There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

Wu Geng thought that Li Nian hated Sagami like an insect and didn't understand how these two could be talking to each other. Li Nian then mentioned to her that Sagami had apologized to him that day.

Gogen was quite surprised by this and had a new respect for Sagami. He looked at her and thought, "This woman doesn't seem so hopeless."

Although it was a bit stiff, Li Nian's action still achieved its purpose and accurately conveyed his thoughts.

At this time, many people were discussing Li Nian's actions just now. As expected, most people thought that Li Nian was trying to show that she was not a threat.

——"What does this strange greeting from the Sobu High School's Takenami Tsuyoshi mean?"

——"Like a statement of harmlessness?"

——"It's so funny. Which idiot dares to think he is harmless now? I didn't believe it before, but now I feel that those dangerous rumors are becoming more and more true."

——"But it's true that all the trouble was defensive behavior. The exaggerated muscles he built during the summer vacation look scary, but after becoming stronger in many ways, this man obviously has no interest in bullying anyone. You've seen his character on weekdays. He's a very easy-going person. He was only messed with because others were blind and provoked him. What's the relationship between him and Gogen? Sagami deserves it for being so stupid as to cause trouble for someone else's girlfriend and anger her."

——"Speaking of Sagami...what was that deadly cold conversation just now about? How dare she say hello to Li Nian, and Li Nian said hello back? When did these two people reconcile?"

Caijia, who was sitting behind Li Nian, was also very curious about the changes reflected in the incident that just happened, and took the initiative to ask Li Nian: "Did Li Nian and Xiaonan reconcile? It's really surprising."

Li Nian told Wu the real reason, but changed his words when talking to Caijia.

"Sagami-san is very generous and doesn't care about my offense. It's just a simple reconciliation." Li Nian smiled harmlessly: "We are all dear classmates. Why should we hurt the harmony over such a small matter?"

His voice was not loud, but not small either, and it was clear enough for the students who were paying attention to the situation here.

——"Are you really reconciled?"

——"I heard from Yuko that Sagami took the initiative to apologize to Li Nian."

——"Is this true? That Sagami? Did he change his gender?"

——"It seems to be true, so it's really okay? Li Nian doesn't seem like the type who would care about such things."

——"Is this matter really over? That's good."

Everyone understood the fact that Li Nian had really made peace with Sagami.

Miura Yumiko frowned: "That guy just let Sagami go like that?"

"That's good, Yumiko." Ebina stood beside her with a gentle smile: "Classmate Li Nian is right, classmates should get along harmoniously."

"Boring." Miura sneered, lost interest and continued to play with his phone.

Listening to Li Nian's speech which was really giving her enough face, Sagami looked at Li Nian with gratitude. She was wrong to bully Gogen at the beginning, and she was [defeated] by Li Nian on the spot, becoming the [loser]. As a result, she was subjected to more cold sarcasm in the class, and her reputation was in jeopardy. She wanted to admit her mistake to everyone by chatting with Li Nian and expressing that she had reconciled with the person involved. She was a little surprised that Li Nian was so cooperative, and a few words completely helped her out of the predicament.

"Student Li Nian... is he such a talkative person?" Yuigahama was chatting with Hikigaya before, and now she was staring at Li Nian blankly, as if she had gotten to know Li Nian all over again. She could feel that the atmosphere in the room had become much calmer, and the disturbance that had arisen between Li Nian and Sagami had finally been resolved.

"That's why they say JK brains are not smart enough." Hikigaya felt that Yuigahama was really talking nonsense, and his tone showed his sincere admiration for Li Nian: "Don't you realize that people are much more clear-headed than us? Li Nian acts like a dirty adult. He has long mastered the advanced social skills of lying with open eyes and taking advantage of the situation. Otherwise, why do you think he is so popular with girls? Look at who he can't talk to?"

"Is that so?" Yuigahama heard it and realized that it seemed to be the case. She was a step slower to react and realized that she was being scolded. She said dissatisfiedly: "No! I'm not stupid!"

