Am I a bad person? They all want to kill me?

"Oh? Is that so?"

The middle-aged boss was a little surprised. He turned his head slightly and looked at Saki Kawasaki for confirmation.

"Ah~~"

Kawasaki Saki sighed softly and said helplessly: "It is true, he and I... are old classmates."

For the sake of her job, Saki Kawasaki can only cooperate with Lin Qing'an.

After all...she came here to work, concealed her real age, and lied that she was an adult, otherwise how could such a place allow a minor to work here.

"So that's it..."

Seeing this was the case, the middle-aged boss felt relieved.

"Na~"

Lin Qingan raised his hand and said with a gentle smile: "Boss, can I borrow Xiao Shaxi for a while? I promise it will only be for a while and will definitely not delay your business."

The middle-aged boss smiled and said, "It's not up to me to decide whether to lend it or not. You have to ask Kawasaki herself. If she agrees, you can talk about anything."

Lin Qingan looked at Kawasaki Saki and said with a smile: "Little Saki, what do you say?"

"Don't call me that weird name!"

Saki Kawasaki first refuted Lin Qing'an with an awkward look on her face, and then looked at the middle-aged boss with some hesitation.

"boss......"

"Go ahead. It's not busy now anyway." The middle-aged boss said with a smile.

It is normal for young people to have some emotional entanglements, and he understands it very well.

"Thank you."

After Kawasaki Saki expressed her thanks sincerely, she couldn't help but glare at Lin Qing'an who was smiling beside her.

109. "Can you do whatever you want if you have something on me?"

Lin Qing'an didn't care and said with an unchanged smile.

"In addition to the 'Sea Breeze', let's have another glass of 'Blue Hawaii'. You prepare it first. I'll wait for you over there."

After saying that, Lin Qing'an stood up and left the bar, chose a booth by the window, and sat down by himself.

Feeling annoyed, Saki Kawasaki originally wanted to follow him directly, but after thinking about it, she patiently prepared the "Sea Breeze" and "Blue Hawaii" ordered by Lin Qing'an.

As a bartender, she gets a commission for every glass of wine she sells. It would be a waste not to make money.

Soon, Saki Kawasaki came to the booth where Lin Qing'an was, holding two cocktails, one red and one blue.

With a cold face, she placed two glasses of cocktails in front of Lin Qing'an, then sat down opposite Lin Qing'an with an expressionless face.

"This drink is from me."

Lin Qing'an slowly pushed the glass of blue cocktail in front of Saki Kawasaki.

"As 'adults', we can drink now, can't we?"

Lin Qing'an picked up his "Sea Breeze" and gestured slightly to Kawasaki Saki.

"Tsk~"

Saki Kawasaki crossed her arms over her chest, sighed softly, and said with some dissatisfaction.

"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have something on me."

"Do whatever you want?"

Lin Qing'an raised his eyebrows slightly, not knowing what he was thinking of, and a hint of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

After a moment, he came back to his senses, smiled subtly, and took a sip of "Sea Breeze" to moisten his slightly dry mouth and tongue.

"The craftsmanship is good."

Lin Qing'an put down his wine glass, first praised Saki Kawasaki's craftsmanship, and then talked about today's business.

"Kawasaki-san, I came to you today not to threaten you, but..."

Lin Qing'an looked at Kawasaki Saki, his expression becoming more gentle, "I'm here to invite you to join the service club."

"Huh?! What did you say?!"

"I'm here to invite you to join the service department." Lin Qing'an repeated patiently.

"I heard you! I mean why did you invite me?!"

Saki Kawasaki frowned, totally unable to understand what Lin Qing'an was planning.

She knew about the Ministry.

It is a one-person club established by the second daughter of the Yukinoshita family using her privileges.

Oh no ~ it used to be a one-person club, but not anymore.

She had heard the girls in her class mention not long ago that the classmate Lin in front of her had joined the service club some time ago.

According to rumors from girls in the class, the relationship between this Hayashi and that Yukinoshita seems to be somewhat ambiguous.

Single men and women gathered in the club room as soon as school was over, and no one knew what they were doing.

"Because our club is still short of one person, and I think you, Kawasaki-san, are very suitable to join us."

Lin Qingan explained gently.

Before the May Day holiday, he promised Yukinoshita that he would find a second member.

At that time, he already had three candidates in mind, Saki Kawasaki, Yuigahama Yui, and Isshi Iroha.

From his point of view, among these three people, Saki Kawasaki is the easiest to control...oh no, the easiest to recruit.

