Zongman, gain super powers after helping others

Lin Qianshu came to Japan during her junior high school years. Even though she had friends from elementary school, they had almost all lost touch.

"If you're looking for comfort from him, you're probably going to be disappointed, stay in the US."

The one who spoke was Yukino Yukinoshita. She had noticed Rumi Tsurumi when Chiki Hayashi jumped into the water, but she didn't know how to approach her.

After seeing that Lin Qianshu had successfully made contact with the other party, she decided to come and check on the situation. Yui Hama accompanied her.

After noticing Rumi Tsurumi's gaze, the pink-haired girl waved and greeted her in a very friendly manner.

Unfortunately, Tsurumi Rumi didn't react to her attempts to be friendly, but instead looked at Yukinoshita and couldn't help but ask:

"why?"

"Because he didn't go to elementary school here, if you really want to know... you can ask Yuihama."

Rumi Tsurumi glanced at Yuihama and noticed that she was looking at her expectantly. She quickly turned her head away to avoid eye contact.

Yuihama showed a disappointed expression.

Seeing this, Yukinoshita stepped in and asked, "Yuihama, how many of your elementary school classmates do you still see now?"

"Well... if it's just about going out to have fun, there's probably one or two people, right?" Yuihama counted, resting her index finger on her chin.

"So how many people were in your class?"

"Each class has thirty students, and there are three classes in total."

"That's about ninety people. Given that, it's easy to conclude that the probability of maintaining a friendship five years after graduating from elementary school is three to six percent. Even the shrewd and worldly Yui can only manage that much."

"So shrewd and charming... Me? Hehe." Yuihama grinned foolishly, thinking Yukinoshita was praising her.

"Yuigahama-san, 'being versatile' isn't a compliment," Yukinoshita reminded her helplessly.

"Eh! Is that so?!" Yuihama once again showed a disappointed expression.

Yukinoshita continued, "This means the data needs further filtering to remove any inconsistencies. Under normal circumstances, the probability should be around one percent. This shows that your elementary school friends aren't actually as important as you might think; the vast majority are just fleeting figures in your life."

“That’s right, there’s no need to take things too seriously about studying in the US. Just take it easy,” Yui Hama also chimed in, offering timely words of comfort.

Listening to the words of the two kind older sisters, Liu Mei's expression softened somewhat, but she still hesitated.

"...But my mom wouldn't accept it. She often asks me if I get along well with my friends, and she even bought me a camera so I could take lots of camping photos."

"Was it a camera you bought specifically for camping?" Lin Qianshu was a little surprised, but considering the special nature of activities like graduation trips, it was reasonable to spend money to buy a camera specifically for this purpose.

"Oh, I see... You have a wonderful mother who worries about you so much."

Yuihama didn't think there was anything wrong with Tsurumi's mother... Actually, there wasn't anything wrong with her. A mother who would buy a camera specifically to create beautiful memories for her daughter is undoubtedly a good mother.

However, while a mother's love is good, this puts pressure on Tsurumi Rumi. If she hadn't been ostracized before, this task would have been easy, but now, let alone taking photos, she probably can't even find anyone.

This brand new camera probably only contains photos of him and Yukinoshita.

Lin Qianshu felt that if it was just a matter of dealing with it, there were many ways to do it. Although she would lose her peers and friends while studying in the United States, these high school students could still be her friends.

Making friends with elementary school students is obviously more valuable than making friends with high school students.

Whether he can win over his mother is unclear, but at least it's acceptable.

Just as Lin Qianshu was about to personally impart some essential journalism knowledge to Tsurumi Rumi, Yukinoshita suddenly activated gravity.

"Is that so... In my opinion, it is a symbol of domination, discipline, and possessiveness."

……

I almost forgot that Yukino Yukinoshita's problem also seems to be related to her mother; how similar they are?

Yuihama was clearly taken aback by Yukino's words and, unaware of the situation, appeared quite flustered.

"Wait a minute, this... this isn't right, is it? Saying it like this... is a bit..."

