“I’m still working for the student council. See you later.”
As she watched Reito’s back as he returned to his work at the student council, Anri saw with her own eyes the message that came to her smartphone. The message was sent by a mail function that is now considered old-fashioned, and her eyes widened. The reason was that the sender of the message was Nanamori Misuzu.
(Misuzu ……?)
Why? How? Even if it was a prank, who was it? Once all the possibilities flying around in her brain were cleared away, Anri looked over the message.
[Waiting in the student council room]
The content of the message was light for a reopening e-mail. Anri let out a sigh of relief. It seems that her fears about what to do if the message contained a curse were unfounded.
The only question that remained was what was the purpose of this e-mail. Anri decided that it was better to move than to think and headed for the student council office.
The student council room is next to the staff room. It was unlikely that anything strange would happen. Anri headed to find out who sent the letter.
At this time of the day, there are few people in the main school building because of the cultural club’s lecture in the gymnasium. She runs through the corridor, which looks different from the one in the daytime, and goes up one staircase at a time. She arrives in front of the student council office. Anri exhaled and opened the door. The door was open.
(…… nobody, there is no one)
The student council room was deserted.
Perhaps because it was a place where all the rowdy people usually gathered, it seemed all the more lonely.
Anri was relieved, thinking that it was just a prank email, when she heard a voice from behind her.
“Hey, Anri-chan.”
“Manaka-san…? And you’re the one who sent …… “
“Geh, Yamanashi Anri…….”
“Eh? What are you two doing?”
“Even Tsukishiro-san ……”
Anri can’t hide her confusion as familiar faces keep showing up. It’s hard to imagine that they are the kind of people who would send prank emails.
“What do you want here?”
“I’m not here on business or anything, darling called me …….”
“Senpai asked me to come to the student council office too. ……”
(…That’s strange. Sendou-kun should have just returned to work. Even if he really did gather them, why did he have to go out of his way to call them to the student council room? After all, this is the complete opposite of the gym…)
Something is not right. something is fishy. Anri was doubting this situation.
It was then.
“Hey, pretty girls, how nice of you to gather here, huh?”
“Who is ……?”
“You ……!”
A man appeared from the stairs. The man’s signal was followed by a flurry of men coming out of the stairwell and the staff room. Anri and the others were pushed into the student council room.
Anri was horrified. She looked at the man’s face and understood the culprit and purpose of this situation. It couldn’t be anything other than what Anri was surely thinking.
“W-What are you trying to do!? I’m going to tell senpai……!”
“Oh~~~, that senpai isn’t here. I’m the one who called you, right?~”
“Haa? What in the world ……?”
“I think you already know that, don’t you? Hey, Yamanashi Anri.”
“..that…..”
Yamanashi regretted her actions.

At the same time, Reito and the members of the student council gathered behind the gymnasium.
The lectures for the upcoming cultural festival will basically be conducted by the cultural club leaders, but in the event of an emergency the student council will have to respond. This is the meeting to be held for that purpose.
“Reito, what’s up with Tsukishiro-kun?”
“I haven’t heard from her. …… She hasn’t responded to my calls on the intercom, so maybe she’s taking a long time to work?”
“I don’t think so. The main school building is empty at this time of the day. It’s not a busy time of day.”
“Then what is it, ……Ah?”
Just as he was talking about Miyabi, Reito’s smartphone shook. Miyabi’s name appeared on the screen. Reito answered the call without any delay.
“Hello, Miyabi? What are you doing right now ……?”
“Hello, Sendo-kun? Long time no see, huh?”
“Who are you, ……?”
The person who answered the call was not Miyabi. Reito suppressed his leaping heart and assumed a high-handed attitude. He knew instantly that he was in an emergency situation.
“You remember the name Kyoda, don’t you?”
“Kyoda-senpai ……!”
When Reito mentioned his name, the faces of the student council members froze. Because he should have already been expelled from school. The fact that he has now made a call on Miyabi’s phone means that he is the cause of Miyabi’s tardiness.
Reito turned on the speaker for the call. The members of the student council listened to what Kyoda said and did.
