Chapitre 32: Sports fest: Dawning
"Kinoshita says you knocked her over on purpose," Ryuen said.
"Don't be absurd!" Horikita exclaimed, but Kinoshita mumbled, "When you knocked me over, you said, 'I will never let you win.'" Horikita's eyes widened as she bellowed, "You're lying."
Ryuen flipped over the blanket covering Kinoshita to show a completely swollen leg. "You think something like this happens on accident?" He snarled with a smirk. The argument got heated when Ryuen threatened to tell the school about this. That's when Kushida suggested a compromise.
"Give a million private points and maybe I'll let this go," Ryuen said with a wicked smile. Horikita's eyes widened as she was visibly taken aback.
"Don't give me that bullshit," a familiar voice spoke.
The four turned to the door with stiffened features as they saw Yuto scratching his long hair. Ryuen smirked as he said, "What do you mean? It's a reasonable price for dismissing this complaint." Yuto clicked his tongue as he spat while pointing at Kinoshita, "It's extremely illogical for Suzune to hurt herself to remove such a useless piece of the board."
"That's rude, Kazuki-kun!" Kushida bellowed as she glared at Yuto. "I was just stating it as I see it." Yuto shrugged as Horikita simply observed the situation. "Logic isn't always the answer," Ryuen said as he paused, "Kinoshita herself said that Suzune did this."
Yuto started whistling as he took out his phone from his pocket. Kushida thought, 'This is too familiar,' as she continued to look at Yuto.
That's when he began to play a video of Kinoshita getting her leg beaten by Class C goons. Kushida gritted her teeth for a second before putting her hands on her mouth and acting surprised. "That's horrible," she said.
"Was this the urgent matter you were talking about?" Horikita questioned, to which Yuto nodded. Ryuen clicked his tongue as he began to leave. "Where are you going?" Yuto asked in a disgusted tone.
"This plan is dead, and you can't report this since Kinoshita gave her consent to do this," Ryuen said in a slightly annoyed tone. Yuto smirked, "Then why is she shouting 'stop! it hurts!' in the video? If I present it to the student council now, I can play it off as you threatening her to say that." Horikita intervened, "You are going to be expelled, Ryuen!"
Yuto looked at her with a 'Are you high?' face as Ryuen also took a second to notice before he scoffed.
"Ryuen is not there in the video directly so we can't link him to what happened to Kinoshita," Yuto said in a deadpan tone, making Horikita feel incredibly stupid.
"However," Yuto paused as he looked at Ryuen. "There are six students in this video excluding the useless girl. One of them being Albert as well. I doubt expelling these six students will do your class any good." Ryuen narrowed his eyes as he asked, "How much do you want?"
Yuto innocently smiled as he tapped his head while musing openly, "Well... Since you asked Suzune for 1 million, I think it's only right for me to ask you for 2 million." He smirked. Ryuen's eyes widened for a second before he regained his composure, "Let's negotiate," he stated.
"The price just rose to 2.5 million," Yuto said with his hands in his pocket. Ryuen's face became grim as he hissed, "I'll pay the 2 million."
Yuto shook his head. "Nuh-uh, if you want to pay the price to go back to 2 million, then you owe me this." Ryuen turned around and he said, "Owe you wha-" He was cut off as he felt a rock-hard punch land on his cheek. Ryuen staggered a few steps as he placed his hand on his cheek and felt it swell a bit.
"That's for calling Suzune by her given name," Yuto said coldly as Ryuen clenched his jaw. Kushida's eyes grew wide as Horikita's expression froze. Kinoshita, who was watching the entire scene unfold, had a pale complexion as she saw her class leader in his pitiful state.
"I'll pay the 2 million but delete the video in front of me," Ryuen hissed, not wanting to escalate the situation. "Looks like we struck a deal," Yuto grinned.
Kushida, meanwhile, looked at Yuto with tightened lips.
'I need to expel him...'

Horikita, Kushida, and Yuto began walking back to the tents in dead silence. Horikita couldn't shake off the feeling of bewilderment after witnessing Yuto's bold confrontation with Ryuen. She knew there was more to him than met the eye.
"How did you know that was going to happen?" Horikita finally broke the silence, her gaze fixed on Yuto with curiosity.
"I'm just good at reading people, I guess," Yuto shrugged, his expression unreadable as he glanced at Kushida walking beside him. "But, Kazuki-kun, I didn't like it when you were being so mean to Kinoshita-san," she said with a slightly angered expression.
Yuto instantly furrowed his brows and spat, "That bitch deserves whatever I said and more for trying to pull something like that with Suzu. I don't care if it's orders or whatever."
Horikita was slightly shocked by how protective Yuto was of her. Kushida simply pouted and ran ahead. Yuto was helping Horikita walk so they stayed together. Yuto looked over at a few Class C goons as he said to Horikita, "After the sports fest, we are going to be in Class C."
Her eyes widened as she looked at Yuto with utter shock. "What do you mean?" Yuto's eyes were shadowed as he said in a straight tone, "We will overtake them in class points." Horikita raised a brow, "How are you so sure?"
Yuto abruptly stopped walking as he glanced at the huge scoreboard displaying Team Red and Team White's scores.
"I am going to crush Class C myself..."
