Tokyo Love Story

At this point in time, that is, the time when he just entered the office, the manual pinning should have been completed at this point in time.

Beichuan Che looked back and raised his head to look at Beiyuan Linyin, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes, "How did you know? As far as I know, you are actually..."

In his impression, Kitaen Rinyin was not someone who was keen on visiting these campus forums.

"I saw it in the class's Line group. To be more precise, Miao showed it to me." Beiyuan Linyin paused, a hint of worry flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly covered by indifference. "You, are you not hurt?"

"No, I'm full of energy."

Beichuan Che shook his head.

Thanks to the daily sparring with Ejima Tadashi, his practical experience was not much, but it was definitely not little. It was more than enough for him to deal with those bad boys. What's more, those who were armed had been knocked down cleanly and neatly by Ejima Tadashi.

"If you encounter something like this in the future, don't be stubborn and always put your own safety first."

Beiyuan Rinyin's tone calmed down a little.

"it is good."

Beichuan Che could hear the concern in her tone, but in matters like this, once one decides to intervene, there is actually no room for mediation.

"Don't take it lightly." Beiyuan Linyin frowned, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, "If you get hurt, people who care about you will be worried about you."

After the words were spoken, both of them fell silent.

After looking at each other, Beichuan Che nodded slightly and gave her another affirmative answer quite seriously.

The advantages and disadvantages of the information age are more obvious in smaller places. More and more people see the post and more and more people forward it.

He, Kitagawa Che, also transformed from Kashiwabara Shiori's "rumored boyfriend" into a heroic figure who helps others when he sees injustice.

Few against many, heroes saving beauties, these keywords all fit the descriptions of ronin swordsmen in Japanese period novels. If romance events are just for fun, then acts of bravery are enough to make most boys' blood boil and their hearts surge.

For a time, many boys changed their impression of Kitagawa Che.

After the first class in the afternoon, Kiriyama Taku, who had been "reserved" for the whole morning, finally couldn't hold it back and took the initiative to talk to Kitagawa Che.

He rolled up his draft book and handed it to Beichuan Che, looking like a host interviewing someone, "Excuse me, Beichuan, how does it feel to be a hero saving a beautiful girl?"

As these words fell, all the students who were still in the classroom during the break pricked up their ears. They had also been patient for the entire morning, and the curiosity in their hearts could no longer be suppressed. However, out of the same reserve, they still chose to remain silent.

Now, someone has taken the initiative to ask, which is great.

Who doesn’t have a heroic plot?

No matter how cool the tough male protagonist in a TV drama is, that’s just a TV drama. It can’t be as exciting as the few-versus-many situation in real life. What’s more, this few-versus-many protagonist is your classmate.

This is especially true given that Kitagawa Che has left a very good impression on everyone.

After listening to his first-person bragging, they will have something to chat about with students from other classes.

You can even wait for the other party to ask, "Hey, is that Beichuan in your class?" Then you can pretend to be nonchalant and reply, "Yes, he is my friend."

Beichuan Che was stunned for half a second, and shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "What if I don't feel anything?"

He couldn't just say that he did as Ejima Myo taught him and took advantage of the terrain of the alley to turn the one-on-many situation into many-on-ones, and then started swinging punches, and then everyone fell down.

"Huh!?" Kiriyama Taku was stunned, put away the simple 'microphone', turned his head, and glanced at the classmates who were no longer reserved and looked at this side with burning eyes. As if he was encouraged, he took the initiative to stir up the atmosphere on the scene, "This is a hero saving a damsel in distress, or a few against many, the suspension bridge effect, don't you know it, Kitagawa!"

"do not know."

Beichuan Che responded with this sentence in a very disrespectful manner.

Compared to this, he would rather have Kiriyama Taku come and talk to him about his 'rumored boyfriend'. At least he could answer with silence.

Now, he no longer has this option.

As soon as the words fell, a boy sitting not far away immediately acted as an off-field aid, imitating the voice of the narrator in the TV documentary and explained, "The suspension bridge effect refers to when a person crosses a suspension bridge with trepidation, his heart rate will involuntarily speed up.

"If he happens to meet another person at this time, he will mistakenly interpret the faster heartbeat caused by this situation as a physiological reaction caused by the other person making his heart beat faster, and thus develop feelings of love for the other person.

“Generally speaking, it can also be derived into other scenarios.

"For example, you, Kitagawa, have already experienced an incident where you saw injustice and helped others. This is a typical example."

