The cherry trees, which had passed their blooming season, were still bright green and swaying in the warm breeze of early summer. The ringing of the school bell had no effect on a certain free-spirited boy.

Kurusu Akatsuki walked slowly into the administrative building and knocked on the door of Xin Ma Xiaolian's office.

"Principal, I'm here."

"Oh, it's Amemiya..." Xin Ma Xiaolian seemed to be worried. He looked at the open folder on the table and answered listlessly.

It wasn't until Kurusu Akatsuki came closer that he forced a smile, which gradually became natural. Then he asked in a casual tone, "How have you been at school lately?"

"It's very fulfilling. I can clearly feel the support of all the teachers in the teaching and research group..."

"Don't be so polite. I know you're a smart kid." Xin Ma Xiaolian closed the folder in front of him. "Tell me if there's anything that makes you feel uncomfortable."

Kurusu Akatsuki confessed, "That's not the case. I'm having a great time here at Shujin."

Xin Ma Xiaolian's smile was now more sincere. "Have you encountered any difficulties in life?"

"Well...if you continue studying at Shujin, you should be able to overcome all the difficulties soon. Thank you very much for the principal's financial support."

"You've earned this through your own hard work."

"No, no, no, all this is inseparable from the principal's cultivation." Kurusu Akatsuki waved his hands quickly.

Xin Ma Xiaolian thought of the arithmetic league qualifiers that ended a few days ago, and felt really proud. He also became more determined to win him over.

As a businessman who has gotten to where he is today by relying on "resource exchange", Xin Ma Xiaolian has always had an ambition to go into politics.

So he took advantage of the chain reaction of Shitong Zhengyi's downfall, squandered more than half of his assets, and emptied almost all of his connections, only then did he seize Xiujin, this "unowned treasure land".

Xiujin, a university close to the city center with the potential to connect with major well-known universities, is his opportunity to enter the political arena.

And at this moment, Kurusu Akatsuki, who was standing in front of him, was the opportunity that he saw to help him open the door to politics!

The great victory in the Arithmetic League qualifiers further reaffirmed his trust in Kurusu Akatsuki.

At the same time, Xin Ma Xiaolian also had more than one suspicion...

Can money alone really buy the loyalty of this "talented man"?

But the chips he can offer within the rules are really not that many.

......A genius like Kurusu Akatsuki who has the opportunity to be admitted to the University of Tokyo might choose to go into politics when he graduates.

As an ambitious "educator" and a future political star, Xin Ma Xiaolian is absolutely unwilling to give up Lai Su Xiao, a young man who can be trusted for at least a few more decades.

Therefore, he must be firmly tied to his own camp while he is still young and before he is exposed to too many temptations of power.

Xin Ma Xiaolian doesn't believe that adolescent boys would be completely uninterested in love affairs.

He thought of the large-scale black industries under his control.

Many dangerous and dirty thoughts suddenly emerged in Xinma Xiaolian's heart...but he quickly dismissed his attention in this regard. This is Tokyo, and he does not have as much power as in Kawasaki City.

Then we can only look for useful chess pieces from Xiujin.

The names and faces of several beautiful girls flashed through Xin Ma Xiaolian's mind. He tried to get them around Kurusu Xiao, and he had a plan in his heart.

So he slowed down his tone and asked Kurusu Akatsuki, putting on a gratified smile of someone who had been through it all, "Has Amamiya met a girl you like?"

Xin Ma Xiaolian analyzed the various information he collected from teachers and students and concluded that Kurusu Xiao should not be dating any girls at the moment... He only needs to show the qualification of university recommendation and then offer generous preferential treatment to seduce those young girls who are ignorant of the world. Presumably, he can let Kurusu Xiao enjoy an outstanding emotional life like the ancient kings.

Unexpectedly, Kurusu Akatsuki's next words exposed all of Shinma Xiaolian's plans.

Master Fengxian actually said shyly, "I'm actually dating a girl from another school recently."

"Outside, outside school..." Xin Ma Xiaolian forced himself to remain calm, cursing in his heart which bastard acted so quickly.

"Are you a student of Wuyang High School?" he asked with a forced smile.

"She's a student at an all-girls high school."

Girls' high school?!

This has dispelled many suspicions of poaching.

Xin Ma Xiaolian looked at Lai Su Xiao in shock. He didn't expect that at such a young age you already knew how to make the most of your advantages in choosing a spouse.

He actually went to a girls' school specifically to look for a girlfriend... and he actually found one for you? Based on what Shinma Xiaolian knew about Kurusu Akatsuki, this guy's standards for choosing a partner must be extremely high, and his actions to that end must have a very far-reaching purpose—

"Principal, I'm also curious, Amamiya, which girls' high school student are you dating?"

