Gin likes me?

"That's because our club has updated its equipment and we are in a better state. Qiuzi is indeed the principal's beloved granddaughter. After coming to our club, our club has become much richer."

"Don't talk nonsense, it's because we have achieved good results before, and the school saw our contribution and agreed to it~"

"But, but the last time we won the competition, shouldn't it be Qiu Ting's credit?"

"..."

The atmosphere in the music classroom froze in an instant, causing Reiko Akiba, who was sitting quietly reading a book in her hand, to close her eyes helplessly.

Originally, she didn't want to come to this club classroom which was always filled with weird atmosphere, but she was wandering around the campus when she was spotted by a classmate with whom she had a good relationship, who then dragged her to this club classroom.

Reiko Akiba no longer has any sense of belonging to this club.

She insisted on singing only because her mother, Akiba An, a music teacher at a university, taught her to develop this interest since she was a child.

Since coming to this school and joining the club, Reiko Akiba didn't care too much about anything and just sang by herself.

It’s just a pity that just because she wants stability, it doesn’t mean others want the same.

Reiko Akiba was too lazy to recall what happened during that period. Anyway, she had heard enough malicious rumors about her father whom she had not seen for many years.

"Mian Ying, stop talking."

"No, Reiko, it's obviously them who are shameless. They got the honor through you, and then they are jealous that they can't sing as good as you, Reiko, so they keep ostracizing and slandering you!" Standing in front of Akiba Reiko with her hands on her hips, Kinoshita Menei has been enduring for a long time.

Kinoshita Tamae knew very well that her good friend Reiko Akiba was a strong and kind girl. She also knew that due to special family reasons, Reiko Akiba never liked to have any unnecessary disputes!

But how do these guys have the nerve to come forward and show off their shamelessness again and again!

"What does this have to do with you, Kinoshita? You're pretending to help others, it's really disgusting!"

"Can you be more disgusting than me? Besides being sarcastic and making up rumors about Reiko behind her back, what else can you do? You just rely on the fact that Ishigami Akiko is the principal's granddaughter! Can you do anything better than Reiko? And you still dare to call others disgusting? I have long looked down on you people!"

"Mian Ying, stop talking." Closing the book, Akiba Reiko pulled Muxia Mian Ying's clothes.

At this point, she knew very well that her good friend was here to vent her anger.

But it's not worth it. I have already made my decision. It would be really wrong to let Kinoshita Meiying suffer together with me.

"That's what I want to say! Lianzi, don't worry. I'm not afraid. At worst, I can leave this disgusting school with you and go somewhere else together! Today I just want to scold these self-righteous, insidious villains who have no ability and are jealous of talented people!"

"Kinoshita, you bastard!"

"Well said, I didn't expect you, Reiko, to have such a hot friend, not bad, not bad!~"

Before the furious Qiuzi and others could start to curse back, a voice with loud laughter came from the door of the club.

Staring blankly at Uozuka Saburo who was blocking the entrance to the club like a black bear, everyone in the club shut their mouths in surprise.

"Smoking is not allowed in school."

Frowning and looking at Saburo Uozuka who was standing at the door with a cigarette in his mouth, Reiko Akiba stood up, pulled the still dazed Mion Kinoshita, walked up to Saburo Uozuka, and was about to take the two of them away from the club.

"Okay, Reiko, go find Teacher Yamada. She's a good teacher, so you need to have a good talk with her, okay?"

"Let's go together." With her eyes fixed on Saburo Uozuka, Reiko Akiba did not dare to let Saburo Uozuka stay here.

"Go quickly, I'll wait for you here."

"no!"

"Akiba Reiko, I told you to hurry over."

"...No, it's not worth it."

"You just know how to talk nonsense." Seeing Reiko Akiba soften, Uozuka Saburo shook his head with a smile and reached out to touch Reiko Akiba's neat and smooth hair.

"Let's go quickly. Oh, and this friend of yours can pick me up."

"Hey, um, who are you?" Seeing Akiba Reiko being forcibly driven away by Uozuka Saburo, the previously arrogant Kinoshita Menei looked at the oppressive Uozuka Saburo and shrank her neck nervously.

"I'm Reiko's uncle, you can just call me Kurosawa." She gave a thumbs up to Kinoshita Menei. Uozuka Saburo, who had just heard this girl standing up for justice, looked at her with admiration.

