Classroom Of The Elite 2nd Year - Full Volume
Chapter 5: Every prediction

"mrs ... Well, that's because .... our class is in trouble now, and .. I think if .. if I testify, I can

help ..."

Sakura bowed and moved away, like a frog cornered by a snake. As our teacher, Chabashira-

sensei should have understood what kind of girl Sakura was.

He should have realized that just by talking, Sakura had made great progress.

"I understand. So, then you gather courage

to advance? ”

"Yes…"

"I understand. Yes, if you are a witness as you say, of course I am obliged to pass that information to the school. However, while the school will listen to the whole story, Sudou may not be found innocent. "

"What do you mean?"

"Are you really a witness, Sakura? That's what I meant. I thought it might be a lie made up

by Class D because students are afraid of receiving negative evaluations. ”

"Chabashira-sensei, that's a terrible thing to say!"

"Gruesome? If you actually witnessed an event, you should have performed on the first day. It's natural to feel suspicious when someone steps on

timed. Considering that the witness was from Class D, it was highly suspicious. A reasonable person would doubt. Haven't you? To put it simply, a student from the same class happened to be in a rarely visited building and happened to witness the entire incident? "

Chabashira-sensei has a lot of good points. The fact that Sakura had witnessed the incident was too convenient. People will have doubts.

If I were a third party, I might think Class D had made up this story. Judging impartially, it is natural to consider this eyewitness testimony weak.

“However, a witness is a witness. I can't determine if he's lying, so for now, I

will accept his testimony. So, Sakura, I will ask you to join us on the day

deliberation. I understand that you don't like to hang out with other people, but can you do this? ”

Chabashira-sensei's words shook Sakura, as if she was testing the girl. Quite sure, Sakura, upon imagining this, became pale and sad.

"If you don't like it, you have the option to withdraw. Also, we will tell Sudou that he will participate in the deliberation. "

"Are you okay? Oh, sakura-san? "

"Y-yeah ..." Sakura's reply lacked confidence.

In addition to having to give his testimony in front of others, he must also

sitting alone with Sudou. It seems a bit cruel to force it ...

"Do you mind if we participate as well, sensei?"

Of course, it was Kushida who spoke up, most likely going to support Sakura.

"If Sudou himself agrees, I will agree to it. However, we cannot allow so many people. Only

maximum of two who can sit in deliberation. Please think about it carefully. "

We left the faculty room, though it felt more like we were expelled. After that, we went back to the classroom and explained everything to Horikita.

“Yeah, of course that's the result. That's what's expected. "

"The situation may be different now, but the difference isn't too big, right? I mean, the fact that our witness

coming from Class D does mean we are out of luck. "

I don't know if it would comfort Horikita, but I said it for Sakura. If we are not convinced

our eyewitness to come forward, it might not be possible to prove that Sudou is innocent.

“Now, Kushida-san. It would be better for Ayanokouji-kun and me to sit down in deliberation. I'm totally

understand you are supporting Sakura-san. However, if it comes to debate, then it's a different story. "

"That's ... Yeah, you're right. I don't think I'd be very useful in a debate. "

I'm considering saying something about

how would it be perfect if Kushida and Horikita worked together, but thought better about it.

Precisely because they may not be the best team I have appointed as a substitute, I think.

"Sakura-san, really?"

"N-no, it's okay."

He didn't seem to like this at all, but he also didn't have much choice at the moment.

After that was settled, we regrouped in class at lunch to discuss strategy. Horikita refused

to participate, but thanks to Kushida's persuasive tears, she agrees to join forces.

As for the person who attracted his attention, even if Sudou said he did not care and agreed, he could easily become stubborn in a critical situation.

While I was thinking about how he could be difficult at any moment, I remained silent.

"Can we really prove that Sudou is innocent tomorrow? " Kushida asked.

“Of course we will. It's clear that I've been arranged. I'm totally innocent. Don't you? ” Said Sudou.

They simultaneously looked at Horikita for her opinion. Horikita just ate her bread in silence, I don't know

because he couldn't answer or because he felt the discussion was annoying.

"Hey, Horikita. What say?" Sudou, clearly unable to read the atmosphere, got closer to Horikita.

"Don't bring your dirty face closer to me."

"I-this isn't dirty," Sudou trembled. Maybe he was injured by that unexpected blow?

