Shizuka, Shirou, and a Fallen Girl / Shizuka's Gyaru Student Follows Her ...

But I still need to eat and buy clothes, and the money I earn this afternoon isn't enough anymore. So I'm planning to take a part-time job during the day too.

"Please reconsider and don't drop out yet. Your teacher will help you figure something out. There are many fun things in this world that can only be experienced in school. High school and university are really interesting!"

The gal girl waved her hand with a smile and said, "It's okay, Shizu-chan. Even if you lend me money, I'll still have to find a way to pay it back later. Besides, I'm not very bright, and my exam scores are barely passing. My deviation score means I can't get into any good schools."

"At least when it comes to studying, nothing is impossible, as long as you want to do it!" Shizuka Hiratsuka looked earnestly at the gal girl and asked, "Don't you have anything you want to do at school? Don't you have any wishes at all?"

Upon hearing this, the gal girl, Nao Toukan, blinked, her made-up cheeks seeming to flush even more. She changed her tone, speaking like a shy girl, "Well, if you're talking about wishes, it's not like I don't have any."

"Hmm, tell me, what's your wish? I'll do everything in my power to help you!" Shizuka Hiratsuka looked earnestly at the female student, vowing to help her fulfill her wish no matter what, to let her experience the joy of learning, and to keep her here. How could she let a child not even finish junior high school properly and end up doing some strange work?

"Well, I told you... yeah... I actually wanted to go on a date with... Shirou, who's in my class," said Nao Toukan, blushing.

"..."

"..."

"... Huh?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka stared wide-eyed, frozen in place. She had a strange feeling, as if she had directed and acted in someone else's drama, making them look incredibly impressive.

Chapter 587 Shizuka, Shirou and a Fallen Girl

At this moment, the girls in the classroom were having this conversation.

"What that shameless bitch does outside is none of our business," someone in the women's group said angrily.

"But she did something she shouldn't have done!" someone in the women's group said with a grim face.

"The whole class made a pact that no one was allowed to confess to Shirou before graduating from junior high! But that girl transferred to our class in the second year of junior high, and on her very first day, she dared to flirt with Shirou, pester Shirou, and ask Shirou out on dates! Just because she has big breasts!" The group of girls slammed their fists on the table indignantly.

"Well, so we didn't do anything wrong. She got rejected by Shirou, and now she's all alone in class. She deserves it! She should just drop out!" the girls said angrily.

"Hmph! Serves them right!" Black smoke emanated from the women's group.

Meanwhile, Shizuka Hiratsuka gal girl revealed a shy and adorable side, reminiscing about the day she met the boy she liked.

At that time, the class underwent its annual reshuffling. The students who had been together for a year and were already familiar with each other had formed their own small groups, but now they were separated and reorganized.

In these situations, some unlucky children might be placed alone in completely unfamiliar environments. If other classes don't have such isolated individuals, but rather a group of already familiar small groups, it will be even more difficult for them to integrate.

Making friends also requires a talent. While some people can become friends with strangers in just a few minutes, others can only strain the relationship even after a year, sometimes turning strangers into enemies.

Adolescents are sensitive and vulnerable, hoping the world will revolve around their ideas. They are easily hurt and can also easily hurt others. Yet, this is also an age full of imagination and drive; some become obsessed with certain things and completely immerse themselves in them, becoming oblivious to everything around them.

Some people might suddenly make a change one day, like debuting during a holiday or in high school, transforming from someone who doesn't care about their appearance into someone who is stylish and handsome.

However, whatever the change, it will naturally be accompanied by misunderstanding from some people, excessive pride, excessive isolation, excessive ego, and excessive introversion. If these behaviors hurt others, it will be difficult to become friends.

That's how it was for Nao Toukan back then. During the New Year's holiday, she met her favorite type of girl and became a gyaru (a type of yakiniku, a type of gyaru, often associated with women) according to her interests. But she didn't expect to be left out when it came time to be assigned to a class, and less than a week later, some strange rumors started circulating about her.

"Oh, did you hear? Apparently, some girls in our class are involved in compensated dating!"

"What? What! What's going on?"

"Who else could it be? It's that hot girl in our class, of course. Someone saw her holding hands with an older man on the street."

"Really?"

The new classmates in the class had some misunderstandings and confusion because of her appearance. There was even a lewd guy who seemed to be obsessed with reading comics and asked her how much she would charge for sex. At that time, the girl's family had not experienced so many things, nor was she as strong as she would become later. She was so upset that she ran out of the classroom.

"What?! This is too clingy! Let me make it clear first, I have absolutely no interest in anyone other than handsome guys!" the girl said without turning her head.

