The sudden candidness surprised everyone.
This is the room of classmate Horikita, but classmate Horikita also focused his attention on Ichinose.
In other words, space was given to her.
Then quietly listened to Ichinose speak.
"..." Oreki watched the development of the situation quietly. He already knew what happened from Ichinose's younger sister.
Ichinose stood in front of the desk in the dormitory, her expression was painful and sad.
She then told all about her poverty, single-parent family, the fact of the theft, her inner remorse, and the fact that she had been in isolation for half a year.
And just like her sad expression, as she reveals it, she will experience the sad past again, and her heart will be broken again.
The cause was my sister's birthday. My sister Kanade is also a very well-behaved child. She knew that her family was not rich, so she always endured it.
But girls of this age still have some things they want no matter how frugal they are.
Finally, she made a request, hoping to receive the same hairpin from her idol on her birthday.
The price is not very expensive, only 10,000 yen.
But for Ichinose's family, it's difficult.
In order to satisfy her daughter's request, the mother increased her working hours and ended up being hospitalized due to exhaustion.
Ichinose could only comfort her sister, but she kept crying. Her sister also knew the family's plight, but she couldn't hold back the tears.
This incident made my mother feel quite guilty and wanted to struggle out of the hospital.
So, at this time, Ichinose committed something.
She stole the hairpin her sister wanted from the store.
And this is why she calls herself a criminal.
And because of this, Ichinose closed himself in his room for half a year.
No one in the room spoke.
Or of course they didn't blame her, or they said that she closed herself off because she was too kind. Yes, it could be said that she was a poor girl, or that she didn't blame herself enough when she stole, or they could directly blame her for this incident whether she can continue to be the class representative.
But one thing is obvious to all. After entering this school, she did not harm anyone and is a kind angel.
No one can question this.
It's just that classmate Oreki knows, but sister Ichinose doesn't understand completely.
Because.
Ichinose What his sister told him that day was that Ichinose was caught red-handed stealing something and it became a black history.
And now, Ichinose was not arrested, but was dragged to the store by his mother, where he knelt down and begged for forgiveness. It was completely two levels of things, wasn't it?
As people grow up, they will be driven by various temptations and go astray.
Oreki did not reprimand this mother for what she did, or should not reprimand her at all. When she could not change the situation, if she saw Ichinose go astray like this, then Ichinose would destroy herself.
And even now, she is almost destroying herself. Once she chooses to drop out of school, she will face a life with a high probability of failure.
In the incident involving the rumors about classmate Horikita, Ichinose would be very sensitive about her absence, because after stealing, although she was forgiven by the shop owner, she closed herself off and was absent for half a year.
Therefore, this is the reason why she was assigned Class B.
During Ichinose's self-narration, everyone remained quiet.
And Kikyou Kushida finally came into contact with Ichinose's heart.
But...
It's a pity.
It was clear that Ichinose's past was filled with scandalous material, but Kikyou Kushida found that he would not lower his opinion of her.
No one can be absolutely perfect, but Ichinose's past has made her fuller.
Rather, even after knowing Ichinose's past, I have not lost my trust in her.
Because, Ichinose is also a human being.
If you are a human being and you have made a mistake, if you can get over it, why can't you stand up?
"I'm sorry." Honami said. "I'm such a bad person."
"..." Horikita Suzune."How should I say--"
"I have never experienced such a difficult life, but it is meaningless to talk about morality in the face of poverty." Suzune gave an opinion.
Hmm.
Hearing her voice, classmate Oreki glanced at classmate Horikita.
Now I understand a little bit why Attorney Horikita will be willing to litigate for the poor in the future.
"Thank you."
Ichinose is very good at communicating with people, but there are also things that he cannot reveal when he comes into contact with others.
That is to think about whether such a despicable self can really contact everyone?
And she herself was able to realize something. When she expressed what was in her heart, everything seemed to become easier.
Rather.
What was printed in Honami's mind was the conversation Old Principal had with her before entering this school.
[Honami, go to High School of Advanced Education. It is very unique there. For many students, it is a place where they can have a new life. Go there to start a new life.]
