The story we started

[“I was planning to clean it, thank you——”]

【“——Yihui.”】

[A calm voice that contained an inexplicable huge pressure came from behind Zaimokuza. The pressure in the voice instantly suppressed the noisy atmosphere here, and the temperature of the air suddenly dropped sharply.]

[“Hmm!? Liu, Liu Mei?”]

[Zaimokuza's entire body shook involuntarily, like a rabbit being targeted by a predator, and his hair stood up under the pressure.]

[He turned around in surprise and saw Tsurumi Rumi, who was originally sitting at the table eating, standing quietly behind him, looking up at him calmly.]

[The expression in those eyes was calm, but Zaimokuza's intuitive radar for danger began to sound an intense alarm.]

[“Who are they?”]

[“I, I met these kids last time when I was working part-time. What, what happened?”]

【Gudong～】

[Zaimokuza swallowed hard, he felt that the current situation was really wrong! ]

[“Really? Then——”]

[Tsurumi Rumi tilted her head, her long hair cascading down her pretty face, her black pupils so deep that they were beyond words, like cracks in the ground that led straight to the center of the earth, so dark that Zaimokuza's scalp went numb when he looked directly at them.]

[“You lent your windbreaker… to someone else?”]

[“Uh, yes, what’s the problem—”]

[Before he could finish his words, a white fist approached rapidly in his field of vision. The vision in his left eye suddenly went black the next second, followed by a sharp pain.]

【boom!!!】

【"Mr. Zaimokuza!?"】

[A dull sound accompanied by Akiyama Mio's scream echoed in the store, attracting everyone's attention. ]

【"Yihui, you are a traitor and a liar."】

[Tsurumi Rumi said coldly after retracting her fist, and took a step forward. At the same time, she stepped over the fallen Zaimokuza as if by accident, leaving a dark shoe print on his clothes on his chest and on his side face.]

[When the girls in the light music club saw her approaching, they were forced to make way for her unconsciously by the overwhelming cold aura of Tsurumi Rumi. No one dared to block her way, and they all watched her back with fear as she walked towards the counter.]

[After she walked away, the members of the light music club finally reacted and surrounded the white-haired rabbit lying on the ground, looking at him worriedly.]

[“Mr. Zaimokuza, are you okay!?”]

[Akiyama Mio no longer cared about being shy, and pushed the seat with her hand in worry, but the other party did not respond to him. ]

[Zaimokuza fell to the ground with a look of death. He covered his left eye socket which was hit hard. A tear flowed from the corner of his right eye, passing across the side of his face with the black footprints. He said with a look of despair.]

[“Why… why???”]

5. Vicious Evil Two-in-One

Chiba Prefecture, Sobu High School, Health Center. 185txt.com

stare--

After seeing the flashing scenes from "Akiyama Mio's" memories on the screen, everyone was silent for a moment, and then made their own actions.

Beep-beep.

"Hello, hello, is this the police station?"

Yukinoshita Yukino's white fingers tapped the phone screen at a speed that left an afterimage, dialed the police station's emergency number, put it to her ear and spoke expressionlessly.

"Here an adult molested an underage girl. People all over the world have witnessed it. The suspect's name is Zaimokuza Yoshiteru."

"Yes, you heard it right. It's the 'protagonist' displayed on the screen you are looking at now. Based on the age difference between his current self and his future self, I have reason to believe that he has the bad sign of molesting underage girls. His address is -"

"Minister! What are you doing!? Minister!"

Seeing this, Zaimokuza was scared to death. He immediately stood up and pounced in front of Yukinoshita Yukino and snatched her cell phone. After falling to the ground, he picked up the phone and looked at it, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead.

The phone screen showed 110, with “Connected” below.

This woman actually called the police! ?

"As you can see, I am just fulfilling my civic duty, which is to inform the police when I encounter something that damages the city's appearance."

Yukinoshita Yukino put down her hands and answered calmly. Yuigahama Yui and Hiratsuka Shizuka, who were standing next to her, stared at Zaimokuza with indescribable eyes.

"I never thought that you, Zaimokuza, would have the heart to attack a little girl who is so much younger than you... You damned lolita! You are a human scum who deserves to be chemically castrated!"

