The comments section all think I'm a really good person.

[The school doctor really is Grandma Toyota; she must be almost eighty years old...?]

[The old lady has been retired for a long time, yet she was invited back.]

[After all, she's a rare healing ability user... although the healing process is a bit scary though.]

Horrifying? How so?

The old woman's ability was actually resurrection.

【Huh!? Isn't that even more incredible?!】

[The specific ability is actually to revive a fresh corpse that has been dead for less than a minute to its best condition before death... but how should I put it, the conditions are too demanding.]

[Most of the time, the usage is to kill the critically injured and dying soldier first, and then use the ability to revive them.]

The most overpowered aspect of this ability is that it can even regenerate severed limbs. Even if someone is reduced to a mere skeleton with only the body and head remaining, it can completely regenerate, so...

"...It hurts a lot."

This little old lady's abilities are quite surprising; I thought she would be the gentler type.

Don't let Grandma Toyota's appearance fool you; her most frequently used medical tool is a chainsaw...

As Kita Kirihara watched the comments section, he overheard Koizumi Saki and Grandma Toyota whispering about her old injuries, and couldn't help but start thinking:

Could I also be treated with special methods?

Actually, Kita Kirihara didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

If her wounds could be healed, it wouldn't be a big deal for her to control the character card to dismember herself, since these injuries have severely affected her ability to use them.

It wasn't that she didn't want the Silver Court's character cards to help her; for example, if the alchemist Carol made dozens more usable bodies for her, it wouldn't be a big problem.

However, this would make Saki Koizumi notice something was wrong.

In any case, she should be the Kita Kirihara that Koizumi Saki knows.

However... there might be a few more anomalies now.

But that was also part of the original plan for Kita-giri.

Kita Kirihara poked her head out from behind the curtain, looking at Koizumi Saki with slight disappointment as she sweated profusely and rejected Toyota's treatment plan. Suddenly, she heard a strange noise coming from the bed next to her.

Are there other people here?

Kita Kirihara wore a slightly curious expression. In fact, when she first entered the infirmary, she had already seen what was going on inside through the camera lens.

Including this hospital bed where other students are lying.

Although he was described as "lying down," he was actually tied to the bed with ropes and had a rag stuffed in his mouth, looking just like a classmate who had been kidnapped.

Kita Kirihara walked over, lifted the curtain, and saw a rather tragic scene.

The unfamiliar classmate was tied to the hospital bed in a rather brutal manner, with his hands and feet firmly bound and a wad of cloth stuffed in his mouth.

After realizing that Kita Kirihara had finally noticed him, the guy frantically pounded on the bed and made even louder "whoosh" noises, trying to attract Kita Kirihara's attention.

Kitakihara: ...?

What exactly is going on with this medical room?

【hhhhhhhh Isn't this Teru?】

[That's terrible, but I still have to collect Ahui's embarrassing past.]

[This is Hui during his buzz cut period, from Wuhu]

From the comments, Kita Kirihara learned the name of the classmate in front of him: Inoue Teru.

Although she sounds like a boy, she is actually a petite girl.

Inoue Teru is a member of Class B this year, and his entrance exam score is only behind Kita Kirihara's.

He appears carefree and boyish, but he actually demonstrated extraordinary meticulousness during the entrance exam, showcasing remarkable overall qualities.

At first glance, Kita Kirihara thought he was a boy, since his buzz cut looked rather rugged, and his stiff hair was quite deceptive.

However, upon closer inspection, Inoue Hiroshi's face is indeed delicate and cute, and coupled with his youthful spirit, he exudes a neutral and heroic air. His frame is also petite, and his body proportions are more in line with those of a woman.

Matching the rather unconventional buzz cut hairstyle, the other person had letters tattooed on the second knuckles of both hands, like band members, giving them a rather rebellious look.

It looks like an abbreviation of a long string of names.

After being rescued by Kita Kirihara, Inoue Teru spat twice, as if the muddy taste of the rag still lingered in his mouth.

As soon as she was rescued, she sat up abruptly and anxiously grabbed Kita Kirihara to ask about the time: "Excuse me, what time is it now?"

Kita Kirihara honestly answered with the time, and Inoue Teru immediately panicked: "It's all over, it's all over, we're going to be late..."

The former couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's too late?"

"Lunch!" Inoue Teru exclaimed in a panic. She practically jumped out of bed, slipping on her shoes as she walked towards the infirmary. "I haven't bought dessert for lunch yet..."

Suddenly, she stopped.

She saw a Toyota school doctor blocking the doorway. It was this seemingly kind old lady who had knocked her down. Inoue Teru silently stopped in his tracks as he was about to step outside.

She considered whether she could stand up to the Toyota school doctor outside, as well as the other person.

Kita Kirihara reminded her, "Don't worry about lunch, right? There's a restaurant, isn't there?"

She had already figured out the facilities here beforehand, knowing that the college had a restaurant that provided meals for students.

