Capítulo 156: Chapter 156 – What are you waiting for? Take photos!
"Huh? Huh! What's Yukio-san doing? Why isn't he running? Is he just walking?"
"I don't know, did something happen? Does Yukio-san have a stomachache?"
"Impossible, didn't you see the mischievous grin on Yukio-san's face? That smile scares me just looking at it. He must have a plan. Let's just wait and see!"
Yukio's class had immense confidence in Yukio. Initially, they were a bit surprised, but then their anticipation grew as they eagerly watched to see what their leader had in store.
Other classes had varied reactions.
From the third-year Class A, Horikita Manabu observed Yukio's casual attitude through his glasses: "Let's see, you crushed Nagumo with your schemes, but what can you do against him face-to-face?"
The second-year Class A, whose morale had been low throughout the sports festival, grew excited: "I told you, Nagumo would never lose to a first-year kid! Now he's far ahead! That first-year kid is definitely going to lose."
The second-year Class B, where Kiriyama rarely showed up, watched expectantly with his arms crossed.
In Sakayanagi's class, Sakayanagi observed the field with detached interest, saying nothing. Her subtle smile without showing teeth left those beside her, like Hashimoto and Kamuro, unsure if their "princess" had noticed something.
In Ichinose's class, they were more straightforwardly worried: "What's wrong with Yukio? He ran so fast in the three-legged race earlier, why is he not running now?"
In Horikita's class, most people were just preparing to laugh at Yukio. He usually kept them under control, and while they'd normally fear him, if there was a chance to laugh at him, they wouldn't miss it.
But a few, like Sakura, Karuizawa, and Kushida, remained silent, focusing their eyes on the boy's carefree face, intensely curious about what Yukio might do.
Nagumo, on the other hand, was extremely excited because there was no one matching his pace on either side of the track. It showed that he was entirely in the lead, pulling ahead by at least a body length.
Even Yukio, who had come over talking big, was far behind, completely unable to catch up. This made Nagumo, who had been under immense pressure all day, finally feel relaxed, his eyebrows raised high, wanting to sing in triumph.
But his strong psychological endurance prevented him from giving in to the urge to sing, knowing that singing while running could easily cause him to lose his breath.
What he needed to do now was maintain his lead. Stay ahead until the end! Beat Yukio!
With this in mind, Nagumo ran even more earnestly and vigorously, his steps swift like an arrow shot from a bow. He quickly reached the bread hanging from above.
Following the rules, with his hands behind his back, Nagumo jumped lightly, biting into the bread package hanging two meters high.
He just had to pull down with the force of gravity to tear the bread from the rope, then run to the finish line to win!
Nagumo's eyes were full of intensity, his spirit surging with the thought of defeating Yukio and turning the tide after a day of setbacks.
He felt like an ancient warrior, standing alone, who, despite all the tricks and schemes from his enemies, could rely on his strength to carve a path to success.
'Yukio, you're going to lose!'
Thinking this, Nagumo bit down hard and pulled...
However, the bread didn't move; the rope didn't snap.
Nagumo was stunned for a moment, then tried again with more force, biting hard, using his neck to pull, but the bread stayed firmly in place, completely immovable.
Damn it! Who tied this rope? Why make it so sturdy?
Also, which brand of bread was this? Why make the packaging so strong? Nagumo was already mentally cursing the rope-tying team and the packaging factory.
The others all caught up, grabbing bread and running to the finish line. They couldn't help but wonder what Nagumo was doing. He was in the lead, but couldn't pull down the bread? Was he waiting for Yukio?
Wow, was Nagumo that confident? Was he really waiting for Yukio to catch up to have a fair fight?
But even if Nagumo wanted a fair fight, why hang from the bread like that? Isn't that embarrassing?
Since the race was still on, the others couldn't think too much about it; they just kept running.
Who cared if Nagumo wanted to compete with Yukio? If he was stuck, they wouldn't hold back from taking the lead.
Then, there was a flurry of camera shutter sounds.
Nagumo was shocked and turned his head slightly. From the corner of his eye, he saw that Yukio hadn't even jumped!
He was walking slowly, pulling out his phone, taking pictures from all angles, circling around Nagumo, capturing the entire scene!
Taking pictures of the esteemed student council vice president, the second-year Class A leader, hanging from a piece of bread, unable to get down.
"Hahaha~" Yukio laughed heartily, not caring about the race, letting the others run while he stayed back to take pictures: "Nagumo, you look pretty good when you run first."
"But you look really incredible hanging from a piece of bread, unable to pull it down."
"!" Nagumo's eyes turned red with rage. Now he understood—this was all Yukio's doing!
He remembered it all. No wonder Yukio dared to propose the bread-grabbing competition at the student council meeting; he was setting this up!
Whether it was letting him take the lead while Yukio strolled, or allowing others to win, Yukio didn't care. This competition...
Although he didn't know how Yukio did it, it was clear that he tampered with the bread packaging and the rope, all for the purpose of capturing his current embarrassing situation!
"Hahaha!" Not only was Yukio laughing, but the audience from Yukio's class was also bursting with laughter, waves of amusement washing over the field.
"Yukio-san! Yukio-san is incredible! How—how did he come up with such a prank? It's absolutely brilliant!"
"Guys! What are you waiting for? This is a rare shot of the second-year Class A leader looking ridiculous! Start taking pictures! Take lots of pictures!"
"Don't hold back! Snap away! After you're done, I'll edit and photoshop them! Then we'll post them on the school forum for everyone to enjoy!"
Soon, members of Yukio's class were all pulling out their phones to take pictures. The sounds of shutters and various camera flashes almost drove Nagumo to madness.
The humiliation, far worse than the pool incident and having his class at the bottom of the sports festival, overwhelmed Nagumo.
Outside, Horikita Manabu was shocked, his glasses almost falling off. He never expected that Yukio would play such a trick when facing Nagumo head-on… This was too much.
Beside him, Tachibana was so frightened she couldn't watch: "Pre—President, this Yukio, he's—he's scarier than Nagumo!"
In the second-year Class A, everyone was utterly silent, each person feeling a burning shame. They regretted their earlier words—what did they mean when they said the first-year kid was going to lose? No matter who won, it was clear that Nagumo would ultimately be the loser!
In the second-year Class B, Kiriyama was covering her mouth, holding her stomach with one hand. Her peach-blossom eyes, usually charismatic and dominant, were on the verge of tears from laughing. This younger classmate was truly interesting!
"Pfft~" The elegant Sakayanagi finally couldn't hold back, laughing heartily, making Kamuro a bit taken aback, and Hashimoto shook his head, thinking he just hoped not to make an enemy of Yukio—this guy really knows how to mess with people's minds.
The students from Ichinose's class and Horikita's class laughed heartily. They were just watching the fun, and this was an amusing sight for anyone to see!
Kushida watched Yukio's reckless actions, feeling joy in her heart. She'd never noticed before, but when Yukio got malicious, he was really something else! Compared to him, her earlier three risky adventures seemed trivial, and she couldn't help but tighten her knees as if something was about to burst out.
Karuizawa's eyes were bright, her expression highly interested, but in reality, she was just focused on Yukio.
Sakura was unusually taking out her phone, secretly taking pictures. It wasn't strange for students from all three grades to join Yukio's class in capturing Nagumo's embarrassing moment.
The difference was that in Sakura's photos, only Yukio appeared.
