If Shirayuki is Fang Li’s most frequent companion at Butei High, then Tohyama Kinji is his troublemaking friend, and there seems to be an unfathomable mystery between them.
They had fought each other during the entrance exam.
They were in the same class during their first year.
They attended Assault Department classes together.
They even teamed up for Commissioned Missions, making them true troublemaking friends.
“I can’t believe we’re in the same class again for the second grade,” Fang Li sighed, “Could it be that we are cursed?”
“The cursed one must be me,” Tohyama Kinji replied with a bit of sarcasm. “Even if you’re cursed, you have Hotogi-San to help you dispel it. Having a Miko around is a good thing.”
“You’re one to talk,” Fang Li retorted, “Isn’t the Tohyama family connected to the Hotogi Shrine since ancient times? But I haven’t seen you taking care of Shirayuki.”
“I don’t want to get involved in that kind of troublesome stuff,” Tohyama Kinji resisted. “You know my condition. If I get too close to someone like Hotogi-San, I’ll definitely end up in a bad situation.”
In other words, Tohyama Kinji was indirectly admitting that Shirayuki had a certain charm.
But it wasn’t surprising.
At Butei High, Shirayuki was renowned as an honor student.
Her personality was gentle and kind.
Her temperament was elegant and courteous.
Her beauty was exceptional.
Her grades were outstanding.
Even in the Supernatural Research Division, Shirayuki was an unparalleled honor student and the dream partner of countless boys.
Thus, this year, Shirayuki not only became the Student Council President of Butei High but also served as the head of various clubs like the Gardening Club, Handicraft Club, and Women’s Volleyball Club, making her the perfect dream girl.
Moreover, Fang Li, who once received Shirayuki’s help with spring cleaning during the holidays, knew that she excelled not only externally but also as a domestic goddess— she is omnipotent in household chores, and her cooking skills were top-notch, and she is flawless in every way.
Of course, Shirayuki wasn’t without her flaws.
For instance, she would sometimes fall into unfathomable mystery daydreams and do a series of eerie things.
For example, last year, Fang Li had gone on a distant Mission without notifying Shirayuki, despite having taken leave from school.
As a result, on that day, Fang Li received nearly a hundred SMS messages from Shirayuki, all inquiring about his whereabouts. When he returned, he found out that Shirayuki had commissioned Informa and Lezzad to search for him, leading to a thorough investigation of Fang Li’s Mission process. There were even photos taken and packed in a parcel sent to Shirayuki.
One could only imagine Fang Li’s feelings when he received that parcel and curiously opened it to find all those things.
Due to the darkness of that memory, Fang Li promptly sealed it away without the slightest hesitation, vowing never to forget to report to Shirayuki about his Missions in the future.
If Tohyama Kinji understood this whole incident, he would probably be scared out of his wits. With these thoughts pushed to the back of his mind, Fang Li shook his head and sat down on a seat not far from Tohyama Kinji without looking back.
Without delay, Fang Li opened his backpack and suddenly asked, “Aren’t you planning to return to the Assault Department?”
The air around them instantly became heavy.
“… I’m not going back,” Tohyama Kinji turned his head away and spoke softly, “After this year, I’ll transfer to a regular high school and I won’t be a Butei anymore.”
“Is that so?” Fang Li nodded, then didn’t say much more.
In reality, Fang Li inwardly sighed with some regret. Tohyama Kinji was the only one in the Assault Department who could spar with him, or rather, the only one who could enter Hysteria Mode.
However, half a year ago, Tohyama Kinji suddenly transferred from the Assault Department to the Inquesta Division and declared to Fang Li that he would transfer out of Butei High after this year to attend a regular high school, no longer pursuing the path of a Butei.
The reason was simple. Tohyama Kinji’s Big Brother was also a Butei.
But last year, Tohyama Kinji’s Big Brother tragically sacrificed himself during an incident.
The media, however, portrayed Tohyama Kinji’s Big Brother as worthless, causing him immense distress.
In truth, during that incident, Tohyama Kinji’s Big Brother had the chance to escape, but he chose to save others in need, sacrificing himself in the process.
Due to this, his Big Brother, who saved so many people, not only received no recognition but was instead condemned, and Tohyama Kinji suffered greatly from this.
It was all because of the negative image Butei had in society.
Realizing that even when Butei did the right thing, the result might not be good, Tohyama Kinji resolutely left the Assault Department and transferred to the Inquesta Division. He was planning to change schools next year and no longer make being a Butei his goal.
This was the origin of Fang Li and Tohyama Kinji’s conversation.
“Everyone has their own aspirations, and I won’t say much about your decision,” Fang Li murmured to himself, “But your leaving means I’ll have one less opponent to test my true abilities against.”
As soon as he said this, a voice suddenly jumped in and reached Fang Li’s ears.
“No~No~No, you’re wrong! Aren’t there also S-Rank Butei in the Assault Department?” The voice said.
Accompanying the voice, a petite figure bounced out from beside Fang Li’s desk.
Both Fang Li and Tohyama Kinji were startled.
“Hehe, surprised?” The newcomer put her hands up like rabbit ears on her head and said in an energetic and very cute voice, “Don’t worry, Riko is in her herbivore mode today, she won’t suddenly ‘roar’ at you guys!”
The speaker was a very cute girl.
She had a head of fluffy and soft golden hair, with pink ribbons tied on both sides of her head, resembling twin ponytails and long straight hair at the same time. She was wearing the Butei High girls’ uniform, but it had been customized with lace and pleats, giving it a Lolita style.
Although she was petite, her figure was outstanding, especially her chest, which was exceptionally full, almost catching up to Shirayuki’s.
Such a cute girl with bright eyes looked at Fang Li, her smile sweet as if it could drip honey.
