The Witch Trial Begins with the OO Buckethead Zombie

Did you really hear Yukishiro's cries for help?

Admit it, Emma Sakura, you didn't hear anything, and Yuki didn't say anything.

From the very beginning, they interfered without permission, arbitrarily assumed it was bullying, and arbitrarily said things like they wanted to protect her.

It's you.

"Waaah..."

My eyes started to well up with tears without me even realizing it.

Sakura Emma squatted down, stuffed the lunchbox into her arms, curled up, and hugged her legs.

Only at this moment did the girl finally realize how ridiculous her previous behavior had been, her large, bright red nose hanging straight down on the tip of her nose.

...She gave up on keeping an eye on the two people.

His gaze was fixed blankly, scattered, on the ground beneath his feet.

I know, I know, of course I know.

I am the one who is useless and pathetic. I am the one who feels lonely and can't accept being without friends.

But I just hate one person!

Hiro left, leaving me alone to study abroad.

Xiaoxue fell in love and happily went on dates with the person she liked.

I should be happy for Hiro, because studying abroad is an incredibly impressive thing.

I should be happy for Xiaoxue, because she, who has always been bullied, has finally found someone who can truly protect her, and because she, who, like me, has never had many friends, has finally found someone she can entrust her life to.

I should be happy for them.

But I can't be happy at all.

That's my friend.

They are all my friends.

My only friend.

Please, please don't steal my friend...

What was originally just a joke seemed to have come out of the girl's heart at this moment.

Tears gradually soaked her sleeves; quite pathetically, the tears that had been welling up in Sakura Emma's eyes overflowed.

Her voice choked with sobs, and her emotions gradually began to spiral out of control. The girl squatted beside the trash can, like an abandoned stray dog.

"Waaah, waaah, waaah..."

I hate someone.

I hate Nikaido Hiro.

I hate Tsukishiro Yuki.

I hate Hoshino Utsunomiya.

I hate it, I hate it all.

They know perfectly well how useless I am.

I've already tried so hard to appear like a failure in front of you.

I've been trying so hard to maintain this relationship.

But why...?

Hiro should be unable to let go of me, the pathetic one who always fails and makes mistakes; Yuki should trust me, the one who, despite my recklessness, still musters the courage to protect her; and Hoshino, the transfer student, falls in love at first sight—

I don't like you guys anymore.

I need to pull myself together. I need to let go of these fake friends who would easily betray me, and I need to cut ties with the friends who would easily go abroad and leave me behind.

I want it, I want it, I want it.

Make a hundred friends!

Emma Sakuraba's dream is to make one hundred friends.

This is a wish that Emma Sakuraba made a very, very long time ago.

Although she couldn't make any friends at all, this was the only time, and only at this moment.

Only this wish, only this expectation for the future, this fantasy of "when I make lots and lots of friends, I'll make you regret leaving me behind, I'll make you regret leaving me all alone," could slightly stop her tears and bring out a chuckle.

"Hero will be flying back home," he said, quickly grabbing her hand.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Emma, ​​I was wrong to leave you alone and run away from the country. Please forgive me and please continue to be my friend."

She simply slapped Hiro's hand away coldly.

"Hmph, regretting it now? Too late!" She sneered and turned around with a mocking laugh: "The current me has a hundred friends. You're not someone a reclusive woman like you, who spent half a year overseas and came back with no friends, can possibly associate with!"

Xiaoxue will break up with Hoshino Utsunomiya and be completely subservient to her.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Emma, ​​I neglected your feelings and only cared about my own romance. I completely abandoned our friendship. It was wrong of me. Please forgive me. Please continue to be my friend."

She simply looked down at Xiaoxue with a condescending gaze.

"Hmph, regretting it now? Too late!" He sneered, squatting down with a mocking laugh. "A person who's so love-struck that they abandon their friends doesn't deserve to be friends with a hundred people!"

Hoshino Utsunomiya was ruthlessly abandoned by Yuki, just like a toy that was played with and then thrown away.

She could only squat pitifully on the ground, stuff the lunchbox into her arms, curl up, hug her legs, and burst into tears on the spot, completely pathetic.

Only at this time.

Kind-hearted Emma.

Emma, ​​the good girl.

Pure Emma.

With the confidence to have a hundred friends, the affability to make a hundred friends, and the gentleness to make a hundred friends feel close to you.

He walked toward the poor child who had been abandoned.

Hearing his sobs and seeing his disheveled appearance, I could only sigh helplessly.

She knelt down in front of him, reached out her hand, gently stroked his head, and gave him a very tender smile.

then.

Let me say something simple.

"Are you alright?"

"Are you alright?"

The man's voice echoed in my ears, coinciding with my deepest fantasies.

Chapter 48 Aren't you going to eat it?

Why did it turn out this way?

Hoshino Utsunomiya couldn't help but ponder this question.

Since the start of the holiday, considering that friendship is something that needs repeated, dedicated, patient, and persistent maintenance to remain vibrant, and that feelings will quickly fade if there is no contact for a long time.

From the very beginning, Hoshino Utsunomiya had devised a strategy to find ways to get Yuki Tsukishiro out of her house every day.

Don't worry about the specifics of what to do yet, just shout it out first.

Although the first day seemed to be a little unsuccessful, the final outcome was far beyond expectations.

However, judging from the sense of closer relationship and the system's acceptance.

Hoshino Utsunomiya thought there shouldn't be any problem.

Just keep going, spend more time together, and strengthen your bond.

It's time to betray them!

Call everyone out, then think together about what to do, and then drift through the day aimlessly.

Several days passed in succession. She went out wearing a Western-style dress, while he went out wearing his school uniform.

Hoshino Utsunomiya didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

After all, he didn't have any other clothes.

But Yuki Tsukishiro felt that this was very problematic.

Why did she insist on going to Hoshino Utsunomiya's house on the first day of her vacation?

For Hoshino's loungewear!

But no, there wasn't?!

It's wrong to have no skin, but it's unacceptable to have no skin.

School uniforms are nice, but other clothes are still needed.

So, today, Yukishiro made a suggestion.

"Let's go buy some clothes."

"Consider it a gift from a friend."

—She paid for it.

Miss Witch was going to take out her allowance, which was practically nothing from Miss Tsukishiro, to dress up Mr. Hoshino properly.

First, take off that damn school uniform!

The meeting was scheduled for noon, but after the lesson learned on the first day, the two quickly realized that morning was not a very good time.

Although it seems like a very long time, there are many, many things that can be done.

But that's precisely why it's inappropriate.

The meeting place was naturally at the school gate. Although the school seemed to have recently brought back some students who failed the final exams for make-up classes, they didn't enter the school gate, so it obviously wouldn't affect them.

We met, exchanged greetings, and then headed to our destination.
