I'm in a real religion, why are all the people who confess to me girls?

From any perspective, this was an unexpected incident caused by Amane deliberately teasing Morishita.

It sounds a bit convoluted, but the story is very simple, yet explaining it is incredibly difficult.

The reason is that Morishita didn't know how to explain Amane's request for her to pick up the soap. Picking up soap has a less than positive connotation, and this is the place where the word originated, which also implies something between people of the same sex.

Judging from the current situation, Shiseido Fukuyama will almost certainly associate this word with something strange, which will make things even more complicated and difficult to explain.

Thinking that he might have to explain the difference between picking up soap and picking up soap, Morishita decisively chose another way of saying it.

"I lay down on the ground by myself."

Because the word "soap" is too sensitive, Morishita omitted all details related to soap, so the incident of slipping on soap and falling down was changed to her lying on the ground.

"Morishita-kun, did you really lie on the ground by yourself?"

"……Yes."

"Why was Tianyin on top of you?"

"Yes, I made her...do that."

Morishita didn't know how she came to such an answer, but the revised answer she gave to avoid misunderstanding by the Fukuyama sisters only made things worse.

"Tsk tsk, Morishita-kun, you couldn't hold back in the locker room? That's really something..."

"Shinobu!"

Fukuyama Shinobu rolled his eyes after being glared at by Fukuyama Shinobu and turned his head away, no longer interrupting.

"What are your plans now, Morishita-kun? Do you want us to keep this a secret?"

The thought that Morishita had actually taken the initiative to lie down on the ground and let Amane... Fukuyama Shisho's mood was terrible, and his tone became much colder.

Confidential?

That's a question worth considering. If only Morishita and Amane knew about this, Morishita would definitely choose to keep it a secret without hesitation, since the fewer people who know about such an embarrassing thing, the better.

But now that Tsukaji has been shouting and making such a fuss, it's almost common knowledge. If we try to keep it a secret now, it will only allow the false information to spread uncontrollably, and who knows what strange rumors it will eventually become.

So even if it means letting everyone know about this, Morishita wants to clear her name and prove that she wasn't pushed down by Amane!!!

"No, I don't need to keep it a secret! On the contrary, I hope that you guys, Fukuyama, can spread the word for me, and preferably tell the truth to everyone who has heard Tsukaji's rumors."

Fukuyama Shisho squinted his eyes.

"What is the so-called truth of the matter?"

"I wasn't pushed down by Tianyin!"

"..."

Fukuyama Shisho no longer knew how to describe the day before, when she still thought Morishita was an indispensable key figure in Class B.

According to Morishita's confession, she lay on the ground and let Amane lie on top of her. Because Tsukaji saw this, rumors spread that Amane had pushed her down. After learning about this, Morishita actually chose to confess to this shameless thing to prove that it was consensual and not that Amane pushed her down...

This explanation is practically tantamount to an open declaration of war against all of Tianyin's girlfriends.

Fukuyama Shisho never imagined that Morishita would be such a shameless and crazy guy.

"Morishita-kun, are you sure you want us to say this? It might get you into trouble, you know?"

Fukuyama Shisho couldn't help but remind Morishita that if Morishita really had some kind of relationship with Amane, they should do it in private. Going public would be tantamount to suicide, since none of Horikita, Ichinose, or Sakayanagi were kind people.

The key to victory is to develop stealthily; being so ostentatious is extremely dangerous.

However, Morishita interpreted Fukuyama's advice differently. Morishita mistakenly thought that Fukuyama Shisho felt that publicizing the fact that she was pinned down by Amane would cause her some scandals, so he specifically reminded her.

Morishita didn't want to do this either, but compared to the bizarre rumor that Amane had pushed her down, being suppressed was fine; such things would be forgotten by everyone in a few months. But if it were said that Amane had pushed her down, that would be sensational news, and she might even be listed on the list of 'Amane's girlfriend' who would be the focus of attention.

The thought of this made Morishita feel dizzy. To avoid the worst outcome, a little scandal would be better.

"Yes, I've thought it through. This is the only way we can go right now."

Fukuyama Shisho's pupils suddenly contracted.

Morishita's answer was telling her that he had made up his mind to declare war on Amane's official girlfriends.

However, upon calming down and thinking about it carefully, it's not entirely incomprehensible. Their good time was interrupted by Tsukaji, and Morishita made a desperate move to declare war on those people. Although he had almost no chance of winning, his courage was commendable.

"Morishita-kun, you'd better watch yourself... Shinobu, go and tell everyone that Tsukaji-kun just misunderstood Morishita and Amane."

"

Hearing this, Morishita finally smiled. With the help of the Fukuyama sisters, she should be able to clear her name soon, right? But Morishita's smile quickly faded.

"OK! So, what should I say if someone asks me what the truth is?"

Fukuyama Shinobu tilted his head and looked at Fukuyama Shisho.

After hesitating for a moment, Fukuyama Shisho said with a firm gaze.

"It was Morishita who voluntarily had relations with Amane; it wasn't Amane who pushed her down."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

After saying that, Fukuyama Shinobu turned around and ran towards the innermost bath area, shouting as she ran.

