CHAPTER 5: INTRODUCTION
FALSE TEAMWORK
When I was in deep sleep, I heard the girls' voices co from outside, all in a bad mood
”Hey boys, will you gather up?”
She didn't even finish talking that everyone got up proe I went to sleep at dawn so I woke up slohile rubbing the sleep out of my drowsy eyes
”What the hell… I' tired”
An irritated Sudou ca at the others around him
”What's wrong?”
”Uhm Hiratkun… Sorry but can you wake up all the boys here? It's serious”
shi+nohara notified Hirata looking apologetic Whether she was confused or angry, shi+nohara's appearance was not the proble at our side
”Understood I think they'll soon coive them a shout”
Then, in a couple oftheir sleepy eyes When they began looking at the girls gathered outside the tent, the half-asleep boys sensed an alar situation
The girls' eyes, that stared at us boys, were all unusually scared
”What's wrong, so early in the ?”
”Sorry Hiratkun It's soathered here because there's so I have to check at any cost”
shi+nohara gave everyone, except Hirata, a look of contempt and then she spoke
”ThisDo you knohat that means?
”EH… UNDERWEAR?”
Even Hirata, as always calm, appeared shaken and upset at the completely unexpected situation Which reirls
”Now Karuizawsan is inside the tent, crying Kushi+dsan and others are co her but…”
Saying so, shi+nohara looked to the girls' tent
”Eh? Ehhhhh? What, Why are you glaring at us knowing that the underwear is ?”
”We decided that so and stole it The luggage had been put outside so if so all of it, they could have done so after all”
The boys, still dominated by drowsiness, looked at each other simultaneously
”NONONONONONONONO!? EH? EHH?”
Ike looked alternatively to the boys and girls in total panic A boy, looking at the situation, coughed out in a calm voice
”Come to think of it Ike, you yesterday… You went to the toilet quite late You took a long time”
”No no no! I was struggling because it was dark!”
”It's true You're the one who stole Karuizawa's underwear”
”Well, you're wrong! Don't do that!”
The boys begun putting the blame on each other for the nasty and offensive crime
”Anyway I guess this is really a big proble in the same place as those underwear thieves”
shi+nohara, who looked like she was about to lose her temper, offered a monish with her arms crossed
”So Hiratkun You can ht?”
”That's…… But there's no evidence that the boys have stolen it There's a possibility that Karuizawsan has lost it”
”That's right! We have nothing to do with this!!”
All the boys shouted at the top of their lungs fro their innocence
”I don't want to think that there's a culprit here”
It seemed vile to doubt our classmates and not to shi+eld them
”I know that Hiratkun is not the culprit… But, for the tie”
Apparently it seee their idea, and they perpetuated the idea of the culprit who is on the boys' side Well, it's i in this kind of context
”EH? Stop saying bullshi+t You don't need to do such a thing Hirata, just say no”
”For noill gather and talk with all the boys We ht”
”………If you say so, Hiratkun…………… Ok I understand I will talk to Karuizawsan as well But if the culprit can't be found, we have an idea as well on who is on it”
After saying this, the gathering dissolved Hirata quickly gathered all the boys again to have a talk in front of the tent
”Let's just ignore what the girls said You'll feel bad if you're suspected I will fight!”
On the first day, I thought Ike obtained a certain degree of trust froirls but it seems like it was pretension after all It's obvious that even the suspected boys will get uncomfortable if they are falsely suspected
”Exactly There's no way that one of us has stolen Karuizawa's underwear”
Ya the rest of the boys, looked at each of them It's not that Karuizawa isn't pretty But since Karuizawa is Hirata's girlfriend, it's uys to chase after Kushi+da or Sakura
”I'uys But I think this problem won't ever be resolved like this…”
The girls, ere talking and conspiring together over there, were now nearly ju towards us
”To prove your innocence, it's better for you to respond to your luggage inspection in a confident and dignified way”
Having said that, Hirata hi
”As irls' request, that's why you guys have to keep up by doing the saood?”
”B… But……”
”Of course, I can open it first”
To ht we had no choice but to start acting by ourselves, there would be no one who thought that Hirata was actually the culprit, including boys, not just girls To say that he stole his girlfriend's underwear, in the first place, is a bit of a contradiction However, if the first one disclosed his luggage this e couldn't help but follow the example It was inevitable that the students who didn’t show the content of their bags were going to be suspected Hirata's bag, naturally, was bound to not to have any underwear
”There's no other choice…”
Influenced by Hirata's actions, all the boys began pulling out their bags from the tent, one after another
Ike and Ya this the whole tito the tent I was following the other two
”shi+t, I'm mad Men are suspected unconditionally and irrevocably It's too unreasonable”
”Well, let's prove our innocence in a confident way and triumph over them”
Ike started to stand up while grabbing the bag but suddenly he stopped and stood still
”What's wrong?”
”Ahh, Nothing…”
Abruptly, he turned his back to Hirata and the others and sat down Checking the inside of his bag, he closed the zipper like he was confused
”Kanji?”
Ike was rigid with a pale face He was un of paralysis
”Coo?”
Ya Ike, whose appearance becaly:
”Maybe you stole it”
”What?!! You’re… You’re wrong!”
Ike hastily denied it, shaking his head while holding the bag in his hands What a blatant reaction We haven’t become that dull as if we don’t have any emotions, after all
”You… Don’t tell me…”
”What? Are you suspecting me?!”
”No, that’s not it… Just… The bag… Shohat’s inside”
”Ah! Wait…”
Ya to examine it There it is…
White underwear that men absolutely do not wear It was curled up and well hidden
”Eh! That’s not !”
”Hey now, give me a better excuse”
As Ike was in panic, Yamauchi’s look towards him was one of pity
”I a you, I do not know! Seriously! Why there is… u… underwear in ?!”
”This is shameful Anyway, let’s explain the rest to Hirata and the others”
”Huh? If I do that, then it would mean that I confess that I am the culprit!”
”And the culprit was no one… Right?”
Yamauchi asked for his consent, but what does this mean? It is obvious that Karuizawa’s underwear ca So, is Ike the culprit? The case is not that simple as to come to such an easy conclusion
When and how did he steal the underwear? Also, I don’t think that the thief would hide casually the underwear in his own bag He should know that his act would soon cause an uproar and that ould start searching for the culprit as soon as possible He sure failed to keep his co to search his belongings I thought he would panic In Ike’s case that didn’t happen until after we found ere searching for
The conclusion drawn from this, is that the culprit is so
Well, there was a small possibility that the thief was really Ike if only he wasn’t so simple-minded and foolish However… That’s not true, is it?
”Hey, Ayanokouji, you do believe ht? Because I haven’t stolen it”
”Judging from the situation, there is no concrete evidence that Ike is the culprit”
”Ayanokouji!”
”However, I cannot deny that there is a high possibility that he is the culprit If he is the culprit though, then he is too stupid”
