Chapter 337

"But Rikki failed the exam by just a few points, and her goal is the Tokyo University! That's amazing!" Chihaya Anon exclaimed in surprise.

"I'll pass next time," Shiina Riki said calmly. "After all, Sakiko is also aiming for the Tokyo University, and I don't want to lose to her."

"I didn't expect Rikki to get married so soon after turning 18. Isn't it a bit too hasty to get married right before the legal age of majority? Are you that worried about Riki being snatched away?" Chihaya Anon laughed. "You don't usually stick to Riki all the time, do you?"

"Don't imagine yourself as me," Shiina Riki said irritably.

They chatted for a long time, looking forward to their new university environment, laughing and talking.

"Sorry I'm late, the principal insisted that I give a speech on stage..." Riki pushed open the door and walked in at this moment.

Shiina Riki quickly went over and took out a handkerchief to wipe Riki's sweat. "It must be tiring in the summer, right?"

"It's just a little hot," Riki said.

"Have something iced." Shiina Riki ordered two iced coffees, then turned to see Aine's teasing expression.

Isn't this spoiling Riki a bit too much?

"So noisy, it's pretty normal..." Shiina Riki glared at her.

After chatting for an afternoon, Riki and Shiina Riki walked home.

"Aine said I'm always clinging to you," Shiina Riki said.

"No problem," Riki said after thinking for a moment.

Shiina Riki frowned. "I was just doing what a wife should do, how am I being clingy... Also, you haven't kissed me today."

Shiina Riki stroked her black hair, glanced at Riki, and the two kissed.

"I'm sorry I asked you to help me study for so long but I still didn't pass. I'll pass next time," Shiina Riki said.

"We don't necessarily have to go to the Tokyo University; Keio University will do." Riki said.

If I can't get into Jingcheng University, I can make do with Haicheng University... wait, I almost misspoke. How is Haicheng University inferior to Jingcheng University?

Shiina Riki paused for a moment, then said, "Then I'm not good enough for you."

Because Riki is so capable.

She wanted to be worthy of Riki.

"Let's go home!" Shiina Riki said with a bright smile.

Rikki's cheerful expression, it seems like another big battle is about to begin today.

Riki and Rikki always fought until they were both exhausted, reaching the peak of pleasure!

This is the strength of the world's number one physique in the Bang Bang universe.

War!

"Let's go home!" Riki said with a smile.

(Rikki's route, complete)

Extra: Mana Line 01

Sumiida Mana never imagined that, at the foot of the ninety-nine steps of her family's authentic Japanese shrine, in the languid summer breeze and amidst the chirping of cicadas, she would see a handsome young man begging in English when she returned home after a two-day break from her idol activities.

"One dollar, just one dollar."

Looking at the shoulder-length brown-haired beauty in front of her, Riki wondered, "Are all the Japanese girls in this world this pretty?"

Or is this world a wish-fulfillment anime with a male-to-female ratio of 1:39? If I accidentally transmigrated here, wouldn't I be able to build a harem?

But before that, Riki had something even more important to do—he needed Japanese yen!

That's right, Japanese yen.

It refers to Japanese currency, not the verb form below it.

Riki felt fortunate that he hadn't transmigrated while taking a shower, otherwise he would have been subjected to exhibitionism by the beautiful girl in front of him. However, he couldn't find any Japanese yen on his body, and if this continued, he would starve to death before he even returned to the Real World.

Then I'll have no choice but to beg from this beautiful girl in front of me.

I'll lend her some money and pay her back later.

But I feel like I've seen this girl somewhere before. Why did the image of a donut suddenly pop into my head?

"Don't you have any money on you?" Sumiida Mana asked, looking at Riki, who was dressed neatly.

"To be honest, I'm from another world, and I only have my phone with me, no Japanese yen," Riki confessed, pointing to the red vending machine next to her. "I urgently need to buy a Coke to calm down and replenish my energy. I'll pay you back later."

"No." Sumiida Mana shook her head.

Riki sighed. If the pretty girl wasn't willing to lend him the money, there was nothing he could do. Although he was indeed penniless, he wasn't going to resort to moral blackmail.

Riki got up and planned to walk back to the city along the highway to figure out a solution.

"Wait!" Sumiida Mana grabbed Riki's hand and said seriously, "Mana didn't say she wouldn't lend you money."

"?" Riki.

You humorous Japanese girl, don't you want to listen to what you're thinking? You can lend money but you don't want to.

For example, borrowing.

But speaking of which, this Japanese girl's hands are so soft, and she smells faintly of roses. Are all beautiful girls this approachable, shaking hands without any distance between them?

Cool!

Sumiida Mana raised her index finger, which resembled a white scallion, and said earnestly to Riki, "You are healthy and have all your limbs intact. If you are willing to work, the minimum wage is 1,000 yen per hour according to the law. Although I don't know what difficulties you have encountered, no matter what happens, you must not give up your dignity. Please stop begging and the like. You are still young and have many possibilities. Start to cheer up and work hard now!"

Big... Great Teacher?!

Riki was shocked. It was as if Sumiida Mana was bathed in a halo of light, so bright that Riki, a college student, couldn't open his eyes and felt as if he was being purified.

"Also, it's best not to walk back; it takes three hours to get to the city center along the highway," Sumiida Mana added.

Riki pondered for a moment and said, "Great Teacher is right, we've already hit rock bottom, so it's all about going up!"

"Yes!" Sumiida Mana was delighted to see Riki cheer up, and quickly waved her hand, saying, "Of course, it's best not to swear."

