Now I need to lay the foundations.
It was already 5:30 pm and I was preparing snacks and drinks for my guests. According to me baking is really fun.
It an art where imagination reigns supreme. It can produce remarkable results, and most of the time they're for the best. Acquiring this skill works like a boon for those who must satiate their sweet tooth at all costs.
It can magically transfer you from the real world to Heaven, and put you in a good mood even on the worst of the days. And the best part it is quick too.
*Sound of someone knocking on the door*
Before I delve deep into the essence of baking, someone knocked on the door. It seems people are earlier. I opened the door and met with the face of Karuizawa and Hirata. Karuizawa was clinging in his arms.
"Welcome, get in and sit on the chairs" I welcomed them.
I bought furnitures specifically for this meeting.
"Ojama shimasu" they both Said it at the same time and entered my room.
"Wow your room is very empty Ayanokouji-chan, except for the furnitures". Karuizawa initiated the conversation.
"Thank you for the compliment Karuizawa-chan". I replied in a monotonous voice.
"Wh- It wasn't an compliment!" She exclaimed.
"Leaving that aside. What's with you and Hirata-kun walking hand in hand. Are you perhaps in love Ka-rui-za-wa-chan". I teased her and it worked.
She was blushing like those characters in anime. She moves fast. She also chose the right person as cover for various magnitude of reason.
Hirata is naive, and good natured at least as far as first impressions go. He also had an expression of guilt when talking about bullying. If Karuizawa pleaded to him to be in a relationship, then he will for sure accept it to protect her.
"Wh-what? No, we are not dating... yet" she whispered the last part.
Seeing my amused expression she continued, "Ah mou, don't tease me like that".
"Do you guys want anything to drink" I asked them.
"Green tea for me" Hirata replied.
"For me, Hot chocolate" Karuizawa told.
"Okay, I will prepare them in few minutes. But that time please eat these cookies" I gave them a plate of chocolate cookies that I made.
"Wow these are fantastic, did you bake them yourself. You are even good at cooking huh. I would even believe if you told me you could create a nuke". Karuizawa complimented me after eating one.
"Yes I baked them" I answered from the kitchen.
Hmm creating nuke huh. I never thought about it. Maybe I should make one and blast that man.
"Yea it's very delicious Ayanokouji-san" Hirata replied like a normal person he is.
Suddenly we heard a knock on the door.
"Please you do your work Ayanokouji-san, we will open the door" Hirata politely offered.
I mean I am making drinks for you guys. So it's not my work right?. Don't mind me, I am just new to this hosting things.
"Ah thank you Hirata-kun" I thanked him.
"Welcome, come in Matsushita-san, Sato-san and Kushida-san". Hirata welcomed them in my stead.
"Ojama shimasu", three of them entered and placed their shoes in the rack neatly.
"It's empty" Matsushita comments.
"That's very rude Matsushita-chan, and order your drinks. Also eat the cookies on the table." I voiced my complaint from the kitchen.
"Black coffee for me" Matsushita requested.
"Oh oh let's see how good is Ayanokouji-chan in cooking. I bet she is incredible. I need a chocolate parfait " Sato's request was unreasonable.
But I had the ingredients, so it wasn't impossible.
"I want green tea" Kushida asked.
"Sato-chan, that was an unreasonable request. Anyways I will help Ayanokouji-chan to make them". Matsushita scolded Sato and entered the kitchen.
"Let me help you Ayanokouji-chan". Matsushita was excited to cook with me?.
"Oh thank you Matsushita". I thanked her.
"Don't you think we look like a couple who is hosting their guest". Matsushita stopped taking the ingredients and stared at me.
She was blushing, and don't know what to say.
"Wha-what are you even talking about, no we don't look like that". Seeing Matsushita stutter, I gave a knowing smirk.
"YOU- you were teasing me!!!" The ever calm and collected Matsushita screamed.
But people were talking to each other and didn't notice our exchange. Anyways Matsushita was slightly angry with me, for teasing her.
I mean, her reactions are cute. So I couldn't help myself. Finally we made everything and exited the kitchen.
"The cookies are God tier Ayanokouji-chan" Sato exclaimed.
"So what did you want to talk about Ayanokouji-chan?" Kushida asked me.
Her hate towards me increased more and more , as I revealed more and more of my talents. Good, I need her full hatred towards me.
But there was this peculiar thing I noticed about Kushida. I thought her hatred was only towards me, but upon observing, it was also directed towards someone near me. It was Horikita.
