"Actually, according to our revised script, Kanjiro didn't defeat the third bandit." The kendo minister explained:

"To be precise, Kanjiro defeated the third bandit and spared his life, but the other party was not grateful, but instead attacked him, making him almost die."

Just then, a passing ronin swordsman came to Kanjiro's aid. This person's name is [Benevolent Sword Weng], who was once the strongest swordsman in the country of Reed, but thought that his swordsmanship should not be used by the emperor, but should fight for the people of the world and benevolence, so he refused the official position and wealth given to him by the lord of the country, and has been wandering the rivers and lakes since then. ”

"[Kenji Kento] defeated the third bandit and rescued Kanjiro, and after learning what had happened, he escorted him all the way to the Imperial City, and after Kanjiro won the tournament, he served as a witness to help him uncover the conspiracy of Hachijo Kazuo."

"At the end of the story, Kanjiro became [the first sword master of Ashina Province], and Kazuo Hachijo was also punished as he deserved. However, Kanjiro refused the reward from the lord of the country, and instead left the imperial city with the [benevolent sword man], choosing to wander the rivers and lakes and become a wanderer who fought for chivalry. ”

The head of the kendo paused, and looked at Makoto Kyushu with a burning gaze: "As you can see, the character of [Benevolent Sword Man] is carefully designed by us for you. How's that, it's fun! ”

"Sure enough, it's a very decent character, you guys are really well-intentioned~" Kyushu Cheng was also very surprised, thinking that they really wanted to hold themselves up to the sky: "Then what do I need to do, and then I have to come to rehearse with you every day after school?" ”

"Because it's a cameo role, [Benevolent Sword Weng] has very few lines, and it won't waste too much energy from Kyushu classmates." The head of the kendo department hurriedly waved his hand and said, "But this character has a fight scene in the play, I don't know if Kyushu classmates are willing to participate?" ”

"Of course, I would love to." Makoto Kyushu nodded: "Let me see the script." ”

Taking the script from the kendo minister, Makoto Kyushu spent about two minutes reading his part.

In order to minimize the rehearsal pressure of Makoto Kyushu, the kendo club reduced the number of lines in his script to very few. In many places, it is even marked with "free play", even if you forget the lines, it doesn't matter if you are silent, the character who plays the opposite role will say the lines that should be said for him.

Not only that, the character of [Benevolent Sword Weng] is the kind of cold image of a master in the world, and there is no need for exaggerated tones and actions when performing. Even if you just stand on the spot like a stake and read your lines, you will never make a play.

In other words, Kyushu Makoto neither needs to memorize any lines nor superb acting skills, but he can play a role with such a big card, and it is undeniable that he is in the limelight, and the kendo club really respects him.

What Makoto Kyushu needs to worry about the most is actually that fight. In the stage play, he has to engage in a fight with the third bandit, and eventually kills him and saves the protagonist Kanjiro.

And the actor of the third bandit is none other than the [Super First Year Striker] Motaro.

Motaro had wanted to fight Makoto Kyushu for a long time, and he was able to use this opportunity to fulfill his wishes.

"For the next two weeks, our kendo club will have a rehearsal for the stage play of the cultural festival every day after school. But Kyushu students are special guests, so you only need to come to rehearsals once or twice a week. The kendo minister lowered his profile and explained:

"You don't have to worry about the lines, the main thing is that the fight scene, you and Shigetaro had better run in advance, otherwise it will be troublesome if something goes wrong on the stage."

"It's all for me to think about this, how can I have a reason to refuse? I'll find time to come over and rehearse. Makoto Kyushu ended his chat and left the kendo hall.

After leaving school, Makoto Kyushu first went to several part-time jobs to negotiate with the bosses, and finally chose to temporarily work part-time at a café with a good salary after school.

Subsequently, Makoto Kyushu went to the Sunset Detective Agency again and was told that there was no important commission for the time being.

In the evening, Makoto Kyushu returned home and happened to meet Xiaojing.

"Did you just get home?" Kyushu Cheng saw that Xiaojing was wearing a school uniform and carrying a schoolbag, and he should have just returned from school: "Do you have anything to do to stay at school after school today?" ”

"Yes, Brother Cheng." Xiao Jing smiled a little tiredly:

"A lot of things happened today, and I can't explain it clearly for a while~"

"But I'm very happy with you, why don't you have dinner together and talk about things at school?" Makoto Kyushu always felt that his words were like an old father greeting his daughter, but he didn't think too much about it.

The two found a cheap restaurant, each ordered a barbecue rice, and then chatted.

After Xiaojing went to school today, he first encountered the follow-up turmoil of the Ansun Meizi incident.

Because of yesterday's incident, the word "international student" has become a hot topic at Starlight-kan Academy.

I don't know if it's out of sincerity or following the trend, some classmates who originally didn't have anything to do with Xiaojing began to spontaneously come around to talk to her and express their concern for her.

Xiaojing also responded confidently and generously to the kindness of these classmates, and took advantage of this momentum to gain some friends who could talk.

Later, there were many trivial matters, such as the school inviting Xiaojing and other international students to have private talks to discuss the handling plan and compensation for the incident, but in fact, the focus was to hope that they would remain silent to the outside world and not spread negative news about the school.

However, at the same time, the gossip reporters who were in ambush outside the school gate were also ready to move, obviously wanting to dig out some hot news from the mouths of Xiaojing and others, and did not want the turmoil to end so easily.

"Obviously, Ansun Meizi is no longer there, but campus life has become more scary~" Xiaojing drank a taste of soup, and complained helplessly: "However, thanks to Brother Cheng, I won't be afraid anymore." I'll take care of everything. ”

"Then you came home so late today, is it also because of the follow-up incident of Ansun Meizi?" Makoto Kyushu asked.

"Not really." Xiaojing shook his head: "Actually, our school is going to hold a cultural festival recently." I came back late because of this. ”

Holding cultural festivals is a tradition in almost every Wano country university, and although the time of day varies, the life of a university without a cultural festival is as youthful as not being able to eat lettuce and garlic when eating barbecue.

The school also hopes to divert everyone's attention from the atmosphere of the cultural festival as soon as possible, and it is said that this year it will invest more money to make it a little more grand, so that the turmoil of Ansun Umeko can be lifted so naturally.

Xiaojing's class plans to set up a tea stall this year, so they invite Xiaojing to help out, hoping to provide them with inspiration for Chinese refreshments.

As a cheerful female high school student who has been reborn, Xiaojing certainly agreed. So she discussed with the classmates on the class executive committee until the evening, and also formed friendships with them, and exchanged Lines numbers with each other.

"Sounds interesting, I'll come and see it on the day of your cultural festival." Knowing Xiaojing's current situation, Kyushu Cheng was very relieved and began to share his own affairs:

"Speaking of which, I was invited to perform in a stage play at the Cultural Festival, and they gave me a very interesting role."
