The Stand in the Everyday World

"So you're saying you're stupid for not objecting?"

"Hmph, even if I object, you guys, Fujii-senpai, will still think I'm an idiot." Koga Tomoe complained like a spoiled child, "But I'm just a country girl, not as strong as you and Yukinoshita-senpai. What else can I do if I don't do this? I'm just...ah, Reina's text message!"

Feeling the vibration of her phone, Koga Tomoe changed her state in a second, immediately took out her phone and replied attentively.

Yukinoshita Yukino wanted to say something, but seeing how focused Koga Tomoe was, she decided to wait a moment.

Then several minutes passed.

"Koga-san, this is very rude of you." Yukinoshita Yukino said the truth, "Can you please stop and finish your conversation with us before replying?"

"I, I know, but I have to reply to Reina's text message quickly, right away, right away!"

Looking at Koga Tomoe's cautious look, Yukinoshita Yukino confirmed: As expected, that person is not a friend at all, but just a fake.

Shunsuke Fujii took the phone directly from Tomoe Koga's hand.

"Wait--senpai, what are you doing!?"

"You will understand how powerful the senior is."

"It doesn't make any sense. Give my phone back to me quickly. I've read what Reina just said!" Koga Tomoe said in panic.

This look made Yuigahama Yui, who was in the same position in the small group, a little bit uncomfortable. She persuaded: "Xiaopeng, it's just a moment, there's no need to rush to reply."

If she put herself in Yumiko's shoes, she felt that she would definitely not be angry about this.

"I thought Yuigahama-senpai was the only one who could understand me." Koga Tomoe looked at Yuigahama Yui with a sad look as if her trust had been betrayed.

"Huh, huh?"

"But think about it, I don't have big breasts like Yuigahama-senpai, and I'm short and not cute, so you don't have to try hard to please others like me." Koga Tomoe began to mutter.

"But Koga, you have a nice butt." Shunsuke Fujii, who was typing, replied.

"Pervert senior, stop talking about this!"

Yukinoshita Yukino stared at Fujii Shunsuke with cold eyes: "Fujii Mushi, are you sexually harassing me?"

"No, I'm kidding..."

Yuigahama Yui placed her hands on her chest and shifted her butt on the chair: "Do you like butts more than breasts, Xiaojun?"

Yukinoshita Yukino pricked up her ears quietly.

"So, I'm just joking." Fujii Shunsuke looked at Koga Tomoe, "I'm sorry, Koga, I won't talk about your ass anymore."

"Ah...Ah, no, no need to be so formal."

Koga Tomoe was stunned for a moment, then waved her hands repeatedly.

274. On the eve of the end of reincarnation

"Oh? As expected, Koga, you are still very confident about your butt." Fujii Shunsuke leaned close to Koga Tomoe's ear and whispered, "If you are shy, don't worry, I will only talk about it when we are alone in the future."

"Senior!"

"Hahahahaha."

Fujii Shunsuke smiled and dodged Koga Tomoe's angry little fist.

After a while, knowing that the opportunity had been missed, Koga Tomoe lay down on the table dejectedly: "Okay, okay, I know, I haven't read or replied to Reina's message for such a long time, it's too late to say anything more, Yukinoshita-senpai, now I'll—"

“I have read it but I have not replied!!!”

Yuigahama Yui stood up with a "bang" and said loudly.

Unlike China's chat software, Sakurajima's chat software has a very strange operation, that is, if you view the message someone sent to you, then the display on the other side will show you "read".

And since you have already “read” the message, it would be unreasonable for you not to reply. When encountering some unpleasant topics, you can still make excuses such as “I was busy”, “I was taking a shower”, “I didn’t check my phone” in China; but in Sakurajima, there are no excuses. If you don’t reply to the message after it has been “read”, others will inevitably think that this person is too arrogant.

And if something happens again, it will be easy to end the friendship and no one will play games with him anymore.

What’s even more amazing is that even though this feature has been criticized in Sakurajima, the operation has not changed it, which is also very interesting.

However, it is precisely because of such great pressure that, except for groups such as students who are addicted to social software, everyone else has gradually developed the habit of deliberately waiting for a long time before replying even if they have read the message. Gradually, more and more people like this have emerged, and not replying after reading the message is no longer such a serious matter.

Well, except for student groups.

At least among students, it's easy to lose friends if you do this, so Yuigahama Yui is so nervous.

"Yes, yes." Koga Tomoe was startled and stammered.

"That won't do, Xiaojun, quickly return the phone to Xiaopeng. Not replying to a message after reading it is a very bad thing that could end a friendship!"

"No, Yuigahama-san, you're exaggerating."

"Xukino, this kind of thing is just so exaggerated!"

Whether it is text messages or emails, although it was initially decided because people felt it "felt good", it has unknowingly become a rule and a shackle that tortures oneself.

