Zongman, gain super powers after helping others

"Yes, there is, but he probably doesn't really want to see me lately." Lin Qianshu stroked his chin.

He definitely has friends. Under normal circumstances, as long as his personality isn't too awkward, even if he doesn't make many friends, he'll definitely have one or two.

"If you don't want to see me, how can we be friends?" Yukino Yukinoshita felt that there was something wrong with Hayashi Chiki's statement.

Yukinoshita thought the other party would explain, but Lin Qianshu replied directly: "Sigh, you have no friends, you don't understand."

Chapter 8 The Golden Request!

"Sigh, you have no friends, you don't understand."

"Cough cough..."

Yukino Yukinoshita was drinking tea when she heard Lin Qianshu's words and was so angry that she choked.

Don't you understand what it means to have no friends?

LOL, she doesn't really want friends either. Has no one told you that this is pretentious?

Despite Yukino Yukinoshita's unfriendly expression, Lin Qianshu continued, "I'll ask him about it later. Besides, how does our department usually handle things when there's no commission?"

After pondering for a moment, Yukino Yukinoshita looked up at Chiki Hayashi and replied uncertainly, "Reading?"

"Why is it a question?" Lin Qianshu complained.

“If there’s no commission, just do what you need to do,” Yukino Yukinoshita said seriously, then added after thinking for a moment, “It’s best not to make too much of a commotion.”

"Will other departments file complaints?"

"It will disturb my reading."

Lin Qianshu was convinced. Seeing that Yukino Yukinoshita had already opened the paperback, he simply took out his own phone as well.

Even when reading, he uses his phone. After all, a paperback isn't much bigger than a phone, so why not use his phone? Turning pages on a phone is even more convenient!

Speaking of cell phones, Lin Qianshu didn't quite understand why so many high school students around him still preferred flip phones with keypads, even though they had already entered the era of smartphones.

However, since he had already taken out his phone, Lin Qianshu looked at Yukino Yukinoshita and said:

"Yukoshita-san."

"what's up?"

Do you have Line?

Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Chiki Hayashi's phone, closed the book she had just opened, and then took out her own phone from her bag... a touchscreen phone.

"Here you go." Yukinoshita pulled up her Line ID and then handed her phone directly to Lin Qianshu.

After knowing each other for two weeks, the two officially exchanged contact information.

The process was uneventful, with no heart-pounding excitement, and both parties felt it was a trivial matter.

After Lin Qianshu finished operating the phone, he handed it back to Yukinoshita. Only after receiving the phone did Yukinoshita belatedly realize that she had been added to the contact list by a member of the opposite sex.

I didn't think much of it at first, but after thinking about it, Xuexia's heart inexplicably started beating faster.

Yukino Yukinoshita secretly glanced at Chiki Hayashi, who was using her phone, and when she found that he didn't seem to have any particular reaction, she secretly scolded herself for overthinking.

As a minister, what's wrong with exchanging contact information with your department members?

"dudu~"

The phone suddenly vibrated. Yukinoshita turned on the screen and saw that it was a cat emoji sent by Lin Qianshu.

Unlike ordinary cute cat emojis, the cat that Lin Qianshu posted... is hard for Yukinoshita to describe in words.

The picture shows an orange cat. It's unclear whether it's due to the shooting angle or because the cat is in a state of stress, but its ears are flattened behind its head, giving it an overall impression of being both fierce and cowardly, honest yet dishonest.

Where did you find the cat pictures?

This emoji isn't cute at all, but it always makes you want to save it. In fact, that's exactly what Yukinoshita did. She silently long-pressed the image to save it, and then politely replied to Hayashi Chiki with a 'hello'.

And right after sending that "hello", Yukinoshita received another emoji. It was the same cat, but with a rose added, making it seem like the cat was delivering flowers.

As usual, long press and save.

Your emojis are great, but they're mine now.jpg

Even Yukino herself probably didn't realize that she was already starting to smile.

"Speaking of which, Yukinoshita is clearly very popular, so why doesn't she have any friends?" Lin Qianshu deliberately brought up a sore spot.

As expected, Yukinoshita's upturned lips immediately fell back upon hearing Lin Qianshu's words. She also looked away from her phone, stared at Lin Qianshu for a moment, and then looked away again.

