Practical teaching, all I want is your reward.

Karuizawa Kei is the Brahmin of the girls' group in Class D, the absolute center of the circle, with more than half of the girls surrounding her.

On one hand, her appearance is too intimidating. Her hot and sexy outfit with an invincible slant makes her look like a big sister, which naturally attracts many girls to follow her.

On the other hand, it was because she won over Hirata Yosuke within days of the start of the semester, and by leveraging his popularity, she further solidified her position in Class D.

Therefore, it would be somewhat embarrassing for Karuizawa Megumi, as a Brahmin, to apologize to a girl in Class C in public.

Of course, one could argue that she needs to maintain a strong public image, but regardless, she doesn't seem to have the ability to solve problems.

This is the crux of the conflict.

"Her boyfriend is Hirata, right? Why didn't he help his girlfriend in this situation?" Suzuki Toru asked knowingly.

Kikyo Kushida hesitated and said, "I don't know, but I always feel that there's something wrong with the two of them. Although they seem very close, Hirata-kun has never called her by her name."

Yes, Hirata Yosuke always referred to her as Karuizawa-kun, just like everyone else in the class.

In Japan, if two people call each other by their first names, it usually implies a close relationship, such as lovers, good friends, or family.

"Maybe Hirata is just a little shy. He might have already taken care of things for his girlfriend behind her back." Suzuki Toru thought for a moment. "I remember when we were on the deserted island, didn't Ibuki steal Karuizawa's socks?"

Kikyo Kushida looked at him strangely, then said quietly, "Are you really going to make a move on Karuizawa-kun?"

Suzuki Tetsu remained silent in response.

Seeing this, Kikyo Kushida glanced at her sideways and said, "Didn't you admit it so readily before? Why aren't you saying anything now?"

"I need to know what people around me will think, after all, she has a boyfriend." Suzuki Tetsu said with lingering fear, "I don't want to be stabbed to death and beheaded for having multiple relationships."

Kikyo Kushida was initially amused, but then she suddenly remembered something and her face darkened: "Let me make it clear beforehand, I am absolutely not your ship, I was just forced by you!"

“I wasn’t talking about you either,” Suzuki Toru said casually.

Immediately afterwards, Kikyo Kushida stared at him expressionlessly.

"What's wrong?"

Sometimes I think you deserve to die.

"It's still early."

Suzuki Toru looked away, and Kushida Kikyo couldn't help but smile again, her delicate eyes showing a hint of mischief.

"Fine, I already knew you were a pervert anyway, but I won't help you." Kikyo Kushida paused. "Besides, Hasebe is different from Karuizawa. Although she is very cute, she is not active in class at all. She goes home as soon as school is over and has almost no friends."

"You can't be friends with her either?" Suzuki Tetsu asked.

"Don't underestimate me. I definitely have her contact information, and we even exchange a few words occasionally." As she spoke, Kikyo Kushida looked away for some reason.

So, it's just a very ordinary relationship?

Seemingly noticing Suzuki Toru's pitying gaze, she blushed and explained, "It has nothing to do with me. Some people are just slow to warm up and passive, like Sakura-san and Koenji-san. They are basically alone, so I can't force myself on them."

“No, seeing that you also have ordinary friends like this actually makes me feel relieved,” Suzuki Toru said. “The idea of ​​trying to get along with everyone is too tiring.”

Kikyo Kushida paused slightly, her heart suddenly pounding, her mouth went dry, and she didn't know what to say. After a moment of silence, she said, "I don't need the approval of a pervert."

"So I have never interfered with your ideas. Everyone has some insistences that others don't understand, and that's perfectly acceptable."

Kikyo Kushida quietly turned her face away. Didn't he know it was embarrassing to say that?

"I know, a guy like you is probably only thinking about doing dirty things with me."

Unexpectedly, Suzuki Tetsu readily admitted, "Sex is a biological instinct, and I really want to be sexy with you."

"Vulgar!" Kikyo Kushida immediately cursed, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to hide her blushing face.

