The consequences of being popular

After the 2 days off, Jin returned to school normally, during those 48 hours the news about his story and the photo taken by a well-timed reporter began to make the rounds around the country.

Jin was already nationally known for being a serious victim of such events, but he was also recognized for his strong willpower because he went to confront his aggressors and put them in their place, both physically and legally. This earned him a fan base of mostly women, who see him as a sort of tragic novel hero.

Above all, his appearance with foreign features that gives him that image of a nobleman in decadence who is looking for a way to get ahead, even though he has everything against him, that makes women of various ages including some adult women see Jin as a very attractive character out of fiction.

When Jin saw that kind of things he felt a big headache, he doesn't want to be popular or attract attention as a kind of novel protagonist, he just wants to live in peace and have a good time with the people he cares about.

When he arrived at the school, he noticed several meanings in the looks of the students of the school, most of them were women's looks that contained an appreciation and affection as if they saw something they should protect.

Several girls approached him to say words like: are you feeling well, are you in pain, do you need help, do you want me to hug you, could I hold your hand, do you have a girlfriend, can you give me your social networks, etc.

There were girls who even subtly offered him lewd activities to quite extreme points, that left Jin with blank eyes and he began to ignore each of those people who offered him something, he did not need pity or help from anyone.

The moment he entered the classroom the female students who were there began to look at him with almost the same looks of pity and wanting to help him, of course the looks of the men were not at all kind since only his appearance was enough to steal the attention of the girls, now with his tragic story he would receive twice as much special attention from the female students of the school.

Jin could only sigh silently as he sat on his bench table, he knew that there could be side effects from what he did, but he never thought that they would be so exaggerated, he understands a little that they look at him with pity, what he does not understand is why the girls bother him so much with wanting to help him or treat him as if he was someone who needed some special help.

If he needed help he wouldn't ask for it from high school girls but from professionals and experts in the field.

.............................

Miyuki watched Jin enter the classroom and sit in his seat, for her Jin didn't need the looks that all the other girls give him, she thinks that Jin is more than self-sufficient based on the attitudes that his new way of being shows, besides she still thinks that his change of attitude and personality is very mysterious.

Thinking about it for a moment, she decided to take the first step to approach Jin, being a fan of mystery stories, she would like to meet someone who has a veil of mystery in his person, so Jin fulfills her expectations.

She got up from her seat and walked towards Jin, that caused several people in the room to be surprised by her attitude of wanting to approach Jin, most of the classroom knew Miyuki for being one of the 5 most beautiful girls in the school. In fact, the first grade of the school has 3 of the 5 most beautiful girls of the school, among them also her friend Honoka and another of her friends.

The other two in the ranking are from second year so it is quite surprising that the first years have 3 girls in 3 of the ranking positions of the most beautiful girls in the school.

Jin was checking his cell phone, when he perceived that someone was approaching him, a beautiful woman with long black hair and a voluptuous body was the person coming towards him, Jin knew this person, rather the other 'Jin' knew her, of course not to the level of calling each other friends, but he knew that she was his classmate and he also knew about the ranking of the 5 most beautiful girls in the school.

Watanabe Miyuki: 158 cm tall, F-cup breasts, has nice legs, nice personality, but keeps certain distances with people she doesn't consider friends, her family owns a few electronics stores so she is considered to be economically in a nice level, her grades are always around 85 and 90, so she is considered an intelligent and beautiful woman, a great combination to be a good sentimental partner for anyone.

All that information came out from the chat groups of the men in this school, the previous 'Jin' was able to observe some of the information from those chat groups by some coincidence.

Considering that level of profiling, Jin thinks that the person or persons who did it may have some talent to be police criminal profilers.

While he was thinking about the information that appeared in the memories of the previous 'Jin', Miyuki came up to him and started talking to him.

"Hello, can I talk to you?", Miyuki spoke to Jin with a slight smile.

Jin looked into her eyes and saw some nervousness in them, although her voice didn't sound nervous and her attitude was calm, the window of the mind and heart never lies, her look told Jin that she feels nervous to talk to him, that caused Jin a bit of confusion since according to the memories he got from the previous 'Jin', this girl had only talked to Jin a couple of times and the reason for that was for school stuff.