You're absolutely right! If anyone swears again, I'll chop off Rokko's head!

Looking at Sumiida Mana's innocent smile, Riki understood.

This beautiful Japanese girl is the Buddha incarnate, a pure saint. Even Tang Sanzang, upon seeing her radiant light, would call her "Buddha."

"Then may I ask, Great Teacher, where am I going now?" Riki asked.

"Don't call me 'Great Teacher'!" Sumiida Mana waved her hand shyly and chuckled, "If you don't mind, you can come work at my shrine. It'll be very busy these next few days, and having a tall guy like you help out will definitely make things much easier... Um, room and board included, how about 10,000 yen a day?"

"So this is a shrine. Speaking of which, there is a torii gate." Riki looked up at the red torii gate, which read 'Sumiida Shrine', and replied, "OK, my name is Riki!"

Sumiida Mana smiled and said, "My name is Mana, Sumiida Mana!"

Riki thought he knew which world he had transmigrated to.

I also understand why seeing Sumiida Mana reminded me of a donut.

Because Mana is Mikumura Shioka's teammate, the Donut Lady.

"Speaking of Mana afraid that I'm a bad person and will let a wolf into the house?" Riki asked curiously.

"I think Riki is a good person, and... my dad is amazing," Sumiida Mana said with a smile.

How powerful could it be? This isn't a super-system world.

Riki sighed, thankfully he was a gentleman, otherwise Mana would have been finished.

Riki sat upright in the shrine, looking at the stern-faced middle-aged man in front of her, sweat pouring down her face.

The opponent is a Yasuo, I'm not kidding.

Just as Riki and Sumiida Mana reached the door, a wild deer jumped out. Then they saw Junda's father swing Wooden Sword at the deer's waist, breaking the robust deer's back and turning it into a crooked, unsteady shape, killing it instantly.

Lu Yi... no, Riki understood why Mana had so much faith in her father after seeing that scene.

The man before me is indeed a sword saint.

Instead of competing and making a name for yourself, you'd rather stay at a shrine as a lowly priest?

"You want to work at the shrine?" Junta's father asked, looking at Riki.

"Yes," Riki said earnestly.

"How's your stamina?" Junta's father asked.

"I frequently competed in the 400-meter race during my high school years."

Chuntian's father sized up Riki's muscles under his clothes; indeed, his explosive power and endurance were quite impressive.

"What kind of food do you like?" Junta's father asked again.

Is it possible to be a picky eater?

Is working here really that great?

"A sweeter flavor," Riki said.

"Hmm, what type of girl do you like?" Junta's father asked.

No, are you here on a blind date?

Mana was sitting right next to me.

"Dad, stop joking." Sumiida Mana blushed and was annoyed. She stood up and said to Riki, "Let's go, I'll show you the room."

Riki nodded, stood up, walked to the door, thought for a moment, then turned back to Chun Tian's father and said, "If I had to say, I like girls who are kind-hearted and strong."

Did I get it right? He probably won't chop me up, will he?

Junta's father nodded without saying a word.

Riki quickly followed Sumiida Mana into her room.

At night, the moon was bright and the stars were few.

Riki was a light sleeper and couldn't fall asleep. Luckily, Chun Tian's father had given him a small advance on his wages, so he decided to go down the mountain to the vending machine to buy a bottle of Coke.

Walking along the mountain path in my Wooden Clogs, the moonlight filtered through the leaves and fell on the stone steps, the leaves rustling softly, creating a unique sense of tranquility.

Enjoying a Coke at this time would be such a delightful experience.

Suddenly, Riki heard a girl's voice. He looked ahead and saw Sumiida Mana sitting on the bottom step, holding her phone and muttering to herself. Riki thought for a moment and walked over.

"Rinko-chan's birthday is May 1st, so we need to prepare her birthday present in advance. She likes collecting pretty pendants..."

"Ikue-chan seems really worried about her grades. I'll lend her my notes..."

"Chiri is interested in romance, but I'm not familiar with that."

Sumiida Mana typed each word carefully into her phone's memo app, secretly opening the class group chat to gather information from other people's conversations. She hugged her knees, rested her forehead on her knees, and sighed deeply, "Making friends is so hard."

"Why not just send a message in the group chat?" Riki said.

The sudden sound startled Sumiida Mana, who shuffled back several steps in her Wooden Clogs and stopped on the road. Seeing it was Riki, she breathed a sigh of relief, then pouted and complained, "At least make a sound so I'd known!"

"I just trudged all the way here..." Riki said, then suddenly strode forward, grabbed Sumiida Mana's hand, and pulled her into his arms.

"Huh?"

Sumiida Mana paused for a moment, then saw two motorcycles speed past her from behind, creating a gust of wind and almost hitting her. They probably thought there wouldn't be anyone on the highway so late at night, and didn't even turn on their headlights for a thrill.

What kind of Japanese ghost boy is this?!

Riki was a little annoyed. If he could keep up with the motorcycle on his own two legs, he would have dragged those two off and beaten them up, and also asked Mana to call the Yasuo to come and beat them up too.

That's enough.

Less complaining and cursing, more full and partial insurance.

Let's wait and see when their luck turns around.

"I hope that the two of them will be able to fly away tomorrow." Riki turned around and bowed to the torii gate.

"The gods wouldn't grant such a wish, and it's really bad to wish for someone to curse them," Sumiida Mana quickly said.

"Not necessarily. You might be the daughter of the Great Goddess Junda. She'd probably be furious if she saw you almost get hit," Riki said, shaking her head.
