Is it possible to work half-time at Advanced Nurturing High School?

When Horikita left the classroom, and I finished my monologue, I realized that I was alone; alone and sitting on a chair inside the classroom while the rain that Kiyotaka prophesied was showing faintly. Slowly, drops from the sky covered the glass of the wide window.

My feeble resolve to survive has taken hold on several levels after interacting with him. I have a feeling he is planning something, and I do not want the blow to be too strong. I have been a hurricane that will cause new events shortly, so my knowledge of the near future will not be very helpful in coordinating anything against him. However, if I can steer the circumstances in my favor.

I will imitate the prokaryotic cell: I will reproduce (expand my new family) effectively with a very simple biological structure, until I evolve into a complex eukaryotic cell. What is that process called? It has got a long name, I have never applied it, but this is a propitious opportunity.

"You said you wanted to meet someone alone, but I don't see anyone"

"Your date was with an imaginary friend?"

Lonesome-kun and Stalker-kun suddenly appeared, and interrupted my meditations. I told them at the beginning of the break to have a snack without me because I'd be busy with personal business.

The classes are long and I'm hungry. But I don't want to go to the cafeteria. Kiyotaka is probably there, and if he sees me, his lie will be exposed.

Like in the novel, he's gathering with Sudou and his gang. I don't mind, but it makes me wonder what's different from the novel so far, besides his hatred for me. I have witnessed some of his conversations with Horikita, I have been aware of his behavior in the classroom, and there is nothing out of the ordinary.

Maybe we met at one of the meetings before school and I didn't notice...

My stomach did some funny sounds.

"Ah! We forgot to bring you food," Stalker-kun said.

"I want to eat something different from the school menu"

"Like what?"

"Something different, then we'll walk until I find something that satisfies my eyes"

"That's very selfish of you," Lonesome Kun told me in a serious tone.

I laughed out loud, "It looks like it, but after I share it with you, you won't think that way."

"Are you going to invite us Aniki?"

"I'll invite you both."

"You just ate Sotomura..."

Acosador-kin was surprised. She had actually eaten a few minutes ago.

"My portion was too small!"

With that statement in the air, we left the school building and walked through some stalls on the first floor of the Keyaki mall. Needless to say, like any other mall, each floor represents a social stratum. If you shop on the first floor you're usually someone with a few points, and if you visit the last one, you're probably class A.

On our walk, I saw a new place. We visited this place the first day, and that space was empty.

'Uchi's bakery'

"We'll eat here"

"We have a lot of points, shouldn't we go upstairs?"

"You haven't gone in, so how do you know it's better upstairs?"

"..."

I convinced them to come in even though they didn't have the heart to do it.

Visiting this place was a brilliant decision!

The smell is intoxicating and pleasant. In my past life... Some feelings of nostalgia are awakening inside me.

"Hello!"

"Welcome, you are the first customers! The first order will be free"

We were met by a very unexpected employee.

The second Lonesome-Kun!

"What?"

"Guys" His surprise was the same as ours.

"What are you doing here?"

"The first week was really boring, so when I saw they were opening a new store, I decided to help out and got this job. I get paid in points, isn't that great?"

I haven't seen a student work in any other establishment. It's not possible that Bread-kun is the only one who has had that idea over the years, but empirically he's the only one who has succeeded. Have you worked here for 12 published volumes and the author didn't tell us?

Maybe his plot doesn't matter. No. It seems important, but Kiyotaka-san didn't participate in it. You're a drawer of secrets Bread-kunand, if you're what I expect, I'll invite you to the family.

Luck seems to be on my side. I'm looking for people and they fall from the sky (Inner smile).

"It's obvious from the smell that they sell high quality products. In a few days they will need more employees, it would be a good idea to open three vacancies for us"

"I can't afford three more people"

Someone came out of a curtain that seems to separate the kitchen and the sales room. It was a young man who looked like us in age. His hair was dark and his eyes were kind. He doesn't look like someone dangerous.

"Are you the owner?" Solitaire-kun asked curiously.

"No. I'm an employee, but my position is manager."

"I wasn't planning on getting paid. If you don't want to pay us, it doesn't matter."

Bread-kun said he got hired by helping out at first, without pay. If the manager hired him after his help. Maybe he felt a moral debt to him, and wanted to pay it off.

He doesn't seem like a bad guy. Or so I thought...

"Oh, then I agree. Come first thing tomorrow morning."

"Thank you!"