Generally speaking, Kita Kirihara doesn't like to eat his meals in places like the cafeteria, but since he's new here and hasn't prepared any ingredients, he plans to just grab something quick and easy.

It's also a chance to try out the skills of a chef from a vocational college.

Kitchens are provided in both student and faculty dormitories, which is very convenient, so there's no need to worry about meals.

Why is Inoue Teru in such a hurry?

"I'd be so grateful if my husband could just make do..." Inoue Teru hesitated, his head throbbing at the thought of his childhood friend dragging him along to this school.

She's picky about food, spoiled, and has a terrible personality. If I hadn't come with her, she probably would have slunk home in a few days because of her bad personality, inability to make friends, and not eating properly.

On his first day of school, Inoue Teru had spent the night packing his belongings and didn't sleep well. As a result, he accidentally bumped his head while packing in the dormitory and planned to come to the infirmary to get some medicine to apply.

As a result, the old lady discovered that she was severely lacking in sleep and rest, and she immediately tied her to the bed and ordered her to rest.

Inoue Teru, who was inexplicably tied up: ?!

It's almost lunchtime, and if I don't prepare lunch properly, my little darling will throw a tantrum!

I thought that if I ran away like this, the old lady might catch me and bring me back.

However, the other party didn't seem that angry. He just chuckled twice as Inoue Teru and Kita Kirihara left and said, "Take care of yourselves, kids."

Kita Kirihara bid farewell to this respectable elder with a cheerful smile: "I will, thank you for your concern."

Inoue Teruya gave a muffled reply and then quickly slipped away.

It was at this moment that Teru Inoue noticed that Kita Kirihara and he seemed to be heading in the same direction.

She barely realized what was happening and noticed the bracelet the tall, white-haired man was wearing: "Huh? You're in the same class as me?"

Because Kita Kirihara was quite tall and had long legs, it took Inoue Teru almost twice as long to take one step. Inoue Teru had to quicken his pace to keep up with Kita Kirihara, much like a small dog trotting alongside her.

She noticed the silver bracelet Kita Kirihara was wearing, which bore the emblem of the National Heroes High School.

It's called a school badge, but it's actually a silver metal plaque about the size of the first knuckle of a thumb, containing a chip.

Depending on the student's needs, it can be placed on bracelets, necklaces, or even chokers, so it should be categorized as an accessory.

The nameplates for the Hero Training Department are diamond-shaped, while those for the Logistics Support Department are oval-shaped.

Kita Kirihara's bracelet wrapped around her slender wrist several times with room to spare. The slightly drooping plaque featured half a Tokyo Tower and a star logo, with simple lines and a subtle golden sheen.

This is the emblem of the National Heroes Academy, which can identify students and collect data. With this emblem, many facilities at the tower will open their doors to students, and relevant government agencies will cooperate with the work of the Heroes Reserve.

Unlike Kita Kirihara's style, Inoue Teru chose a necklace style for his school badge, which he is currently wearing around his neck.

Although she was a little surprised, upon closer reflection, it actually made quite a bit of sense.

Those Class A members who frequently use their abilities give off a different vibe than Kita Kirihara.

Inoue Teru may seem carefree, but he is actually quite meticulous.

She could tell that Kita Kiri was someone like herself.

For example... someone who is very good at taking care of people?

To be honest, I don't have a specific idea of ​​the curriculum of this school. Inoue Teru thinks that the so-called Class B is just a babysitter for the heroes.

This is what she usually does: taking care of her willful young lady and providing her with any help she can to those with terrible personalities.

She hadn't originally planned to come, but she couldn't resist her child's persistent pleading, and given the nature of her work, she reluctantly took the entrance exam.

Fortunately, the compulsory course for servants in the Yagawa family included an exam, which allowed her to pass.

Because of the hellish difficulty of the entrance exam, Inoue Teru was quite curious about Kita Kirihara, whose grades were higher than his own.

What kind of person could possibly pass that kind of exam with a perfect score...?

She saw it now.

She's really tall, and she can quickly become friends with strangers. When you're with her, you don't feel that she's being deliberate at all; there's just a very natural sense of warmth.

He is an excellent and reliable person.

Inoue Teru couldn't help but make this assessment in his mind.

They quickly returned to their dormitory.

As soon as I stepped into the dormitory, I heard a commotion inside. Aijo Karen tried to mediate, while Asagami Shinku and another woman with a very fiery temper were arguing and exchanging barbs.

Even more noteworthy is—

— Shiori Hachiya, a teacher who was supposed to be preparing for the afternoon's entrance ceremony, was hiding behind the door, watching the students argue with great interest.

They were even a little excited, almost to the point of egging them on to fight.

Kitakihara: ...?

123. Beware of the giant banana tree (4K)

Shiori Hachiya's amused behavior of watching the spectacle was finally brought to an end by a small cookie that flew from one of the students' hands.
