NOVEL NEXT chapter 10
10. Can you recognize me?
10. Will you recognize me?
When I arrived at the class, the main character, Haruta Toyoda, found me and greeted me.
“Ah, Shujinko-kun, I see you again”
I accepted his greeting and introduced him to Kurutta next to me.
“This is Shōnen Kurutta. He’s a bit strange, but he’s not a bad kid.”
“Ah, it’s Shoonen-kun. Nice to meet you. Let’s get along well from now on.”
“Uh…Nice to meet you. You, but no way…Don’t you have a childhood friend..?”
At Kurutta’s sudden question, Toyoda did not panic and answered kindly.
“Huh? Ah, that’s right. See that girl with twin tails over there? Actually, she’s my childhood friend.”
“Yeah, as expected! Ksoo! Envy!”
“Ha ha ha…”
Toyo just laughs awkwardly.
…How on earth did they become close in the original work?
Kurutta guy, even if you look at it like that, in the original work, he was a supporting actor in the role of the main character’s best friend.
Due to the personality of the guy I know, he would have acted like he does now in the original work…
Well, that’s none of my concern. Wasn’t it because it worked somehow?
Anyway, just like in the original work, it would be an established fact that the two would become close to each other, so I wonder if the three of us, including myself, will be hanging out together in the future.
After such a simple conversation with greetings, Toyoda Haruta returned to his original position.
When he returned, his childhood friend sitting next to him. So, I could see Osana Najimi glancing at me and saying something annoyed to Haruta Toyoda, who was sitting next to me.
Toyoda was answering that with a shy smile.
I guess I seemed to hate that guy..?
Certainly, if he was doing that with the fact that he had run into and fell while running without looking ahead, thinking that there would be no such thing as a rare crazy b*tch, Kurutta sitting next to him
“Two beautiful girls are in my class! It’s super-lucky!
…As I was responding appropriately to this nonsensical story and listening to it, it wasn’t long before the homeroom teacher came in.
As expected. The homeroom teacher was the same person as in the original story.
You were set up as a beauty, maybe.
“Woo Hyo clothes! www”
Of course Kurutta was very happy to see her, she said.
As the homeroom teacher of Class 1-A, she has a bright and carefree personality, and from Class 1-A to Class 2-B a year later, she takes on the role of the homeroom teacher of the main class, in the original work, she is always just a ‘homeroom teacher’. She is pretty, whose name I don’t even know, but unusually, it can be said that she is not a heroine, but a character.
Perhaps you will know her name now.
Yes, there it is. It’s called ‘Ukemochi Akarusa’.
After introducing herself with her name written on her blackboard, she gave out school rules and home newsletters for a while, then said with a small smile.
“Today is the first day of admission, so everyone will introduce themselves! Now, from the front row by the window!”
In this way, the self-introduction time, a regular material to introduce the characters that appeared in the original work, began.
“It is…, Please take good care of me.”
“Eh… I’m Osana Najimi from Aifureta Middle School, please take good care of me for a year”
“I am also Haruta Toyoda from Aifureta Junior High School. I lack a lot, but please take good care of me in the future!”
After the self-introductions of Najimi Osana and Haruta Toyoda, who sat side by side like that, it wasn’t long before it was Sasaki Yuuna’s turn.
“This is Sasaki Yuna.”
Then she sits down again.
“Hey… Sasaki-chan, is that the end of her self-introduction?”
“Yes”
“Oh, I see… Then! Next person!”
As expected, the answer is very chic.
After her, many students’ turn passed, and Kurutta’s self-introduction time came back.
“I am Shujinkoo Haiseki, who came from Toi Junior High School, which is relatively far away, and has now moved nearby and lives about a 15-minute walk away. Please be kind to me.”
So I ended my self-introduction while receiving the burdensome gazes of the ClassMet, who had become particularly quiet on my turn, and the young gazes of the enemies whose cause I couldn’t figure out what the cause was.
Ah, why did you do that to me from earlier? That b*tch.
Huh…Yes, poor child. Yeah… Let’s understand. This can be happen.
After me, Shoonen Kurutta introduced himself.
