Another string reel from Bandoli

Being a weirdo will make you boycotted by everyone.

Being a weirdo...

It will become more and more like that string-wrapped heart...

“Is the current situation exactly the same as when you were boycotted?”

He said lazily that dipping fish sticks in custard was a strange way to eat them.

"Want to bet with me?"

"...What do you want to bet on?"

"I bet this time will be different, you'll make friends."

Humph, this is a bet I absolutely won't lose.

"Okay, if I win, you will be my butler for life," I said in a way that would embarrass him.

"Sure."

The words are still so casual and willful, it really makes people angry!

"Hmm... let me think about what I want if I win?"

He seemed to have already won the game. After being confused about what he wanted and worrying for a while, he

"...then give me fish stick custard flavored gummy candy."

What is that! Is there really anyone who likes this flavor of gummy candy? Stupid!

"Okay! I want to add a condition. If you win, you have to give me this flavor of gummy candy for a month!"

"You can't use that nonsense of saying you're already my friend to brush me off!"

It was a close call. I almost left him vulnerable. After all, are we really friends?

...isn’t it?

"Ha! I was waiting for you to say that! I knew you would definitely suspect that I would cheat in this way, but unfortunately, it's not the case."

He fell back slightly, as if accidentally, and made an exaggerated turn.

He opened the blue wooden door of a classroom.

"what--"

The three girls hiding behind the door suddenly lost their cover and fell down like building blocks.

He just squatted down in front of the three girls.

He frivolously snatched the book "Melody Melon" from the hand of one of the girls who was still pretending to be just passing by.

"Hey, would you care to introduce yourselves, the Incredible Girls?"

"Let me tell you, you guys are really cool!" One of the girls, a talkative girl with black curly hair, seemed to be talking non-stop. She held a half-eaten fish stick and kept talking.

She was supposed to attend a class in another mobile classroom today, but her computer had a blue screen and broke down, so she passed by the commotion caused by Charlotte and the others.

"The wolves have been bullying our friend. You can't imagine what she's been through. She was even forced into a mental institution!"

She paused briefly, then playfully apologized to her companion.

"Sorry, it wasn't personal, dear," she said to one of the blonde girls.

"...It's okay. I knew that once they used this silly nickname of mine, it would feel like insults sooner or later," the blonde girl said understandingly.

She was supposed to be working part-time today at a fish-and-chip shop, but the shop manager had a family emergency and temporarily closed the shop for the day.

She had actually received a notice from the school, saying she had to return to school after being suspended due to the incident, and that she had to come today.

"Please, they were the ones who framed me and put me in a mental hospital because I handcuffed them in a police car with fake handcuffs. They deserved it," the ginger-haired girl said bluntly in dissatisfaction.

"Because they bullied your friend?" the blonde girl teased her.

"Of course, they like to bully him!" The red-haired girl did not shy away from her companions' teasing at all.

She wasn't originally at school today, but she suddenly received a message from her childhood friend asking her to come to the infirmary for something important. However, when she was almost there, she was told that he had made a mistake.

"Hey, don't just blame her. Didn't they lock you in a trash can too? They even attached a toilet plunger to the outside of the trash can to pretend you were an alien. Even after you became a complete weirdo at school, you didn't give up fighting them for bullying others, right?"

"Someone has to do something to remember me—" The black-haired girl's expression didn't show any embarrassment at mentioning her dark history.

"So why do they hate you so much?"

String Roll Liver, who was still playing with the sonic screwdriver, knew the answer, but he still asked it so that Sanyuan Charlotte could understand them better.

"Maybe it's because I'm too smart... I've even gone against them... many, many times."

The black-haired girl was a little speechless. She had a bit of a weird nature, so much so that she kind of... well, looked down on some of the normal things in social interactions.

And they are three junior high school students in the lower grades.

There are even three commoner students in the aristocratic college who were admitted because of immigration policies, convenient transportation and academic performance.

Without a doubt the freak among freaks in this school.

