Hoshimi Haruka didn't give Yanagihara Nao a chance to buffer: "Logically speaking, you are not qualified to come and see me.

“It has to be your father or grandfather who comes.

“In short, I met you today purely to give my brother a favor.

"Otherwise, based on what you have done, I cannot take your lives, but I can still make you lose some parts or something, and it is not to be blamed...

"Don't be nervous, I'm not crazy yet, I'm just joking."

Xing Jianyao finally smiled at them in a friendly manner.

The naked threat made Sakura Jiumiya and Nao Yanagihara change their expressions. They realized that what Haruka Hoshimi said made sense and she was indeed qualified.

But the closer it gets to this point, the more she cannot show weakness to the enemy. Jiugong Ying knows that she can no longer just stand by and watch.

“Even if you are a transcendent and have the dual identity of a shrine heir, you are not qualified to do whatever you want in Tokyo, in the island nation, or in this world.

"Can you bear the consequences, Lady Hoshimi Miko?"

Hoshimi Haruka has her own "nuclear deterrence", and so does Jiugong Sakura. Her eyes inadvertently swept over Watanabe Tetsuya who was sitting quietly beside her, but her eyes could not reflect his figure.

Jiu Gongying's unexpected action made the atmosphere at the scene become strangely quiet. They looked at each other, and Xing Jianyao smiled suddenly and said, "The topic has gone off the topic, but it's not too far off."

Xing Jianyao retracted her smile, stepped back, and handed over the initiative to her brother Tetsu: "I don't plan to see you, but brother Tetsu has something to discuss.

“Just ignore me, I’ll sit back and listen.

"But don't be so self-righteous and think that I know nothing." As she spoke, Xing Jianyao slightly raised her chin, her eyes emitting a faint light. Her words were extremely childish but no one could ignore them:

"Nothing you think or feel in your heart can escape the eyes that the 'God' has given me..."

Jiugong Sakura and Yanagihara Nao were startled and held their breath, not daring to think too much.

They had long known that the Hidaka Shrine could borrow some divine power from the "gods" enshrined there, but there was very little information about what its specific uses were. It seemed that one of the uses was the so-called "mind reading".

In other words, Watanabe Tetsuya has a good enough psychological quality and has been trained by the evil women, otherwise the extremely embarrassing words uttered by Hoshimi Haruka would have made him burst out laughing.

Hoshimi Haruka is really good at talking nonsense.

Watanabe knew that Hoshimi Haruka had extraordinary powers. He could roughly guess how many they were and what their functions were, but "mind reading" was definitely not one of them.

He guessed at a glance that it was Hoshimi Haruka who was deceiving Sakura Kujo and Nao Yanagihara.

However, Watanabe Toru did not intend to expose the truth. It was in his best interest to make the two women sitting opposite him cautious.

After calming down their fear, Kujo Sakura, Yanagihara Nao and the others looked at Watanabe Tetsuya.

Watanabe asked, "Where is Mr. Matsumoto?"

The most important person didn't come, but Watanabe Toru didn't show any disappointment on his face. He said this only because he didn't want to expose his flaws.

There is obviously one person missing from the Tokyo trio. If you don't ask about it, it will seem abrupt and make people pay special attention.

Jiu Gong classmate drew a key message from Watanabe teacher's words: "Looking at it has nothing to do with her Saotome.

"As for Ms. Matsumoto...she's still on her way, right? I'm sure she'll be here soon."

"I understand. Saotome won't be able to get back no matter how hard she tries. There's no need to notify her."

Briefly filtering out the topic of Saotome, Watanabe Toru threw a few smoke bombs, such as asking Jiugong Sakura and the others to withdraw their surveillance of him, and asking that he still work for the Jiugong Group, but no longer need to provide any services...

After considering the latter condition for a moment, Sakura Jiugong agreed, but she did not nod when it came to the previous condition regarding the surveillance of Tetsuya Watanabe.

