Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

Not to mention, the five prestigious families residing in the Academy Building, while competing with each other, are also a natural community of shared interests.

Therefore, the influence of the entire Academy Building in Academy City is quite high.

"not to mention……"

"Our school principal has some connection with one of the board members."

"If he really wants to do it, it's entirely possible to do it by exchanging some conditions."

This is also why Misaki Shokuhou was quite confident from the very beginning.

After all, this wasn't the first time she'd done the same thing.

In order to get Director Hisako Yakumi to stop funding Junzo Motoi of the Third Research Lab at Saijinbo, she approached the principal of Tokiwadai Middle School and successfully made it a condition for him to enroll in Tokiwadai.

Now, she's just repeating the situation from back then.

Moreover, Misaki Shokuhou herself knows best.

LV5 is indeed a very valuable research resource for Academy City, but in the eyes of those high-ranking board members, its value is really just so-so.

Obtaining a Level 5 that has little research value is actually not difficult.

"But no matter how you look at it, Mugino Shizuri is completely unsuitable to be a junior high school girl."

Unable to resist, Makoto Haramura turned around and looked at Shizuri Mugino again.

This figure is not too bad. After all, it's possible for girls who develop early and well to reach this size by the end of junior high school.

But what's really hard to say is his height.

No matter how well she develops, it's impossible for a junior high school girl to have such a tall and slender figure.

"Of course not a student, but a teacher."

"The principal is very happy to be able to recruit LV5 teachers as students' ability enhancement courses."

"This elevates Tokiwadai's status far above the other four schools."

Makoto Haramura raised his eyebrows and joked:

"So, she wears this outfit to school too?"

"Of course!"

"I have received permission from the principal for this matter."

Without even a second's hesitation, Misaki Shokuhou gave a direct affirmative answer.

"You actually went and got permission for something like this."

Looking at Misaki Shokuhou, Makoto Haramura was somewhat speechless.

How strict are the school rules at Tokiwadai?

Even on holidays, students have to wear school uniforms when going out. The requirements for teachers are slightly more relaxed, but they are still required to wear suits and ties and be very formal every day. Now she is actually doing that.

"hey-hey--"

"This is her punishment, but since it's only in a school campus with only girls, it's already considered a lighter punishment for her."

The two of them weren't walking very fast. Rather than wanting to run errands, they seemed to be enjoying the moment, savoring their time alone together.

In addition, the entire Cairen Workshop covers a very large area.

This also made the distance between the two people and Fremia's room very, very long, very far.

"Hey, Shokuhou..."

"Ok?"

"What's wrong? You look like you want to say something but can't?"

When called, one naturally looks up, and from Misaki Shokuhou's angle, one can see all of Makoto Haramura's expressions and features.

"Ok!"

"Never mind, let's talk about it later."

"Let's talk about it after I finish talking to Fremia."

"What?"

Misaki Shokuhou blinked her eyes in dissatisfaction.

"Riddlers are the worst!"

Despite her complaints, Misaki Shokuhou still pulled out her all-purpose remote control and gently pressed the button with her finger.

The star mark that appeared on Mugino Shizuri's pupils immediately disappeared.

“I’ll take Haramura-kun over there. You go and bring Frenda over here.”

"Yes, Miss."

There was no doubt about Misaki Shokuhou's words; all that was needed was to completely execute Misaki Shokuhou's orders.

This is the deepest thought pattern that Misaki Shokuhou planted in Shizuri Mugino's heart.

"As expected, it's absolutely true that you're cunning."

"Frenda would probably be scared to death by you."

The facial expressions were far too obvious, and the intentions were far too clear.

Misaki Shokuhou didn't manipulate Frenda's memories at all, so what will she think when she sees Mugino Shizuri completely transformed from head to toe?

The result is already obvious.

"I'm just helping that guy make the right decision faster."

……

The iron gate, which was half a meter thick, slowly opened to both sides.

The room was bright and spacious, with a cozy design, and filled with all sorts of items and toys that little girls would use.

Although the color of the walls is a bit monotonous.

Naturally, Fremia was in the room.

"Brother Cheng!!"