"You're a good man."

"Forehead..."

"Come on, dare you tell me, among those people, who likes to deliberately pick a fight?"

"This... Uncle Kurosawa, you..."

"Don't worry, this is a society ruled by law. I just want to have a good chat with them. There shouldn't be any problem, right?"

"Well, no problem. Not all people are here today, but these four people can't escape responsibility!" He nodded vigorously. Although he didn't know what Uozuka Saburo meant by "chatting", Kinoshita Menei looked at Uozuka Saburo, who was as strong as a bear, and felt that he should give Ishigami Akiko and the others a good scare!

Otherwise I won’t feel relieved!

Anyway, Uozuka Saburo himself said that this is a society ruled by law, and Kinoshita Menei doesn't think that Reiko's uncle would do anything too excessive.

"Okay, go ahead. Buy me a drink, and bring one for you and Lianzi. I'm not familiar with the place and can't find it."

Nodding with a smile, Uozuka Saburo took out a thousand yen and handed it to Kinoshita Meiying, then pushed her out of the club classroom.

"You, what are you going to do?"

Looking at Saburo Uozuka who was standing firmly at the only exit of the club classroom, Ishigami Akiko, the small leader, plucked up her courage and glared at Saburo Uozuka.

"My grandfather is the principal of this school! My uncle is also a member of the board of directors. If you dare to do anything, you will not be able to escape!"

"That's right, if you dare to hit us, you will be in even more trouble afterwards!"

"Yes, if you apologize to us now, we can still..."

"bass!"

A sharp cold light swept past Ishigami Akiko's ears, causing Ishigami Akiko and her two companions to shut their mouths instantly.

After seeing the hair falling on the side of her cheek, Ishigami Akiko finally couldn't help but scream.

But, it was just a cry.

"boom!"

Holding Ishigami Akiko's neck in his hand, Uozuka Saburo pressed Ishigami Akiko against the wall where he had nailed his flying knife, under the gaze of the other two terrified girls.

Looking at Ishigami Akiko, who was struggling and sobbing with tears streaming down her face but couldn't make a sound, Uozuka Saburo slowly pulled out his throwing knife and gently scratched Ishigami Akiko's cheek with a grim smile on his face.

"As the old saying goes, a man who beats a woman is definitely not a good man."

"But unfortunately, I'm not even a good person, so it seems okay to fight a little."

"Are you right?"

135: I told you not to call me that

"Well, I'll be leaving now, Mr. Yamada!"

She hurried out of the office, without even being able to say a polite goodbye, and ran anxiously down the corridor.

She didn't know why, but she was calmed down by Uozuka Saburo's words and came to the office obediently to talk to Teacher Yamada.

However, after changing her mood in the office, Reiko Akiba found that she was unable to calm down and have a good communication with the teacher who had always cared for her.

Fortunately, Teacher Yamada also noticed that Reiko Akiba was absent-minded, and she didn't say much as she had just talked to Saburo Uozuka.

In fact, she was also worried that Reiko Akiba's dangerous-looking uncle might do something bad because of his anger.

'Don't let anything happen!'

As he ran down the corridor, the more he thought about Reiko Akiba, the more he regretted it.

I should have taken Uozuka Saburo with me and left the club classroom!

She certainly didn't think that those disgusting female students who only knew how to say bad things about people behind their backs were qualified to hurt Uozuka Saburo.

What she was worried about was whether Uozuka Saburo would do something dangerous to them out of anger.

The last time Uozuka Saburo came to her house and brought back his father's ashes and relics, Akiba Reiko and Akiba Anne actually had a brief conversation about it.

Soon after, the Fujiki family, who had been plotting ill against them, came to their home with visible injuries and cautiously asked for forgiveness, and promised never to appear in front of them again. Only then did Akiba Reiko and Akiba An understand that this man, who was suspected to be the junior of Akiba Yosaki and might be doing the same dangerous undercover job as Akiba Yosaki, was definitely not doing a decent job.

But Reiko Akiba doesn't mind!

Rather, when she saw the Fujiki father and son coming to her and her mother and apologizing with fear in their eyes, Akiba Reiko felt only happiness and excitement in her heart, and even a sense of satisfaction for some unknown reason.

Ever since Akita Yosaki left home, although Akita Anya has been trying hard to protect and raise Akita Reiko, there are some feelings that a mother really cannot give to her child.