After a while, she suddenly realized something.

"How do you know what I'm thinking?"

That's so strange. Did I ever tell him that I should make friends with everyone?

Kikyo Kushida tried hard to recall her past memories, only remembering that she was swearing when she was suddenly caught by Toru Suzuki.

"If you didn't think that way, you wouldn't have shown me your panties back then, would you?" Suzuki Tetsu looked at her strangely. To be able to sacrifice to this extent for her image, the one who should be shameless is her.

"It's...it was you who forced me!" Kikyo Kushida's face turned bright red. "Forget about it right now!"

"I can't forget it, I even took pictures." Suzuki Toru had an expression that said he would remember it for the rest of his life.

"Delete them quickly! Those photos aren't cute at all, they're awful!" Kikyo Kushida was both angry and anxious, completely forgetting the humiliation she had felt at the time, and now only instinctive shame remained.

Suzuki Tetsu certainly wouldn't delete it, after all, her expression at the time was no less than Horikita Suzune's, and even slightly more so.

"Hey, Suzuki, are you on a date here again?"

Suddenly, Long Yuanxiang's voice came from behind.

"It's rare for exams to be over, so you should relax a bit, right?" Suzuki Tetsu smiled. "Ryuen-kun, are you here because you have a date?"

Long Yuanxiang dismissed his question with disdain.

"I'm not interested in women. Women are too much of a nuisance!"

In an instant, both Suzuki Toru and Kushida Kikyo were stunned.

Chapter 219 Kushida's Conditioned Reflex

If you're not interested in women, does that mean you're interested in men?

Suzuki Tetsu increased the distance slightly, but this action did not escape Ryuen Sho's eyes.

"Don't be silly, I don't have those kinds of feelings for you." Long Yuanxiang's face darkened, and then he asked bluntly, "You did what happened last night, didn't you? Sakayanagi shouldn't be one of your people, so you lied to both of us at once."

With outsiders present, Kikyo Kushida gradually calmed down and couldn't help but steal a glance at Toru Suzuki, only to find the latter completely unfazed.

"I just told Katsuragi the answer, and what happened after that was basically none of my business," Suzuki Toru said. "Actually, you already know what the result is, so there's no need for me to come to you for the answer."

Long Yuanxiang held back for a long time and ultimately didn't argue with him. He simply said, "The answer doesn't really matter. I didn't ask that. The personal points from the deserted island will be transferred to your Class A on September 1st. Will it be sent to you or to Katsuragi?"

Kikyo Kushida blinked. Was it really appropriate to say such things in front of a student from Class D?

"Give it to Morishita-san; she's more suited to receiving bank transfers," Suzuki Toru replied instinctively.

Ryuen Sho revealed a smile, saying with a playful tone, "So it really was you manipulating Class A. Katsuragi should be your puppet by now, right?"

Unexpectedly, a casual probing revealed the true relationship between Suzuki Toru and Katsuragi Kohei. When faced with the situation of handling class affairs, Suzuki Toru's first reaction was to make the decision himself, and he did not mention Katsuragi Kohei at all, which speaks volumes.

"Don't exaggerate like that. Actually, I'm friends with Katsuragi Shigemi." Suzuki Tetsu didn't deny it. After all, he couldn't keep this a secret forever, and besides, he planned to gradually build his image in front of Class A.

"Hmph, save that kind of talk for little girls!" Ryuen Sho said dismissively, then looked at Kushida Kikyo beside him, "To be honest, I'm curious what you two are talking about here. You don't mind if I listen in, do you?"

Normally, Long Yuanxiang wouldn't be interested in them at all; they're just a pair of adulterers.

However, Kikyo Kushida was a favored member of the Dragon Group, and the two met at a coffee shop immediately after the exam, making Ryuen Sho wonder if there was some reason behind it.

However, Kikyo Kushida spoke up first: "I think Ryuen-kun has misunderstood something. I met Suzuki-kun here simply to ask him to do something for me."

