This was not uncommon in Shenchuan High School. A few girls would even read books during lunch. If you went to the third-year high school floor, you would see that almost everyone was like this, which was scary.

But even in such a high school, Toru Watanabe was still able to take third place, which shows how amazing Kiyono Rin is, who has always been reading miscellaneous books.

Watanabe Toru wanted to study, but every time he worked on the questions for a while, he would unconsciously start thinking about how to deal with Kujo Miki.

If one studies hard and takes the exams, but ends up not living to see the results announced, Toru Watanabe might become so resentful that he turns into a school ghost.

Because the academic performance list is only announced once, he has to wait in front of the bulletin board for generations to come, waiting for the non-existent high school witch to help him become a Buddha.

But it was too difficult. He could only rely on his own strength, so it was hard to think of a solution.

Although he is smart, handsome, studies very hard, and has a game system, he has to surrender when facing a super winner in life like Kujo Miki.

Headache.

During the break of the third class.

"I'm going to the bathroom." He was ready to relax and let his brain change its train of thought.

Saito Keisuke and Kunii Osamu had already entered a learning state. They responded with a hum but had no intention of going along.

When passing by Class 2, he saw Kujo Miki surrounded by everyone like a queen.

After washing his face in the sink and looking at himself in the mirror, Watanabe Toru sighed.

“Don’t you know the common sense of saving water?”

"Oh, sorry." Watanabe Toru turned off the faucet that was still running water, turned around and saw it was Kiyono Rin.

"It's you." He muttered.

Kiyono Rin walked to the sink and began to wash her hands.

In the restroom of Kamikawa High School, the washbasin is located between the men's and women's restrooms, similar to the structure of a shopping mall.

"Well," he hesitated, "can I ask you a question?"

After washing her hands, Qingye Rin adjusted her school uniform in front of the mirror.

"I don't think you need to know the answer to why a beautiful woman like me needs to go to the bathroom."

"Tell me, how can a poor high school student like me, who is handsome, smart, strong-willed, destined to have a great future, but has nothing now, kill the eldest daughter of a trillion-dollar family quietly and without being retaliated against?"

"Since I'm a poor high school student with nothing to offer, I can only rely on dreaming."

"No, he has nothing, but he is handsome, smart, and has a strong will. His future is destined to be great."

"Well, you are useless." Qingye Rin pulled the bow tie, "I have the habit of writing human observation reports, and this conversation will be recorded in it. If I die, you will be the first person suspected by the police."

Watanabe Toru felt that he must have overused his brain recently and lacked sugar, which was why he was so confused as to ask Kiyono Rin for advice.

Isn't this woman too narcissistic? Can she be more humble like him?

"Qiono-san," he said, "I started to study during the break time, and I also worked hard after school. And you, you must be reading literary classics during the break, and you will stay in the activity room after school. This midterm exam..."

"Watanabe-san."

"what?"

“I’ll tell you one reason why I’m so good: before you succeed in doing something, you should keep your face calm but be full of excitement.”

Watanabe Toru thought about it and had to agree: "I am not as good as you in this aspect, but since you told me, I will also be good at this aspect in the future..."

Before he finished speaking, Qingye Rin's small and delicate face smiled: "Watanabe-san is not completely useless. At least he deserves recognition for admitting that he is not as good as me."

"You're not cute at all."

Qingye Rin smiled without any concern, turned around and left the bathroom.

Watanabe Toru was very familiar with that smile. He also smiled like that when others said he was not handsome.

Is it so annoying to smile like this?

He turned on the tap again and poured a handful of water on his face, feeling irritated.

Chapter 26: Kujo Miki walks into the activity classroom

Friday soon arrived this week. Toru Watanabe studied during the day and exercised while listening to the radio at night.

After the free trial period was up, I purchased a membership.

Watanabe Toru was not very particular about food and drink, and he seldom went out to play. He spent all the money he saved on buying books and studying.

When I was tired from studying, I kept thinking about how to deal with Kujo Miki.

He tried to avoid meeting her at school to prevent her from completely ruining his daily life.

After school that day, he went to the Human Observation Department.

Walking on the overhead corridor, I heard the sound of the wind band practicing. I experienced life and death. This week I was studying and thinking about staying alive. It always felt like the last time I heard it was a long time ago.

But he could recognize the sound of the oboe as always.

In the activity classroom of the Human Observation Department, the beautiful girl Qing Ye Lin, who had nothing but beauty and wisdom, seemed to have pressed the pause button. She was in the same posture as when he left last time.

He took out The Great Gatsby from his bag.

"I'm returning the book to you after I finish reading it. Thank you."

"How about it?"

“I learned a lot from this book. It’s a good book. If possible, I hope to translate it perfectly one day in the future.”

"It's a big ambition."

"This is just the beginning. 'Tokyo Handsome Guy' is a much greater goal than this."