And since it has become a rule, then we must act according to the rule. If we don't follow the rule, we will be kicked out of the circle and become an outlier.

Yukinoshita Yukino, who is a loner, has no scruples, but neither Yuigahama Yui nor Koga Tomoe are that kind of people, so they have to abide by the rules.

"Don't worry, I've already explained it to the other side."

At this time, Fujii Shunsuke shook his mobile phone to reassure Yuigahama Yui, and then turned the phone screen to them. There was a message he had just sent on it, which said that there was an urgent matter here, so they didn't want to talk for now. Bye~bye~, Rena and everyone.

What Xiangzhi Rena really thinks is unknown, but at least in the text messages, everyone said "it's okay" and "hurry up and get busy" and other considerate words.

"Look, Koga, it's actually not that scary to refuse."

Shunsuke Fujii said after returning the phone to Tomoe Koga.

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned beautifully: "Fujii-san, it is inappropriate for you to do this."

Without Yukino Yukinoshita reminding him, Fujii Shunsuke certainly knew that what he did was wrong. It seemed fine now, but what if something went wrong? How would he solve it then?

But unlike Yukinoshita Yukino, Fujii Shunsuke doesn't care at all whether anything will go wrong.

It’s not that he doesn’t care about Koga Tomoe, but there is really no need for him to worry about this matter.

Koga Tomoe doesn't want Maezawa Yosuke to confess to her. In the final analysis, she just doesn't want to ruin her relationship with Kashiba Rena and be ostracized. Maezawa Yosuke is just a fuse.

So as long as Koga Tomoe feels that her relationship with Kashiba Rena is in danger, there is no need to wait for Maezawa Yosuke to confess. Maybe today is the last day in this world, and waking up tomorrow will be a new reincarnation. So Fujii Shunsuke is not panicked at all, and whether Kashiba Rena is indifferent or angry, it will not affect the final result in the slightest.

Even in the darkness of his heart, Fujii Shunsuke sometimes had the dark thought of deliberately causing trouble and letting Koga Tomoe reincarnate a few more times, but he quickly suppressed it every time.

Koga Tomoe even called the Service Club herself. Fujii Shunsuke would not do such a thing. Even if the problem was not solved this time, it should be solved perfectly next time.

This journey was unexpectedly short. Originally, Fujii Shunsuke was thinking of letting Koga Tomoe try it out a dozen times before showing up, but he didn't expect that she would come to him on her own.

After Koga Tomoe took back her phone and put it on silent mode, the four of them finally began a formal discussion.

Yukinoshita Yukino's advice was correct and simple: "Koga-san, you don't have to do anything. When Maezawa Yosuke confesses to you, just reject him openly. Then you can explain the truth to Kashiba Rena. If she still isolates you like this, it's better not to make friends with her. You can't make true friends by blindly catering to her."

"But if that's the case, Xiaopeng will probably be isolated and will be alone in class from now on." Yuigahama Yui rarely disagreed with Yukinoshita Yukino's idea.

"There's nothing wrong with being alone." The solitary master's expression remained unchanged. "This will help train a person better and increase her strength. It will be good for Koga's future. This is the purpose of our service club."

"But Koga's commission wasn't for us to train her." Fujii Shunsuke said something fair, "She obviously just wants to maintain her relationship with Kashiba Reina. Isn't your suggestion going in the exact opposite direction, Yukinoshita?"

Koga Tomoe nodded weakly: "It's fine with Maezawa-senpai, as long as Reina doesn't exclude me."

Yuigahama Yui suddenly thought of something and slammed her palm hard: "In that case, Xiaopeng, just pretend to be a rotten girl!"

"?"

"A fujoshi won't be interested in boys. Then, Xiaopeng, you can pair Maezawa-senpai with another boy. In this way, Maezawa-senpai might not confess to you!" Yuigahama Yui proudly put forward her suggestion.

Fujii Shunsuke was speechless: "Yui, are you using Ebina Hime as an example? But even so, Tobe likes her."

"Ehhhhhhhh——! Tobe likes Ebina?!"

275. Honey trap, beauty trap, shield and dirty tricks

"Don't you see?"

"Not at all! The one who should be studied is Xiaojun. How did you figure that out?"

"You can tell by looking at how Tobe keeps coming to you guys even when Hayama isn't around. After all, Ebina is a pretty girl even if she doesn't talk."

"But it could also be Yumiko."

"Do you think Tobu has the guts to compete with Ye Shan?"

"That's true...but couldn't it be me? Am I not considered a beautiful girl?!"

"Of course you are the same, Yui, so Tobu certainly doesn't have the guts to list you as a target."

