Volume 2 Chapter 3 Part4-6 (2/2)

“I’m envious of your homeroom teacher and your class”

It feels like our homeroom teacher has no sense of ambition and no desire for uys are failing—great!”

“I think it would be great to s so to be helped by the enemy”

“I mean, it feels like this is a proble ground”

We were being pitied, even by the other classes

It shows the lack of enthusiasm Chiyabashi+rsensei has for her students

“I e could switch teachers”

“No, I think there are a other probleht back on the time I met Hoshi+nomiysensei She seems like a whole different set of troubles

“Ah, it’s so hot here”

Ichinose took out a handkerchief with a cute panda on it and wiped the sweat from her forehead Our thick uniforms trap the heat well

“A school that turns on the air conditioning 24/7 even when the whole building is empty is bad for the environuess You’re an interesting one”

Ichinose laughed even though the line wasn’tto laugh at…”

“How about we exchange contact addresses to o smoothly in the future?”

Horikita sent ive her yours”

“If you’re fine with ot it”

I only realized after we exchanged addresses, but , I have a lot of girls’ contact addresses

Granted, I only have seven addresses (three of which are girls’), even though it’s the beginning of July

So it

This is unrelated, but Ichinose’s first name is Honami

Youkoso V2C3 Part 5

TL: qbo to her y so that ould come to trust her She decided to ask for per, but I didn’t think it was necessary for her to restrict herself that ht that Horikita would go her oay, but she followed ”

She said politely, even though there was no one else in h it’s only Horikita in the room with me

“Oh, by the way, do you also have a key?”

“To this room? Ike-kun asked me if I wanted one, but I refused”

As expected of Horikita It seems like she’s the only one with common sense around here

“After all, it’s rare forto your rooht?”

That reply was also within my expectations I’m totally not hurt

I totally didn’t think, “It’s harsher than I expected”

“Why are you tracing out characters on the ith your finger?”

“To hide the unrest inpart is that she doesn’t have any ill intentions

If I brought it up to her, she’d probably go, “I only said the truth”

“I want to hear what you think about Sudou-kun’s case again Also, I think Kushi+dsan’s actions are a bit troubling”

“Wouldn’t it have been better to have participated fro if you’re worried about the situation?”

“That wasn’t possible I couldn’t accept the person in the beginning I’, I still think it’s better to abandon hi the e to miraculously prove him as innocent, do you think he’ll be helpful later? I think that it’s quite likely that our help will backfire”

Her eyes said, “Do you knohat I’ to say?”

“Is it for Sudou’s sake that you’re giving up on proving hi him take the punishment?”

Horikita had a discontented expression, but then looked like she understood so that it would be very difficult to prove Sudou-kun innocent considering his personality, right? It et punished Especially for those who hate hi the saht?”

I feel like I’ve been cornered, unable to get away If I try to forceit, she’ll just deliver the final blow

“Well, isn’t that obvious to anyone with a bit of thinking?”

“Probably It’s not like Kushi+dsan’s group hasn’t noticed It’s just that they believe Sudou-kun and working with the class to try and disprove the lie They don’t understand why this incident happened and the urgency of the situation at all”

Her re her classmates were considerably harsh

“At least Kushi+da is trying to help after understanding the situation already”

“After understanding the situation? Is that so she realized by herself?”

“Huh? No, that’s…”

“You told her, right?”

It felt like I was being interrogated Scary

“Getting old test questions, buying points on a test… I’ but even then… I’ person

“Don’t overestihed—that’s not what I meant to do However, she i, you’re a mystery You’re the hardest person to predict in the class Tactful yet idles often, and is never constant It’s like you’re in a separate category of ‘cannot be categorized’”

“All of those are questionable descriptions Not what you’d say when you praise soht? However, Horikita looked atyour true ability You usted”

…I see I wonder if it’s norether

Soht blunder onthat I usted is too much Koenji is somewhat siood If she related hily easy to understand—after all, he’s smart and athletic His behavior is the only problem, which is explained by the tords ‘self-conceited’”

Actually, it’s fairly easy to understand Certainly, Koenji’s way of life is pretty siood teacher”

