The Genius Equation

Erigin 10 stories

Summary

Ayato Kurosawa's 180 IQ makes high school a tedious game he's already won. His only problem? The endless stream of love confessions from girls who see a genius, not a person. He rejects them all with cold, surgical logic-until the day a new student transfers in. Kira Vance isn't another admirer. She's a hacker from America with an IQ to match his own, a razor-sharp wit, and a complete disregard for his rules. When a shocking murder on campus frames Ayato for the crime, the police see an open-and-shut case. But Kira sees what no one else can: a puzzle. And she knows the only way to solve it is to work with the very mind they're trying to condemn. Now, the two rivals must forge an uneasy alliance to deconstruct the perfect frame. As they dig deeper, they uncover a conspiracy far deadlier than a schoolyard murder-one orchestrated by a shadowy corporate titan who doesn't want recruits; he wants to own the future. To clear his name and survive, Ayato must learn the one thing his logic never accounted for: how to trust the partner who is his equal in every way. Two brilliant minds. One impossible crime. Zero room for error.
