"Wow, Reina, what are you looking at?"
Kurashiki Reina's Follower Number One, the girl with the cat-like mouth, asked Kurashiki Reina.
She had just endured the three-way parent-teacher conference.
Follower Number One was never considered a good student, and her last test scores were unusually poor. After being scolded by the homeroom teacher, she was also severely lectured by her parents.
However, when her parents heard that she didn't want to go home with them but wanted to find Kurashiki Reina, her parents didn't say much.
Her parents knew Kurashiki Reina's family background. Their daughter was already so unaccomplished; if she could cling to the leg of a rich woman, even if she couldn't live a life of luxury, she could at least find a stable job.
In short, it emphasized a point:
Practicality—
Follower Number One followed Kurashiki Reina's gaze and looked downstairs.
"What's wrong, meow wwww"
"Nothing."
Kurashiki Reina came back to her senses.
Her mother, Kurashiki Reika, was the PTA Chairman and also very familiar with the school board.
Her mother usually communicated directly with the board or parents. Logically speaking, she didn't need to attend such a "commoner-level" family conference. After all, in the principal's phone, her mother's contact information was probably a specially marked "VIP among VIPs."
However, she still appeared here today.
This was not Kurashiki Reina's intention, but her mother's request.
Kurashiki Reika's education for Kurashiki Reina was stricter compared to other second-generation rich kids. She didn't want her daughter to receive any special treatment at school because of her family background.
However, she also knew that such preferential treatment was unavoidable in daily life, so at least in these'special occasions', the school had to treat her and her daughter equally.
That being said, the school certainly still had favorites, for example, Kurashiki Reina's parent-teacher conference was scheduled first.
They were allowed to finish early.
Reina's grades weren't excellent, but they were at an upper-middle level, and her performance in the last test had shown steady improvement.
Kurashiki Reika was quite satisfied with this and didn't reprimand Reina. After the conversation ended, she said she needed to discuss something with the school board and principal, telling Reina to go home alone later.
Kurashiki Reina nodded, but Reina's homeroom teacher, who was standing beside her at the time, became restless upon hearing this.
What standing did she have to talk to this Ms. Kurashiki before the school board…
"I just heard someone say that Xiaolin-kun downstairs seems to have caused another commotion, ww" Follower Number One said.
Downstairs referred to the floor below.
Follower Number One also wished it meant 'underneath her', but since Xiaolin-kun barely even looked at Reina-chan, her hopes were even slimmer.
Ah~~ but she still really wanted to be pressed down by such a handsome guy. Not to mention getting intimate, even just smelling him could prolong her life.
"Mm." Kurashiki Reina nodded.
She had been looking down just now to pay attention to this matter, but she didn't want to tell her follower, lest she start gossiping again.
"Could it be that Hachisuka-kun came for revenge?" The follower asked, somewhat worried.
"No." Kurashiki Reina sneered.
It seemed to be another one of that guy's messy romantic entanglements. Hachisuka Hidemichi probably wouldn't resort to a 'honey trap'... even if he could, he wouldn't be able to enlist Miyajima Sakura's mother.
She appeared to be looking on indifferently, but in reality, she had already heard the full and clear details of the incident from the whispers of the onlookers.
"Oh, then are we still going to see Hachisuka-kun later?"
"Mm."
"To escort you again, www."
"Thank you for your trouble."
"Speaking of which." Follower Number One pursed her cat-like lips and said, "Could you mention to Hachisuka-kun to teach those unseeing brats a lesson?"
"Unseeing brats"...
That referred to a couple of days ago,
When Kurashiki Reina and her two followers were strolling somewhere, a child suddenly rushed out of an alley... calling him a child, but he was probably of 'middle school' age, at most two or three years younger than Kurashiki Reina and her group, but boys develop later, so he looked more immature.
However, what he did was not immature at all.
He rushed out, and his small demonic hand tried to lift Kurashiki Reina's skirt.
Reina was quick and stepped back.
Then the child began to attack her followers.
The two followers reacted slowly, like Yuan Shao. They only started to flee in a panic when the child's wicked hand was about to reach the hem of their skirts.
Kurashiki Reina was never one to have a good temper.
She gathered strength by stepping back, then rushed forward and stomped her foot directly on the face of that 'child' who was actually a'sexual harasser'.
...
"She not only kicked me in the face."
In the corridor, Kurashiki Reika frowned. The boy facing her had half his face bruised and swollen, and there were large patches of bruises on his stomach. "And here, here, and here."
The boy pointed to his injuries, muttering to Kurashiki Reika as if reciting a scripture.
Kurashiki Reika interrupted.
"You said Reina hit you?" she asked.
"Yes..." The boy nodded.
The boy was an unfamiliar face to Kurashiki Reika, but from his youthful face and the fact that he wasn't wearing a school uniform, he probably wasn't a Shiraki student.
Middle schooler?
For a middle schooler to find Reina so quickly after being 'bullied' by her meant that both she and Reina had been investigated.
Not complaining to a teacher or parent, but coming directly to her, further proved that this child had ulterior motives.
Kurashiki Reika's gaze narrowed sharply.
It seemed this kid came prepared.
"Evidence?" Kurashiki Reika said.
"...Th-this..."
The boy somewhat dared not meet Kurashiki Reika's sharp eyes, and he hastily averted his gaze.
Then another child his age reached out and put his arm around his shoulder, saying:
"What are you afraid of? Does an honest person have to have a gun pointed at them?"
"Shota, Shota..." The boy said, somewhat fearfully, under pressure from Kurashiki Reina.
Kurashiki Reina looked at the newly appeared boy with some surprise.
His name is Shota?
He was a little shorter than the boy next to him, but his eyes were much firmer.
A confident smile also appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The boy almost shrank into Shota's embrace, only daring to stare at the tips of his shoes.
Shota, however, looked directly at Kurashiki Reika, and his gaze lingered on her curvaceous areas.
This kind of gaze made Kurashiki Reika extremely displeased, and she even felt a slight sense of unease.
Shota grinned.
Kurashiki Reika had already crossed her arms over her mountainous chest, and her eyes became even fiercer.
This proved that she was wary of him.
It also indicated that she sensed danger.
In other words, she was no longer underestimating him at this moment.
The two were now in a state of equal communication before proceeding to the next part of their conversation.