"Higaoka Girls' Academy."

Xin Ma Xiaolian's heart skipped a beat. It turned out to be a girls' high school like Yuqiu that focuses on academic advancement. No, it seems to be very close to Yuezhisen... Fortunately, you didn't mention Yuezhisen, otherwise if there were any messy emotional disputes in the future, it would be difficult for him to survive in the education industry.

So his expression relaxed a little, "The girl Amamiya-san is dating must be a very outstanding child, right?"

"Yes, she is very outstanding, and seems to be a young lady." There was suddenly some malice in Kurusu Akatsuki's smile.

Xin Ma Xiaolian acted amiable and amiable like an elder, "Can you tell me her name? Maybe I'll have the chance to eat your wedding candy in the future."

"Toyokawa Shoko."

“Fengchuan…” Wait, Fengchuan?! Xin Ma Xiaolian almost kicked the corner of the drawer.

There is only one Toyokawa family in all of Japan.

At this moment, thinking of all the gossips about Kurusu Akatsuki circulating in the school, he covered his eyes in pain and suddenly felt a little helpless.

All the dirty plans that had been growing wildly like weeds in my heart were stillborn.

Xin Ma Xiaolian observed Kurusu Xiao across from him through the gaps between his fingers, and suddenly felt that he could not quite understand this young man.

At the age of seventeen, you are not yet an adult, but you have already hooked up with the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family as an ordinary citizen. What are you going to do if you are given another year?

At this time, Xin Ma Xiaolian was as shocked as when Dong Zhuo entered the court and discovered that Liu Bian was a beautiful girl, an undoubted empress of the Han Dynasty, and had a secret crush on his capable general Lu Fengxian - highlighting the word "nonsense".

He had dreamed of a lifelong class transition, and Kurusu Akatsuki seemed to be able to achieve it at any time just by talking and pulling hands.

Xin Ma Xiaolian felt very powerless. As a businessman who had been rejected by the political arena for more than ten years, he suddenly felt an indescribable vicissitudes and confusion.

Why can someone have a bright future just by having sex with a high school girl?

"Go back to class." Xin Ma Xiaolian's voice sounded pale and weak.

The Phantom Thief looked at Xin Ma Xiaolian's tired and sad appearance, and left with satisfaction.

Kurusu Akatsuki had long known from An and Subaru what kind of dirty plans the old man, Shinma Xiaolian, who was full of evil intentions, was planning. In order to prevent innocent girls from being used by the other party and becoming a burden to him, he deliberately moved out of the famous Toyokawa family.

In any case, it is impossible for Xin Ma Xiaolian to go to the Fengchuan family to confirm.

When Lai Qixiao returned to the classroom, it was almost time for physical education class.

It happened to be the bell for the end of get out of class, and the boys rushed out of the classroom cheering. The whistles of Ryuji Sakamoto and Yuki Mishima were particularly loud.

The boys' fun is very simple. During the physical education class in the summer, they can look at the girls' white legs on the playground, watch their slim or plump figures when exercising, and comment on it with their friends. This is enough to reward the fatigue of studying all day... In fact, it is just a part of finding fun in suffering. When they go home after school, no one cares about the pretty girls in the class... The romantic fantasies of adolescence are always just fantasies. Unless they really admire them, it is far less real than watching one more erotic film.

As a physical education teacher, Kamoshida is a man, and of course he also likes to look at the white and tender slender arms and legs of beautiful girls... But he relies on his outstanding willpower and his pride as a teacher to forcibly restrain his gaze, tighten his expression, and appear serious and upright.

He organized Class 2-D to line up on the outside of the track and began jogging and warm-up exercises.

After running half a lap around the playground, the high school students' team had become disorganized, chatting among themselves as they ran. Kamoshida, standing at the far end, didn't bother to discipline them. Physical education class was their most relaxed and carefree time. He also disliked scolding students, as that would only make him seem derelict in his duty. A teacher's role in school is to guide students, not to impose a path on them. How they choose to live their lives, where they want to go, is their own decision.

These kids are young and have a lot of time to think about every step they take.

Kamoshida was waiting at the assembly point, whistling. A flock of crows flew across the blue sky above his head at a very fast speed.

He rubbed the tendons on his arms that had become softer with age, looked at the group of young boys and girls running towards him, and couldn't help sighing.

Youth is great.

......

Sakamoto Ryuji quickened his pace, catching up from the back of the group to the front, and sneaked up to Kurusu Akatsuki's side, "Amamiya, your band is famous."

"You already congratulated me on Line last night."

"Hey...um, do you think I could play in a band?"

"What do you ask for this?"

"Ahem, this isn't... I'm already in my second year of high school. I can't go through high school without even having a relationship. That would be so embarrassing..."

