Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

It's only the second day of school!

The next day!!!

The goddess he secretly admired had already confessed her feelings to Shiro Shiro.

How could he possibly not feel uncomfortable?!

Seeing Takuma Masakawa's expression of wanting to cry but being unable to, a look of immense distress washed over him. His companion, feeling a pang of empathy, also began to feel a strange sadness, slowly recalling that summer in junior high when he confessed his feelings to his crush.

His companion wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, patted Taku Masakawa on the shoulder, and gave him a look that said, "Brother, I understand you."

But at this time.

The person in front, Shiro Kaede, said something to Rika Maejima, and she cried and shouted a few words before fleeing the place.

Upon seeing this, Taku Makawa was overjoyed and immediately hugged his companion, shouting excitedly:

"Great!"

"that is really good!"

"Rika Maejima's confession was unsuccessful!"

"Hahaha, this is wonderful!"

He never expected that Shiro Shiro would reject Rika Maejima's confession.

After all, the pear blossoms on Maejima are very beautiful.

She's no less capable than Maki Mizuno, Mirai Chitanda, and Junko Urahara from Class A.

In fact, it could be said that if Rika Maejima were to confess to any boy in her class, he would almost certainly accept her.

But how could such a beautiful woman like Rika Maejima be rejected?

Takuto Masakawa felt that Shiro Shiro had definitely gone mad!

Otherwise, how could they possibly do something so absurd?

That's Rika Maejima!

But this is for the best!

As long as Shiro Kaede doesn't date Rika Maejima, he'll definitely have a chance!

Taku Masakawa really wanted to mock Shiro Shirokaze now.

But he wanted to hold back, since his classmates were nearby.

But in the end, he couldn't resist!

Taku Makawa laughed uncontrollably:

"Hahaha, this Shinobu Shiro is such a big idiot!"

"He actually rejected Rika Maejima's confession?!"

"Hahaha, I'll show him just how stupid his decision was today!!!"

Upon hearing this, the companion standing nearby immediately became hesitant and stammered, as if there were things he wanted to say but couldn't, and his memories slowly drifted back to that summer in junior high school.

He really wanted to tell Taku Makawa that even if the goddess failed to confess to someone else, it didn't mean he could succeed.

However, seeing how happy Masakawa Taku was, he couldn't say those things at this moment.

Rika Maejima's confession was rejected, and she walked away in tears.

The incident caused quite a stir among the students watching the play near the cherry blossom tree.

None of them expected it to end this way.

"Oh my god, Rika Maejima, such a beautiful goddess from Class C, was actually rejected by Shirakaze Kamishiro?"

"That Shinobu Kamishiro is too ruthless! What did he say to make Rika Maejima cry like this?"

"Damn it, the goddess in our eyes could only be rejected by Shiro Kaname and then run away in tears. It's infuriating to compare people like this!"

"Waaaaah~ If Rika Maejima confessed to me, I would definitely say yes right away!"

"Waaaaah~ Me too!"

"Damn it!!! If I were as handsome as Kamishiro Hakufeng, would I look like this?"

"You wouldn't cry like this after confessing your love, would you? That must be so heartbreaking."

"This is way beyond my understanding, bro. I really don't understand how Kamishiro-kun could refuse, or how he could make this C-class goddess cry her eyes out?"

"Don't ask anymore, I'm already thinking of asking Kamishiro-kun for advice."

The schools are densely populated.

At this time, students, driven by the restlessness of youth, are even more eager to see such gossip.

For a while.

The news of Rika Maejima confessing her feelings to Hakufuu Kamishiro began to spread to all the first-year high school classes.

However, Shiro Shiro himself didn't seem to care much about the matter and didn't check the class group chat on his phone.

Because you must make a living before you can pursue love!

For him now.

The more important thing now is to make money first, and then unlocking the next career path is the most urgent task.

Yesterday's 6000 yen, plus the 10000 yen I won from betting with Hayasaka Kento today.

Now we are only 34000 yen away from the next career level.

After doing part-time work for another five or six days, I can start my next career!

Kamishiro Shirofumi was quite excited just thinking about it, and was really looking forward to what his next profession would be.

So after rejecting Rika Maejima's confession, he quickly went to the Millennium Shopping Street to work and earn money.

Because the private Xiujin Academy is very close to the Millennium Shopping Street.

It's only about a ten-minute walk to get there.

Therefore, many students passing through this shopping street after school will stop there to shop, eat, and sing karaoke.

Actually, Shiro Shirokaze hosted quite a few students from his school yesterday.

He just didn't know it.

After all, Ichiran Ramen is essentially the perfect ramen shop for people with social anxiety.

The staff will not see the guests they are serving.

Once the guests are seated, they will not be able to see the service staff because of a cloth covering their seats.

From entering the store to ordering food, to finishing your meal and leaving, you don't have to say a single word.

The same applies to those who work.

No need to put in the effort to entertain guests; just serve the dishes according to their requests.

The small windows where diners eat are covered with cloth.

Whether serving food or cleaning up, all you need to do is lift the cloth and open the small window.

Many people with social anxiety come here to eat and work precisely because of this.

Shiro Kaede thought today's work would be similar to yesterday's.

I had just changed my clothes and was ready to work.

The foreman suddenly walked over and gave the instructions:

"Kamishiro-kun, the shop manager just went out, and there's no one to greet you at the door. The shop isn't too busy right now, so could you please greet the customers at the door for a while?"

Shiro Shiro shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Sure."

then.

He then stood at the door to greet others.

However, it was described as a reception.

Actually, he didn't do anything at all; he just stood at the door and helped others when they had problems with the self-service ordering machine.

He can go up and help.

After entertaining them for a while...

Several students from the private Xiujin School suddenly appeared at the store entrance.

Shiro Shiro turned his head and fell silent.

Rika Maejima, who had just been rejected by him, was still sobbing.

She was comforted by several female students and walked over.

"Rika, don't cry, it's okay. Even without Kamishiro-kun, there are still plenty of boys who like you!"

"Exactly! You're so pretty, you can pick any guy you want!"

"Rika, when you're sad, you should eat to cheer yourself up. Let's go to Ichiran Ramen later and have a good meal, it's on you!"

"Mmm, I heard this place is pretty good. We're here now, let's go in!"

Rika Maejima was still crying. After wiping away her tears with a tissue, she choked back tears and thanked them, saying, "Thank you."

However, when they saw Shiro Kaede wearing the store's uniform, the three of them were dumbfounded and stood there stunned.

(⊙_⊙)(⊙_⊙)(⊙_⊙)

The three of them just stared at Shiro Kaede, unsure of what to say.

When Maejima Rika noticed that they hadn't moved, she was also a little puzzled.

After noticing that their eyes were all looking ahead.

She also looked up and looked ahead.

When I saw Shiro Kaede standing right in front of me.

Even Rika Maejima, who was still choking back tears, froze for a moment, and even stopped sobbing.
