Chapter 86: -85- I'll give you that
"...!?"
Nanaya's sudden move shocked everyone in the student council office, causing them to stand up involuntarily.
Even Horikita Manabu and Chabashira Sae had a slight change in their expression, their eyes narrowing.
"Ishizaki!"
"Ishizaki!"
Komiya Kyogo and Kondo Reo quickly supported the kneeling Ishizaki Daichi.
"I-It hurts! It hurts so much!"
Ishizaki Daichi didn't have time to care about the two, kneeling on the ground, clutching the injured area, and uttering painful cries.
It was evident that Nanaya's recent action had caused serious pain to Ishizaki Daichi.
"You... you actually dare to attack!?" Sakagami Kazuma looked at Nanaya with some shock.
No one expected Nanaya to actually act.
And in front of the student council, no less.
"Nanaya, you..."
Even Akane Tachibana, amidst her astonishment, tightened her expression, preparing to say something.
However, before Akane could speak, Horikita Manabu reached out and stopped her.
In this situation, Nanaya's expression remained calm.
"Don't be nervous. This was just a little demonstration," Nanaya said quietly, looking at Ishizaki Daichi kneeling on the ground, his face pale from the pain.
"As you can see, I merely struck a specific part of his body, and he reacted like this."
"The human body is fragile in unexpected ways."
"Press on the carotid artery, and it can lead to cerebral ischemia."
"Cut the major artery, and it could result in fatal injuries."
"The human body has many such 'weak points.' With a certain degree of force, various symptoms can be induced, even stopping vital functions."
"If one fully understands the mysteries of the human body, even a slight touch can cause discomfort. By controlling the force and timing of the touch, considering nerve conduction, delaying the onset of 'discomfort' is also achievable."
With a cold and chilling tone, Nanaya looked down at Ishizaki Daichi, who was kneeling on the ground, clutching the injured area and sweating profusely, and calmly uttered these words.
"Of course, such strikes wouldn't leave any visible marks on the body. Even a forensic examination wouldn't find any evidence. At most, they would conclude something like 'accidentally struck a vital area.'"
In other words...
"If I really wanted to do something to these three because I didn't like them and wanted to improve relations with Kushida, I wouldn't need to leave such obvious injuries. Just a few touches like this would be enough to teach them a lesson."
Nanaya said with a sarcastic tone.
"Afterward, there would be no evidence of injury, and no abnormalities would be found, even if the person wanted to accuse me, there would be no way."
In other words, Nanaya's point was simple.
"Since there are methods like this that achieve the same goal without leaving any risks, why would I leave such obvious injuries as evidence against me?"
Nanaya Hori turned his gaze to Horikita Manabu.
"Or, does the student council president think I'm the kind of person who didn't consider the possibility of being accused afterward and impulsively acted out of emotion?"
With a somewhat mocking tone, Nanaya's words made Horikita Manabu frown, falling into thought.
At this moment, Kazuma Sakagami stepped forward.
"What does this prove?" Kazuma Sakagami retorted. "It still doesn't prove that you didn't lay hands on our students, does it?"
Indeed.
Even if Nanaya performed a splendid demonstration of human anatomy knowledge and technique, it still couldn't prove that he wouldn't harm others in such an obvious way.
"Perhaps you acted impulsively and attacked Ishizaki and the others, or maybe this was your strategy, intentionally leaving obvious injuries on Ishizaki and the others, then using this method afterward to prove that you might not have caused such injuries, to evade responsibility."
Seemingly angered by Nanaya's reckless actions, Kazuma Sakagami sneered.
"Thinking that you can prove your innocence like this is too naive."
Kazuma Sakagami retorted almost vindictively.
However...
"So you want substantial evidence?" Nanaya remained indifferent.
Nanaya remained indifferent as he spoke.
"Sure, I'll give you that."
His unusually straightforward statement made everyone present tense up.
"You... do you really have evidence?" Sakagami Kazuma asked, his confidence wavering as he looked at Nanaya's unchanged expression. He then pushed his glasses as if to cover up, pretending to analyze the situation calmly.
"The location where the incident occurred, the special educational building where you were at the time, doesn't have any cameras, and there were no witnesses. What evidence could you possibly produce?"
He got it wrong.
There were witnesses at the time.
However, even if that witness came forward to testify for Nanaya, there wouldn't be anyone who would believe her testimony.
Because the witness was from Class D.
Even if she came forward, her testimony would be seen as fabricating facts to exonerate Nanaya, and it wouldn't be convincing.
That's why Nanaya didn't consider finding the witness to testify for him.
Apart from that, Sakagami Kazuma got another thing wrong.
"The special educational building where the incident occurred indeed doesn't have cameras, and there's no footage of the situation. But what about outside the special educational building?"
Nanaya pointed this out.
"I've said before that I didn't injure these three. So, after I left, these three should have been uninjured when they came out of the special educational building."
If that's the case, after the three left the special educational building, the cameras along the way should have captured footage of them being uninjured.
That would be enough to prove Nanaya's innocence.
But...
"All the footage from the cameras that day has been checked by the school, and there's no footage of the three C-Class students coming out of the special educational building," Akane Tachibana revealed the bad news.
That's not surprising at all.
"I guess so," Nanaya said calmly. "With Ryuen's cunning, there's no way he would leave such a loophole, right?"
Although different from Nanaya, Ryuen Kakeru, as a dangerous and ruthless tyrant, would definitely pay attention to the location of the cameras on campus and attempt to do things in those gray areas.
It's more like, if it weren't for this, he wouldn't even qualify to play with Nanaya.
And the fact proved this point as well.
Because he knew there were no cameras in the special educational building, Ryuen Kakeru used that as the location for the incident and invited Nanaya there.
Ryuen Kakeru must have planned ahead and made sure the three wouldn't be caught by the cameras, leaving no evidence behind.
Unfortunately, Ryuen Kakeru overlooked one thing.
"It's not just cameras that can capture footage of the situation at the time."
Nanaya said so, taking out his phone.
