What does it have to do with me if they hate vests?

If the remaining four home visits involve characters like this, it is hard to say whether they can be completed within a week.

"So you really don't know," seeing that Shiki's expression did not look like he was lying, Yamada patted his shoulder in a mature manner and said, "If Sakurajima Mai is not okay, then what type of actress do you like, Shiki?"

"Me?" Shiki was about to say something when he noticed that Yamada Fairy was looking at him with a little trepidation, so he smiled and said, "I don't know. I haven't thought about this question."

"Really, if you don't have your favorite stars, life will lose a lot of fun."

Yamada Fairy looked a little disappointed, but also seemed a little happy.

"If I must say, I've been following an idol group called U149 recently." Si Ji said seriously.

The girl quietly searched on her phone, but could not find any information about U149 - it couldn't be that strange activity that seemed to be attended by children - so she thought Si Ji was just talking nonsense again and didn't take it to heart anymore.

"I didn't expect to have the opportunity to observe up close..." Yamada Fairy said happily, but she soon realized that she had lost her composure, so she pretended to be calm and said, "Well, although there is still a gap between you and a great active light novel writer like me, you are good enough to be my material!"

"Okay." Since it would have to be done sooner or later, Si Ji had no intention of dragging his feet: "That's her, get ready, and we'll go."

Chapter 257 Fairness

Before leaving, Shiki sent an advance notice to Sakurajima Mai according to the email address recorded in the file, saying that he would go for a home visit.

But just like the previous teacher, there was no response.

Fortunately, Mai Sakurajima's filming work seems to have entered the final stage recently. She has been staying in Tokyo during this period, which provides great convenience for home visits. Otherwise, he would have to travel all the way to Kagoshima with the fairy.

Soon the two arrived at Sakurajima Mai's temporary residence during this period.

"Eh... What a surprise. I thought such a famous person must live in a big villa."

Although this is also a very luxurious, high-end large-floor apartment, Fairy Yamada still showed a surprised expression.

"From the tax records, he should have a villa. The reason he lives in such a place is probably because he doesn't want to be disturbed."

Said Four Seasons.

"Tax records?" Yamada was surprised. "Is there such a thing in the school's documents?"

"No, I just did a little research before I left."

Four Seasons replied disapprovingly.

In fact, Miss Sakurajima Mai seemed to have thought about a similar situation from the beginning, so the address she left at the school was a rather remote small villa, the kind that she probably wouldn't be able to visit for several years.

The teacher before must have been deceived by the records left by the other party. He ran back and forth to the villa several times but didn't meet anyone. He was busy in vain.

Before setting off, Si Ji used Maple Leaf Technology's latest big data to collect information about the other party's whereabouts, and followed the clues to eliminate the possibility of other places where the other party might live, and finally locked on this place.

I can only say that big data is so terrifying.

Shiki knocked on the door. "Is Sakurajima-san here? Sakurajima-san~ We are your seniors in charge of home visits. If you still don't open the door, the next person to come will be the student council~"

It is true that in a sense he was representing the student union to make the home visit, but there was no need to be so clear. Sometimes this kind of vagueness can have a better effect by giving the other party a sense of pressure that "the next one will be even worse."

After waiting for half a minute and still seeing no movement behind the door, Shiki smiled confidently and said, "Okay, it looks like Sakurajima-san isn't home. Let's go to the next person's house... Don't worry, just report Sakurajima-san's situation directly to the student council. This year's student council is famous for its unexpected and outstanding actions. Maybe they'll block the other party's filming site next time."

The Yamada fairy looked at Shiki strangely as he showed no sign of leaving. Just when he was about to ask something, the door suddenly opened.

Behind the door was a girl with long black hair and an unhappy look on her face. At first glance, her temperament seemed to be somewhere between Yukinoshita Yukino and Kasumigaoka Utaha - of course, Shiki might have had such an idea because of the size of her breasts - but if you looked more closely, you would feel that she was warmer than Yukinoshita Yukino, and a little more immature and pure than Kasumigaoka Utaha.

As for her appearance, it is naturally quite outstanding, otherwise it would be impossible for her to be active from a child star and still be quite popular until now.

Even though Si Ji had no interest in the idol stars of this world and never took the initiative to learn about them, when he saw the other person, the thought "Ah, isn't this the face I often saw on TV some time ago" flashed through his mind, but he hid his thoughts very well and did not show it on his face.

After a brief moment of shock, the Yamada Fairy looked at Shiki with admiration.

She had no idea that Sakurajima Mai had actually been hiding behind the door, and Shiki not only discovered this, but also tricked the door open with just one sentence.

