Tokyo Heart Thief's Daily Life

"Senior, you promised me a long time ago, but you've been so busy lately that you keep putting it off~! I've already made an appointment with Xiao Deng today, and we absolutely have to go together! It's with that guy who's said to be from Xiao Deng's old band, called [Crychic]!"

......Click~!

Aine just said the name of the band C.

Ms. Shoko Toyokawa, who had been practicing the piano steadily, suddenly had a trembling hand and played a wrong note.

...This made Aine speechless as well, and she looked at her with a gloomy face:

"Well... Xiangzi-chan? Since you guys can't let go of the [Crychic] thing, why don't you come with us?"

"Xiao Deng, I'm no longer angry with you. You can talk about anything openly. With Senior Luo Zhen here, no matter how angry your former teammate is, we will protect you..."

Toyokawa Shoko: "No need. ... I'm leaving early today. I wish you happiness."

Miss Xiangzi stood up as stiffly as ever, packed her bag as quickly as if she was clocking out from work, bowed to her classmates, and walked out of the classroom.

Although this series of reactions was far from being a quarrel, it still scared the small fish Pochi, whose health limit was extremely low, into having its plasma membrane separated.

Luo Zhen had no choice but to hold Pochi, who looked very gritty, in his arms and used sandpaper to smooth her face again while saying:

"Let's not push her for now. Xiangzi has a lot of pride, and there are a lot of hidden secrets about what happened back then... I've actually been tutoring at another Crychic member's house these past two weeks. Xiangzi introduced me to her."

Aine: "Huh?! This is the first time I've heard of this! Which one of them is it from that band?...Oh, I know! It's the girl in the photo that Xiao Deng showed me. She's the eldest daughter of the Wakaba family, right?!"

As expected, the Wakaba family is very famous, and a fashionable girl like Aine can be recognized at a glance.

By taking advantage of Wakaba Mu's topic, Luo Zhen successfully diverted Aine's attention, causing the noisy child to excitedly ask about gossip.

Since Aine was so attached to him, Luo Zhen naturally agreed to her and decided to go with her and Xiao Deng.

Xiao Deng is a member of the astronomy club and is always in the classroom over there after school.

Aiyin then waved to Luo Zhen happily, agreed to meet at the school gate, and went to look for Xiao Deng.

Luo Zhen said goodbye to Pochi and the others, and was the last one to leave the light music club classroom, locking the door.

......Just when he arrived at the school gate.

"--senior!"

Miss Fengchuan from the Luo Zhen family suddenly ran towards him.

He didn't have time to ask yet.

Xiangzi rushed forward like a whirlwind and slammed into his arms!

"Senior! ...Please don't ask anything, just hold me tight!"

...Xiangzi's voice was trembling.

As if avoiding some evil spirit, she prayed to him hard.

Luo Zhen immediately calmed down and hugged her as she said.

During the busy school hours, all the students coming in and out saw this scene.

In particular, a girl who chased Xiangzi to the school gate also saw this ambiguous scene at the gate:

"Shoko-chan! Why are you running away...ah! (? ? ?? )"

Perhaps the scene of Xiangzi hugging the male senior was too shocking, the girl screamed on the spot and subconsciously turned around and covered her eyes.

The girl was wearing a navy blue sailor uniform, which looked quite classic.

Her long chestnut hair that flows down her back is also very beautiful, creating a mature style that is different from that of ordinary JKs. She is a super beautiful girl with a very high score.

Luo Zhen searched his mind for 0.005 seconds and immediately found the records in his [Beauty Kanshi Eye EX] database:

"Isn't this the wealthy JK who lives in the penthouse... Hmm? Xiangzi, are you acquainted with her?"

"..."

Xiangzi didn't say anything, but just hugged Luo Zhen tighter.

196. Do you want to join us? (4k)

[July: Front-row reminder. The official confirmed kanji for Nagasaki Sushi is Nagasaki Soshi. However, I don't think "Shuangshi" feels very good, and I prefer Soshi. Therefore, unless something unexpected happens, this book will be called Soshi from now on. I hope everyone understands ('?ω?｀)]

-------------------------------------

...Nagasaki Suyo, 16 years old, is a student.

She attends the famous "Tsuki no Mori Girls' Academy".

This is a school that attracts a large number of rich daughters and daughters of bigwigs in business and politics.

Nagasaki Suyo is one of the best.

Because she speaks softly and appropriately, and has a gentle and friendly personality, she is trusted by teachers and students at school.

After she was promoted to high school, she was actually called "Onee-sama" by her junior high school classmates...I won't go into that here.

In short.

This perfect young lady who is so dazzling and has almost no flaws in the eyes of outsiders also has her own little troubles.

This Monday made countless suffering workers angry.

During the lunch break at noon, Miss Nagasaki found a classmate with whom she had a good relationship...Wakaba Mutsu.

She accompanied Mu from the gardening department and watched her water the cucumbers planted in the yard.

During this process, Nagasaki Suyo seemingly inadvertently broke into the topic:

"Shoko-chan, it turns out you transferred to Shujin Academy."

"...!"