"…Why?", Jin asked a question with his typical cold expression, he doesn't care about the ranking of beautiful girls in school, he didn't understand the reason for this girl's approach towards him.

"Hmm, are you annoyed with me or with everyone at school?", Miyuki asked him another question, but this time with a hidden meaning, she wanted to know what were her chances of approaching him.

"I don't understand your question, if I was upset with you, believe me you would notice...", Jin smiled coldly at Miyuki's question, it's funny for her to believe that he would care if someone came to help the previous 'Jin'.

"Ara~, so you don't resent me personally, that's good, then, could we talk?", Miyuki was a little relieved because Jin didn't resent her, she thought that maybe her chances to get close to him are not close to 0.

"Sigh~, I didn't think you were the persistent type, what do you want to talk about?", Jin sighed lightly and answered Miyuki's question.

"Giggle~, but it won't be now since classes are about to start, let's talk at recess time, besides I want to bring Honoka and another friend, so we can talk together…", Miyuki gave Jin a wink and a mischievous smile, then returned to her seat.

Jin was confused by her 'strange' attitude or at least for him, it was strange that she talked so familiarly with him, as if she was his friend from long time ago, those kinds of people were usually very social, but supposedly the information about her said that she kept some distance with people who were not her friends.

.........................

When the digital clock of the classroom marked 08:00, teacher Akechi entered the classroom with his typical affable expression, he took a look around the classroom and when his gaze was placed on Jin, a complex expression formed on his face, but he quickly hid it and began to talk to the students.

"Young students, the new school principal requests the presence of all the students in the school auditorium, so please let's go there in order...", after finishing his comment, the students of the classroom, as well as Jin, accompanied teacher Akechi to the school auditorium....

In the auditorium several groups of students from different grades were already seated in the corresponding areas, Jin observed for a moment the environment and noticed that the 'gal' girl he had saved before was waving her hand to call his attention.

He ignored the girl's gesture and quickly looked for a seat in the area, he found an unoccupied chair so he decided to sit in that chair and close his eyes a little bit to wait for the speech of the new director to begin.

A beautiful woman who had been checking her cell phone, managed to see out of the corner of her eye that a person sat in the chair next to her, that made her stop paying attention to her cell phone and look carefully at the person who came to sit next to her.

When her gaze was fixed on Jin's face a somewhat surprised look formed on her beautiful face, she knew this guy or rather, as the situation is now it would be strange not to know him, the beautiful girl lowered her gaze to observe Jin's hands and there she saw what she had seen before, but in a video or in a photo.

Seeing so closely the scars on Jin's wrists, she felt something moved her heart and for some reason she decided to stretch her hand to reach Jin's hands, when her hand was a couple of centimeters away from Jin's, she quickly realized her mistake so she stopped with that action immediately.

"You seem to have a pretty strong curiosity...", Jin opened his eyes and looked towards the beautiful woman who was about to touch his hand.

"Ah, no, sorry, I don't know what happened to me a moment ago, forgive me if that caused you any discomfort", the beautiful woman felt embarrassed for her previous action that she ended up apologizing to Jin.

"...Sigh~, it's okay, don't worry, besides it seems like your intention wasn't malicious", Jin absolved the girl and told her not to worry.

"Yeah, I didn't mean to do something bad to you, it's just... I just wanted to know if it hurts or something?", the beautiful girl explained what was going through her mind when she did that previous embarrassing action.

"Hmm, no, it doesn't hurt, it would be weird if it still hurts to begin with...", Jin had a strange look on his face when he answered the beautiful girl, he felt that woman was talking nonsense.

"Is that so...by the way, I'm Ichijou Akeno, I'm a second year here, so that makes me your senpai, giggle~ , nice to meet you, Enfield-kun...", the beautiful girl named Ichijou Akeno introduced herself to Jin.

"Ichijou?...an ojou-sama?, hmm, looks like I don't need introduction...", Jin understood the identity of this beautiful woman, her family as well as the Himegawa are part of the 4 most powerful families in Japan.