"So, can we be friends?" the ginger-haired girl asked boldly, her eyes so clear.

She extended her hand towards Sanyuan Charlotte.

It seemed as if something was resounding.

"I'm Amy Pond. May I ask what your name is?"

——She didn't even know who Sanyuan Charlotte was.

……

After saying goodbye to them, Sanyuan Charlotte was still in shock.

What a bunch of weirdos.

What a bunch of weird girls.

What a bunch of... weird friends.

"So? I won?" He still spoke in that hoarse voice as if he didn't care about anything.

The sonic screwdriver twirled back and forth between his fingers.

The two of them had already boarded the Sanyuan family's exclusive extended-edition super luxury car.

The car was driving smoothly and the scenery outside was ever-changing.

"...You arranged all this, didn't you?"

He didn't speak.

"! Willful! Nonsense! Acting recklessly! Changing the trajectory of my life is one thing, but now they're even trying to control my circle of friends!"

"It's really... too bad... Er?? Yisanwu (seven) Jiushan弍]*..."

I don’t know what to do, I feel so miserable…

He came to his senses and seemed to have just heard what I said.

"Then you hate me."

He said it as if it was a matter of course.

"So they're going to take you to some mascot pop-up shop, do you want to go?"

"..."

"They're not people who can't live without you. You can also refuse to make friends with them. Wouldn't that be a win? Taking control of my life as revenge sounds great."

"..."

"Charlotte, you get to decide what kind of friends you make."

"So you want to please them and change yourself to make friends with them. What kind of friends are you?"

His golden eyes looked directly at me.

There was not a trace of impurities, and unlike his usual indifferent look, he spoke in a more serious tone.

"For the sake of social connections, I can make friends with people I don't like."

"But only those who can freely show their true selves in front of them are the friends I recognize."

"So, what are you going to choose, Sanyuan Charlotte?"

"Are you wearing a disguise to negotiate with friends you don't like?"

"Or should I show my true self and make the friends I want to make?"

The car stopped, but instead of driving to the door of her mansion as usual, it stopped at the headquarters of the Sanyuan chaebol.

"Then let's leave it at that for now. I still have to take care of your family's work."

He just walked away.

There was not a ripple of response to what I said.

The car door was opened again

"Oh yeah, remember your fudge, as a trade."

A plate of fried fish fingers and custard was forcefully stuffed into his arms.

"The Stasis Stand has limited storage space, so I'll give you the last one. I noticed you didn't eat any of it before."

As if he was using up his inventory, he complained about buying too much at once and closed the door.

The fried fish in my arms was still steaming as if it were freshly baked.

I followed his way of eating and rolled the fried fish strips in the custard, letting the thick custard wrap them around.

An indescribable mixture of salty and sweet taste

“Puff…”

“What a strange taste”

"What a strange boy..."

"Really..."

The car started off.

Sanyuan Charlotte was stunned for a moment, and looked at him with complicated emotions, getting farther and farther away.

Until I can no longer see that person...

Although the plot of Charlotte, the daughter of a super tycoon, being isolated is very clever.

But the plot is so magical, so I just wrote it that way ()

After all, reality is much more extreme than this magical case.

I don't know if anyone has asked, but there's no way Danny could really be buried underground.

This is the wonderful world of Bandoli.

The Danny family was simply transferred by the Sanyuan family's big man to the underground kingdom branch to be responsible for the methane mining business ()

Why is this extra chapter getting longer and longer as I write it?

I haven't even written the main text that fast.

I'm reading the new episode of Ruimo Group 2, and it's 6K just by writing it casually.

And the progress of the entire extra-story to the end is still far away...

I was planning on finishing it in two chapters...

Same old free extra.

In this situation, I don’t even know if anyone wants to read my sequel…

Extra: [Extra] Charlotte and the Butler String Scroll whom she cares about

Awakened by the blinding light and the overly hot touch of the morning sun.

The pajamas were soaked with sweat and seemed transparent.

String Roll Liver...
