Sending the Evil Clerk to Prison

"Everyone has different pursuits in life, so why force your own on others?"

Xia Mu shook his head and stepped off the rooftop.

His footsteps echoed in the stairwell, much like the heart of Suzune Horikita at this moment, wavering and uncertain.

She hadn't expected that instead of lecturing Xia Mu during this meeting, she would be the one being lectured.

That's right, not everyone wanted to be promoted to Class A.

For most students in Class D, wouldn't it be enough to just spend these three years safely and happily?

However, no matter what Xia Mu said, she was still determined to reach Class A!

This was the only chance she had to prove herself to her brother!

Sooner or later, she would make Xia Mu help her willingly, no matter what it took!!

Leaving the rooftop, Xia Mu checked his phone and found an unread message.

It was from Sakura.

[Xia Mu-kun, I accidentally fell, and my camera broke...]

Seeing this, Xia Mu narrowed his eyes.

What did this mean?

A fixed event? Even if the root cause of the damage to Sakura's camera had been avoided, it would still break for some other reason.

[It's okay, I'll go with you to get it fixed this weekend.]

He had worked so hard to get Sakura's Correction value up to eighty percent; he couldn't let that shop clerk ruin it.

Xia Mu didn't know if anyone would be there to save Sakura this time without the interference of Ayanokouji and the others.

Therefore, he had to go with her; otherwise, if that incident really happened, he feared Sakura would never be able to move past it for the rest of her life.

After replying to the message, Xia Mu returned to his dormitory to change into sportswear and went to the track to accompany the fatty during his training.

His training was becoming increasingly vigorous; running five kilometers and even doing a hundred push-ups was perhaps not a difficult task for Xia Mu.

But the fatty of the past would have absolutely been unable to do it.

He was standing to the side watching the fatty train when, in the distance, a girl was pushed forward by her companions, walking slowly toward Xia Mu with a shy, blushing face.

That bashful expression, her moving face, and the heart-shaped envelope clutched in her hands.

All of this signaled that a confession was about to happen.

It was normal; for girls, a guy like him was quite likable, right?

"E-excuse me."

Sure enough, after the girl walked over, she handed the envelope to Xia Mu, extremely shy, "C-could you give this letter to your friend?"

Her gaze, moving and pitiful, was directed toward Zhu Xincheng, who was frantically doing aerobic exercise in the distance.

Huh?

Xia Mu froze in place.

What? It wasn't for him?

"Could you also pass on some words for me?" The girl's expression was soft and moving, making it impossible to refuse.

"I've seen all the hard work he's put in during this time."

"At first, we laughed at him for being so fat and trying to work out like everyone else, but I didn't expect him to actually stick with it."

"The way he works so hard is really cute!!"

After saying this, she shoved the envelope into Xia Mu's hand and ran away as if fleeing.

A breeze left behind carried a hint of a sweet peach fragrance.

Looking at the envelope in his hand, Xia Mu felt a dull ache in his heart.

He hadn't expected the fatty to be the first to receive a love letter.

Xia Mu was stunned.

Given the fatty's personality, if he gave this letter to him, he would definitely gloat and show off to him relentlessly.

Should he just throw it away?

Such a terrible thought couldn't help but arise in Xia Mu's mind.

But looking at the fatty's determined face, he still couldn't bring himself to do it.

"Sigh..."

A long sigh.

Sure enough, when the fatty finally received the love letter, his face nearly split from grinning so wide.

"Gahahaha, I never thought I, Zhu Xincheng, would have a day where I'd be confessed to!!"

"She asked me to go to the mall with her this weekend, this is great!"

"Little