“I’m Shoonen Kurutta! I’m from the same Tooi Junior High School as the handsome guy next to me! Please take good care of me in the future!”
Why am I eating you son of a b*tch?
***
Following us, some students have finished introducing themselves.
After that, due to the nature of the entrance ceremony, the teacher gave a simple announcement and the academy ended early, and I went to school with Kurutta.
In the meantime, Kurutta, who was constantly looking around to see if there were any beautiful girls, cheered when he found someone.
“Oh!
“I see…”
Morish*ta Sakura, who was looking around while receiving the stares of the male students near the front gate of the academy, noticed us, took a deep breath, and then she was coming this way.
And when she arrived in front of me, she took a deep breath again and started talking.
“Um, maybe… Remember me?”
“…? It’s Morish*ta Sakura.”
“Actually… Uh… Uh? You recognized it!”
When I recognized her right away, Morish*ta looked a little delighted and embarrassed.
And while I was having this conversation with Morish*ta, Kurutta’s face gradually turned into astonishment.
“Wait wait! Are you that Morish*ta Sakura? That Morish*ta Sakura from Toi Middle School?”
“Ugh, yes…”
“That ordinary girl Morish*ta Sakura is you?”
“…Yeah…”
She has a slightly wounded face.
And.
“????????????????”
After asking a question that made me question whether he even understood the concept of rudeness, Kurutta, who received an unexpected answer, made an expression of disbelief and his whole body froze.
Looks good, you son of a b*tch.
Leaving the frozen Kurutta behind, Morish*ta looked back at me and said.
“Um, by any chance… From Shujinko-kun’s point of view, I… I don’t think much has changed…?”
“I don’t think there’s been a big change in particular? Overall, it seems that the impression has changed a little.”
I don’t really know the intention of the question, and even though I said that I was pretty with lies, I decided to just answer honestly here.
“I see… In fact, people around me said that I changed a lot during the vacation… Besides, there were also people who said that I became so prettier that I couldn’t recognize them after I made up a little, so I asked just in case… Huh? Do it! I’ll go then!”
Morish*ta was talking to herself and then suddenly apologized as if she had said something wrong and quickly ran to the front door.
“Huh? Uh, goodbye.”
What is…?
When I came out of the auditorium, Kurutta, who had ridiculed me about how that beautiful girl was Morish*ta Sakura, started moving again after a long time had passed since she left.
And that guy
“N, did you really think Morish*ta Sakura would become a beautiful girl back in middle school?”
“How did you find out? Hey!”
“You’re a completely different person from Sakura Morish*ta, right? How did you find out?!”
You asked me with gibberish,
I just said to him, “Just..? Did I just say it honestly as it seemed?” I could only hear the answer.
After thinking about it for a while, Kurutta made me feel embarrassed by sincerely apologizing to me that day for something I thought was nothing special,
It’s a story I learned later, but from that day on, the guy blamed himself for himself and started training to develop his own eyesight, and eventually, at an earlier time than in the original work, he saw and matched the three sizes of women only with his eyes. He is said to have gained power.
He is also amazing in many ways.
***
The morning of the day after the entrance ceremony dawned.
I left the house early today as well, after getting ready for school.
The scenery of the April cherry blossoms from the front of the house was still beautiful,
That dreamy scenery of yesterday that continued from the front gate of the academy no longer exists, so it was a little sad even though it was comfortable to look ahead.
But even so, it was still beautiful with the scattering of cherry blossoms,
I walked slowly down that road and arrived at Van.
As I said before, I was advised to come to school as early as possible, so I arrived 30 minutes early to class, but
Contrary to the expectation that there would be few people in the class, there were more classmates than expected, probably because it was the beginning of the semester when everyone was excited, especially the first semester of the first year.
Among them was Sasaki Yuna. She is good at studying, but as far as I know she is just as diligent.
Well, even though there are so many out there today, within a few days it seems like more than half of them will be gone.
That’s how I am sitting in a suitable seat, unpacking my luggage, and opening a book to study in the morning.
Yellow hair tied up, gyaru fashion, face… I don’t remember, but a girl with makeup that seemed like she’d seen it somewhere, approached me and talked to me.
