Chapter 39: Chapter 39: Stock Market Genius; Yui Hirasawa and Pochita
However, before Haru could ask Haruno anything, Haruno smiled and spoke first: "Kohai-kun, you're so confident about entering the stock market, you must understand it very well."
"No, I actually know nothing about the stock market."
After being stunned for a moment, Haru directly told the truth.
Admitting to being a rookie wasn't a big deal.
This was a perfect excuse to ask Haruno for advice about stock trading.
But Haruno's pretty face stiffened.
Seeing Haru's single-minded desire to register a stock market account, she had thought this guy had studied the stock market for a long time before deciding to make money through stocks.
She never expected this guy to say he knew nothing about the stock market.
"Wait—"
Haruno's face was somewhat rigid, "Kohai-kun, you don't understand the stock market, but you still plan to make money by trading stocks?"
There has to be a limit to being overly ambitious, big brother!
Haruno suddenly regretted helping Haru register the stock market account.
What if Haru lost money? No, with Haru's approach to stock trading, he would definitely lose everything.
Then wouldn't she become an accomplice?
She began to consider whether she should take the account back.
Haruno couldn't just watch Haru jump into the deep pit that was the stock market.
"I can learn, Haruno-san." Haru's eyes flickered, then he said with feigned confidence, "My learning ability is very strong. Give me a few days, and becoming a stock god will be easy."
Stock god? Do you think you're Warren Buffett?
Haruno looked at Haru with annoyance: "Kohai-kun, people need to have self-awareness. A rookie who doesn't even understand the stock market, wanting to become a stock god before even entering the field, should at least have a deep understanding of the stock market before saying such boastful words!"
A flash of brilliance passed through Haru's eyes. This was exactly what he wanted to hear.
He immediately said with feigned seriousness: "Haruno-san, what level of understanding of the stock market do you think I need to reach to be considered deeply knowledgeable, to be qualified to challenge becoming a stock god?"
"Kohai-kun, did you even understand what I meant?"
Haruno Yukinoshita was speechless for the first time.
Her meaning had been so obvious, yet this guy actually interpreted her words as teaching him to become a stock god.
What kind of logic was that?
She suddenly understood Shizuka's feelings a bit.
"Please don't worry, Haruno-san. I still have self-awareness about myself. I know very clearly what I can and can't do."
Haru realized that Haruno wasn't as easy to fool as Shizuka Hiratsuka, so he immediately had an idea and decided to change his approach.
He smiled: "Haruno-san, feel free to give me some suggestions. Perhaps someday when I become a stock god, I'll repay Haruno-san."
"You're still talking about being a stock god."
Haruno rolled her eyes. Why was this kid so stubborn?
Feeling the mysterious confidence emanating from this guy, Haruno was also tired.
But seeing Haru's determined expression, she also knew that she probably couldn't change Haru's decision, so she could only say:
"Fine, if you really want to enter the stock market, at least first buy some books about the stock market. Read at least ten or twenty books first, and memorize all those basic concepts by heart before talking about anything else. Forget about becoming a stock god, at least you won't lose so miserably."
[Ding, suggestion received: Read twenty professional books involving stock market knowledge and memorize them completely. Reward: Stock Market Genius]
Haru was immediately delighted, saying happily to Haruno: "Thank you, Haruno-san. When I become a stock god, I'll definitely treat you to a high-end restaurant."
With this reward in hand, he wouldn't have to worry about money in the future.
Moreover, the suggestion Haruno gave was almost effortless for Haru, who had the talent of perfect memory.
It was ridiculously easy to complete.
"I really don't know where you get your confidence."
Hearing Haru still thinking about becoming a stock god, Haruno was extremely speechless.
She secretly resolved that when Haru actually started trading stocks, she would keep a close eye on the account situation.
To prevent Haru from really losing all his money in the stock market.
After all, this kid had no other income. All the money he had now came from his parents' inheritance. Once the inheritance was used up, even going to school would become difficult.
Sobu High's tuition wasn't low.
After saying goodbye to Haruno, Haru immediately ordered twenty professional books online with satisfaction.
Through the conversation with Haruno, his boiling emotions caused by Yukino had gradually cooled down.
It was time to find Pochita and complete today's task.
He had already asked about Pochita's class when they parted on the train, and soon he arrived at Pochita's classroom.
As soon as he walked through the door, his expression became strange.
"Goto-san? Are you okay, Goto-san? Why did you hide in the box?"
He saw a cute girl with short brown hair carrying a guitar, looking panicked as she called out to a box on the ground.
The brown-haired girl had two yellow hair clips on the right side of her bangs and a cute face.
She had a slender, petite figure with her legs wrapped in smooth black pantyhose.
She gave off the air of a naturally airheaded, confused little person.
"It's actually Yui Hirasawa. These two ended up meeting each other."
Haru's mouth twitched.
Yes, that brown-haired girl was none other than the main heroine of K-On!, guitarist Yui Hirasawa.
And Pochita, as the main heroine of Bocchi the Rock!, was also a guitarist.
The main heroines of two rock anime had actually met because of the merged world.
Haru found it quite miraculous.
But thinking about it, with Hitori Goto's ultimate social anxiety, the reason these two met was obviously that Yui Hirasawa had approached Pochita.
At this moment, Haru noticed a guitar case placed beside Pochita's desk.
"Could it be because of the guitar..."
Haru vaguely grasped the truth.
"Hey—Goto-san!"
At this moment, Yui Hirasawa's small face was extremely panicked.
She cupped her hands around her mouth like a megaphone, calling softly to the person in the box.
"How did this happen?"
Yui Hirasawa was completely confused.
She had seen a girl at school suddenly carrying a guitar, and as a guitar beginner, she immediately rushed excitedly to the other's classroom, wanting to get acquainted.
Unexpectedly, when that girl saw her approaching, she immediately got scared and hid in a box.
She didn't even dare to speak.
What was going on?
Meanwhile, inside the box, Hitori Goto's small face was streaming with tears, regretting her stupidity: "Wuu wuu wuu, how could I be so stupid?"
"I brought my guitar to school to make friends."
"But when someone approached me, I got so nervous I couldn't speak."
"What should I do now? When other classmates see me like this, they'll definitely think I'm a weirdo."
Hitori Goto was so frustrated she wanted to die.
She didn't know how to handle the current situation.
And Yui Hirasawa was now equally panicked and at a loss.
She didn't know what she had done wrong.
Just when both adorably clumsy guitarists didn't know what to do—
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly rang out to Hitori Goto:
"This classmate, you're scaring my friend."