"Hikigaya is right." It was Hayama who said this as he moved closer to them.

Yuigahama was immediately devastated and almost cried: "Does Hayato also think I'm an idiot?!"

"No, no, I'm talking about classmate Li Nian." Ye Shan smiled gently and looked at Li Nian: "He is really a very easy-to-talk-to person."

Ye Shan knew that Li Nian would make this kind of effort to "repair the atmosphere" because she probably listened to some of his previous words.

"Yeah! That person is very easy to talk to!" Yuigahama nodded vigorously.

Hikigaya, who had many interactions with the top student in the class, Hayama, at various activities of the Service Club, looked at him, but understood that Hayama was referring to something else... Precisely because of those interactions, Hikigaya actually disliked Hayama's character. He sneered at this time: "Indeed, compared to the scheming fake flatterer, the guy who does his own thing is really cool, so even a guy like me would find it comfortable to get along with that person, Hayama, you should learn from him."

Hikigaya's words were meant to be sarcastic, but Ye Shan could tell. He just smiled and said frankly, "Well, I envy Li Nian, too."

By showing your true self without a care in the world, you can naturally attract others to you - perhaps that is the most correct attitude for a man.

Although she didn't understand the inner meaning of the two people's words, Yuigahama, who still agreed with the term "going her own way", also had some feelings of her own: "Yes, I envy Li Nian, too. I want to say what I want to say and do what I want to do. I also know that it looks simple but is actually difficult to do. I have always wanted to learn it."

"Don't give up, keep trying, you will learn it in your next life."

"Does that mean I'll never be able to learn it no matter how hard I try in this lifetime?! Xiaoqi, you're going too far!"

"Are you doing this on purpose to save Sagami's face?" Kato thought that Li Nian was doing this on purpose to show that she and Sagami had forgotten their grudges. He praised, "Li Nian, you are so gentle."

Although Li Nian managed to accomplish this by taking advantage of the situation to give Sagami face and prevent her from being embarrassed in front of others because of the previous conflicts, it was actually Sagami who took the initiative to say hello, and there was not much subjective initiative on Li Nian's part.

Li Nian was too lazy to explain: "Yes, yes, I am a super-Asshole Japanese high school boy. This is exactly what I have been working hard to make everyone clearly understand about my harmless nature."

Unlike the reactions aroused by all parties, Li Nian, who made this eye-catching move, was actually the most unintentional one. All the motives can be summed up in four words: it was just a whim.

"You are really harmless. You are about to evolve into a popular person, right? Now you are indeed a celebrity in the class. It can be said that you have made a great success in your high school debut. Congratulations on becoming an eye-catching ornamental animal like a gorilla in a zoo."

"I can tell that my popularity has made Gogen, who has never had any friends since childhood, very jealous."

Li Nian said sarcastically. He thought he could break down the girl's defense to some extent, but she showed a look of disdain.

"Hmph, it doesn't hurt. I am not the same person I was before!"

Li Nian was stunned: "I'm really curious about where you got the confidence to say such things."

"Having no friends is a thing of the past!" Wu Geng seemed a little relieved when talking about this: "I met a lot of like-minded people at the offline gathering of otakus organized by the SNS group before!"

I never expected that Wu Geng could make friends, let alone through offline gatherings, Li Nian wondered.

"…Although I remember you saying this, I thought you were the type who wouldn't say a word when thrown into a crowd of strangers. Can you really strike up a conversation with strangers without me around?"

Wu Geng's expression froze, his eyes wandering: "Although, although there were some unpleasant incidents..."

It seems that what Li Nian said came true. The situation of the offline gathering did not exceed his expectations.

This could also give Wu Geng a reason to make friends. Li Nian could also think: "...it seems that there are kind people who take the initiative to take care of the lonely ones."

"..."Wu Geng's deflated expression further confirmed Li Nian's speculation about subsequent developments.

"Anyway, you really did get to know some people, right? No matter what, you've made progress and it's worth encouragement." Li Nian reached out and patted Wu Geng's head.

