Chapter 20 Visiting and Win-Win Cooperation
"You got up so early today?"
Liangnai took out a bottle of ice water from the refrigerator and drank it. She instantly felt sober and the effect was immediate.
If Kirihara's mother were here, she would definitely complain about Ryouna again. Kirihara's mother has recently become obsessed with the health regimen of flower growers. Drinking a bottle of ice water in the morning will hurt her stomach.
Ryona just let it go in one ear and out the other. This is how she has lived her life since she was a child.
Because her technique is fire, Ryouna likes cool things and prefers cold food. Even her favorite candy is mint candy.
It's a stronger version of mint candy, which most people can't accept.
Liangnai took another box of ice milk and filled Chihu's bowl. As a shikigami, Chihu likes to eat everything, but he prefers raw and cold food.
The mints have been out of stock for a while and are not available here in Kanagawa. They are only available at a specialty candy store in Tokyo.
This mint candy is an enhanced version of Storm. It initially attracted a group of customers with this gimmick, but its sales gradually decreased.
It was also a coincidence that Liangnai tried this mint candy when she passed by on a mission. Seeing that the boss was about to take it off the shelf, she suggested that he could keep it for her.
Liang Na, who has already earned a lot of savings from the mission, said -
She can invest.
The recent consumption is indeed a bit high. Liangnai thought absentmindedly that she should order more this time and ask him to add more mint.
"What are you thinking about, sister?"
Akaya grabbed Ryouna's hand and lifted it up, straightening the milk carton.
If it weren't for the greedy Chihu who kept catching the milk with his mouth open, the milk would have spilled onto the ground.
"Nothing." Ryona took the milk carton back to the kitchen.
"I said, you've changed your personality by getting up so early today?"
Don’t we all sleep until noon on weekends?
Chiye took a bite of his sandwich and mumbled, "I have to go to the deputy minister's house for tutoring today. Didn't I tell you a few days ago?"
Liangnai remembered that she seemed to have really said it, but she was busy dealing with other things these two days and forgot about it.
"What time is your meeting? Can I come with you? It's nothing special anyway."
Taking this opportunity to visit Mr. Sanada would not be so abrupt and would not attract the attention of people behind the scenes.
"It's at 8:30." Chi Ye thought about it and thought it should be fine, but he still wanted to ask the seniors for their opinions. "Then I'll go ask them."
"Don't ask." Ryouna ruthlessly stopped Akaya's movements and pointed at the clock on the wall.
"It's 8:20 now, bro."
"What?!" Chiye quickly stuffed the last bite of the sandwich into his mouth and hurriedly grabbed the bag.
"Sister! Let's go——"
On the other side, at the entrance of the Sanada family's kendo dojo—
"Everyone is almost here, where is Akaya?" Yukimura counted the number of people.
"47% are probably still asleep, and 56% are probably on their way."
"How lax!" Sanada lowered his hat.
He is late on weekdays and late for tutoring. Chiye must correct this habit.
"I thought I was the last one." Marui Bunta whispered to his partner Jackal, "It turns out there are even slower ones than me. Akaya really doesn't disappoint."
This morning, his two younger brothers pestered him and insisted on dragging him to play games. He finally got away and saw that the time was almost up. Fortunately, he arrived on time and avoided the deputy minister's iron fist punishment.
"Don't worry, Akaya is on his way now."
The smile on Yukimura Seiichi's face grew a little wider, "Ryouna-senpai is coming with Akaya now."
The former is the point that the minister wants to emphasize, and everyone is stunned.
The word "bring" is used very cleverly. Why does it feel like bringing a child of a few years old?
Yanagi Renji wrote down the data and closed his pen. "Without Senpai's company, there's a 79.7% chance that Akagi will get lost. This will mean he'll be 17 minutes later than I estimated."
There are only two reasons why Chi Ye is late: one is oversleeping, and the other is getting lost.
"I'm sorry, seniors, I'm late!" Chi Ye stopped suddenly and bowed ninety degrees to his seniors.
"He set the alarm clock half an hour later, and when he woke up in the morning he thought he got up on time." Ryouna looked leisurely, but her feet were moving quickly.
When Genichirō Sanada heard that Akagi's excuse for being late was so lax, he was ready to take iron-fisted punishment.
Ryona smiled and waved her hands to show that she didn't care.
It's a good thing that someone helps to watch over the stupid Ou Doudou. Why would she stop it?
“It’s really too lax!”
With a "bang", Chiye got a big bump on his head and looked miserable.
Chiye's eyes were dazzled: Sis! Where's the brother-sister relationship we promised each other?
Ryona tilted her head and whistled: Is there such a thing between us?
After entering the dojo, everyone first greeted Mrs. Sanada politely and handed her the snacks prepared for the visit.
"I hope Madam doesn't mind my intrusive visit today. My teacher asked me to visit Mr. Sanada. Is that convenient?"
Sanada Oko was stunned, but her good upbringing allowed her to react quickly. "Could you please tell me the teacher's name?"
Sanada's grandfather, Gen'emon Sanada, has a special status. Even after retirement, some people still try to get close to him and take shortcuts. Sanada Oko is worried that the girl in front of her is being threatened by her teacher.
Otherwise, why would a teenage student come to visit Grandpa Sanada?
"My teacher is Gojo Satoru." Ryouna kindly handed her student ID to Sanada Oko, "The old man will understand once he sees the student ID."
When she heard the name Gojo Satoru, Sanada Oko felt relieved.
On weekdays, she is only responsible for logistics work, but she has heard of the surname Gojo.
"Okay, I understand. Then please follow Genichirō and the others to the Japanese-style room and wait for a while. I'll go and invite my grandfather over."
