279: Kuraki-kun's magic
Reiko Kojima is about the same age as the deceased, and she is also a high school student, although she is not from the same school, but she is of the same age and has a very sweet appearance, which is very suitable for clichΓ©s.
This is probably why so many people want to have a beautiful face, in this society, good-looking skins can indeed bring a lot of convenience.
After listening to Shirakawa's mission instructions, Reiko Kojima clenched her small fists, saying that she would definitely complete the task, and then walked towards the door of the Sakagami Palace Private High School with firm steps.
Kiko Kojima couldn't help but have a headache when she saw her sister Riko Kojima so motivated.
Do you really want to ask the families of those who have committed suicide?
Shirakawa patted Kojima on the shoulder, "Kojima-san, come on, you can do it." β
Kiko Kojima thinks that this kind of psychic magic is still useful for her sister's stupidity, but it is completely ineffective for herself.
She was about to make an excuse to excuse herself, but she found that her feet had left the body, and she had an urge to "I can do it" and walked towards the family members who were pulling the banner.
Before she could react, her body had already made a judgment in place of her brain.
When she stood directly in front of the banner, she suddenly felt an unreal experience.
Could it be that what Kuraki-kun said really had magic power?
Or have you bravely stepped out of the psychological shadow and cured your mild victim paranoia?
The families of the students looked at the young woman in a sunhat, sunglasses, and a mask in a fashionable outfit, wondering what the woman was going to do when she suddenly came over, and their expressions became wary.
Kiko Kojima glanced back and saw Shirakawa's hand sticking out of the window and giving her a thumbs up to encourage her.
She pushed her sunglasses, looked at the group of parents who had organized spontaneously, and waved her hand cautiously, "Hello everyone." β
Damn, why should I say hello everyone? They are not in a good state at all, eh, how can they break into this group of people?
An embarrassed but polite smile appeared on Kojima's face.
Tachibana's mother, Mrs. Tachibana, was an honest factory worker who asked for leave from the leader and came here to seek justice with other family members.
"School committee? Did the school committee ask you to come over and talk about the conditions? β
As soon as the others heard Mrs. Tachibana say this, they instantly surrounded Kojima Kishiko, who still had an embarrassed smile on her face.
Most of these family members are women, as men also work outside the home to earn money to support their families, with exceptions, such as those in single-parent families.
Kojima became even more nervous and wanted to retreat, she turned back again, wanting to seek Shirakawa's help, but found that her car had been driven away, and Shirakawa didn't know where she had gone.
Kojima took a deep breath, shook her head and said, "Actually, my child wants to go to school here, but I saw the banner you pulled and was worried that there was something wrong with this school, so I wanted to ask you..."
Before Kizuko Kojima could finish speaking, she was interrupted.
"Lie! How can you have a child, you can tell at a glance whether you have given birth to a child or not. β
Mrs. Big Bear ruthlessly debunked Kojima Ziko, "If you want to disguise yourself as a parent, you can also take a snack if you are troublesome, don't think that we are all housewives and are easy to deceive." β
The look of embarrassment on Kojima's face was even better, "That, Auntie, oh no, big sister, I'm really not from the school committee." β
"It's not from the school committee, is it a TV reporter?"
Mrs. Ernst & Young asked.
Mrs. Hamamoto immediately chimed in, "It's really like a person who works in a place like a TV station, dressed up brightly, with famous brands all over his body, for fear that others won't know that he is rich, and he likes to wear sunglasses and masks when he goes out, thinking that he is a big star." β
More than a dozen parents looked at Kojima again, and the more they watched, the more they felt like people who worked in a place like a TV station.
Kojima took advantage of the trend and generously assumed the identity of the reporter.
"Yes, I'm actually a reporter, I want to interview you about your situation, you can tell me if you have anything you want to say."
"Miss Reporter, why didn't you bring a camera?"
"Miss Reporter, can you show us your ID?"
"Miss Reporter, did you bring a camera and a voice recorder?"
The family members asked questions and looked at Kojima with suspicion, and the embarrassment on the female anchor's face was about to come out of the water.
Just now, I thought that this group of people was so foolish, but now I don't think so at all, obviously they think they are reporters, and now they say that they are reporters, and they don't believe it anymore, what is the reason?
Just as the female Internet celebrity was racking her brains and trying to regain their trust, a camera suddenly focused on everyone.
Although it is not a professional camera, this portable DV is often used as an auxiliary equipment for on-location shooting, and it is completely feasible to fool people who do not know how to do it.
In addition, Shuang Yuezhen used to often like to use this DV to interview passers-by.
