Quantum Leap: Multiverse Transmigration 27 2.4- The Probe

Time to put my Psychology to its fullest extent. I asked Kagome, "Sorry Kagome, it seems I put you so much trouble for your mother for preparing an extra bento for me."

"Not really Kenzo. My mother ensures that both you and I had a bento each every day at school. Furthermore, you are our tenant in our place so we knew who would be able to provide you with bento for school except for us." she replied without knowing that she had answered part of my queries in my head.

*Ding!*

*Ding!*

Two clear resonance sounded in my head as I scored favorability points with Kagome. Oops... This is not a DS game related kind of fantasy. Must be some Director's mind gone awry after reading too many novels I guess.

"Today is Friday, do you need to run any errands after returning home or run errands straight after school? Do you want me to accompany you later since I do not sense any juku (cram school) coming by the end of school hours? With her face blus.h.i.+ng again she replied, "Yes, please. Please accompany me right after school to the supermarket and help me with groceries. Arigato Kenzo-sama!" she replied to me with a kind of sheepish look.

*Ding!*

*Ding!*

*Ding!*

Another 3 favorability points earned again. Sigh...Director! Stop changing the script!

I knew that most of the students in the cla.s.s are academically above average and there was no need to go for juku to enhance our status even though the exams are creeping near. And spending time after school to shop for groceries with Kagome would be an ideal ice breaker to learn more about this girl.

Furthermore, I learned that I am an orphan and living (most probably) renting a place in Kagome's residence. I wonder how the place looked like and which district we were in. Whether we are cycling to school, walking or simply taking a bus ride to and from home and school... Most importantly whether we are together since I was living there as a tenant. I can't wait to rummage through all the personal belongings of this original Kenzo to find out more about my past and present. Perhaps the future too...

We finished up our lunch and with a gentlemanly act, I gave her a tissue and pointed my face at where she should dab it. She sheepishly took it and wiped at the area I pointed out. Geez... j.a.panese girls are so sheepish looking. Can't help it one bit to mention in this paragraph. Hahahaha.

After lunch, we went to freshen up our faces and returned to cla.s.s. As usual, some students prefer to stay indoors and enjoy the cool aircon breeze (Yup! All cla.s.srooms were fitted with aircon and heaters for both summer and winter cla.s.ses) rather than outdoors in the stifling heat.

As a norm, students would clamor with each other bento box ending up with each other variety of food coming from other students through exchange et cetera. At least their bento box was not the boring stuff and filled with varieties of their own choices. What a fun activity like this type of sharing.

I reached on my school satchel bag and rummaged through the pockets and found what I was looking for. It was a bunch of keys with a fairly large tag on it. I studied it and it says, " House no.8, 1-Chome-5-Ote, s.h.i.+mizu Ku, s.h.i.+zuoka, 424-0808, j.a.pan"

Hmm, this is where I should be staying for the duration of my leap in this era. Nevertheless, I think this place shouldn't be too shabby unlike other pigeon holes type of dwelling in certain parts of Asia, j.a.panese homes were considered as quaint and homely.

Several old receipts were in my bag and upon close study I find it to be rent paid on every 7th of the month and the latest one I had was dated last month for the sum of ¥12,000 or CNY766. Well, I could consider it dirt cheap in the sense of today's currency and if I am working but I am a student now. After rummaging the contents of the bag, I found a clip on a badge of a smiley that states "Yan Ban Sports" with my name etched below. Guess this is where I was working to sustain my survival in this world.

Guess being an orphan and a student has its advantageous especially in paying rents. Hehehehe. I wonder how is the room condition as I am paying at a lower rate than a normal dweller.

I rummaged further and found a smartphone in my bag that was placed in silent mode. I fiddled with it for a few minutes and found my working schedule in the calendar. How fortunate that this Kenzo had marked his working timing and hours worked in his calendar for monitoring.

Good...making me free the whole of Friday and working full hours from 10 am till 6 pm on both Sat.u.r.days and Sundays. I would then work from 6 pm to 10 pm making 16 hours from Monday to Thursdays and another 16 hours on both Sat.u.r.days and Sundays. The timesheet program in the phone states I was paid ¥960 per hour so I would make an approximately ¥23000 - ¥25000 on a good month. Not bad though even its a paltry amount at that time what could a student asks for more, right? It's better than nothing.

I happened to fiddle with the smartphone some more and discovered that I had a savings of over ¥255,369 balance in my NNTB when I accessed its online banking. NNTB was the Nippon National Trust Bank, or just Bank what we called in short. Not bad for a student who works parttime and skimping on expensive clothes and indulging into sumptuous dinners.

I guess staying in the lower parts of a j.a.pan such as s.h.i.+mizu would save a lot since its not as trendy and flashy like Tokyo and its neighboring bustling towns. It's a bit laid back here with quite a number of districts and small shops unlike giant superstores and supermarkets around huge bustling cities.

So this is Friday, and I won't be working in the store so I could spend precious time with Kagome and her family and catch up with all the necessary information that I need to gather.

I kept wondering how busy is the Yan Ban Sports going to be on the coming Sat.u.r.days and Sundays what I would be working instead of being lazing around at home. Guess this is a change I have to face besides being a lazy laid back dude in the 1st serial.

