Zongman, gain super powers after helping others

'Has it been a year already?' Lin Qianshu wondered how he could have never run into the other person since they had lived here for almost a year.

Lin Qianshu quickly figured out the answer. Unlike him, others had their own clubs to join, while he, from the Home Return Club, went straight home after school, so of course he wouldn't run into them.

Moreover, Lin Qianshu doesn't go out often. Even on holidays, she usually stays at home. Apart from going out with friends, her activity radius is mostly limited to nearby shopping malls.

Even when they go to the supermarket, they usually have a clear purpose, buy what they need, and go home immediately, never wasting a single moment outside.

"Ding~"

The elevator door opens.

Lin Qianshu gestured for the ladies to go first, while Yukinoshita took a step back, demonstrating through her actions that patients should be given priority.

A high-level office worker who had just finished work couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw this scene. He was already tired enough after a day's work, and now he had to come home and witness the youth of young people. Could he ever get any better from this?

Lin Qianshu saw the overflowing resentment of the corporate slave, so dark it was like Sadako emerging from the dead of night, it was unbearable.

Without further ado, she quickly got on the elevator with her crutches. Yukinoshita seemed to realize that she was inconveniencing others, so she hurriedly followed her up.

Perhaps noticing the overwhelming deathly aura on the middle-aged man's face, Yukino Yukinoshita subtly moved closer to Chiki Hayashi, while also noticing that the floor Chiki Hayashi pressed was right below her apartment.

"Yukinoshita-san, do you need me to press the floor button for you?" Lin Qianshu noticed Yukinoshita's gaze and assumed that she wanted him to press the elevator button for her.

“It’s just one floor up, thank you.” Yukinoshita accepted Lin Chiki’s kindness.

After saying that, the elevator fell silent again, with only the hum of the motor audible. With the first 'ding,' the office workers who had been in the same elevator with them got off at the bottom.

The elevator doors slowly closed, and they once again had time to be alone.

This time, however, no one spoke.

Yukinoshita's gaze involuntarily shifted to the left leg of the boy beside her. After hesitating for a long time, unsure of what to say, she finally shut her mouth.

'Ding~'

When Lin Qianshu arrived at his floor, he suddenly turned back to Yukinoshita after stepping out of the elevator and said, "See you in two weeks, Minister."

Before Yukinoshita could reply, the elevator doors closed. Looking at the silver-white elevator doors, the girl shook her head and whispered to herself, "See you in two weeks."

—Two weeks later—

Fully recovered, Lin Qianshu returned to his loyal Class 2-F. Well, the reality is that hardly anyone noticed Lin Qianshu at all.

Because of the class division in the second year of high school, his friends were not assigned to Class F. In addition, Lin Qianshu had not come to school for nearly two weeks, and the small cliques in the class had basically formed. As expected, he was excluded. Apart from a few curious guys who cast their gazes at him, the rest of the people had no desire to communicate with him.

Japan's clique culture is absolutely awful.

Although Lin Qianshu thought this way, he did not have any intention of actively joining any small group.

As Mr. Zhou Shuren once said: Wild beasts live alone, while cattle and sheep travel in herds.

Rather than joining a small group, Lin Qianshu prefers to form a small group with people he finds agreeable. If there aren't any people he finds agreeable, then he won't form a group.

It is better to have nothing than to have something of poor quality.

For some reason, Lin Qianshu felt like someone was watching him as he sat in his seat, and a chill ran down his spine.

Lin Qianshu always trusted his intuition. He immediately looked around like a lion surveying its territory, using his emotional perception on each person his gaze fell upon.

What is the process of elimination? The process of elimination.

If you have a cheat code, can people still spy on you?

Believe it or not, Lin Qianshu actually caught someone when he scanned the area. As soon as he looked at the guy, the guy immediately looked away, clearly showing that he was feeling guilty.

And to be honest, this was the first time Lin Qianshu had ever seen textbook-perfect dead fish eyes.

Is he the reincarnation of a salted fish spirit?

It looks familiar, have I seen it somewhere before?

……

Damn it! Lin Qianshu remembered, this guy was the brave man who risked his life to save the dog!