I theorized the possible reasons.
One ; Horikita's blunt nature. Kushida is a someone who hides behind a mask all the time. It will for sure take a toll on her. So people who are honest and open are the type she will hate the most.
Horikita is naturally honest and tells her opinion open in the face of people bluntly.
But this can't be the case. Because there are other such people, like Koenji, and even Karuizawa. Even though Karuizawa is faking her personality, Kushida doesn't know this, atleast as far as I know.
But she didn't hate them as much as she did with Horikita. It was pure blood lust. If given a chance where she wouldn't face consequences, she will kill Horikita for sure.
So I concluded they know each other, or at least one of them knows something. Something that happened outside the school. 2 days is not enough to hate someone to such an extent, excluding me.
She hated my talents. I took her spotlight. It was just like the same case with Shinohara, but slightly different. Shinohara was jealous of my very abilities, but Kushida is jealous of the attention I was receiving.
She seems like she wants to be adored. But for that you need to good at everything, which won't be the case all the time. There will be someone better than you at something.
Another solution is an angel mask. Afterall people love angels. She is simply an attention who*e with extraordinary acting abilities.
"Before that, there's another person who should be present here".
"Who is tha-" before Kushida could finish her sentence a knock on the door is heard.
I opened the door, and Horikita entered, she sat on the bed and gave me a look 'prove me that meeting these people is productive'.
"O-oh welcome Horikita" Kushida welcomed her.
But her face contorted in anger. I wanted to confirm this. Rather I wanted to assess that level of hatred. Seems I was correct. It was absurd amount of hate.
"Oh it's this stuck up girl huh. Is it related to what you told about putting her in her place ?" Karuizawa exclaimed.
Hearing that phrase Horikita flinched. She tried to glare at me. But it was cute though.
"No it's not about it Karuizawa-chan, putting that aside I wanted to ask a question? Do you guys see me as your leader?" I asked them seriously.
"Of course " " yeah no doubt with it" " We won't find a better leader". People voiced their agreements.
Horikita simply nodded. But she was thinking so deep about something. She still couldn't see the point of this meeting and how people such as Karuizawa and Sato could be key figures of the class.
I don't blame her. She won't know that, in the future Karuizawa will be the leaders of the girls. Horikita is short sighted. She immediately deemed people as liability before even evaluating them.
But this is a well known fact. I won't ask her about it thought.
"You guys see, day before yesterday I got some information from some senpais". Horikita and Matsushita widened their eyes, everyone had puzzled look.
"Wait wait, you mean the first day when you unconcerned the S-system? But how? I thought the S-system's rules were prohibited to explain to Kouhais" Matsushita exclaimed. She slipped up.
"Huh, what do you mean by that Matsushita-chan?". Karuizawa asked.
Horikita eyed Matsushita suspiciously. Now Horikita will realise there are people smart, capable of thinking. Horikita should have came to the same conclusion as Matsushita, but she must have thought she was the only one, aside from me.
"Let me explain what Matsushita meant. What she means is that, if you think about it, the S-system should be hidden from us till the end of first month right?" Everyone nodded.
"Then if you try to ask any senpais , they won't give that information because the school prohibits it to do so. There must be some kind of punishment if the information about S-system got leaked by the Senpais to the Kouhais". I paused. Everyone had an face of understanding, except Sato.
"Yea Ayanokouji-chan, Yesterday I asked a Senpai about the S-system, he immediately denied it and told 'be carefull'." Kushida supported my claims.
Excellent. I got what I wanted. I needed a confirmation. A confirmation that Kushida already met some seniors. Her social skills are no joke. Not even four days into the school, she already have connections with some Senpais.
Think about it, in just three days. I knew Kushida was this capable. But I needed to know if she already made contacts with senpais. Let's plant the seed of hope and future ideas.
"It's exactly like Kushida said" I finished and sipped my tea.
"But then how did you get information from the Senpais ?" Horikita hurried and asked me.
"Before that, do you need anything to drink Horikita". I asked her.
"No, I don't need anything, I already drank some coffee before coming here. Don't divert the topic and continue". Horikita urged me.
"Horikita do you remember the incident on the first day with Sudo and the senior " I asked her.
Everyone had a puzzled look. Horikita took a moment to recollect.
"Oh you mean that red haired delinquent? Yes some Senpais mocked him for being in ... Class D and called him a ... Defect, they also mentioned we will face hell soon, but wait how did you know that? Were you present near that area at that time? ". Horikita spoke diverting her eyes.