“… where is Miyabi?”
“You’re so impatient. Miyabi is safe and sound, so don’t worry. Of course, we won’t harm her. For now, though.”
“What do you mean? Don’t be so presumptuous.”
“I want revenge on you. Right now, in this student council room, besides Miyabi, Yamanashi Anri, Hoshirobe Manaka, and Shinomiya Yuika are also here.”
“Huh…?!”
“I have many other comrades here. We’ve taken over this school building.”
“…… What do you want?”
“I told you. It’s revenge. Because of you and Yamanashi, I’ve suffered a terrible fate. It’s not me who should be in this situation, it’s you.”
“How can you say that after sleeping with someone’s girlfriend? With your intelligence, wouldn’t you have been expelled anyway?”
“I’m not going to fall for that cheap provocation… I wonder what would happen if you called the police.”
A disgusting sweat broke out from Reito’s body. There is no way this could happen at a time like this. He tried to escape from the situation by saying that it was some kind of dream, but reality never changes. It was a moment that made me realize that nothing is impossible.
“But it’s boring to just take revenge, so I’m going to give you mercy. Come to me in 10 minutes and I’ll think about it. …… Then, good luck.”
With these words, Kyoda unilaterally hung up the call. Reito put the phone away in his pocket to hide his shaking hands.
What should I do? What is the right thing for me to do? After frantically adjusting his cluttered thoughts, Reito turned his body to face the school building.
Just as he was about to start walking, Reito’s feet stopped. Uryu was holding Reito’s hand.
“Wait. Don’t go, Reito.”
“Chairman……”
“No. The right thing to do here is to call the police.”
“Did you hear what he said earlier? If you call the police, Yamanashi and the others will….!”
“Did you hear it yourself? The school building is now occupied by Kyoda’s friends. In addition, he is in the student council room. The student council room you know? What is the room next to it? The staff room is probably not functioning. If you jump into a room like that, you’ll only cause one more victim.”
“But!”
“I said no! It is the role of the student council president to protect the safety of as many students as possible! Right now you are about to commit suicide! They may have weapons. You are outnumbered. You think you can handle this situation alone? You think you can just let your anger get the better of you? Don’t make me laugh! Cool your head!”
Reito could not refute anything. He wanted to run out right now. He wanted to go to the main school building to help. But that’s not going to happen. He was so frustrated by his inability to do anything about it that he was afraid he would be defeated. Reito was tormented by feelings that he had no way of dealing with.
Seeing Reito standing there, Uryu exhaled with a puff of air. Then she adjusted her glasses and showed a determined look on her face.
“Okay, sermon over. Now it’s time to deal with the problem. Guren, take care of Reito.”
“Yes,. I’ll see him safely to the student council office.”
“Eh…….”
“Kyoda’s friends should be in the school building right now. They’ll no doubt be causing trouble in various places to get in Reito’s way. Ryo, can you handle them?”
“No problem. I’ll do my best for the first time in a long time!~”
“Banno, you’ll provide rear support here. If you see any movement from outside, report it to us via intercom. Jindo, you keep watch to make sure the comrades don’t come into the gym. I’ll identify the cause…. Reito, I believe you’ll definitely come back.”
“President ……!”
“It’s the student council president’s job to protect the students. I’m used to these kinds of problems. As long as I’m here, no one will get hurt.”
Uryuu grinned. She had no intention of stopping them from the start either.
“…But how did they manage to get in? There are no shortcuts in the school, and the discipline committee should be checking the admission tickets in front of the school gates…”
“…… Oh, so that’s how it is. I see, that makes sense. ……”
“Reito, did you find out who did it?“
“Yes. Maybe the culprit is …….”
Daito told everyone the name of the culprit who brought this on.
“I see. ……. Come to think of it, he is still in the school.”
“Oh, that’s him. …… Why haven’t you expelled him?”
“I don’t want you to tell me. It’s up to you to decide.”
“Well, anyway. Talking like this isn’t going to solve the problem!”
“I agree. …… gentlemen, let’s get fired up!”
“…. heroes have so many things to protect.”
Time remaining, 8 minutes.
