Chapter 15 - Coiling Snake Gang

Coiling Snake Gang is a notorious gang known around the city. They were a dangerous gang where one would certainly avoid. They always fought and do heinous acts.

Just hearing the name 'Coiling Snake' would make one tremble in fear. That was how notorious they were.

They are a gang who were able to escape the police as they were slippery and hard to catch. They were hard to track and most members were unknown.

But most difficult of them all, was the leader. Nobody, not even the top executives of the gang were able to see who was the leader. The head was always hiding behind the members, like a snake hiding in a tall grass.

It would be difficult work for Celine but it was manageable, who was able to solve more difficult problems than this.

"By the way, you didn't answer my question. Why do want to know about them? Don't tell me you're just curious?" Celine asked seriously, while staring at Ayami like she wanted to know what was going on inside her.

"How did you know?" Ayami smiled, playing dumb. Wasn't it also the truth? She was curious about the Coiling Snake Gang and wanted to know more.

Celine frowned, of course she would not believe that reasoning. Ayami wouldn't do this things without a reason.

"Fine then. Let's leave it at that."

After that, they went to their respective classes as lunch had already ended.

Ayami waited until the classes ended and wandered through the academy aimlessly. When she suddenly saw a black thing, no, it was a huge cat.

"Ah, Midnight!" Ayami called out to it and decided to approach it. What was Midnight doing here?

Ayami wondered as she approached Midnight. Even though she was scared of it earlier, that fear was now replaced with adoration after spending time with it. She even confirmed that the black leopard was harmless.

Now looking at it again, the black leopard was no longer scary and looked cute.

Midnight looked majestic as he lay down the grasses just beside a signboard, with trees just behind them. Wait a minute!

Ayami looked at the signboard and read it.

<Warning! Restricted Area Ahead. Those who do not have special access will face the consequences for breaking the rules.>

Ayami didn't notice that she had approached the forest again.

"I'm here again…"

It should be okay if she doesn't enter, right?

Ayami wanted to play with the black leopard because she was bored and have nothing to do back in the dorm.

"Midnight~ Come here~" Ayami treated it like a cat. Wasn't it just a big cat anyway?

Midnight ignored her and turned his face to the side. Ayami pouted her lips and stood up.

'Nevermind.' She lost the mood to play with the black leopard.

"I'll be going now."

Just as Ayami was about to stand up, she heard a gentle voice speak in front of her. "Oh. We meet again."

Kayden stood in front of her with a warm smile on his face. Ayami hurriedly stood up and greeted him in a flustered manner.

"H-Hello, Senior."

"…You can drop the honorifics and speak casually to me." Kayden said nonchalantly. Of course, Ayami would happily oblige, she casually spoke to Kayden. "Okay, Kayden. You can also speak casually to me."

Kayden was taken aback by her words. After all, he didn't think she would accept it so fast as they were still strangers to each other. But since Ayami already said so, Kayden spoke to her casually. "…Alright. By the way Ayami, what are you doing here? Are you lost again?"

Ayami shook her head. "No, I was just wandering aimlessly."

"I see. Enjoy your walk then and don't get lost." Kayden said as he patted Midnight's head. Ayami stared at his hand intensely. I'm so jealous!

"Then, I'll be going." Ayami said. Kayden nodded his head and waved his hand. Ayami awkwardly waved back her hand.

A week later, Celine, who worked her ass off finally got the name of the students who was involved to the Coiling Snake Gang.

Three students whose name was unfamiliar was in the file sent by Celine. Each person had information about them, their age, birthdate, bloodtype, their personal information, even their most deepest secrets were there, with a picture attached to it.

Celine really dug deep!

The first student that was on the top of the list was Liana Faker. She was secretly bullying the weak students as, of course, bullying was not allowed and she would get expelled immediately. In the picture, she wore a thick makeup that she almost looked like a clown.

Next was a male student named, Noxus Mole. A bastard who extorts money from the weak students. He was accused of assaulting some of the female students but was never found guilty. He was suspected to be using drugs, but found no evidence. In the picture, he looked like a drug addict that and was in a gang. He didn't like around his age, it was more like he aged ten years.

Lastly, Hailey Pierrot. Hailey Pierrot was considered a model student and was famous around the academy. She was seen hanging out secretly with Liana Faker and Noxus Mole weekly, every friday night. Unfortunately, there was no black stain on her. In the picture, she looked graceful and elegant like she hailed from an affluent family.

Among the three, Ayami suspected that Hailey was the team leader. Hailey was too suspicious. The only way to find was a stake out, which she would do starting tomorrow.

There was one thing in common about them, though. That is, their family have high expectations to them, if they fail, then their support would turn into dust. Their family didn't know about their misdeeds as they were purposely keeping it from them.

'All of them are graduating students, if somebody exposes them, I wonder what would happen?' Ayami laughed wickedly in her own room. Just thinking about it made her excited!

What an amazing blackmail material!

Good Job, Celine!