Even if the tuft of hair on the other person's head turned to ash, Lin Qianshu could still recognize it. No, why are you risking your life for a dog?

Fun fact: Walking a dog without a leash is the same as the dog walking itself.

Thinking about this, Lin Qianshu's mood also turned sour. If it weren't for the shame and guilt he saw in the other person, Lin Qianshu would have definitely tried to give Dead Fish Eyes a good beating.

As for now... he'll remember this grudge for now.

However, the matter was not over yet. Even after confirming that the dog lover was no longer looking at him, Lin Qianshu still couldn't shake the feeling of being spied on.

Are there any experts?

Lin Qianshu, filled with doubt, thought that since she had already read it all, she might as well read it all and consider it a way of getting to know her classmates.

...No, there really are some experts?

Lin Qianshu's gaze fell on a pink-haired girl. Because of the distance, he couldn't see her face clearly, but she must be quite cute. As for the basis, he had no idea, just a pure intuition.

However, none of these are the main points. The main point is that Lin Qianshu also sensed feelings of shame and guilt from him, which were even stronger than those of the dead-fish-eyed classmate from before!

Are you also involved in the car accident?

A pair of notorious thieves? A dog-loving couple?

It was so bizarre that even Lin Qianshu was stumped.

After school, Lin Qianshu prepared to pack his things and go to the special building for club activities. He hadn't been idle at home for the past two weeks and had basically figured out the system's operating logic. He planned to wait until the Service Department officially started helping people.

In addition, Lin Qianshu also noticed that the two divine beings seemed to still be staring at him. When they saw him stand up from his seat, they probably wanted to come up and talk to him, but for some reason they sat down again.

You know what, these two are pretty much in sync, did they plan this together?

Seeing that the two had no intention of looking for him, Lin Qianshu didn't take the initiative to approach them and ask what business they had, so he left the classroom directly.

After Lin Qianshu left, the pink-haired girl hesitated for a moment, then approached the dead-eyed boy and asked, "Qi, what do we do now?"

Chapter 7 You Have No Friends, You Don't Understand

The floor where the Service Department was located was as quiet as ever. After two weeks, Lin Qianshu felt as if she had been in another world when she came to this classroom again.

"Dong Dong~"

Lin Qianshu made a decision that went against Hiratsuka Shizuka's wishes—she knocked on the door.

However, after waiting for a long time without hearing a response from inside, Lin Qianshu took a step back and looked up at the doorplate. It was blank. This should be the right place, right?

Lin Qianshu felt that he was not so old that he would forget the place he had been to after only two weeks, especially since this place was the club he had just joined.

Fortunately, he was not one to sit idly by and wait for his fate. He immediately decided to follow the example of his wise teacher, Hiratsuka Shizuka, and open the door directly.

"Click~"

As expected, the classroom door couldn't be opened, which actually relieved Lin Qianshu.

"Let me do it." A clear female voice rang out from behind him, startling Lin Qianshu so much that his hair stood on end.

Why does this girl walk so quietly?

The visitor was Yukino Yukinoshita, who, as the president of the Service Club, naturally held the key to this classroom.

Yukino skillfully inserted the key into the lock, the latch clicked, and the door opened.

"The teacher was a few minutes late before get out of class ended," Yukino explained, explaining why she hadn't arrived before Hayashi Chiki.

The international education class that Yukinoshita attends is geographically closer to the Service Club, so she should usually be making tea in the classroom by now.

"It's okay, I just arrived too." Lin Qianshu felt that this sentence was the worst possible social phrase for a date.

The woman arrived later than the man and looked apologetic for being late. The man, trying to be a gentleman, replied, "I just arrived too," even though he had actually been out for quite a while.

Fortunately, Lin Qianshu was not the man described above. The windows on the floor were closed, so there was no wind. And he had indeed just arrived.

"Please come in." Yukinoshita opened the classroom door and walked in, turning slightly to signal Lin Qianshu to follow.

This action made Lin Qianshu feel like she wasn't there to participate in a club activity, but rather to visit Yukinoshita's home.

Thinking about it carefully, it really doesn't seem to make much difference. After all, before he joined the Service Club, this classroom was always occupied by Yukinoshita alone, and it was her private territory.