"Zaimokuza, it was my negligence. As a teacher, I failed to teach you the correct concept of gender. As a result, you became a scumbag who harmed the pillars of the country in the future... You are a disgrace to the world! I am ashamed to be associated with you!"

"That was done by my future self! Not my current self, okay? Even if it was done, it was to save people!"

"And Mr. Hiratsuka, didn't you pat my shoulder with pride and say that I was your pride before? Why have you become a disgrace to the world now?!"

Looking at their disdainful eyes and listening to the cold words around his ear, Zaimokuza felt as if a mouthful of blood was stuck in his throat and he couldn't spit it out. He felt even more wronged than Dou E, as he had inexplicably been made to bear the blame for his future self.

Feeling all the strange looks around him, the dull pain in his heart made him unable to help but put his hand over his left chest, and he felt his blood pressure rising sharply.

He turned to look at Hikigaya Hachiman who was squatting next to him, and there was hope in his eyes as he looked at his best friend.

"Hachiman, I believe you are different from them! I am definitely not that kind of person, you must understand that, right!?"

"Don't worry. I know you're not the kind of scum who would attack a young girl. Even though your future self took away her first kiss, your original intention was actually good, so..."

Hikigaya reached out and patted Zaimokuza's shoulder with a kind expression, took a deep breath at the other's moved gaze, and then uttered his iconic words in the gentlest tone of his life.

"——Freshmen, explode!"

Akiyama family, Toyosato town, Shiga Prefecture.

"——Woo!"

boom--

Watching the memory fragments switching on the screen, Akiyama Mio, who had just woken up, had a stream of scorching steam gushing out from her head. Her whole body turned red like a boiled shrimp, and her eyes rolled back. She fainted for the third time onto her childhood sweetheart sitting next to her.

"Mio!? Wake up! Don't be unconscious anymore!"

"——Little——Mio——!!!"

Ritsu Tainanaka held his best friend who had fainted three times in his arms, shaking her with tears in his eyes and shouting from the bottom of his heart.

The unconscious little girl's eyes rolled back and white mist emanated from all seven orifices on her face, making her look like a steamer filled with boiling buns.

I... don't want to be a human being in my next life.

Whenever she thought about her future self losing her first kiss to a man in front of people all over the world, Mio Akiyama was so desperate that she just wanted to remake her life like this, not wanting to face this world that was too cruel to the socially anxious.

【Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, bellissimoricordo restaurant.】

【09:17am.】

[“Um… Mr. Zaimokuza, are you really okay?”]

【Looking at the face in the distance that was further injured, the left eye that was blackened by a punch closed, and only one eye was left to see, Zaimokuza continued to stick to his job to entertain customers and Asahina Mikuru who was helping him, Akiyama Mio, who was sitting at the counter drinking lemon tea, asked with a bit of pity.】

[“Don’t worry? To borrow the words of that guy Yukinoshita, the idiot’s vitality is comparable to that of a cockroach. This level of injury is just a small matter for him, shiz?”]

[Kawasaki Saki said calmly while drinking the coffee she brewed herself.]

[“Since Sister Saki has said so, then Yoshiki will definitely be fine.”]

[Tsurumi Rumi calmly agreed, while making herself another cup of lemon tea.]

[“And just asking him to work with an injury, a punishment of this magnitude…”]

[Speaking of this, the girl who was drinking from the cup opened her eyes, and a cold light flashed across her clear eyes.]

[“——Yihui brought this upon himself. As a punishment for breaking the agreement, not stoning him is already a generous move.”]

【"Well……"】

【“Senior, this girl is so scaryヽ(*.>д<>

[“Don’t, don’t be afraid! A-Zimiao, I’m here! o((⊙﹏⊙))o. (Trembling)”]

[Feeling the sword-like sharpness in Tsurumi Rumi's voice, the girls in the light music club couldn't help but tremble all over. Nakano Azusa and Hirasawa Yui even hugged each other with tears in their eyes and trembled like frightened little rabbits.]

[“A promise? Zaimokuza-san and, uh…”]

【“Tsurumi Rumi.”】

“I’m so sorry!”

[At this moment, Akiyama Mio remembered that she didn't know the name of the cold-faced girl in front of her. She only knew it after she reminded her, and her face turned red with embarrassment.]

[“Um… Tsurumi-senpai! You just said that Zaimokuza-san broke his promise? Did he have any promise with you before?”]

