章節 178: The Girls Are Worried About Akira
Classroom 1-A, Teiko Junior High School.
The back seat by the window is empty.
If it was another student, no one would care whether that student came or not. But the person sitting on the chair is different. He is special in the hearts of some people, especially women.
That chair was Nakano Akira's seat.
The five girls in the room wondered why he hadn't come yet. After all, Akira is an honor student and never skips school.
As a seatmate, Shinju glanced several times at the empty seat next to her. And finally, she couldn't hold back her doubts any longer.
"A-Ano, Goto-san, do you know why Nakano-kun hasn't come yet?"
Goto Hitori, the table is right in front of Akira. Shinju also knew that girl, who was one of his childhood friends.
"Ah, s-sorry, I didn't know." Hitori spoke nervously.
Due to her anti-social personality, she is awkward talking to other people.
"It's fine, sorry for asking." Shinju smiled apologetically.
(Very large...)
Hitori looked at Shinju's chest and compared it to hers, feeling inferior.
"This is weird, usually Akira is here already. Do you know something, Miharu-san?"
"I don't know."
Ayase Miharu and Kirishima Shouko approached the empty table.
They had both known Akira since elementary school and knew he wasn't one to skip class without notice.
*🔊🔊🔊*
The bell rang, signaling the start of class.
The students sat down in their respective seats.
Not long after, class 1-A's homeroom teacher, Kiryu Yuzuki walked into the classroom.
Walking to the podium, she placed the timesheet on the desk and faced all the students.
"Before class starts, Sensei has some bad news to deliver."
Yuzuki didn't beat around the bush and broke the news.
"This morning, Nakano-kun was hit by a truck while on his way to school. According to his mother, he is undergoing surgery. For a while, he was unable to attend school."
"Eh, Nakano-san had an accident?"
"Is he all right?"
"You didn't hear Kiryu Sensei say Nakano had surgery? He must be seriously injured."
This news caused an uproar among the students in the classroom.
Akira is known to be kind and friendly to everyone, he has interpersonal relationships with everyone, and it can be said that there is no one who hates him among the students of Class 1-A.
Everyone was worried about his condition, especially his close friends.
"Sensei! How is Akira-cchi's condition now?"
Kise raised his hand and asked the question the other students wanted to know.
"Nakano-kun is still undergoing surgery until now, we wish him the best." Yuzuki said concerned.
"Sensei, I request permission to visit Akira."
Shouko raised her hand and volunteered.
"Me too." Miharu raised her hand.
"I also want to check on Aki-kun's condition."
The nickname makes Mika attract the attention of her classmates, especially Miharu, Shouko, Hitori, and Shinju.
Seeing how many students asked permission, Yuzuki refused them all.
"No way, it's still school time. Besides, if there are a lot of people leaving, it will disturb the hospital."
"Okay, let's start the lesson. We hope for recovery for Nakano-kun."
Then she checked the student attendance lists one by one.
As the class representative, Shouko never played on her cell phone when the teacher was teaching, this time she made an exception.
In a drawer, she discreetly turns on her cell phone and texts one of the quintuplet girls.
Shouko: 〔Yotsuba-san, how is Akira doing now? 〕
The text message did not get a reply right away, about 10 minutes later, she got a reply.
Yotsuba: 〔Eh, why is Shouko-chan matching Akira-chan's condition? Isn't he at school and studying? 〕
Yotsuba's response surprised Shouko, judging by her reaction, she seemed to have no idea of her little brother's condition.
Shouko: 〔Yotsuba-san didn't know Akira had an accident? 〕
Yotsuba: 〔WHAT!?〕
Shouko had no idea Yotsuba was causing a commotion in her classroom when she got the news.
Shouko: 〔It seems Yotsuba-san doesn't know yet, just now our homeroom teacher informed us that Akira couldn't go to school because he was hit by a trick this morning. According to Sensei, his condition is critical, and he is in surgery.〕
Yotsuba: 〔I didn't know about this, thank you very much, Shouko-chan, I will tell you after I confirm the truth of this news.〕
Shouko: 〔I'm waiting to hear from you.〕
...
Kurobara's High School Girl.
"Sensei, permission to go to the toilet."
