4 Chapter 004: The Arrogant Deskmate

(PS: The image is of Suzune Horikita.)

"My name is Tendo Amamiya. Nice to meet you," Tendo Amamiya said with a smile. "You two seem to have a good relationship. Were you friends at your previous school?"

It seems that Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, Suzune Horikita, and Kikyo Kushida, along with the annoying Rokusuke Koenji, had an incident on the bus.

The two students in front of Tendo Amamiya already knew each other. Suzune Horikita looked up at Tendo Amamiya for a moment and then lowered her gaze to the book in her hands.

She spoke in a flat tone, "To make such judgments based on just a few words, I can only say that your judgment is too shallow. Seeing me with this socially challenged person next to me and still being able to say the word 'friend,' my personal advice is that you should visit the infirmary and get your eyes checked."

That's too much... Kiyotaka Ayanokoji couldn't help but turn his head and look at Suzune. Although it was true that he was socially challenged, it was too harsh to say it directly.

Tendo Amamiya jokingly said, "You're quite strict. With that attitude, you won't find a boyfriend."

"It doesn't matter, I don't care about those things."

Suzune Horikita then looked up at Tendo Amamiya and said in a cold voice, "I entered this school with a belief. If you want to get along with people around you, go find someone else. Don't disturb me."

After speaking, Suzune Horikita lowered her head and focused on the book in her hands. Tendo Amamiya naturally didn't continue the conversation to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Tendo Amamiya turned to Kiyotaka Ayanokoji and gave him a friendly smile. Kiyotaka Ayanokoji maintained a calm expression on the surface while his mind raced, trying to figure out how to act like a normal high school student.

Should he introduce himself proactively? Would that seem too familiar? Would it contradict his intended image as an avoidant person? What if Suzune sees through his facade? If his lie is exposed, he might be labeled as a liar. Would it further arouse suspicion from Suzune and Amamiya, leading them to discover his abilities and raise suspicions among the entire class?

A series of questions quickly surfaced in Kiyotaka's mind, only to be swiftly rejected. Since this person named Tendo Amamiya took the initiative to look over, it would be more reasonable for him to start the conversation first. It wouldn't seem unnatural, and he would be able to make his first friend!

Kiyotaka looked at Tendo Amamiya with a sense of anticipation, but then watched as Tendo Amamiya turned around without even looking at him.

"What...?" Kiyotaka felt a bit confused. Is this how high school students are nowadays? Why did Amamiya smile at me just now? Is there something wrong with my appearance? Has the world gone mad, and is this how ordinary high school students behave...?

Kiyotaka reflected on his past observations in his mind.

Tendo Amamiya didn't think too much about it and had no interest in Kiyotaka.

The only success from the White Room.

Having exceptional talent since childhood, Kiyotaka was locked away in the White Room by his father for experimental purposes and subjected to rigorous control and education. It must be said that Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, as the only success, was indeed very successful.

Years of controlled education eradicated any aversion Kiyotaka Ayanokoji had toward the White Room. It even eliminated his emotional connection to the world, leaving only curiosity and joy in learning and growth. It was with the help of a butler that Kiyotaka managed to escape from the White Room.

Also with the butler's introduction, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji came to this school.

A person devoid of emotions like Kiyotaka couldn't be controlled.

At the same time, Tendo Amamiya was well aware of the reason he was assigned to Class D. He was somewhat similar to Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, lacking the ability to trust others.

To Tendo Amamiya, this school was nothing and he disdained it.

The world has always been about strength and self-interest. Unlike Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, Tendo Amamiya desires to inherit the Amamiya family and control the entire Sakurajima.

"All new students, return to your seats," a woman in a professional attire with a tight skirt and a neat ponytail walked into the room, her high heels clicking on the floor.

The noisy classroom instantly quieted down as the students returned to their seats. For students who had just finished middle school, the authority of a teacher was still significant.
