I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 227 Taboo Moment
"Really coming?"

"Really coming!"

Arima Zemune was full of vigor and vitality, with his head slightly raised. His appearance was not too bad originally, but his expression was a little wretched. At this moment, his demeanor changed, and he did have a bit of youthful spirit, like a man riding the east wind and entering the world of martial arts with a sword in hand.

Dong Yeyu smiled and shook his head, unable to bear to hit him.

"I'm afraid you can't bear the blow of failure."

"I'll treat you to lunch for a week. Meals from the cafeteria. You can choose whatever you want."

Arima Norimune patted his bulging wallet and offered a reward that no one could refuse.

His family was originally a middle-class family in Tokyo. His father was a corporate manager and his mother was a full-time housewife, so he had a lot of pocket money. In the past, when he was short of money, he would basically buy games, peripherals, and new AVs.

During this period of time, he was obsessed with swordsmanship and had little time to play games, but he couldn't put his dick down. Occasionally, he would take time to buy newly released AVs, which didn't cost much. After accumulating for more than a month, he had accumulated a considerable amount of money.

"Is this true?"

Higashino Yu became interested. Tachibana Shokudo has a complete kitchen system. The head chef is a well-known chef in the industry. Although he has not reached the pinnacle of major cuisines, he has a wide range of knowledge and knows some classic dishes of Western and Chinese cuisine.

As long as you spend money, you can eat better than eating out every day.

Although his savings have reached 700,000 yen after a month of part-time work, he will not refuse a free lunch.

"Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back! But——"

Arima Norimune raised his finger and put forward a condition: "I am definitely not as strong as you, but we are competing in swordsmanship, so when you fight me, you can't use that kind of strange strength, otherwise there will be no way to win."

He still remembers that when Higashino Yu was fighting with Sugaya Tetsuya, he broke the opponent's high-level bamboo sword and his own bamboo sword with one sword. The key is that the speed was not slow. This kind of non-human cannot be defeated by high swordsmanship.

"Isn't strength one of the foundations of swordsmanship?"

"Forget it, Dongye, you are so strong. I want to have a pure swordsmanship contest with you. It's not for anything else, I just want to know how big the gap is between you and me in swordsmanship. It's hard to improve quickly in kendo without a good opponent."

Arima Norimune said, with a rare serious expression on his face, and knocked on the desk: "I'm counting on you, Dongye, to practice sword with me!"

"You've been practicing sword skills so hard recently, just for a competition?"

Higashino Yu was a little curious. His previous impression of Arima Norimune was that he was an ordinary high school student with average to below average grades, who liked playing games, watching erotic movies, and was a bit of a homebody.

Although I like kendo, I haven't been so dedicated to it as I am now. Except when I'm in class, I basically never let go of the sword. I'm almost obsessed.

Did the defeat against Tetsuya Sugaya have such a big impact on him?
Arima Norimune was in a trance when he heard this. His eyes became a little stunned. Finally, he sighed and said, "Not entirely. There are reasons for competition and honor, but more importantly, it is to fulfill a person's expectations."

Dong Yeyu heard this and asked in a low voice: "Girl?"

Arima Norimune shook his head: "No, it's a senior in kendo. I want to fulfill his wish, but my current level is far from enough."

"Why don't you help him, Tono-kun?"

Imagawa Kashiwagi, who was secretly doing his math homework, heard this, put down his pen, and also helped Arima Norimune to make the request.

"Arima-kun wanted to compete in the club recently in order to improve his swordsmanship, but probably because of the conflict he had with his seniors last time, the capable seniors were unwilling to accept his invitation to compete."

So, I am still isolated.
Dong Yeyu thought for a moment and found no way to make others accept Arima Zemune, so he nodded: "Okay, then I will practice with you."

In fact, his swordsmanship was just a few moves he stole from others. He knew a little bit from the Katori Shinto style and a little bit from the Jinguji family.

It's a hodgepodge, which can be called my style. Most of the time, I win purely by reaction, speed and strength.

He looks strong in swordplay due to his strong control over his body and his reflexes, but he is actually a novice in swordplay.

There is no harm in practicing more. When you fight humanoid monsters in the future, your swordsmanship will be better and it will be easier to hit the vital points when you kill the monsters.

When Arima Zemune saw that he agreed, he immediately smiled and quickly grabbed Dongye Yu's hand, promising: "From now on, Dongye, you will be my half-brother! As long as I and Arima have a bite of meat, you will have a bite of soup!"