After being scolded for making a fuss, Yotsuba asked her teacher for permission.
"Okay, you may go."
The teacher gave permission and continued the roll call.
Yotsuba left the classroom in a hurry.
Walking down the corridor, she called her mother, it didn't take long for the call to be connected.
"Hello, mom. Is it true that Akira-chan had an accident?" Yotsuba asked nervously, she had even forgotten her little brother wasn't an ordinary human.
"That's right." Rena's voice sounded worried.
"Why did you keep it a secret from us!"
Even a good girl like Yotsuba would be a little angry at being treated like this.
"You and the others are still at school, come to the hospital after school."
Then Rena told the location of the hospital where Akira was being treated.
There are several hospitals in Tokyo, but Akira is not taken to his father's hospital. After all, the police didn't know his family owned a hospital and took him to the nearest hospital from the accident site.
"En, I know."
Yotsuba bit her lower lip and ended the call.
Although a bit dim-witted, she is not a student who likes to cause trouble by skipping classes. But the situation was different, knowing that her little brother had been in an accident, she couldn't focus on studying.
"Sorry mom, I can't help feeling this anxiety."
Yotsuba made a decision, she told Akira's situation to her other sister via text message.
After finishing, she waited behind the school building.
Yotsuba didn't wait long, and Nino was the first to arrive.
"Hah Hah Hah… Yotsuba, is what you said true?"
Holding her knees, Nino gasped for breath from running so fast.
"En, I was told by Shouko-chan, who got the news from her homeroom teacher and mom has confirmed." Yotsuba nodded.
"Mom kept something important like this a secret from us, what was mom thinking!" Nino gritted her teeth.
"Mom doesn't want us to be distracted while studying."
"Studying is not important compared to Akira."
Nino disagrees with Yotsuba and is still upset about not knowing about this matter, whereas her little brother's childhood friend does.
"This time I agree with Nino, mom has gone too far."
Ichika came, beads of sweat visible on her forehead.
"The only ones left are Miku and Itsuki."
Nino stamped her feet on the ground and waited.
"Akira had an accident, how is he now?"
Itsuki stopped running and asked the same question as Nino.
"Unknown, Shouko-chan said Akira-chan is undergoing surgery."
Yotsuba shook her head and explained it as it was.
"Why is Miku taking so long!" Nino was getting impatient.
"I arrived... Hah Hah Hah..."
Among the quintuplets, Miku's physical fitness is the worst, besides that she doesn't like to exercise and likes to stay alone in her room. No wonder her stamina is so low.
"So why did Yotsuba gather us here."
As the older sister, Ichika takes on the role of representing the others.
"That's right, we should have gone straight to the hospital." Itsuki is worried about her little brother's safety.
"In order to leave school at this time, we need permission from the principal or Sensei. But mom doesn't want us to skip classes, I'm afraid mom has already told the other Sensei not to give us permission to leave."
Even though Yotsuba's IQ was the lowest among the quintuplets, that didn't mean she was completely dimwitted.
"It's just like mom would do."
Miku and the others agreed.
As a teacher, Rena has connections with teachers at Kurobara Girls' High School. Moreover, her husband is the director of the hospital, the teachers respect her very much even though she teaches at a different school.
"So what should we do? Climb the wall?" Nino suggested.
"Impossible, the wall is too high for us to cross." Itsuki went against the suggestion.
"Yotsuba gathers we're not just talking about this, right?" Ichika looked at the Yotsuba.
Compared to Nino, Yotsuba, and Itsuki who were worried about Akira's condition. Ichika and Miku are calmer, because both of them know their little brother won't get hurt just by being run over by a truck.
Yotsuba had actually witnessed the debate between Akira and Vali, but she had forgotten how strong her little brother was due to being too anxious.
"Follow me, I know a secret exit that I found by chance."
She led everyone into the bushes, and found a hole in the wall.
"It's too small." Nino complained.
"Don't complain, this hole can be passed as long as we crawl. I've tried it before."
In order to prove her words, Yotsuba knelt down and started crawling into the hole.
Seeing that it really was, Ichika and the others also took the same action.
In a situation like this, there was no time to be picky.
Then they stopped a taxi and headed to the hospital where Akira was being treated.