Wu Geng slapped his hand away in dissatisfaction.

Kato was simply happy for Gogen: "Did you make new friends, Gogen-san? That's great. Who are they?"

"She is a very caring older sister, and also the organizer of offline gatherings." When talking about this person, Wu Geng showed a rare gentle smile.

"After taking care of social phobia, it seems that she is the one." Li Nian asked: "What else?"

Speaking of the remaining people, Wu Geng's face darkened, and he looked at Li Nian meaningfully: "There is also an arrogant woman who is more irritating than you, and her brother."

"Wow, I knew that only someone who can quarrel with you is worthy of being your friend." Li Nian said with a smile: "But there is one thing I don't agree with. Is she really more likely to make you angry than me?"

"…Maybe not." Wu Geng's eyes were cold.

"That's what I said." Li Nian put away his smile and said seriously, "I was just kidding... It's a good thing that you can make friends, Wu Geng. Friends with similar interests are generally very valuable. You should cherish them, but don't really scold them away. Not everyone is as generous as me, and the boat of friendship can capsize at any time."

Before Gogen could say anything, Kato spoke up to defend her: "I don't think you need to worry. I know Gogen-san is not really ignorant of her own limits. She is a very reasonable person."

As he spoke, he smiled at Gogen. This Kato Megumi classmate always speaks directly. Like Li Nian, Gogen can't stand her direct praise and gentle eyes. She will feel ashamed because she feels that she is not so smart. But shame is a temporary thing, and being stubborn is a lifelong thing. Gogen's eyes wandered, but he still said, "Kato classmate has good taste."

Wu Geng always felt like a parent watching his child finally make friends, so he took the initiative to change the subject: "Speaking of which, my masterpiece is almost finished. Mr. Li, just keep your eyes open. This time I will definitely make you impressed by its level of completion."

Wu Geng's new book has been posted online. This hardworking girl wrote it without sleep or food. Li Nian also admires her. She probably wrote it at home during class, after class, and during club activities. She and Li Nian completed the outline of her new book and finalized the framework. It is expected that there will be hundreds of thousands of characters. At this speed, it is not surprising to Li Nian that it will be completed in the near future.

Li Nian, who helped her finalize the outline, did not intend to influence her during the actual writing process. The fifth update was serialized, that is, the latest progress was updated on the website platform in real time, but Li Nian had never read it. That is to say, he decided to come back to appreciate it after she finished, and help review and revise it. The fifth update was to remind him that this day was coming.

Li Nian nodded. "Okay, print it out when the time comes. Everyone in the club should prepare a copy. I can't be the only one doing the drug testing. We have to involve all the members. Be prepared to be scolded. Don't throw the dictionary at me just because I say a few words to you."

At this point, Wu Geng no longer cares about this level of irony. She has received a lot of reviews during the period of serialization on the online platform. She is no longer the person who would be easily defeated by a few sharp comments from Yukinoshita: "Then you have to trouble Teacher Muzi to read it carefully a hundred times. Even if you are poisoned and unconscious, you have to finish it. You have to read it carefully, slowly and intensively. I am waiting for you to give me valuable suggestions for revisions."

"That sounds like torture."

"Gogen-san's novel is almost finished... I'm so looking forward to it." Kato was simply looking forward to seeing Gogen's work and cast a hopeful look at him.

Ever since reading Li Nian's "debut work" which was already highly completed before the revision, Kato was moved to tears (not an exaggeration), and has been hooked on light novels. After that, he also read Kasumigaoka-senpai's "Love Metronome" series, and was recommended many excellent works by Amaki. Now he has developed a strong interest in reading novels.

Kato was expecting her to produce a work that would move her, so Gogen suddenly felt pressured. She really didn't want to disappoint Kato, so she couldn't help but say a few words to lower her expectations: "I've told you in advance that my work may not be as good as that of a professional author, and I may disappoint you, Kato..."

