Ten or so minutes later, in front of Seifu Academy.
After telling the driver to remember to pick him up in the evening, Shiroko stepped toward the academy.
The security guards at the gate didn't dare hesitate upon seeing Shiroko, hurriedly opening the main doors.
Who in the entirety of Seifu Academy didn't recognize the eldest young master of the Hanyu Group?
Stop him? That would be pure suicide!
Giving a slight nod of acknowledgment, Shiroko stepped into a Japanese school campus for the first time in his life.
As it happened, he arrived right during the break after the first period.
The entire campus was filled with girls wearing short JK skirts, their legs so pale they practically reflected light, radiating a thick aura of youth.
It could only be said that there were no ugly girls in Japanese anime. Any random girl he saw along the way would have been at least the class beauty in his previous life.
But here, they were just ordinary students.
While admiring the beautiful scenery, Shiroko followed his memories toward Class 3-A.
However, just as he passed by a dense grove of trees, he suddenly heard some rustling sounds.
Out of curiosity, he focused his attention slightly.
Then...
'Fuck, as expected of a corrupted anime world, they won't even let this little bit of time go to waste!'
Thinking this, Shiroko gradually slowed his pace.
He stepped behind a tree, watched with a critical eye for a moment, and then quietly slipped away.
'The female lead looks decent, but she falls far short compared to Mitsuko. There's absolutely no comparison; how boring.'
A few minutes later, Shiroko slowly walked into the classroom.
Following his memories, he successfully found his seat.
Back row, next to the window—the king's domain!
And right beside that domain sat a girl with a beautiful and gentle face.
The girl wore a red sailor uniform top, adorned with a bright yellow bow at the collar.
On her lower half, she wore a plaid JK miniskirt, paired with white thigh-high socks and black leather shoes.
Right at that moment, a gentle breeze swept past, fluttering the girl's long brown hair.
At that moment, a flash of awe appeared in Shiroko's eyes.
He could only admit that she was indeed a heroine; she was an absolute heartbreaker!
And the instant he saw her, another line appeared on the quest panel:
When Shiroko arrived at her side, the girl couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yuichi, didn't you take a leave of absence because you were feeling unwell?"
Facing her question, Shiroko looked directly into her faintly purple eyes, his gaze full of sincerity. "That's because there is someone I care about right here!"
Meeting Shiroko's gaze, the girl felt her heart pounding wildly in her chest.
Subconsciously, she lowered her head.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shiroko directly tested out his newly acquired [Eye of Investigation].
Compared to his own status panel, the information returned by the [Eye of Investigation] seemed a bit unusual:
Name: Kanzaki Marina Age: 19 Personality: Gentle, kind, shy Hobbies: Enjoys reading quietly alone Sensitive Spot: Earlobes Appearance Score: 92 Affection Level: 60 Strength: Tier 1 Lower Stage Recent Thoughts: 'Oh my, why is Yuichi suddenly looking at me like that? Could he want to date me? If that's really the case, should I agree...'
'No wonder the description for the [Eye of Investigation] said that with it, I could get twice the result with half the effort.'
'System! I didn't expect you to be this kind of system!'
'Now, I like you even more!'
Seeing her internal struggle, Shiroko ramped up his offensive, bringing out his award-winning acting skills.
"Sigh... I'm sorry! My parents' passing has made me spout some nonsense. Please don't mind me, Marina."
As soon as he said this, Marina's guilt instantly maxed out.
'That's right! Yuichi just lost his parents, which is why he sees me as someone he cares about, yet I...'
As she thought about this, Marina was about to open her mouth to explain.
But right at that moment, the class bell suddenly rang.
This period was Japanese Literature, taught by a busty, mature woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Seeing Shiroko, a hint of surprise flashed through her beautiful eyes. "Yuichi, didn't you take a leave of absence because you were feeling unwell? How come..."
"It was just a minor issue. I wouldn't want to miss the beautiful Ms. Saya because of it," he replied smoothly.
Hearing Shiroko's praise, a bright smile bloomed on the busty teacher's face.
The motion even caused the twin peaks on her chest to tremble slightly.
This sight made the eyes of all the teenage boys below go wide, with some even drooling like fools.
Hearing Shiroko's words, Marina inexplicably felt a slight twinge of jealousy in her heart.
"Hehe, then you had better pay close attention in class, Yuichi, or else your teacher will get angry!" she giggled.
"Of course! If I were to make the beautiful Ms. Saya angry, I imagine the entire school's students and faculty would treat me as public enemy number one!"
'Is Yuichi angry because of my silence? B-But I didn't reject him either! I just couldn't react in time!'
'Yuichi always takes such good care of me and often makes me laugh. I actually really like him...'
The entire class period passed by with Marina lost in her wild thoughts.
When the dismissal bell finally rang, she was just about to explain herself to Shiroko, only to find him packing up his belongings.
"Yuichi, what are you doing?" she asked.
"I'm transferring schools. My aunt is already preparing to send me abroad to study. Originally, this time I... Sigh, never mind, I won't say it!" he said, shaking his head.
Stopping mid-sentence, Shiroko let out a soft sigh, shook his head, and continued packing.
As the saying goes, a man only needs a hint of sorrow to put on a tear-jerking performance!
At that moment, Marina felt as if her heart had been pierced by a needle—it hurt so much!
In an instant, the girl's eyes grew red and teary.
She subconsciously reached out and grabbed his arm, pleading softly, "Please don't go, Yuichi, okay?"
"Marina, I've been very happy sharing a desk with you for these past three years. I will definitely cherish these memories!"
As Shiroko's words fell, the girl immediately recalled every little detail of their interactions over the past three years.
She thought of how he made her laugh when she was sad, how he helped her deal with the delinquents stalking her, how he...
In an instant, tears spilled from the girl's eyes.
Then, she made the boldest move of her eighteen years of life. She threw herself directly into Shiroko's embrace, wrapping her arms tightly around his sturdy waist. "Don't go, Yuichi!"
"I can stay, but I wonder if Marina would be willing to be my girlfriend?" he asked with a gentle smile.
