The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 295 Chapter 16 In the Name of Youth ()

In this Miss Taniyama contest, except for the friends and family who were canvassed for votes right from the start, and those who voted randomly based on their feelings without knowing the details, the students who were looking forward to the event held their ballots tightly in their hands, waiting to vote after the contestants finished their performances, so there are still many people in the school who have not voted.

After Ono Haruna appeared on stage, clips of her performance began to go viral among students in the school. These were recorded by people at the scene and sent to their friends. Unlike the other contestants' stereotyped music and dance talent shows, Ono Haruna's Kagura dance stood out from the crowd with its mysterious and elegant dance moves, winning everyone's curiosity.

Coupled with Suzuna's on-site campaigning for her, Ono Haruna's vote count on the website increased rapidly.

Looking at the vote gap that gets smaller every time the mobile web page is refreshed, Sakurai Aoi is shaking with anger. No one would have thought that the guy who did not pose a threat would now become a dark horse, with the votes constantly soaring. The ever-increasing number is rising just like her blood pressure.

Although Ono Haruna's votes are not yet in the top 5, Sakurai Aoi knows that once she enters the third stage, the swimsuit show, Ono Haruna's other advantage will be revealed - her figure.

Some things cannot be obtained through hard work. Sakurai Aoi can imagine that once it comes to that stage, her limelight will definitely be suppressed! At that time, it is hard to say who will be the winner of the title of Miss Taniyama. She knows the nature of those boys too well.

"It's all that old woman's fault!" Sakurai Aoi looked angrily at Suzuna in the center of the crowd. If she hadn't suddenly joined in and made up for the shortcoming of the Kagura dance being solemn and a little old-fashioned and monotonous, Ono Haruna's performance would never have had that effect!
Suzuna seemed to feel Sakurai Aoi's gaze and looked at her proudly with a smile on her lips.

"The pressure has been put on her." Ling Na thought, "Now it depends on whether she will make some unnecessary moves to stabilize the situation."

"That old woman is targeting me!" Noticing Suzuna's faint smile, Sakurai Aoi bit her nails and thought, "No, I have to think of a way to attract everyone's attention!"

Sakurai Aoi didn't think much about why Suzuna targeted her, because as the top predator in the academy, she could feel that Suzuna was the same kind of person as her. It was like a lion intruding into the territory of another lion. There was no reason, but hostility would arise in their hearts as soon as they met.

——Because the other person has taken away your attention.

"Is there any other way..." Sakurai Aoi searched her brain hard and found that most of her countermeasures had failed due to accidents. Now, she had very few cards to play, so she pondered for a moment and chose the card that looked the most promising...

There are no clearly defined seating areas in the seating area under the playground, so the relatives and friends of some contestants usually occupy advantageous positions in advance, and then sit together to cheer for the contestants they support, just like the people in the Supernatural Department.

Among these seats, the group of friends and family that occupied the largest area was naturally Sakurai Aoi's cheering group. However, at this time, although they were wearing headscarves with the words "Sakurai Aoi" on their heads and holding Sakurai Aoi's cheering signs in their hands, what they were discussing was the dance of the two shrine maidens just now.

"I didn't expect Ono-senpai to have that side of her~"

"Who says it's not true? Everyone says she has a bad reputation. In my opinion, it must be a rumor. I don't believe that someone who can dance like that would do something like that."

"Suzuna-chan is pretty good too, she's my type. I really want to go over and shake her hand, but there are too many people and I can't squeeze in."

"Cough cough..."

"Huh? Why did you poke me?"

"Behind, behind..."

When a member of the cheering club turned around, he saw Sakurai Aoi standing behind them with a gloomy face. The atmosphere became a little awkward for a moment.

"Don't get angry... Don't get angry here..."

Sakurai Aoi suppressed her anger. She had originally intended to come over to comfort these guys during the break and implement her plan. She didn't expect to hear these words, which made her very angry. However, she pretended not to hear them, put on a gentle smile, bowed to the fans in the cheering group and said, "Thank you very much for your support. Thank you for your hard work."

"No hard work, no hard work!"

"Sakurai-san, why are you here?"

"Are you thirsty Sakurai? Would you like a drink?"

After seeing the goddess coming, the lickers all showed a concerned expression, and Sakurai Aoi bowed to them one by one to express her gratitude, which moved them so much. Just when they were flattered, after Sakurai Aoi bowed once, a yellow talisman paper fell from her body and landed in front of everyone.

Sakurai Aoi's face turned pale and she hurriedly picked it up and put it away, but it was too late.

"What is that? It looks like a talisman paper?"

"Why does Sakurai-san have this on him?"

"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten that Sakurai-san encountered a supernatural incident yesterday."

"Oh, is it about that little Maeda who was possessed?"

"That ugly fat pig, I don't think she's possessed at all, she's just trying to scare Sakurai-san on purpose."

"Even though Sakurai-san is always so nice to her..."

Just when the bootlickers were standing up for Sakurai Aoi, Sakurai Aoi suddenly exploded.

"I don't allow you to say that about Yui!" Sakurai Aoi shouted, "She can't possibly be that kind of person! Pretending to be a ghost to scare me... Why would she do that?"

Not far away, Lingna, who had changed her clothes, was continuing her live broadcast. Suddenly, she heard a noisy sound nearby, so she showed a surprised expression to the camera: "Oh? Something seems to have happened there? Let's go and check it out!"

Noticing the camera coming, Sakurai Aoi performed even harder. She shouted, "How can you say that about Yui! How could she do that? What's her purpose?"

"Jealousy?" a boy speculated, "I heard that girl also participated in this selection event. She really didn't look in the mirror. How could she be selected based on her appearance? I'm afraid she couldn't even make it through the first round of auditions. So she did that out of jealousy, right?"

"Impossible...Yui can't possibly..."

Another girl said: "Sakurai, you are just too kind and trust everyone so much. I think she just wants to scare you to satisfy her own twisted desires."

Sakurai Aoi turned around and sobbed, and said very sadly: "Don't say it... I don't want to admit that Yui is that kind of person..."

"How dare she...how dare she say that..."

In the dim room, watching the live broadcast, Yui Komaeda was so angry that tears came out of her eyes. She wanted to rush into the screen and slap the woman right now. When she thought that she would be despised by everyone in the future and become an ugly monster driven by jealousy in everyone's mind, she felt extremely desperate.

But she had no other choice. Even if she told others, no one would believe her. So, it was better to endure it silently. Maybe she would be less attacked.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from the screen.

“She’s acting!”

Kawasaki walked into the camera, followed by the members of the Psychic Club. Kawasaki clenched his fists and shouted at Sakurai Aoi, "You bastard, you cheated to win the title of Miss Taniyama last time! That's fine, but now you dare to use her like this just to get the title of Miss Taniyama. It's unforgivable!"

As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar.

Ling Na said meaningfully to the camera: "Wow~ Now we have something interesting to watch~"