Yuigahama Yui was stunned for a moment, then she realized that Fujii Shunsuke was praising her as a beautiful girl on the same level as Miura Yumiko. She couldn't help but smile foolishly, and her drooping eyes made her face look even more childish. She scratched her head and smiled like a middle school student, saying innocently: "Hey, hehehe, Xiaojun, you're exaggerating."

"No, Yui, you may not know that your competitiveness among boys is actually-"

"Ahem, let's get back to the topic."

Seeing that the two of them quickly started to go off topic and even became happier and happier as they talked, Yukinoshita Yukino coughed, trying to bring the topic back.

Yuigahama Yui hurriedly sat up straight, but she was quite confident in her plan: "But I really think this is a good idea. As long as I say that I am a fujoshi who is not interested in boys, even if Maezawa-senpai wants to confess to Xiaopeng, Reina-chan will not be so sensitive."

"But I'm not a fujoshi. Reina and the others know that. Isn't it a bit too late to pretend now?"

"Well, Xiaopeng, do you know when Maezawa-senpai is going to confess to you? Is it tomorrow, or is he just letting you know that he likes you, and then you know about it, so you have to wait a long time to confess."

Koga Tomoe thought for a moment and said, "After school in four days."

This subtle timing made Yuigahama Yui stunned. If it wasn’t tomorrow, why would she know about it so many days in advance? Is it a festival four days later?

"But it's only been four days. It's really hard to change other people's impression of you, Xiaopeng. But if I ask Ebina--"

"Yuigahama-senpai, even if I could, I wouldn't want to do this. It's so disgusting to fantasize about boys and boys..."

Koga Tomoe said that as a country girl, she does not have such avant-garde XP.

"Is that so?" Yuigahama Yui looked very regretful, and then the bun on her head jumped again, "Why don't you just start to match Reina-chan and Maezawa-senpai now!"

"If that's the case, wouldn't it be even more incredible when Maezawa-senpai confesses his love to me?"

Tuanzi instantly became depressed again: "That's right......"

Yukinoshita Yukino then raised the point: "How about having a frank talk with Kashiba Reina? Maybe you can become true friends."

Koga Tomoe responded with an awkward but polite smile.

If this could solve the problem, she wouldn't have come to the Service Club. To some extent, this is a desperate measure.

The service department seemed to have encountered problems when it first opened.

Seeing Shunsuke Fujii sitting aside drinking tea and watching the show, Yukinoshita Yukino turned her gaze to him and asked, "Fujii, do you have any ideas?"

Fujii Shunsuke was so bored that he propped up his chin with one hand. He originally didn't want to participate, but since Yukinoshita Yukino asked, he had to say: "Either make Maezawa Yosuke lose interest in Koga Tomoe, or make Kashiba Rena lose interest in Maezawa Yosuke. It's that simple. Yui's method just now is actually one of them. In short, we just pick a direction and work hard towards it."

"Then is there a specific course of action?" Yukinoshita Yukino continued to ask.

"The former also has two directions. One is to make Maezawa Yosuke like another girl or have a girlfriend, so that he loses interest in Koga. Otherwise, he will be two-timing and socially dead.

The second direction is that if you, Koga, find a boyfriend before he confesses his love to you, then Maezawa Yosuke will naturally not confess his love to you again, or he will be trying to steal someone else's girl. Once you do this, even Kashiba Reina will protect you and denounce him."

"The same goes for the latter. One is to make Kashiba Reina like another boy, but considering that there are only four days, I guess there is no time for Kashiba Reina to like someone else, so you can consider digging up Maezawa Yosuke's dark history to make her disillusioned. In this way, even if Maezawa Yosuke confesses to you, Koga, it will be okay."

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded and concluded, "So, it's the beauty trap, the handsome man trap, the shield, and the dirty trick, right?"

"......Why do I make it seem like I'm a bad person when I give you this summary, Yukinoshita?" Fujii Shunsuke said helplessly.

"I just repeated what you said."

Yuigahama Yui said cautiously: "I don't want to do any of these plans. The beauty trap and the beauty trap are all deceiving the relationship between Maezawa-senpai and Reina-chan."

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded and said, "Besides, it's a bit too much to dig up other people's dark history just because of this incident. So Fujii-kun, just like you pretended to be the boyfriend of the head of the Momobami family, why don't you pretend to be the boyfriend of Koga-san? You have a lot of experience, don't you?"

There was some emotion in Yukinoshita Yukino's words, which surprised Yuigahama Yui: "Xiaojun is actually someone else's boyfriend!?"

Shunsuke Fujii quickly explained: "I told you it was fake. I didn't want to do this, but she gave me too much."

Yukinoshita Yukino cast a look of contempt and thought to herself: This is too much...how much is it exactly?

Koga Tomoe's eyes lit up, and she quickly said, "In that case, then you can be my man--"
