In the anime, Ai Li's father really doesn't want to be a yellow-haired man

"What?" Horikita widened her eyes and said in disbelief and shock.

The usually calm Horikita Suzune felt a surge of rage rising to her head. "How could I be worse than Karuizawa?" She felt herself being mercilessly humiliated, and clenched her fists tightly.

It's not that she can't accept the fact that she failed and wasn't as skilled as others. She can admit her shortcomings when facing those who are superior, and she does have some tolerance.

But......

The other party actually commented in front of her that she was not as good as the poor students in the class (Karuizawa Megumi's grades and overall abilities were below the average of Class D)?

unacceptable.

"Can you tell me how I'm inferior to Karuizawa?" Horikita said stubbornly, intent on getting to the bottom of things, her gaze fixed on Kozo. She couldn't accept such an assessment. If it were anyone else, it would be fine, but this aloof man before her... no matter what, she wanted to know the answer.

Kozo didn't answer immediately, but just stared at her in silence. In Horikita's eyes, Kozo's deep gaze was extremely oppressive... His pupils were like a mirror, reflecting her own shortcomings.

However, in reality, Takashi San's silence was just... (Don't make noise, I'm thinking / Don't roast it, put more cumin) In short, he couldn't think of any way that Karuizawa Megumi was better than Horikita Suzune, "...It seems that there really isn't. But at this point, even if there isn't, I have to say it. The words have been spoken, and the character can't just collapse like this."

At this moment, he was trying his best to recall the information he had obtained about these students before entering the school (family information, life experiences).

Horikita's inner confidence was gradually eroded by Takashi's piercing gaze. As she began to feel less confident, her lips trembled slightly. "You can't point out how I'm inferior to Karuizawa-san, so I assume you're just talking nonsense." Horikita's eyes gleamed with a fierce glint, and she raised her chin slightly, as if waiting for a rebuttal.

"It's good that you think so. Perhaps it's the academic advantage you've had since childhood that gives you that confidence, right?" Xiaosan's lips curled up in a slightly sarcastic smile. "Arrogant, so arrogant. It's precisely because of this flaw that no one around you wants to follow you."

"You!" Horikita's chest heaved slightly with anger (still as poor as Yukino), her eyes widened, staring at Kozo angrily.

"Karuizawa is different," Takashi said slowly. "She is beautiful, elegant, pure, kind... and has the ability to handle interpersonal situations with ease (she doesn't)." His voice paused slightly. "These are all things you don't have."

Horikita opened her lips slightly, wanting to argue. However, Takashi San didn't give her a chance to speak. (Kong Ming said: It is better to pursue the enemy with all your remaining courage, and not give them a chance to breathe. White-haired scoundrel! Old thief with a gray beard!)

"The only thing you are proud of is your academic ability, right? Using academic ability alone as the standard to judge a person's strength really shows your stature." Xiaosan's eyes were cold.

After that, Kozo humiliated Horikita with sharp words. Horikita's face turned red, and she could not argue with him, so she turned around and left angrily.

Kozo watched Horikita's departing figure, that stubborn and angry look gradually fading from his sight, and a sense of guilt welled up in his heart. "I'm sorry, Horikita, but this is also for the mission. You can sacrifice yourself here. I will find a way to compensate you later."

Meanwhile, Karuizawa Hui leaned against a tree, the rough bark rubbing against her back through her thin clothing, but it couldn't distract her from the throbbing in her heart. Her heart was pounding in her chest, and the feeling of a fluttering deer kept her from calming down.

A faint blush crept across her cheeks... This was the first time in her life that someone had ever praised her so sincerely (Karuizawa Megumi: They didn't praise me to my face, so it must be genuine, huh). "So this is how Yukinoshita-san sees me," she thought silently, her lips curling up unconsciously. A gentle breeze blew by, ruffling her hair gently.

Takashi San sat quietly on the bench, his eyes somewhat blank, and waited for a long time, and then Karuizawa Megumi's figure finally appeared.

"Well, here I come." She raised her chin slightly, pretending to be natural, but the slight panic in her eyes betrayed her nervousness at the moment... The shy look was difficult to conceal, but she still tried to straighten her back.

