It has been about a week since I received a proposal that I didn’t understand.

Since the day before yesterday, Otori, my former childhood friend, has stopped coming to school, so as Kagurazaka and Kamisaka, they also stopped coming to school, probably because they no longer have someone to protect them.

I don’t know if I can call it interesting, but there have been some changes in the past week.

☆ ☆ ☆ 

Five days ago, when I was about to leave the school after doing something I was asked to do, I found that a few teachers had gathered at the storeroom where Kagurazaka had stolen some equipment and were asking what was going on inside.

(That place……)

I was somewhat curious, so I went up to them.

“Sensei, is something wrong?”

“Quiet. Sigh…..I guess it can’t be helped if you’ve come this far, I was wondering what was going on. I want to ask you a few questions.”

One of the teachers there beckons me over and I put my ear to the wall like the other teachers.

From inside, I hear the voices of three people, a man and women.

And it belongs to my former childhood friends.

The sounds I hear sounded like they are in the act of committing a crime, which further lowers my opinion of my former childhood friends, which had already dropped to an all-time low.

“Sigh…..they don’t even care about the surrounding.”

“…..Nanase kun, you knew about their relationship, didn’t you? There’s no need to stay here any longer. I wonder if you would come along, Nanase kun.”

A different teacher said so, and we headed back to the school building.

I wonder if they made it to the end. I heard a voice from behind me that sounded as if it had reached its climax, and I felt a little nauseous.

The teachers took me to the student guidance office.

There were still students left in the school, so this would certainly be a good place to keep them from hearing what we were about to talk.

“Well, let’s be honest. Do you know anything about the kind of thing that happened over there earlier, Nanase kun?”

“No, that was the first time I knew about that. But they are doing a lot of other things.”

“Other things….”

The teacher was lost in thought after saying that.

If it’s about impure relationships at school, then they would probably get away with a suspension from our school.

Now that the teacher asked me this, now is the time to take the chance. If I’m going to do it, do it thoroughly.

“First of all, Sensei, here.”

“….This is?”

“You’ll understand if you listen to it.”

I handed him the recording function of my phone.

I had recorded it the other day when they made a proposal that I didn’t understand.

It plays their usual unbelievable remarks and the sound of them hitting me.

“It was still on the lighter side, but you could at least know what was going on.”

“…That means you have something else?”

“Yes. For example–“

I told the teachers some things without revealing some of them.

About the culprit who stole the missing equipment.

That she had threatened a third-year student.

The affair, without going into details.

What happened at my part-time job (he doused me with water).

The rest is what happened after I was falsely accused.

He was still asking about Kagurazaka and Kamisaka with a sour look on his face, but he asked me a quizzical question about Otori’s affair.

“Affair, huh……really?

“Yes. I can’t show you, but I have proof.”

“I see. You have to deal with this properly….”

Well, he seems a little disappointed, if not too enthusiastic.

Come to think of it, this teacher is supposed to be  the advisor of the soccer team.

After that, he asked me about the time I got hit, about my senior year, and about who knew about this, and I left the student advisor’s office.

The next day after school, my sister told me that the third year senior (former president of the cooking club) and those three guys had been called in.

Would they be suspended or expelled? Or even transfer to another school?

I’m willing to let the teachers handle some things at school.

It seems that there are quite a few students who saw them being called out, and it’s probably only a matter of time before the rumors spread further.

–Well, that’s all that happened at school.

Next, outside the school. I hear from Suzuya san, the husband of Otori’s cheating partner.
