Practical teaching, all I want is your reward.

After waiting for about an hour or two, it was finally Suzuki Toru and Amakura Asako's turn.

"This fortune teller is amazing! He predicted everything correctly!" Honami Ichinose exclaimed excitedly as she came out.

"We'll be waiting for you outside." Chihiro Shiraha seemed a little downcast.

Driven by curiosity, Suzuki Toru entered the makeshift divination room. Inside, he saw an old woman sitting in the dimly lit room, with only a candle burning on the table and a crystal ball beside it.

"Hehe, please sit down," the fortune teller said.

Two chairs were placed in front of her, and Suzuki Toru and Amakura Asako sat down, then looked at her somewhat nervously.

Seeing this, the fortune teller smiled and took out a card reader: "Which aspect of life would you like to have divined?"

Suzuki Toru looked to her side, where there was a very conspicuous price list with about four or five different plans, the lowest being 5000 points.

"I want the basic plan." Net Warehouse Mako was the first to hand over her phone. The basic plan included aspects such as studies, relationships, and work.

"Hehe, may I ask this young lady's name?" The fortune teller looked at Ayakura Mako with a smile.

After Netsugami told her, she first looked at her palm, and then slowly recounted the divination results, which were mostly no different from the common divination conversations on the street.

However, when the topic of love came up, Asako Amakura's expression became somewhat stiff.

"For some reason, you've been hesitant to move forward, young lady. It seems you're in a bit of trouble." The fortune teller observed Ayakura Asako's reaction. "What do you want to know?"

Asako Amakura felt embarrassed to speak, and secretly glanced at Toru Suzuki out of the corner of her eye.

"Hehe, you don't need to say it. My eyes can see the secrets you don't want to tell anyone."

Suzuki Toru was a little taken aback. Was this fortune teller really that good?

Just as he was thinking this, the fortune teller immediately turned his gaze to him, a meaningful smile appearing on his aged face.

"Young lady, sometimes the meaning of meeting someone is just to say goodbye to them. No matter how unbelievable it may seem, this may be the most beautiful time of your life."

Suzuki Tetsu curled his lip; such nonsense could only fool a few ignorant students at best.

“However, I must warn you,” the fortune teller turned to look at Asami Amakura, “if you don’t take a firm stance, you’re going to suffer a lot.”

Netkura Mako remained silent, seemingly lost in thought, her expression unreadable.

"My name is Toru Suzuki. None of these solutions seem to address what I'm looking for." Toru Suzuki handed his phone to the fortune teller. "Can you identify my problem?"

Faced with such a provocative statement, the fortune teller simply smiled and said, "Of course, I can see the side of you that you don't want others to know."

"Then, please tell me what to do next?" Suzuki Toru looked directly into her eyes.

"When you're dwelling on the past, isn't the present also the past of the future?" The fortune teller performed some kind of ritual on the crystal ball. "Even if you want to go back, one day you'll want to return here."

Suzuki narrowed his eyes. He knew that cold reading was an essential skill in the divination industry, and he knew a little bit of it himself, but the other person didn't seem to be using cold reading.

The fortune teller said quietly, "The past is the past, and the present is the present. You and this young girl have too many worries, but in fact, your worries are completely unnecessary."

“I don’t think this is superfluous. Humans are emotional beings. They feel pain because of someone’s death and feel guilty for their past mistakes. We cannot abstractly separate ourselves from a certain stage of our lives and then comfortably detach ourselves from the corresponding responsibilities.”

However, the fortune teller simply smiled at Suzuki Toru's rebuttal.

"You have already given a satisfactory answer."

Suzuki Tetsuya was taken aback, then heard the other person continue, "Fate has already given hints about your question. Just wait patiently."

What is this and what?

drop--

Suzuki Tetsu looked at the deduction on his phone; this riddle-maker had actually taken 10,000 of his personal points.

Wait, it seems Sakayanagi Arisu has sent him quite a few messages.

Because his phone was on silent, Toru Suzuki was completely unaware that someone had sent him a message.

Upon opening it, I found that the earliest message was from half an hour ago.

Then came messages from ten minutes ago, a few minutes ago, and just now.

"Hehe, finally it shows as read, Suzuki-kun~"

"That's rare. You're located at the Beech Tree Shopping Center. I remember you usually stay in your dorm, right?"

"Just a moment, I'll be right there."

Chapter 236 Fanning the Flames

Why is she here to join in the fun?

A question mark seemed to appear above Suzuki Tetsu's head, but he also knew Sakayanagi Arisu's personality; this guy would really come over.

"Hey Suzuki-kun, it's summer vacation, it's so boring being alone in the dorm~"

"Want to play chess together?"

This was the initial message from Sakayanagi Arisu.

Since she received no reply and since friends can view each other's location information, she quickly discovered that Suzuki Toru was not in the dormitory, but at the Beechwood Shopping Center outside.

Although Suzuki Toru couldn't see her expression, he could imagine that, given her curiosity, she couldn't possibly ignore it.

As soon as Suzuki Tetsu stepped out of the divination room, Ichinose Honami, who had been waiting there for a long time, immediately came to greet him.

How did the divination feel?

"It's hard to describe in words."

"Hey, I think her accuracy rate is pretty high, that's amazing! She can guess everything I'm thinking!"

Seeing Honami Ichinose's smiling face, Toru Suzuki wanted to ask her what she had divined, but considering that they weren't alone together, he decided against it.