And Honami also came with the idea that he could start over.
"Then let's proceed with the follow-up processing. Regarding the matter of Ichinose being targeted this time." Because Ichinose's past has been obtained from Ichinose's younger sister, although there are some discrepancies, classmate Oreki did not waver.
Rather than punishing yourself for past mistakes.
He is a person who pays more attention to the follow-up solution.
The dark history of Honami cannot be disclosed at will.
Especially since she also acts as the bank and class representative in the class.
Once it is announced, it is easy to be questioned.
But just like now, if you are attacked as a weapon, then be honest with your classmates and ask for help.
Everyone will still support her.
Because the ones in her class are little angels.
At the same time.
Ichinose herself didn't hurt anyone when she came to the school. It would be better to say that many people got help from her.
But to not give people the chance to seize the blame for the crimes they committed in the past is actually a very excessive thing.
So.
If this happens, then Honami needs to be honest with her classmates, or even reveal her past to everyone.
Once the secrets of the past are revealed and known to everyone, they cannot be used as weapons.
This point is the solution of Horikita's Brother.
But.
There is no need to do this.
So.
Oreki said, "I invited two helpers."
It was almost accompanied by the voice of classmate Oreki.
Ding dong--
Horikita's dormitory was knocked at.
So Suzune went to open the door.
They are two familiar faces.
A girl with silver-white short hair who is so cute that I feel pity for her.
Then there is a very tall girl with long purple-red hair and a hairpin.
Sakayanagi Arisu and Masumi Kamuro.
Everyone also noticed that in addition to Sakayanagi Arisu, Kamuro also followed, carrying a notebook.
"This is really lively." Sakayanagi Arisu held his cane and said. "Ichinose is here too."
"Well...Classmate Sakayanagi." Ichinose greeted her.
"Borrow the table for a little while." Kamuro said to Horikita Suzune. After receiving the agreement, he opened the notebook he was carrying.
And everyone also discovered that Arisu Sakayanagi brought Kamuro here to play a video.
The location of the video is High School of Advanced Education, and it is the first grade shoe cabinet.
Everyone noticed.
Isn't this shoe cabinet the scene where all the first-year students received Ichinose with a huge amount of points, and then the note was Matoba in the report letter Sakayanagi Arisu?
It's just that the video mastered by Arisu Sakayanagi is from earlier.
Because the students haven't come to the shoe cabinet yet, no, someone is here.
At about 3:30, four students came to the shoe cabinet.
The four students all held a stack of A4 paper in their hands, and then put it into each student's shoe cabinet.
Since there are a total of 160 students in the first grade, there are also 160 shoe cabinets.
So even if there are 4 people, the workload is not low.
So.
The surveillance cameras definitely captured their appearance.
"Is this the person who submitted the complaint?"
"Then this video -" Ichinose reacted.
"I went to retrieve the surveillance at that time, and found four rats." Sakayanagi Arisu said. "After all, I am the party involved. I only spent a few points to obtain the teacher's consent and obtain the surveillance content."
Hmm.
Ichinose was also reminded of this.
But she didn't go.
"I suggest Ichinose that you also copy this video to the school." Sakayanagi Arisu said.
"Why do you say that?" Ichinose has no intention of hurting others.
"First." But Sakayanagi Arisu shook his head.
"Ichinose, since you have chosen to stay."
"Then you have to think about accumulating some points."
"You have a huge amount of points now, but I hope you'd better collect 20 million." Arisu Sakayanagi said.
Um.
In other words, after it was confirmed that Ichinose was staying... and then it was confirmed that Ichinose's character must be the same, Class B's classmates united, and then they wanted to protect everyone.
Then.
Confirm Class B Someone will definitely have an accident.
Then money is needed to save it. Other classes may be able to make a decision. After all, the value of 20 million and one classmate, if it is an ordinary classmate, will definitely not have this value.
But Class Ichinose class can't do it.
Probably no student is willing to sacrifice.
Then almost all the classmates are willing to pay to keep that classmate.