It seems she still can't accept her defect and move on. But she for sure realised that she is not as superior as she thinks.
Nobody was shocked by the news, they already fully accepted my theories, so this is nothing new.
"What? They gave away information about the school, they could be expell-" Matsushita stopped herself and eyed me and widened her eyes.
She understood that I black mailed the senpais.
---flashback---
Seems like I hit jackpot. Those senpais who mocked Sudo casually gave away information about the S-system.
I followed them until they reached an alley. Good there seems to be no camera around here. Seems to be a blindspot. Suddenly someone put their hands on my shoulder and spoke.
"Hey beautiful Kouhai. It seems like you were following us, what did you want? To have some fun?". Random senpai no.1 spoke to me in a disgusting tone.
They surrounded me, two in front and one in the back. It's as you guys guessed. I purposely let them know that I was stalking them. The reason being this way, if they decide to confront me, then they will choose a place with no cameras.
Since I didn't fully scout the school, I didn't find any big enough blind spots to beat up three guys. But these guys are my Senpais, so they must have known such blind spots.
Even if they didn't figure me out tailing them, and didn't lead me to this alley way. I would have approached and simply seduced them and made it look like an attempted r*pe to the cameras.
"Ano Senpai-tachi, I don't think you guys have any rights to speak to me. You are here to obey my order" I spoke playfully.
"What did you say you bitc- " his face contorted in anger.
But before he could do or say anything, I played an audio.
-----------------------------------------
"Ahahah, listen here guys. This guy is from class D. It was a dead give away."
"What did you say, don't run you cowards , face me".
"It won't matter delinquent-kun, soon you will face hell".
-----------------------------------------
I ended the clip. The senpais face paled.
"Huh wh-what did that clip do? Are you in kindergarten? The school won't take such mockings seriously, we will only get light punishments" he tried to play dumb.
"Oh I know very well which situations the school takes seriously. You guys clearly gave away information about the S-system. So class A to D hierarchy ah? Thank you senpais. I will report this to the school.
Be ready for your expulsion".
The senpai was stunned to speak. But suddenly his fear vanished and he had an smirk on his face.
"Hahahaha, I honestly didn't think you could get that much information from such a small hint. Impressive, very impressive Kouhai, but you made a major mistake. We know you were tailing us, so you didn't meet anyone in that time frame, so only you know this". He mocked me.
"You were clever, but not clever enough. Did you think just because you are a girl we won't harm you?". The three senpais got closer.
"Bu-but I could have sent it to anyone of my fr-friends. There is that possibility right?" I stuttered. I was very afraid of them.
"Hahaha, don't try to bluff now. You are clearly afraid. And you said, ' I could have sent' instead of 'I sent'. It's a dead give away. Now be a good girl and hand over your cell phone. We may leave you after one round of getting a taste of you". He said .
Disgusting, just because I showed some fear, this guy thinks he can take advantage of it to have my body. How dumb can he be?.
He approached me and tried to grap my phone suddenly.
"Too slow" I muttered.
I spat his hand away and lightly punched him in his chest in a speed which he couldn't comprehend. Before he fell backwards I used his knees as a support and did a flip. Using the extra momentum I gained through his knee as a stepping stone, my foot connected to his jaw and landed I on my feet. He was got knocked out cold.
Seeing this the other two senpais jaw dropped. But realising they have number advantage, they both rushed at me simultaneously.
One of them threw a punch and the other tried to kick me. The one who was on my right, aimed his punch at my nose. The other guy aimed the kick at my solar plexus. It was good thinking. It seems they have prior fighting experiences. They were faster than the first guy too. Dodging these two attacked will be impossible for most people.
But unfortunately for them, I am not on the list of those most people.
I simply moved to the right, more precisely I side stepped so that the kick would be missed, I caught the punch with my left hand and pulled him using his own force and elbowed that senpai with my right elbow on his neck.
In a split second I backed up a bit and did a spinning hook kick which connected to the third senpais cheek.
All three were knocked out cold. I bought water from nearby vending machine and poured it on them to wake them up.
"Wha-" the senpais took a moment to realise what has happened.
"YOU- you faked being in fear when you could clearly fight. What? What do you need from us ? you monster." The senpais was eyeing me with fear.
Ah. What a nostalgic name. It's been a year since I was called a monster.
