Tokyo: Starting with a fake boyfriend

Looking at the text prompts on the panel, Shiratori Osamu was quite surprised.

Yesterday, in order to untangle the world lines, he worked tirelessly with Minami Yamabuki, outwitting Tomoya Yamabuki, and finally managed to get the reward by spending the night on Yamabuki's sofa.

As it turns out, he only shouted a few loud slogans and spent some time persuading Mr. Dongyun, and he already got the reward.

Is the reward this time rather weak? Far inferior to the [Concentration] talent?

Thinking of this, he immediately brought up his personal panel to check his gains.

[Mental State: A Desperate Counterattack]

[Characteristics: Even in dire straits, persevere to the end!]

[Mental State Effect: Enters "Desperate Counterattack" state, ignoring all pain and fatigue, and unleashing more potential based on the severity of the predicament.]

After reading this introduction, Shiratori Osamu was at a loss for words.

To be honest, this mindset seems pretty impressive.

Ignore all pain and fatigue, and even unleash potential.

Having such a mindset, if used to fight, would be incredibly powerful, essentially putting one into a state of adrenaline surge and transforming into a terrifying upright ape.

While Mr. Dongyun's one-on-one tutoring wasn't as substantial as the 500,000 yen commission that Minami Yamabuki offered, it was still quite considerable.

As for the chance of getting into the University of Tokyo... that reward is pretty unrealistic.

To be honest, everyone has a chance to get into Tsinghua or Peking University; it's just a matter of probability.

"Shiratori-kun, you said you want to apply to the University of Tokyo. Do you want to apply as a humanities student or a science student? Which subject do you want to study?"

After understanding the situation, Shinonome Mizuki, having cleared up her concerns, was completely fired up.

Since Shiratori-kun wasn't trying to use this opportunity to coerce her into doing something she didn't want to do, but rather wanted to turn over a new leaf, as her teacher, she naturally offered her full support.

"Science, specifically electronic information engineering."

Although Shiratori Osamu had no intention of going to university before the turning point in his life, he was a good student in elementary and junior high school, and his goal from the beginning was the University of Tokyo. He had a good understanding of all the disciplines at the University of Tokyo.

The major related to code and programming is electronic intelligence.

"Engineering? Speaking of which, do you have any plans to become a ronin?"

"Ronin? What's that?"

……

At 8:20, Minami Yamabuki arrived at the classroom carrying her schoolbag.

"Good morning, class monitor."

As she appeared, the students greeted her warmly.

Good morning, Sato-san.

Minami Yamabuki responded to everyone's greetings with a smile, making sure not to miss anyone.

As the class monitor, and with her easy-going personality and willingness to help others, she has a good relationship with her classmates.

She greeted everyone as she walked, and soon took a seat.

After putting her schoolbag into the drawer, Minami Yamabuki breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look around. Her gaze inadvertently swept to the corner by the window in the last row.

She couldn't find Shiratori Osamu; instead, she saw a sexy, beautiful, and fashionable woman sitting at his table, chatting and laughing with her friends.

"He still didn't come to school."

Seeing this, Minami Yamabuki sighed inwardly and withdrew her gaze.

For some reason, Shiratori Osamu, who had perfect attendance in both his first and second years of high school, has started missing classes this week.

Although she had asked her teacher beforehand, and the teacher said it was a sick leave, that wasn't the case, since she found Shiratori-san at an internet cafe yesterday.

Shiratori-san wasn't sick at all; he was simply skipping class.

She didn't know the reason, and neither did Shiratori-san's friends; they only knew which internet cafe he was in.

She was too busy last night, and a lot happened, so she forgot about it.

It wasn't until she lay down in bed and started thinking about things before falling asleep that she remembered this incident.

She had planned to ask him after she woke up, but Shiratori-san left before she even woke up, and she didn't even have time to say goodbye.

"Good morning, class monitor. You're a little late today. What happened?"

Just then, a girl wearing glasses came to Minami Yamabuki's seat.

"Good morning, Rie-chan... I accidentally overslept today."

Noticing her friend approaching, Minami Yamabuki smiled and responded to her greeting.

"Is that all? I thought you had some good news, you even changed your hairstyle."

Rie Asada looked at her with amusement, not believing her statement at all.

"Hey...you noticed so quickly?"

Shanchui Nan was shocked when he heard this.

"You usually wear your hair straight, but today you tied it in a ponytail. It's such an obvious difference, it's hard for me not to notice."

Upon seeing her surprise, Rie Asada immediately beamed with joy.

So surprised? Does the class monitor think he's changed very little?

"Uh……"

Faced with her teasing tone, Minami Yamabuki immediately felt shy and embarrassed.

The reason she arrived at school so late today wasn't because she overslept, but because she was checking her hairstyle... and I didn't expect it to be so obvious.

"When a girl suddenly changes her hairstyle, it's usually because she likes a boy... What's going on? Is our class monitor in love?"

Seeing her adorable blush, Rie Asada was immediately seized by a playful impulse. She leaned down, propped herself up on the table, and whispered a question.

It's so cute that the class monitor would become beautiful for the person she likes.

"I don't like any particular boy. It's just that the weather has started to get warmer recently, so I've been tying my hair up."

Upon hearing this, Yamabuki Minami quickly shook his head in denial.

She didn't fall in love with Shiratori-san. The reason she changed her hairstyle was simply because she felt she was too unfashionable and didn't know how to dress up at all.

