“My shoe box is still a mess. Is everyone that bored~”
As soon as I got to school, I looked in my shoe box and saw that it had turned into a trash can.
It wasn’t like this yesterday, so it must have been like this after I left or before I came.
“Sora? Is something wrong?”
“No, nothing.”
I replied while hiding the shoe box with my body so that Amane san wouldn’t see it.
If she were to see this, it might cause unnecessary worry, and if this story got to Misora, it might cause trouble.
It’s nice of her to worry about me, but I don’t think it’s a situation to worry that much.
“Really? Then don’t dawdle, let’s go.”
“Yeah. I’ll be right there.”
After taking a picture of the shoe box with the camera on my phone, I headed downstairs to Amane san’s place.
It’s important to gather evidence, you know.
I’m going to do it whenever.
“Then, I’ll see you at lunch.”
“Yeah, I’ll pick you up at your classroom again.”
“Yes. See you later.”
I saw Amane san go into her classroom and then I went into my own classroom.
As expected, the top of my desk was once again adorned with graffiti and even the photographs of the deceased that I thought had been put away.
How much free time do these guys have?
[He came again today.]
[I really wish he would quit school.]
Words that have become familiar to me these days come flying at me.
I was surprised to find myself getting used to it, but I turned on the button on my chest.
“I’ll have to take a picture of this too.”
I take a picture of my desk with my smartphone.
The people in the class looked at me curiously.
“Why are you taking picture? Did you get excited?”
“I told you not to get involved with me, or maybe you don’t understand Japanese? If so, I’m sorry.”
“Your impudent talk is still the same as ever, Sora.”
I get a little irritated with Satoru who keeps talking to me every time.
In this case, I think it would be better if Runa didn’t interfere at all.
“Impudent talk. That’s you, isn’t it? Every time you come to school, you go out of your way to talk to me. Maybe you like me? If so, I’m sorry. I don’t want a piece of trash like you. So shut your stinking mouth and get out of my sight.”
I’m really annoyed.
Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to get them to hell afterwards.
“You, enough ! ! You’re a sexual predator ! !”
“Don’t grab me by the chest all of a sudden. You’ll stretch my uniform.”
Maintain a relaxed attitude.
This way, I could stir up my opponent even more.
“Cut it out ! You’re a sex offender who forced himself on Runa ! You shouldn’t come to school openly like that !”
“Gggg.”
Ouch/
My head is a little dizzy from being punched in the face so hard.
But I won’t stop stirring it up yet.
“Where is the proof? You’re not making assumptions based on the testimony, are you?”
“That’s none of your business ! The victim said so, and I saw it myself. Don’t try to talk your way out of it now.”
He punches me again in the stomach.
It hurts a lot, but it’s not unbearable.
So, I smile wryly.
“Haha, don’t make me laugh. If it comes to a trial, there’s no way the verdict will be based on the testimony of two people alone, right? If you don’t understand that, you guys are really crazy. And you’re harassing me like this, accusing me of being a sex offender. If a third party were to look at this situation, which one of you would be the criminal?”
I looked around the class as they grabbed me by the chest.
All of them were awkwardly turning their faces away from me.
It was as if they finally understood what they were doing.
“Shut up ! Don’t be fooled. He’s just trying desperately to make excuses.”
“It’s time to let go. I’m not interested in you.”
I forcibly pull Satoru’s hand away.
He hit me twice.
“Remember this, Sora.”
“Ha, you sound like a mob character. Well, I’ll remember it. You’re the one who better remember this, okay?”
With these final words, I returned to my seat.
The first move had been made.
It was a good thing that I got hit twice.
◇
“Sora, what happened to your face?”
As soon as I got to the rooftop, Amane san touched me on the cheek.
A beautiful face is getting closer and my heart is noisy.
“It’s nothing. Besides, today’s lunch box is really delicious.”
“I’m asking you seriously. Did someone hit you?”
“Well, kinda. I mean, don’t worry about it.”
“Of course I’m worried. I’m the one who brought you to school, so if you had a hard time there, it’s my fault.”
“That’s not true. I came to school because I wanted to, and Amane san gave me that excuse. I would never hold a grudge, and it’s not Amane san’s fault.”
This is a revenge I started.
I never want to put that responsibility on Amane san.
This is a stepping stone for revenge.
That’s why I don’t want Amane san to feel responsible for it,
Looking at Amane san now, it seemed impossible.
“But I still wanna hear what happened to you. Is that not good enough?”
Amane san tilted her head to the side and asked me, so I couldn’t make excuses.
“I just got hit.”
“Who hit you?”
“I won’t tell you that much. There’s no need to worry. I just made it happen.”
“What does that mean?”
“Come on, we’re gonna miss lunch if you keep talking like this. Let’s eat quickly.”
Amane san seemed to want to ask me something, but I forcefully changed the subject.
I was a little uncomfortable if Amane san asked me any more details.
“…..I understand.”
Amane san looked like she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn’t ask anything and continued eating her lunch.
◇
“I’ll see you after school.”
“Yeah. I’ll be waiting for you at the usual place.”
Amane san said as she returned to the classroom.
“So, how long are you gonna sneak around in there?”
“You knew, ehehe~”
The one who came out from the shadows was Sugiura Nanami, a junior I met just the other day.
“Well. I’ve been seeing flickers of your hair in the corner of my vision for a while now.”
“Oh my ! That’s how you found me.”
“So, may I ask why you went to the trouble of stalking me like that?”
If she was following me for no reason, she’s simply a scary person.
I don’t want that to be the only reason.
“The reason? What do you think it was?”
“I’m asking you because I don’t know.”
“You’re no fun. Well, it’s fine. It’s easy. I’m watching the whole conversation you had during Christmas, and if you want, I have the data on this phone.”
Sugiura san stuck out her tongue and winked.
You have footage of that time?
If I could get my hands on it, not only could I use it for revenge, but it would be the most powerful reversal move I could make.
“What do you want from me?”
But as they say, there is always a flip side to every good story.
I couldn’t just jump on the bandwagon.
“It’s not that I want something. I just wanna give you this information because it looks interesting. Of course, I’m not saying it’s for free.”
“I see. Is it okay to interpret that you don’t feel like telling me what you want me to do right now?”
“I guess so. Can we exchange contact information for now?”
“I understand.”
I exchanged contact information with Sugiura san and returned to the classroom.