Shirakawa happens to find one in Kizuko Kojima's car, which is full of her selfie videos.
Shirakawa, who guessed that Kiko Kojima would fall into embarrassment, took this DV directly and temporarily disguised himself as a photographer.
"I'm sorry, Kojima-san, I'm late, can you start shooting?"
Shirakawa said softly, and held up the DV to cover most of his face to prevent him from being recognized.
Noticing that the camera was approaching, the family members of the deceased stopped questioning Kiriko Kojima.
"There is photography, it seems that it is really a reporter."
"We almost scared the reporter away, we were really reckless."
"Great, I have a bunch of things to say, the black-hearted school, the dead person only paid 200,000 compensation, what can this compensation do? It's too lacking in morality. β
Kubo Daro scolded that he, like Shuichi Kawada and Yuryo Fukunaga, was one of the few male parents present.
As a perennial recipient of relief money for Kubo Daro, the death of a son but only received 200,000 compensation is more sad than the loss of a son, there are two sons and a daughter in the family, all need to be supported, but he is a man with no skills, in his words, it is this fucked life that smooths out all his good qualities, leaving only a stomach full of complaints and dissatisfaction with society.
When the eldest son Kubo Tsunashige was alive, he would take out a sum of money from time to time to subsidize the family, and he would never ask his son where the money came from, but after he died, he could only get this compensation, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had lost.
The other parents' parents frowned at Kubo Dairo, especially Masayuki Otomo and Fukunaga's future father, because of the family's good conditions, they couldn't understand what kind of mood Kubo Dairo was in when he said such things.
They are now protesting with this group of parents, not because they feel that the school is giving too little consolation money, but because they want to get a just result, their children don't seem to be the kind of people who will commit suicide, why did they suddenly die? They can't accept it.
"How can you say such a thing, are you still a father?"
Mrs. Big Bear took the lead in denouncing, although her family conditions are very ordinary, but there is no problem in raising a child, and the child has always been her pride.
Kubo Dairo sneered, "Shaoqing is high, didn't you gather here because the compensation is too small?" I'm just saying what's in everyone's hearts. β
"Who is the same as you, we are not because of this, we just want to get justice for our children."
Mrs. Otomo immediately retorted.
"Seeing that you are wearing famous brands, you must not have been worried about life, how can a person like you understand us, Mrs. Tachibana, Mrs. Uejima, Mrs. Hamamoto, is there something wrong with what I said?"
The people who were named by Kubo were all people from poor families who were not much different from him, and their faces were full of shame, although Kubo Daro said something very ugly, but they did come to increase the compensation they received.
The dead are dead, but the living still have to find a way to live.
"I... I, I think the school doesn't respect my child, the compensation given is too small, my child is so good, at least, at least 1 million. β
Mrs. Ueshima blushed and lowered her head.
Poor, she even thinks that the value of a human life is only 1 million.
Shirakawa looked at her, dressed in cheap expired fashion, her hair was meticulously combed, but the skin on her face was rough like orange peel, her hands were full of calluses, and she didn't look feminine at all, just shoulders and waist crushed by life.
Or maybe it was because she thought of being on camera, although she lowered her head, she still straightened her back a little, and Shirakawa guessed that the work she was engaged in on weekdays should require frequent bending.
"1 million? Your child is worth 1 million? At least 2 million! β
"What 2 million? My child is so good, it's definitely worth 5 million! β
"It's all said we're not in it for money."
"Just pretend, the children are dead, not for money, or for justice?"
"This is the school's shirking of responsibility."
"yes, anyway, it's dead in school, how can the school deal with this? There is no even suspension of classes, and classes are still being held, which is simply not treating our children as children. β
"This black-hearted school, do you still expect it to give you three days of silence?"
"The more I think about it, the more I feel that I shouldn't have sent my child to this school in the first place, my poor ......"
Before Kojima and Shirakawa could ask questions, the group of family members quarreled.
Kiko Kojima was at a loss, she hadn't encountered such a situation before.
Shirakawa coughed twice, "Everyone, please don't quarrel, we will interview everyone, synthesize everyone's demands, and give feedback to the school in a unified manner." β
got the assurance of the "TV station staff", and everyone really stopped arguing.
They all looked at Kojima, looking forward to confiding in her.
Kiko Kojima swallowed and decided to start with the person who seemed to be the best talker, after all, she was also a first-time disguised reporter.
She walked up to Mr. Kawada, who had been quiet, and he was completely uninvolved in the quarrel just now.
There is another chapter at noon, good night!
