Chapter 491 The Truth
Ryuen was speechless, but Kiryuin's words did give him a wake-up call. The person who planned this incident must be a third-year student. If he didn't want to expose himself and be suspected by his classmates like Kiryuin, he would have to include some of his own information in the news he was spreading.

People are selfish, especially when it comes to their own secrets. They won't easily reveal them. So, Long Yuan bets that he won't reveal his real secrets, but will instead fabricate some false information. Of course, information that's too outrageous won't work, since that would attract too much attention. So, the target is those seemingly ordinary but false secrets.

The person these messages point to is most likely the one spreading the information behind the scenes.

Longyuan then understood why the senior student from the mountain school had so easily agreed to clear the name of the senior student from the Ghost Dragon Academy; in reality, she was just using the senior student from the Ghost Dragon Academy as a shield.

If it were anyone else, they would probably have already been retaliated against by the other third-year students, and they wouldn't have the mind to come and complain to Ryuen like Kiryuin did.

"So, senior, stop pretending. You know I didn't cause this situation at all. You just want to take your anger out on me."

Kiryuin blinked.

"Okay, I understand. I'll handle this as soon as possible, okay?"

Long Yuan looked at the ripples in the water glass and finally decided to finish the job quickly.

Kiryuin blinked again. The current situation was good enough for her, and she had achieved her goal of finding Ryuen, plus an unexpected bonus.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, junior. If you do a good job, I won't mind giving you the second button when we graduate."

Kiryuin was in a much better mood and even joked with Ryuen, but Ryuen had no intention of joking at all.

As soon as Guilongyuan left, Longyuan's eyes darkened. The conventional method was effective, but too slow. They really needed to start with the scattered information. By the time they filtered out the information, everyone would have already graduated.

Longyuan knew there was another shortcut.

He made a call, but no one answered after a long time. Long Yuan was not surprised and tried twice more.

Finally, the call went through.

"Junior, girls don't like guys who are persistent and clingy."

"Hehe, I have quite a few girls who like me, so I don't need you, senior."

"You're just being presumptuous, junior from Longyuan. If you harass me again, I'll block you."

"Senior Shan, why didn't you block me right after we met? Oh, it's not that you've fallen for me, haha, just kidding. Senior Shan, you wouldn't dare block me, would you?"

Yamanaka remained silent on the other end of the phone. After their first meeting, Yamanaka didn't want to see Ryuen again, but as Ryuen said, she didn't dare to block him. She didn't dare to gamble, and she was also leaving herself a way out.

“You knew I would call you, Senior from the mountain school. You’re very smart. If things weren’t a bit urgent, I would have kept you hanging for a while longer.”

"Hmph, scumbag!"

"Many people say that, so I'm inviting you again, senior from the mountain school, to have coffee together."

"Is it going to be coffee from a vending machine again?"

"of course not."

Half an hour later, the two met at Tachibana Akane's coffee shop. Yamazaka was tall, so Ryuen spotted her immediately.

"Making girls wait for you, junior from Longyuan, that's really going too far."

"I've always been like this, and actually, there are even more outrageous things I do. Would you like to see them, senior?"

Longyuan sat down opposite the senior student from the mountain school without any hesitation. The senior student, who had arrived earlier, had already ordered coffee.

The waitress who served the coffee was Tachibana Akane, who was wearing a uniform. When she saw that Ryuen had met up with another girl she didn't know for coffee, Tachibana Akane secretly pinched Ryuen's waist. Although it didn't hurt, the meaning was very clear.

Because Yamanaka's attention was focused on Ryuen's face, he didn't notice Tachibana Akane's subtle movements. "Tell me about your conditions, Senpai."

"Graduated from Class A".

"That's really easy to understand. I can agree to that, but I need you to provide a list of everyone involved in this incident."

The man in the mountains turned deathly pale: "Impossible, I only know one."

"Senior Yamazaki, the person you know, it wouldn't be Senior Nagasaki, would it?"

Yamanaka opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything. She didn't understand how Ryuen knew, and from Ryuen's words, she knew that besides Nagasaki, there were other people involved, but Yamanaka only knew about Nagasaki from beginning to end.

"It seems, senior, you're only realizing now that you were simply used. Don't be curious why I know the name Nagasaki, because he's the one who gave me your contact information. You've been abandoned, senior Yamazaka."

Nagasaki-senpai is the short-haired senior who came to see Ryuen at the karaoke bar. Ryuen felt there was something wrong with him at the time, but she never expected that he would actually be one of the masterminds behind the scenes.

It's a pity they weren't united enough. Everyone had their own selfish motives and wanted to leave themselves a way out, which is why they all went to Longyuan without prior arrangement.

The senior student from the mountain school could only manage a bitter smile, but her expression was even more unsightly than if she were crying.

"It seems I'm destined not to graduate from Class A."

The senior student from the mountain school fell into despair.

Ryuen had no intention of offering any help. He had only met her to confirm whether Nagasaki was the mastermind behind it all. Now that it was confirmed, there was no point in continuing in the mountains.

All the truths I wanted to know were in Nagasaki.

Of course, Ryuen did not think that Nagasaki was the biggest mastermind; at most, he could only be one of the masterminds. Otherwise, he would not have agreed to Ryuen's request to secure a way out for himself.

Having lost her bargaining chips, the senior student from the mountain school naturally lost the right to negotiate with Longyuan and could only leave in a daze.

"You've bullied someone again?"

Tachibana Akane walked up behind Ryuen and pressed her fists against Ryuen's temples.

"Of course, I love bullying people the most."

Ryuen hugged Tachibana Akane's waist, nuzzled against her neck, and secretly played dirty tricks with his hands.

Akane ran away with a flushed face. They were still in the store; if anyone else saw them, they'd be in big trouble.

Feeling relaxed, Ryuen looked up and saw Nagasaki-senpai not far away. He looked somewhat surprised, probably because he had seen her playing around with Tachibana Akane earlier.

After exchanging glances, the two understood each other perfectly.

It's the same spot, only the person opposite Ryuen has become Nagasaki.

"Who are you and Akane-senpai?"

"Oh? Nagasaki-senpai, are you more interested in my gossip than your own future?"

Overwhelmed by Ryuen's imposing presence, Nagasaki's expression turned ugly.

"Junior Longyuan, do you think I have everything you want to know? Shouldn't you show me some respect?"

Long Yuan crossed his legs: "Respect? Please, senior, don't you know your place yet? You're begging me, not negotiating with me!"