Li Nian said: "Compared to me and Senior Kasumigaoka, she will definitely be a little bit weaker."

"..." Wu Geng glared at him unhappily.

Li Nian said: "But you won't disappoint Kato. Be more confident. After all, I helped write your outline. It will be difficult for you to mess up."

Chapter 375 Hesitation before entering the next stage

"Yes, yes, I know you want to emphasize how great you are."

"I'm just telling the truth." Li Nian's expression was quite serious. "As for the plot you wrote according to the outline, it's your ability if you can get it out of hand. As long as you stick to the outline and don't mess around, the story you write will be good. Of course, maybe in my eyes, Amaki's eyes, Kasumigaoka's eyes - and even in your own eyes, that story may not be excellent, but Kato is not as picky as us."

Li Nian had written an outline of nearly tens of thousands of words for his own book. When Wu Geng discussed the outline of the book with him, they went through the same process of repeated revisions, and completed a similar extremely detailed outline. Following that plot, Li Nian was sure that Wu Geng could write a "fairly good" story.

Kato is a new reader who has just started reading. Unlike old bookworms like Li Nian and An Yi, he is more picky about books. Li Nian and others are very strict in choosing books. They cannot finish reading any work that they don't like. They have their own special pet peeve. If they accidentally encounter these pet peeve during the reading process, their impression of the book will be greatly reduced. They have high requirements for the author's writing style.

Kato is different. This relatively innocent child does not have such picky tastes. As long as the story itself is okay and there is nothing particularly incongruous, she should be able to enjoy watching it.

The structure of Wu Geng's book has been determined by the outline, the logic of the introduction, development, turning point and conclusion has been sorted out, and the twists and turns of the plot have been determined. Li Nian has a rough expectation of what the reader's experience will be like, and she has confidence in saying that Kato will not be disappointed after reading Wu Geng's completed story.

"Is that so?" Kato didn't really understand the intricacies of this and felt confused when he was used as a standard.

"...That's right." Wu Geng was stunned. After hearing what Li Nian said, he understood what was going on. He felt relieved, but at the same time, he felt underestimated. "But your statement, as if you are sure that I can only write a decent story at best, is really infuriating. How come you seem to have predicted my level?"

"My dear, please be more confident. Remove the "as if" and you can completely believe that I have accurately calculated your level."

Unlike before when she could not take Li Nian's direct sarcasm to Wu Geng seriously, she was really hurt by Li Nian's words at this moment and got angry: "Humph, anyway, I am not a professional player like you who passed the Bunko Award and obtained the qualification for publishing, right? You think I have succeeded after passing Kato-san's level."

The girl's voice was a little trembling, and it rarely revealed a hint of grievance. Li Nian keenly noticed this and immediately frowned.

Oh, did I say something wrong? Is my defense really broken?

Wu Geng's defense breakdown was not actually very obvious. It was just a slight tremor in his voice and a low mood. Li Nian noticed it because of her keen senses. Kato was watching Wu Geng intently and caught the change. He immediately realized Wu Geng's mood, frowned, and rarely got angry. He immediately blamed Li Nian.

"Student Li Nian, you are so bad! You just said that we should pay attention to the attitude when getting along with friends. How come you made the same mistake?"

"Ah, ah? Sorry? Did I say the wrong thing?" Li Nian apologized immediately, but he was also a little confused. He felt that he had behaved properly and didn't know how this girl was really hurt.

Gogen also felt his mood getting low. The girl was always strong-willed and was going to cover it up immediately and not take it seriously. It would have been fine if Kato didn't say anything. But once he said it, Gogen couldn't joke about it anymore. He felt a little embarrassed at this moment: "It's okay, it's just a small matter, I don't care... Yeah, I don't care! This guy has been talking nonsense for a long time, why should I care. Hehehe... hehe..."

Gogen could have really pretended that he didn't care, but now that Kato pointed it out, he cared even more.

The more she thought about it, the more depressed she felt.

