I Got Into the Mass Production Anime

35. Returning the favor

35. Return the favor

After the conversation with Yuna Sasaki.

I went up to school with Inazuke.

Her She asks about the identity of the note I hid earlier.

“Ah… That’s true.”

I gave her a rough explanation of her situation.

Why did you receive that note, what was it written on?

And how did it end up in her hands?

After hearing my words, Ii Nazuke nodded her head and said.

“Hmm… It’s definitely dangerous. It’s kind of… Creepy. But isn’t there any proof that it’s from Shujinkoo?

“Is it possible? I must have known better than anyone else that that was impossible.”

“…? Why is it impossible?”

I started to explain her to her.

“Let’s say the note is made public. It’s also known that it’s mine.

Then how will the other guys act? After coming to me and confirming the truth, ah! It wasn’t Shujinko’s! Would you think

No. Before that, I’d just believe it. And it’s only natural to go around bragging about it to other kids. Even if I explain belatedly, the guys who are already confident won’t believe me.

It has always been like that in the past, and it will always be like that in the future. What they want is talk, not the truth.”

I don’t doubt what I said. Because it was a pattern that I had already experienced myself many times.

Yes. Several times…

…Wait.

“Hey- that’s right~.”

Come to think of it, one of the main culprits that made me suffer…

“Still, just the two of us…”

“… Hey.”

“…? Why, Shujinko-kun?”

“What do you feel when you see these patterns?”

“Eh? Feeling?”

From noble mtl dot com

“The emotion I feel when I say that I am suffering through this pattern. For example, pity or sympathy.”

“Ah~. Um~ I’m sure you can feel it, right?”

“Really? So you feel guilty?”

“…?”

She seemed to be thinking for a while, but then she seemed to understand the meaning of my words.

“Ah~.”

Yes. It’s something you used on me when I was in middle school, b*tch.

“You understand now? Your mouth said that I was pitiful. How is it, do you think you can sympathize? Are you sorry?”

You are caught in a trap, that is to say.

After I finished speaking, I was smiling without knowing it.

Tears still cover my eyes when I think of the hardships I had with a man with an unrequited love.

Even if you deny it, who will believe it?

Have you ever received an apology from this guy…

However, it seems that sadness finally ends today. Finally today.

I’ll be able to repay him a little bit with an apology.

hehehe.

“I don’t know what you mean, Shujinkoo-kun.”

“…?”

But there was one fact I was overlooking.

She was a person who could be much more shameless than I expected.

“What..?”

“I don’t know what you mean, Shujinkoo-kun.”

“I’m sure you said ah earlier…”

“I don’t know what you mean, Shujinkoo-kun.”

“…”

Ha…

All right, just.

To be honest with her, I didn’t really expect her to make her apology.

I thought she would just pretend to be sorry…

I wish that this guy had a conscience, but rather, a twin-tailed gnome suddenly came to me, Mr. Shujinko! I like you! It would be much more realistic to hope to do so.

…I have no choice but to sincerely hope that he is reflecting on himself.

“Anyway, let’s get past that.”

“Yes, well thought out, Shujinkoo-kun.”

“…”

Suddenly, he tries to get mad again.

A deep breath… A deep breath…

“Sweep-huh… Continuing from earlier, to say again, there is one more reason besides the problem with the pattern that abstaining cannot succeed.”

“One more?”

Actually, this could be said to be the biggest culprit that cannot be escaped.

…Not grandiose. At the same time, it gives a solid reason.

“The Pretty Girls Information Society guys embroidered my name in the notebook with gold thread.”

“…Great, even those kids.”

“…”

***

The next day. Lunch hour.

“Chick Shoo!!!!! Envy!!!!!!”

“…”

I left the class with Kurutta’s screaming screams behind.

The destination is the library. It was to be forced to go in order to give Sasaki Yuuna a chance to repay her favor.

Yes. To give you a chance to repay the favor. Forcibly.

If someone I didn’t know had heard it, they would have asked what bullsh*t that was. But this was my reality now.

“Ha…”

She said she would go to the library first.

Let’s go quickly and finish that ridiculous grace repayment.

***

Library. Heebon Academy.

“Ah~ I see!”

“Oh, I understand!”

“Aha!”

“Wow, you really understand?”

“All right? Are you really happy?”

…I was immersed in acting in order to finish Sasaki Yuna’s ridiculous return of favor as quickly as possible.

‘Maximize her pride and end it as quickly as possible.’

In my opinion, this strategy was the fastest and surest way to end this situation.

For that strategy, I’m pretending to hear it for the first time, pretending to understand it right away thanks to the excellent explanation, and doing my best to act.

My acting must have been perfect, so she must have been satisfied…

“…”

“…Why are you staring at me like that..?”

“No.”

…I thought it was. She had a look of dissatisfaction.