"I cannot help but be perplexed by your belief that your innocence can be easily

substantiated. Even if you get evidence in your favor, you are still in a situation that

very unprofitable. "

"But we've got witnesses who know I'm innocent, and other people in the past are really jerks. That's enough, isn't it? Those guys are bad news.”

Sudou, completely blind to his own flaws, arrogantly crossed his legs and nodded

agree with himself.

“Ah, hey, wait a minute! I'm still reading that! Restore it!"

“It's okay, isn't it? I paid half of it. I'll return it later. "

Ike and Yamauchi fight over weekly manga magazines. I thought they were secretly reading the manga when we had an important meeting.

Remembering their bitter tears

since it has absolutely no points at all, I find it rather amazing that they still manage to buy magazines every week.

"Huh?" Kushida, who was sitting next to me as the Ike/Yamauchi spectacle unfolded, seemed lost in thought.

"Maybe ..," he murmured.

"What's wrong?" My toot.

"Ah, there's nothing. It'sit's okay. There's something on my mind. "

I didn't understand what he meant, but Kushida pulled out her phone and started looking for something.

After returning to my dorm, I lay in bed and unknowingly watched TV. My mind was a bit empty, because I let myself relax. Then, I got an email from Sakura.

"If I'm absent from school tomorrow, what do you think will happen?"

"What do you mean?" Although my answer was short, I waited for his response.

"What are you doing now?"

That's answer. I replied that I was in my own room.

"If it's okay with you, can we meet now? I'm in room 1106. "

"If you could keep this a secret from everyone ... That'll help me a lot."

I received two messages from him in quick succession. It is more like an SMS than an email. What exactly does he mean,

i wondered? I thought about asking why, but then stopped typing.

If I was this careless, he might have kept sending me messages, but it might have been harder to visit him.

I had a hunch that it would be better for us to meet in person, so I started to rewrite my reply.

"I'll be there in about five minutes."

After sending my reply, I grabbed my coat, but stopped. Since we were in the same dorm, dating just by wearing a jersey might not matter.

I'm heading to Sakura's room. Top level ... in other words, where the girls live. It was the first time I set foot there. Schools do not always ban boys from entering.

Even if someone saw me go there, it wouldn't be a problem.

In fact, popular people often head there to hang out and have fun.

Although we were allowed a level of relative freedom, entry was banned after 20:00. Of course, go to the floor

women in the middle of the night are forbidden.

I pushed the elevator button. When the door opened, Horikita stood there. What a terrible time.

“…………”

For some reason, I was completely unable to move. I just stood there. Is this luck or bad? In the case of meeting a

acquaintance, I must wonder.

"What's? You didn't come in? "ask.

While he was looking at me, he tried to close the door.

While I felt this might be a bad idea, I jumped in and pressed the button for the eleventh floor.

I saw that the button for the thirteenth floor also lit up. That must be Horikita's floor. For some reason, I

got the weird feeling that he was watching me from behind.

"You ... came home late tonight, huh?" I asked, without looking at it. The silence was unbearable.

“I'm shopping. Did you not see? "

I heard the rustle of the vinyl bag.

"That reminds me. You cook for yourself, right? "

It was like the elevator was going slower than usual. We're still on the sixth floor. Quietly invited by a girl

it's a stressful situation. My discomfort means I have to say something.

"This is not the tenth floor. Is that okay?" Why did he ask me about the tenth floor? What

his intention?

“For someone who doesn't like problems, you've been very proactive in getting yourself involved with the case. Or maybe you have an ulterior motive? ”Horikita is obviously investigating.

"If you have something to say, why not come out and say it?"

"You're going to meet Sakura-san, aren't you?" Ask.

"No, I don't." I immediately denied it, but wondered if Horikita could see the truth.

"good. I thought where you went was none of my business. ”

In that case, don't ask me about it! Yeah, that's what I wanted to say, but I just said those words

in head.

After a long time, we finally arrived at the eleventh floor in complete silence. I got off the elevator, trying to stay

quieter. I'm not looking back.

"I'm sorry for interrupting .." I said at Sakura's door.

"Come on." He greeted me in casual clothes.

"so. What do you need from me?"

"mrs ... Ayanokouji-kun, do you remember what you said earlier? You said I was under no obligation to step forward, even though I was a witness. Ye

also saying there's no meaning in forcing me to testify. "

It was back when I met Sakura by accident. I nodded a little.