"Tsukaji-kun misunderstood Morishita and Miyako. The two of them had a consensual relationship. It wasn't Miyako who pushed Morishita down!"

"Tsukaji-kun misunderstood Morishita and Miyako. The two of them had a consensual relationship. It wasn't Miyako who pushed Morishita down!"

As Fukuyama Shinobu explained, the entire bathing and bathing area fell into a deathly silence.

It was as if everyone inside had vanished, until a few seconds later, a roar of astonishment erupted.

"Huh?!!"

Morishita was completely dumbfounded. This wasn't right! Was this what she had just said to the Fukuyama sisters?

Chapter 101: The Three Great Illusions of Life - She's Interested in Me

"You'll regret it if you go in now! I've already warned you, and I won't be responsible for anything that happens."

Kamuro crossed his arms and tried to persuade the girl in front of him.

Just now, Amane had rushed into the bathhouse, and then there were shouts from inside, such as Morishita being pushed down. Kamuro, who was only a few steps away from the changing room, was so frightened that he refused to go in.

If she were to run into Tianyin as soon as she went in, and Tianyin were to push her down, she would be in deep trouble.

However, Kamuro felt it was a bit inappropriate to leave now. After all, she was the one who put the people in. Since she couldn't save the people inside the bathhouse, she would save the people outside!

As long as the number of victims doesn't increase, her conscience can find some solace. However, as the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning.

Kamuro never imagined the difficulties would be this severe. The first girl to appear before her was Hayasaka Miyabi from Class 1-B. She knew her name because Hayasaka Miyabi was the first girl in history to fight Amane and last for a full fifteen minutes.

That's right, Hayasaka Miyabi, who was being beaten and running around, was the girl who lasted the longest. For example, Kiryuin Fuka tried to stop Amane, who had already entered a berserk state, but was knocked down by a whip kick. Horikita was also knocked to the ground by a single punch.

It can be said that, apart from a very few boys, Hayasaka is undoubtedly the strongest girl who can fight against Amane.

It was precisely for this reason that, despite Hayasaka's miserable defeat, no one mocked him. In particular, the second-year students who knew Hayasaka's strength felt more sympathy and respect towards him.

Strong people are respected everywhere, especially in a school that values ​​strength above all else. Therefore, Kamuro absolutely does not want Hayasaka to be a lamb to the slaughter.

"I can sense that you, Kamuro-senpai, are thinking of me, but what I don't understand is why your 'warning' includes Miyako-senpai?"

Only after Hayasaka insisted did the school agree to let her leave the hospital early. Her fractured arm was put in a cast and a brace was installed. The school's advice to Hayasaka, given her injury, was to give up special training and return to school to recuperate. However, Hayasaka knew very well that if she chose to return to school to recuperate, the first-year students would face an unimaginable defeat in the special exams in July.

In the entire school, no one else truly knew how powerful Amane was, not even Sakayanagi.

Despite the exaggerated strength and fighting skills that Tianyin displayed in various special exams, she is actually not from a fighting style, just like her. It's just that Tianyin's talent makes it very easy for her to learn fighting techniques. In addition, her painlessness has freed her from the limitations of her body, which has made her almost invincible in this school.

What Tianyin is truly good at is probably firearms and infiltration, just like her. In the special exam, if it weren't for her being there as an assassin, Tianyin could probably finish the special exam in just one night.

Hayasaka felt she couldn't accept this result; even if she lost, she shouldn't have lost so thoroughly and so shamefully.

In the end, Hayasaka rejected the school's suggestion and chose to return to continue training for the special exam. The first thing Hayasaka did upon returning was to take a shower. She had fought too intensely in the morning, leaving her covered in sweat. However, she was then sent to the hospital for treatment and didn't have time to wash herself. Feeling sticky all over, Hayasaka decided to take a shower as soon as the cast was applied, otherwise she wouldn't have the chance to wash herself later.

She didn't want to carry that sweaty smell for months on end; by then, not only her roommates, but even she herself probably wouldn't be able to stand the odor.

But to her surprise, someone even stopped her from taking a bath. If there was an emergency in the bathhouse, she could just bear it. But the emergency that Kamuro was talking about was that Miyako Amane had just gone in.

What kind of warning is this?

She sees Tianyin almost every day, and she's never seen her encounter any danger... well, this morning doesn't count.

"Huh? Tianyin wasn't in danger inside? If I remember correctly, she's the one who broke your hand, right?"

Hearing the unfriendly tone in Kamuro's voice towards Amane, Hayasaka raised an eyebrow slightly. She didn't remember any unpleasantness between Kamuro and Amane, but if Kamuro was so hostile towards Amane, then she would have to consider getting rid of her or teaching her a lesson.

It's true that Hayasaka's arm was injured by Amane, but that doesn't mean Hayasaka has any dissatisfaction or resentment towards Amane. In Hayasaka's eyes, it's even a matter of course. If a servant attacks his master and is defeated because he is not as skilled, it's normal for him to be beaten to death, let alone have his arm broken.

Besides... her hand isn't broken!

Who is spreading rumors that her hand is broken? It's clearly just a fracture; fractures are common in fights, aren't they? Why does it sound so... when it's said to be a broken hand?

