Practical teaching, all I want is your reward.

Since there was no trickery involved, Asahina Nagisa put the dice in her palm and shook them for a while, until she didn't even know what number they were.

"five."

Asahina looked at him suspiciously for a while, then slowly raised her palm, revealing five small dots on it.

"That's amazing." Although she found it incredible, she was unconvinced, thinking it might just be a coincidence.

Soon, the second round began.

"three."

"You're so lucky!"

"one."

"No, no, do it again!"

"six."

"..."

Soon, Asahina Nagisa fell completely silent. In just over ten rounds, Suzuki Toru only guessed wrong twice, and guessed right in all the other rounds.

If he guesses all of them correctly, Asahina Nagisa thinks he might have some unknown cheating methods.

But the fact that he guessed wrong twice actually made his arguments more convincing.

Now, Asahina Nazuna is in a state of confusion; this is the first time she has encountered someone so lucky.

"Do you think I'm really lucky now, senior?"

"Anyway, it's a bit of an exaggeration..."

"Perhaps it's because I'm very good at this kind of thing," Suzuki Tetsu smiled. "That's probably what fate is all about; you can't help but think of things like 'What a coincidence' or 'What good luck!'"

Asahina Nazuna said in a low voice, "Besides these, good luck can also help you avoid misfortune."

"If there's a puddle in front of you, would you step into it or walk around it?" Suzuki Toru asked.

"Will you go around it?" Asahina Nazuna tilted her head, not quite understanding his words.

"If a car appears after you go around it, and the senior tries to avoid it, she accidentally backs up and steps into a puddle." Suzuki Tetsu paused. "What would the senior think at that moment?"

“That sounds really bad,” Asahina Nazuna said softly.

“That’s really unlucky. If we go back, what if this puddle is so big that you have nowhere to go? Would you just step into it?” Suzuki Tetsu continued to ask.

"Should we turn back?" Asahina Nazuna asked cautiously.

"Sure, but what if someone accidentally bumps into you the next moment, and you step into a puddle again? What will you think then?"

Hearing this, Asahina Nagisa understood what he meant.

"Is this the puddle I was destined to be in?"

"That's right, this is the senior's fate."

"In that case, I'm really unlucky."

"Besides bad luck?" Suzuki Tetsu smiled slightly. "Won't you think, 'Great, I can finally get rid of this doomed puddle, because there's a smooth road ahead now.'"

Asahina Nagisa was stunned; she had never thought of this at all.

Since it's destined that you'll step on it, why not just step on it and keep moving forward?

"Fate, luck, coincidence, destiny, cause and effect... There are indeed many incredible phenomena in this world, but the key is how we act."

Asahina Nazuna's heart stirred slightly, then she realized that Suzuki Tetsu was hinting at her fate with Nagumo Masaru. She couldn't help but purse her lips. Childhood sweethearts should be a perfect couple in the eyes of others.

Whether it's classmates or their own parents, everyone thinks this way.

She herself felt confused, as she only had the feelings one would expect from childhood friends for Nan Yunya, and the idea of ​​a romantic relationship seemed unrealistic.

However, no one else shared this idea except for her.

Similarly, no one knew Asahina Nazuna's true intentions in wanting to come to Takayuku.

"Senior, I've studied palmistry. Would you like me to tell you your destiny?" Suzuki Tetsu had a faint smile on his face, clean and clear.

Asahina Nagisa snapped out of her daze. Perhaps the magic she had just witnessed had left a deep impression on her. After hesitating for a moment, she extended her hand to Suzuki Toru.

Suzuki Toru didn't stand on ceremony and gently took the small hand in his. It was warm, smooth, soft, and boneless. It was small and soft, and it seemed that many adjectives could be used to describe the feel of a young girl's hand, making one want to touch it for a while longer.

So Suzuki Toru kept touching it.

"Wait, wait a minute, didn't you say you were going to read my palm?" Asahina Nazuna blushed and belatedly withdrew her hand.

To this, Toru Suzuki revealed an extremely wicked smile.

"Actually, I don't know anything about palm reading. After saying so much, you should know what I'm thinking." He paused intentionally for a moment. "If you were as unguarded as you were just now, I definitely wouldn't have missed the opportunity. If you don't meet the right person, fate is completely meaningless."

Asahina Nazuna stared at him blankly, then her heart started pounding, and her mind finally cleared. This guy had been aiming at her all along.

Chapter 322 Two Drama Queens

Horikita Suzune sighed softly. As expected, she couldn't catch up with her brother at the last moment, and the gap between them was widening.

Not only did they lose in the group battle, but they also ranked last in the grade. All of this means that Class 1D lost miserably in this sports festival.

However, for some reason, Horikita Suzune felt a sense of calm the moment she saw her points reach zero.

The award that Sudo Takeru was hoping for didn't go to him, but instead went to Kamuro Masumi from Class 1-A. Meanwhile, six students from Class 1-D were punished for their poor individual rankings.

Even now, Horikita Suzune can still recall their cries of despair. Some complained that their classmates weren't working hard enough, some complained that Class A had abandoned them, and some were angry at Class C's actions.

Regardless, Class D of Grade 1 returned to its original state in the new semester.