Well, actually, Shiki didn't notice it either, he just asked his double to go through the wall and take a look. If the target really didn't notice them for various reasons, he would ask his double to unlock the door from the inside, and then he would go in without asking for permission, saying "the other party knew there was a home visit so they didn't lock the door."

At that time, the notice he sent to the other party before leaving could serve as the best evidence for this argument.

"Please come in," the black straight-haired girl, or rather Sakurajima Mai, said in a deep voice, "Just finish the home visit quickly, and then this harassment can end, right?"

"Harassment... I really hope you can use a milder word. After all, this is also a school mission..."

Four Seasons complained disapprovingly.

The luxury apartment was extremely tidy and clean, or rather too clean. There was no breath of life in it at all. It was like a fully furnished apartment built specifically for display, completely lifeless.

"Sorry, we're out of drinks. Please make do with what you have."

Mai Sakurajima presented two glasses of boiled water to Shiki and Yamada the Fairy who were sitting on the sofa.

Although her attitude was a little cold, the girl was surprisingly polite. Should we say that she has good upbringing, or is she just a tsundere who has simply retired from the social world?

Si Ji drank the tasteless boiled water while thinking aimlessly in his mind.

By the way, what the other party said about there being no drinks was true. When passing by the kitchen just now, Si Ji curiously used a stand-in to look at the refrigerator, only to find that it was so empty that if a mouse got in, it would have to cry and pay two hundred yuan.

"So can we start the home visit now?" Putting down the cup, Si Ji took out a notebook and a black fountain pen and asked seriously.

"Well, whatever."

Mai Sakurajima seemed a little annoyed by this kind of interview-like behavior and spoke dejectedly.

"[Sakurajima-san… said she was very casual during the home visit]"

The four seasons are faithfully recorded.

Mai Sakurajima: “?”

"Don't worry about it, let's continue." Shiki's expression was so serious that it made people feel that what he just heard was just an auditory hallucination. He asked, "First of all, Sakurajima-san has hardly been to school since the beginning of the school year. Do you have a clear understanding of your current situation?"

"It's just that the previous orders I took haven't been completed yet. I have already announced my retirement. After everything is over, I will return to school and study hard." Sakurajima Mai answered very formally.

"[Sakurajima-san said that he didn't study hard enough...]"

"No, wait a moment!" The black-haired girl glared at Si Ji with a bad look in her eyes: "Record it carefully for me!"

"[Sakurajima-san is trying to interfere with... the fairness of the records...]"

"Where is the fairness of your record?"

"That's how interviews work," Si Ji said seriously, "You always have to add some artistic touches to the content of the interview."

"This is just artistic embellishment. There is no content at all!"

Chapter 258: Failed Home Visit

"Then ask something more constructive."

Shiki glanced at Mai Sakurajima who was muttering in dissatisfaction, "Is home visit so weird?" and said, "Are you planning to start studying seriously after finishing your current job?"

"That's the plan for now." Seeing that Shiki's tone seemed a little more serious, Sakurajima Mai instantly switched to work mode and spoke in a businesslike tone as if facing a reporter.

"That's such a waste!"

Yamada Fairy suddenly jumped up: "Mai-chan obviously has such great acting skills, so she should show the attitude of a super-great actor and give a good whip to this era of idols who can appear on the screen purely by relying on their looks. Use your power to kick the asses of the capitalists hard, so that everyone can have a clear comparison and see the ugliness of those guys!"

"To you!"

Shiki tapped Yamada Fairy's forehead expressionlessly: "Don't impose your expectations on others."

Mai Sakurajima didn't say anything, but her expression was a little gloomy.

Obviously, she could see that Yamada Fairy had no ill intentions, but simply liked her image on the screen, so she had no intention of blaming the other party. It was just that Sakurajima Mai was a little resistant to the girl's words.

Si Ji glanced at her and vaguely sensed something.

"But to be honest, I'm also a fan of Sakurajima-san. When I watched Sakurajima-san's performances on TV, I really didn't tell that you were tired of performing." So he said nonchalantly, "I always feel that you actually like your job as an actor. Is this also acting? It's really amazing."

The Yamada Fairy glanced at Shiki curiously.

She remembered that before the home visit, Shiki seemed to have no impression of Mai Sakurajima at all, let alone being a fan of her.

However, the girl knew that Si Ji probably had his own reasons for saying that, so she didn't rush to complain and expose him.

A look of desolation flashed across Mai Sakurajima's face, and then she said in an elegant but unquestionable tone: "That's the truth. I'm tired of the entertainment industry, so I plan to retire—"

"I see. I thought something happened that made you feel uncomfortable, such as your agent took some jobs you hated against your will, so you felt disgusted and decided to quit the industry."