A sudden chill followed, pressing against the girl's cheek.

"Ah~!" The Dongguan girl jumped and turned around. What she saw was a handsome red-haired youth handing her a glass of soda. It was a grapefruit-flavored carbonated drink, her favorite flavor.

"Here you go." Shirou placed the drink in the girl's hand.

"Thank you..." The gal girl looked at the red-haired youth suspiciously. She remembered mentioning his drink preferences only once a week ago during her self-introduction. She didn't know if it was a coincidence or if the boy had really remembered what she said.

"You're welcome," Shirou replied softly. He had just felt that things were getting a bit out of hand in the class and was worried, so he came over to check on things.

"Um... even if you're a handsome guy, I still won't do it with you. I'm absolutely not the type to accept someone unless I truly like them," the gal girl said warily to Shirou.

"Classmate Toukan you've never done that kind of thing?" the red-haired boy asked.

"Yeah! Yeah! I'm a virgin, that's not allowed! How could I possibly do something so embarrassing!" the gal girl said excitedly, her face flushed.

"Yes, I believe you," the red-haired boy replied with a gentle smile.

The gal girl felt a sense of warmth and comfort upon seeing the boy's smile. She stared at him, mesmerized. A strange emotion stirred within her, a feeling she had never experienced before.

This feeling was completely different from the kind of liking she used to have when she told her classmates how handsome the male lead in a TV series was.

The girl returned home, lay in bed, and suffered from insomnia all night, her mind replaying the scenes of her time with the boy that day.

The next morning, the gal girl, carrying her schoolbag, rushed into the classroom, ran straight to the red-haired youth's desk, and shouted loudly!

"Shirou- chan~! Go out with me!"

Of course... we all know the result. Shirou rejected her confession, just like he rejected other girls' confessions.

The passionate and gal girl continued her offensive relentlessly, ignoring the protests and threats from the girls around her. She showed no intention of backing down in pursuit of her love.

However, after that, a huge change occurred in the gal girl's family. Her father, whose business failed, couldn't handle the pressure and simply disappeared. Not only did the bank seize all the valuables in the house, but they also had to mortgage the house.

Even if they manage to do all that, the girl's father is still considered a fugitive economic criminal as long as he doesn't return. Even if the company's accounts don't require their financial support, they still have to find a way to repay the money they borrowed from relatives.

To make ends meet, Nao's friend, also a gyaru (a type of gyaru), recommended this part-time job to her. It's similar to a maid cafe, but instead of cooking, she just accompanies lonely, stressed-out office workers to eat, drink, and chat. She can earn a very good hourly wage, and in addition, she can get a cut from the expensive drinks and fruit platters ordered by customers.

Furthermore, this shop has explicit rules prohibiting dating and physical contact with customers without the girls' consent, making it generally quite safe. Nao Toukan doesn't dislike talking to older men, so she performs her job very well.

Chapter 588 The Stalking of a Shizuka Hot Student

In this day and age, in any country, the pressure on office workers in big cities is indeed enormous. 995, 996, and even more terrifying 724 leave people with nothing but work every day. And yet, there's an abundance of talent; if you don't work hard, someone will naturally push you out.

So, some middle-aged office workers want to confide in someone, relax with young girls, and the drinks here are cheaper than those in nightclubs, not to mention there are even younger and more innocent high school and junior high school students around.

At this point, she would encourage these older men;

Some women want to understand the thoughts of girls in this day and age, since they rarely have the opportunity to have such interactions and don't have the courage to do so. Some older men are troubled because their relationship with their daughters has deteriorated, and she will help them offer advice and teach them how to get along with their daughters.

Because their house was taken away, Nao Toukan and her mother had to move out and rent a place. However, her mother's savings were not enough to make ends meet. So, the housewife mother started looking for work, working three jobs a day, hoping to pay off the family's debts to relatives as soon as possible. But her good fortune didn't last long. The result of overwork and exhaustion was that she developed health problems due to overwork.

When my mother collapsed at work and was taken to the hospital for examination, tests revealed that she had other symptoms, a condition known as a "disease of affluence" that requires long-term medication and prohibits any strenuous activity. Even in Japan, where universal health insurance covers 75% of the cost, it is still a significant expense.

It was as if fate was about to bring down one hardship after another upon her family.

However, the girl was a rare natural optimist, and these negative emotions could not defeat her. Despite all the misfortunes that had befallen her, she was still able to find some positive aspects and continue to live her life positively.