Thinking of this, Lin Qianshu solemnly said, "Sorry to bother you."

Yukino Yukinoshita was taken aback by these words, and couldn't help but smile and remind them, "This is a classroom, not my home."

"No, it's mainly because of your 'Please come in' earlier. If I didn't follow it with 'Excuse me,' it just felt like something was missing."

Once seated, the familiar 2-3 meter safe social distance was maintained.

It seems that this seat has never been moved since I left that day, but judging from the amount of dust, it must have been cleaned by Yukina.

However, it was probably not a special cleaning, but rather a quick wipe with a cloth during routine cleaning.

Lin Qianshu wasn't so self-conscious that the other person would go out of their way to wipe her chair.

"How's your...leg?"

After taking her seat, Yukino Yukinoshita hesitated for a moment, but still asked the question. It was clear that she was still bothered by it, which was normal. For people with a conscience, guilt is not something that can be easily dispelled, even if the victim has clearly expressed forgiveness.

Especially since that person is Yukino Yukinoshita.

Although he hadn't spent much time with her, Lin Qianshu was able to glean insights into the girl's character from certain details.

"The doctor said I can't run or jump yet and need to rest for a while, but walking normally is no longer a problem."

"Really? That's good."

Yukinoshita felt a little relieved, and then she remembered Hiratsuka Shizuka's request. Since it involved recruiting new members, Yukinoshita decided to listen to Hayashi Chiki's opinion.

“Recruiting new members? Of course, you’re the minister, so you decide.” Lin Qianshu had no objection. His goal was to help people solve problems and earn wish points. One more new member would be equivalent to one more free laborer.

Seeing that Hayashi Chiki did not object, Yukinoshita also felt that she could accept the commission, but of course she still had to see how the person introduced by Hiratsuka Shizuka was.

"Speaking of which, besides Ms. Hiratsuka Shizuka, does anyone else in our department come to post requests?" Lin Qianshu asked.

Yukino Yukinoshita paused in her tea-pouring, placed the paper cup in front of Chiki Hayashi's table, and shook her head regretfully, saying, "I really don't want to say this, but it's true."

"I see... Can I ask you a question, Yukinoshita-san?"

"please say."

"Do you have any friends?"

Upon hearing this, in Lin Qianshu's vision, the aura surrounding the girl, representing her emotions, began to change color continuously, and his gaze shifted accordingly.

Panic, embarrassment, awkwardness, shame and anger...

Hmm, it seems there aren't any left.

Upon receiving the information transmitted back from the emotional perception system, Lin Qianshu understood the situation.

Indeed, sometimes people who are too outstanding don't make many friends.

However, it is quite rare for someone like Yukinoshita to have no friends at all.

Thinking this, Lin Qianshu decided to give Yukinoshita a way out, since he didn't mean to embarrass her. In fact, he simply wanted Yukinoshita to use her social media to bring in some business for the service department.

I didn't expect she didn't even have any posts on WeChat Moments!

"That……"

"Um... could you please define what constitutes a friendship?"

Just as Lin Qianshu was thinking about how to offer a way out, Yukinoshita spoke up somewhat awkwardly.

Lin Qianshu: ...

He sighed and said, "No need. People who say things like that usually have no friends."

Yukino under the snow has a slightly reddish hue.

But she didn't know how to react. If it were anyone else, Yukinoshita would have already switched to her sarcastic personality by now. But the problem was that the person in front of her was Hayashi Chiki. Her own car had taken him to the hospital just half a month ago, and he had only just recovered. This made it impossible for Yukinoshita to be sarcastic.

"What does this have to do with whether I have friends or not?" Yukinoshita was a little unconvinced.

"We need to build our reputation by handling requests from our friends. Otherwise, if we just sit here in the classroom like this, we probably won't get any requests at all," Lin Qianshu explained.

Yukinoshita had thought about this problem before, but the key issue was that she had no friends!

No, she doesn't have any friends. Doesn't Lin Qianshu have any?

If not, that would be even better; it would be a perfect opportunity to bounce back the 'taunts' I just received.

"Don't you have any friends?" Yukinoshita asked in return.
