Shuichi Kanda Doesn't Fan the Flames / Chapter 217: I, Ryuen Kakeru, Know No Fear!

The sudden appearance of Sakayanagi and his group naturally attracted the attention of the members of Class C and Class D.

"Are you all planning to have a Christmas party with so many of you? Count me in, it's more fun with more people!"

"Our party is going to be pretty energetic, I'm worried your small frame might not be able to handle it."

Shuichi Kanda responded, reminding Sakayanagi that it was dangerous here and that she should stay put and watch her small frame.

Ryuen, standing nearby, immediately retorted, "Get out of my way, don't bother me."

"Hehe, I wouldn't do anything to embarrass the organizers."

As he spoke, Sakayanagi actually sat down on a nearby bench and quietly watched the commotion.

Seeing that Sakayanagi didn't actually try to interfere any further, Ryuen turned her attention back to Koenji.

"Although we've been interrupted, we can now get down to business."

"Serious business?" Koenji paused in combing his hair, then chuckled softly. "Judging from the situation, you're probably looking to find the guy who planted the listening device, right?"

"That's right."

"That's a real shame. Planting listening devices in other classes is just too unseemly, completely out of my style. So you've got the wrong person, Dragon Boy."

"Pfft."

Koenji's special way of addressing Ryuen made Sakayanagi, who was sitting to the side, laugh. Clearly, she found the nickname amusing.

"Then do you have any evidence to prove you didn't do it?" Ryuen didn't seem to care about Koenji's form of address or Sakayanagi's laughter.

"I don't have that, but I do have a lead on this..."

"Excuse me for a moment?"

Just as Koenji was about to say something, Sakayanagi, who was sitting on the bench, interrupted him.

"You're not talking about Kanda, are you?"

"Of course not. If it were him, he would have already come forward and admitted it, right?" Koenji smoothed his long, flowing hair, revealing a refreshed expression.

"I don't deny that. Being brave and taking responsibility is what a real man does. But don't try to pin something on me that I didn't do."

Shuichi Kanda glanced at Koenji in surprise, not expecting that this guy really knew him well.

"I see. Well, I guess I'll have to be careful then. After all, someone who even Dragon Boy can't find must be quite capable."

"Sakayanagi, I told you to shut up, didn't I? And if you use that kind of language again, I'll kill you."

"Oh dear, don't you like this nickname? I think it suits you perfectly, Dragon Boy."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Ryuen Sakayanagi, and once he was close enough, he kicked her without any hesitation.

"Oh—!"

Faced with the aggressive Ryuen, Hashimoto hurriedly stepped in front of Sakayanagi, blocking the kick with his left arm.

However, he was immediately thrown away by the powerful force and crashed onto the concrete ground.

At the same time, Kito and Kamuro immediately prepared themselves and entered battle mode, while the students of Class C also stood behind Ryuen.

The atmosphere immediately became tense.

Sakayanagi's actions undoubtedly left Shuichi Kanda speechless.

A wise man does not stand under a crumbling wall. Since suffering a loss in the Shopping Street, Shuichi Kanda has become much more cautious in his actions.

Therefore, he couldn't understand Sakayanagi's actions at that moment.

What is the purpose of risking one's life to muddy the waters?

Just to prevent Ryuen from finding Ayanokoji?

You've wasted your time, haven't you? Didn't realize I'd already revealed Ayanokoji's identity to Ryuen?

Having seen through Sakayanagi's little scheme, Shuichi Kanda felt a little smug, realizing he had won against her again without even realizing it.

But the scene before us...

"Tsk tsk tsk, so this is Ryuen of Class C who rules by force? Not so great, he didn't even manage to kill anyone with a single kick. My expectations have been quite disappointed."

As he spoke, he gestured with his eyes to Masayoshi Hashimoto, who was getting up from the ground looking completely unaffected.

"Shut up, Kanda, do you want to take my flying kick too?" Ryuen turned around and glared fiercely at Shuichi Kanda.

"Oh dear, I'm so scared!" Shuichi Kanda, hiding behind Miyake while being playful, giving Ryuen no chance at all. "If you're so good, why don't you just take down all the people in Class A?"

As soon as Ryuen showed the slightest sign of making a move, Shuichi Kanda would immediately turn tail and run without hesitation.

Anyway, Miyake, Sudo, and Horikita behind him definitely won't stand idly by. And even if they can't escape, it will buy them time to get their Black Belt.

Seeing Shuichi Kanda's expression, Ryuen scoffed disdainfully.

"Those who only know how to hide behind others shouldn't be jumping around here."

"Heh, I just hope you guys can fight it out, preferably beat up Sakayanagi's heart condition. Then you'll get taken away by the police and expelled, and Sakayanagi will be absent because of hospitalization. Class D can then reap the benefits. Am I wrong?"

That's outrageous! This guy is absolutely awful!

This thought immediately popped into the minds of everyone present.

However, Sakayanagi, who had met Sakayanagi Shuichi Kanda many times, completely ignored his sarcasm and instead looked at Ryuen with a smile, saying, "What's wrong? Did I upset you?"

"I should have said that if you call me that again, I'll kill you," Ryuen said, enunciating each word clearly.

