Today was Saturday, the mini weekend for Japanese high schools, with only half a day of classes. As soon as school let out at noon, Kiyomi Liuli didn't even wait for that jerk Nanahara Takeshi and ran straight home, planning to use Nanahara Takeshi's "golden signboard" to convince her mom that she could get into the top thirty without attending cram school.
She was in a hurry. If her mom had already signed her up, it would all be over. As soon as she got home, she started looking for someone and finally found her in the backyard kitchen, cautiously asking, "Mom, are you preparing lunch?"
Kiyomi Koko glanced back at her and said indifferently, "No, I'm making elixirs."
