"Qin Chuan, although I knew you were popular, I never imagined you'd be this popular..." X

Sitting in her chair, Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at Qin Chuan with a somewhat subtle expression, seemingly puzzled by his recent surge in popularity. (Mio)

He doesn't look much different from "233" a few weeks ago, so why are so many girls suddenly fawning over him?

Hiratsuka Shizuka carefully examined Qin Chuan and felt that if there was any change in him, it was probably that he had become more confident. (9)

However, Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't call Qin Chuan here this time to discuss Qin Chuan's changes.

"There's been so much talk about you lately, whether it's the girls you met at Shuchiin, or Eriri and Kasumigaoka."

Hiratsuka Shizuka sighed and said to Qin Chuan.

"Although I don't know which other girls you know, I hope you can be a little more careful and not cause any more of a commotion."

"I don't think there's a problem with me communicating normally with my classmates, right? Eriri and Kasumigaoka's actions were a bit intimate, but it wasn't exactly out of line, was it?"

Qin Chuan retorted with a smile—although he now had the confidence to break the rules, he had never violated any school regulations.

His interactions with the two girls from Shuchiin High School—Hayasaka Ai and Fujiwara Chika—at the school gate were all normal; he never did anything out of line.

Or rather, the outrageous things were all done in places far from school, places that were very private, so they couldn't possibly disturb other students, right?

As for Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri, they only put their arms around each other's arms in front of some classmates yesterday, nothing more.

Even more outrageous things, Qin Chuan did it with Eriri in the art club classroom—but of course, Qin Chuan wouldn't tell Hiratsuka Shizuka this.

"To be honest, it's not exactly outrageous... but because of you, many people are distracted all day, which makes things very difficult for us."

Hiratsuka Shizuka looked very troubled and shook her head.

"After all, you know how popular Eriri and Kasumigaoka are... right?"

Qin Chuan understood immediately upon hearing this—Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri were both outstanding in appearance and ability, and naturally had many admirers at school.

Now that Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri are so intimate with Qin Chuan alone at the school gate, many people naturally feel a sense of emptiness.

"I see, it's the resentment of single people."

Qin Chuan stroked his chin and succinctly summarized the situation for the affected students.

Because she felt unbalanced seeing other boys so popular, her mindset was affected, and even her study performance declined.

"...While that's true, I still hope you can consider the feelings of single people a little."

Hiratsuka Shizuka was speechless for a moment, and had to admit that Qin Chuan's summary was very accurate—but that did not change the fact that she disliked Qin Chuan's summary.

The reason is simple: Shizuka Hiratsuka herself is an older, single female teacher!

Despite her striking appearance, Hiratsuka Shizuka's personality and hobbies are far too mature for her age, and she even has a tendency towards violence, which is why she remains single to this day.

Although with Hiratsuka Shizuka's assets, she could still get married if she lowered her standards a little, she clearly wasn't planning on settling.

"Alright, I've delivered the message! If any school leaders ask you about it later, remember to tell them that I've already discussed this with you."

Perhaps hurt by Qin Chuan's words, Hiratsuka Shizuka waved her hand wearily at Qin Chuan and let him go.

It's infuriating! I came here to teach the students a lesson, but they broke my defenses instead. It's so frustrating.

……

"Achuan, why did Hiratsuka-sensei call you over just now?"

Back in the classroom, Kato Keika, who was sitting in the front row, turned around curiously and asked Qin Chuan.

The students in the classroom all witnessed Qin Chuan being called to Hiratsuka Shizuka's office, and naturally, they were very curious whether Qin Chuan had done something wrong.

Qin Chuan shrugged and told Kato Megumi what Hiratsuka Shizuka had just said.

As expected, after listening to Qin Chuan's retelling, Kato Megumi's face showed a serious expression, and she said to Qin Chuan:

"I think Hiratsuka-sensei is right. Agawa, you really should be careful about your image and not get too close to other girls."

"And then you only approached me, right?"

Qin Chuan chuckled and reached out to pinch Kato Megumi's cheek—it was so delicate and smooth, truly the kind of face a beautiful girl should have.

