Demon Slayer: I was taken home by Shinobu Kocho at the beginning.

Sakayanagi's face stiffened again at Ichinose's words.

She couldn't understand why the previously timid Ichinose had suddenly become so assertive, so...shameless.

Don't get me wrong, at this school, shamelessness isn't entirely a derogatory term.

Just then, a bystander suddenly exclaimed.

"The student council's account has released a statement."

"what?"

The students instinctively took out their phones and opened the school's forum.

Recently, students have been engaging in a form of resistance using defamation and slander, and so far, the rumors have had a serious impact on the lives of some students.

This situation is disrupting school discipline, so the school does not want these rumors of framing individuals to continue to spread, and the student council will take emergency measures.

Therefore, anyone who spreads rumors without cause will be punished, including but not limited to suspension from school and deduction of class points. Those who cause serious consequences will be expelled.

As soon as the student council's announcement was released, happy smiles immediately appeared on the faces of the students.

As for Sakayanagi, his face was gloomy.

"Hmph, the school has finally taken action." Sakayanagi sneered. "Let's go. Now that the school has taken action, there's no room for us to intervene."

Understanding the situation, Sakayanagi ordered the students to retreat, and the noisy class was greatly excited.

Although they had been promoted to a higher class, this was the first time they had won in a direct confrontation, which made the students very excited.

Chapter 262 Hello, Chairman Yuecheng

Some time has passed since Sakayanagi's incident with Ichinose, and with the release of the student council's announcement, the rumors about Ichinose have gradually subsided.

This is the student council, which has been granted power by the school, and the school's power comes from the students' support and trust.

Imagine if the students of this school no longer trust or support the school and choose to leave one after another, then the school rules will no longer be of any use.

Therefore, the school's power is absolute until it loses its credibility.

Even Sakayanagi was unwilling to challenge this authority.

The days have quietly passed to mid-February.

Today is February 14th, Valentine's Day in the traditional sense.

As soon as Tatsuya Kamio stepped out of his room, he saw a person emerge from the elevator at the end of the corridor: Yosuke Hirata from Class D.

Kamio Tatsuya subconsciously took out his phone to check the time, wanting to know if he had come out too early.

Because he had never encountered Hirata during his school days, since he was a punctual student, and Hirata, based on his observations when he was still in Class D, would arrive at the classroom 15 to 20 minutes early.

However, when he got closer and saw the large and small bags in Hirata's hands, he understood.

Those bags and packages of chocolates really give it a Valentine's Day feel to it.

"Good morning, Hirata-kun." Tatsuya Kamio smiled amusedly. "Being a popular man must be tough."

Upon hearing Tatsuya Kamio's words, Yosuke Hirata gave a wry smile.

"It made you laugh."

Well, judging from his performance, it seems that nothing unexpected happened because of Koenji and Yamauchi's withdrawal from school.

"No, I didn't mean to mock you, I was just teasing you."

After greeting Hirata, Kamio Tatsuya headed for the elevator, while Hirata opened his room door and went inside.

At the same time, the elevator doors opened, and Tatsuya Kamio stepped inside.

Upon arriving on the first floor, Kamio Tatsuya saw many female students waiting in the lobby.

……

Haha, no wonder it's Valentine's Day. Normally, you'd hardly run into any girls at this kind of time.

However, they did not gather around to give Tatsuya Kamio chocolates.

This was mainly due to the efforts of Shiina and Kamuro.

Because they usually get along well with the girls, most of the first-year girls know that one of the two will probably become Tatsuya Kamio's girlfriend.

They probably felt that Tatsuya Kamio was already taken, so girls who weren't close to him wouldn't take the initiative to approach him unless they were very confident.

Another reason is that there aren't many girls who can catch Tatsuya Kamio's eye, and those here happen to be unfamiliar to him.

However, this situation did not last long, because he actually saw an upperclassman at the entrance of the first-year dormitory building.

"You finally came out."

As soon as they met, Akane Tachibana expressed her dissatisfaction.

"Good morning, Tachibana-senpai, what are you doing here?"

"Of course I'm here to give you a gift." As she spoke, Tachibana took out a beautifully wrapped box from her backpack. "Just accept it with gratitude. You won't get any other chocolates for Valentine's Day anyway, will you?"

So, as a senior student, I think I'm pretty competent, right?

"Hmm, it's not my favorite, is it? If it is, I wouldn't dare accept it, because I'm afraid Horikita-senpai will beat me up."

Looking at Akane Tachibana in front of him, Tatsuya Kamio, in a good mood, started joking.

"What are you saying, you idiot! Of course, you should learn what is your true destiny, what you have is just a matter of duty."

Without a word, Tachibana Akane shoved the chocolate into her hand.

"Is that so?" Tatsuya Kamio smiled, then looked at the chocolate in his hand. "Well, thank you anyway, Tachibana-senpai."

"You're not as annoying as you were at first," Akane Tachibana said, quite pleased with Tatsuya Kamio's attitude. "Alright, it's about time, I have to go now, bye-bye."

