Chapter 277 Yanyun-chan, you've really done us a disservice!
"Shirogane, do you have time to open the door now?"
On the second floor of the Shirogane residence, Uchiha Ryo stood outside the door. Only after hearing the words "Please come in" did he mentally prepare himself before pushing open the bedroom door.
Just as Xiao Gui said, the ground was covered with crumpled and tattered pieces of paper.
"Uchiha, you've arrived..."
Miyuki Shirogane turned around and stood in front of the desk, seemingly using his body to cover something.
"Hey, you're the student council president now, don't make your younger sister worry. I understand that we're all eager to 'stand up' at this age, but there has to be a limit, right?"
Under Shirogane Miyuki's questioning gaze, Uchiha Ryo glanced at Shirogane's bookshelf.
"Where did you hide it?"
"Wait a minute, what exactly are you talking about as soon as you came in? Where did you hide that thing?"
Uchiha Ryo said calmly, "It's that one... Hey, don't think I don't know, okay? Remember when I went to Toyonosaki as an exchange student last semester? I started a club there, and the artist in it drew this."
Miyuki Shirogane frowned, seemingly recalling a famous online artist that Ryo Uchiha had once mentioned...
"So you're not going to buy a physical copy? That makes sense. Then you should use your phone less in the future. Remember to set a password for your phone so that Xiao Gui doesn't see anything inappropriate."
Uchiha Ryo stepped forward and patted Shirogane Miyuki on the shoulder meaningfully.
"Don't worry, I understand. I'll go downstairs later and tell Uncle Baiyin and Xiaogui that you must knock before entering the room in the future, and don't take out the trash can on your own. It's normal for the trash can to smell."
"And you too... Remember to wash your hands frequently."
".....ha??"
Shirogane Miyuki took a few steps back. "What do you even know? Or what kind of person do you take me for?! You didn't already tell Kei and the others, did you?!"
"Ah, is it not what I thought? Shirogane, you are climbing the ladder to adulthood on your own."
"Absolutely not!"
Uchiha Ryo turned his head and focused his gaze on the scraps of paper on the ground.
"Where are you looking? These are just letters I'm preparing to write! They're all handwritten, you understand? Uchiha, do you understand the romance of using handwritten letters in this information age?!"
Shirogane Miyuki took the initiative to clean up the trash that had been thrown on the ground, while Uchiha Ryo picked at his ear, pulled up a chair, and sat down beside him.
"So, what happened? You've got a pen pal?"
Miyuki Shirogane chuckled awkwardly. "We're not exactly pen pals. We started by contacting each other via LINE email, and then we wanted to try a different way of communicating."
Uchiha Ryo frowned. "Shirogane, you didn't get scammed online, did you? There are more and more online scammers these days. Besides, is it reasonable to change the communication method from online email to a physical email address? Couldn't you at least meet up and have some physical intimacy?"
"Your statement is unreasonable!"
Uchiha Ryo sighed. "Let me tell you a story..."
"I know someone who comes from a privileged background and holds a high social status. But because he met someone online in an online game, and after several months of communication, he found himself becoming a villain in Gotham City."
"You're probably aware of your family's situation. What if this guy, who you might know from an online friend or pen pal, says he doesn't have enough money and asks for your help?"
Shirogane Miyuki scratched his head. "It won't involve money... I just went up to comfort her because I saw her always complaining."
To prove that his intentions were purely out of kindness, Miyuki Shirogane publicly shared his LINE email chat history.
The incident occurred about five or six days ago when LINE, a chat application, adopted the "message in a bottle" feature from a certain online platform, allowing users to post anonymously and have their messages randomly received by other users.
While browsing the internet out of boredom, Shirogane Miyuki received a complaint from an anonymous user.
Based on the complaining email, Shirogane Miyuki deduced that the person was probably a female classmate from Shuchiin Academy, and wondered if he should try to comfort her.
After all, he was the president of the student council of Shujiin University. If any student came to the student council classroom for help, he would definitely help them.
Uchiha Ryo said, "You're actually a pretty nice person."
If you keep reading, the first thing you'll see is the girl's complaint.
First, about a few months ago, this girl revealed her gender while playing an online game because she was criticized for being bad at it. Then, a netizen offered to play with her in the future.
The girl was happy to have a skilled player to guide her, so after playing together for a few weeks, the player actually offered to spend money on her account? He even bought her VIP membership, which greatly surprised the girl.
However, since it was the other party's initiative, even if the girl wanted to refuse, the money had already been transferred.
Later, after learning that the girl was a student at a famous local university, the netizen became even more excited and played games with her, even spending money on in-game purchases for her.
The girl felt really bad and was thinking of ending it there, but then the person she met online invited her to meet... and she refused.
Surprisingly, netizens somehow found out where the girl worked and disgustingly sent her a catgirl outfit!
The girl refused, but a few days later, a nurse's uniform was delivered! Then came a Gothic Lolita dress!
So the girl blocked the online friend. The internet is really dangerous—Amen.
Miyuki Shirogane gritted his teeth. "The most famous academy in the area is Shuchiin, right? So after receiving this anonymous complaint, I also spoke anonymously with her."
"Wait a minute!"
Uchiha Ryo frowned. "You know what...you really don't know what he's thinking! Is it really what he's thinking?!"
"Why does this plot feel familiar? It seems like I've heard different versions of it somewhere before!"
Shirogane Miyuki coughed lightly and continued.
"Then we chatted anonymously for a while, and she complained to me a lot, like having a scumbag older brother who always exploits her at work. You tell me, a guy like that is absolutely disgusting! Making his sister work and stuff like that..."
"And that scumbag of a brother of hers actually made her take out a loan, and she still has to pay it off for more than a year! Seriously... people these days..."
Miyuki Shirogane smiled. "Later, I also complained to her about life. Not only did I have to work to support my family, but I also had to maintain my grades so that I could hold my head high."
Perhaps it's because anonymous complaining really does improve one's mood. By anonymously venting her frustrations and anger towards her scumbag brother, Shirogane Miyuki is actually quite happy.
But just a few days ago...
Although we had a great chat, I'm not planning to add you on LINE. I don't even know which city you're in. How about this... I'll write you a handwritten letter. If you receive it and reply within a week, we might become long-term pen pals. —Anonymous
This was the last message sent by the other party. A few days earlier, Shirogane Miyuki had also successfully found the handwritten letter in a glass bottle outside a café called Cloud Cat.
Uchiha Ryo fell silent: "..."
What could he possibly say? Anyway... Yanyun-chan, you've really done us a disservice!
