People at the practical education center only want to drop out.

"Anyway, you two have to get along well... Don't pressure me..."

Thinking of this, Hirata squeezed his fist hard; it was clearly made of unusual bone structure and was well-suited for martial arts.

"The class reunion is out of the question, so how about Kushida organizes a girls' party instead?"

"Kushida-kun", full name: Kikyo Kushida.

She was the adorable, angelic girl who stood up to maintain discipline.

Kushida was very helpful; he didn't even need Hirata to ask him for help, as he had already made plans with almost all the girls in the class.

The reason I say "almost" is because there is another troublemaker on the girls' side, second only to Bai Lan.

Relieved by Kushida's reliability, Hirata smiled with satisfaction: "Then I'll start focusing all my efforts on resolving Shirai-san's situation!"

Since he didn't have Shirai's contact information, Hirata decided to start by contacting Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, who seemed to have a pretty good relationship with Shirai.

Kiyotaka Ayanokoji was about to go to a convenience store to buy lunch and some daily necessities.

However, after struggling to escape the crowd of girls, Hirata hurriedly ran over and called out to him.

Ayanokoji: Oh no, I couldn't dodge it.

Hirata gave him a gentle smile: "Let's go together, Ayanokouji-kun. I was just about to have a chat with you."

Ayanokouji looked at the murderous gazes cast upon her by the infatuated women behind Hirata, and her salty eyes instantly drooped: "I really don't know Shiro-kun well."

Hirata: "At least you can speak to him, which is better than anyone else."

I'd like to learn from you how to get along with Bai.

I want all the classmates to have good relationships, enjoy high school together, create unforgettable memories, and graduate together. This is very important to me, so... please!

Ayanokouji could only nod stiffly, "I...I understand."

"You two get along well, perhaps you share some common ideas..."

Ayanokouji: "......" No!

"Please, use your way of thinking to help me understand why Bai did this."

Feeling the murderous aura emanating from the female fans behind Hirata, Ayanokouji, not wanting to "waste" Hirata's time too much, said, "Give me some time to think about it."

Hirata: "Great! Think it over carefully, and I'll talk to you again later... after lunch."

"Ah! Sure, sure," Ayanokouji quickly replied.

Ayanokouji just wanted to run away as quickly as possible to avoid being mistaken by the girl for a love rival.

Hirata: "What's your room?"

Ayanokoji: "......."

.......

Bai Lan had intended to splurge at a restaurant, but suddenly remembered that he hadn't bought any daily necessities yet.

He immediately changed his mind and went to the nearest convenience store to buy daily necessities and a bento box for lunch.

Soon, Bai Lan picked up her shopping basket and began to browse through the various items.

During this time, Bai Lan discovered that there were daily necessities available for free in limited quantities, which further confirmed her suspicions.

The competition between classes in this school must be fierce, otherwise there wouldn't be situations where students don't even have enough points to buy daily necessities. There might even be free items in the cafeteria.

Just then, Bai Lan sensed someone approaching him.

He subconsciously looked up.

First, I saw a pair of long, slender, jade-like legs encased in black stockings that reached past my knees.

Then there was long, black hair that reached her waist, with a section on one side styled into a unique little braid, revealing graceful, undulating curves.

Finally, there was a face that was both alluringly foxy and strikingly beautiful.

This face looks familiar.

This was the girl Bai Lan had originally intended to make cry; judging by her looks alone, she would probably be the most beautiful girl in Class D.

14. Bai Lan: I'm going to bully the class beauty!

(P.S.: Some changes have been made to the plot of chapters 11 and 12.)

Due to deletions and revisions, the word count at the beginning is insufficient, requiring a re-formatting. Some content from Chapters 13 and 14 has been moved to the end of the previous chapter. Please note.

Bai Lan glanced around.

He thought to himself, "It's lunchtime now, and many people are choosing to eat lunch at convenience stores, including a few from Class D."

If you 'bully the class beauty' here, you'll probably get noticed by a lot of people.

Such a beautiful girl, if she gets bullied, there will probably be a lot of simps coming to cause trouble for me in order to boost her favorability.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if there were a few people here who liked to solve problems with violence?

With that in mind, he decided to restart the original plan.