"First, I must remind Kamuro-senpai that my hand wasn't broken, just fractured. I know Miyako-senpai is very strong, but at the time I had no other means of defense and could only use my arm to block that attack. Although I ended up with a fracture, it had little to do with Miyako-senpai. After all, it was a contest between two grades, and it's normal for some tempers to flare up. Secondly..."

Hayasaka paused, glanced coldly at Kamuro, and then continued.

"Competition is competition, and life is life. Kamuro-senpai, don't take this too seriously. Miyako-senpai can't possibly solve problems with violence all the time, right? Since it's just a bathhouse, what's the big deal? Besides, I'm already like this, would Miyako-senpai even bully a disabled person who only has one hand left? So, even if it's not a den of dragons and tigers, I'm not afraid."

Hayasaka's confident demeanor influenced Kamuro, who was also aware of Amane's personality. Amane rarely resorted to violence to solve problems, and she rarely bullied even ordinary people, let alone a girl with a broken arm.

The problem is, Tianyin's bullying isn't violent.

"Hey, if you insist on going in, then go ahead. If Tianyin pushes you down, even if you beg me for help, I won't save you."

"Pushed down by Miyako-senpai?"

Hayasaka's expression turned strange.

What? You can get taken down by Tianyin as soon as you go in? Is there really such a good thing?

If she had known that Tianyin liked to push girls down in the women's bathhouse at night, why would she need to prove anything? She could have just come here to bathe at night, right? Now she's really in trouble. Not only is her hand broken, but even if she runs into Tianyin later, Tianyin probably won't push her if she sees her broken arm.

Ahhhhh!!

Is fate playing a joke on me?

Seeing Hayasaka's face turn pale, Kamuro proudly puffed out her chest. She would understand how powerful Amane was when she met her.

That guy could make Sakayanagi faint!

With a feeling of disappointment, Hayasaka silently opened the door to the changing room.

As soon as I entered, I saw Morishita explaining something to Fukuyama Shisho, while Amane quietly slipped into the bathing area.

What's happening here?

Why is Tianyin acting so suspiciously when she enters the bathing area? Most importantly... has she not changed her clothes yet?

After changing his clothes, Hayasaka ignored the shocked looks of others, calmly wrapped himself in a bath towel, and walked into the bathing area.

If you want to take a bath, you need to wash your body thoroughly in the bathing area beforehand; this is a necessary procedure to follow when taking a bath.

Therefore, these are not individual bathtubs, but rather separate wooden cubicles that actually look quite authentic.

However, because the entire bathhouse is not very large, there are only about ten stalls in the shower area at most. This is also related to the number of students in the school. The girls from the three grades combined have a maximum of about 240 students.

Currently, the number of first and second graders coming here has decreased by a third, with fewer than 160 girls.

There seem to be a lot of girls, but it's impossible for everyone to shower at the same time. So even at full capacity, there are only about a hundred people, and the ten-person cubicles can barely handle it.

Therefore, there is no need to invest more funds in expansion, since the most expensive part of a bathhouse is always the bathing area.

Hayasaka walked from the last stall forward, intending to find an empty one. However, perhaps because it was peak shower time, all seven stalls she looked for were occupied. So she had to turn to the other side and continue her search.

The entire bathing area is shaped like a capital 'L'. After searching through the longest section, Hayasaka could only try his luck with the last three cubicles. As soon as he turned the corner, he saw Amane open the wooden door of the last cubicle.

Just then, Amane's gaze also fell upon Hayasaka.

"Hayasaka, you're being discharged from the hospital so soon? I thought you were going to stay for treatment for a while."

Amane actually knew that Hayasaka had returned a long time ago, and she had originally planned to visit Hayasaka. However, she canceled her visit because she thought that Hayasaka might feel awkward seeing her. She decided to wait until Hayasaka's injuries had recovered before visiting her.

Unexpectedly, she bumped into Hayasaka at the bathhouse. Now, Amane was in an awkward position. She had just beaten Hayasaka so badly that he ended up in the hospital and even broke his hand. Not only had she not apologized, but she hadn't even visited him. If Hayasaka knew that she knew Hayasaka was back but didn't visit him, her image in Hayasaka's mind would probably be greatly damaged. So, the moment Amane saw Hayasaka, she immediately took the initiative to greet him and expressed her surprise at Hayasaka's return.

This way, the issue of why I didn't visit her can be perfectly covered up.

"The doctor also advised me to be hospitalized for observation for a period of time, but that would mean I would lose my eligibility for the special exam. I've put in so much effort for this exam, even with a broken hand. I simply cannot accept being eliminated prematurely in this way, let alone..."

Hayasaka's words suddenly stopped, and his ears began to turn slightly red.

“Miss Miyako, you have won this time. I am a newbie, but I will definitely show you my true value in the special exam.”

Seeing Hayasaka's face turn red, Amane tilted her head. There was something she had always wanted to ask Hayasaka, but she always felt that Hayasaka might not be able to answer the question, so she had kept her mouth shut. Now, however, was a good opportunity.

"Hayasaka, what do you think I'd be more interested in about you?"