"Hey, what's Asako-chan's opinion?" Honami Ichinose leaned closer to Asako Amakura and whispered, "Did you mention anything..."

Netkura Mako's pretty face slowly flushed red, then she revealed a very complicated expression and gently shook her head: "I don't understand what she's saying, it seems like she's telling me to give up sooner rather than later."

Suzuki Toru breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out he wasn't the only one who couldn't understand. That was great.

At that moment, Chihiro Shiranami quietly approached him, her voice barely audible: "Hanami-chan divined your fate."

Suzuki Toru was taken aback and subconsciously wanted to ask more questions, but she subtly moved to the other side and moved closer to Ichinose Honami and Amakura Asako.

It's so strange. She should have seen the scene of herself with Ichinose Honami, but instead of making a fuss, she didn't say a word.

Moreover, what does this sentence mean?

Even if Ichinose Honami divined Suzuki Toru's situation, what does that have to do with her?

Why did he have to specifically tell Suzuki Toru? Did the fortune teller say something unfavorable to him?

Suzuki Toru frowned, but before he could think too much about it, Ichinose Honami eagerly set off for the movie theater.

"Wait, can I use the restroom first?"

"Okay, we'll wait for you here. Come back soon!"

"It may take a little time..."

Before he could finish speaking, Suzuki Toru suddenly heard a familiar sound.

"Hehe, where are you going, Suzuki-kun?"

Sakayanagi Arisu appeared before everyone with a smile. She was leaning on a cane and wearing a white beret that covered her smooth, slender short hair. A few strands of hair slipped from her shoulders to her fair neck. The thin shirt she wore made her look particularly petite and cute, and the slightly short pleated skirt did not cover her knees, revealing a pair of slender, fair legs.

Somewhat surprisingly, she wasn't wearing stockings, and her smooth, delicate calves were fully exposed, her pale thighs even radiating an alluring glow.

Beside her, Masumi Kamuro silently watched Toru Suzuki.

This was also a rare casual outfit, except that Masumi Kamuro wore an off-shoulder short-sleeved shirt, revealing a patch of smooth skin, with her chest slightly pushed up, and slightly tight-fitting jeans that perfectly accentuated her long, straight legs, making her look incredibly enviable.

"I need to pee." Suzuki Tetsu suppressed his surprise. He was still thinking of getting rid of Sakayanagi Arisu, but he didn't expect her to come so quickly.

It seems they were almost there when the other party sent the message.

"I see. I thought you wanted to avoid me." Sakayanagi Arisu glanced at the fortune-telling room next door, then at Ichinose Honami. "I didn't expect you two to be interested in fortune-telling. Did you arrange to come here today?"

“No, we met Suzuki-kun on the street. Would you like a fortune telling, Sakayanagi-san?” Ichinose Honami replied politely.

"I'm quite interested. What did you have divined?"

Suzuki Tetsu averted his gaze; his so-called interest likely referred to his interest in the content of their divination.

"I'm sorry, it's a secret, but I think this fortune teller is quite amazing." Honami Ichinose smiled. "Sakayanagi-san and Kamuro-san can give it a try, maybe they'll get some results."

"I have no interest in these nonsensical things." Kamuro Masumi crossed her arms, her expression slightly displeased. "Speaking of which, is someone no longer satisfied with Class A?"

"Ahem, I'm going to the restroom first, you guys chat." Suzuki Toru decided to escape reality.

"Go and come back quickly, don't keep me waiting too long, otherwise I will be very lonely and will keep thinking about you."

As she spoke, Sakayanagi Arisu revealed a forlorn expression, her resentful eyes seeming to hold a lingering memory of Suzuki Toru for a lifetime.

Noticing that both Honami Ichinose and Asako Amakura were stunned, Toru Suzuki fell silent. This guy was indeed a dangerous person.

"Tsk, she usually never even leaves the house, but now she's out shopping with a bunch of pretty girls and ignoring everyone else's messages. That's so unfair." Kamuro Masumi fanned the flames as if she were watching a spectacle.

"I go out to buy things sometimes, you know?" Suzuki Toru looked at her speechlessly.

"You can call it going out if you only go to convenience stores?" Masumi Kamuro retorted.

Suzuki Toru looked on with suspicion. How did she know his whereabouts?

"Hey, hey, hey, what's with that look? I'm just guessing!" Kamuro Masumi, of course, understood what his look meant and reacted very strongly.

"Are you looking for Suzuki-kun?" Amakura Asako asked hesitantly.

Judging from the reactions of Sakayanagi Arisu and Kamuro Masumi, they are not interested in divination itself, but rather in the person performing the divination.

“We could say that just now, but it seems we’ve disturbed you.” Sakayanagi Arisu looked at Amakura Asako meaningfully, while the latter’s gaze occasionally stole towards Suzuki Toru.

"No, actually we were just about to go see a movie. If Sakayanagi-san and Kamuro-san would like, let's go together?" Ichinose Honami said with a smile, seemingly unaware of Sakayanagi Arisu's intentions, and naturally invited them.

Sakayanagi Arisu smiled and said, "No, there are too many girls. I can't let him take advantage of me for nothing."

Upon hearing this, Masumi Kamuro and Honami Ichinose subtly averted their gazes.

They knew that if Suzuki Tetsu tried to take advantage of them in the dimly lit movie theater, they would definitely not be able to refuse.

"Suzuki-kun," Sakayanagi Arisu called softly.