Inside the beanbag chair, which had been completely nestled in, a small, white, and delicate hand slowly rose up.

"I've told you so many times already, don't call me Brother Cheng."

"If you call me Brother Cheng again, you can forget about ever playing those bloody games again."

The little hand slowly withdrew, and in its place emerged a head of smooth, bright, wavy blonde hair. Her fair skin glowed with a delicate pinkish hue under the sunlight.

"Hmph, trying to threaten me with this kind of thing again."

"This time it's clearly your fault, Brother Cheng. I was kidnapped without even knowing why, and brought to this strange place."

“Before you explained it to me clearly, I called you Cheng-ge twice, and you still treated me so rudely.”

Her voice was clear and crisp, with a hint of grievance, coupled with her twisted little face.

If it were someone else, they probably would have given up completely in this situation and gone to comfort the little girl.

Don't give me that.

"Using the same trick too often is no longer effective."

Without any hesitation, Makoto Haramura walked straight up to Fremia and flicked her forehead with his finger.

"Also, sit properly."

"You wanted to know, so I'll tell you now."

Chapter 042 Are they really just friends?

"Yes, yes, Cheng-ge, you're just like my mom!!"

He reluctantly climbed out of the beanbag chair, his slow movements like a caterpillar, but despite his grumbling and dissatisfaction, he still obediently straightened his posture.

"And then, who is this pretty lady?"

After straightening her body, Fremia finally saw Misaki Shokuhou hiding behind Makoto Haramura.

Fremia's eyes immediately lit up as if she had discovered a new continent.

Children are at the age when their curiosity is at its peak.

The appearance of Misaki Shokuhou was enough to make Freya forget about her earlier anger and focus on the young lady next to Makoto Haramura.

“Shokuhou Misaki is Haramura-kun’s friend, Freya.”

Misaki Shokuhou smiled slightly, probably having done her best to show her goodwill.

"Friends? Are they really just friends?"

"Absolutely impossible. If they're just friends, how could Cheng-ge allow you to get so close to him?"

"You know, in 'Leo,' Yoko-neechan and the others have always wanted to do this, but Haramura-nii has always refused."

She blinked her big, bright eyes, her face radiating the purest smile.

These are the most sincere words of a child. Would anyone doubt the words of a seven or eight-year-old girl?

"You're right, aren't you, Makoto!"

"Very well, Freya, from now until you come of age, you can forget about playing games."

Others may not be aware of this, or they may be deceived by Freya.

But how could Haramura Makoto, who had spent so much time with her, not know that this little one was definitely doing it on purpose?

She was deliberately seeking revenge.

"Oh, I didn't know that was the case. Could you please have a proper chat with me about it later?"

"If possible, I would also like to visit the 'Leo' constellation."

The sweet voice from just moments ago vanished instantly, replaced by a flat, chilling sound that sent shivers down one's spine.

"No, I said..."

"You don't actually believe this little girl's nonsense, do you?"

"This guy is obviously doing this on purpose."

Slightly startled, Makoto Haramura frowned helplessly and reached back with his right hand to block the small hand that was reaching for his waist.

"Of course I can see that."

"But you didn't deny what it contained, did you?"

She pushed her hand forward, but it was firmly blocked. She had wanted to try the technique described online, but her failure to do so made her a little frustrated.

"That's right, that's right."

"Of course you can come to visit. I'll be your guide then."

It shouldn't have appeared. The little guy who was just threatened by Makoto Haramura is showing up again to make his presence known.

She stared wide-eyed at Misaki Shokuhou and Makoto Haramura.

Her smile widened, and she felt as if she had grasped Cheng Ge's lifeline.

"Fremya already said that."

What about you?

Instead of grabbing, he simply turned around and grabbed Haramura Makoto's hand, their fingers intertwined.

"There shouldn't be any objections, right?"

It was soft, like holding a piece of warm, smooth jade. Unlike my own hands, which were calloused from holding guns all the time, Misaki Shokuhou's hands were flawless, without the slightest imperfection.

"Of course I have no objection."

"You can come anytime you want, and you can visit wherever you want, okay?"

Given all that, how could Makoto Haramura possibly refuse?