Intelligence work is necessary, otherwise you will be in the dark, running around like a headless fly, and then be swatted to death.

It was just a smoke bomb, and Watanabe Toru didn't care. After symbolically pulling it a few times, seeing that Jiugong Sakura didn't let go, he didn't force it anymore.

He also anticipated the "surveillance" point. None of the evil women would let go easily.

"That Date A Live thing, has it come to this point, is there any need to continue?" Watanabe asked.

"Yes! Where isn't there?" Nao Yanagihara was still dreaming of reaping the benefits under the established rules.

She was clearly one of the shady people who broke the rules and grabbed a piece of the cake, and now she still harbors such fantasies. Naive is no longer enough to describe her.

Toru Watanabe ignored Nao Yanagihara and waited for Sakura Kujo's answer.

"What does Watanabe-sensei mean...?"

Like a slippery snake, Jiugongying threw the question back.

Watanabe groaned: "...Today is June 6rd, there are only the last four or five days left, just treat it as if it still exists.

"I will definitely have to make a choice about the final outcome. Whether you are willing to accept it is up to you. I only have two requests -

"No matter what choice I make, don't threaten me with Jiko and others again; from now on, don't let Jiko know my past and present, please leave me and Jiko some privacy..."

Just like he had complained about Yanagihara Nao just now, Watanabe Tetsuya is now also relying on and using the useless power of rules.

But unlike Yanagihara who inexplicably believed in the constraints, Watanabe didn't believe it at all.

Power originates from interest groups formed by the entanglement of organizations that control "violence". As long as there is "violence" that refuses to admit defeat, no rules can bind them.

What’s the point of a verbal agreement like in “Date A Live”?

Haruka Hoshimi, Saotome, Sakura Kunomiya... In addition to Hitomi Matsumoto, Nao Yanagihara can also easily deny and default on her debts.

So Toru Watanabe was just using this as an excuse to show his compromise and non-resistance to Sakura Kujo and the others. He himself is not as good as the bureau, so how could he possibly deceive others into trusting him?

Listening to her brother and the two women talking in unison about things she didn't know, Xing Jianyao couldn't help but ask.

"What? You don't know about Date A Live!?"

Watanabe Tetsuya and Kujo Sakura were both confused.

Realizing that her status had dropped, Hoshimi Haruka reacted quickly. She looked left and right, her eyes sweeping over Watanabe and the three of them, before nodding and saying that she understood.

Maintain the persona.

"We can understand and agree to all of what Mr. Watanabe has asked, but since June 6 is still four days away, we can ignore the old woman Saotome...

"Then the most important thing is how to allocate Mr. Watanabe's time."

The drama is coming!

Watanabe Toru's calm guidance finally took shape at this moment. It was worth it for him to go through so many twists and turns!

"How else can we divide it? Since there are still four days left...there are three of us women here, plus Matsumoto Hitomi who hasn't arrived yet, so one day is just enough for each of us!"

Perhaps Nao Yanagihara realized that she could not gain any advantage in this matter, so she just gave up and demanded equal distribution.

“This is a good method… It is impartial and the distribution is very fair.

"Lady Hoshimi Miko, what do you think?" The democratic Sakura Kujo asked her opinion instead of asking Watanabe because she had inadvertently and subconsciously forgotten it.

From the conversation between her brother and them, Xing Jianyao used her strongest brain to guess what was being talked about based on clues.

As it concerns her own interests, Xing Jianyao simply waved her hand and showed two fingers: "I want the 4th and 5th."

"Tsk... so domineering." Nao Yanagihara then complained mercilessly.

Jiu Gong Ying also asked with a smile: "Hoshimi Miko-sama took two days, how are the remaining two days to be divided among the three of us?"

"That's your business. I just want my two days."

The atmosphere became stiff and tense again. Neither side was willing to give in. They stared into each other's eyes in silence.

So Watanabe Toru reached out and held the hand of Hoshimi Haruka beside him...