Qingye Rin sighed softly as if she couldn't bear it anymore.

"What's going on this week?" Toru Watanabe didn't care about the insult to his life ideals.

Before you succeed in doing something, you have to remain calm but full of excitement... Watanabe is such an excellent person, he can understand any truth as soon as he hears it.

Qingye Rin closed the hardcover book in her hand.

"Answer me a few questions."

"That's all? No need to trouble any other club?"

"First question," Qing Ye Lin ignored his teasing, "Do you really want to come to the activity room this week?"

Watanabe Toru was stunned: "What am I doing here?"

"Meet me."

"Absolutely not."

Qing Ye Lin put his hand on his chin, thought for a while, and then continued to ask: "Second question, have you often thought of me this week?"

"why?"

"Pretty, cute, smart. Answer the questions."

"No."

"Lie." Qingye Rin smiled with satisfaction.

Watanabe Toru exclaimed "Huh?" in disbelief. He often thought of the other person?

If you think about it carefully, it seems to be the case.

I regarded her as my goal to catch up with. Whenever I felt tired from studying, I would always think about her ugly expressions when she was proud or after failure.

But these were casual and insignificant things, and he didn't regard them as "missing the other person."

"The third question is, do you like me?"

"...Honestly," Watanabe Toru was speechless, "Kiyono-san, you really should go to your mental hospital with a nice view and many small animals and rest for a while."

Qingye Rin's face turned cold: "Answer the question."

"Not at all. Not at all."

Qing Ye Lin fell into a long thought, and after a while he murmured: "Playing hard to get is really a stupid approach. Even you can't handle it."

"Playing hard to get?" Watanabe Toru reacted, "During this period, you were sometimes cold and sometimes said disgusting jokes. Are they all playing hard to get?"

"Watanabe, you're not stupid." Kiyono Rin said seriously, like a doctor informing a patient of the results of a physical examination.

After saying this, she became inexplicably proud: "I never lie, so you can hold your head high and be a man, Watanabe-san, and don't feel inferior because you only ranked third in the exam."

"What's the purpose of playing hard to get?" Toru Watanabe has learned to ignore some of the woman's words.

"Make you like me."

"why?"

"Human observation."

"What happens after I fall in love with you?"

"Kick you out of the Human Observation Department. Liking me is a common trait among humans. I am not worth observing."

"I never fell in love with you during my three years of high school."

"You are so confident." Qing Ye Lin lifted her lead-black hair and said with a smile: "You better be careful, I am afraid of my own charm."

Watanabe Toru laughed: "Really?"

This is a smile full of magical colors, which makes people happy and fascinating.

Because of this smile, people will fall in love with the boy’s lips, his nose, his eyes, and eventually the whole boy.

It is incredible and inexplicable, just like the person you like shows an irresistible preference for you.

Qingye Rin was stunned for a moment, then murmured, "I see."

Watanabe Toru didn't hear clearly what she said. When he was about to ask, he saw Kiyono Rin slowly smiling at him.

This smile... this smile...

"Watanabe-san, are you moved?"

"No, Kiyono-san."

Kiyono Rin put away the smile that made Watanabe Toru linger like a cool summer breeze, and replaced the corners of her mouth with her usual arrogant angle.

"Watanabe-san, come on, don't let the first semester pass and you fall in love with me."

"If you keep doing this, you won't be able to live your whole life."

"Really? I'm looking forward to it." Qingye Rin said confidently.

Watanabe Toru, who was cursing [Smile·Beauty] in his heart for being useless, was about to end the topic and leave the activity room when there was a knock on the door.

Qingye Rin said please come in, and the sliding door was opened.

Koizumi Aona walked in, and the person following her made Watanabe Toru look ugly. It was Kujo Miki.

"Kiyono-san, let me introduce you to a new member: Kujo Miki-san. Kujo-san, please introduce yourself."

Kujo Miki looked at the two people in the activity room, looked at each other, and smiled meaningfully, "Interesting."

"Kujo-san, please introduce yourself," Koizumi Aona reminded again.

"Teacher, these two people know me."

"Really? That's great! I heard from your homeroom teacher that Kujo hasn't come to school for a month and is worried that you have no friends!" Koizumi Aona's pretty, naive oval face smiled.

"Teacher," Qing Ye Lin said coldly, "Please allow me to reject her application for admission."

"Why?"

"Tell Kujo-san the requirements for joining the Human Observation Club," said Kiyono Rin.

Watanabe Toru blinked.

These words were definitely not directed at Kujo Miki. The tone was so impolite, so naturally they were not directed at Mr. Koizumi. In other words, were they talking to him?

"Since you are the minister and asked me to leave early, I will be your mouthpiece for once."

Watanabe Toru cleared his throat.

"First, you must read the company's requirements before the interview; second, you cannot like the manager; third, you cannot lie; fourth, you must be smart enough..."

"What stupid things are you talking about."
