In practice, I originally just wanted to be a slacker.

The swimming pool has six changing rooms, which are for boys of different grades. There is a ventilation duct under the floor of each changing room.

The ventilation ducts are interconnected; once the vehicle equipped with the pinhole camera is placed through the ventilation duct of the men's changing room, it can be manipulated to travel to the ventilation duct of the women's changing room.

Then, the pinhole cameras on this vehicle can record everything that happens in the women's changing room.

Ike's perfect plan convinced Yamauchi, but Sudo still objected and even left Ayanokoji's room.

So the group finalized their plan and decided to implement it the next day.

"So you called me just to have me listen to this?"

Kamio Tatsuya felt that these guys were really beyond redemption, taking advantage of being minors to do whatever they wanted.

He was already starting to regret saving these guys; compared to them, Sudo wasn't so hopeless.

In fact, if they had actually succeeded in taking the photos, Tatsuya Kamio even felt that he was their accomplice. If he hadn't saved them in the first place, perhaps this whole thing wouldn't have happened.

“I can’t persuade them, so I hope you can help me. You probably don’t want to see them get exposed and drop out of school, since each of them could drop out of school in your place once.”

After hearing Ayanokoji's words, Kamio Tatsuya fell silent.

He was thinking, how much does Ayanokouji look down on him?

"What do you want me to do?"

"I hope you can take the memory card out of the remote control car when no one is in the locker room, so that their plan will fail."

"I see."

……

The next day, during his patrol, Kamio Tatsuya noticed that the three idiots from Class D were already in the pool.

Then, he and Ayanokouji exchanged a glance and went to the first-year boys' locker room. Sure enough, there was no one else inside.

Even if it were true, Tatsuya Kamio wouldn't care at all, because he had no intention of covering it up.

The lockers in the changing room were completely unlocked, which made things convenient for Tatsuya Kamio.

Based on Ayanokouji's information, Kamio Tatsuya went directly to the innermost changing room and found Ike's tools for committing the crime.

First, he used the remote control to move the vehicle to the vent in front of him, and then used a screwdriver to open the metal mesh of the vent and take it out.

Then he quickly restored the vents to their original state and threw all the tools back into the innermost changing room.

Looking at the tank in front of him, Tatsuya Kamio's lips twitched.

If these bastards put the energy they use for this kind of thing into studying, they wouldn't be hovering around the passing grade every day.

What should I do next?

Kamio Tatsuya thought for a moment. If he took the tank out like this, Ayanokouji might find out.

It would be bad if the other party knocked me down with one punch and then stole the evidence.

In that case, I'll call the person over.

Then, Tatsuya Kamio picked up his phone and dialed Manabu Horikita's number.

"What happened?"

Horikita's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Well, it's not convenient to talk about it over the phone. Could you come to the men's changing room? It would be best if you brought a few more people with you."

Horikita Manabu didn't know what Kamio Tatsuya was up to, but he still had to do what needed to be done.

"Toriyama, come with me for a moment."

"Yes, President."

After hanging up the phone, Kamio Tatsuya put the tank in his locker and then went outside.

Soon, Horikita Manabu arrived with Kiriyama and two student council members.

"what's going on?"

"Please come with me."

Kamio Tatsuya spoke calmly, then turned and walked into the first-year boys' locker room.

Next, Tatsuya Kamio took a remote-controlled car out of the cabinet.

“I received a report that someone was using this thing to spy on the women’s changing room through the ventilation duct below. This is the evidence I seized.”

As soon as Kamio Tatsuya finished speaking, both Horikita Manabu and Kiriyama looked extremely grim, while the two people who came with them looked incredulous.

They seemed to disbelieve that anyone in this school could do such a thing.

Who is the whistleblower?

"it's me."

Tatsuya Kamio turned his head and saw Kiyotaka Ayanokoji standing at the door.

Chapter 169 The deviations I caused, I shall naturally correct.

Kamio Tatsuya wasn't surprised that Ayanokouji was here, because he knew about it and had definitely been watching this place ever since they made eye contact.

Therefore, upon seeing the student council president approach, he probably immediately realized something.

Do you think I'll take him down with me?

Don't worry, buddy, I'm not that dark-skinned.

“That’s right, it’s him.” Tatsuya Kamio nodded. “This thing has probably recorded something it shouldn’t have. I suggest you have Tachibana-senpai check what’s inside.”

According to the report, the perpetrators were Kanji Ike and Haruki Yamauchi from Class 1-D. Their locker room was the innermost one, and it contained the tools used in the crime. It was through that tool that I successfully retrieved the item.

Horikita Manabu nodded with a grim expression.

"Kamio, come to the student council office this afternoon. Kiriyama, you'll take charge of the situation at the swimming pool. I'll go check with Tachibana to confirm the details."

After confirming the tools used in the crime, Kiriyama put them away and then left with his men.

Kiriyama did not confirm the identity of the person who used the changing room, because there was a possibility of framing someone.

However, the tools used in the crime and the armored vehicle will become evidence. Based on the school's purchase records, it will be easy to find out who these items truly belong to.

Soon, only Tatsuya Kamio and Ayanokouji remained in the locker room.

"I don't know."

"What don't you understand?"