Ruoye Mu's shoulders shrank nervously, and the shower head in his hand stopped spraying.

Seeing her reaction, Nagasaki Suyo confirmed that she had known about it all along.

But she did not blame her good friend for keeping it a secret from her. Instead, she took the initiative to comfort him in a sweet voice:

"After all, Xiaomu and Xiangzi are childhood sweethearts, so of course he would know~. And Xiangzi must have asked you to keep it a secret, so you didn't tell me, right? Xiaomu is really a good boy who cares about his friends."

"......what......"

Ruoye Mu opened his mouth, but only a dry sound came out.

Her stiff little head worked hard, thinking about how to remedy the situation.

Toyokawa Shoko did ask her to keep it a secret and not tell anyone where she was transferring to or where she was going to move.

But Nagasaki Suyo is the one who should know the least.

She is also a member of the band [Crychic] and serves as its bassist.

Among all the former members of Group C, she was the one who most wanted to reunite with everyone and re-form the band. She had been instilling this idea into Wakaba Mu for the past six months.

Knowing that he was not good at speaking, Wakaba Mu finally chose to keep his mouth shut and say nothing.

Nagasaki Suyo continued to comfort:

"Don't worry, Xiao Mu, I won't do anything strange. It's just that there must be a misunderstanding between us and Xiangzi... I just want to clear up this misunderstanding."

"Then, of course, we'll be together again. I'll also invite you back to Crychic then. Until then, wait for me, okay~?"

"..."

Su Shi expresses beautiful wishes...or rather, [desires].

Ruo Ye Mu was powerless to do anything about it. He could neither refuse her nor agree with her.

"(Teacher Luo Zhen... please, help Xiangzi...)"

-------------------------------------

Nagasaki Suyo deliberately asked for leave one class early and left early, waiting at the gate of Shujin Academy.

Her school uniform was very conspicuous, and passersby would take a few extra glances, which made her quite nervous.

(Did I come too early?...)

Miss Nagasaki thought as she looked at the empty school gate.

She had never done anything so outrageous before, and coming to another school to block people was something she had never imagined.

She also had a lot of delusions.

I don’t know how Xiangzi will react when he sees me.

(...If she runs away, how far should I chase her?)

(People from other schools are definitely not allowed to enter the school, so I should wait until Xiangzi-chan leaves the school before talking to her... What if she is with her friends? It would be bad to interfere with her life...)

"This classmate...this classmate from Tsuki no Mori?"

“—Ah, yes!”

Su Shi, who was absent from duty, was called several times before he suddenly came to his senses.

Only then did she realize that a very pretty female teacher had already noticed her.

Luo Zhen's homeroom teacher, the great Mr. Kawakami, asked with concern:

"You're a student of Tsuki no Mori, right? Why are you in front of our school? What's going on?"

"Ah, yes... I'm here to wait for a friend..."

Miss Nagasaki clutched her schoolbag nervously and spoke hesitantly.

Teacher Kawakami scratched his head, realizing that she was hiding something.

Tsukinomori's school closing time is the same as Shujin's, so she had to take leave early to wait for people.

Teacher Kawakami didn't want to expose the little girl directly, so he kindly said:

"It's not good to stand at the school gate, how about I take you inside? What's the name of the friend you're looking for? Which class is he in?"

"Ah...really, really, that's not necessary! Teacher, please don't bother..."

Miss Nagasaki was very embarrassed and began to back off.

She made a lot of preparations, including checking the route from Tsuki no Mori to Shujin and the school dismissal times, before she finally mustered up the courage to ambush someone.

But when an adult spoke to her, she couldn't casually reveal Toyokawa Shoko's personal information, and she felt completely awkward.

So that's it.

During this troublesome moment, another girl in school uniform came over from outside the school:

"Teacher, please let her stay here. School will be over soon, and she'll be fine."

Kawakami: "Huh? Yeah, that's true... But who are you, classmate? Which class are you from?"

Luo Zhen's homeroom teacher looked suspicious, wondering why this student was hanging around outside the school during class time.

......So that's it.

Nagasaki Suyo smelled a faint scent of tobacco.

The smell is not pungent.

It even has the feeling of incense that Nagasaki Suyo likes, the kind of fragrance that makes people feel calm and soothed.

The student smiled and said, "Teacher, you forgot. I'm an exchange student from Kobe, and my name is Ren Amamiya. I can choose my own school hours, so I'm off campus."

Kawakami: "...Ahh~! Hmm, I remember now. It's Amamiya-san, right? I'm sorry I have such a bad memory~"

Teacher Kawakami suddenly realized and couldn't help yawning.

She was half asleep, and seemed to be affected by the sweet smell of tobacco:

"Sorry, I've been working overtime on my own business lately and haven't gotten enough sleep... Well, since Amamiya-san said so, you guys can do whatever you want..."

The black-haired girl named Amamiya Ren: "Yeah. Mr. Kawakami, you're so tired, it's better to go to the infirmary and get some sleep."

The handsome female student waved goodbye to her teacher, and naturally rescued Nagasaki Suyo from the predicament.

This surprised her and she looked at the girl a few more times.
