not escape from this map. If no one urges him, he can certainly slow down and find a rhythm that makes him feel comfortable.

In two days, Mizutani Makoto produced two katanas, and kept one as a spare.

At the same time, since the efficiency of soul farming has been greatly improved, he now goes to the cafeteria, square, and main building to farm Miss JK after farming the Kendo Club Dojo, so his soul is also rising rapidly.

In just two days, his soul arrived at 3369.

I couldn't be more diligent.

Due to the surge in survival time, Mizutani Makoto's daily gaming time has seriously exceeded the model. There are times when he does not sleep the entire night and has to make up for it by taking a nap the next day.

For him, who had just begun to understand the truth, death was no longer an inevitable outcome.

When he decided to take a break, Makoto Mizutani took his soul to find Ruriko Furuya and asked the shrine maiden for a warm hug.

Yoshiko Satori:OMO.

Well, it’s a perfect ending.

……

……

Wednesday.

Rainy.

June is the rainy season in Japan. It rains almost every day, so there is a saying that June has "no moon".

But the rainy season is here, so how far can summer be?

Of course, Rika Nishimura doesn't care whether summer is far away or not.

She is more concerned about the recent public opinion impact!

The dampness of the rainy season clung to the windowpanes, and a musty, stagnant air drifted through the classroom. The hum of the air conditioner mingled with the patter of rain on the metal cabinets. The back collar of the girl's school uniform was stained with sweat, and she tugged at her tie uncomfortably, looking impatiently at the rain outside the window.

It's already after school.

The students ran away very quickly. Even the monitor left the classroom, leaving only their small group.

Due to the weather, there are very few club activities in June. Many outdoor activities cannot be carried out, and even indoor activities that stay on campus are difficult to organize. After all, the weather changes at any time. It may be cloudy and rainy just now, and it may turn into a downpour the next moment. There will be no time to even leave.

Therefore, the June rainy season, known as the "Water Without Moon", can be regarded as a relatively comfortable leisure time for students.

Ono Eri poked at the condensation on the windowsill with a mechanical pencil, then suddenly turned around and rested her chin on the back of her chair. "If this rain keeps going down, I feel like mushrooms are going to grow in the classroom."

Although the topic was crude, it still broke the awkward silence.

Rika Nishimura held her chin with one hand and looked at her friend in front of her helplessly.

Ono Eri, the unlucky girl who was tripped and fell by Mizutani Makoto, cried for several days after that day. When asked why, she said that she had confessed her love to Mizutani Makoto and didn't know if he would recognize her.

What was even worse was that Mizutani Makoto really didn't recognize her.

In other words, when she confessed her love to Mizutani Makoto, he said that she was a good girl and so on, but he forgot about her the next moment and didn't even remember her face.

She was filled with sadness and was in an emo state for several days. When it started raining a few days ago, she ran out to get wet in the rain like a middle school student, saying that this was the only way to live up to her mood.

Tsubaki Yokoi, the girl who held up her cell phone and wanted to bite back at Makoto Mizutani.

This lady is currently sharpening an eraser with a utility knife. She watches the crumbs fall into the cracks of the desk and pile up into a small hill. She then carefully picks out the eraser crumbs, gathers them together with her hands, and piles them into an irregular circle.

She's so bored that she's doing performance art.

As for Akemi Ohta?

That's the long-haired girl with glasses sitting in the corner, the one who was knocked down by Mizutani Makoto's elbow.

She looked quiet and gentle, holding a comic book and immersed in her own world, as if she was the most normal person.

But she is the most abstract!

The girl's face is rosy, and if you look closely you can see that she is holding a comic book about otome people, which is all related to keywords such as vampires, knights and princesses. When you look at the curve of her mouth when she is engrossed in reading, you can know that she is a genius.

Judging from her subsequent reaction to the bullying incident, she did so.

After all, Ota Akemi is the only one in their group who feels "regretful".

"Mizutani-san obviously took our picture, right?"

"That's a rare handle!"

"I was just waiting for Mizutani to recognize me, and then secretly contact me that night and say, 'Ota-san, you don't want this to be known to everyone at school, and then start a forbidden love affair, right?'"

"Why?"

"He actually uploaded it directly to the campus forum. Is it true that he doesn't have any romantic fantasies at all?"

"If I could be threatened by Mizutani-san with photos and have him do whatever he wants, I'd be willing to do it even if it meant paying him money!"

hiss……

Thinking of this group's amazing wisdom, Nishimura Rika's face almost wrinkled into a ball.

But what can be done?

It was her fault for choosing the wrong people. When she first saw these virtuous and dignified people at the beginning of the school year, she thought they were a group of reliable friends. However, she knew that they were all pretending, and when they got to know each other better, they all looked crazy.

According to them, they are under too much pressure in their daily lives. Everything has to be social and polite. Since they are all abstract people, isn't it fate that they can meet each other and let go of themselves?

"Well……"

It seemed that she was deeply interested in reading the comics, and Akemi Ota made a strange sound.