Long Yuanxiang's eyes gleamed, and he sneered inwardly, but said aloud, "Why don't you tell me? Maybe I can help you out."

"I'm sorry, Ryuen-kun is definitely out of the question." Kikyo Kushida said embarrassedly, "Because someone in my class asked me to arrange a meeting with Suzuki-kun, wanting to become friends with him."

Long Yuanxiang fell silent for a moment. The implication was too obvious. Whether they wanted to get rid of him or were serious, it felt like forcing him to stay would only make him a laughing stock.

"Good luck to you."

After saying that, he immediately turned and left without hesitation.

Suzuki Toru looked at Kushida Kikyo with slight surprise, not expecting her to be so clever.

"Hmph, I'm not an idiot. He knows he won't hear anything useful even if he stays, he just wants to annoy us." Kikyo Kushida said smugly. "Similarly, we can annoy him too, and make him feel like he's asking for trouble."

"Kushida-san is indeed very clever and intelligent," Suzuki Tetsu praised her.

Kikyo Kushida stared at Toru Suzuki suspiciously, feeling that he was mocking her, but she didn't think too much about it and said with great interest, "It should be about time now, right? Horikita didn't get a single personal point on the deserted island, and she finished her exams last night. According to your contract, hasn't she become your Star Fury?"

Why do you seem more excited than him?

"It's almost over in name, but she'll definitely find a way to resist." Suzuki Tetsu guessed that Horikita Suzune wouldn't give up, and that she would most likely have a morbid obsession with personal points.

Kikyo Kushida couldn't help but chuckle, then lowered her voice: "It's no fun if she doesn't resist; it's more fun if she does. I can help you prepare her."

Suzuki Toru hesitated and asked, "Are you really not a lesbian?"

Kikyo Kushida almost rushed over to beat him up, and replied irritably, "If you mention this again, I'll bite you to death next time!"

Because she seemed genuinely angry, Toru Suzuki couldn't help but look away.

However, Kikyo Kushida wasn't too angry and soon excitedly told Toru Suzuki a little secret.

"I bought a secret weapon, it will be delivered to the school soon, then we can do this..."

Upon hearing Kikyo Kushida's whisper, Toru Suzuki wore a strange expression. He always called him a pervert, but in reality, he was the one who knew how to have fun better than Kikyo.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Kikyo Kushida was bothered by his gaze, her pretty face slightly flushed. "I'm warning you, don't get any wild ideas. I'm a genuine virgin, and I've never used any sex toys!"

“I wasn’t thinking about these things, I’m just surprised that you’re quite knowledgeable about them.” Suzuki Toru looked at the girl meaningfully.

"N-no, I can't help it, girls get curious too... I don't look at it every day... and, and I'm under a lot of pressure..." As Kushida Kikyo spoke, she suddenly realized why she was explaining all this to him, and her face turned redder and redder. "Perverted foot fetish, lewd armpit fetish, isn't it all because you forced me to say these things!"

"Okay, okay, it's all my fault. I'll call you next time."

"It was your fault to begin with!"

"..."

Perhaps mindful that they were in a coffee shop, Kikyo Kushida didn't get excited for long and quickly regained her composure, though a blush remained on her face.

After exchanging the remaining information with her, Suzuki Toru's meeting was about to end.

"By the way, Karuizawa-san didn't seem to come out today; she was alone in her room."

As soon as he reached the entrance of the coffee shop, Suzuki Toru glanced at Kushida Kikyo next to him. The girl's face showed no abnormality, and her upright appearance was just like that of a top student.

"How do you even know this?"

“Because I’m really good, unlike someone whose head is full of perverts.” Kikyo Kushida looked up at him, narrowed her eyes, and then smiled sweetly. “You asked me to help you gather information, probably because I can do more than just satisfy your perverted demands, right?”

Suzuki Toru was speechless, but his reaction made Kushida Kikyo even happier.

"Kikyo-chan, we're here!"