…I feel anxious.

***

“…”

Seokkeol-Seokkeol-Seokkeol-

“…”

I was dissatisfied.

I don’t feel like I was taught, so I guess I couldn’t repay the favor.

So, see you again in three days.

“Ha…”

And.

Seokkeol-Seokkeol-

I was doing the homework she gave me.

The homework that threatened to be inspected in three days, that if everything was not done, the notebook would be skipped.

“…”

Of course, I didn’t simply say yes to this request and accept it.

In fact, she already knew everything you told her.

She said that she acted because she wanted to finish it quickly, and tried hard.

But her answer to my outrage was this.

“Then see you in three days. Enough.”

…I didn’t cut anything. That was just the answer.

“Ha…”

Took-

I put down the pen holder.

I leaned against the backrest and looked at the ceiling.

“……”

I thought.

Sometimes homework, he wants to get rid of it.

Only the amount is too much.

“…”

And then I made up my mind.

“…Yeah. Little bit. Let’s do it.”

To show it to her.

***

“…So. Are these the report cards from Shujinko’s middle school days?”

“Yes.”

‘Shows the report card.’

In fact, it was absolutely not that I hadn’t thought of this intuitive and sure plan before.

But I was just reluctant because it seemed like I was bragging about something and also felt like I would be embarrassed.

And now that the plan has been executed.

Yes, I was embarrassed as expected. It was embarrassing. Crazy too.

My hands and feet couldn’t shrivel, to the point where my internal organs were twisted.

It felt like watching the original anime.

If anyone in the world brings a report card from middle school, this is my grade! Did you mean that

“Ha…”

I guess I did it for no reason.

“…”

“…”

However, such embarrassment was short-lived.

“Hmm…”

Her silence lengthened, and as time passed, it gradually subsided and disappeared.

And.

I now have a bright future. So, the thought that this was over also started to make me feel better.

“Now, you know you don’t have to do that, right?”

An arc line that is naturally built around the mouth.

I had no doubt that she would tell me that sooner or later it would be her end.

“Ha…”

“?”

However, in front of me like that, the words that came out of her mouth were not the end, but a sigh.

I wondered if she was doing that because of her unexpected reaction and her apology.

However, her subsequent words completely missed my expectations.

I couldn’t help but panic.

“…Can I be honest with you?”

…?

From noble mtl dot com

“Honestly?”

“Yes. Mr. Shujinko. If you are going to manipulate it from now on, please do it properly.”

“…What?”

What kind of bullsh*t is that?

“Hah… Lying is acceptable only to a certain extent. Even if you think about it, this kind of manipulation is too much. Don’t you think I’m an idiot?

Even though I hated studying. …This is a bit disappointing. I thought you were a little different from other people.”

Saying that, she frowned.

A look of disappointment was evident on her face.

“…?”

No, what.

“I’ll start studying soon. I don’t have time. My time is precious. Please don’t make me more disappointed.”

“Ha…”

I’m going crazy, really.

Even with her words that she didn’t think she would do this well, the embarrassing added to it made it seem like she was going to go crazy even more.

“After…”

Feeling a complex madness that I don’t know what kind of emotion it is, including the madness that feels so ridiculous and embarrassing, she opens her mouth again.

“…If only.”

“?”

“In any case, if that report card of yours is real. And if you can prove it in this test. I will sincerely apologize. And I will do whatever you want.”

“…”

“Let’s start quickly.”

***

The operation I had in mind before turned into a failure for reasons that didn’t sound like words.

I started acting again.

In order to compactly settle this karma in the remaining time, about 40 minutes.

This time, the postponement was planned from the beginning instead of showing the report card,

It was so difficult that I pretended not to understand, and after a while, I listened to her explanation and pretended to barely understand.

And.

This has been quite successful.

Compared to the dissatisfied face she had three days ago, the girl in front of me had a very satisfied face.

Yeah, it was close to expressionless.

Fortunately, this seems to be over as of today.

“After…”

“…Thanks for your hard work. Certainly, compared to three days ago, it seems like I taught you a lot. Raising the difficulty seems to have worked.”

“Okay, thank you. Then, is this the end?”

“Yes, that’s it.”

I cheered inwardly at her words.

Then now is the time to take the most important thing.

“Then no…”

“Just.”

“…Only?”

Why did that word come out all of a sudden..?

“Honestly, I don’t feel like I’m lacking yet. I’m ending it here because Shujinko doesn’t seem to want it. If I need it, you can always ask for help again.”

“Ah… Really? Thank you.”

What, you were scared.

I have no intention of going, so I guess this is the end.

“Then, the notes…?”

“Yes, here.”

I took her note from her.

That note that has been bothering me for the past few days. It’s called the Pretty Girl’s Note.

“Big…”

Really… I was thrilled.

Finally. It is liberation at last!
