Trash Loli

After leaving the rooftop, U Amakusa called Majima.

The beer in his hands still needed to be dealt with.

He didn't know who had set this law, but U Amakusa felt it was entirely superfluous.

In his past life, some families would even tease their toddlers by letting them have a taste.

In truth, U Amakusa had wanted to spend more time with Kamuro; teasing her had seemingly become a source of amusement for him.

However, there would be plenty of time for that later.

Right now, there were more important things to do.

In U Amakusa's plan, Classmate Sakayanagi would become interested in him and reach out.

If things went as expected, Classmate Sakayanagi had already investigated the reason he had greeted the convenience store clerk.

That wasn't a difficult task.

Once the investigation was complete, the best time to make contact would be when U Amakusa handed the beer over to Majima.

Of course, the "best time" was nothing more than an excuse.

It was just that Classmate Sakayanagi was currently in urgent need of a tool, much like Kamuro in the original work.

He arrived at the meeting spot he had agreed upon with Majima, which was nothing more than the area beneath the dormitory building.

Standing beside Majima was a girl leaning on a cane, watching U Amakusa with a smile.

No matter who looked at this girl, their first impression would be that she was frail.

U Amakusa was no exception, yet he could never stop himself from noticing the girl's incredibly aggressive gaze.

"Yo, Majima, and Classmate Sakayanagi."

U Amakusa greeted them in a way that didn't sound like a greeting at all.

"Are you some kind of hoodlum?" Majima couldn't help but retort.

"Hello, Classmate Amakusa," Classmate Sakayanagi replied with a smile.

"What does it matter? Come on, take these."

As he spoke, he opened his bag and handed the beer inside to Majima.

"Classmate Amakusa, couldn't you have just had the shop owner deliver these properly?"

I knew you were up to no good, kid. It's a good thing I brought a bag myself.

Otherwise, how was I supposed to carry these five bottles?

And this detestable brat—he's the one asking for a favor, yet he made me pay for the beer with my own Private Points.

Don't you have over 20 million Private Points!

Of course, Majima wouldn't say any of this out loud.

He also understood that U Amakusa must have had his own reasons for wanting him to deliver them, even if he didn't know what those reasons were.

He was just annoyed that U Amakusa had made him pay for so much beer.

"Oh, Majima, I just wanted to properly thank you. Doesn't doing things personally make the gratitude feel more sincere?"

"...Don't bother next time."

Facing this ridiculous student, Majima felt his head starting to ache again.

It was just as well; whatever happened next was no longer his business. Majima silently prayed for Classmate Sakayanagi.

It was a good thing that Classmate Sakayanagi had noticed U Amakusa's uniqueness and wanted him to contribute to the class.

But he was afraid that something bad might happen...

Majima felt a sense of unease, his eyelid twitching uncontrollably.

"I have things to do, so I'll be going now. Classmate Amakusa, be mindful—Classmate Sakayanagi isn't in the best of health."

After tossing those words out, Majima left the scene as if fleeing.

"Truly impressive, Classmate Amakusa."

Classmate Sakayanagi's words did not surprise U Amakusa; when she appeared with Majima, he realized she had already finished her investigation.

"What do you mean, Classmate Sakayanagi? I'm just helping Majima buy some beer."

"Together with Kamuro?"

"That's right."

Classmate Sakayanagi took two steps forward, leaning on her cane, the smile on her face not fading in the slightest.

"Classmate Amakusa, you really know how to joke."

"Not at all, not at all."

"I have only one question, and I hope Classmate Amakusa will answer it truthfully."

With that, Classmate Sakayanagi stood her cane upright in front of her and pressed both hands onto the handle.

Although she wanted to look at U Amakusa while speaking, her height clearly did not permit it.

So she simply stood shoulder-to-shoulder with U Amakusa, gazing ahead of them both.

"Feel free to ask whatever you like. I am more than happy to answer Classmate Sakayanagi's questions; after all, Classmate Sakayanagi is the princess of our class."

Sakayanagi did not mind U Amakusa's teasing; it was merely a trick used to flirt with a young girl.

"Classmate Amakusa's preemptive layout was indeed brilliant, reasonably bringing beer out from the convenience store. But Classmate Amakusa, how did you know about Classmate Kamuro's actions and location? I don't believe your relationship with Classmate Kamuro is good enough for such things to be shared."

Even if such a thing had been shared, U Amakusa's actions would have been irrational. If he truly wanted to stop it, he wouldn't have let Kamuro take action in the first place. Furthermore, why did she happen to witness this scene herself? It was all far too coincidental.

Could it be possible that this was all just a performance? To pique her interest? Thinking of this possibility, Sakayanagi felt that her school life might just have a bit more amusement in store. Heh, man, you have successfully caught my attention.

In reality, the latter was purely Sakayanagi overthinking, though she had guessed correctly. She overthought the fact that Kamuro's theft was genuine, but she guessed correctly that U Amakusa did indeed want to catch her attention.

"Pure coincidence, pure coincidence. It was just Majima asking Kamuro to help me bring some beer in advance."

When in doubt, pass the buck. Majima, you better be ready to catch this.

"I see. Then I shall reserve my judgment for now."

Sakayanagi knew U Amakusa was spouting nonsense; she had already clarified things with Majima. Majima had absolutely never asked Kamuro to do such a thing in advance. Since U Amakusa was unwilling to answer, she did not intend to press further. After all, that would be beneath her dignity.

"To possess such talent yet wish to hide it—you are just like that person. I truly look forward to seeing what Classmate Amakusa's goal actually is."

Sakayanagi believed that regardless of the reason behind U Amakusa's actions today, he had already proven he possessed a modicum of talent. But that was all; Sakayanagi did not care, merely viewing U Amakusa as someone with a bit of talent who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth.

"Actually, it's nothing major. Just think of it in the simplest terms, Classmate Sakayanagi."

This was the truth from U Amakusa. It was merely for a wonderful school life, plus the desire to build a harem. The goal was just that simple.

"By the way, aren't you tired from standing for so long, Classmate Sakayanagi?"

"My body is not so weak as to reach that point."

"But wouldn't it be better to have a seat?"

"Classmate Amakusa, put away your little schemes. Your thoughts are impossible."

"Huh? What kind of bad intentions could a handsome guy like me possibly have?"

They were at the base of the dormitory building; if they wanted to find a seat, the only option was inside the building. Even if they found a spot to sit here, if others saw the two of them in such a place, rumors would inevitably arise. Go somewhere else? She wasn't sure if Sakayanagi had the stamina, and surely he wasn't expected to carry her? Sakayanagi's importance to Class A went without saying, especially with U Amakusa, a guy already surrounded by rumors.

"Classmate Amakusa, there is no need for more nonsense. To put it plainly, come work under me."

Sakayanagi did not intend to leave such talent for Katsuragi. However, as an appetizer before she truly flexed her muscles at this school, this would do nicely, so she would simply play around with him for a bit.

"Shall we have a contest first? I will make you lose until you are convinced."
