Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Streamlined Duplex Apartment, 12th floor.

When Furuhashi Harunaka came out from the bathroom, she saw Natsui sitting dazedly on the sofa.

“Haven’t you recovered yet, Natsui?” Drying her hair with a towel, Harunaka thought of what had happened earlier. As the eldest sister, she could not help but laugh out loud.

“No,” answered Furuhashi Fuyuno plainly for her sister as she ate ice cream with her eyes partially closed. However, the laughter in her eyes was palpable.

“Fuyuno, you already knew that he was Kimura Kazuki, how could you not tell me!”

Natsui who overheard the conversation between the two could not help but throw a fit as she looked at Fuyuno ruefully. She covered her face with her hands, feeling her cheeks that were still hot from embarrassment.

She wanted to die when she thought of herself claiming that Kazuki was her boyfriend in his immediate presence. How could she face him the next time they met? Each time she thought of the meaningful look Kazuki gave her before he left, she felt like burrowing herself into a hole.

“How would I know that you didn’t even know his name after spending nearly half an hour together behind the hill?”

Fuyuno put up an annoyed face, unhappy with Natsui’s accusation. Moreover, she had only gotten to know his name after some time because of Kazuki’s help in the afternoon.

Thinking of this, she asked in curiosity, “Speaking of which, why did you say that?”

Natsui was speechless.

“I’m curious about that senior too. Natsui, you seem to know him very well, tell us more about him.” Harunaka took ice cream from the refrigerator and came over to hear some gossip.

Natsui didn’t say anything, but she extended her arm towards Harunaka.

Handing the ice cream in hand to Natsui, Harunaka took out another pint of Häagen-Dazs.

Natsui ate her ice cream, “In tenth grade, I remember telling Fuyuno that we were enrolling into Sakura Kyu, but Fuyuno hated the idea at the time.”

“That’s right...” Fuyuno nodded her head, “That’s because, in tenth grade, I thought that Sakura Kyu was still the same ‘concentration camp’ that produced horrible students at the time. Typical middle school students wouldn’t enroll at Sakura Kyu. I just never expected that during Tenth Grade...”

As she said this, Fuyuno abruptly stopped as she seemed to come to her senses with a shocked expression on her face.

“Seems like Fuyuno has thought of it.” Natsui saw Harunaka’s curious face and didn’t keep them guessing, “In tenth grade, Kazuki entered Sakura Kyu, back then, it was a ‘concentration camp’. He then spent half a year using all sorts of methods to make all the delinquents drop out of school and became the biggest delinquent in Jinwen district.”

“Since then, all students from the Jinwen district have heard of the name of Kazuki. After that, Kazuki spent another half a year to transform the atmosphere of Sakura Kyu Academy. Now, Sakura Kyu Academy is recognized as the best high school in Jinwen district.”

In recent years, the atmosphere of Sakura Kyu Academy had changed a lot. The Academy went from a ‘concentration camp’ to a school with one of the best atmospheres and results. There were no delinquents in the school; all the delinquents in Sakura Kyu Academy had been entirely suppressed by Kazuki and did not dare to act boldly.

Harunaka initially thought that the school had undergone proper rectification, but as she listened to Natsui, she realized that it was actually because of a student.

“Kazuki does not look like a delinquent, though.” Harunaka was shocked as well. She recalled Kazuki’s appearance. He was an average-looking senior, but he looked clean and neat. She would never have thought that he was a delinquent.

Moreover, did he not say that he was the Head of the Disciplinary Committee of Sakura Kyu?

It was hard for her to think of the Head of the Disciplinary Committee as a delinquent.

He does not look like it?

Natsui could not come up with a reply. Seeing the faces of Harunaka and Fuyuno riddled with doubt, it was apparent that words would not do since they did not believe her completely.

As such, Natsui picked up the phone that had been charging since she returned home and clicked on a video. She paused, “This is a video of Kazuki beating someone up in the female toilet three months after he enrolled at Sakura Kyu... the one being beaten up was a girl.”

Despite having said so, Natsui’s tone of voice did not reveal any disgust towards Kazuki for beating up a girl.

Beating up someone in the female toilet? Beating up a girl?

Before Harunaka and Fuyuno even had time to speculate, the video had begun to play.

Smack!

The sound of a sharp slap whistled in the air. Instantly, the two of them moved their heads towards Natsui’s phone.

What came into sight was a blurry view. The cameraman hid in a toilet cubicle, using his phone to record the outside.

Although the footage was blurry, they could still clearly see a boy clad in the Sakura Kyu freshman school uniform.

That boy had his back facing the cameraman and was meeting a delinquent girl with blonde hair and bright lipstick as he slapped her.

The slap was very forceful as it was visible that the right cheek of the delinquent girl in the video had turned red and swollen quickly.

The delinquent girl, whose face was swollen, was being held up by two boys and could not move at all.

Soon, the three of them saw Kazuki kick the stomach of the girl. The tremendous force used made the two boys who were holding up the girl take a step back.

Cough! Cough! Cough!

The girl’s face contorted with pain as she begged and pleaded. However, being that her face was swollen, her words could not be heard clearly.

Smack!

Another slap landed on the face of the girl and was still on the right cheek.

Harunaka and the two girls could see as this forceful slap break the teeth of the girl who was being held up.

With the right side of her face already numb, the girl coughed again. This time, she spat out blood, foaming from her mouth.

Seeing her own blood running from her mouth, the delinquent girl screamed, her voice full of fear and pain.

Her voice was muffled, and Harunaka could not hear it. However, the pitiful sight still struck terror in their hearts as a chill swept over them.

Then, they heard Kazuki speak for the first time since the video started to play.

“Put her down.”

His voice was dull and indifferent.

The two boys holding up the girl were very obedient. Even from the video, the fear in the eyes of the two boys was visible.

Without the support of the two boys, the girl collapsed onto the dirty toilet floor. The girl was relieved as she thought that Kazuki would let her go.

But before she could open her mouth, Kazuki kicked the girl. The force of his kick was so strong that it caused the girl to roll a few times before stopping after she hit the wall.

This time, the girl was no longer spitting out bloody foam, but rather, actual fresh blood and then blacked out.

“Head of Department, we can’t hit her anymore. She’ll die.”

Just as Kazuki took a step forward, he was stopped by the two boys. Although their voices were trembling slightly, they still stopped Kazuki.

“Head of Department, we’ve brought Kurokawa and his people over.”

The closed-door of the female toilet was pushed open by someone.