Moreover, it's cooler to tie your hair up in the middle of summer.

"Who could it be? Kimura-san? Or Kenta Ogasawara from Class 3?"

Although that's what she said, Rie Asada had been in love before, so she wasn't so easily fooled. She could tell at a glance that she had something to hide. After thinking for a few moments, she started reciting names.

Kimura-san is the second-best student in his class. He has liked the class monitor since the beginning of high school. Although he is not a handsome guy, he has a good temperament, a refined and gentle demeanor, and a very nice personality.

As for Kenta Ogasawara from Class 3, he is one of the most popular people in his grade. He is an all-around athlete, has excellent grades, and most importantly, he is very handsome and comes from a good family. Many girls like him.

When she announced the names of the people, Minami Yamabuki didn't say anything, she just kept shaking her head.

"None of them?"

Rie Asada rattled off the names of all the handsome third-year students, but couldn't see any obvious signs of wavering on her face, which made her somewhat discouraged.

Could it be that the class monitor suddenly changed her hairstyle because of the hot weather, rather than because she has fallen for a boy?

Just then, a loud laugh rang out in the classroom:

"Xiu, you've finally come to school."

"Shu?" Upon hearing this name, Rie Asada and Minami Yamabuki exchanged a surprised glance.

The next moment, they turned around and saw Shiratori Osamu's figure.

He was a tall, slender boy with a slightly parted top, short, yellow-black hair, deep-set and rugged features, thick eyebrows and dark eyes.

Even though the boys' school uniforms are very ordinary, just like pretty girls look good in anything, handsome boys are the same.

The same school uniform looked different on him, but he had a unique kind of handsomeness.

"Why is he coming to school again?" Rie Asada couldn't help but frown when she saw him.

"He actually came to school." Minami Yamabuki was pleasantly surprised by his arrival.

Chapter 27 Guilty Heart

Just before class started, Shiratori returned to the classroom.

Before he could even carry his backpack to his seat, his friend stopped him.

Good morning, Zhihui.

Hearing his noisy voice, Shiratori Osamu raised an eyebrow but still responded with a smile.

Tomoki Nakamura is his best friend at school. He has dark skin and a fiery and passionate personality, just like his red hair. He is very loyal and is a member of the basketball club.

"Xiu, nothing happened yesterday, right?"

Nakamura Tomoki walked up to him, grabbed his shoulder, and led him back towards the back door, asking in a low voice as they walked.

What do you mean?

Shiratori Osamu didn't understand why he would ask that question.

“The class monitor asked me about you on Monday, but I didn’t tell her then. Then she came again yesterday, insisting on knowing where you live. She seemed very anxious, so I told her about you at the internet cafe.”

After leading him out of the classroom, Nakamura Tomoaki, feeling guilty, glanced back to make sure no one was following, and then explained the situation.

"So it was you who lured her here." Shiratori Xiu glanced at him sideways.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you, but she's the class monitor, and I softened when she got anxious. Please forgive me!"

Nakamura Tomoki knew he hadn't done anything right, so he released his arm around him and bowed his head to apologize.

Although he was a delinquent, he deeply respected and loved his class monitor.

If the class monitor were only academically excellent and beautiful, that would be fine. The key is that she has a particularly good personality and is very approachable. Even if he is a delinquent, she is willing to treat him gently and will not keep her distance.

That's why the class monitor was so eager to ask him for help, and he inadvertently betrayed his friend.

"Don't do that again next time." Shiratori Shu wasn't angry at all, since what happened yesterday was a good thing for him, but seeing his attitude, he still made a request.

"receive."

Nakamura Tomoki knew he was wrong, which is why he came to apologize, and nodded in agreement.

After finishing this, they returned to the classroom because it was almost time for class.

Shiratori Osamu carried his schoolbag to his seat, where a blonde bombshell was sitting on his desk.

Wearing the same JK school uniform, she looked stunning because of her heavy makeup, elaborate hairstyle, large round earrings, manicured nails, exceptionally long eyelashes, and the deliberately shortened skirt.

What's most eye-catching are her beautiful legs, wrapped in ultra-thin black stockings, which are truly captivating.

Good morning, Xiu-kun.

As he approached, Yuki Seto, who was sitting on the table, turned to the side and waved to him.

She was wearing a summer short-sleeved uniform, and a fluffy black hair tie was wrapped around her slender wrist. She was just waving to say hello, but because of this little accessory, she looked very playful, cute and eye-catching.

Good morning, Yuki.

In response to her greeting, Shiratori Osamu also responded.

Not only was she greeting people, but the two glamorous girls who had been chatting with Yuki Seto earlier did the same.

Birds of a feather flock together... Although he was a perennial bottom of the class, Shiratori Osamu still had a few good friends at school.

Walking to his seat, Shiratori Shu took off his shoulder bag, put it in the drawer, and sat down.

"Xiu-jun, how about we go sing karaoke together after school today?"

As he sat down, Yuki Seto remained seated at his table and began discussing the day's plans.

Before today's classes even started, she was already thinking about what to do after school.

For hot girls, there are only a few things to do after school: karaoke, arcades, shopping malls, bubble tea, manicures, haircuts, and wandering around taking beautiful photos.

As for studying, which hot girl would want to study?

"I have things to do after school." Shiratori Osamu shook his head, not very interested in this.
