Chapter 195

19: Eriri, get over here, I have something to ask you.

"Sorry, sorry, everyone make way, I'm really sorry."

"Everyone make way, make way."

"The Student Council is here, make way."

"Let's go, let's go, it's already over."

Fujiwara Chika and Shinomiya Kaguya rushed over from the Student Council after hearing the news.

Shuchiin was too big.

When they arrived, Kitakami Yoru had already taken Aoyama Nanami and left; they arrived late and missed them.

They still had to face a large, dark crowd of onlookers and go against the flow.

Fortunately, the Ice Princess Kaguya, the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya Zaibatsu, was at the very front.

Everyone cleared a path, allowing them to reach the crime scene.

As a result, Fujiwara Chika and Shinomiya Kaguya were greatly surprised.

"Didn't they say they were already fighting and beating each other up severely?"

Fujiwara Chika looked at everyone in the classroom in surprise.

Everything was orderly, not the mess she had imagined.

"Um, Shinomiya-san, Fujiwara-san, the matter is basically resolved..."

The class monitor walked over and said.

"What exactly happened? No one was injured, right?"

Shinomiya Kaguya asked the most important question.

"No one was injured, just a little conflict, a bit of pushing."

The class monitor muttered with a guilty conscience, and after finishing, secretly glanced at a certain seat.

The person who had splashed Aoyama Nanami with water was limping toward the restroom to wash their hair.

Shinomiya Kaguya swept her cold gaze over everyone present.

Everyone knew that Kitakami Yoru had beaten that boy up and humiliated him severely, but not one person stood up to speak.

"That's great, I was worried something big would happen..."

Fujiwara Chika breathed a sigh of relief.

She had been worried that Kitakami Yoru was too impulsive; what if he had injured someone?

She had no way to help Kitakami Yoru, couldn't help much.

"Don't make a big deal out of this..."

Fujiwara Chika grabbed Shinomiya Kaguya's hand and said softly.

"Alright."

Shinomiya Kaguya responded to Fujiwara Chika's gaze and spoke lightly:

"Everyone remember not to talk nonsense anymore. The Student Council will handle the aftermath of this matter. If you still have issues, you can send a representative to the Student Council."

The Shuchiin Board of Directors gave the Student Council high authority and usually didn't interfere with school affairs.

At the school gate.

Kitakami Yoru, who had pulled Aoyama Nanami and run out of school in one breath, stopped, tired.

He had forgotten his school bag, but it didn't matter.

"Let's rest for a bit."

Kitakami Yoru supported his knees with both hands, bending over to pant.

Aoyama Nanami was the same as him.

"So tired, ran out in one breath, finally no one is around."

Aoyama Nanami nodded vigorously.

There were so many onlookers just now, one told ten, ten told a hundred.

Maybe by tomorrow morning, the entire high school division of Shuchiin would know.

No...

Even faster, by tonight it would be known.

Breathing gradually slowed down and returned to normal.

Aoyama Nanami took the school bag from Kitakami Yoru's hand and said thank you earnestly.

"Aoyama-san, where are you going?"

Kitakami Yoru asked with a frown.

"To work?"

Aoyama Nanami raised her head and met Kitakami Yoru's gaze.

"Hmm?"

Kitakami Yoru was silent for a while, leaving Aoyama Nanami a bit confused, and she didn't leave either.

"You're still going to work? It's like this now, why not take a good rest?"

Kitakami Yoru reached out like lightning and snatched the school bag back.

"Ah?"

"I'm not tired?"

Aoyama Nanami was stunned and went to snatch her school bag back.

"No, you rest well for a few days first, then go to work."

"A few days' wages, no rush. You can demand economic compensation from the rumor-mongers in your class; they aren't short of money."

"If each of them gives you a little, won't that be enough?"

Kitakami Yoru gently pushed Aoyama Nanami's hand away.

"Bu... but..."

Aoyama Nanami stood on tiptoe anxiously; she had never thought about demanding compensation, not even a single thought.

"No buts, obediently come home with me!"

"My word is law!"

Kitakami Yoru once again gripped Aoyama Nanami's wrist tightly, and without caring about her, pulled her directly home.

"Oh... oh..."

Aoyama Nanami didn't dare to disobey, nodded blankly, and was led along obediently.

When passing by the Angel Cafe, Kitakami Yoru glanced inside.

Business was pretty good, but he didn't see Yuigahama Sui, his classmate's mother.

Yuigahama Sui managed three cafes at the same time; she should be supervising at different cafes at different times.

"Wait for me, I'll buy some snacks for you to eat."

Kitakami Yoru let go of Aoyama Nanami's wrist and walked in.

"Quick... be quick..."

Aoyama Nanami pulled back her fair wrist, rubbed it, and looked back toward Shuchiin.

School was over, and there were more and more people.

"Hello, welcome, customer."

A waiter, working by instinct, bowed and greeted Kitakami Yoru as he entered.

"Give me three cakes, make them sweet, anything is fine."

Kitakami Yoru said lightly.

The waiter was slightly startled and smiled: "Okay, please wait a moment."

After saying that, the waiter recalled Kitakami Yoru, who was printed on their cafe's flyer.

Remembered Manager Yuigahama saying to give a 20% discount?

During the wait, Kitakami Yoru walked to the light novel bookshelf, pulled one out at random, and flipped through it.

"The one you like isn't the daughter, but me?!"

This was a book from Kadokawa Bunko.