You see that the girls are in a very relaxed mood... and that's really the case.

At this time, more than a week had passed since Makoto Mizutani exposed their failed attempt at school bullying.

At the beginning, Mizutani Makoto uploaded the photos and videos to the forum. When public opinion began to ferment, the four of them became panicked.

This group of people have only seen others bullying each other since they were young, and they have never done anything bad themselves. The worst thing they have done is to bully others in a sarcastic way behind their backs.

But, isn't this a dark and heavy secret that girls generally have?

It’s the social behavior of small human groups!

After all, isn't the purpose of a few people getting together to chat about some interesting anecdotes, or to tell some fresh secrets, embarrassing stories, and jokes?

What else do you want to do?

A beer hall talk?

Therefore, after the attempted bullying was exposed, these daughters of wealthy families who were forced to take the blame were very worried. They were extremely afraid that the situation would get out of hand and that it would attract the attention of their parents, teachers, and classmates. Some were even afraid of the pressure of public opinion at the social level.

But in fact, they seemed to have overthought it.

They were indeed the focus of attention. After all, they were just a group of troublemakers, and once the incident on the campus forum fermented, it became known to everyone.

But how do you say this?

The smell of blood is not strong enough.

To put it bluntly, it was just as Mizutani Makoto expected. At most, they would be convicted of attempted bullying, and that would be enough for them to be laughed at.

Innocent students passing by complained that the news was not bloody enough. Why not make a bigger deal out of it, like making a video of someone jumping off a building or bullying? That would be exciting. With the current plot, who are they trying to fool?

The school's attitude was even more blunt. Why bother alerting the board of directors to such a trivial matter? They should just dampen the heat, manage public opinion on the forum, and let the class teacher handle the rest.

So they were called to the office by the head teacher.

Also going there was Mai Yajima, who was almost bullied.

The result was obvious. They were reprimanded by the head teacher and received a serious criticism through a notice.

But this storm soon passed.

As students, no one always pays attention to the punishment someone receives for making a mistake. Even after two days, people become indifferent to the matter.

If you have to say it, what makes Rika Nishimura most uncomfortable right now is her self-esteem.

"Let's not be so stubborn, shall we?"

Yokoi Tsubaki whispered.

"I think so too... Actually, ever since we started this, I've been thinking we're just random villains on the side of the road."

Ono Eri echoed.

"Huh, I actually feel better about being stopped... I can't imagine what would happen if the bullying succeeded. Are we going to bully Yajima every day from now on? This kind of play is unpopular no matter who it is, right? I feel like Rika is still too impulsive."

Yokoi Tsubaki said again.

Ota Akemi was more direct. She raised her head and complained, "Wrong, I feel like Rika is a complete idiot in this matter."

Rika Nishimura's mouth twitched slightly.

Ota Akemi added: "Actually, Yajima-san is quite easy to talk to. When I went to apologize to her the day before yesterday, she happily accepted it and said that if I treated her to a cup of milk tea, my apology would be successful."

"What? You even went to apologize to Hitoyajima?"

Rika Nishimura suddenly raised her voice.

"Good idea, I'll follow it."

"Oh my god, Mingmei, how could you sneak away so quickly? Are you not even taking me with you when you turn over a new leaf?"

Rika Nishimura took a deep breath to prevent herself from being angered to death by this group of traitors.

Are you guys here to perform a comedy?

"I think we should carry Rika over as well. She's a bit shy. It's better to wait for the manga author I'm reading to update ten chapters a day than to expect her to apologize to Yajima herself."

"hiss……"

"It makes sense."

Rika Nishimura covered her face and let out a desperate sigh.

The rain was pouring down outside the window, and her heart felt cold.

"Is this the reason I asked you to stay?"

She was very disappointed with the result.

Yokoi Tsubaki: "What else, Rika, do you still want to compete for the position of student council president?"

Ono Eri: "Hey, competing with that Yajima Shion? She's not as kind and cute as Yajima-san."

Ota Akemi: "The hope is slim. No, the probability of Rika succeeding can only be described as a miracle, right?"

Yokoi Tsubaki: "Is there a miracle?"

Ota Akemi: "Of course there is. Let's expose her and say that she was the one who ordered Rika to do this. Wouldn't that give us a slim chance of success?"

Ono Eri: "No, I feel like if we do that, we'll get suspended first, right?"

Yokoi Tsubaki: "I think what's more likely to happen is that we'll be beaten to death by our family elders with canes."

Rika Nishimura was speechless.

She stood in front of the window, looking at the playground in the distance, feeling shivering and cold. Could the world ever get better?

Otherwise, just like they said, apologize and see if we can put this matter behind us...

She was furious when she was driven away by Mizutani Makoto, but after calming down, she silently suppressed her desire for revenge.

Rika Nishimura was extremely upset. It had been more than a week, and Mai Yajima was still laughing in the classroom all day long, but she was still entangled in what happened a week ago, and she had the idea of ​​apologizing to smooth things over.