It's like the sense of security that there will be someone to help you hold on even if the sky falls.

And Reiko Akiba had never expected that she would feel this way from a boy who she had only met once and was actually only a few years older than her.

But those female students are different from the Fujiki father and son before!

The Fujiki father and son definitely have a shady background. It would be fine if Uozuka Saburo was a little more ruthless, but the matter of those female students was nothing more than school violence and student disputes. Akiba Reiko didn't want Uozuka Saburo to bear any bad marks because of such an incident.

Recalling the warmth of Uozuka Saburo's big hand on her head when they last parted, Akiba Reiko gritted her teeth and quickened her pace.

"It's not worth it! Don't do it."

"What's not worth it?"

"Huh?" The running steps stopped instantly, and Reiko Akiba suddenly looked towards the courtyard beside the corridor. On the bench beside the courtyard, Saburo Uozuka, who was wearing sunglasses, was sitting with Tamae Kinoshita, who was holding a drink.

"Reiko, are you done talking?"

Standing up with concern, she walked to the side of Akiba Reiko and handed her the drink she had bought earlier.

"Yeah." Nodding slightly, looking at the club classroom with its door closed not far away, Reiko Akiba took a breath and walked quickly to the side of Saburo Uozuka.

"Those girls, you..."

"Don't worry, they are just a few immature students. You don't think I would really do anything excessive to them, do you?"

Smiling and waving his hand, Uozuka Saburo, who understood what Akiba Reiko was worried about, spoke to comfort her.

"I just gave them a scare and they started crying. They really took advantage of the weak and feared the strong."

"Really? It's just an ordinary girls' high school. What do you expect?" She blinked in confusion, but Reiko Akiba still believed what Saburo Uozuka said.

After all, to be honest, in my opinion, Uozuka Saburo has the blessing of a friendly aura, so he looks better.

For those who are not familiar with Uozuka Saburo, few people would not be afraid when looking at his body size and face which looks more majestic and frightening than Prajna when serious.

"Uh." With a subtle look in his eyes, he watched Akiba Reiko being misled by Uozuka Saburo's words. Kinoshita Menei, who was standing a little behind, blinked but did not say anything more.

Although she was initially urged by Uozuka Saburo to buy drinks, Kinoshita Menei, out of curiosity, couldn't help but go back, carefully pushed the door open a little, and took a look at the situation in the club classroom.

Well, I don’t know if it’s because of the dim light or what, but Kinoshita Mayue seemed to see a twisted black aura from Uozuka Saburo who was standing there with only his back to her.

She was indeed frightened, and even felt a little sympathy for the three girls who were kneeling on the ground crying and not daring to make a sound, and looked so aggrieved.

"Okay, today's meeting is over. Is Reiko ready to go home too?"

Saburo Uozuka, who no longer wanted to stay in school, stood up from the bench on his own initiative.

Seeing Uozuka Saburo's actions, Akiba Reiko knew that the other party had other things to do without wasting time. After saying a few simple words to Kinoshita Menei, she said goodbye and left.

"Today, Mr. Yamada kept praising you to me, saying that you have great talent and will definitely be very outstanding in the future."

Walking side by side with Reiko Akiba on the street, Saburo Uozuka began to speak jokingly.

"It's okay." Reiko Akiba blinked and lowered her head slightly so as not to let Saburo Uozuka see the shy expression on her face.

"Are you in the choir? Does that mean you sing well?"

"But I have some talent, and I practice harder than others." She shook her head slightly. When it comes to singing, Reiko Akiba is still very confident.

"After all, my mother is a teacher at the music school. I have been learning from her since I was young, so I started earlier than others."

"That's great. I also like listening to songs. If you have time, can you sing a couple of songs for me?" Looking at Akiba Reiko with a smile, Uozuka Saburo said casually.

"Okay, if you want to hear it."

"Well, then you should go home soon, I have some things to deal with here."

He slowly stopped and stood at the intersection of the street. Saburo Uozuka turned around and looked at Reiko Akiba beside him. After hesitating for a moment, he smiled and raised his hand.

"Don't worry about school anymore, just go to school normally. Since you have such a great talent, don't waste it. I look forward to hearing your concert in the future."

"I promise you, I will do it."

The moment her palm touched her head, Reiko Akiba's eyes began to shake.
