Jingu-kun, you are about to be hacked to death

As soon as he entered the classroom in the morning, Bai Ye heard the people around him discussing something, and it even concerned him.

It was nothing more than the aftermath of Horikita and Hasebe "fighting" over him in the classroom yesterday.

Because Horikita had failed, rumors were spreading that he had dumped her and accepted the better-figured Hasebe Haruka instead.

He wanted to see what Horikita's attitude was, only to find her sitting in her chair with no expression, looking cold and detached even when she occasionally glanced at the people gossiping about her.

It was as if she were saying, "What a bunch of foolish humans."

Only at this moment did Bai Ye feel that he and Horikita shared the same sentiment.

As for Hasebe, while being surrounded by a few girls asking questions, she secretly cast an apologetic look toward him, to which he shook his head indifferently.

And at this moment.

"Jingu-kun, you're too amazing! You've already changed girlfriends just two weeks into the school year!"

Ike Kanji walked over excitedly, patting him on the shoulder with an envious expression, "And it's Horikita and Hasebe, no less. How did you do it? Why don't you teach me?"

"I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to learn it." He looked coldly at this person who was already on his expulsion list.

Although he knew that Ike Kanji would turn over a new leaf later and even become Shinohara's boyfriend.

But that had nothing to do with him; anyone who plotted against him would have no good end, let alone someone so stupid and almost entirely useless to the class.

These three idiots were already on his expulsion list; when they would be expelled depended on when an opportunity arose, and he couldn't be bothered to build a good relationship with them.

"How could I not learn it? Just teach me, come on."

Ike Kanji tugged at his clothes, pleading with a pitiful expression on his face:

"Look, I haven't had a girlfriend since school started. Don't you think that's abnormal?"

"Others don't have one either. What's abnormal about that?"

"Anyway, just teach me. I'll show you something good~"

"Something good?" He frowned slightly.

"Yeah, that kind of thing, hehe~" Ike Kanji let out a lewd laugh.

"..."

To be able to openly discuss such things in the classroom, Ike was truly a talent.

"Hey, can you stop bothering Jingu-kun!"

Sato, who was sitting behind them, couldn't take it anymore and shoved Ike Kanji away.

Caught off guard, Ike Kanji fell flat on his face.

He dusted off his backside and stood up, wanting to see who was being so arrogant. Upon seeing who it was, the anger on his face dissipated by thirty percent, but he still spoke in a tough tone:

"What does it have to do with you? What's wrong with men talking about these kinds of topics?"

"Jingu-kun is not like you. Don't think everyone has a brain full of filthy things like you do."

"Hehe, you're not him, how do you know what he's thinking... Maybe he's secretly using your photos to do xxx!"

"What did you say? Say that again!" Sato, embarrassed and angry, raised her signature pen, wanting to give Ike Kanji a few jabs.

"The wicked woman is killing someone... help, murder!" Ike Kanji screamed as he fled the classroom.

"You stop right there!"

Just as Sato was about to chase after him, Bai Ye grabbed her arm.

The girl's previously aggressive momentum instantly wilted by half:

"Jingu-kun, you..."

"Forget it, there's no need."

"But this guy is just too disgusting. It's one thing for him to talk bad about you normally, but he actually has the nerve to ask you to teach him."

"I'll handle this matter myself, so don't worry about it."

"Alright then."

Watching Bai Ye let go of her hand, Sato felt a slight sense of regret, and then she suddenly had an idea.

"Jingu-kun, do you believe in fortune-telling? Actually, I've learned a bit about it recently. Do you want me to take a look for you..."

"Uh... alright."

Given his personality, he didn't want to agree, but since she had just spoken up for him, he couldn't bring himself to be heartless.

"Then follow me."

Sato grabbed his wrist and pulled him out of the classroom.

Meanwhile, over at Hasebe's side.

The girls surrounding her had also been paying attention to the commotion on Bai Ye's side. Seeing him being pulled away by Sato, they looked at Hasebe with teasing expressions:

"Your boyfriend has been taken away. Aren't you going to chase after him?"

"I've said it many times, he is not my boyfriend."

Hasebe frowned slightly.

"Don't deny it, if it's not true, then why are you unhappy?"

"Who's unhappy? I'm just his older sister, what's wrong with caring about my younger brother's social life?"

Another girl teased, "Still playing the 'older sister' card? You two are quite the wild pair, aren't you?"

This remark made Hasebe's expression look a bit unnatural.

Although her own conscience was clear, in the eyes of others, it seemed... rather improper.

"Anyway, he and I are not dating, so stop trying to fish for information from me."

Hasebe made it clear that she had no intention of pursuing Bai Ye, which slowly made the surrounding girls feel puzzled.

"Alright, maybe we misunderstood you. Just let us know when you two actually start dating."

As soon as the girls left, Hasebe couldn't help but glance in the direction Bai Ye had departed.

Even though that was what she had just said, and what she truly thought, why...

Did she feel so annoyed?

Moreover, she was also very curious about what the two of them were actually going to do.

The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she felt.

Tsk.

Meanwhile, on Bai Ye's side.

Watching Sato, who was flustered and intently studying the palm of his hand, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

Though he managed to hold it back.

He said in a calm tone, "Did you see anything?"

"Wait a second, Jingu-kun, it's a bit messy."

Sato pulled at her hair while deep in thought.

Bai Ye was a bit surprised; he had initially thought Sato would pull out tarot cards for divination, but he hadn't expected her to read his palm.

Although that was also a method, but...

He suspected that Sato might have read the wrong book, as this country shouldn't have this kind of divination method.

After waiting for a while longer, Sato finally let go of his hand, her expression somewhat grave.

"What's wrong?"

"Jingu-kun... it seems you are in danger!"

"What kind of danger?"

"You might die... and by a girl, a kitchen knife?"

"..."

He actually believed her.

If it were any other method, he could have dismissed it as a joke, but...

"How much longer do I have to live?"

"This... I'm not sure. Should I take another look?"

"No need, thank you."

"Um... can I add your contact information?" Sato tugged at her short skirt, acting slightly coy.

"No problem."

After exchanging contact information with Sato, the two returned to the classroom together.

On the way, Sato promised him that she would study divination hard, striving to calculate the exact time of his death.

If she really calculated it, would he even be able to live a normal life?

He thought to himself, though on the surface, he still agreed with her.

Of course, he didn't fully believe in this divination either; his level of trust was only about forty percent.