Kiriyama Taku turned his eyebrows away and gave the latter a look that said "well done", then quickly turned his head and continued to interview Kitagawa Che, "So, aren't you looking forward to it? The previous rumors are what happened before, and the current ones are another matter.

"If there is such a premise, then the rumored boyfriend is actually not... understandable, right?"

Before he could finish his words, Taku Kiriyama winked at Kitagawa Che twice, and his eyes became ambiguous.

"How can there be so many?" Beichuan Che poured a bucket of cold water on him and scolded him with a bad smile, "You think too much."

"Are you trying to say that I'm vulgar and ambiguous? Come on, I'm being real and unpretentious." Kiriyama Taku pursed his lips and changed the subject, "And don't you have any imagination at all? After being a hero and saving a beauty, you get a beautiful girlfriend and start a shameless and happy life from then on."

Beichuan Che shook his head helplessly, "No."

What's more, if Kashiwamoto Shiori was really that easy to deal with, Yanoike wouldn't have been rejected so badly that day.

"Well, even if we take a step back, at least we can have a pretty friend of the opposite sex, is that okay?"

Kiriyama Taku still didn't give up. After giving in, he continued to speak.

"No, why do you keep thinking about it?"

Beichuan Che gave this guy a cold look, but before he could say anything else, there was a light knock on the back door of the open classroom.

"Kitagawa-san, someone's looking for you."

The boy sitting at the door shouted excitedly.

The voice was so loud as if the leading actress in a hit TV series appeared next to him.

Subconsciously, everyone looked over there.

Another person at the center of the incident was also pushed to the forefront. The "Mei" in the hero-saving-beauty scene had arrived outside the classroom door at some point.

Kashiwagen Shiori's gaze fell on Kitagawa Che's face.

The delicate face that emphasized the sense of distance relaxed.

Their eyes met in the air.

The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she smiled generously.

The ice melts at this moment, and spring comes and flowers bloom.

Kitaen Rin also looked over there.

Looking at the graceful figure, her brows unconsciously frowned.

Thank you for the reward from Kai Omachi. Your support is my motivation for writing.

Chapter 38 Mr. Colleague

At the invitation of Kashiwagen Shiori, Kitagawa Che was watched by his classmates in Class A of Grade 1 as they walked around the teaching building and along the long stone steps to the playground.

In the classroom, when the two people's backs gradually walked away and disappeared from sight, the atmosphere in the class became heated up again.

The incident of the hero saving the beauty finally ushered in the development that everyone liked to see. After looking away, Kiriyama Taku excitedly started discussing with several boys, and some girls also whispered and gossiped about the relationship between Kitagawa and Kashiwa Yuan.

Taking advantage of the excitement in the classroom, Ejima Mia gently pulled Kitaen Rin's hand. After the latter turned around and looked at her, she explained in a low voice, "There is not much relationship between Senior Baiyuan and the young master."

She knew very well her young master's attitude towards Kashiwagen Shiori, and he was not that interested in her.

After she finished speaking, Beiyuan Linyin's expression looked better, but she still looked tense.

In this regard, Ejima Miyabi could only choose to shut up and stop saying anything extra.

From the perspective of a close attendant, she respected her young master's decision. From her personal perspective, she still hoped that Kitaen Rin and her young master would be together.

First, the two families have known each other for so many years. Even though the relationship between the young master and Miss Linyin has always been lukewarm and even hit rock bottom at one point, the time of acquaintance is there, and the two families know each other well. Even if the relationship is not that good, they are genuine childhood sweethearts.

The second reason is based on the kindness of Uncle Beiyuan and Auntie towards the Young Master. They like him very much and admire him very much. Under this premise, if the engagement continues, it means winning twice. To put it bluntly and selfishly, if the engagement is maintained, the Young Master will be able to relax a lot in his future life.

And the most important point is that if Miss Rinyin and the young master are successful, she can continue to stay by his side as a close attendant with full legitimacy.

Outside the classroom, on the stone steps leading to the playground.

"You didn't give me a chance to introduce myself that day. Now, can you give me a chance?"

After walking up a few steps, Kashiwagen Shiori turned her head and took the initiative to start a conversation.

The girl's voice was slightly cold, but compared to its indifference in the past, it was now much softer.

"Kaiyuan classmate." Kitagawa Che met Kaaiyuan Shiori's gaze. As they walked side by side at this distance, he could even smell the faint orchid-like fragrance coming from her. "Forget about introducing yourself. The bell will ring in three minutes. Can I..."

