Tokyo: Love Begins with Controlling the Rich Girl

“But Mr. Thug is using my body now.”

"..."

Yes, he's still logged in.

He was summoned and suddenly had to go see the young lady's mother.

Shimada Sho glanced at the countdown on the system panel:

[Remaining time for this connection: 08:31]

During these eight minutes, he can choose to log out voluntarily.

However, the task requires logging in for three consecutive days, which means you must complete all three logins.

Therefore, he cannot leave yet.

Left with no other choice, Shimada Sho had to bite the bullet and go upstairs.

Under the protection of a group of bodyguards and led by the butler, they arrived at the reception room on the top floor of the teaching building.

After the housekeeper announced the arrival, he gently pushed open the door.

A graceful and dignified lady appeared before me, carrying a cup of coffee.

This must be Lady Kamishiro, right?

Shimada Sho guessed what was going on, and to avoid being exposed, he sat down expressionlessly, bracing himself for the other person's gaze.

Lady Kamishiro was about thirty years old. She looked about 70% like Yukine Kamishiro, but her temperament was completely different.

If Yukine Kamishiro is like uncarved ice, then she is like tempered jade, possessing an undeniable majesty within her gentle warmth.

"Xueyin." She put down her teacup and looked at me with a gentle expression. "Mom remembers, we made plans to have lunch together today, didn't we?"

Shimada Sho opened his mouth, trying to come up with an excuse.

“Mr. Thug, just say I went to the library to study.” Yukine Kamishiro’s voice came through.

Shimada Sho understood immediately: "I'm going to the library to study."

Lady Kamishiro raised an eyebrow slightly: "You didn't bring your phone either?"

"I forgot to bring it."

"Not even bodyguards?"

"I...I forgot."

Lady Kamishiro was silent for two seconds, then suddenly smiled.

Her smile was incredibly charming, yet it made Shimada Sho inexplicably nervous.

"Yukine seems to have changed a lot lately." Lady Kamishiro's wise eyes, filled with warm concern, fell directly on Shimada Sho.

He remained calm and answered softly, "People always change."

"Is that so?" Lady Kamishiro stood up and gently stroked the top of his head. "Then Mother hopes that my Yukine can become happier and happier."

Shimada Sho was taken aback by her sudden action.

Just as I was about to react, a prompt suddenly popped up in front of me:

[Connection ended, please log out...]

With this notification, Shimada Sho felt his consciousness being completely extracted.

Suddenly everything went black, and I lost sight of the office.

Chapter 42 Confessions Between Friends

In the classroom of Class 2-A at Sacred Heart Girls' Academy.

Nozomi Sasaki sat behind her desk, propping her chin up with one hand, gazing absently at the sky outside the window.

Her expression kept changing; sometimes she would look distressed, and other times she would smile happily.

Thinking of something, a blush rose on her cheeks again.

"Now that things are like this, I guess we can be considered friends, right?"

She thought to herself, a happy smile appearing on her lips.

The sunlight outside the window feels exceptionally bright today.

Although what happened last night was very unpleasant.

But because a kind boy stood up for her, she was not harmed.

With the young lady's help today, those scoundrels apologized to her.

She felt increasingly lucky.

Perhaps the only problem is that the young lady can sometimes do some really scary things.

For example, today, I took her to find those delinquents and made them apologize to me.

That's Kabukicho, the territory of the yakuza.

Although Kamishiro wanted to vent her anger, doing so was far too dangerous.

If the young lady were to be targeted by bad guys, she would be in danger.

When a commoner like her dies, at most her parents will be sad.

But if something happens to the young lady, that would be a real problem.

"If only Kamishiro-kun hadn't taken this risk for me."

Lost in thought, Nozomi Sasaki murmured unconsciously.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a clear, ethereal voice suddenly rang in his ears, "What?"

"Ah! N-nothing, nothing!" Nozomi Sasaki was startled.

Turning around, he found the young lady herself standing right behind him and immediately became nervous.

Fortunately, the young lady did not pursue the matter further. After sitting down at her table, she calmly asked, "Why did those delinquents apologize to you today?"

"Huh?" Nozomi Sasaki was stunned for a moment.

Wasn't it the young lady who took her there to make them apologize to her?

To vent her anger, the young lady even missed her lunch break.

Now you sit here asking questions that seem to show you know nothing about the truth.

This doesn't make sense, does it?