The tennis club members stared at each other in amazement. Aren't they here to tutor Akaya? Why is the senior visiting Grandpa Uehara/Grandpa Sanada?
Ryouna smiled without explaining and just followed them into the Japanese-style room.
She distributed the snacks she had prepared in advance to everyone, "This is a thank you gift for tutoring Chiye."
Everyone took the snacks, their faces showing curiosity but also fear of offending others by asking questions they shouldn't ask.
Ryona couldn't help laughing. They were still teenagers.
"My teacher recently went on a business trip abroad, and I happened to be on vacation and at home in Kanagawa, so he asked me to visit Mr. Sanada."
Yukimura Seiichi silently memorized the name 'Gojo Satoru' in his heart.
Just now, when Sanada's mother heard this name, her guarded expression relaxed in the next second. It seems that this name has a great meaning.
He didn't want to pry into Ryouna's privacy, but Ryouna's expression in the tennis club last time was not very good.
Others may not have noticed, but he accidentally discovered that Liangnai was covering her ribs and crying out in pain, so she might have been injured.
He was just a little worried that she might be bullied in her new school.
Left-behind children forced to stay in college: Excuse me? Who are you saying is being bullied?
"You don't think I'm really here to tutor Chiye, do you?" She shook her finger. "I've been tortured enough by him this summer."
When Chiye heard this, his defense was instantly broken, "Sister!"
Ignoring Akaya, she took out a notebook, which was the material that Ryona had compiled when she was tutoring Akaya, and handed it to Yanagi Renji.
"This is the information I compiled for him at the time. You can refer to the problem-solving ideas and methods in it."
The information is sufficient, the problem-solving ideas are simple and easy to understand, and each knowledge point is broken down. It can be said that people who have not studied at all can pass the exam as long as they memorize and organize the information.
The more Yanagi Renji read, the more disappointed he felt. He had a new understanding of Akaya's foundation.
"I think that during the entrance exam, the seniors helped Akaye predict the questions, right?"
"Ah, that's true." Liang Na sighed, "After all, this kid really isn't good at studying."
Wouldn't it be better to let yourself go? Ryona is playing badly.JPG
There was a gentle knock on the door of the Japanese-style room. "Kirihara-kun, please follow me to the tea room. Grandfather agrees to meet with you."
"Okay, thank you."
After Ryouna left, the Japanese-style room returned to silence.
Yukimura Seiichi said calmly: "Okay, senior, go and take care of your own business, and then we will also start today's tutoring task."
"Rikkai University has absolutely no blind spots."
The door of the tea room was opened, and Ryouna was kneeling opposite Sanada Gen's right door, looking well-behaved.
Genyoumon Sanada placed the brewed tea in front of Ryouna and pushed her student ID back.
"Your magic world has always disliked us 'ordinary people'. What brought you here to visit me today?"
He sipped his tea, his commanding presence evident, the aura of someone in a higher position for years directed at Ryouna without hesitation.
"By allowing a teenage girl like you to visit me, do you look down on me? Or do you look down on the Japanese police?"
"Old man, what are you talking about? When did the world of spells become the world of spells of those old oranges?"
She had a good attitude and accepted the test and the threat calmly.
"We in the Gojo sect have always been friendly towards the Japanese public security. It is precisely because of our respect for them that I, a direct student of Gojo Satoru, was invited to visit you."
Liangnai showed no sign of timidity and directly expressed her attitude.
"The Gojo Faction and the Jujutsu High School have always wanted to build a bridge of friendly communication with the secular world."
"Times are advancing, and the world of spellcasting should also change its ways. What do you think?"
The ambition revealed in his words made Gen'emon Sanada laugh heartily. It really is true that the young are to be feared!
Those old guys in the General Headquarters of the Curse World are not as bold as the teenage girl in front of them.
"You want to cooperate with the authorities to reform the world of spellcasting?"
As expected of an old veteran who has been immersed in officialdom for many years, he pointed out the purpose of Liangnai's visit today.
"This is a win-win outcome, isn't it?" Ryounai's eyebrows curved slightly, and she raised her teacup to savor the tea.
He lightly dipped his finger in the water and drew a triangle on the table. "The fact that the General Office has gone from a two-way struggle to a three-way balance of power at the beginning is a testament to the ability and determination of our Five Sects."
The General Headquarters has long been divided into two major factions, one is a stubborn and self-proclaimed political faction, and the other is the aristocratic family faction headed by the three great families. Now, through the efforts of the Gojo faction headed by Gojo Satoru, a three-way balance of power has been successfully achieved.
As one of the three great families, the Gojo family is in the gray faction here. Some of them are still stubbornly sticking to the aristocratic family faction, while the other part has already seen through the current situation and decided to follow Gojo Satoru.
"If you wish, then one of the corners of this triangle can become official Japanese."
Ryouna offered an attractive condition, which was undoubtedly impossible for the Japanese officials who had been shut out to refuse.
"Mr. Kirihara, you are truly amazing." Sanada Gen'emon exclaimed again.
The world of spells is about to change.
——
The man with sutures on his head had a gloomy expression. After hearing that Kirihara Ryouna was assigned to protect Atobe Sae, he could no longer hold back and threw the documents in his hand at the subordinate who was reporting to him.
Blood flowed down the subordinate's forehead and seeped into his eyes, causing pain, but he dared not move.
"Is this how you arranged for Kirihara Ryouna while I was away for the past few days?"
Kirihara Ryona has been doing too many little things recently, it's time to teach her a lesson.
Young people must understand that the first bird to stick its head out gets shot.
"Kirhara Ryouna, what do you want to do?"
"...Why did I ignore you before?"