The gal girl smiled brightly, revealing her pearly white teeth, and said, "I'm doing a job I don't hate, and the manager even promised to give me some leftover ingredients every day, so I don't lack food or drink. Now, through my own efforts, I live with my mother, taking care of her just like she used to take care of me. Although it takes up a lot of time every day, it's within an acceptable range, so I'm not particularly dissatisfied."

"Is... is that so?" Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at the girl, feeling as if she had lost a lot. No, no! The black-haired woman shook her head, reminding herself that this was a school, and she was a teacher, not someone to compete with students.

"That's settled then, Shizu-chan." The gal girl patted Shizuka Hiratsuka's shoulder, whose expression was complicated, and said seriously.

"Thank you! I appreciate your encouragement. I really need to confess again before that! Shirou is such a popular and kind guy. It would be such a waste if I left and let those guys in my class have him."

After school in the afternoon, the gal girl went to her part-time job to eat, drink, and chat with the customers to earn some extra money. Although sometimes, some customers would take the opportunity to touch her hand or pinch her arm while ordering, which was really annoying.

However, aside from a very few lewd men with strange motives, most people who do this are simply looking to confide in someone, so it's not too difficult to endure.

But Nao Toukan was in a good mood and smiled happily because it was payday.

"Yes, Nao- chan." The shop manager handed the envelope to the gal girl.

"Thank you so much, shop manager!"

The Dongguan girl took her salary out of the envelope, counted it, and smiled. Once she deposited it into her account and combined it with her previous savings, she could finally pay next month's rent.

The girl may seem indifferent to everything, but this actually means that she takes the things she cares about very seriously. At least when it comes to things like charity or socializing, she would never get involved. She only wants to do things with people she genuinely likes.

As expected, I opted for the chat service, but there are still many middle-aged men with that kind of mentality. They seek out high school students, and even junior high school girls, to chat with, and naturally feel they have some kind of privilege after paying.

It's true that there will be instances of inappropriate behavior, such as holding hands or taking advantage of others. After all, even if you're in a store and have a sign saying it's a legitimate business with clear rules, you're still essentially having female students serve customers. The only difference between them and hostesses is that these girls are selling drinks and snacks.

There are security cameras inside the store, so those lewd customers don't dare to go too far. Of course, if you go outside and try to do something like "fatherly" or "motherly" sex, the store will pretend they can't see it.

However, humanity has always been repeating the cycle of benefiting from breaking the rules, only to then create rules that are advantageous to themselves. And then one day, new people will emerge, break the rules, and create new ones.

The more something is forbidden, the more people will want to test it and try to touch it; the more taboo something is, the more it can give people a certain sense of excitement.

The gal girl filled a bento box with the leftover food from the store, then picked out some leftover ingredients from the kitchen and put them in a bag to take home. This would be the food for her and her mother for tomorrow.

The gal girl greeted the people in the store and walked outside. She first went to the ATM and deposited her salary for the day into her mother's account. After seeing the number increase to exceed next month's rent, the young woman smiled, feeling that she had accomplished something very important.

The girl was humming a song in a good mood, unaware that on her way home, a man with his head covered by a hoodie was following her; she was being tracked.

It was almost 9 p. m., and the city was still bustling with activity. Employees who had just finished overtime and young people enjoying the nightlife were all walking on the streets, making it a lively place. However, the girl's rented place was located far from the main road, and the further she went in, the more remote it became. In the end, she was left alone with only the dim streetlights.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from behind, and a Black Shadow figure of a man rushed in front of the girl, tilting his head and standing there in an awkward posture.

"Hehe... Hehehe, good evening, Nao."

"You are... Mr. Koizumi...?" The gal girl finally recognized the man in the darkness from the dim light. He was a regular customer of the store, and many girls in the store had chatted with him. He was usually generous, but he liked to touch her inappropriately and often made dirty jokes.

Chapter 589 Shizuka Encounters a Pervert

"I came here especially for you, Nao. Isn't that great? I've spent a lot of time and money on you! You must have made a lot of money from your commission. Right now, I really need to vent, so please help me out." The man's breathing was ragged, and his eyes were bloodshot as he spoke.

"Wait! Listen to me! I don't do this kind of thing!" Nao Toukan was forced into a corner. If they went any further, it would be a dark alley, which was a dead end.

"Hehehe! If you like being outdoors, you can do it here too. I'll even cover the cost of the room. Here, take it yourself. As long as I'm satisfied, you can take it all." The man took out a black leather wallet from his pocket, opened it, and found at least twenty bills worth tens of thousands of yuan inside.

"I don't want that kind of money! Get out of my way! Or I'll call the police!" Nao Toukan said angrily, glaring at the man.