Nozomi Sasaki instinctively sensed the problem.

My thoughts raced, and the conversations I had with the young lady over the past two days came to mind.

There have been times in the past when I asked questions I already knew the answer to.

For example, ask her who gave her the gift, who it was for, and why she gave her cookies...

Nozomi Sasaki immediately grasped the key point and replied, "Because...because Kamishiro-kun took pity on me and specially helped me..."

"Hmm?" A hint of confusion flashed in the young lady's eyes.

She guessed she might have given the wrong answer, so she changed her tune. "Because Kamishiro-kun hates evil so much?"

"..." Yukine Kamishiro suddenly understood.

Looking at Sasaki Nozomi's adorable appearance, a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.

Sasaki Nozomi was momentarily stunned by his serene expression and reassuring smile.

The last vestiges of shyness vanished, and she lowered her head, whispering, "Because... Kamishiro helped me, because we are... friends?"

She felt that was the reason.

However, when Kamishiro pressed her for an answer directly, she couldn't bring herself to say it.

It would be too embarrassing if a unilateral declaration of friendship were denied.

"Hmm." Unexpectedly, the young lady did not deny it.

He nodded slightly, agreeing with her statement.

Seeing this, Nozomi Sasaki couldn't help but smile with relief.

It turned out that it wasn't just wishful thinking on her part; the young lady really did consider her a friend.

"Can I call you Nozomi?" Yukine Kamishiro suddenly asked.

Nozomi Sasaki immediately nodded, "Of course."

"Yes, you can also call me Yukine."

“Okay.” Nozomi Sasaki nodded, a happy smile on her face.

The change in address signifies a closer relationship; she no longer needs to rack her brains trying to guess what the young lady is thinking.

"Can Nozomi tell me what happened yesterday?"

Yukine Kamishiro spoke again, raising the same question she had just asked.

Sasaki Nozomi was a little confused. Didn't Kamishiro-kun know about it?

"The housekeeper told me what happened yesterday, but I'd like to hear your details."

As if sensing her confusion, Yukine Kamishiro explained calmly.

"I see." Nozomi Sasaki stopped worrying and began to explain, "I went to work a part-time job after school yesterday..."

She started working part-time after school, continued talking about taking the bus in the rain, and then encountered Kirima and his group, where she was rescued by a handsome boy.

Throughout the narration, Yukine Kamishiro remained calm and did not offer any opinions.

But after hearing that a high school boy had cleanly and efficiently dealt with four delinquents, she immediately raised her eyes and asked, "Could you be more specific about the high school boy that Nozomi mentioned?"

"Yeah, he seems to be a boy from a nearby high school, working part-time like me. Although he's very skilled, he's also very kind. When we parted ways..."

Sasaki Nozomi then recounted how, just before they were about to part ways, she wanted to thank him, but he left before she could.

Thinking back to that scene, a hint of shame and annoyance flashed in his eyes.

"He must have realized I'm stupid, that's why he used this method to coax me into buying things..."

"Where do you think he lives?" Yukine Kamishiro seized on the key question.

Nozomi Sasaki didn't think much of it and guessed, resting her chin on her hand, "It should be in the Middle East area, we were on the way there."

“I see…” Yukine Kamishiro seemed to be deep in thought.

Today, I'm also observing Mr. Thug in the form of a possessed spirit.

Focus your gaze on his face and observe every change in his expression.

Those deep eyes, though they were his own.

His domineering words, though spoken in a very pleasant voice, lacked any real authority.

But those behaviors... could they be those of a thug?

Her thoughts raced, and she stood up after listening to Nozomi Sasaki finish explaining everything.

The school bell rang, but instead of returning to her seat, she walked out of the classroom.

The teacher happened to walk in, and the two met face to face.

But seeing that Yukine Kamishiro didn't stop walking, the teacher didn't say a word and silently made way for her.

This is the eldest daughter of the Kamishiro family, a cash cow favored by the school's board of directors.

Although he has the identity of a teacher, he wouldn't dare to show it in front of such students.

After leaving the classroom, Yukine Kamishiro returned to the reception room where her mother was.

Mr. Thug handled the situation very well, and Mom didn't notice anything amiss.

After taking control of her body, she gave a few perfunctory replies and returned to the classroom to ask Sasaki Nozomi the question she cared about most.

Now, she needs to learn even more.

"Young Miss." The butler noticed that Yukine Kamishiro had returned.