Xiao San gave her the final verbal confirmation with an expressionless face, and she nodded continuously like a chick pecking at rice, her soft yellow hair swaying gently with her movements.

Finally, Xiao San slowly took out his phone from his pocket and asked, "Please add your contact information."

"Yes, yes." Karuizawa's voice trembled slightly. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket in a panic and unlocked the screen in a hurry.

After a while, Karuizawa's eyes suddenly fixed on the mobile phone screen, and she saw that a message had been received on the phone.

Takashi San said calmly, "This is the recording of our conversation just now. Although a contract signed by an underage high school student would be invalid, words alone are not enough to prove anything. Let this audio be considered as evidence of our agreement."

"I...I understand." Karuizawa Kei nodded confusedly.

Xiaosan's gaze was still fixed on her, and his deep eyes seemed to be thinking about something, which was difficult to understand.

Karuizawa felt a little shy when he looked at her, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she asked softly, "Is there anything else?"

"Are you hungry?" Xiaosan asked with concern.

Hearing this, Karuizawa instinctively shook her head, wanting to deny it, but her stomach rumbled uncontrollably, instantly making her feel incredibly embarrassed. "Damn it, why now..." She had originally planned to borrow money for food later, or return to the dorm to eat the snacks.

"I'll take you to dinner." After saying that, Xiaosan turned and walked forward.

Although Karuizawa's mind was still in a confused state, her hungry instinct prompted her to take a quick step and catch up, her steps a little hurried.

In the restaurant, Karuizawa looked at the sumptuous set meal that Kozo ordered for him and said in surprise, "So much, and all of this must be very expensive, right?"

"When you spent money before, you didn't think these were expensive, did you?" Xiaosan crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows.

Karuizawa was speechless, opening her mouth but unsure how to respond. Because... what the other person said was true. She had tried the 3,000-point set meal before, and while she felt a little bad at the time, the thought of the 100,000 points coming in next month made it seem like nothing. It was precisely because she'd spent so lavishly that first month that she was in this predicament.

"And you don't have to feel bad, you have to pay these back. I'm not asking you for them, I'm just lending them to you." Xiaosan said with a serious expression.

"I don't have the money to pay you back." Karuizawa mumbled incoherently with food in his mouth.

After that, Takashi San reached out and asked for Karuizawa's phone, then skillfully operated it and transferred 10000 points into it. "This is also my loan to you, use it sparingly. I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you." Takashi San said, and stood up to leave.

Miso soup and rice are 150 yuan, and ramen or rice bowls are 300-500 yuan per serving, which is the price in the school cafeteria. Bread can be bought for 100-200 yuan, and a large baguette is only 200 yuan. The dorms have refrigerators and kitchens, so you can cook your own meals.

Of course, it's impossible to eat food that makes you happy and satisfied; that would cost extra. Japanese people generally eat less, and girls eat even less... They are smaller, care more about men's opinions, and pay more attention to body shape, often dieting to lose weight.

Taking all of this into account, Xiaosan believed these points were sufficient: 1 was neither too much nor too little, enough for a student without housing, utilities, or other financial resources for a week or two. Giving too much at once might make a girl of her age unable to control her spending urges and start spending lavishly again. When her points ran out, he could simply lend her more.

Xiaosan had such a wishful thinking.

On the way back to the dorm, Karuizawa stared intently at the 10000 points displayed on her phone. She was in a trance, feeling that everything was so incredible. "And 3000 more points than before. Actually... there's such a good thing?" she muttered to herself.

Meanwhile, over at Hayasaka...

PM5: 50

In Miss Shinomiya Kaguya's spacious and luxurious residence, Hayasaka is busy like a spinning top...spinning, spinning, spinning (Ah Minos), in short, she is very busy because a VIP is visiting today.

The entire mansion was like a high-speed precision machine, and Hayasaka was the core operator. She shuttled through the rooms like a whirlwind, her steps hurried, her skirt flying... From the kitchen to the living room, from the garden to the guest room, Hayasaka's presence was everywhere.

One moment he directed the servants to arrange the flowers, and those flowers had to be placed just right...

After a while, he ran to check the placement of the tableware. Every plate and every wine glass had to be spotless and in the correct position...

