Misaka Sakayanagi Arisu, the daughter of the school's Chairman, also seems to be one of the two major bosses in Class A.

Although I haven't met Ichinose Honami many times, judging from the attitude of the Class B homeroom teacher towards her, she should be the current class representative of Class B.

Ah, they are all top-level figures in their grade who have nothing to do with him, this [ordinary person].

If Tera had to deal with a "Boss" level figure for just one lunch, he might as well go and mentor Horikita! At least she's not that smart or easily fooled, and he could use helping out as an excuse to enjoy a normal campus life without being discovered.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was on the verge of tears.

But the things that need to be done still need to be done.

So he quietly approached them from behind and carefully turned on his phone to record.

Dear friend, you'll have to treat me well again later.

Let's turn back the clock a little bit --

"Oh my, Ichinose, what are you up to, sneaking around here like that?"

On her way back to the classroom after lunch, Sakayanagi Arisu saw a suspicious-looking angel.

Ichinose Honami, with her long, rose-gold hair reaching her waist, leaned against the wall at the corner of the intersection, glancing occasionally toward the other side of the corner, looking very much like a policewoman on surveillance duty.

Hearing this voice that often argued with her, Ichinose Honami was startled.

She turned her head and immediately reacted to the other person's question.

"Classmate Sakayanagi, there really is nothing between Hoshino-kun and me. That day was truly a misunderstanding!"

Sakayanagi Arisu: "..."

I'm not asking him about it now.

Furthermore, saying that only makes people more suspicious.

"I didn't ask about Hoshino-kun. I asked what you're doing right now, like you're stalking someone."

She slowly moved to Ichinose Honami's side and looked in the direction she had been looking—she saw Ichinose Honami's little follower, Shiranami Chihiro, walking excitedly in a certain direction.

Her face wore an indescribable smile, and she walked with an excited, bouncy gait, as if she had encountered some good thing.

"That's... Shiranami? He seems quite happy."

"Yes, this is the first time I've ever seen Chihiro-chan so excited."

Ichinose Honami poked her head out from above Sakayanagi Arisu and looked at her best friend together, saying something.

"I suspect she's in a relationship, and with a classmate from another class, most likely from Class D."

Why do you think that?

"Because Chihiro-chan is very innocent, and she always seems insecure. The only thing that could make her show such an unusual expression is probably being in love!!"

"Just like you Classmate Sakayanagi-- "

Ichinose Honami looked down at her.

"You're usually so kind and friendly, but once you're with Hoshino-kun, you're like a completely different person. You only focus your attention on him and even try to lead him in strange directions; but with everyone else, you're just sharp and thorny, like a hedgehog."

Sakayanagi Arisu, who was used as an example, choked.

Thank you, but I'm reflecting on it now, so could you please stop tagging me?

First Semester of First Year:

Chapter 72, Chapter 67: You know, feet don't taste good, unless they're chicken feet.

After a moment's thought, Sakayanagi Arisu figured out why Ichinose Honami Shiranami Chihiro was a classmate from Class D.

Class C has become antagonistic towards Classes A and B due to Ryuji's orders, and Shiranami Chihiro harbors a natural dislike for them; if it were an insider from Class B, there's no reason for Shiranami Chihiro to reveal it now; and Class A, under Katsuragi's leadership, has adopted a policy of isolation and vigilance towards other classes...

No matter how you look at it, it seems that only the people of Class D could have stolen the planet that Ichinose Honami of Class B, carried with her.

"By the way, weren't Kamuro and Hoshino-kun with you today?"

At this moment, Ichinose Honami noticed that Sakayanagi Arisu seemed to be in a quiet place. Masumi Kamuro, who had always been following Kamuro Masumi her, and Hoshino En, who had been paying special attention to her, were both absent. It was unusual for her to be acting alone.

"They're not my servants, why should they keep fawning over me?"

Sakayanagi Arisu suddenly felt that the stereotype she had left on those around her might be a bit too strong. Was she the kind of person who particularly liked to boss others around?