If I became a teacher… I feel like I’d be just like Chabashi+rsensei

Youkoso V2C3 Part 6

TL: qbomb

Editor: None Yet

On this campus, there are four dorms Three of them are for the students; the students stay in the saned to in their first year for all of high school In other words, this dorm was used by last year’s third-years The last dorm is for the teachers, and for all the live-in e mall

In other words, since all the first years were in the sa, it was inevitable that people froet to meet

I locked eyes with a person who had been a coer until now

“Thank you very er noticed me and called out toYou’re early”

Long, wavy hair and wide eyes Chest straining the second button of her blazer Her posture matches her personality, and what charms me is how cool she is, rather than her looks It was class 1-B’s Ichinose Honami

“I woke up earlier than I expected What were you talking about with the er?”

“A few people froathered all the opinions and relayed it to the e and noise”

“You did?”

Usually, complaints or issues about the rooms were handled individually I wonder why Ichinose collected their opinions

“Good irls alked out of the elevator

“Class rep? Why class rep?”

I’ve never heard of that before There are no positions like that here

It doesn’t look like they call her ‘class rep’ because she studies too much

“I’m the class rep for my class”

“Class rep… do all the other classes have one?”

Normally I’d be surprised, but our homeroom teacher would’ve probably decided to leave that out

“No, we just n a few roles”

I understood what she was saying, but it’s not like ere going to assign a class rep anyway

“By any chance, do you have any positions other than class rep?”

“Pretty much Whether or not they’re useful is a different question, but we do have other roles like vice class rep and secretary It’ll be useful whenever we have sos on the spot, but that ht become troublesoroup of boys and girls at the library so her role as class rep back then as well

Usually, most people wouldn’t want to be part of a class cos and have to participate in discussions fro the initiative, things probably went a lot suess you’re like the leader of class B then”

My honest feelings leaked out

“Are you thinking of so this for fun Also, there are a surprising amount of people who cause trouble There are a lot of issues”

As she said “There are a lot of issues”, she laughed in delight Taking advantage of the current situation, alking to school together

“Do you usually leave later? I never see you at this time

Ichinose asked a har a template

I felt somewhat accomplished when I heard those words My relationshi+p with Ichinose will surely groith small talk like this

“There’s no need to leave so early, so I usually stay in et there just on tiot closer to the school, the nuh, a nuirls turned towards us with jealous looks Is this my popularity phase that’s rumored to come three times in a lifetime? Since it’s never happened to ht ti, Ichinose!”

“Good , Ichinose-san!”

Ichinose irls

“Wow, you’re popular”

“Since I’m the class rep, I just stand outhumble, it seems like that’s what she truly believed

It seems like she naturally attracts the attention of nearby people

“Oh, right Did you hear about summer break?”

“Summer break? No… isn’t summer break just summer break?”

“There are rumors that our vacation will be on a tropical island”

Speaking of which, soet when, but Chiyabashi+rsensei said so about a vacation

“I can’t really believe it, but do we really have a vacation?”

It probably isn’t just a trip… Look around and seriously think about

It isn’t an exaggeration to say that this school goes all out Going to a tropical island during su the winter

…It’s very suspicious I don’t think the school is that nice There’s definitely so around I wonder what Ichinose thinks

Without having to ask, I could tell from the bitter smile on her face

“It’s suspicious I think that’s one of the turning points”

“In other words, this e in the class points?”

“Yea, yea This ht have more influence than the midterms and the finals Otherwise, the only difference between the classes would be these test scores This trip is so that the school could separate us”

It wouldn’t be strange for a big event to happen soon…

“What is the gap between class A and B?”

“We have about 660 points, so around 350”

It was a given that the nu of the year, but it’s a how many points they held on to

“There haven’t been any otherclass points other than the midterms, so it was unavoidable that we lost some points After all, class A also lost a few points in the beginning”

However, class A was able to gain a net positive with the recent midterm

“You don’t seem very worried about your class points”

“I do care about it, but there I think that we have a chance of hts in preparation”

I think that the first part that statement is correct

However, that’s only possible because they have a solid foundation

We’ve only got 87 points We’re not close to even co with the other classes

“I wonder how s”

It probably won’t be a measly 10 or 20 points

However, it’s also difficult to ie by 500 or 1000 points

“We’re also in a pinch If the gap widens, we uess we both have to work hard”

Actually, it’s Horikita, Hirata, and Kushi+da that have to work hard

“At any rate, it doesn’t look like the situation will getalready, but it seems like a troublesome event will happen soon

“But if it’s actually a vacation on a tropical island, that would be super a forward to it?”