"I understand what you mean. You want to attract girls' attention by playing in a band?"

"Yeah, yeah." Ryuji Sakamoto nodded repeatedly.

Kurusu Akatsuki looked him up and down for a moment, then swung his knife and hit his shoulder. "Give up! You're not cut out for music."

"Hey! I haven't even tried it!"

"Don't even try. Go win a national championship and I guarantee that the girls who like you will line up all the way from the school gate to Ginza!"

"If winning the national championship was so easy, why would I come here to ask you for advice?" Sakamoto Ryuji scoffed at Kurusu Akatsuki's suggestion. "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore... Do you have plans after school? I just heard Jingqin talking to some girls in the back saying that the club doesn't have any activities today. So, how about going to the internet cafe to play Valorant? I'll call Mishima over later!"

"Are you completely giving up on reviewing? I don't think Mishima will agree to your request this time... Let's discuss playing games together after the exam on Friday."

"Tsk." Hearing the word "review", Ryuji Sakamoto immediately triggered some not-so-pleasant memories, and he booed and ran to the front to harass Yuki Mishima.

The following physical education class was also spent in peaceful volleyball practice.

*

Considering that the first monthly test is tomorrow, the colleges and universities in Shimokitazawa will also participate.

So in recent days, the Department of Mental Health Education has stopped holding band training.

Kurusu Akatsuki was holding a pile of books and tutoring Jingqin Renna and An Hesuba in the club activity room.

Jing Qinrencai has a really good foundation. After making up for many important knowledge points that she missed in her first year of high school, she has reached the middle level of her grade.

But for An Hesuba... the curriculum of the arts school was too different from that of the higher education school. Even though she listened very carefully and her learning attitude was impeccable, the progress was too far behind and she would not see any significant results in a short period of time.

......

As the sun sets, the unique orange color of the clouds takes on the shape of fish scales, covering the entire sky layer by layer.

It's a bright orange color that will burn your retinas even if you close your eyes.

Kurusu Akatsuki waited at the entrance of Shigenjaya Station for a long time and finally saw Toyokawa Shoko wearing the Haneda school uniform and carrying a schoolbag.

He waved in the direction of Toyokawa Shoko in the crowded crowd.

As if they had telepathy, the girl suddenly turned her head and saw Kurusu Akatsuki outside the crowd, with a sweet smile on her face that made people feel warm.

Toyokawa Shoko trotted over, her amber eyes reflecting the sunset light, appearing to sparkle. "Let's go."

The girl's unconditional trust and expectation were revealed in these brief words.

Then, she naturally put her little hand into Kurusu Akatsuki's palm.

Kurusu Akatsuki held her hand and walked on the street of Shikenjaya.

As he got closer to LeBron, he remembered that it was still coffee shop opening hours.

But without hesitation, Kurusu Akatsuki pushed open the shop door.

As the wind chimes swayed softly, Sakura Sojiro, who was stirring coffee beans, saw the boy and girl standing at the door of the shop.

Oh? ...He noticed Toyokawa Shoko next to Kurusu Akatsuki, and his eyes became somewhat meaningful.

"Would you like some coffee? We've got some new desserts."

Sakura Sojiro asked Kurusu Akatsuki.

In fact, he was also asking Shoko Toyokawa who was beside him.

Shoko Toyokawa noticed the store manager's scrutinizing gaze and suddenly became a little restrained.

"No problem, Mr. Sakura, I'll leave it to you."

"Thank you for the hospitality..." Toyokawa Shoko imitated Kurusu Akatsuki and thanked nervously.

She knew that this person was Kurusu Akatsuki's guardian.

As Sakura Sojiro returned to the kitchen to busy himself, it was not yet the evening rush hour, and the store seemed deserted with no customers. The young boy and girl sat close to each other.

Kurusu Akio watched the delicate and fair cheeks of Toyokawa Shoko changing slightly with her even breathing...Toyokawa Shoko always liked to tremble her eyebrows and nose, and then purse her lips. Although there were many messy emotions in her heart, she tried to hide them as much as possible and show a serious and correct demeanor.

But as she sat down, leaning against his arm, a faint smile flickered across her face. The warm light cast a shadow as fine as a grain of rice through her long eyelashes. Her pearly lips were pressed into a thin crescent, as delicate and light as a harp string, making you want to pluck it.

Kurusu Akatsuki did exactly that.

His palm slowly stroked along Toyokawa Shoko's slightly hot and delicate cheek. His thumb touched the corner of the girl's mouth, and he could clearly feel her nervous trembling.

Those amber eyes were bright, yet shyly dodging. She didn't resist, but subconsciously half of her body fell into Kurusu Akatsuki's embrace. Now, she could clearly feel her breathing becoming rapid and hot.