"Watch less gangster movies." Dong Ye Yu pulled his hand away with some disgust.

"Arima-san, Higashino-san, what are you doing?"

The squad leader Wada Yuki came over at some point and saw Arima Zemune and Higashino Yu arguing with each other. He covered his mouth and looked like he had discovered a new world.

Dongye Yu curled the corners of his mouth, feeling a little disgusted. He didn't know what was wrong with girls of this age.

Whether it is China or the island country, people like to spread such disgusting rumors. It is probably because there are too few homework assignments.

Perhaps noticing Higashino Yu's expression, Wada Yuki smiled lively: "Hehe, just kidding, after all, Higashino-kun already has a girlfriend like Asumi-kun."

Dong Yeyu said the farewell words expressionlessly: "You came to see me, is there something?"

If you have something to say, say it. If not, get lost.

The cool and cool Higashino-kun is so handsome too!

Yuki Wada's heart was beating faster, her hands holding the notebook clenched slightly, and she stood there feeling a little embarrassed.

I looked back at the female classmates in the row in front of me who were looking at this side, whispering something, and waving their hands to cheer. The morning light shone through the glass windows of the classroom, casting a large patch of golden light.

High school life, the romantic rainy season, the laughing classmates, and the cold and cruel classmate Higashino.

Even though Asumi-kun has already gotten there first, it's still good to be able to leave behind some happy memories. I finally got Higashino-kun to agree to help, and this may be the only chance in my life.

As she thought about this, she seemed to gain strength and mustered up the courage to speak.

"The cultural festival is approaching, and we have started preparing for the festival costumes and tableware. I thought that everyone may not have worked in the service industry, so I would like to invite the students in the class to come together for a big training."

Huh? You didn't know about the Duke of Kobayashi's residence? Maybe my reputation on the Internet hasn't spread yet, which is a good thing.

After all, it's not a good reputation. It's hard to say how far I will go in the future. I might even become a person with a dark history like Bimawen.

When confronting a monster, he exchanged his name with the monster, "I am ——", but the monster laughed three times and said, "I thought it was someone else, it turned out to be a waiter."

Higashino Yu cannot guarantee that he will not become as popular as the Monkey King, and he is already preparing to resign.

Now I don't have to worry about rent, and the money I have left from working part-time plus the money I have left before is nearly 700,000 yen. If I can take on more demon-hunting commissions in the future, plus the military expenses for Miss Moon Witch, there is no need to work part-time. The extra time I have can be used for training or taking on demon-hunting commissions, which is more cost-effective than working part-time.

This time I'm helping the class organize the cultural festival, which I had agreed to do before, so I'll just treat it as the last dance of my waiter career.

"Large training camp?" asked Dong Ye Yu.

"Well, it's just about introducing some things that waiters need to pay attention to. It won't be too troublesome, and it won't waste too much time. Just talk about it briefly in class after school and practice it, if possible."

"Can you put on your uniform to practice?" Wada Yuki put his hands together and said, "Please, Higashino-kun."

"But I have already agreed to practice sword with Arima." Higashino Yu was a little embarrassed.

It's already this late, how can I still let you run away?
Wada Yuki pouted slightly and looked at Arima Norimune pitifully: "Could Arima-san join the class training this afternoon?"

There is a taboo moment in the learning career.

That is, when a cute female classmate who has excellent grades, is quiet, polite to everyone and keeps a distance from everyone in the class, makes a request in this way in front of you, it is an irresistible disaster.

It was as if the words of the most ancient king were so powerful that just a few words could make people lose sight of themselves.

As expected, Arima's expression became dazed, and he stopped practicing sword. He also forgot about his senior's wish and smiled brightly: "OK!"

Dong Ye Yu covered his face and sighed.

Soon it was time to go home from school. After the teacher left the classroom, some boys in the class started packing up their books much faster.

Pong!
The class monitor, Yuki Wada, took the lead in closing the classroom door, walked up to the podium with a smile, and clapped his hands.

"First of all, thank you very much for your cooperation. The smooth planning of the cultural festival depends on the support of the students. However, it seems that everyone is exhausted after a day of hard study. But it doesn't matter. I prepared coffee drinks for this. Although it is very humble, it is my heartfelt thanks to everyone for their help again!"

As he said this, he bowed and then with some difficulty picked up a box of mixed coffee drinks that had been prepared long ago from under the podium.