Only people who have friends and interact with others can enjoy their break

There’s nothing that feels as unco without people you’re close to

Evenabout itby any chance?”

“I don’t hate traveling I think, at least…”

While talking about this and that, I iined what it would feel like After all, I’ve never traveled with a friend

Speaking of travel, I’ve been to New York withNone of it was fun I felt weary by the bitter flashback I had

“What’s wrong?”

“I just recalled a certain trau the hot road

No, no If I spread ative aura, then Ichinose would be troubled as well

However, ht, and Ichinose continued to talk, looking like she didn’t mind

“Can I ask you soh different fro sincerely for her own satisfaction

Even when she’s talking to rade is separated into four classes, right? I wonder if that’s actually by ability”

“I know that the results of the entrance exam don’t directly correspond to the results There are people that deserve to be in the top class based on test scores, so I figured about that much”

Horikita, Koenji, and Yukirade

“Isn’t it soue reply I’ve also thought about it many times, but couldn’t come up with an answer

“But I alondered Peopleand bad at sports, or vice versa But if the students are ranked by overall ability, doesn’t that e?”

“Isn’t that how societal coe”

Ichinose crossed her arms and paused It looked like she didn’t understand

“If it was an individual match, then maybe But this is a class coood people in class A, isn’t there absolutely no chance of winning?”

I mean, that’s pretty much the current state of the class points

However, it seehts were different

“There’s definitely a difference between class A and D, but I think that’s because they’re trying to hide so?”

“Ahahaha, nothing much It just came to me for some reason If that wasn’t true, it would be accurate to call this situation harsh I think that there are people who can study and do well in sports in class D for a reason”

Is that different than the usual syste only our academic ability, there would be no way to beat the other classes, no matter how hard we tried

An i an expert in many fields

“…Shouldn’t you keep quiet about this?”

I advised Ichinose, feeling slightly worried

“Hht now Horikita said it early, but you’re helping out the ene with it

“I don’t think that’s true It’s important that a lot of ideas are circulated Also, since we’re in a cooperative relationshi+p, it’s co in class B… but rather, it was a characteristic of Ichinose So Anyway, she’s actually a good person—and doesn’t have two sides to her”

“My brain isn’t good enough to exchange ideas and such I can only say ‘I’ If you think it’s useful information, you can use it”

Ichinose see and stopped in her tracks

As I wondered what it was about, I turned my head and saw her serious expression

“You knoanted to ask you soine the cheerful Ichinose froo My body stiffened up

“I’ll answer to the best ofI can ansith e of a hundredlie)

“Have you ever been confessed to by a girl?”

Um… That wasn’t in the millions of books I read…

“Do I look like a person who hasn’t been confessed to before…?”

Is this when she calls in, or makes fun of h school student! It’s way too early for that Hey, hey Don’t you think so too?

I’m pretty sure that the proportion of people who have confessed to those who haven’t is very small I have no proof to back it up, however

The number of people who die in solitude, hidden away from the rest of hu”

That’s not a face that says “it’s nothing” However, it looks like she’selse

“Did so like that”

So to become a couple just like Hirata and Karuizawa

“If you have time after school, I want to talk to you about confessions I know you’re busy and all about the current issue, but if you have time…”

“It’s fine I don’t really have much to do”

“Don’t have much to do?”

“I don’t think there’s any use to find evidence or look for a witness It’d be troubleso like that”

“But you went to the scene of the incident yesterday, right?”

“That was for so else Anyway, it’s fine”

“Thanks”

But I wonder what this has to do with me

Is this the pattern where she makes up a lie and says “This is ht away since it would be better to use a more reliable ike at the entrance”

“Alright”

It’s the natural that I felt so to happen
