Chapter 82: Chapter 7 Part III
"Whew! I feel so much better! Thanks so much! Thanks for giving
such a huge role! I was so happy!" Ichinose cried.
"Well, it was more like you just did as you pleased, Ichinose."
"Ha ha ha, yeah. I guess so. But the case is closed, eh?"
Yeah, it really was.
"I was wondering what you were up to when you asked
to lend you so points yesterday."
We returned to the hot and humid special building and set up a stepladder.
"I couldn't believe you wanted to install security caras."
Yes, that's right. The school hadn't actually installed those security caras. Ichinose and Kanzaki bought them, and together with the Professor, installed them during our lunch break. Ishizaki and the other two students were terrified of leaked footage from the caras, but those caras were fakes.
I was surprised at first that the school sold such equipnt. Then again, while you wouldn't think of using them for cri prevention, they could be useful in asurent and recording. In other words, study tools. Perhaps calling them network rather than security caras would make it easier to comprehend.
The heat had compromised the Class C students' ability to think. They'd been in crisis mode, without a chance to relax. In addition, they'd felt psychologically threatened during that standoff. There was no way that they would have figured out we were bluffing. Even if they'd doubted it, they had no ti to investigate.
"When the day cos, you guys will probably beco formidable rivals for Class C, Ayanokouji-kun."
"If such a day ever cos, I guess."
However, Ichinose might well be in Class A by then.
"If Horikita-san were in Class B, we might have gotten to Class A right away."
"Probably."
I removed the cara and handed it down to Ichinose, who steadied the stepladder.
"I'll definitely return the points I borrowed. Just tell
when you want them."
"Sure. As long as you pay
back by graduation, it's fine. So what are you going to do now? Wait in front of the student council room?"
"Probably..."
I suddenly rembered seeing Sakura. She'd said that she had plans today, but what in the world was she doing? Earlier, when she'd been waiting for
after class, what had she wanted to tell ? She seed like she'd resolved to do sothing, judging by her expression. Right? She'd said she had courage. But what for?
The feeling plagued , as if the back of my head were going numb while my thoughts swirled.
"Oh, yeah, that reminds . There was one thing I wanted to tell you, Ayanokouji-kun."
Before Ichinose could say anything, though, I was already running away. Whatever she wanted to tell , it was going to have to wait.
"Huh?! W-wait a minute!"
Even though she couldn't understand what was happening, for so reason Ichinose followed .
