Yuuichi Katagiri, a seemingly ordinary and friendly student, enrolls in Koudo Ikusei High School, a prestigious government-managed institute. However, beneath his amiable facade lies a dangerous manipulative side.
Yuuichi: The game is very simple—nagging and crouching at the height of the man—and quiet if you win it I promise I won't send the tapes of everything to the police.
Man: Q-what do you want–with your hand on your nose completely broken.
Yuuichi: I WILL BREAK YOUR FINGERS ONE BY ONE, FOR EVERY SHOUT I WILL PUT A DIGIT OF THE POLICE PHONE NUMBER ON MY CELL PHONE. [110]
Man: e-he-is a totally terrified monster.
Yuuichi: You always have the option of just calling the police, but think about it a shop clerk sexually assaulting a minor, I don't know if you noticed but it means your life and that of your family is over
Man: that's a lie!! Shizuku-Chan is my girlfriend. He didn't sexually assault her. She asked me to.
Sakura:Noooo! I would never go near someone as disgusting as you!! I hate you
Man:T-Your disgusting witch tricked me!—you start to hear a very loud laugh.
Yuuichi: hajajajajajajaj because we don't make this game more fun–take a break– ne Sōta Tanaka son of Himari Tanaka your parents live on the outskirts of Osaka, every Sunday you send them an envelope with half your income isn't true hehehehehehehehehe.
Tanaka: C-Co-What the hell?
Shiba: If you lose not only will I call the police but...
I'LL SEND YOUR PARENTS' ADDRESS TO THE PRESS.

On–
Tanaka: Let’s do it–crying– let’s do it
Shiba: it's 5 fingers per hand and 3 lives we start with the first one – grabbing a finger and turning it all over – one – the man writhing and crying violently as he bites his lips.
Shiba: two - the man grunts while weeping inconsolably.
Shiba: Three - the man continues to cry but a slight sound escapes from his mouth-
Shiba: Hehehehehehehe strike one, fourth finger - held as blood flows from his lips-
Shiba: Fifth finger- he shouted aloud and looked up -
Man: win, win, win !!- breathing violently.
Shiba: congratulations – he says while clapping – now round 2 begins – he grabs a finger of his other hand and breaks it.
Man: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh fucking son of a bitch you said it was five fingers ahhhh ahhhh- crying loudly.
Shiba: I said it was five fingers per hand, but still, congratulations you endured quite enough.
Shiba: The police are on their way and I have already sent everything to the press, see you, goodbye!!- I walked with a terrified Sakura clutching her shoulder.
Sakura: Of... somehow....... I was... I was happy to see him suffer - with an emptier look but embracing Yuuichi-
( Yuuichi made things go much further than in the novel, with the man having Sakura's address and phone number)
Yuuichi: that's what it means to be human... when a person hurts you, you want to hurt him.
Sakura: Katagiri-kun....
Yuuichi: Yes?
Sakura: Do you consider me your friend?

I waited outside the student council room until the meeting concluded. Students from Class C and Sakagami-sensei left first, followed by Sudou a little later, wearing a bright and cheerful expression.
Yuuichi: "Seems like it went well," I said.
Sudou: "I don't understand what happened, but it had something to do with Horikita, right?"
Yuuichi: "You knew it. I knew she'd do it for me. Heh heh heh heh," he looked incredibly happy. "Well, I have to go to my club. We should have a party tonight in Ayanokouji's room."
Yuuichi: "Yes, hahaha, that would be great!"
Next to leave were the student council president and secretary Tachibana.
President: "Excellent work, Katagiri-kun, right?" I thought we'd exchange just a brief greeting, but the president stopped in his tracks to address me. "I've approved Class C's request to withdraw their complaint."
Yuuichi: "Is that so?" I said. "Well, I guess miracles do happen." Horikita's brother stood still, looking into my eyes. I had no idea what he was thinking.
Secretary Tachibana: "If that's your response, then I'm impressed. Even though it's a simple story," the composed Secretary Tachibana applauded. "Katagiri-kun, would you like to be the student council secretary?"
I was surprised, but Secretary Tachibana seemed even more shocked than me.
Akane: "President... Are you serious?"
Manabu: "Do you disapprove?"
Akane: "N-no. If you say so, I have no objections. But..."
Yuuichi: "Not for now, but maybe in the future, I'll consider it."
Secretary Tachibana was even more taken aback by my response.
Akane: "Huh? You're declining an invitation from the student council president?"
Yuuichi: "Hahaha, I'm not declining it, just keeping it for the future."
Manabu: "Come on, Tachibana."
Akane: "Y-yes."
Their interest in me seemed to wane after my refusal, and they left. Shortly after, Horikita and Chabashira-sensei appeared.
Sae: "Well done, Katagiri-kun," she said and continued walking.
Yuuichi: "Hello," I raised my hand to greet Horikita, but she ignored me and kept walking. I think she finally realized that Ayanokouji was manipulating her.