"I don't understand your reason for doing this." Ayanokouji said with a hint of doubt, "Ike and Yamauchi could have dropped out of school for you once during the exam."

Reporting them to the student council now will get you nowhere; it won't benefit you at all. In fact, if the students in Class D find out, they'll only become more hostile towards you.

This was the first time that Tatsuya Kamio had ever seen Ayanokouji talk so much.

"Ayanokouji, do you think what Ike and the others did was the right thing?"

"Of course not, that's why I called you to let you know the whole story and stop them."

Although Ayanokouji didn't understand Tatsuya Kamio's actions, he was still able to distinguish right from wrong.

“Yes, what they were doing was wrong, so I stopped them, which is not hard to understand.”

Tatsuya Kamio stated this fact.

"Perhaps in your opinion, I should protect them and quietly resolve this matter, which is indeed in my best interest."

But you need to understand, I got them to sign the contract so they could take the blame for me, not so I could find two living fathers for myself.

Ayanokouji fell silent, clearly not expecting Kamio Tatsuya to be so decisive.

"What are you going to do with them?"

"If it were me, I would definitely want everyone involved in this to drop out of school, not just Ike and Yamauchi, but also the other participants. With Ike's skill level, he couldn't have made such a sophisticated remote-controlled car."

Kamio Tatsuya made no attempt to hide his thoughts.

Do you really think this is a good idea?

"What do you mean."

"Indeed, expelling Chi and the others from school is the most correct choice, both morally and legally, but..."

Have you ever considered that if Ike and Yamauchi drop out of school because of this, they might live in the shadow of being caught taking photos without permission, and it wouldn't be surprising if they were to fall into depravity?

Their current actions can only be considered minor offenses, and since their plan has been exposed, they should be frightened and won't repeat the mistake.

People grow and mature; for example, Sudo explicitly refused this mission.

Tatsuya Kamio glanced at Ayanokouji and smiled.

“Ayanokouji, you can really say that. But... have you ever thought about this? If we let them off the hook here, won't they feel that the punishment wasn't enough and that this wasn't a big deal?”

If you don't punish them, do you want them to continue committing evil deeds with this侥幸心理 (a mentality of taking chances)? If the punishment isn't severe enough, how will they remember that some things are unacceptable?

Kamio Tatsuya's words caused Ayanokoji to fall silent for a moment.

"That's certainly a possibility, but Kamio, you can't say for sure that they're beyond saving right now, can you?"

“Indeed, I can’t say they’re beyond redemption, because Sudo’s example is right in front of us, isn’t that what you’re trying to say?” Kamio Tatsuya countered, a mocking smile playing on his lips. “But why should I be responsible for their lives? Am I their father?”

Seeing that Ayanokoji Tatsuya was silent, he continued to speak.

"Indeed, they failed this time because of you, but if they had succeeded this time behind your back, what would have happened to the girls who were victimized?"

In other words, they didn't succeed. If they had succeeded, then I myself would bear responsibility for this whole affair.

Because I spent points during the midterm exams to prevent them from expelling, I was indirectly an accomplice.

Just like Father Johann Kuchberg, who once saved Hitler, he once publicly confessed: If I had known he would become a devil, I would never have saved him.

“If I had known they would do this today, I wouldn’t have saved them. Now that they have done this, I have a responsibility and an obligation to get things back on track.”

That is, to expel Ike and Yamanouchi from school.

Therefore, even if the two of them could drop out of school in place of Kamio Tatsuya during the exam, Kamio Tatsuya would still be absolutely unable to tolerate their behavior.

As for Sudo, he has indeed changed a lot. Not only did he take the blame for Horikita when she did something wrong before, but he also firmly rejected Ike's plan this time.

As human beings, there are some things we can do and some things we cannot do.

Even though Tatsuya Kamio never claimed to be a good person, he still had his bottom line.

Just as he felt sympathy when he heard Karuizawa's story, Kamio Tatsuya would not tolerate Ike and Yamauchi's behavior!

The prosperity of the world is for profit; the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

However, no matter how much it's for the sake of profit, there are some things that simply cannot be done.

Furthermore, since Tatsuya Kamio has already decided to leave Class D, he should at least leave some gifts for Class D.

I hope Mr. Chazhu will be satisfied with this gift.

“I see, I understand now.” Ayanokouji’s lips curled into an ugly smile. “I think I understand your thoughts a little better now.”

understand?

Understand what?

"But I'm curious why you're so eager to convince me. You don't seem to care at all whether Yamauchi and Ike will be expelled, do you?"

"That's right, I just want to know why you did this, since I thought you were the kind of person who values ​​profit a lot."

I was wrong; you're not just a man who only cares about profit.

Looking at the composed Ayanokouji, Tatsuya Kamio felt that this guy seemed a little different from before.

"That's all there is to it. I'm going out now. As a member of the student council, I still have work to do."

"Have you joined the student council?"

"Didn't I say that?"

"Although I guessed it from your conversation with Chairman Horikita just now, I didn't expect it to be true."

……

After a brief moment of staring at each other, Tatsuya Kamio left the locker room.

Chapter 170 To drop out or not to drop out?

In the afternoon, most of the student council members gathered in the student council office, including Kamio Tatsuya, but Nagumo was not there. Was he not at school?
