Chapter 5: Having lunch with Horikita Suzune.

Soon, it was the third day.

Akasaka Ryunosuke attended class as usual.

But honestly, there was no need for the current teaching, because...

Akasaka looked around at the students who were slacking off and playing on their phones, and couldn't help but shake his head.

It was a good thing he had abandoned this group of deadweights from the start, otherwise, if he really had to lead this trashy class, even if he could do it, he wouldn't want to.

Akasaka hated people who didn't work for what they got, and they could even cause trouble at critical moments, dragging him down.

Both Kushida and Hirata were like ticking time bombs that could explode at any moment.

Leading this class to Class A? Let Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, the protagonist of this world, worry about that; he just wanted to make money now.

As Akasaka's mind wandered, he didn't realize that most of his classmates' attention was on him.

Because of a broadcast announcement after school yesterday, everyone knew that this person had joined the Student Council on his second day of school, so they were all curious about him.

Especially Horikita Suzune.

She kept looking at Akasaka, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Soon, the classroom bell rang, signaling the end of class.

Akasaka stood up, ready to leave, but was stopped by his homeroom teacher, Chabashira Sae.

"Akasaka Ryunosuke, come to my office after school. I have something to tell you."

"Tsk, so this woman is indeed targeting me?" Akasaka couldn't help but feel a headache, but what had to be faced still had to be faced.

"I understand, Teacher."

Chabashira Sae nodded and left.

Seeing this, I also prepared to leave for lunch.

Although the free lunch here was unappetizing, it wasn't to the point of being inedible; it was certainly better than steamed buns with pickles in his previous life.

Moreover, it was free, and he hadn't spent a single penny these two days, which was saving to the extreme.

As Akasaka Ryunosuke was about to leave, Horikita Suzune, who was in the front row, also stood up and came before him, completely disregarding the gazes of others, and boldly said to him:

"I have something to tell you. Let's have lunch together today."

The other boys and girls were all shocked, their mouths agape.

Especially Kushida, her eyes were vacant.

And Yamauchi Haruki, the ultimate masterpiece of the Black Room, had already started to spout nonsense.

"No way?! How could such a beautiful Horikita be interested in that guy who's not as good-looking as me?!"

A vein popped on Akasaka's forehead, and he cursed inwardly. "Although I'm not handsome, I'm not as bad as you."

"As expected of the Black Room's ultimate masterpiece, his words are truly infuriating. It's decided, I will definitely make you drop out!" Akasaka thought this inwardly, but his expression remained calm.

Facing the whispers and pointing from behind, Horikita Suzune was like a block of wood, completely unfazed, and even invited him again.

"Akasaka, are you going to eat with me or not? Answer me."

Horikita Suzune, not getting a response, was clearly getting impatient.

I couldn't help but click my tongue. How could this Horikita Suzune be so oblivious? Saying something so misleading in front of so many people, someone who didn't know would think you were interested in me.

If I hadn't known your personality in my previous life, I would have had the illusion that you liked me.

Facing the curious, jealous, and angry gazes of the crowd, Akasaka calmly nodded and agreed.

Many of the boys immediately hung their heads in dejection.

Although Horikita Suzune was very aloof, they had more or less realized it these past two days, but it had to be said that Horikita Suzune was indeed very beautiful.

Although she was indeed difficult to get along with, like a high mountain flower, her beauty, even in Class D, a treasure trove of beauties, was still among the top.

Soon, Horikita and I arrived at the student cafeteria.

We both instinctively went to the free counter.

Akasaka Ryunosuke suddenly found it a bit strange.

"You said you wanted to treat me to a meal... and you mean this free one?"

I pointed to the free cafeteria in front of us.

Horikita Suzune, however, didn't care. She calmly ordered the free meal, spending 400 yen on a pork cutlet bowl, and placed it on my tray, saying expressionlessly:

"It's for you. Eat quickly."

Akasaka Ryunosuke...

"Heh, you think 400 yen can get rid of me? Naive." But I still ate it. After all, it's foolish not to take advantage of a good deal, and there's no reason to send food that's already at your mouth back.

Horikita Suzune and I sat at a table in the cafeteria and began to eat lunch.

Horikita Suzune saw me eating her free lunch, put down her spoon, and asked me:

"You... joined the Student Council?"

I nodded while eating. "That's right. Do you want to join too? I can help you."

I gestured with my chopsticks, indicating that I could help.

Horikita Suzune, however, hesitated. "Maybe not..."

Seeing Horikita like this, I stopped the conversation. I probably understood what was going on; this awkward person, like her brother who was a siscon, was not very straightforward.

Soon, we finished lunch and went our separate ways.

Horikita Suzune spent 400 yen to treat me to a meal, just to try and get information out of me, to sound out her brother, but unfortunately, this sister ultimately backed down, throwing away 400 yen for nothing.

Soon, it was time for school to end.

I arrived at my homeroom teacher, Chabashira Sae's office, and gently knocked on the door. A pleasant yet somewhat stern voice came from inside.

"Come in."

I walked in and found someone else inside: Hoshinomiyazhihui, the homeroom teacher of Class B of the first year.

When the two saw me enter, they stopped chatting and both looked at me with predatory eyes, which made me shiver.

After I entered, Chabashira Sae looked at Hoshinomiyazhihui, who had been pestering her. "Chihie, could you step out for a moment? I have something to discuss with this child."

Seeing that Chabashira wanted to kick her out, Hoshinomiyazhihui immediately became unhappy.

"Sae-chan, what can't be said in front of me? You're not still thinking of getting into Class A, are you?

I advise you to give up sooner rather than later, because that's impossible."

Hoshinomiyazhihui said words that rubbed salt in the wound with a smile. But Chabashira Sae showed no anger, as if she had long been accustomed to it.

"If you're done talking, hurry up and leave."

Seeing that Chabashira had no reaction, Hoshinomiya pouted her cute little mouth and started to act spoiled, shaking Chabashira Sae's arm.

"Don't be like that, Sae-chan, just let me stay and listen."

Chabashira Sae impatiently pushed her out of the room, then closed the door and locked it heavily.

Outside the room, Hoshinomiyazhihui's face immediately darkened. "Want to get into Class A, Sae-chan, Sae-chan. You're still too naive. I won't let you succeed."

With that, she left.

The two inside the room began their conversation.