Next is Yuigahama Yui, and lastly, Isshiki Iroha.

In order from easy to difficult, he naturally came to Saki Kawasaki first.

"Lack of people?"

Kawasaki Saki seemed to have heard a joke, "With the daughter of the Yukinoshita family here, how can you be short of people?"

Hearing the subtle malice hidden in Kawasaki Saki's words, Lin Qing'an tapped the table twice with his fingertips and said with a smile.

"Kawasaki, I don't like to discipline people, but I still want to remind you that it's okay to hate the rich, but please don't let it affect your mentality and judgment."

"..."

Maybe it was because his hatred of the rich was exposed, or maybe it was because he realized that there was indeed something wrong with his mentality.

Saki Kawasaki looked a little unnatural. She avoided Lin Qing'an's gaze and turned to look out the window.

Although Chiba is quiet in the early morning, it is not cold. The hazy neon lights make the whole city covered with a veil that seems real and illusory.

Through the veil, Saki Kawasaki subconsciously searched for her home.

It’s a pity that the lights in the residential area where her home was located were turned off early, and the few street lamps could not compete with the hazy neon lights, so it was naturally difficult to find.

"Mr. Kawasaki, why are you working part-time?" Lin Qing'an asked softly.

"Of course it's for money..." Kawasaki Sha looked towards the window and muttered softly.

"For the money..."

Lin Qingan shook his head slightly, "This answer is too general, or too broad to be an answer."

As he spoke, Lin Qing'an looked at Saki Kawasaki and said calmly.

"Kawasaki-san, if I'm not mistaken, you're working part-time to earn money for your own tutoring, right?"

"kindness?!!"

Saki Kawasaki was slightly startled and subconsciously met Lin Qing'an's eyes.

"Mr. Kawasaki, are you going to ask me why I know that?" Lin Qing'an put on his smile again.

"..." Saki Kawasaki stared at Lin Qing'an intently, as if waiting for his answer.

"It's simple..."

Lin Qingan smiled and explained: "There are generally three reasons why high school students work part-time."

"One, to have something I want, two, to reduce the burden on my family, three, for my dream."

"From what I've observed, Kawasaki-san is basically without makeup, and doesn't wear too many accessories. You're not materialistic, so the first reason is less likely."

"As for the dream..."

Lin Qingan paused and said, "It may be a bit rude to say this, but dreams are always a luxury. People who dare to dream have more or less the temperament and characteristics of a 'dream chaser', but I don't see those things in you, Kawasaki."

"So, comprehensively speaking, the second possibility is the most likely."

"And the analysis is very simple at this point."

"If you just want to earn some living expenses, Kawasaki-san, you don't have to hide your age and work in a place like this."

"You're here, which means you need a lot of money."

"In order to reduce the burden on my family, which is not a small amount, at this point, all I can think of is tuition and tutoring fees."

"Choose one from the other. I choose the latter."

"After all... our school is a public high school, and the tuition is not expensive. It is not a problem for ordinary families to afford it. And if it is really difficult, I remember that our school can apply for tuition reduction."

“So, tuition is slightly less likely.”

Lin Qing'an's explanation sounded very logical, but in fact... he didn't rely on reasoning.

In the first simulation, he had already thoroughly understood Saki Kawasaki's abilities.

At this moment, it is just a matter of shooting the arrow first and then drawing the target.

110. "After-school tutoring.avi"

"..."

After listening to Lin Qing'an's reasoning, Kawasaki Saki was silent for a moment and said expressionlessly.

"Yes, you are right. I did come here to work for tuition fees, but what does this have to do with what you said?"

Lin Qing'an did not answer directly, he asked with a smile.

"Kawasaki-san, do you know who is the top student in our second year of high school?"

"Yukinoshita Yukino, right?"

As a public high school, Sobu High School does not publish grades. Grades and rankings are sent to students privately.

But this does not affect these students from knowing who is the top student in their grade. After all, Sobu High School is so small, and there will always be some rumors coming out from various angles.

"Yes, it's her. Then do you know who is the second in the grade?" Lin Qing'an continued to ask.

"Second in grade..."

Saki Kawasaki frowned and fell into deep thought.

The first one is Yukinoshita, and the third one is Hayato Hayama from the same class. These two people are often mentioned in the class, and she remembered them after hearing them so many times.

But who is the second one...No one in the class seems to have mentioned it...

"It's me~" Lin Qing'an said with a smile.

"you......"

Saki Kawasaki was slightly stunned.