Wu Geng had finally finished his work and proudly mentioned it to Li Nian, with the mentality of seeking credit. However, this guy never said a single good word, saying things like "testing poison", "just barely acceptable", and "not bad". It didn't seem like he had any expectations of himself in his words. So what was that?

...No, Wu Geng told herself in her heart that it didn't matter if she was not expected by others. This was how she had been living all along. She had never been expected by others. That was because she was not strong enough and could not come up with a story that people would find interesting. It was natural that she was not expected by others.

When writing the book at hand, Wu Geng had actually already made plans for the worst, and made up her mind to treat any cold words from anyone as nothing. She knew that if she wanted to retaliate against those who looked down on her, she had to show them results that would win their approval. However, Li Nian said that she could only achieve a passing level, and this was a fact, which was better than the many "disgusting" comments in the past. Instead, it was Li Nian's recognition of her growth... Sensible girls have always understood these truths, and they understand them deeply... Although she understood them deeply, Li Nian's attitude of not having expectations of her made her feel particularly concerned for some reason, and therefore particularly uncomfortable.

Thinking about this kind of thing, Wu Geng, who said he didn't care, frowned and pouted, his expression showing obvious discomfort.

Kato, who was always gentle, immediately reminded someone in a stern tone: "Student Li Nian?"

The last time she saw Gogen with that rare expression was when her work was criticized by Yukinoshita and she hid upstairs. Only then did Li Nian realize that she had really gone too far.

"No, Gogen, I was wrong, I was really wrong, Red Bean Paste Private Marseille!"

Although I don’t know where I went wrong.

But in short, it is definitely right to admit defeat. Li Nian sincerely put his palms together and bowed his head to Wu Geng, as if he was worshiping a Buddha.

But the more Kato cared and worried, and the more Li Nian apologized, the more uncomfortable Wu Geng felt. He cursed impatiently, "Enough! I said it's okay, it's okay!"

As he said this, he turned his face away and didn't dare to look at these two people anymore.

Li Nian kept his head down and looked up to observe Wu Geng: "But you don't look fine at all..."

"Tsk." Wu Geng knew that she had failed to hide her feelings. She smacked her lips and finally decided to complain directly to Li Nian. She turned around and angrily scolded, "It's all because of you, you bastard, who's too mean. I've worked so hard for so long and am finally about to finish writing my book, and you can't even get a single good word from me?"

Li Nian suddenly realized where he was wrong: "Oh, then I am indeed guilty of a heinous crime and deserve death. How about I give you, Master Wu Geng, a hammer in the dictionary this time?"

"Okay!" Wu Gengzhen picked up the thick dictionary next to him and smashed it hard at Li Nian's lowered head... He looked fierce, but he actually retracted his force in time, and it finally hit the back of Li Nian's head lightly.

"Ouch!" Li Nian screamed strangely, and touched his head as if he was really hurt, complaining: "It hurts, it hurts, is it really that serious? Are you trying to murder me?"

"Your acting is really exaggerated." Wu Geng said unhappily, "Okay, we're even now."

Li Nian then raised his head, sat up straight, looked at Wu Geng with a gentle expression, and suddenly said, "That's right, you've been busy for so long, I should first congratulate you on completing a masterpiece."

"It's too late to say it now. You don't know how to mend the fence after you've let the sheep run away, it sounds like you don't have any sincerity at all." Wu Geng cursed, but finally smiled: "Let me make it clear first, there's no need to say such polite words after you have really read my story. I still hope that you can really come up with some constructive suggestions to improve my great work."

Seeing Wu Geng finally smile, Li Nian knew that his belated congratulations were still useful. He was forgiven by Wu Geng, and he breathed a sigh of relief. When he was told not to say polite words, he certainly had no intention of doing so. He smiled and said, "Of course, do I look like the kind of person who would hold back when I need to? If you really cry from being scolded, I'll say it, too."

"I never thought you were that kind of person. Also, I can't cry. When have I ever cried?"

"Really? Didn't Yukinoshita scold you and make you cry before?"