"I. .. not confident at all."

"Is this about talking in front of others?"

"I've been so bad at it for so long. If I'm asked

to testify in front of the teachers tomorrow, I don't think I would have the confidence to answer correctly. That's so…"

"So, are you considering taking a leave of absence from school?"

Sakura nodded slightly before dropping down and putting her forehead on the table.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. God, why am I really useless?! ” He shrinks into her, obviously embarrassed. That was

the first time I saw him like that.

"Sakura, you're so strong, aren't you?"

I felt a gap between the person I was seeing now and his usual behavior, and was a little surprised.

Or rather, I was surprised.

"Well?!"

Sakura, realizing that she let me see the side

himself, blushed and shook his head.

“T-no! I'm not like that at all."

So he can be animated. I don't know, given his usually depressed appearance.

“Hey, can I ask you one thing? Why did you call me?" Kushida or someone else will be friendlier, easier to talk to.

"That's because I'm not afraid of your eyes, Ayanokouji-kun ..."

Huh huh? What does that mean? I obviously don't have scary eyes or anything, but ...

"If you're looking for someone to talk to, Kushida is a much warmer, friendlier person. He also

have many friends. ”

"Oh no. I mean, not the eyes you see with me. I mean pupil, deep behind the eye ... If you see someone deep in their eyes, you will understand. Sorry, I can't explain it well. "

So, is it like an insight into one's true self? When someone looks at me, will they see that I am not strong and have no ambition? It's kind of complicated.

"Well, it's just ... When I see a man ... even if he looks good .. suddenly I feel scared."

Maybe it came from a woman's perspective. It might be natural for him to feel uncomfortable with

man, but Sakura had an abnormal expression of fear.

By the way, I remember the day we went to fix the digital camera ...

It is true that men and women in general differ in physical strength and stamina.

However, some girls pay too much attention to that fact, and live in an abnormal level of fear.

I wondered if something had happened in Sakura's past caused her intense fear of men.

Why am I analyzing it? I felt a little disgusted with myself, as usual.

“I know it would be better to say what I saw. But whatever I do, I can't imagine it ... How can I speak so forcefully? "

He was so worried that he asked for the help of students like me. He may suffer for it during

the last few days. Even with my help, he seemed to suffer.

"If you want to stop, do you want me to talk?"

"Aren't you going to get angry?"

"I told you before, didn't I? If we force you to testify, it means nothing. "

Sakura is a very valuable witness, but the evidence is not automatically reliable. He may not have any influence on the outcome. However, if he was not around, Sudou would probably be angry.

I might have to try to persuade him to participate, but I don't know how to do it.

"mrs ... What do you think is best to do, Ayanokouji-kun?"

"I think you should do what you want, Sakura."

He may want a more concrete guide, but unfortunately this is the best I can do. I am not an extraordinary person, and certainly not qualified to guide anyone. I didn't

fit for the job.

"I understand. Well, I guess it might be troublesome to ask for your help like that ... I'm just not good.

Maybe that's why I can't even have friends of my own. "

Sakura shrugged and smiled bitterly. He looked disgusted with himself.

"Sakura, I think you'll be able to make friends with someone in no time."

"I'm sorry. I don't know how to best say what I feel ... You seem to get along well

with many people, Ayanokouji-kun. I'm a little envious. "

"No, I don't." Apparently Sakura believes that I have a lot of friends and a lot of fun.

“Maybe I'm arrogant to say this, but I think we're like friends. Me, "I said. Sakura and I stared at each other.

“We're friends? Really? ”Bisnis.

"If you don't think so, Sakura, then it's different."

"No ... It makes me happy ... hear you say that," Sakura replied, while still looking a bit

bewildered.

I began to realize that if people didn't speak directly, they wouldn't feel what that person would be like

actually was. I was surprised by the discovery of Sakura's unexpected side.

If he let this part out more, he might be friends soon. Honestly, even a small adjustment can work wonders.

But for him, I thought making a small adjustment would be difficult. What seems trivial to one person can be very difficult for another, depending on their problem.

"Thank you for coming to see me today" Sakura said.

“It's not a big deal. You can call me anytime. "

If I can lighten Sakura's burden a little, then it's worth it. I'll hand it to Sakura myself

to decide whether he will come to school tomorrow or not.

Thinking that our conversation was over, I stood up and started to leave, but Sakura still seemed to be unwell.