Four Seasons said casually.

"That's impossible. I remember that Mai-chan's agent seemed to be her mother. She wouldn't do such a thing..." Yamada Fairy couldn't help but retort.

But she couldn't finish her words, and instead, together with Shiki, she looked at Sakurajima Mai's slightly distorted expression in surprise.

"Could it be," Si Ji was also a little surprised: "Is it right?"

"That's enough. If home visits mean asking these boring questions, then I refuse to answer them!"

Sakurajima Mai stood up, her expression clearly showing some uncontrollable excitement: "I still have work to do, please leave as soon as possible, I'm sorry I can't see you off."

"Oops..."

The Yamada Fairy scratched his head in distress and looked at Shiki with an expression that said "I think I messed up."

But Four Seasons didn't care about it.

The moment I met the other party and completed the conversation, the conditions for the home visit had been met, and finding out the approximate reason for the other party's retirement was an unexpected surprise.

Shiki is not a Zashiki-warashi and it is impossible for him to help everyone. The reason why he organized the whole event of the Toyotsu Festival was not only because he was in the mood, but also because Nagisa Furukawa was able to communicate normally, tell her about her troubles, and actively cooperate with the assistance on his side. At this time, Mai Sakurajima had clearly expressed her refusal to communicate, so Shiki naturally had no intention of trying to please someone he didn't like - even if the other party's system marked that he could become a new tenant.

He is no longer the man who was so short of influence points that he had to run around everywhere, unwilling to let go of even the smallest profit.

"In that case, let's take our leave."

Shiki stood up, without any reluctance. He hesitated for a moment before leaving, but left a last bit of sympathy: "If you have any difficulties after returning to school, you can come to the Service Department for help. We are still a club that focuses on solving students' problems."

"Service Club?" Sakurajima Mai asked doubtfully, "Aren't you from the Student Council?"

Shiki didn't answer, but just smiled and left with the Yamada Fairy.

After leaving the luxurious apartment, Yamada Fairy asked curiously, "Is this the end?"

"What?" Si Ji, who was thinking about something, couldn't react.

"I thought you would find a way to help her," the fairy said happily, "After all, Mai-chan is also a cute girl."

"You're saying this as if I'm going to help just because she's a cute girl..."

Shiki sighed: "And don't you think too highly of me? I'm not omnipotent."

"So there's no way you can help Mai-chan?"

"Well...there is actually a way."

If this is only a temporary solution, then all they need to do is let Mengya Family drive Sakurajima Mai's studio into bankruptcy, and then take over Sakurajima Mai. Then they can sign an agreement letting the other party choose all the work, which will ease the conflict between the other party and the agent a lot.

However, Shiki feels that the main problem with Sakurajima Mai is that it was her mother who did such a thing, which caused her to distrust the entire entertainment industry and even the wider area.

If you want to cure it completely, besides spending a long time repairing the rift in trust and letting her get used to being stared at by others again, you probably have to use drastic measures to make the other person break down and then stand up again, and have someone you can absolutely trust and even rely on.

Honestly speaking, both methods are quite troublesome. If the latter deliberately creates that situation and is discovered by the other party, her distrust of the people around her will probably become even more serious. Therefore, Si Ji does not want to spend so much time and energy doing these thankless tasks.

Anyway, it's not a big deal for a young actress to retire from the screen, and her mental condition is relatively stable. Even if you ignore her, she will be able to get over it sooner or later.

"It's just that her purity is too low, so I have no intention of helping!" He said confidently.

"Really? Then let's just take it as that."

The Yamada fairy said with a smile.

She knew Si Ji very well and knew that this guy was always tough on the outside but soft on the inside. If he really had no intention of helping, then why would he give her the last straw and remind her to go to the Service Club if she encountered any difficulties?

But if I point it out, Shiki will definitely not admit it, so Yamada Fairy didn't intend to reveal this. She just said with some regret: "It's just a pity that I can't see her on TV anymore. I quite like Mai-chan~"

"As a way to cheer you up, how about you order some food for dinner tonight?"

"I want to eat boiled cabbage!"

"That requires cooking with soup stock, and it can't be made in a short time."

"Then Buddha jumps over the wall!"

"... Could you please, Miss Emily, order something that can be prepared before dinner time?"

Chapter 259 Puberty Syndrome

After dreaming that he almost drowned in the broth of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, Si Ji woke up in a room where the fragrance had not yet dissipated.

I have to say that having a high level of cooking skills is not always a good thing. It is said that the lingering sound of food lingers in the air for three days, but the quick-made version of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that I improved yesterday was too successful, resulting in the fragrance lingering for a long time, which was quite distressing.