However, because of Kato Megumi's low profile, she didn't receive the same attention from others as Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha, and only Qin Chuan noticed her.

"If A-Chuan can accept it, that would be best."

Kato Megumi didn't slap Qin Chuan's hand away, letting Qin Chuan's fingers pinch her cheeks, and then said in a muffled voice.

"By the way, I've already told my family that I want to move out, and they've all agreed."

Clearly, Kato Megumi was prepared to live with Qin Chuan, and her parents were very open-minded—or rather, frighteningly so.

After all, it's sending their own daughter to live in a man's house; it's truly amazing that they agreed.

This statement, which would have caused a huge uproar if others had heard it, was made possible by Kato Megumi's low profile; the rest of the class completely missed their conversation.

When are you planning to move in?

Qin Chuan nodded, released his fingers from pinching Kato Megumi's cheek, and then brushed Kato Megumi's bangs aside.

Kato Megumi seemed to enjoy being touched by Qin Chuan and didn't refuse. Instead, she squinted her eyes and responded like a cat:

"I'm thinking of moving there tomorrow. Is it convenient for A-Chuan?"

Kato Megumi knew that there were still many people in Qin Chuan's family, so she tried her best not to cause trouble for others.

"Then come tomorrow."

Qin Chuan said with a smile, "Although there are many girls in my family, none of them have gone to school with me yet."

If Kato Megumi moves in, then I guess I'll have someone to keep me company on my way to school.

Chapter 436 Transfer Student from Another School

"I was so nervous about yesterday's performance, but thankfully everything went smoothly."

During lunchtime, everyone gathered in the Paranormal Research Club classroom as usual, where Kita Ikuyo was sharing her thoughts on yesterday's performance.

Although she managed to finish the performance in front of so many people yesterday, Kita Ikuyo still felt very nervous afterwards, feeling that she could have done better.

However, Kita Ikuyo is in much better condition. Thinking back to Goto Ichiri when he stepped off the stage yesterday, Qin Chuan felt that Goto Ichiri might collapse at any moment.

"Kita-kun has already played it very well."

Goto Ichiri spoke softly from the side, seemingly trying to encourage Kita Ikuyo's guitar skills.

Although the voice was very soft, everyone in the classroom had long been used to it—in fact, the fact that Goto Ichiri could now have a normal conversation was already a huge improvement.

"This is my first time attending a live performance... I didn't expect the atmosphere to be so good."

Eriri also looked at Goto Ichiri and Kita Ikuyo—although she had heard that the two of them were in a band before, yesterday was the first time Eriri had heard their band 16 play.

It must be said that for someone who had never been to a live band performance before, the atmosphere was indeed very novel and brought Eriri a different experience.

"How about we draw a band girl as the theme for the next book?"

Of course, Eriri is a doujinshi artist after all, and her thought process is different from that of ordinary people. She quickly came up with the topic of her next doujinshi.

It happened to be Eriri's first time hearing a band perform, which gave her a unique feeling. She thought that she might continue with this feeling and use a band as the theme for her next doujinshi.

However, even if Eriri were to draw it, she couldn't possibly use the band's ending as a model—Eriri knew it was very inappropriate to use her friends as models for characters in a doujinshi.

"Eri can come listen again next time, the band is currently writing their original songs."

Kato Megumi, who was in charge of logistics for the End Band, said with a smile that she certainly knew what the End Band's main goal was right now.

The band is currently writing their own original songs, intending to make a splash at their next performance.

Qin Chuan watched the group chat and nodded in satisfaction—the girls' harmonious relationship was naturally a good thing for him.

"Speaking of which, a transfer student joined our class this morning."

After discussing the end of the band's affairs, Kita Ikuyo quickly brought up a new topic.

For someone like Kita Ikuyo, who is a popular person, finding topics of conversation is as natural as eating, a skill that Goto Ichiri could never learn.

Just look at the envious look in Ichiri Goto's eyes as she looks at Ikuyo Kita; you can tell how much she wants that skill.

"Transfer students? It's almost finals, and there are still transfer students?"

Qin Chuan took a bite of the hamburger patty made by Kato Megumi and asked with some confusion.

