Chapter 15: Chapter 15: The Sullen And Gloomy Boy
Now that they had admitted to it, the proceedings became very easy.
And with such a clear video and audio of their folly available, they also had nothing to defend themselves with, as everything was visible on the evidence provided.
"So you have indeed said that class D students are defective products. It looks like I can't help you either. You are really an embarrassment to the class."
At first, Nagumo thought it was the president who was looking for trouble with him, but now it appeared that there was an interesting new entrant in the first year.
In this short period of time, Nagumo Miyabi was able to work out what had happened.
"Since this is the case, it should not be too difficult for President Horikita to deal with you. I have other things to do."
Nagumo didn't bother wasting his time on this matter and directly threw his classmates over to Horikita Manabu to handle as he saw fit.
"You've all heard what he just said. Since you've all admitted to it, you'll have to apologise to the students later. I will arrange for you to meet and apologise to the students in Class D. Hopefully the matter will pass with just that. If the matter spreads, you may have to go to their class and apologise to the whole class. In addition, we may have to report you for misconduct to the school and make an announcement to the whole school."
Horikita Manabu didn't pay much attention to the resentful expressions of the three of Nagumo Miyabi's classmates.
He just spoke about what should happen straightforwardly.
"..."
"We understand."
The boys' faces had turned ugly.
But they still agreed.
In this case, they had no choice but to agree.
Since Nagumo hadn't helped them, they would certainly not attain a good end result by clashing with the president of the student council so brazenly.
Now they just wanted to find out who the jerk who had reported them was.
They would absolutely not let him go.

The sun was slowly rising on the morning of the second day of school.
Ying Ye Zhenshi finished showering early and put on the school-distributed white shirt and wine-red suit jacket.
The shirt and jacket looked fine.
The jacket had a gold trim and two gold buttons, while the design appeared well thought out, and it was quite comfortable to wear.
But, for the life of him, he could not fathom which miserable designer had planned for students to wear green trousers as part of the uniform for this school.
If he was any more ruthless, he might as well have had the whole school wearing green hats. [T/N: Make them cucks.]
Obviously, the girls had the option of wearing a pleated white skirt, but that was not the case for the boys.
'The school uniform designer should apologise for this. He must be a dirty-minded old man.'
Dressed smartly, and holding the grip strengthener that he had just bought yesterday, Ying Ye Zhenshi left the dormitory with a bright and handsome bearing and started his true campus life.
"Morning, Ying Ye-san."
As soon as he arrived at class, Kikyo Kushida, who was talking to one of her new friends, turned to Ying Ye Zhenshi and greeted him with a smile.
One wouldn't have been able to tell whether her expectant look was just an illusion.
It was just a pity that Ying Ye Zhenshi failed to meet that expectation.
"Morning, Hanada-san."
Leaving her with a perfunctory reply, he made his way straight to his seat.
"That guy is too rude. That was definitely intentional. How is it possible that he can't even remember your name? No wonder there aren't that many people talking to him."
The girl beside Kushida Kikyo spoke and glared at Ying Ye Zhenshi.
Ying Ye Zhenshi heard everything she said but didn't care.
"Really, Ying Ye-san, I have already said that I am Kikyo Kushida. Is it that hard to remember my name?"
Kushida Kikyo was different from her friend and continued to relay that fact to him with a gentle tone.
"Okay, Kushida-san. I'll try to remember that for next time."
One couldn't have known that 'next time' had an expiration date of a few seconds, and Ying Ye Zhenshi himself was also clueless about how long it would last.
Obviously, he had only needed to miscall another person's name a few times in real life for them to stay away.
'This kid is too annoying. What a sticky, little elf.'
"It's like this again."
Kushida Kikyo looked on helplessly.
"I'm telling you, he must be trying to get your attention in this way."
"Yes, yes, little Kikyo, don't be fooled by him. That Ying Ye Zhenshi looks like a pretty sullen guy at first glance. Only his appearance gives off a very delicate and handsome vibe, but he barely speaks, and the feeling he gives off is gloomy. And he also appears to feel too good about himself."
Kushida Kikyo's friends pulled her back and spoke in a voice that Ying Ye Zhenshi would have been able to hear, belittling Ying Ye Zhenshi.
"Is that true? It's too much to say that he is a sullen man and gloomy."
Kushida Kikyo responded in a low tone.
She also glanced at Ying Ye Zhenshi with a shy look.
'Is it really for attention?'
"Little Kikyo, you are too likeable. You must stay away from people like him. That guy is a scumbag."
Then, several people went on to gossip some more about him.
Most of the other people in the class were also like them- already in friendship groups of threes and twos.
Obviously, many of them had had a good exchange yesterday and become friends.
Even Haruki Yamauchi had found some 'good' friends yesterday.
The gross boys had banded together.
Only a few of them sat alone like Ying Ye Zhenshi.
However, he didn't pay much attention to the isolation.
He already knew the rules of this school, and he knew that someone would soon break this illusion that his classmates were mired in.
By then, he didn't know how many catties and taels [T/N: CN Unit of measure] of their trashy friendships would remain.
Since it was just the first day of classes, most of their teachers only explained what the learning outcomes for the year were and gave some other small tidbits to do, but there were no strict church-like rules in place.
It could even be said that the teachers were very friendly- so friendly, in fact, that the students didn't think this to be that special of a school.
It was just like any other garbage school they would have gone to otherwise.