What was called "bullying" was actually Bai Lan's intention to continue the "vocal technique" competition with her that had been interrupted.

Because it was a give-and-take situation, and the other party had spoken first, Bai Lan didn't see it as bullying at all, and didn't feel any psychological barriers.

However, he knew that those sycophants wouldn't think that way.

And that's exactly what he wanted.

It would be even better if the prettiest girl in class, unable to win an argument with him, reported him for harassment!

Soon, Bai Lan began.

"Oh~ it's you, class beauty." Bai Lan waved her toothbrush as if waving a cheering stick, greeting her "target".

"It's you?" The aloof beauty turned her head, tossing a few strands of her hair, then frowned and said, "Don't call me the class beauty. I hate it when people judge others based on their own personal preferences and physical appearance. I hope to be noticed for my talent rather than my looks."

Bai Lan seemed unconcerned, continuing to browse the merchandise as she said, "If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be saying so much. The more you explain, the more you care. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't even bother with it."

"I just find it annoying and don't like my ears being constantly filled with useless and irritating noise."

"If you really find it annoying, you shouldn't argue back, but instead directly deal with the person who is talking. Find a way to prevent them from bothering you anymore, instead of trying to argue with them."

Arguing reveals that you're trying to prove something, and what you're trying to prove is what you doubt. So, are you doubting whether you truly don't care about others' opinions of your appearance?

"You..." The aloof beauty paused for a moment, then said, "So what are you trying to prove or doubt by arguing with me like this?"

"It's simple, proof... I'm still as eloquent as ever! My delivery hasn't declined! My hasty escape this morning was all an accident! It's not that I couldn't out-argue those guys in Class B, I just didn't want to. Proof complete! Ah, ha, ha, ha~"

Bai Lan put her hands on her hips and let out a laugh like Kim Jong-un.

"This is the first time I've ever seen a mouth sharper than mine, sharp with a hint of sourness, spiciness, and meanness. You must have no friends, right?"

"Wow~ They even used a self-sacrificing technique to attack me? It looks like I'm seeing a sky full of boomerangs."

"..."

"My name is Horikita Suzune."

The aloof beauty suddenly and abruptly introduced herself.

Bai Lan stopped laughing: "Why are you suddenly introducing yourself?"

The girl who called herself Horikita Suzune said indignantly, "Because of what happened this morning, I thought you were a good opponent. But it turns out that the person I considered my opponent doesn't even care about my name. This makes me feel slighted."

Bai Lan: "Huh? You didn't ask my name either?"

Horikita: "Because I know your name is Shirai, there's no need to ask."

"Then I might know your name too?"

"It's even more hateful that someone knows my name but calls me 'class beauty,' a term that seems to imply something superficial!"

Bai Lan: ......

"Then I'll go?" Bai Lan said, pointing to the exit.

Horikita tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and looked up: "Is this what you call running away in defeat? Does that mean I won?"

Is this guy named Horikita really that competitive?

Unfortunately, me too!

"Dududu..." Bai Lan blew on her lips and then said, "Alright, today I'll let you experience the real art of vocal performance! We can't perform it here, let's go outside."

Horikita: "I still have things I haven't bought."

Bai Lan: "What do you want to buy?"

"cleasing milk."

"Oh, I remember it's over there." Bai Lan pointed in a direction.

......

Soon, the items were purchased.

The two went to the cashier to queue up and pay.

When it was almost their turn, something happened at the cashier.

A tall, short-haired man was at the cashier, openly and roughly groping his own body with both hands, touching his waist and abdomen, then his thighs...

While touching it, he was arguing with others.

"They all said to wait a minute! I'm looking for it!"

"Please hurry up!"

"Damn it! This is so strange. I forgot I needed to bring that card to pay."

From their conversation, we can tell that the man with the buzz cut forgot his student ID.

Bai Lan once again urged the school to quickly implement mobile payment.

Then, Bai Lan realized that the other person looked familiar; they were from Class D.

Bai Lan was a little impatient. She put the shopping basket down to reserve a spot, then walked to the front and said, "Swipe my card."

The man with the buzz cut followed the hand that handed over the student ID, looked at the person who had just arrived, and asked with some surprise, "It's you?"