Yuki Wada usually looks quiet and composed, but his speech at this time was full of emotion. He tried his best to motivate his classmates. It can be seen that he attaches great importance to the first cultural festival of high school.

She was so attentive that the other boys, although a little shy and embarrassed, still applauded.

Yuki Wada is a very responsible class leader. Whenever people come to her for help, she will treat them carefully and seriously.

If there are any problems, I will promptly communicate with the school, teachers, etc. I have established a good reputation since the start of the school year.

So when she talked about the practice this afternoon, most people had already asked for leave from their clubs and part-time jobs, and after packing up their books, they had no intention of leaving and all sat in their seats - of course there were some introverted cowardly lizards who wanted to escape.

However, this idea was suppressed in advance by Yuki Wada.

The coffee was distributed quickly, and Higashino Yu chose an ordinary Nestlé latte - Nestlé also has a considerable market in this island country.

There is also the option of pure black coffee, but Higashino Yu prefers coffee with milk and sugar, as he really can't get used to the bitter and sour black coffee.

"The practice is divided into two parts. I borrowed the cooking classroom from the teacher. The girls will go to the cooking classroom to practice making coffee, and the boys will change into uniforms and practice receiving guests. That's about it. The details will be distributed to everyone in a document later."

Having said this, Yuki Wada handed out a stack of prepared flyers.

Dong Yeyu took it and took a look at it. It was probably some basic requirements for a waiter, such as some traditional reception terms, standing posture, and coordination when connecting with the kitchen.

The preparations are quite thoughtful. When the reputation of Tachibana High School JK Handmade Coffee is spread, it may attract many customers from inside and outside the school.

After a while, seeing that everyone had basically finished reading the details, Wada Yuki carefully asked if anyone had any questions, and then began to distribute the prepared uniforms.

It is a universal Western-style black waiter uniform, with uniform black trousers, a white shirt, a black vest, and a bow tie.

Under the organization of Wada Yuki, the girls began to walk towards the cooking room in a noisy manner, looking at the boys in the class with great excitement from time to time, most of them focused on Higashino Yu.

The person in charge of organizing the boys was the class's library committee member, Akihiro Morita, who looked fairly human and was of average height, about 1.7 meters.

But he knows how to dress up and has a good hairstyle, so he looks quite handsome among a group of plain boys.

This boy is probably the number one traitor among the boys. He has been pursuing Wada Yuki for a long time, so it is expected that he would help her organize the organization at this time. When he walked up to the podium and met the scrutinizing gazes of many male classmates, he felt a little guilty.

"Everyone, change your clothes first." He said, hunched over, and walked down the podium in dejection.

At this point, no one was in the mood to settle accounts with him, so they all started changing their clothes.

After getting the clothes, Higashino Yu looked at them for a while and was a little surprised. These uniforms were not wholesale uniforms, but seemed to be selected according to each person's height and weight.

It's not tailor-made, but it still has some texture and fits well, so it doesn't make you look like a low-class cafe waiter when you wear it.

Not as elaborate as the work clothes at Duke Kobayashi's residence, but almost there.

This costs a lot of money, right?

Dongye Yu felt surprised. After all, even if there were any activities in school in his previous life, they were limited by insufficient class funds and were somewhat half-hearted. They were not as formal as the activities in the island country.

This can really increase students' enthusiasm for participation, and to be honest, it's quite fun.

Dongye Yu changed his clothes quickly. Without the covering of his school uniform jacket, even the boys in the class cast envious glances at him.

"Dongye, you are a monster."

"Has everyone changed their clothes?"

The monitor knocked on the door outside to ask, and after getting a positive answer, he pushed the door open and took a look. His clear eyes suddenly lit up, and he glanced around, finally landing on Dong Yeyu. He was stunned for a second and whispered, "So handsome!"

After she opened the door, some girls from other classes passing by in the corridor outside were also attracted by these boys in waiter uniforms, and some of them came closer to watch out of curiosity.

As expected, Higashino Yu became the focus.

With a height of 1.85 meters, he stands out from the crowd. In addition, he has muscles that are quite powerful but not unnatural. After putting on the shirt, he fully displays the effect that the shirt was designed to have.

It gives people a sense of restrained elegance, as if he is not wearing a waiter's uniform, but a victorious knight wearing gorgeous clothes at a court dinner, who can tear off the exquisite coat at any time and go into battle to kill the enemy with an elegant posture.