It's almost July now, and students are starting to prepare for their final exams. Some are even planning where they'll go for summer vacation.

It does seem a bit strange that a transfer student would transfer in at this time.

Logically speaking, one could simply wait until the end of the semester at their original school and then transfer here next semester, which would at least not delay their studies.

"Yes, we also find it quite strange, but it's true that some transfer students have transferred here."

Kita Ikuyo nodded, clearly puzzled by the fact that there were now transfer students.

"I heard that a teacher at her former school suddenly died a violent death, and the cause of death has not yet been determined. I wonder if it's related to this."

"How did the topic suddenly shift to a murder case...?"

Eriri shuddered. They were eating right now, was it really okay to talk about this kind of thing?

Of course, despite saying that, everyone was clearly still very curious about what Kita Ikuyo was talking about—people are naturally curious.

"So how does Kita-kun know all this?"

"Because the teacher's father is apparently a local councilor, he made a huge fuss about it... You can see that if you watch the news."

Kita Ikuyo said, instantly revealing the fact that the people present never read the news.

"I think it was called something like Wisteria... Our new transfer student is from the school the deceased used to attend."

"Could it be that some kind of paranormal event has occurred...?"

Goto Ichiri's dark thought process suddenly veered to a strange place, thinking that the reason for transferring schools might be due to supernatural events.

It's not surprising that she's been having these strange thoughts lately, mainly because she often saw strange figures around Qin Chuan before.

Goto Ichiri's Stand aptitude is quite good, even stronger than many others, so even without awakening her Stand, one can still see the shadow of it.

However, it was precisely because of this that Goto Ichiri always felt there was something unclean in the school.

As Goto Ichiri finished speaking, the girls' conversation immediately shifted to paranormal events.

That does somewhat fit the name of the Paranormal Research Department. (Lin)

"Wisteria...Teacher, your father is a local councilor."

However, after hearing what Kita Ikuyo had said, Qin Chuan recalled the works he had read before his transmigration.

This surname and identity are very similar to the villain in a certain work I've been interested in.

After all, Saeko Busujima has appeared, which means this world is indeed a composite of that work, though she died a violent death... (9)

Qin Chuan immediately recalled the phone call Kiryu had made to him earlier, mentioning that a police chief named Miyamoto Tadashi had provided information about the "virus." (Five)

At the time, Kiryu also helped Miyamoto Masakazu awaken his Stand, making him a member of the Kiryu Group.

Qin Chuan remembered that Miyamoto Masashi was Miyamoto Rei's father... so it seemed reasonable that he assassinated Fujito Koichi using a body double to avenge his daughter?

Thinking of this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but chuckle. He hadn't expected that awakening a Stand for Miyamoto Masakazu would lead to this kind of development.

However, because "stand-ins" cannot be seen by ordinary people and cannot be captured by cameras and webcams, the cause of death of Koichi Fujito remains uncertain.

Koichi's father must be going crazy right now, having no idea who killed his son.

Although Miyamoto Masashi had a grudge against Fujiwara Koichi's father, as a local councilor, he had too many enemies to be sure of.

Having figured out the key to the matter, Qin Chuan no longer cared—as long as it didn't go against his own will, Qin Chuan usually wouldn't interfere with the daily activities of the Stand users.

He never imagined that this transfer student event would have anything to do with him.

Chapter 437 Miyamoto Rei Inquiring About Qin Chuan

"Ugh, so that Wisteria teacher is really disgusting."

In Kita Ikuyo's classroom, several girls were gathered around the transfer student's desk, eating lunch and chatting with him.

Almost every class has a few kind and outgoing people. If there is a transfer student, they will often contact the transfer student as soon as possible to help the transfer student integrate into the class.

Kita Ikuyo was originally this type of person, but nowadays Kita Ikuyo usually goes to the Paranormal Research Club at noon, so she's not here.

One of the girls overheard the transfer student describing her previous school and couldn't help but sigh:

"Miyamoto-kun has it tough, being suppressed by that disgusting teacher all day long."

That's right, the transfer student is Miyamoto Rei—at the behest of her father, Miyamoto Masashi, she transferred to the private Toyonosaki School.
