Why does Hisada have to go through this? What did Hisada do? It’s so sad that Hisada, who did nothing wrong, has to go through this.
She was shaking the whole way to the infirmary after that, so I’m sure she was really upset.
I had made up my mind not to forgive her, so I came to school early in the morning. Given what happened with the blackboard yesterday, there’s a high chance it’ll happen again today. So today, I’ll wait for the culprit and catch them first. And I’ll put an end to this ridiculous harassment.
“It was you after all.”
Shibamura Misaki, who had just entered the classroom, suddenly said that. What the hell is she talking about?
“What?”
“What? Never mind. Why don’t you stop writing graffiti on that desk?”
Yes, I was writing graffiti on Hisada’s desk.
Shibamura told me to stop, so I put the cap on my pen and put it on the desk.
“So?”
“So what?”
“You called me here, didn’t you?”
Yes, I was the one who called hier.
“You put this in my bag on purpose.”
Shibamura took a piece of paper out of her bag and showed it to me. I had put it there yesterday without Shibamura noticing.
“I’m glad you came willingly.”
Well, I knew she would come because I wrote that I would tell everyone that she was bullying Hisada if she didn’t come.
“You figured it out, didn’t you?”
“But that’s weird. We didn’t do anything.”
“Hmm.”
I just nodded along casually.
“The blackboard was there before we arrived, and the writing wasn’t ours.”
“Really? Anyone could have written that, right?”
There are people in the world who make money by imitating other people’s signatures, so it’s not as easy as imitating writing, but it’s possible to make it look similar.
“The graffiti you just wrote and the writing on this paper are exactly the same.”
“Is that so?”
“There’s more. You rolled up your pants at that time because you got water on them when you poured water on Hisada, right?”
“No? It was hot that day, and I tend to get hot easily.”
It was about 30°C that day, so it’s not strange that you did that because it was hot.
“Also, there was no physical education class yesterday, but for some reason, she brought jersey, which was also strange.”
“…”
“Don’t you think it’s natural to be suspicious when so many coincidences happen? It would be strange not to be suspicious.”
“…”
“Say something.”
“…As expected. All correct, well done.”
I applaud Shibamura. She seems strong and cool.
Yes, we were the ones who wrote on the blackboard and got it wet. Of course, Hisada also cooperated with me.
The blackboard thing was done with the janitor’s help, sneaking into the school at night and writing it together. Writing all those insults alone would be exhausting. That night was nerve-wracking, but it left me sleep-deprived.
The soaking wet thing was also my doing, and I rolled up the hem to hide the wetness. I didn’t expect the reason for rolling up the hem to be discovered.
She’s really smart. That’s why the bullying wasn’t discovered until the cultural festival in the original story.
I heard the footsteps of two people coming down the hallway. It’s almost time.
“So, this is the gift I made.”
“Huh? …What?”
Saying that, I tossed the pen I had just closed the cap on to Shibamura. Shibamura reflexively caught the pen I threw at him.
Oh, she caught it.
“What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly ask me to come to the classroom?”
“I’ll tell you when we get to the classroom.”
Hisada and the teacher entered the classroom.
While we were talking, Hisada called the teacher to the classroom. Well, this was also part of Hisada’s and my plan.
“Huh? Isn’t that Shibamura and Mizuno?”
The teacher who entered the classroom noticed Shibamura and me.
“Teacher! Look at this!”
I pointed to Hisada’s desk, which was covered with graffiti.
“What’s going on? What is this?”
“I saw Shibamura writing it when I came to the classroom!”
“Did Shibamura do this?”
“It wasn’t me! Mizuno came before me and wrote it!”
“But look, teacher! There’s a marker in Shibamura’s hand! She wrote it with that!”
I gave Shibamura the marker earlier for this very purpose. The fact that Shibamura caught it on the spot was your downfall.
“So it was you after all. Rumors were spreading that Shibamura and her group did it.”