Horikita Suzune thought she would have a hard time accepting the result, but it didn't seem too bad.

The class was terrible to begin with, so this result wasn't surprising; in fact, it made her feel somewhat relieved.

You used to only cause trouble, be self-righteous, and escape reality. Now you're finally better, right? You're finally able to face reality, aren't you?

Horikita Suzune was in a good mood, welcoming the zero score as if it were a sweetening fruit.

Moreover, after the relay race ended, Horikita Manabu did not leave immediately, but instead moved closer to her.

"It seems that's all you've got, Suzune."

"No, I didn't mean to surpass my brother... I'm content to be able to stand on the same stage as him now. But in his eyes, this would only make you feel ashamed, right?"

The moment he said those words, Horikita Suzune could sense a flicker of surprise in his eyes.

"So you finally have some self-awareness?" Horikita Manabu said indifferently. "From now on, continue struggling here. Don't expect me to help you."

Under Horikita Suzune's gaze, his figure gradually receded into the distance, and the memory abruptly ended there.

The sports festival was yesterday. The girl looked at herself in the mirror, Suzuki Toru's words echoing in her ears, and she seemed to understand something.

However, she still has many questions.

As Horikita Suzune stepped out of her room, wrapped in her coat, the moonlight was serene and the air crisp. The entire academy, veiled in a light gauze, presented a beautiful and ethereal scene, further emphasizing the stillness of the moment.

She silently walked to the elevator, pressed the button for the second floor, and although the journey was fraught with danger, no one interrupted her. She quietly made her way to the second floor.

The second-floor corridor was also deserted, and some rooms had even turned off their lights, since it was already 1 a.m.

Horikita Suzune arrived at a room with practiced ease, gently rang the doorbell, and then waited silently for someone.

Strangely, someone's reaction seemed much slower than the previous times.

She frowned; she had notified the other party in advance, so it shouldn't be taking this long.

Just as she was about to press the doorbell again, the door in front of Horikita Suzune suddenly opened, and Suzuki Toru stood in front of her.

"Too slow." Horikita Suzune was slightly dissatisfied. She frowned again when she saw Suzuki Tetsu shirtless. "It's easy to catch a cold at night. If you like being an exhibitionist, then never mind."

“I have something I want you to see.” Suzuki Toru turned slightly to the side so she could enter the room.

If a normal person heard such subtle lines, they would probably turn around and leave by now. However, Horikita Suzune did not notice anything unusual.

Although she knew she should be wary of men, her relationship with Suzuki Toru was different, and besides, she knew nothing about matters between men and women, so she didn't think of anything strange.

"If it's the same thing as last time, I'll smash it right now."

Of course, Horikita Suzune remained vigilant; anyone who lost face in front of outsiders would feel the same way she did.

"Of course not, actually I caught a really big guy."

As soon as she finished speaking, Horikita Suzune entered his room and instinctively glanced at a figure struggling on the bed. Her expression froze.

Noticing her gaze, the other animal struggled even more fiercely, occasionally making whimpering sounds.

"Please be quiet, Kushida-san. The students next door need to rest." Suzuki Tetsu walked past the bewildered Horikita Suzune and squatted down beside the bed. "Besides, you said you would try your best to meet my requests, right? It's too late to regret it now."

He saw Kikyo Kushida lying on his bed, her hands wrapped around her back, seemingly tied tightly with a towel. He could see a cross on her wrists, which she couldn't get rid of no matter how much she struggled.

Perhaps it was Horikita Suzune's sudden appearance that made her uneasy. The girl twisted her upper body, eager to break free of her restraints. Her snow-white arms swung incessantly, her full breasts rubbed against the sheets, and her skirt was somewhat disheveled. Her two fair legs kicked wildly like a caterpillar. She tried to turn around, but accidentally buried her pretty face in the pillow, making a whimpering sound.

It wasn't until Suzuki Tetsu helped her up that Horikita Suzune noticed a strange thing stuffed in her mouth.

“Waaah—” Kikyo Kushida’s face turned bright red, but she couldn’t utter a single word.

"I'll take it off for you, but you need to be careful with the noise. If someone finds out, you should know what the consequences will be." Suzuki Tetsu reached out and removed the gag from her mouth, which was already covered in the girl's scent.

The next moment, Kikyo Kushida shouted excitedly, "Why is this guy here?!"

Her shout brought Horikita Suzune back to her senses. Especially when she saw the other person's appearance, her face turned slightly red, and a bit of anger flashed through her heart. She hadn't even asked her anything yet, and the other person was questioning her instead.

"Kushida-kun, keep your voice down."

"I see. Were you planning to gang up on me from the very beginning?"

"You have a lot of issues with Horikita, huh?"

"Damn it, didn't you say that as long as I satisfy you, you'll help me keep it a secret and won't tell a second person?"

"I think Lingyin also has the right to know."

"Rin, it's Rin again. You two are so close, haven't you been together for a while now...?"

"Enough." Horikita Suzune interrupted their conversation, looking coldly at Suzuki Toru. "I think I need an explanation right now."

Suzuki Tetsu had anticipated this, and immediately told Horikita Suzune how she discovered that Kushida Kikyo was talking badly about her behind her back, including her plan to take revenge on Horikita Suzune.
