Chapter 12 – 2.4 Jime
– Dripping.
When I opened the door, everyone in the classroom focused on me.
It seems that class has already started.
“Sorry. It’s a bit late.”
“That, yes. Sit down.”
Ask for the teacher’s understanding and sit down…… I want to sit down
Come to think of it, I don’t know where my seat is.
‘Nives. There.’
As I was looking around, Akane, who was sitting in the front seat, pointed at an empty seat with her finger.
I waved my hand to say thank you and went to my seat.
『Wow, the blonde bully is here now.』
『Why didn’t you just rest?』
『Ah~ The atmosphere isn’t good again~.』
『To erase the teacher just because he pulled his hair. Power is good.”
『If I hate Knives, will I die too?』
『With the president’s power on his back, he behaves as he pleases. I have no luck.』
“Scared.”
…… Hmm.
Although I can’t say that my reputation is usually good.
How did it get worse today?
Was it the effect of killing Tanaka?
If that’s the case, I can’t help it.
Still, I thought everyone would be relieved if Tanaka died.
I thought it would only hurt my reputation.
Anyway, how did the rumor spread like this?
Besides, how did I know that?
Huh.
You don’t have to worry about the evaluation of the small puppies anyway.
That’s how I was drowsy, using the mind that cursed me as a lullaby.
Then, at some point, the atmosphere in the class changed.
“Come.”
I didn’t even have to look to see who was coming.
It’s Yuuki.
– Tak-tak-tak. Drooling.
Haha, sorry for the delay!”
Yuuki apologized in a slightly higher voice than usual.
This time, attention is focused on that.
“You are late. Please come on time next time. It is a nuisance to other students.”
An old teacher who, unlike when he spoke to me, gave solemn advice.
“I’m sorry.”
Yuuki bent over him and apologized.
On the other hand, all the classmates who saw such Yuuki gossip.
“She really has become a woman.”
“How?”
『Drug Side Effects?』
“It was as Tsukimiya said.”
“Can she suddenly become a woman?”
『I’m a woman, but why a man’s uniform?』
“Gender reassignment surgery?”
“Suddenly how?”
“Kurosaki…… I was aiming.”
Hmm.
How do you tell these guys at a glance that they are women?
It took me a long time to tell the difference between Yuuki and I, who had been together for such a long time.
Because it’s good to have a good time.
I’m calmly thinking about that.
“Wow!”
– Wadang tang tang.
Yuuki, who was trying to get to the empty seat, tripped on something and fell spectacularly.
I reflexively tried to jump out and stopped.
“Student Kurosaki! If you come late, please sit quietly!”
“I’m sorry.”
Yuuki apologizes to the old teacher once more and sits down with a limp.
After that, the sound of giggling laughter echoes.
『Kick kick. Watch your step, Kurosaki-chan.”
I had to lie face down at my desk until class was over.
Or else someone will look at your distorted face.
* * *
During the morning class, I diligently gathered information.
Normally, in a crowded place like this, I narrowed my mind to Yuuki.
Then you can avoid noise because Yuuki blocks all annoying radio waves.
Yuuki is like a walking human jammer to me.
When Yuuki is not there, on the contrary, it spreads widely.
Then the noise fades away like white noise and doesn’t bother me too much.
In that state, I will sleep on my stomach.
There’s no one to touch it, so it’s really comfortable.
But today I didn’t.
He worked hard throughout the class. The petty minds of my classmates.
The number of people in this class is 4 males and 11 females.
The reason why there are so few men in the class is because they were conscripted during the Great Disaster and died that much.
At least there are at least 4 males in our class, but the gender gap is even wider in the generation older than us.
Oh Here too, among the 4 males, Yuuki became a female, so now it has reached 3:12.
Anyway.
The situation itself became known in less than 10 minutes.
That everything was in the palm of Tsukimiya Akane’s hand hers.
Yesterday and this morning.
During that short time without me and Yuuki, Akane had taken control of the entire class.
Originally, Akane was the leader of a girl group.
The leader of the male group was usually Yuuki, but since there are more females in my generation, overall Akane’s influence on her was strong.
Excluding me and Yuuki, there are only 2 males and 11 females.
Although on such a small scale, Akane quickly took over the class with her unique leadership of her.
Well, it’s good so far.
With or without us, it would have been only a matter of time before Akane took over the class.
However, it was absurd that Akane, who dominated the class like that, had done that.
The fact that Yuuki became a TS was already spread through Akane yesterday.
And the reaction of the other kids to this is, like Akane, ‘feeling bad’.
If Akane had appealed, ‘Let’s comfort Yuuki who is suffering,’ she would have followed Akane and comforted Yuuki.
But Akane didn’t.
She Treated Yuuki’s TS as ‘something that feels bad’.
The class leader, Akane, had identified Yuuki as the target of Ijime.
Knives also experienced it when he was young, but Ijime is no joke in this garbage worldview.
The level of bullying in Korea literally turns it into a level of “Kid’s play.” It makes me want to die right now.
At least, Knives survived because Yuuki, the hero of justice, stepped forward and became a breakwater, but this time, the target of the bullying was directed at Yuuki himself.