[“…I’m more curious about something else than this.”]

【Click.】

[Tsurumi Rumi did not answer her question. She gently placed the porcelain cup with the tea on the matching porcelain plate, turned her head and looked at the light music club members with a scrutinizing gaze.]

[“I heard from Yihui that you two met when he was working away from home?”]

[“Eh? We are here with Zaimokuza-san and——Oh!? Yes, yes!”]

[Mio Akiyama subconsciously wanted to tell the true story of how she and the others met Zaimokuza, but after seeing Rumi Tsurumi constantly looking at Saki Kawasaki next to her and winking at her, she reacted and hurriedly changed her words.]

【"……Yeah?"】

【Knowing what Zaimokuza's so-called "part-time job" was, Tsurumi Rumi softened her cold tone and looked at them with a slightly softer gaze.】

[“Then the process of your acquaintance must have been thrilling, right? Were you scared?”]

[“I’m also very curious. You know, apart from Officer Kosaka, no girl has ever come here to look for the rabbit. Can you tell me how you met Zaimokuza?”]

[Kawasaki Saki also became interested, holding a coffee cup and bending forward, she patted Akiyama Mio on the shoulder and spoke with interest.]

[“Uh… Mr. Zaimokuza and I are actually——”]

[When she bent down, the front armor on her chest, which was better than all the women present, almost touched Akiyama Mio's face. Feeling the soft pressure coming towards her, Akiyama Mio subconsciously glanced at her chest, and a feeling of frustration surged in her heart.]

[“Let me tell you!”]

[Just as Akiyama Mio was thinking about how to come up with a story, Tianzhong Ritsu, who was sitting next to her, raised his arms with excitement and spit out a rapid-fire sentence from his mouth like a student who was trying to answer the teacher in class.]

[“Speaking of how we met Brother Yoshiteru, it was a very moving story! He always arrived when we, especially Mio, were in danger. Although he took Mio’s first kiss by chance, he was the one we never——”]

【"Ritsu! What the hell are you talking about!!!?"】

[After her friend confessed the thing she didn't want to think about recently in front of two strange women, Akiyama Mio felt what social death was like. Her face instantly turned red. She immediately rushed forward and grabbed her friend's neck. Before she could say the rest of the words, she lifted her up and shook her violently in the horrified eyes of the people around her.]

【“Gugugugugu——Mio! I——I was wrong——help!”】

[“What the hell are you talking about!? First-first-first-first kiss or something, but it was actually Mr. Zaimokuza who was helping me—”]

[“——Huh? First kiss?”]

[Just as Akiyama Mio was shaking her friend who was foaming at the mouth with tears in her eyes, a calm voice came from behind her again, which made her whole body suddenly cold, and her movements stopped in an instant.]

[“Ahhhh!?”]

【“Wei-chan! Azusa-chan!”】

[Hirasawa Yui and Nakano Azusa immediately reached out and hugged Kotobuki's waist, who was sitting in the middle. The three of them huddled together and trembled continuously.]

[“…It seems that the process of your acquaintance with Yoshiki is a little different from what I expected?”]

[“Can you please talk to me, your senior, in detail? My lovely juniors?”]

[“Ugh!”]

[Taizhong Ritsu, whose eyes rolled back due to being pinched, fell to the ground from the loosened palm. Akiyama Mio's throat moved with difficulty, and she turned her head tremblingly to look behind her.]

[Tsurumi Rumi's expression remained calm, but her entire body exuded an extremely strong dark aura. The almost materialized black aura even affected the real space, causing the light bulb above her head to flicker non-stop.]

[“Well, we actually…”]

[Especially her eyes. When she looked over, Akiyama Mio clearly saw a scarlet light flashing in her eyes, which made her slender legs go weak.]

[Just when she was about to speak out to explain herself with tears in her eyes, a hearty voice came from behind her.]

[“Ms. Saki? The guests suddenly left, and I wanted to ask—huh? Why are you hiding so far away, Ms. Saki?”]

[“Nothing, just to avoid being implicated in the future.”]

[Kawasaki Saki silently retreated to the backstage with a cup of coffee in her hand, and said to Bugs Bunny, who had no idea of ​​the disaster that was about to happen, with a sympathetic look.]