"It was your mistake for falling for that. Now give me the information about-"
I asked them information regarding the number of expulsions in the 2nd year and 3rd year. Interestingly, 2nd year had more than twice the expulsions of third years. Coincidence? No. I don't believe in such things.
I also learnt about the special exams and class points. It's not like I would be wrong in the first place. But now I know 1000 CP is the initial amount.
"We told you everything, please don't turn on us. We will be expelled. Delete the audio as you promised".
The senpais pleaded.
"Transfer me all your private points" I demanded.
"Huh but we-", I cut him off by punching him in the stomach, he coughed.
I didn't hit him enough to bleed. They are feared of me now. So they transferred their points to me.
I did as they told and deleted the audio. They were relieved that I held my end of the bargain. Anyway I left them alone and went to the dorms.
---End of flashback---
"Yes Horikita I was there. I even got an recording of them mocking Sudo. I followed them and black mailed them for information." I stopped speaking.
Hirata had a bitter face. He knows that I am not too kind hearted. At the same time he knew that the senpais made the mistake of revealing S-system. I only took advantage of the situation.
Others didn't pay much attention to the black mail part, as they consider me taking advantage of that slip up and brilliant. These are not naive. The moment they knew about the S-system, they knew this school isn't normal. They know that underhand tactics takes place in this school more often.
At least from class D, the people in this room understood the harsh reality of this school except Sato.
"But why did you needed that information? You already figured out the S-system completely right?" Matsushita asked to herself, but she spoke her thoughts.
"I just wanted to confirm another suspicions of mine". I told them.
"Which is the number of expulsions that took place in both second and third year's." I dropped the bomb.
These guys were in schock.
"But why?" Horikita regained her composure and asked me.
"Simple. I needed to make sure that I fully understand the school. I already guessed that this school won't hesitate to expel it's students if rules are broken above a certain limit." I lied. I didn't need information about that. It was for entirely different reasons.
"So what did you got from all that". Hirata asked. He accepted the fact that I black mailed that senpais.
But Hirata seems to hold an abnormal fear towards expulsion. And it's not his. if I am correct, then he doesn't want to lose any of his classmates. What exactly is his ideology?
"Expulsions are more common than we thought. In the second year alone, 17 senpais were expelled". As expected, Hirata's face paled.
Others were shocked too. But Hirata reaction were extreme. Now for the act.
"That's why I wanted to hold this meeting. I believe the school is more strict than I thought. If expulsions are common, we need to do everything to prevent it, I confirmed the existence of class points with those senpais". I spoke clearly.
Horikita was the most shocked now. My theories were on point. It was precise and accurate.
"There are two major reasons for me to do this. First, I think we may get class points deduced if one of our class mates got expelled. Second I want to graduate this highschool with all of our classmates if possible". I purposely told them in that order to appear more reliable.
It was simply reverse psychology.
By now Matsushita should have understood that expulsions are inevitable. That's the reason I used the word 'if possible'. Even if she missed that, she would have concluded it through the abnormal number of expulsions the second year faced.
But she doesn't know that the major reason behind it was Nagumo Miyabe. The vice president of the student council.
By this I achieved one thing for now. It is that if in the future, I decide to cut some people who drag us, then Matsushita will take my side. She won't know that I have the abilities to carry all 39 of them easily.
My idea for expulsion would be justified in the eyes of Matsushita, as even the school enforces it. Even I can't do the impossible. Right?.
But I don't think Hirata will support it. But it's a problem for another time, and I already formulated many solutions for an hypothetical problem.
"I understand your point of view. But how will we prevent it?". Hirata asked.
He seems to hope that I have a solution.
"I don't have immediate solutions to it. But it's only day 3 or official day 2 of the school Hirata. You don't need to worry too much. But for now, we need to maintain the honour student act in front of the school". My words calmed down Hirata.
"That's the main reason for this meeting. I want you guys to discourage use of cell phones in the class. Every girls have stopped it except Shinohara. But many boys still use them." I continued.
"Yosh. Don't worry Ayanokouji-chan, I will reprimand them so that they listen the class" Kushida exclaimed in her childish voice.
"So I hope you guys will help me lead the class in the future. I won't be able to do it alone." I told them in a sincere tone.
"Now that the series things are ove-" before Karuizawa could suggest something Matsushita asked the important point.
"Ayanokouji-chan, you told that you black mailed that senpais right? What if they try to take revenge on you? Are you sure they won't?". Matsushita asked me in a worried tone. Awww how cute.