Chapter 255: Hoshimi Haruka and Jiugong Sakura might become very good friends

On one side, there is Xing Jianyao, who is stubborn and plans to monopolize two days out of four and wants to eat the biggest piece of the cake in one bite.

On the other hand, Sakura Kujo and Nao Yanagihara used the excuse that it was difficult to divide the meat among three people for two days, and asked Haruka Hoshimi to spit out the meat in her mouth and divide it equally, one day per person.

Both sides insisted on their own views, refused to give in, and confronted each other vehemently.

When she felt her hand being held by Brother Toru, a warm feeling came from her palm, dispelling the last bit of chill that had trapped her in the cold pond last night. Feeling encouraged and supported, Xing Jianyao became excited.

Brother Che is on her side!

"Reality is indeed more absurd. The words fairness and equality can actually come out of your mouths. Don't you think it's too ridiculous?" Hoshimi Haruka changed her handshake to a clasp, and tightly interlocked her fingers with Watanabe Tetsuya, and the mockery in her mouth was no less:

"If that Matsumoto... that Matsumoto dared to say such things in front of me, I would only admire her for actually having such courage.

"Then teach her how to behave...

"Who the hell is she? How can she have her brother all to herself for a day!? Kujo Sakura, and Yanagihara Nao...

“I advise you not to shoot yourself in the foot!

"In previous years in Kyoto, there were only five of us women, so it was natural for us to split up the week and allocate it reasonably.

"We weren't the only ones who coveted my brother. There were also a few ignorant people in Kyoto and Osaka. But we had always jointly excluded them. If any of them continued to be ignorant, I don't need to say much about their fate..."

Xing Jianyao frankly told the secret that no one else could know. She was not afraid of the other party leaking it out, and continued:

"Now with the two of you included, there are exactly seven of us, occupying all the quota for a week.

"And from what you said, you want to bring Matsumoto in as well, so that he can enjoy the same treatment as us?"

"We naturally don't mean that. It's just that Lady Hoshimi Miko's tyranny has encroached on our interests, so we naturally have to fight back, that's all." Jiugong Sakura responded with a smile.

This is the only reason why she will never back down.

She was like that when facing Saotome Hazuki before, and she is doing the same when facing Hoshimi Haruka now. If the five women of Kyoto join forces to put pressure on her in the future, Jiugong Sakura will not back down. At worst, she can just gather a few people to team up and fight together!

If Shinichi wants to kick her out, Saotome will call for help, but she can't. But if Kujo Sakura really reaches the point and possibility of losing Watanabe Tetsuya in the end, she will choose to overturn the chessboard!

At worst, we can all finish the game together, and no one will be the final winner!

The atmosphere became increasingly tense. Watanabe Toru went to shake Hoshimi Haruka's hand, intending to persuade her not to give in on this matter. But before he could say anything, Hoshimi Haruka, who had misunderstood, was excited and delighted, thinking that she had won...

Well, I’m still too young, and my personality hasn’t really matured yet.

If it was Tsukimiri or Hidaka Mari, they would have been more cautious and had a way out.

Hoshimi Haruka was so scared that she forced Kujo Sakura and the others to break up with Matsumoto Hitomi and not allow her to enjoy any time arrangements for the next four days. Watanabe Toru also felt that he could no longer sit idly by.

Otherwise, once they really discussed and said those words, wouldn't it be very conspicuous if Watanabe Toru tried to stop them? He would almost expose his purpose of wanting to date Matsumoto Hitomi!

At that time, it will only attract attention from many parties. Even if they finally agree to give Matsumoto Hitomi one day to date Watanabe Toru, he can imagine how serious the surveillance will be.

In that situation, would Watanabe Tetsu still dare to kill Matsumoto Hitomi? Even with the interference and assistance of Sakuraba Miki, how could he guarantee that they would not find out?

It’s as difficult as climbing to the sky!