In this class, there are also children who like Yuuki deep down or want to help.
However, the moment she goes against Akane’s will, Ijime’s arrow is directed at her.
Moreover, she cannot be stopped by her own opposition to her, and the number of victims only increases to two.
Under these circumstances, it would be an unreasonable request to ask Akane to rebel.
It was something only Yuuki could do.
Even so, Ijime didn’t start right now.
The biggest reason is because the country exists.
These guys were looking at me right now.
How would I react to the bullying of Yuuki?
Originally, the bullying would have already started, but the problem was that I erased Tanaka yesterday.
Knives, who borrowed the prestige of a tiger as the student council president, decided that there was nothing good about him.
The reason I crossed my legs when Yuuki first entered was probably to see my reaction.
If I had started there, I would have revised the plan led by Akane, but for now, I was silent.
I pretended to sleep on my stomach throughout the class so that it would not be strange no matter what stance I took later.
While I still didn’t know how to get out, the other kites couldn’t touch Yuuki.
If even I don’t help Yuuki, Ijime will start.
…… First of all, before coming to the academy with Yuuki, they had talked about the ‘strategy’.
Let’s pretend we fought each other for the time being.
Knives and Yuuki in the original story also quarreled and drifted away, and the humiliating insects took advantage of that opportunity to come in.
This time, I intended to use Yuuki as bait to lure in the humiliation insect and strike it down.
But I’m in trouble.
That wasn’t a strategy with Yuuki in mind of being killed by Ijime.
If the operation proceeded according to the plan, I would have to watch Yuuki get killed.
Yuuki who saved Knives from Ijime’s swamp.
Can I just watch that Yuuki get hit by Ijime?
──The time to make a decision was approaching.
* * *
“Knives!”
Lunch hour.
A disgusting sign approached.
This is Akane Tsukimiya.
“It’s lunchtime. Wake up.”
“Turn it off…….”
Akane shakes me up and wakes me up.
I struggled to raise my head and stretched out.
“…… Whoa. Already?”
“Sleep all day! If that’s the case, what are you at the academy for?”
“What are you really coming for? Sleep at home.”
“I’m tired. Classes are not fun.”
“Because I can’t dry it.”
Akane spreads her bento on my desk as if it were natural.
I rummage through my bag and take out my packed lunch.
Yuuki was watching us all alone, forgetting his lunch box and peeking at us.
“Nives. How did you become friends with the student council president?”
“Just. I happened to see it.”
While eating a bento, Akane starts digging for information.
That’s why I didn’t want to do anything noticeable.
“Isn’t that just? Yesterday, I even held hands with the chairman.”
-Dalgrak.
Yuuki’s chopsticks fell to the floor.
Yuuki, did he become a woman and his grip strength weakened?
“Don’t say things that will make others misunderstand. It just lifted me up from a fall.”
“Still. Isn’t it normal for the chairman to hold hands with a man naturally?”
“I don’t know.”
“Is it related to ‘that incident’ last year?”
“Well.”
Knowing that I had no intention of speaking about the president, Akane changed the subject.
“Nives. Did you know that Kurosaki became a woman?”
“…… I saw you in the morning.”
You’re just getting to the point.
Anyway, is it Kurosaki?
I tend to call everyone by their first names because it’s annoying to tell them apart, but Japanese people don’t call people by their first names unless they’re very close.
Normally, Akane was calling Yuuki by her first name her as a sign of her friendliness her.
Calling Akane by her surname her, Kurosaki, could be seen as a mark of separation from Yuuki.
Like a wicked bitch.
“What do you think of Knives?”
“What?”
“Because all the kids hate it. Aren’t you We are friends.”
“Under!”
Akane’s words of her, which she seemed to be concerned about Yuuki, were so similar that I sneered.
Thanks to that, even my clumsy acting became more realistic.
“Friend? I? With a pervert who pretends to be a woman?”
-Dalgrak.
Yuuki’s chopsticks fell to the floor once again.
Yuuki doesn’t even think to pick up the fallen chopsticks, kicks out of his seat and runs out of the classroom.
“Yuki!”
Akane calls Yuuki sadly.
The corner of Akane’s mouth her was ugly.
“It’s done with this. There is no one to disturb me now.”
Huh. It’s ridiculous.
Even though she’s twisted, I thought that her love for her was sincere.
That’s why I was just watching the relationship between Akane and Yuuki.
But as soon as Yuuki turned into a woman, this was the attitude.
If I had known this would happen from the beginning…
“Nives. The president is looking for you.”
“Five. Senior.”
A familiar SS senior was standing next to me before I knew it.
When did you come? Are you a ninja?
I hid my groaning inside and smiled happily.
“Should I go now? I am eating.”
“Stop talking and follow me. The president is waiting for you.”
No matter how big my liver is, I’m not out of line.
Let us quietly follow.
“Have a good trip, Knives~.”
Akane, who was very happy, waved her hand to see her off her.
…… Hang on for a few days, Yuuki.
I’ll pay you back many times what you’ve been through.