Watching Akane Tachibana's departing figure, Tatsuya Kamio chuckled softly.

Judging from how they address each other, their relationship seems to have taken a significant turn for the better.

Well, I guess I did something for Horikita-senpai and repaid his kindness.

However, he didn't expect that the first chocolate he received today would be from Senior Ju.

I originally thought it would be a gift from Shiina or Kamuro.

I haven't eaten yet, so I'll just eat this as my meal.

As he walked, Tatsuya Kamio opened the packaging, took a piece out of the plastic box, and put it in his mouth.

Then, Tatsuya Kamio's face suddenly scrunched up.

Gan!

This is just too damn tough!

And judging from the situation, it seems to be the handmade kind.

This guy definitely did it on purpose, right?

Kamio Tatsuya put the portion he had pulled out back in, intending to throw it away. He had already eaten one, so it wouldn't be a waste of the other person's kindness.

But just then, he noticed a piece of paper inside the box.

Paper?

Could this be an instruction manual for consumption?

With these thoughts in mind, Kamio Tatsuya pulled out the paper.

It turned out that this was not a cooking instruction manual, but rather resembled a letter.

Judging from the delicate handwriting above, it must have been written by a girl, yes, it should be the work of senior Tachibana Akane.

Then Tatsuya Kamio began to read the contents of the envelope and immediately realized that it was a thank-you note.

[Please allow me to thank you at the beginning of this letter...]

Then, when he saw the ending, Tatsuya Kamio's lips twitched involuntarily.

[I prepared ten chocolates in total, one of which is very bitter. I hope Kamio-kun won't get to eat it. PS: Because they all look the same, I can't tell them apart.]

Haha, I'm so sorry, I was the first one to get a bite.

Tatsuya Kamio's lips twitched slightly. After thinking for a moment, he decided to abandon the idea of ​​throwing away the box of chocolates and took out a second one.

It should be sweet, right? I wouldn't play such a prank.

The second chocolate was indeed sweet.

Sigh, it's tough.

Even though the probability was one in ten, why did I choose the bitter one first?

I remember I've always been very lucky. Could it be that I've used up all my good luck?

With this thought in mind, Tatsuya Kamio arrived at the school.

Along the way, I also saw scenes of girls giving chocolates to boys.

Wow, such a long period of closed-off learning has left the students' hormones with nowhere to go. Not only the boys, but most of the girls have also become interested in dating and have someone they care about.

Upon entering the teaching building, before even reaching the classroom, Kamio Tatsuya saw a cute and sweet-looking girl standing at the door of Class C, talking to her friend.

Suddenly, her friend nudged her and then gestured towards Tatsuya Kamio.

The person involved also looked over here.

"Good morning, Kamio-kun, please accept this."

Looking at the package that Kikyo Kushida handed over, it was obvious that it was chocolate.

"Thank you."

After a brief thank you, Tatsuya Kamio accepted the chocolate from Kushida, while Kushida herself said goodbye to her friends and headed towards Class D.

Speaking of which, Kushida hasn't come to my place to vent his emotions for a while now.

Have they found a new outlet for their frustrations?

Good morning, could you please move aside?

A weak, feeble voice suddenly came from behind, startling Kamio Tatsuya. He turned around and saw Horikita Suzune from Class D.

However, Horikita Suzune looks extremely tired now, and it's unclear what she's been through.

"You look exhausted. Has the idiots in Class D finally worn you out?"

A smile appeared on Tatsuya Kamio's lips.

“Although there are indeed a bunch of idiots in Class D, my exhaustion doesn’t come from them, but from…” Horikita said, glancing at Kushida who was walking towards Class D’s classroom.

Kamio Tatsuya suddenly realized.

I see, Kushida.

No wonder Kushida hasn't been coming to my room as often lately; he's been causing trouble for Horikita.

Horikita knew about her situation, so she didn't need to hide herself from him and could freely vent her emotions.

Tsk tsk, just thinking about Kushida cursing in front of Horikita makes me want to laugh.

Judging from the current situation, Horikita seems to be quite indulgent towards her.

No, I'm afraid that in Horikita's eyes, Kushida was an indispensable force in maintaining the stability of Class D, which is why he made the sacrifice.

The relationship between these two seems to be starting to get interesting.

Hehe, that's what makes it interesting. It would be quite boring if Class D never put up any resistance. It's like when you're doing something, if the other party is like a dead fish, what's the difference between that and playing with a toy?

"I see. Good luck, young lady."

After leaving those words behind, leaving a somewhat bewildered Horikita behind, Tatsuya Kamio walked into Class C's classroom.

Just as I returned to my seat, Shiina came over with a gray-white box in her hand, with a beautiful ribbon tied around it.

Although Shiina didn't say anything, she could tell from the other person's smiling eyes.

This must be my favorite chocolate.

"Thank you, I won't stand on ceremony and will take your leave."

Then, after Shiina gave out the chocolates, the girls in Class C seemed to be stimulated by something, and they all crowded over to this side.

Ryuen, who was sitting in front of Kamio Tatsuya watching the show, was pushed against the wall by this force.
