"The mole in our class, do you have any leads?"
Totsuka Yahiko spoke up. If it weren't for that person, his first mission would have been completed perfectly!
"No, I'm not sure."
Katsuragi Kouhei shook his head. He really couldn't imagine who would betray the class, especially on the first day of school. It was just too bizarre.
Starting with this topic? Would they suspect her? But she hadn't done anything!
Hearing them suddenly bring up such a topic, Yamamura Miki couldn't help but freeze, then she grew nervous. Her downcast eyes lifted, cautiously looking at Shikime Natsu, who was sitting beside her.
"I already know who the traitor is, but I can't expose them right now."
Shikime Natsu's words made Totsuka Yahiko stand up abruptly, staring at him in astonishment.
"Why?"
"Totsuka, sit down. If we expose the traitor now, what do you think will happen to the class? Our points for next month might drop to zero."
Katsuragi Kouhei spoke. After hearing Shikime Natsu's words, he instantly understood his concerns.
"Exactly."
Shikime Natsu smiled and nodded, signaling for Totsuka Yahiko to sit down and lower his voice. Was this guy afraid people wouldn't notice them?
"But what if that traitor keeps obstructing us in the future?"
Totsuka Yahiko was obedient enough to lower his voice, his face filled with anger.
"Don't worry. As long as I can beat her once, she's promised not to cause us trouble for a year."
Shikime Natsu wasn't concerned at all. He picked up a chicken leg from his bowl. It tasted good, just as expected from the deluxe set meal.
"Only a year? That person is too much."
Totsuka Yahiko complained.
"Leader, what are the chances you can defeat that traitor?"
Hashimoto Masayoshi asked. He hadn't even betrayed anyone yet, so how could someone beat him to it?
"Hmm... if I have to say, it's a hundred percent."
Shikime Natsu stroked his chin.
So amazing.....
Yamamura Miki looked at Shikime Natsu's confident expression, a flash of imperceptible envy in her eyes. If only she could be like him.
She hated herself for being this way.
"A hundred percent? Are you really that good?"
Totsuka Yahiko was also full of disbelief.
"Is there anything we can do to help?"
Katsuragi Kouhei asked in a deep voice. Since Shikime Natsu was confident he could win, there was no need for them to worry unnecessarily. They just needed to do what they could.
"No, just maintain the status quo. We don't have much information on hand right now. Besides, this is high school life. There's no way to enjoy our youth if we're planning operations all day."
Shikime Natsu shook his head.
"Then we'll leave everything to you, leader."
Hashimoto Masayoshi turned his attention back to his bowl.
Huh? Why did everyone suddenly go quiet?
Yamamura Miki couldn't help but get nervous again. Was it because she was here?
"Yamamura-san, is the food not to your liking?"
Shikime Natsu's gaze fell on Yamamura Miki. From the beginning, this girl had just been listening to them chat, barely touching her chopsticks.
Well, if he let her eat bread here, they'd probably be done before she even finished.
"N-No, it's not that!"
Yamamura Miki blushed and quickly buried her head to deal with the ramen in her bowl. Oh no, she was causing trouble for others again.
"It's okay, don't rush. There's still some time before class. Eating too fast isn't good for digestion."
Shikime Natsu couldn't help but smile as he watched Yamamura Miki's frantic efforts.
"Okay, I-I understand."
Yamamura Miki spoke again. Although she often felt that people's eyes wouldn't fall on her, now she felt like everyone was looking at her, which made her extremely anxious!
It seemed it would take some time for Yamamura Miki to adapt, so Shikime Natsu didn't push her too much.
"There's an information session for sports clubs this afternoon. Are any of you planning to join a club?"
Shikime Natsu brought up a new topic. Club activities were a fairly basic part of school life.
"I'm not very interested in club activities."
Totsuka Yahiko shook his head. He had never intended to participate in such troublesome things.
"Me neither. If I join a club, my free time will definitely be reduced, right? It'll be troublesome to help the leader then."
Hashimoto Masayoshi also lacked interest.
"As for me, I plan to join the Student Council."
Unlike the other two, Katsuragi Kouhei had a very clear goal.
"The Student Council? That's a pretty good decision."
Shikime Natsu nodded slightly. If he joined the Student Council, he would probably be able to get a lot of useful information.
"What about you, Yamamura-san? Are you planning to join any clubs?"
"Huh? I-I don't want to join any clubs."
Hearing Shikime Natsu speak to her, Yamamura Miki quickly responded.
"It seems only you are interested, Katsuragi. However... I hope someone can join a club to see if there are any secrets within them."
Shikime Natsu said directly, tossing out the prospect of information as a lure.
"In that case, I'll join a club!"
Hearing Shikime Natsu say this, Totsuka Yahiko quickly volunteered.
"Then I'll be counting on you. Just join a club you like."
Shikime Natsu said. He didn't know anything about this school's clubs either.
"Shikime-san, aren't you going to the club information session this afternoon?"
Totsuka Yahiko was a little confused. He thought Shikime Natsu would also attend in the afternoon and then assign him to a specific club.
"Yeah, I have an appointment with someone this afternoon."
Shikime Natsu nodded.
"As for who, you don't need to know for now."
His mysteriousness made the others a little curious. Most of them guessed it was Kamuro Masumi. After all, they had only just started school, and the two were already talking. They might have even started dating.
No, maybe not yet. After all, when Shikime Natsu invited Kamuro Masumi earlier, her attitude didn't seem very friendly.
"Oh, okay."
Totsuka Yahiko nodded and didn't press further.
"Alright, since we've finished eating, we should head back."
Shikime Natsu noticed Yamamura Miki put down her utensils and then spoke slowly.
"Okay."
The others nodded and followed.
"Did I make things difficult for you?"
Shikime Natsu's gaze fell on Yamamura Miki, who was walking beside him.
"N-No, not at all. In fact, thank you so much for letting me join your conversation."
Yamamura Miki quickly shook her head.
"Next time, let's invite Masumi too. If it's just girls, there should be more to talk about."
Just now, Yamamura Miki had basically only listened, so Shikime Natsu thought it might be better if Kamuro Masumi were there.
"Mm..."
Yamamura Miki nodded lightly, the corners of her mouth turning up slightly. It seemed... she was a little happy?