Hoshino-kun is probably heading back to the classroom with Ayanokoji-kun right now; and Kamuro, she asked him to practice taking photos whenever he has time, so he's probably taking pictures right now.

But she really did give Kamuro a day off today, it's true!

Kamuro Masumi was practicing taking photos at the same spot as yesterday (above the Special Building), was very annoyed.

Because they were really worried/bored, Ichinose Honami and Sakayanagi Arisu followed Shiranami Chihiro and followed her to the Special Building.

"Special Building? I see. There aren't many surveillance cameras here; it's indeed a great place for a rendezvous."

Sakayanagi Arisu spoke casually, her words seemingly intended to guide the conversation.

Ichinose Honami, who was completely focused on Shiranami Chihiro, fell into the trap without any warning—after hearing Sakayanagi Arisu's account, she became even more convinced of her own thoughts.

Chihiro-chan... she really is in love!

No, that child is so naive; she might have been lured into something. She has to go and see the person in person to help her vet the culprit.

"But this is broad daylight... is she really that excited?"

Seeing the other person running all the way, as if afraid of not catching up, Sakayanagi Arisu also became a little curious.

Judging from Ichinose's attitude, she's probably never seen Shiranami so enthusiastic before. Just who could excite Shiranami more than this radiant Archangel?

So, following the direction she excitedly ran in, Sakayanagi Arisu looked over.

"Hoshino -kun, ha... ha... I didn't keep you waiting long, did I, ha..."

It's Hoshino En.

The curiosity on Sakayanagi Arisu's face disappeared.

That's true. The other students in Class D are barely able to afford food right now, so they don't have time to flirt with girls from other classes.

Except for... this guy who doesn't have to worry about food and clothing and can do whatever he wants every day.

Although she had just resolved to re-examine her feelings for Hoshino En yesterday, seeing him flirting with other girls still filled Sakayanagi Arisu with intense anger and resentment.

Hoshino-kun, although we haven't explicitly discussed that aspect of our relationship, it's your prerogative to do whatever you want; even if you bring it up publicly like Shiina did, I won't be angry, really...

But... but... I still feel so uncomfortable. Search QQ group: ∠ bully※∫∮∮"bait± ̄○≮3` {Hmm!!

Annoyed! Displeased! Frustrated!

Seeing that Sakayanagi Arisu's face visibly darkened, Ichinose Honami a little flustered.

She explained immediately.

"Wait, Classmate Sakayanagi, there might be some misunderstanding. Chihiro-chan isn't the kind of girl who would steal someone else's boyfriend, Hoshino-kun isn't the kind of vulgar guy."

Although Hoshino-kun often does things that offend girls, he does them unconsciously and they are definitely not his intentions.

"Ichinose, are you sure your assessment of Shiranami- san is correct?"

Sakayanagi Arisu nodded her chin expressionlessly toward the two people outside.

"Look, they're all hugging each other, how could they possibly be innocent?"

Ichinose Honami turned her head and saw that her Chihiro-chan was smiling broadly as she clung to Hoshino-kun's arm, letting him help her to the bottom of a big tree, where she sat intimately on his coat.

Ahhhhh, Chihiro-chan, what are you doing?!

"Heh, I really underestimated Shiranami. I didn't expect that the biggest Stealing Cat wasn't Ichinose, but that guy who looked like a Little White Flower."

She was once again falsely accused of "cheating on men" by Sakayanagi Arisu, but Ichinose Honami was too preoccupied with clarifying her innocence to care about that now; she felt that Chihiro-chan was in even bigger trouble.

No, no, we can't let Chihiro-chan be burdened with this baseless... possibly borderline, charge.

"Classmate Sakayanagi, why don't we get a little closer and listen? Maybe there's a misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding could there be? I saw it with my own eyes, and you saw it too, didn't you?"

Despite saying this, Sakayanagi Arisu's body still earnestly leaned towards the direction where the two were outside, with the help of Ichinose Honami.