He could already guess what kind of storm he would face when he returned to the classroom and after class.

"I've already asked for leave for you." Kashiwagen Shiori blinked and explained, "To be more precise, it was Sister Rina who asked us to go to the principal's office and confront Kirino Ryoko and her teacher."

After hearing this explanation, Beichuan Che's expression relaxed.

"You know my name, and I know your name, but that doesn't count as knowing each other."

As Shiori Kashiwa said this, she quickened her pace a little. After climbing up several stone steps, she stopped at a relatively flat place, turned around, and extended her right hand to him, "Nice to meet you, Kitagawa."

"Nice to meet you, Boyuan."

Beichuan Che stretched out his left hand, shook hers lightly, and then withdrew it.

"It's not Baiyuan classmate, it's Baizhi." Baiyuan Shizhi paused and corrected Beichuan Che's address, "I am also the author of Baiyuanchuan Library. This is my pen name, Mr. Colleague."

She didn't tell anyone that she had asked an industry veteran to write a recommendation for him on the book cover.

Firstly, she felt that it was unnecessary, and secondly, when she spoke of this matter herself, it always gave people a weird feeling, as if she was deliberately seeking credit.

"Well, Bai Zhi, hello."

Beichuan Che has never been bothered by the issue of address.

As for the identity of Kashiwamoto Shiori, both Kamino Kaoru and Tsugumi Seina had revealed the truth to her, so he was not surprised.

As for why the other party knew him, she had too many channels, so he didn't intend to delve into it.

"Hmm~" Kashiwahara Shiori nodded in satisfaction, turned her back, and gently grasped her right wrist with her left hand. She started walking again, her long legs with well-proportioned body slightly crossed under her pleated skirt, and she walked forward slowly. "The principal's office is in the office building opposite the outdoor playground. We still have to walk for a while."

"Ah."

Kitagawa Che followed Kashiwamoto Shiori silently.

He really didn't know which direction the principal's office was, let alone which way to go.

"About thanking..."

When Kashiwagen Shiori said this, she stopped and waited until Kitagawa Che walked to her side before she followed him.

The two walked side by side again.

So she continued, "You helped me once, and just saying thank you would be too vague.

"I don't like such vague things. If you need my help in the future, just tell me.

"I should be able to help you in some way at the Kashiwagawa Library."

"Also, I've already dealt with the matter regarding Kirino Ryoko, so you don't need to worry." Kashiwahara Shiori paused, and glanced at Kitagawa Che, who looked calm and composed. She was a little surprised at his calmness, and added, "Including the part outside the school, it has also come to an end."

Her father had always been very efficient in these matters.

The only thing that struck her as a little subtle was that after she made that phone call, a few familiar bald bodyguards appeared in the apartment building she rented.

*

The confrontation ended much faster than Kitagawa Che had imagined. It was not even a confrontation. It lasted only three minutes before the scene fell into deathly silence.

Facts speak louder than words, and truth is the sharpest knife.

When Kashiwagen Shiori took out the evidence and told the story in detail, the first person to fall silent was Takamura Fumio, who had been very loud before, and the next person to fall silent was Kirino Ryoko, who had a pale face.

In the end, with the principal's speech, the matter was settled.

Kaoru Takamura received a big resignation package. As for the things she had done, the school would keep some of her things in the files at its discretion. When she heard the result, she collapsed to the ground on the spot.

Kirino Ryoko will be handed over to the police station for handling, and the evidence provided by Kashiwamoto Shiori will be sent there together. The police station will follow normal regulations and procedures. The principal also specifically mentioned that if Kirino Ryoko wants to use her family connections to see if there is room for mediation, she can try, but he personally believes that the police station will still follow fairness and justice.

What he meant was that he had already made specific instructions and everything would definitely be done according to the rules, so there was no point in struggling.

When Kirino Ryoko bullied her classmates for the first time, the principal had already made plans to give her a punishment that she would remember for the rest of her life.

But the bullied person chose to remain silent. Even with his support, he remained silent again and again, as if he didn't want to get into trouble again. And their parents were also mostly ordinary people. When faced with the relationship behind Kirino Ryoko, they could only choose to bow their heads without exception.

Threats, compensation, and all kinds of soft and hard tactics were used, and the parents had no choice but to keep quiet.

If the victim is unwilling to admit that he or she is being bullied, then these things will eventually be left unresolved.