There is no room for error.

This is what the top-tier service industry is like. Luxurious aristocrats require the meticulous service of these people. The placement of cups is as meticulous as the photolithography machine manufacturing chips, which can be said to be core technology.

Her forehead was covered in beads of sweat, which she had to wipe away promptly while constantly checking her appearance. While her body was busy, her mind dared not slack off even a little. She could not bear the wrath of any adult. Although Kaguya-san was her support, and her family, considering her the "face of the Shinomiya family," would not allow her to suffer humiliating punishment and would protect her slightly, she still had to be cautious.

During her busy time, Hayasaka's keen sixth sense detected a message on her phone. Taking advantage of a brief moment of free time, she quietly pulled her phone from her pocket and took a quick look. Sure enough, there was a new message on the screen.

Hayasaka quickly clicked on it and saw a photo sent by Sakura Airi. In the photo, Kozo and another girl were sitting together having a meal, and the atmosphere seemed quite harmonious... Kozo had a faint smile on his face, looking very comfortable, and the girl next to him also had a relaxed expression.

"Huh? This guy really has it easy." Hayasaka's mouth twitched unconsciously, and his hand unconsciously clenched the phone.

She replied with super fast speed.

Hasaka: Thank you, Airi-chan, I will thank you very much tomorrow~

Also comes with a cute emoticon pack of ?(ゝω???).

The screen went dark quickly after the message was sent. Although she felt a great deal of resentment in her heart, it still did not affect her work.

At that moment, the phone screen lit up again, its light glaring in the busy atmosphere. Without hesitation, Hayasaka quickly clicked on the message.

Yukinoshita Kozo: Miss Hayasaka, can you lend me some points?

Upon seeing this message, Hayasaka's anger instantly intensified like a volcano erupting, and her eyes almost spewed fire.

In her dorm room, Karuizawa, fresh from her shower, lazily sprawled on her bed in loose pajamas. Her hair was still slightly damp, a few strands clinging to her fair neck. The TV screen flickered, the program blaring, though she had no intention of watching it.

She hugged the soft pillow, her eyes a little dazed, "Could this guy like me?" As she spoke, a shy smile unconsciously appeared on her face.

The TV was reporting on the disappearance of a British diplomat in Japan...but Karuizawa Megumi still didn't care about it. Her mind was not on it at all. She was still immersed in her girlish fantasy with a sweet smile on her lips.

At the same time, in the dormitory, Xiaosan was concentrating on directing Altria's actions through his mobile phone.

After the previous battle, he realized that Artoria was too strong. At least compared to these parasitic beasts, Artoria's strength was beyond the norm, and he felt like a burden to her. This was the more efficient method he had come up with (Takashi San had read the book "Military Logistics / Advantages Are My Edition").

While directing Altria's actions in detail (moving the sword three centimeters to the right), he opened the system interface.

Side quest: ...(garbled) Horikita Suzune

mission target:

1. Let Horikita Suzune continue to feel frustrated and painful (completed)...

2. Removing Horikita Suzune's brother complex (unfinished)...

3. Make Horikita Manabu feel pain (unfinished)...

4. To be unlocked...

Mission Rewards: After completing each mission, you can try out the rewards for any mission in advance (failure or abandonment of the original mission will result in the reward being forfeited) or randomly draw an item from Doraemon's four-dimensional pocket...

Not long after, Altria's calm voice came from the phone, "Master, the enemy has been defeated. I will be back soon. Master, can you take a shower now?"

"Well, be careful on the road." Xiaosan responded (he didn't pay attention to the last sentence).

At this time, Xiaosan was still hesitating...whether to choose the former or the latter.

Chapter 44:043 Knight Kabuto's First Battle (I): Drained by Aho-King, but Can Still Fight

Choose the former: 114514 yen, the physique of the Yato clan, the Kabuto belt, the Mangekyō Sharingan (Kotoamatsukami)...

Choose the latter: Many of Doraemon's gadgets are incredibly powerful, and any of them could be considered a boss-level ability in any comic book other than Doraemon. After all, there's a saying that "comedy characters are invincible."