Matsushita was sitting in my right side. I patted her head and spoke,
"It's ok Matsushita-chan, I will face them when the time comes, also 2nd years must have already got their hands full on these special exam stuffs right ? It's not like I beat them up or extort the PP right? But now that you mention it... I am a bit worried ". Matsushita blushed that I patted her head.
It seems nobody noticed that she is blushing. Anyways people become attentive in the end, and Matsushita's worry rose.
"Worried about what ? Tell us". Hirata urged me.
"They mentioned something like, 'just so you wait we will tell Nagumo-san about this, he will expel you for sure'". When everyone showed an expression of worry.
Kushida was thinking deeply. It wouldn't need a genius to figure out that these three senpais were the goons of some one named Nagumo. If she ever wanted to get rid of me. She couldn't be able to do it alone. She knows this very well.
Kushida is someone who is very perceptive towards peoples emotions and expressions. It could be something from experience.
Think about it. If you have many problems in your life, and you want to vent it to, or talk to it about some one, who would you choose? Your parents might be busy, or after certain age, children wouldn't be so open to their parents .
You know your friends very well than themselves. People judges others easily. What if I told you there was someone who wouldn't judge you whatever you say or vent. They will give their shoulder for you to lean on. However darker your thoughts are, they will still smile at you. That person will be an angel.
Kushida wants to be that angel. But I am not able to narrow down the exact reason. According to me, there's only two reason. Either she is so addicted to the feeling of others praising her and trusting her. Like she wants to be a queen.
If this is the case, then many possibilities as to why she is addicted to it arises. I won't get too deep into this.
The next possibility is that, she is a secret mastermind who gets close to people and gets their secret to blackmail them and make them her pawn. Just kidding, although the secrets part might be true, she is not doing it to obtain pawns. She is not a mastermind in the first place.
As I said earlier, Kushida needs allied to expel me. I am not assuming she already wants to seriously expel me. But when such a time comes, this seed known as Nagumo will grow in her mind.
She will for sure consider collaborating with him to expel me if she ever wants to. And that's exactly what I want.
Now why do I want that? It's simple. There are different ways to acquire different people. The most effective way to make Kushida very loyal to me is the powerlessness.
Kushida can never be satisfied. She can only be satisfied by making her a queen, even then she won't be completely satisfied.
So even if I blackmail her, she will inevitably go behind my back to finish me off. But being powerless even after trying every possible way to fight me, she will submit.
It's like in the horror movies. Even if the ghosts have supernatural powers, they won't finish their prey instantly. They instil fear, make them feel hopelessness and powerlessness.
But the major difference is, here the main lead character won't have an happy ending.
Kushida will also use Shinohara to her advantage. She would have probably sensed the hostility Shinohara radiates towards me. That's what make Kushida's perceptiveness terrifying. She can read emotions very well.
The three viruses to my school life, Namely Nagumo, Kushida and Shinohara will work together albeit not literally. If Kushida ever goes to Nagumo, he will surely try to use her as a way to influence the first years.
It was another intel that I got from those three senpais. They didn't directly tell me that Nagumo controlled all the 2nd years. It was rather a slip up.
----flashback----
April 2 : Morning 6:45
I used the second cell phone that I bought, using the money I earned.
[Cute Kouhai] : Hey senpai it's me, the girl who you tried to assault yesterday.
[Random senpai no1] : What else do you want, you already got our points.
[Cute Kouhai] : vedio.file
It's the video of them trying to assault me. I edited few parts.
[Random senpai no1] : Tch what else do you want?.
[Cute Kouhai] : Read these instructions carefully and do exactly as I say.
[Random senpai no1] : Tell them monster.
[Cute Kouhai] : I will send you some PP. Use it as a bargaining chip to convince some class C and class D 2nd years to occupy particular tables in the cafeteria. Then give them the task of eavesdropping me. You can use your fetish or libido as your excuse, I don't care. If they ask how you know I will choose that table, tell them you are a stalker for all I care. Also remember, to send them points after the deal is done, not before.
[Random senpai no1] : What an unreasonable request. Why do you want me to even do that?
[Cute Kouhai] : Do as I say, or the video is going to the school administration.
[Random senpai no1] : Tch got it you freak. I will do as you say. But don't get too cocky, Nagumo will see that you will get expelled.
[Cute Kouhai] : who is this Nagumo anyways?
