A day's class ended quickly.
"Remember, don't throw the eagle before you see the rabbit. Before you meet the real person, it may be a scam. Whenever it involves money, you must be vigilant and never give her gifts. Do you understand?"
As school was about to end in the afternoon, Kurosawa Mitsuru picked up his schoolbag and gave another reminder.
"I see. Photos are fake. Only when you see the real person can you see the truth."
Miyazaki Yuta was persuaded for a long time and finally remembered it.
During lunch break and between classes, Kurosawa Mitsuru would explain things to him, share his experience, and even give him an example of a friend who had been cheated.
"Good luck."
Kurosawa Hikaru patted him on the shoulder and left his seat to take action.
He didn't say it explicitly, but Tsumugi Akari is the female sea king and a female liar.
Some things are useless to just talk about them. Miyazaki Yuta must experience them personally to see through them.
You know, he has experienced how good this female sea queen is at hooking men.
Moreover, if this matter is said directly, it would be tantamount to implicitly admitting that one has been deceived.
Unfortunately, his schedule this week is basically full, otherwise he would have to go with Miyazaki Yuta to see if the female sea queen would show up and catch her on the spot.
…
Thursday, 18:00.
"I joined the Kyudo Club."
As the maid left, Kurosawa Hikaru met Shifengyuan Mirai's long-expected eyes and said with a smile.
“So soon?”
Shifengyuan Mirai didn't expect that this would be the beginning of the conversation during today's break, and was a little surprised.
Isn't this too fast? They just mentioned it on Tuesday night, and it was done in just one day
"There aren't many people in the Kyudo Club at the University of Tokyo. I told them I had experience, and after they let me try shooting, they agreed to let me join."
Kurosawa Hikaru nodded slightly and explained.
"Joining a club is different from registering for a league, right?"
"My coach invited me to register. I just had to take a photo and write my name. During lunch break today, I was told that my registration was successful."
"Could it be that you are actually quite good at archery?"
Realizing that the coach invited him to register, Shifengyuan Mirai thought about it and asked.
In Japan, the requirements for high school students in Kyudo are relatively simple. They only focus on the hit rate and shooting etiquette. Usually, if the target is hit, it is considered an O, and if it misses, it is considered an X.
However, archery for college students is closer to a profession and adopts a scoring system, which is more rigorous.
Under this premise, Kurosawa Mitsuru went to test shoot, and in such a short period of time, he received an invitation from the coach and registered to join the full school company. It was obviously not as simple as a beginner.
In fact, beginners in Kyudo usually have to lay the foundation, which takes anywhere from a week to three months, depending on their talent, before they can start archery.
"I consider myself to be quite proficient in archery." Kurosawa Mitsuru did not deny it and nodded.
“That’s really exciting.”
Seeing that he was quite confident, Shifengyuan Mirai did not discourage him, but curled the corners of his mouth.
In terms of level, she ranks among the top high school students in the country, and many college students cannot compare with her.
Kyudo is an aristocratic sport that emphasizes self-cultivation, temperament, manners, and a strong state of mind, so she has been learning archery since she was a child.
Compared to Kurosawa Mitsuru, who only occasionally shoots arrows when he returns to his hometown, she is definitely much stronger.
However, it doesn’t matter who is stronger or weaker. The key is that she can meet Kurosawa Hikaru somewhere other than this home, just like friends.
With this good start, the atmosphere of their chat became more relaxed and interesting.
However, the break was short-lived.
For Shifengyuan Mirai, her rest time is only half an hour on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
In addition, Kurosawa Hikaru also taught her seriously.
Combining work and rest is a good method, but you should also be careful not to play too much.
"Try to do this question."
When it was almost half past ten, Kurosawa Mitsuru wrote something in a notebook and pushed it in front of her.
"See you on Sunday."
There was a sentence written on the paper.
"See you on Sunday."
Shifengyuan Mirai's heartbeat quickened as he wrote down the same words.
Although the handwriting is different, the content and meaning are the same.
She was looking forward to the Sunday appointment and meeting, which was an experience she had not had since elementary school.
…
On Friday, during lunch break, Kurosawa Hikaru had lunch with Miyazaki Yuta.
"Kurosawa, I seem to have really been deceived."
At the dinner table, Miyazaki Yuta was not as energetic as usual, but looked dejected.
"What happened? Didn't it say everything was going well?"
Seeing him like this, Kurosawa Mitsuru was puzzled.
It's only been a few days? And he has also strictly warned me to be vigilant when it comes to money. Logically speaking, I shouldn't be cheated, right
"Actually, I lied yesterday. I didn't go shopping with her after school on Wednesday. Just as you guessed, she wanted me to buy something for her."
"I guessed that you were lying yesterday to save face... Then what? Did you buy it?"
"I bought it, and then helped her deliver the pair of earrings to her doorstep."
"You actually bought it? Have you seen her?"
"She was not at home at the time. She wanted to return the money to me that night. I thought it was only over 10,000 yuan and it was a pair of earrings, so I considered it a gift for her."
"well… "
Seeing that he had fallen into the trap, Kurosawa Mitsuru shook his head helplessly.
Sometimes, people want to be scammed, and even anti-fraud apps can’t stop them.
"Then she video chatted with me. She was very beautiful, just like in the photo, and her voice was so sweet... Then we chatted for half an hour, and she asked me to help her pay for her online shopping."
"What is she going to buy this time?"
"A bag, forty-six thousand eight."
"You bought it?"
"When she acted like a spoiled child to me, I couldn't help myself."
"well!"
Kurosawa Mitsuru let out a long sigh. The methods of this female sea king were still the same as always.
It was actually the same when I first started dating him, but in his previous life, online fraud was very prevalent, and when chatting with people online, he would become alert as soon as money was mentioned, and he would refuse to fall for it. As a result, he was labeled as a hot commodity and sold out.
"I'm sorry, I already reacted after I woke up this morning."
Yuta Miyazaki also sighed, feeling very sorry and gloomy.
Kurosawa had clearly warned him to be careful, but he still fell into the trap.
"Should we call the police?" Kurosawa Mitsuru thought for a moment and asked.
Compared to his previous love trafficking, this time Yuta Miyazaki was truly cheated of his money because it did not cause any harm to his personal finances but only caused mental damage.
"Forget it, just consider it as paying for a lesson... And it would be too pitiful if she was caught by the police."
Hearing this suggestion, Miyazaki Yuta shook his head.
"Should we tell everyone that Akari Tsumugi is a liar?"
Realizing that he was still worried about others, Kurosawa Mitsuru thought about it and suggested.
"Please don't tell anyone. If everyone knew that I was cheated, I would be so embarrassed."
Yuta Miyazaki thought he wanted to tell others and hurriedly stopped him.
The 50,000 yen is not a lot, but not a little either. The key point is that he was cheated of his money through online dating. If this matter were to get out, he would be laughed at.
"All right."
Kurosawa Hikaru actually understood his decision and nodded.
It's just like he can't tell the truth about his broken heart. As a buyer, Yuki can understand it, thinking that Akari Tsumugi is the one who suffered a loss, but if the alumni of the University of Tokyo knew about it, they would be laughed at.