"That's a bit too extreme," Lin Qianshu said, speaking up for Yuihama. "Generally speaking, if parents don't love their children, they won't bother with this kind of thing, let alone specifically tell them to take good photos with their friends."

Upon hearing what Lin Qianshu said, Yukino pursed her lips, turned her head to the side as if she dared not meet his gaze, and after a moment of silence, she slowly exhaled.

“You’re right…that’s usually the case.”

She immediately apologized to Liu Mei for her slip of the tongue, saying, "I'm sorry, I lost my composure and said some irresponsible things."

Rumi didn't expect Yukinoshita to apologize for this, and she was a little at a loss, subconsciously looking at Lin Qianshu.

Seeing this, Lin Qianshu naturally stepped in to help, saying, "Since that's the case, how about we take some more photos? That way we can also appease your mother's request. It's worth mentioning that my photography skills are quite good."

"is this okay?"

“What’s wrong with that? I can be your friend too. But you don’t need to take pictures of me. You can take pictures of those older girls. That way your mom will feel more at ease.”

"You just want their photos, don't you!" Rumi Tsurumi exposed.

Then she looked at Yukino Yukinoshita and asked, "Isn't he doing anything about this?

"Who cares?"

"Aren't you two boyfriend and girlfriend? Even your swimsuits are matching."

Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita couldn't keep her composure and blushed as she corrected, "That's not true!"

Just as Yukinoshita was thinking about how to explain her relationship with Hayashi Chiki to Rumi, someone else joined the conversation.

"Yui, what are you doing here? Come and play!"

The speaker was none other than Yumiko Miura!

------

PS: And...

Chapter 129 Small is also very cute

Upon seeing a stranger join the conversation, Tsurumi Rumi immediately shut her mouth and then quietly shielded Hayashi Chiki in front of her.

However, Tsurumi Rumi was unaware that Miura Yumiko had come specifically for Hayashi Chiki.

"You two made plans to play together, what are you doing here?" Miura Yumiko asked, glancing at Lin Qianshu, and then immediately noticing the little bean sprout hiding behind Lin Qianshu.

Is this the child we talked about yesterday?

The thought immediately popped into Miura Yumiko's mind, but then another thought arose: the other person was so close to Lin Qianshu.

It wasn't that she was jealous or anything; she wouldn't be jealous of a primary school student. What she was thinking was that since the other person would hide behind Lin Qianshu, it meant that her relationship with Lin Qianshu was better than she had expected.

The problem is that, based on Tsurumi Rumi's previous personality, she is clearly not the type to take the initiative to build good relationships with others. Now that she has a good relationship with Hayashi Chiki, it means that Hayashi Chiki is the one who takes the initiative in social interactions.

Similarly, it can be concluded that Lin Qianshu cared more about Tsurumi Rumi than expected, and his previous statement about helping her was not just empty talk, but a genuine intention.

In that case...shouldn't I also adjust my attitude a bit?

Without much hesitation, Miura Yumiko bent down slightly and smiled at Tsurumi Rumi, saying, "Hello, Rumi-chan, we've met before, do you remember?"

"I don't remember." Rumi Tsurumi told the truth. She really didn't have any impression of Yumiko Miura. She only knew that the other party was the classmate of the popular older brother. They had never spoken to each other.

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Miura Yumiko, and I'm his classmate." Miura Yumiko pointed to Hayashi Chiki.

Tsurumi looked at Hayashi Chiki, somewhat puzzled as to why the other woman had specifically mentioned this during her self-introduction.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Just classmates?"

"They are also good friends."

They even wanted to remove the character '子'.

"I see..." Tsurumi Rumi gradually understood everything.

"Want to play with your older sister?" Yumiko Miura invited with a smile.

Tsurumi Rumi did not answer, but left Hayashi Chiki and instead pulled Yukinoshita to her side.

Yumiko Miura could no longer smile.

Seeing this, Yukino sighed and said to Yuihama, "You go and have fun first, I'll take care of things here."