Fortunately, Hoshino En had disappeared somewhere, and their actions went unnoticed by anyone.

At this distance, they could clearly hear Shiranami Chihiro's soliloquy.

"Hoshino -kun is so kind, no wonder Honami-chan values him so much."

These words shattered what little trust Sakayanagi Arisu.

[Ichinose Honami values her highly] = [Hoshino En is very important] = [Hoshino En Yui is an important person to Ichinose Honami] = [Ichinose Honami likes Hoshino En] = [Ichinose Honami is an enemy]. The equation is instantly solved.

She looked up at Ichinose Honami, her emotionless eyes seeming to say—I will never trust you again!!

Ichinose Honami: "..."

Sister, I'm innocent!!

"Ichinose, you've actually misunderstood Hoshino-kun too."

Then, as if mocking or showing off, Sakayanagi Arisu suddenly said with a strange smile.

"Just yesterday, Hoshino-kun personally played with my feet, making them tickle, and he kissed them quite enthusiastically."

Upon hearing this, the Archangel was already deeply shocked by Shiranami Chihiro's performance, showed even greater astonishment, which was accompanied by a hint of fear and resistance.

Is Hoshino-kun actually that kind of person? Then what is the love he showed in front of me again and again?

Could it be that... he's no different from those lewd boys? They're all just lusting after girls' bodies?

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, who was eavesdropping, thought, "..."

Kiss... feet?

Isn't this the kind of behavior servants used to do when they were fawning over their masters? But Sakayanagi and Enishi clearly don't have that kind of relationship.

He searched his memory for relevant information and quickly found the most likely answer.

Honey... honey... could it be that [honey]?

He had studied at the [White Room] that close couples express affection through kissing, but what he heard during his studies were things like kissing on the lips, cheeks, foreheads, and necks...

But kissing feet... to be frank, this was the first time he'd ever heard of this kind of "intimacy."

He looked down at his feet, encased in shoes and socks.

The feet, part of the human locomotor system, are important organs for walking and are generally protected by both socks and shoes.

Because human activities produce a lot of water, some of this water is excreted as urine, and some is excreted through the body's sweat glands, including the feet. In other words, the human feet are a part that sweats frequently. Moreover, due to the influence of closed socks and shoes, bacteria and dirt inevitably accumulate on the feet, producing an indescribable odor.

How could Yuan actually bite into that kind of area? That's amazing.

Although he could do it twice if he wanted to, if he had a choice, he definitely wouldn't choose this place.

Yuan, who dared to take the initiative, was indeed much more capable than him.

First Semester of First Year:

Chapter 73, page 68, has appeared! It's the real one!!

Ichinose Honami's somber expression was clearly seen by Sakayanagi Arisu.

After all, not everyone can be as tolerant as her, able to accept that their partner has such a strange hobby. As Ichinose kind, honest, and rather traditional girl, Ichinose would definitely not be able to accept that Hoshino-kun has such a bizarre fetish.

That way, she won't have any more feelings for Hoshino-kun, she'll be completely out of the game, hahaha!!

Thinking of this, Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't suppress the smile that was about to rise on her face, and the depression she had felt earlier because of Shiranami Chihiro was completely swept away.

Oh no, I'm about to smile... No, no, Hoshino-kun said we can't open the champagne halfway through, not even if we've already won.

"Although Hoshino-kun couldn't help but kiss me while giving me a massage, I forgave him because the massage felt so good."

I can't laugh at this moment; I have to add a sentence to highlight her magnanimity and how she differs from other ordinary women.

Look at this, Ichinose, this is the difference between you and me!

Upon hearing this, Ichinose Honami moment, then asked her a question as if seeking confirmation.

"You're talking about... you wouldn't happen to be referring to that bet you made before, would you?"

"Yeah. After you ran away yesterday, Ichinose, we went back and had a good time. Hoshino-kun's technique was amazing."

"He even offered to massage your legs?"

"Yes, he even washed my feet himself!"