Just as Xiaosan was hesitating about choosing the system reward, his cell phone rang.

Xiao San glanced at the unfamiliar number on his phone. Although he didn't want to answer it, he still picked up the call, "Excuse me, is this..."

A woman's voice rang out from the other end of the line, with a hint of charm, "Do you remember me? Yukinoshita-kun."

PM11: 09

In Kaguya-san's boudoir, the dim light of the table lamp cast a hazy haze across the room. Hayasaka Ai sighed softly. Although she was accustomed to hearing Kaguya-san's complaints every day, she was truly exhausted today.

As time passed, Miss Kaguya's voice gradually became lower and her face gradually became calmer.

Hayasaka carefully pulled the quilt over Kaguya-san and gently covered her body. She looked at Kaguya-san quietly for a while, and after confirming that she was asleep, she slowly got up.

Her footsteps were very light, as if she was afraid to disturb the tranquility, and she walked towards the door step by step. After leaving Kaguya-san's room and gently closing the door, Hayasaka finally breathed a sigh of relief. "It's finally over."

The lights in the corridor were a little dim, which was the classic style of the villain Shinomiya family (Villain: Although I have money to pay the electricity bill, I just want to save electricity, I just want darkness (｀Δ?)ゞ). Hayasaka dragged her slightly tired body towards her room.

Back in her room, she collapsed on the bed, fell headfirst onto it, closed her eyes, and let the darkness and silence slowly swallow her. 'I wonder what that guy is doing. Is he sleeping?' The handsome face appeared in her mind.

Hayasaka slowly sat up, still a little sleepy... She walked into the bathroom, turned on the showerhead, and let the warm water pour out. She stood under the showerhead, rinsed herself clean, and then slowly stepped into the tub. The water enveloped her body. She leaned gently against the edge, closed her eyes, and her tired body felt relieved. This was a rare moment of relaxation for her in the day.

She reached for her phone from the shelf nearby and swiped her finger across the screen. The screen lit up, revealing the names in her address book. Her gaze was somewhat hollow, a hint of desolation in it. "Kaguya-san can talk to me about her stress, but who can I turn to for relief?"

At night, the sounds of battle continued inside the dormitory room. Faint moonlight filtered through the slits in the curtains, outlining a hazy silhouette. Altria sat on Takashi's shoulders, the pressure of the "vice" still intense.

At this moment, the phone rang suddenly, breaking the atmosphere in the room. Altria's movements suddenly paused, a look of surprise on her face.

Takashi San quickly picked up his phone and checked the caller ID. He then smiled apologetically at Altria, "Sorry, Altria, I'll take the call first. It might be something important."

Altria nodded slightly, her delicate hands resting on Takashi's broad chest.

As soon as Takashi San pressed the answer button, he asked calmly, "Miss Hayatake, what can I do for you?"

"Inspecting work." Miss Hayasaka's crisp voice came immediately from the other end of the phone. "What are you doing now? Are you sleeping? It doesn't sound like it."

Takashi San glanced at Altria guiltily, his eyes dodging, "Right, it should be time for bed soon... I guess."

The vise...tightened.

"Really? It seems like you're busy with something... You don't usually go to class, so you seem to be quite free. Are you busy meeting other girls?" Hayasaka said sarcastically on the other end of the phone, with a hint of suspicion in her tone.

Altria's gaze also became more profound, her pupils turning from green to yellow, making Xiao San feel even more uncomfortable. Although his body did not move, the feeling of squirming became stronger.

At the morning table, she had just finished taking a shower and was standing in front of the mirror, blowing her hair with a hair dryer.

"...No need to change places, let's meet there tomorrow." She said to the phone, her voice a little louder than the noise of the hair dryer.

Not long after, Hayasaka heard Kozo's somewhat rapid and disordered breathing from the other end of the phone, as if he was doing strenuous aerobic exercise... running?

"What's wrong with you?" Hayasaka asked in confusion, and unconsciously stopped blowing her hair.

"Nothing, Miss Zaoban. I have something to do here, so I'll hang up first." Xiaosan's voice sounded a little flustered, as if he was trying hard to hide something. After he finished speaking hastily, the phone made a "beep" sound as if it was hung up.