[Random senpai no1] : Knowing hin won't change your fate. He is the vice president of student council, class 2-A
This guy is from class 2-B. So he got control of class 2-B, but how? Interesting, so the abnormal number of expulsions links to this guy. If that is the case, then I can see how he controls two classes. No I should assume he already controls the whole 2nd year.
I should investigate this guy named Nagumo. If he did control a whole year, then he is sure a greedy person. He may come for 1st years too. Interesting, this makes pathway to many different plans that I could adopt to.
[Cute Kouhai] : Hey, I want you to do another task
[Random senpai no1] : You freak, what else, just say it. what is this this time?
[Cute Kouhai] : I want you to find a strawberry long haired girl from class 1-B. She will be very friendly, so just approach her on the excuse that you are just visiting your juniors. Manipulate the conversation into making her asking about the S-system. No even if you don't do it, she will probably ask it.
[Cute Kouhai] : After that I want you to message her saying that you will give the details about S-system in detail near -insert location- at around 4:30 pm. But you don't need to go. Also use a different cell phone to contact her. That's all.
[Random senpai no1] : That's it right? No other wierd request right?.
[Cute Kouhai] : Yes that's it.
[Random senpai no1] : Sigh a memorandum that you won't have any copy of that audio or video and also delete it.
[Cute Kouhai] : Hai hai, I already prepared it. Now shoo shoo, go do your work.
[Random senpai no1] : YOU- well whatever, don't contact me again.
---flash back end---
If I made Kushida a pawn to me, when she was already working for Nagumo, she would already have the information regarding the workings of Nagumo to an extent. Or even better I could make her a double agent.
You may wonder why I need to make an enemy out of the student Vice President. It's not like I would know that the second years were already in control by a simple person. The moment I made enemy out of those three senpais. It was only a matter of time I will face Nagumo.
So I started laying groundwork the moment I heard the name Nagumo. Peace is also an option. But right now, I didn't even know how he looked. So taking precautions are better.
"-rth to Ayanokouji-chan, Earth to Ayanokouji-chan" Sato was shaking me.
Matsushita had a worried look on her face. Kushida seems to have finished thinking her next course of actions. Whether she lays low now and try to strike me later, or she hastes her process,
Everything is within the realm of my calculations.
"Ah, gomen gomen. How long was I thinking ?" I guess I only zoned out for a few seconds.
"It was only a few seconds Ayanokouji-chan, no need to fret it. But you looked like you were thinking too deeply about something. Care to explain what it was?" Sato asked me curiously.
"Ah I was just wondering when I should go shoping. I don't have any casual clothes you see". I didn't lie.
I really need to buy casual clothes. Even though I had one year of freedom. I suck at fashion. It's just that female fashion were varying very much. Fashion was more deep and vast than I thought.
"What you were thinking about such a thing, when someone could potentially Target yo-" I cut Matsushita off.
"Matsushita-chan. It's only day 2. We don't need to worry about those things right now. We can face it when the time comes". I spoke reassuring her.
After a bit of chatting trivial stuffs. Me Matsushita, Karuizawa and Sato has planned to go shopping tomorrow. Everybody left my room.
It was already 8:00pm. I was not in mood to cook or eat dinner as the snacks were plenty enough. Now I also laid a potential carrot in front of Nagumo.
Will he take it though? I might have already caught his attention due to the things I did these 2 days. But those won't be enough in this cunning school. Academics and physical abilities will only get you so far.
Now since these senpais will report about me to him. He will also see the chats and orders I sent them. He would probably guess why I called Ichinose to that areas. It's fairly easy to connect the dots. There's only two reasons, either making connections or assessing future enemies.
I don't need to use an indirect way to get contact information.
Or the other, he will conclude I was evaluating Ichinose. Which means I understood the S-system in just a day, atleast about class competitions. This will surely catch his attention, that is assuming if he is as formidable as those senpais seem to make him.
This doesn't mean he will take action.
That's why I need to join the student council. I need to know him. Even without knowing him. Just by the few informations I have, I made many plans with back up plans to eliminate him if necessary.
But I won't be able to initiate it if I don't understand his workings completely. I don't think he will focus on the first years till the first special exam. It is not the correct time to make moves.
Let's see in the future, if he is a threat or not.
I can't wait for tomorrow's shopping. Thinking that, my eyes became sleepy, and I started to fall asleep.
(AN: Matsushita is not blushing because she holds romantic feelings for Kiyone. She is simply embarrassed. It's too early for her to fall in love, that is if she ever does.)