The next cla.s.s started and another teacher walked in. I used to wonder about the j.a.panese education system, unlike some Asian cla.s.ses where we need to rush around to our respective cla.s.ses to fit our current streaming. I guess in j.a.pan it's totally different from being in other Asian countries and we all learned the same subjects by staying back on our own cla.s.srooms.

The day ended while the school bell rang three times in succession. The cla.s.s turned rowdy once more as students a.s.signed to sweep the floor picked their brooms and dustpan. Another group was a.s.signed to clean the blackboard and the duster and off they went to clean and wipe them off with a damp cloth while the dusters were brought outdoors to be knocked together to get rid of the dust into the air.

Another group was a.s.signed with mops and would move in once the a.s.signed students had finished sweeping the floor. The whole cla.s.s was suddenly turned busy but orderly as they cleaned the cla.s.sroom for the weekend. They were chatting excitedly as they moved about the ch.o.r.es while I and the other male students arranged all the chairs on top of the tables and lined them up accordingly.

I love being in a j.a.panese school right now, everything is so orderly except the incident at the toilet of course. Hahahahaha. How could one forget!

After about 15minutes or so, everyone had performed their task and left the cla.s.sroom. I noticed a group of juvenile students was sent to wash the toilet as I understand that there were no janitors a.s.signed to the school or schools throughout j.a.pan as well.

People may find it weird but it's the truth! j.a.panese students clean the whole school inside out all by themselves and the schools benefit by not hiring extra help for maintenance except for gardening and educators and security they were handled by the experts. Hehehe.

So much for the education part of j.a.panese culture.

I waited for Kagome at the main gate of the school. There weren't any scooters or mopeds around to ride so I a.s.sume the school students either come to school by walking, riding their bicycles, using their kick-about scooters or being sent by their parents or guardians by their Nissan, Honda or Toyota.

A group of teachers was also at the main gate acting as stepping up security measures as students make their way out of school. It was customary in j.a.panese school to practice that and all students bowed their heads and thanked their Senpais before leaving with their awaiting parents or guardians or on their own for the majority of them.

A group of my earlier cla.s.smates as I recognized them to be Aki short for Akitos.h.i.+, Chika short for Chikas.h.i.+, Ein short for Einsuke, Genji and Itaru walked towards me; each of them was walking abreast with their arms on each other shoulders.

"Hey Kenzo, want to join us for some Pac.h.i.n.ko games after this? We could have a barbecue later and some drinks and sing karaoke afterward before heading home... You are not working today right? Or... You have other plans?" asked one of the guys in the group.

" Well, I kinda promised Kagome to do some groceries shopping afterward and also to help carry that awfully heavy stuff for her. I don't think a girl like her is strong enough to carry bags of groceries home herself." I explained myself at the same time finding an excuse to hang around Kagome and to find out more about myself. I am sure I do have the guys contacts and make a mental note to repay their invitation after work on a Sat.u.r.day instead.

"Nah, it's alright for you to hang out with your apple of the eye. Hehehe... We won't disturb you two lovebirds. But next time we won't forgive you if you don't hang out with us OK?" one of them made a shooing off gesture to me jokingly and pointed to Kagome who had exited the school building with her group of friends namely Ayumi, Chiya, Emiko, Hideko and Megumi with different hair colors and types such as Pink, Blonde, Green, Purple and Cyan while Blue stands out the most as it belonged to Kagome.

The group of boys bowed together at the teachers and left the school ground while the girls separated themselves and Kagome stood beside me and bowed to her friends and teachers. We walked separate ways and headed down the street.

I can't help myself by looking at this girl who was walking beside me, clutching her satchel bag with two hands and placing it in front of her. An awkward way of waking if you ask me but in an anime type, it's quite typical. As for me, I was holding my satchel bag over my shoulder on my left side while walking with my hands deep in the pockets.

I didn't notice the small pebble that was on the ground and I accidentally stepped on it and somehow lost my balance. I tried to regain my balance but with one hand in my pocket, while the other was holding my satchel bag in the other, I stumbled and swerved in the direction towards Kagome!

"Eeeeekkkk...!" she screamed as if I was a large c.o.c.kroach and banged into each other and both of us sprawled on the ground; me being on my b.u.t.t while she was somewhat in an awkward position on top of me. Her skirt was upturned upwards exposing her fleshy and springy cheek b.u.t.ts that I had ever seen and a pair of white lacy panties barely covering it.

My face turned red at the magnificent sight while hers turned pale and red afterward as she picked herself and found that her cheek b.u.t.ts were exposed nearly directly at my face.

"Offpphh..." I muttered as she hit my face with her satchel bag when I was still on the ground. "What is there to see? Was there anything to see? What did you see?" she asked flabbergasted as I was rubbing my face where it was. .h.i.t by her satchel bag.

"Not my face again..." I thought and rubbed at its soreness. Twice in a day but I can't deny that I had seen a magnificent view of one said to look downwards and saw heavens. Hahaha.....

"You...!" Kagome shrieked as she raised a hand to strike down on me....