"...You have friends, you don't understand."

OK, a boomerang, right?

Lin Qianshu wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the girl's cheeks seemed to have puffed up.

Looking at the turbulent emotions swirling around the girl, Lin Qianshu said, "Who says I don't understand? Hmm... You can be happy on your own. It's the idea of ​​insisting on being with someone else that's pathetic, right?"

"..." Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Chiki Hayashi, then immediately looked away and closed her eyes, as if she was thinking about something.

"It's annoying when someone pities you even though you like being alone, right?"

“You have very few friends!” Yukino Yukinoshita said, as if in a fit of pique.

People who are too perceptive don't make many friends. Yukino Yukinoshita has met many people with high emotional intelligence who are good at social maneuvering, but she has never met anyone like Chiki Hayashi.

—It's like they can read minds.

"Haha, sorry, sorry, it's just that Yukinoshita is easy to guess."

Me? Easy to guess?

Yukino Yukinoshita felt that Chiki Hayashi was being sarcastic. All her experiences from childhood had been telling her one thing: people cannot understand each other.

“No one has ever thought that way before, if…” Yukinoshita seemed to be talking to herself, but it also seemed to be answering Hayashi Chiki’s words.

In short, after saying that, Yukinoshita curled up like a hedgehog, picked up her book, and used her actions to show Lin Qianshu that she was now refusing to chat.

Lin Qianshu had no objection to it, since he had already achieved his goal.

In Lin Qianshu's line of sight, a golden exclamation mark appeared above Xue Zhixia's head.

See, the commission has arrived!

After two weeks of research, Lin Qianshu had gained a basic understanding of the mechanism of the willpower system.

First, not just anyone's wish can generate wish points; that person must have a certain connection with him, or rather, a cause-and-effect relationship.

Secondly, wishes also have levels. The lowest level should be gray, which only gives a little wish power. Lin Qianshu's first wish power was obtained by completing a gray wish. The highest level should be gold, which is the one that just appeared above Yukinoshita's head.

Third, there are many ways to trigger a wish, but after several days of testing, Lin Qianshu found that when the target's emotions fluctuate greatly, it is easier to trigger a wish, which was also verified in Yukinoshita.

Fourth, the difficulty of completing wishes varies depending on their level. Lin Qianshu can see gray-level wishes directly, while he cannot obtain any information from gold-level wishes at all.

Lin Qianshu initially deduced two possibilities: one was that high-level wishes would have prerequisite tasks, and the other was that his relationship with Yukinoshita was not yet in place, and she did not intend to entrust her wish to him.

The two possibilities mentioned above are not independent; they may coexist.

But no matter what, Lin Qianshu felt that since Xue Zhixia could display an exclamation mark, there must be a solution someday.

It's not that I'm afraid of having a difficult wish, it's that I'm afraid of having no wish at all!

Chapter 9 Hachiman Resolves to Die

The next day after school, when Lin Qianshu arrived at the Service Club activity room, Yukino Yukinoshita was already sitting in her seat reading a book.

Upon seeing Lin Qianshu arrive, Xue Zhi didn't show much emotion, simply saying "Please come in" before falling silent.

Well, it wasn't exactly over. After Lin Qianshu sat down, a cup of hot tea in a paper cup was placed in front of him.

By the time Lin Qianshu looked at Xue Zhi, the girl had already sat back down and picked up her book to read.

However, while Yukino Yukinoshita appeared to be reading a book, her mind was not on the book at all. Her gaze seemed to be on the pages, but she was secretly observing Lin Qianshu out of the corner of her eye.

Upon noticing Lin Qianshu looking at her, Yukinoshita's face tightened, and she subtly shifted her attention from the corner of her eye to the words in the book, as if she had been focusing entirely on the book from the very beginning.

"You haven't turned the page for almost two minutes, have you?" Lin Qianshu kindly reminded him.

Yukinoshita took a deep breath, and just when Lin Qianshu thought the other party would respond, she... turned the page.

"Pfft..."

"(suck)……"

Upon hearing Lin Qianshu's soft laughter, Yukinoshita couldn't maintain her composure even with deep breaths.