"That's enough," Horikita couldn't stand it anymore. "You all need to stop this. If this continues, there will be big problems."

Horikita warned Ryuen, who was committing the violence, but it was Sakayanagi who stopped him.

"What just happened, Hashimoto- kun?"

No, I just fell down.

Hashimoto brushed the dust off his clothes and said nonchalantly.

"Did you hear that, Horikita- kun? That's what he said," Sakayanagi said with a smile.

"Hmm... you guys and Ryuen aren't normal."

Horikita was speechless. Sudo was already a troublesome guy, but compared to these guys, he was practically a model of a good child.

They not only showed no dissatisfaction with the violence, but also exuded an atmosphere of not caring about a fight.

"Hey! Are we going to fight or not? I'm getting impatient. Our Class D is all set to reap the benefits. And don't worry about getting hurt. If anything happens to you, I'll burn paper money for you."

Ryuen: "..."

Sakayanagi: "..."

There's a saying that goes, "In a fight, you should first take out those who help and those who try to mediate." But what if you're dealing with someone who's fanning the flames?

Clearly, with Shuichi Kanda's interference, Ryuen is unlikely to actually fight Sakayanagi.

As for beating up Shuichi Kanda, don't be ridiculous.

This guy has been urging me to take action since the beginning of the day; if you were to ask who on the scene most wanted a fight, it would probably be him.

Since that's the case, how could I, Ryuen Kakeru, possibly grant his wish?

Looking at the two groups who had calmed down, Shuichi Kanda felt slightly helpless. Was my ability to stir up trouble really that bad?

"Is this what Class C and the former Class A like? This is so boring. I'm just like that sickly boy, and I really hope you guys start fighting."

However, once he calmed down, he obviously wouldn't be mocked by Koenji.

"What do you mean when you say we're all boring?"

"You really dislike that one thing I said, little girl?"

"Pfft!" Shuichi Kanda immediately laughed. "Koenji, I admit your naming skills!"

"I think it's pretty good too."

Surprisingly, Ryuen and Shuichi Kanda immediately joined forces.

However, Sakayanagi seems to have some reservations about this title.

"Your name is Kouenji, right? You're using English incorrectly. I'm not a little girl."

"Hehehe, it wasn't you who decided this, it was me. This isn't a wrong usage. As long as you meet the age and body type for 'girl,' I'll call you that."

"That's wrong. In terms of usage, 'little girl' is a term only used for elementary school girls. The world won't allow you to act recklessly."

"Not being bound by common sense is my style."

Koenji deftly swept her hair back.

"That's so... sobs"

"What are you doing!"

Just Shuichi Kanda was about to praise Koenji, Horikita covered his mouth from the side.

Are you really afraid that a fight won't break out?

Reaching out and removing the hand from his mouth, Shuichi Kanda shrugged, returning to his normal demeanor.

"Yes, right now I really hope a fight breaks out, so I can see the current Student Council President's bottom line."

As he spoke, he looked at Ryuen: "How about it, Ryuen? Want to do me a favor? I'll offer you one million Private Points. You can fight the people from Class A. You have four boys on your side, and only two on their side. You can't possibly lose."

"Hmph, a million points? Are you trying to fob me off Delia?"

"That's true. Ryuen gets 800,000 points from Class A every month, so 1 million points is indeed not enough."

Sakayanagi nodded, seemingly unafraid of his men being beaten, since that was indeed how he perceived it.

However, she was clearly wrong this time. Not only did Ryuen lose all of her points, but she also lost the contract she won from Katsuragi to Shuichi Kanda.

However, Ryuen would not publicize this matter, and it was not yet time to fulfill the contract again, so Sakayanagi was unaware that starting next month, Class A's tribute recipient would become Shuichi Kanda.

"That two million?"

Three million?

"Five million, that's the most I can get!"

Shuichi Kanda's continuous price increases made Ryuen's eyelids twitch.

"Enough! You..."

"Enough? Then why aren't you doing it?"

"That's enough! If you're so eager to stir up trouble, why don't you just let Miyake handle it? He got into plenty of fights back in high school."

"That won't do. Akito is my last resort to protect me. How can I let him go out and fight?"

Shuichi Kanda shook his head and refused outright.

"Pshaw! Coward!"

Ryuen chuckled and then left with his men; after all, he had a date later.

Chapter 217 I, Ryuen Kakeru, am fearless!

After Ryuen left, the students in Class A and Class D also disbanded one after another.

"By the way, Ayanokoji, didn't you receive a love letter? Aren't you planning to go on your date?"

Upon hearing Sudo's words, Sakayanagi, who was about to leave, glanced at Ayanokoji with surprise before turning and departing.

"Uh, I had forgotten everything if you hadn't mentioned it."

After checking the time on her phone, Ayanokoji headed towards the school.

The agreed time was 5 p. m., which was just dusk, perfect for a rooftop confession.

However, what awaits Ayanokoji is clearly not as simple as a girl's confession.

Not wanting to miss out on all of this, Shuichi Kanda naturally dragged Miyake away early on, their destination being their dormitory.

Because everything was ready by noon.
