In a café in Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo, several high school students are gathered together, laughing and joking.

One of the girls, with short hair, was sweetly holding her boyfriend's arm when she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yamamura, why did you put on makeup today? I thought you never wore makeup."

"Yes, and you clearly came alone, didn't you?"

Several girls were teasing their middle school classmates when Sadako Yamamura, sitting opposite them, unconsciously touched her braids and said with a reserved smile, "It's been a long time since I've seen you guys, so I dressed up specially."

"If you had said so earlier, we would have simply invited a few more guys to come out for a social gathering," the short-haired girl joked.

Her boyfriend attends an all-boys school, so if she wanted to arrange a blind date, she could probably find quite a few people.

However, Sadako Yamamura didn't seem very interested in this matter. She just smiled politely and continued stirring her coffee, as if she was waiting for someone to arrive.

The other girls were also waiting, but perhaps the object of their waiting was different from that of Sadako Yamamura.

The girl named Morita suddenly smiled knowingly:

"Speaking of which, why hasn't Tomie arrived yet? I wonder if she came alone."

"She either came alone, or she definitely brought a whole bunch of men with her." The short-haired girl frowned, somewhat annoyed, and said, "Why did we have to invite her to this party?"

"Don't say that. Not many classmates have time to come, and we were all classmates before," a more rational person said, offering some words of comfort.

For someone like the short-haired girl who already has a crush, Tomie Kawakami is a huge threat.

After all, no one wants their boyfriend's attention to be on other girls.

However, the fact that Tomie Kawakami came was at the invitation of the party organizer. Even if some people were dissatisfied, they couldn't just jump out and say things like "Why did you invite her?" - Japanese social culture is really too complicated. No matter how much you dislike someone behind their back, you won't show it on the surface.

Moreover, not all girls have an unpleasant impression of Tomie Kawakami.

If we exclude the intangible charm of Tomie Kawakami that is like poison to the opposite sex, her overly delicate face also makes it easy for girls around her to revolve around her, as if she were the center of attention, which is what is called a "popular character".

"Tomie probably won't bring any guys with her, right?"

"That guy received so many love letters but never responded. Maybe she wasn't even interested in dating him..."

Several girls huddled together, discussing it animatedly, while the boys were curious about what Kawakami Tomie actually looked like.

Seeing their heated discussion, Sadako Yamamura thought for a moment and said calmly:

"Tomie already has a boyfriend."

"Really?"

Junko Morita was taken aback. She hadn't expected that while the others were joking around, Sadako Yamamura would actually stand by and watch.

However, the other person was a high school classmate of Kawakami Tomie. Although they weren't in the same class, the other person was obviously much faster at getting information than them. If they were dating, then they really were dating. I just don't know which boy will be so lucky.

Girls are naturally inclined to gossip, and when she heard that Kawakami Tomie actually had a crush on a guy, she immediately became curious.

Sadako Yamamura had only said it casually, but seeing so many people staring at her, she could only sigh helplessly and whisper:

"Her boyfriend is my classmate, um...you'll be meeting him soon."

"What does it look like?"

Junko Morita's curiosity kept getting the better of her.

However, before she could even ask the question, as if to confirm what Sadako Yamamura had said, the wind chimes at the entrance of the café suddenly began to sway, producing a clear and melodious sound.

Everyone instinctively peeked over and saw the exquisitely made-up and extremely charming Tomie Kawakami, who was walking into the cafe arm in arm with the boy next to her, smiling broadly.

The boy was very tall. Even though Kawakami Tomie was already considered tall, she only reached the boy's shoulder.

The other person was dressed very casually, even a little too plainly, wearing only a white short-sleeved shirt and jeans, but his features were very handsome, and his eyes were deep and seemed to have a magical quality. Staring at him for a long time seemed to make you fall into his eyes and be unable to extricate yourself.

—Tomie Kawakami is not the only one in this world with charisma-related supernatural abilities.

Mermaids, regardless of the country, have always been considered exceptionally beautiful creatures in ghost stories, even in Japan. Furthermore, mermaids are said to possess incredibly beautiful, heavenly voices. Legend has it that in ancient times, mermaids lured people to the seashore with their melodious songs and then devoured them...

This is a kind of thing that's just as bizarre as Tomie Kawakami.

Moreover, Kiyokawa Kiri didn't know when he ate Omi Kin, but the mermaid's influence made him evolve in the same direction as the other. When he appeared in front of this group of girls in their prime, the mermaid's charm made them unable to look away.

The boys were practically staring at Kawakami Tomie with their eyes practically popping out of their sockets, while the girls wished they could rush up right now, push Kawakami Tomie away, and lie in Kiyokawa Kiri's arms.

"Sorry, I'm not late, am I...?"

Seeing the reaction of this group of sluts, Kawakami Tomie smiled with satisfaction.

This was exactly the feeling she wanted. After all, she had already received enough lustful glances from the opposite sex. Now she wanted to receive the envious glances from the same sex, which would satisfy her inner desires. And Kiyokawa Mist certainly did not disappoint her.

—Even if this guy does nothing, just standing here is enough to attract everyone's attention.

Simply put, it's giving Kawakami Tomie a lot of face.

There's no way around it; she's inherently an extremely arrogant woman. If she can't attract attention from others, she'll feel uncomfortable all over.

"No, I'm not late..."

Junko Morita opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

She stared at Kiyokawa Kiri the whole time, feeling both shy and shocked. She was shy because a handsome guy had arrived, and shocked because he was actually Kawakami Tomie's boyfriend... Perhaps there was also a little bit of jealousy at play.

You two have done so many terrible things, that couple is practically eyeing you with their own eyes... If I were your classmate, I would never invite you to the next party.

Omi's voice, tinged with sarcasm, rang out.

She could see clearly that as soon as Kiyokawa Kiri and Kawakami Tomie entered the cafe, the short-haired girl immediately let go of her boyfriend's arm, and the latter even moved slightly away from the seat—the two of them were staring at Kiyokawa Kiri and Kawakami Tomie respectively, which made Omi Kin feel a little nauseous.

In the past, she wouldn't even have considered such a person as food, as they were simply too disgusting.