"Lin Qianshu, classmate."

"I'm here."

"Has anyone not told you to be as quiet as possible when others are reading?"

"Sorry, sorry, but is Yukinoshita really reading a book?"

Seeing Lin Qianshu looking at her with a half-smile, Yukinoshita really wanted to say "of course," but the words involuntarily changed to another topic.

"Hiratsuka-sensei will be bringing people over later, it's about the thing I told you about yesterday." Yukino Yukinoshita didn't choose to answer Hayashi Chiki's previous question, but it seemed like she had answered it.

Faced with the girl's clumsy attempt to change the subject, Lin Qianshu didn't press the issue further. Teasing her occasionally was fine, but if she angered Yukinoshita, things would get messy.

What is the most important thing in being a person?

It's about timing and precision.

What jokes are acceptable and what jokes are not, what actions are appropriate and what actions are not, all reflect a person's intelligence and emotional intelligence.

Some people always use jokes as an excuse to be rude, making fun of others without any sense of propriety, and then blaming you for not being able to take a joke once you get angry.

This kind of person can be summed up in one word: despicable!

However, appropriate jokes can help enhance relationships, but it is not recommended for ordinary people to play them, especially when facing a high-level BOSS like Yukinoshita, it is easy to make a mistake. It is only because Lin Qianshu has a cheat that he can sense Yukinoshita's emotions in real time and make timely adjustments, otherwise, do you think Lin Qianshu would dare to be so cheeky?

I just don't know how far our feelings need to go before Yukinoshita is willing to openly express her wishes.

Lin Qianshu was so eager for that golden wish power request that if he could give a little bit of wish power to the gray ones, wouldn't the golden one take off?

"When are you coming?" Lin Qianshu asked.

Yukino shook her head: "I don't know, but it should be soon, and it's unlikely they'll knock on the door."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the classroom door was pushed open.

"I'm coming in, Yukinoshita~" x2

A familiar voice rang out, only this time there was also harmony.

Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Lin Qianshu, who was parroting her words, and found that the other party was grinning at her in a sly way. She couldn't help but smirk, but quickly suppressed it.

"Oh, you're here too." Hiratsuka Shizuka waved, as if to say hello to Hayashi Chiki.

"Good afternoon, Ms. Hiratsuka Shizuka who doesn't like to knock." Lin Qianshu mimicked Yukinoshita's expression, looking at Hiratsuka Shizuka with a serious face, but of course, what she said was anything but serious.

"You rascal." Hiratsuka Shizuka knew Lin Qianshu was joking, so she didn't take it too seriously. Instead, she turned to the people behind her and said, "What are you standing there for at the door? Why aren't you coming in?"

Yukinoshita and Hayashi Chiki both turned their gazes to the classroom door, where a boy in a school uniform with dead fish eyes reluctantly walked in.

Thanks to his signature dead fish eyes, Lin Qianshu easily recognized the boy as Hachiman Hikigaya, his classmate, and most likely one of the culprits who had kept him locked up at home for two weeks.

It's worth mentioning that Lin Qianshu noticed a hint of surprise flash in Yukinoshita's eyes after seeing Hachiman Hikigaya (actually observed through emotional perception), and she quickly shifted her gaze to the side, just in time to meet Lin Qianshu's eyes, who was secretly observing her.

Well, judging from Yukinoshita's reaction, Lin Qianshu knew that the other party was probably also a person involved in that car accident.

Why is this neon light so small?

Meanwhile, Hachiman Hikigaya, who was standing to the side, had no intention of joining any clubs. He only came today because of the intimidation of Iron Fist, thinking he would just go through the motions and then continue with his peaceful life.

Especially after seeing that his classmate, Lin Qianshu, was also in this club, Hikigaya became even more determined not to join the club!

Even if you let him join the soccer club, he can't join this club!

Hachiman couldn't even imagine how awkward their relationship would become after the other person found out that he had caused the dog to suffer an undeserved disaster while trying to save it.

In other words, by not joining this club, he was actually saving it!

Ugh, I should have gone after them with Yui yesterday and explained things clearly. By the way, is it too late to apologize now?

Hachiman Hikigaya's mind raced, and he finally came to a conclusion: why not just explode at the other party?