That’s right. The first blackboard incident was to make everyone aware of the bullying, and then spread rumors that Shibamura and her group did it. I stood at the teacher’s desk to draw attention and made the situation bigger than it needed to be.
I got soaked to make the teacher aware of it. Of course, when the teacher investigates who did it, the students’ rumors reach his ears.
Rumors among students spread quickly, so in my previous life, I don’t even know how many times my crush was known to the entire student.
This time, there’s no way to deny it—I saw it with my own eyes. …But it was me who did it.
“Wait! Look, this paper says to come this morning, and Mizuno… Hmm?”
She tried to give the teacher the paper I had given her yesterday, but no matter how much sheI searched, she couldn’t find it.
Hisada-chan had secretly taken it while Shibamura, the teacher, and I were talking. Hisada-chan showed me the paper, and I gave her a thumbs up and mouthed “Nice” so that only she could see.
As expected of Hisada-chan! Maybe she was a kunoichi in her previous life?
“Wait! Teacher! It wasn’t me! Mizuno did it! Mizuno did it all!”
Shibamura made a last-ditch attempt to excuse himself by saying I did it. Well, it wasn’t an excuse—I actually did it.
“What are you talking about? Mizuno wouldn’t do that.”
That’s right, Mizuno Shota has an extremely high approval rating among the teachers. He’s always joking around, but they trust him not to do something like this.
On the other hand, Shibamura and her friends aren’t very well-liked, so if you ask me who to believe, I’d obviously believe me.
“Come to the student guidance room for now.”
“But…”
“Didn’t you hear me? Come to the student guidance room.”
“…Yes.”
Shibamura gave up making excuses and followed the teacher.
Oh, I have to finish the final touches on the plan.
“I’m glad I’ve been behaving myself. After all, everyday behavior is important.”
This is the plan to tie up loose ends. It worked perfectly. …Right?
When I finished the final touches, Hisada looked at me with a disgusted expression. After all, Hisada doesn’t seem to like the name of this plan.
Shibamura didn’t take her eyes off me, no matter how far away she was. I felt like if I took my eyes off her, I would lose, so I didn’t take my eyes off her until she disappeared from view.
“Well, it worked out well.”
It would be bad if the teacher asked me, so I made sure she was out of sight before talking to Hisada.
“…Yeah.”
“Actually, Shibamura knew it was me who did it.”
“That was dangerous.”
“But thanks to Haruka’s acting, everything worked out. Everyone was fooled by that sad face.”
The rumors spread because of the sad acting of the guy on the blackboard and Hisada, who got soaked.
“And stealing the paper from Shibamura was a huge help. Thank you. Oh, were you maybe a kunoichi in a previous life? Can you use the art of seduction?”
Hisada glared at me.
“Sorry, sorry. Just kidding.”
Hisada seemed to be used to Shota’s jokes, and I thought I saw her smile a little after I said it was a joke.
“Should we punish her a little more so she won’t touch Haruka-chan for the rest of her life?”
“No, that’s enough.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. Anyway, an emergency school-wide assembly will be held soon, and this will spread throughout the school, leaving her with no place to go. Then she’ll have to live her precious high school years being looked at as a bully. Three years as an adult and three years as a high school student are different in value.”
She was thinking that far ahead.
“And…”
“And?”
“You’ll protect me again, right?”
Zukkyun! That was unfair. She completely stole my heart.
“Yes. Definitely.”
No one would refuse such a request. Besides, Hisada-chan’s reliance on me was proof that she had opened her heart to me, so I wanted to live up to her expectations.
“Thank you for helping me today. Thanks to Haruka-chan, everything worked out.”
I came up with the plan, but I actually got in the way quite a bit, so Shibamura almost noticed, and in the end, Saotome found out too. The plan worked because Hisada was there.
“…….”
“Huh? Did you say something?”
“I didn’t say anything.”
“Come on, say it again.”
“…”
I was ignored.
But I’m not a deaf protagonist, so I heard you clearly.
Thank you.
…Sorry I’m late.
The desk is covered in doodles, but what should I do…? I wasn’t thinking.