"Received, received!" Yuihama had been very nervous since just now, fearing that Miura Yumiko and Yukino Yukinoshita would start World War III.

Fortunately, both sides have exercised restraint because of what happened yesterday and are trying to avoid communicating with each other as much as possible, so a conflict is unlikely.

Yuihama wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Yumiko's mood had improved a lot after the night. She had been so angry last night that she couldn't sleep and had been playing on her phone until late at night before finally going to bed...

Yumiko Miura glanced at Yukinoshita with some displeasure. What did she mean by "Go play first"? It was as if she needed Yuihama's permission to play with her.

But the moment her gaze swept over Yukino's chest, Miura Yumiko's initial displeasure vanished, replaced by a strange sense of pleasure.

Hmph, C vs. A, win!

Yukinoshita Yukino:?

Sensing Yumiko Miura's gaze and her changing emotions, Yukinoshita looked down at her swimsuit, somewhat confused.

I didn't get any strange stuff on me, did I?

Why does this guy suddenly look like he's won?

Watching Miura Yumiko's departing figure, Yukinoshita turned to Hayashi Chiki and asked, "Is there something on me?"

"Can't you just look down and see it?"

That's why I asked you.

"My answer just now is the problem."

"..."

Yukinoshita looked confused, but soon, as if realizing something, she covered her chest with her hands.

"It's alright. Judging from Yang Nai's current development, Yukino, your future prospects are quite promising," Lin Qianshu comforted her.

Yukino glared angrily at them. Although Tsurumi Rumi didn't understand what the couple was talking about, she wisely kept her distance and unconsciously looked towards the riverbank.

Looking forward to the diving performance...

"Who cares about that? Ultimately, people's success or failure is not determined by external characteristics. Even if we were to determine winners and losers based on appearance, we should adopt a relative evaluation and make a judgment based on overall balance. So I don't care at all. On the contrary, it's the other party who is getting hung up on this and it's still unknown who the loser is..."

If you really don't care, why say so much?

Just as Lin Qianshu was about to speak, he saw Yukino Yukinoshita reveal a captivating smile.

She said, "You're right, aren't you?"

I feel like if I say the wrong thing, he's going to fly away again.

“Yes! Absolutely right! It would be too superficial to judge the winner solely by size. Besides, Yukino is so beautiful, there’s no need for you to worry about this.” Lin Qianshu nodded in agreement.

When it comes to figure, Yumiko Miura is the most authoritative, but in terms of facial refinement, Yukino Yukinoshita is still superior.

Even Yukinoshita Haruno, who is his older sister, is not as good as Yukino in this respect, in Lin Chishu’s opinion.

Of course, Yang is also quite beautiful.

"...I already said I don't care."

Yukino Yukinoshita was still being stubborn, but her gaze couldn't help but drift towards Yuihama and Miura, who were splashing water on each other not far away. Then she looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka, and finally, after wandering around, she looked back at herself and let out a very faint sigh.

"What's wrong with her?"

Finding there was nothing to watch while diving, Tsurumi Rumi returned to Hayashi Chiki's side and asked, puzzled.

"It's nothing, just the growing pains."

"Growing pains?"

"You'll understand when you get to high school."

Although girls usually start puberty earlier than boys, and some signs can be seen as early as junior high school, there is an old saying that goes, "You won't cry until you see the coffin." Usually, there is no rush at the beginning, and the real rush usually starts near the end.

"High school..." Tsurumi Rumi thought for a moment, feeling it was somewhat distant, yet inexplicably close.

She then asked, "Will my situation and that unpleasant feeling change after I go to high school...?"

"If you continue to stay like this, you probably won't find it annoying, because you'll be numb to it."

"Sounds pretty good?"

"Just because you don't feel pain doesn't mean the pain doesn't exist."

After recovering, Yukinoshita coldly corrected Tsurumi Rumi's erroneous viewpoint, then spoke as if to Rumi and herself at the same time.

"If no changes are made, whatever we do is essentially just escaping."