Although there is also another information about her that is less relevant than the previous one, according to the ranking of beauties of the school, she occupies the second place: Ichijou Akeno, 17 years old, classroom 2-A, 162 cm tall, F-cup breasts, beautiful facial features, bearer of the sexiest and prettiest legs in school, long light brown hair, playful and friendly personality with her friends, she has no male friends but does not get along badly with her male classmates, her family is one of the most powerful in Japan so approaching her can only end in a possible big failure so it is only recommended to watch her but not to approach, relevant data: she is skilled in karate and judo so she knows how to defend herself very well, also her best friend is the woman ranked 1 in the Kuoh high school beauty ranking.

This information was taken from the chat groups of the male students of the school, so Jin could more or less know who he was dealing with, although he must say that this information is so complete that it must be that a group of admirers of this woman made it so meticulously.

"Hmpf~, I don't like being called ojou-sama...", Akeno, pouted in slight annoyance that Jin called her ojou-sama, she doesn't like that word as it feels very cold.

"...", Jin just looked at her sideways and closed his eyes to ignore her, I understand that this woman has a playful personality which can cause certain things that Jin prefers not to happen.

Akeno was surprised when Jin did not play along, she knew that many guys aspire to flirt or date her, but because of her family background no one has approached her or if they approach her it is because they have ulterior motives with her, that's why most of her friends are girls, since men usually only see her lewdly or seek to seduce her to join the Ichijou family.

For her Jin is not showing off or pretending to be interesting, the painful events he lived through, his cold personality and those blue eyes that look at her in an indifferent way, all those factors tell her that he really doesn't feel interest in her, that caused inside her a feeling of attraction towards the rare and unknown, she thought that maybe she can have a lot of fun with him, besides she is one year older than him, so she can use her senpai status to approach a 'kouhai' who needs her help.

"Giggle~", not knowing where she got the courage from, with a swift movement she tried to grab Jin's hand with her own.

Jin reacted quickly, once Akeno's hand grabbed his hand, he used a wrist lock (wrist luxation) technique to restrain her from making mischief.

"Ohh~, do you know how to play with judo techniques or is it BJJ you are using?", Akeno performed a counter luxation and managed to grab Jin's hand again.

Jin narrowed her eyes at Akeno and performed another wrist luxation technique towards her, which Akeno countered so the two started a small battle of luxation and counter luxation techniques between them.

What they did not know was that this little battle that looked like a naughty game between two people who were flirting with each other, was being watched by many people, among them was Miyuki who had a shocked and somewhat envious look for the way Jin was playing with Akeno senpai, her friend the gal girl named Honoka, also had a somewhat jealous look of how a woman managed to capture Jin's attention and was even able to play with him.

After 7 minutes of a small battle with Akeno, Jin noticed the stares of the other students and quickly kept his hands in his pockets that way the mischievous woman next to him will have no way to touch his hand.

"Hmm~, why did you stop, ahh~, are you embarrassed for the others to see us playing, then, we can play in a place with less people if you want...", Akeno felt that she won the game so her tone became more playful and even without her noticing she was flirting with Jin to get his attention.

"... It was my mistake to have fallen into your game, I accept it, but if you think you beat me you are wrong... that wasn't even 10% of my skills, besides the speech of the new principal is about to start so you better behave yourself...", Jin didn't accept that woman talking to him as if she was the winner of the match, so he warned her that her true skills haven't been revealed yet.

"Giggle~, you're funny, Enfield-kun, no, Jin, could you pass me your cell phone number or your social networks...", Akeno laughed happily at Jin's attitude of not wanting to lose, so something inside her wanted to keep playing with him, but she knew that part of what he said is right so she only asked him for his cell phone number or his social networks so she can be in contact with him.

Jin knew that if he kept quiet on this issue she would not leave him alone, that would cause him problems in several ways, so he gave her his LINE (app similar to whats app) to keep quiet.

Akeno quickly added Jin to her own LINE and stopped bothering him for the moment...

Soon the new director appeared on the stage of the auditorium and started her speech...
