The First use of the Voice Recorder

I made my way towards the place where I had seen those two. I made sure not to encounter any teachers or staffs to avoid unnecessary trouble. Coincidentally, I brought my voice recorder today. It was a perfect time to use it.

I hid behind a wall and peeked.

My guess was correct. Those two dudes looked familiar. But I could only see Okabe Tadao, the one I got in a fight with. But I couldn't recognize the other guy. They were smoking tobacco.

I turned on the voice recorder and approached them.

"Wh-What the hell are you doing here?" Okabe screamed. He looked pretty shocked as he hid the cigarette behind him. "Aren't you supposed to be in class right now?"

"I have the same question. Aren't 'you' supposed to be in class now? Okabe Tadao?" I asked.

"Who are you to ask?" He yelled.

The person behind him looked very nervous and was dying to get out of this situation as soon as possible. He dropped his cigarette as soon as I walked in. It was lying near his shoes.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"W-we were just burning some leaves," The other person said nervously.

"Shut up Naoki" Okabe shouted with fear in his eyes.

I see. So, his name is Naoki.

"Then what's that thing near your shoes?" I asked.

As soon as I asked that, Okabe charged toward me. I barely dodged it and he ended up hitting the wall.

"It's alright, I won't tell anyone about this."

"Why should we trust you?" Okabe yelled as he grabs my collar.

I saw Naoki run past me straight to the school building. If he informs Arata Tetsuo and his other delinquent friends, I would be in serious trouble.

"If I inform the school about this and you get expelled, you'd definitely beat the soul out of me outside school right? Why'd I bring that disaster to myself?"

"Good point," Okabe let me go.

"So, how did you get these things to your hands? Isn't it illegal for a person who's under the age of 20 to buy tobacco in Japan?"

"There is a senior named Okura Daisuke who turned 20 last month. He supplies these kinds of stuff to us." Okabe said, "Why do you ask? Are you interested in these things?" He smirked.

"I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested. I wanna try out new things too." I said.

"Heh, I thought you were a good guy." Okabe smirked.

"The school allows drugs?"

"Nah, are you stupid or something? You see this wall? he throws them over this wall and we collect those from here."

"I see, who else smokes with you here?" I asked.

"Why do you ask?"

"Out of interest, nothing else."

"Too much interest is harmful Kaname. There is Kajiwara Togi, Uesugi Kohaku, Asato Kira and more. They don't really smoke in school. I felt kinda stressed today, so brought that Naoki dude with me so that we could take out whoever sees us together. It looks like he ran away, heh."

Now's the time.

"I see, thanks for the information," I said as I slowly pulled the voice recorder out of my pocket and waved it at him.

"You know what's this?" I clicked the button.

"WH-WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?" played the voice recorder.

"You damn piece of s-" He screamed as he tried to grab the voice recorder from my hands and fell right on me.

I couldn't keep my balance, so I fell too. The recorder slipped out of my hand and fell to the ground.

Okabe got up quickly and grabbed the voice recorder. I took my chance to run away.

"Don't dare to say anything about this to anyone. I'll kill you!" Okabe yelled.

I stayed outside the class till the bell rings. I was sweating and panting after what had just happened. If I got back to class in this state, Sakura-sensei would've suspected me. Because it was easy to say that I ran for a few moments just by looking at me and a person with a stomachache could never run like that.

I entered the classroom and sat on my seat

"Yo, are you alright, Kaname-kun?" Said Ishizaki.

"Yeah, I am alright right now."

"You sure took your time," laughed Ishizaki.

"Yeah. Anyway, I have to go now. I have some important things to do with Sakura-sensei." I said as I walked out of the classroom.

***

"What do you want?" Asked Sakura-sensei. She seemed kind of annoyed.

Sakura-sensei's room was on the first floor. There were also some other teachers in that room but they seemed to be very focused on their own work.

"Are you busy right now? I needed to talk to you about something."

"Go on."

I pulled my phone out of my pocket and put it on the table.

"Hmm, what is it?" She asked.

"There is some interest information in this phone," I said.

"Go straight to the point. I don't have enough time to waste on you."

I unlocked my and opened the voice recorder.

"Listen to this," I said.

The voice recorder plays, "Wh-What the hell are you doing here?"

Sakura-sensei continued to hear it, the other teachers also stopped to hear the record.

I actually used both the voice recorder and phone to record the voice. I did this so I'd get a chance to get away since there wasn't any way to escape that situation. I would've gotten beaten up. Also, now Okabe wouldn't suspect me much since he had got the voice recorder as he thinks that's the only proof.

I also managed to record the names perfectly so that they can easily identify the students in the record. This way, I actually caught several dudes who smoked, and they'd definitely be sent to the SCA for this reason.

When he tried to grab my voice recorder and fell on me, I dropped the voice recorder on purpose. Since his main headache was that thing, he went for it first. I took that chance to run away. But, I actually bought myself another problem. As soon as those dudes get out of the SCA, they'll try to seek revenge. Since fighting would be risky since it might send them to SCA again, they might try to do something different and dangerous. I've made myself a few enemies.

I continued thinking these types of thoughts in the room as my phone continued to play the recording.