"Call the police?" The man tilted his head, then grinned lewdly, leaned forward, grabbed the girl's wrist, and said, "My uncle is the Commissioner of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. If you need anything, just call me."

"Let me go! I won't do such a thing!" Nao Toukan shouted at the man.

But it was a woman, and a man who reeked of alcohol, had some mental issues, and was clearly on drugs.

"It's nothing. I've slept with five or six of the women in your shop. They're all the same; they say no, but they still end up doing it anyway."

"I only want to be with people I like. I absolutely don't want a disgusting guy like you! Let me go!" Fuyuu Nao shouted angrily, struggling to get away.

"Who are you kidding?! Someone like you has probably been ridden by a thousand men, right? I've heard that in Japan these days, only elementary school students are still virgins."

"Uncle! What's wrong with your brain to have such a huge misunderstanding of this country? Only someone like you would believe that if you were driven by lust!" Fuyuu Nao retorted without hesitation.

"You're being shameless, aren't you!" The man raised his hand, intending to slap the girl.

At that moment, the red-haired boy appeared. He pulled the blonde girl aside and helped her avoid the man's slap.

"As an adult, would you really believe such delusions? You're just indulging your lust!" Shirou said, pulling the blonde girl over to the seamstress and shielding her behind him, while looking at the gaunt, drug-addicted man.

"Shirou- sama~! Why? Are you the prince who came here specifically to save me?" Nao Toukan looked at the boy with emotion.

Seeing this, the man angrily roared, "What! You bitch! I thought you were having a hard time at such a young age, and I wanted to help you with the household expenses! But you keep defying me, kid! Do you even know who I am?!"

"I don't know who you are, but I know very well that what you've done is a crime," Shirou said coldly, looking at the man.

"What do you know, little brat? Everything I did was for love! I genuinely love every girl under sixteen! It's just that the law is bad! Otherwise, I would have married you all and given you sixteen carefree and meaningful years of your lives."

"What if you're over sixteen? What would you do?" Shirou asked the man.

"Then she's no longer a woman; she's just a piece of rotten flesh that's superfluous just living." The man rolled his eyes, looking like he couldn't even be bothered to discuss it.

"That's not love at all!" Nao Toukan shouted in rebuttal.

"What! You dare to say you like someone else to my face? I didn't know you already had a boyfriend! You're lying! You've deceived my feelings."

"Putting aside our relationship, could you please show some respect?" Shirou grabbed the drunkard's wrist and looked him in the eyes.

"Damn it... Let go! It hurts!" The drunkard tried to shake him off but found he couldn't break free at all; the boy's hand was like a fixed iron clamp.

"Then hurry up and leave! Get lost!" Shirou rudely flung the other man's hand away. Now that he had demonstrated his power, he believed the man wouldn't act recklessly.

The drug addict, clutching his aching wrist, angrily pointed at the gal girl and yelled, "You bastard! I'm going to file a complaint! I'm definitely going to file a complaint against you! You little bitch!"

The drug addict, cursing and swearing, leaned against the wall and walked to the corner, trying to escape.

At that moment, a long leg suddenly kicked him to the ground, and then a bottle of ice-cold drink was spilled on his head, making him dizzy and bringing him back to his senses.

It turned out to be the black-haired woman, Shizuka Hiratsuka. She shook her phone and said fiercely to the man on the ground:

"Hey! You scumbag, listen up! I've recorded everything you just did on my phone. If you dare cause any more trouble and hurt my students, although I don't know if the police chief really has a nephew like you, I'll hand this video over to him and make him promise to enforce the law impartially! Get out of here!"

"Waaaah..." The drug addict scrambled to his feet and ran outside.

People yearn for freedom in love. A handsome older man with a young girl, a beautiful mature woman with an adorable young boy—these diverse ways of love transcend age limitations, and some certainly enjoy popularity. Well, perhaps the kind of love found in stories like Léon: The Professional or Lolita exists.

But works of art are just that—works of art. In reality, people are often too vulnerable when faced with temptation. Compared to love, humans are actually more inclined to indulge their desires. Even in normal interactions between adults, how many are truly loving? Most people use the guise of romance to deceive others.

Even in this new era that advocates gender equality, adult women still inevitably face opportunities to be taken advantage of in the workplace and when going out, and they have to learn various methods to better protect themselves.

It's incredibly terrifying if someone were to prey on a child. That's why in Europe, America, and Japan, a stranger striking up a conversation with a child is often treated as suspicious and gossiped about. In the United States, they might even pull out a gun.
