Chapter 2

After committing her little crime, the head girl hastened to retire to her desk in the front row without even looking at me. I, however, remained standing in awkward silence with the teacher, who heard every word of his student.

"Minus 3 points for you…" ─ I gave an assessment to the vile girl, looking at her back. ─ I think you should trust a strong and independent wife ... Girl. ─ I addressed the teacher so that now the headman could hear everything. ─ "From now on, we start a war."

There was another option to say to the teacher ─ "Well, who will you believe? Me or her?", And after that, to make the most innocent look, but I am not capable of such snot.

─ Well, you shouldn't ... It doesn't happen to anyone. ─ The teacher hastened to calm me down and urged me to take an empty seat.

One desk was at the very end of the classroom, but on the opposite side from the windows, which was a little sad. The second option, I did not even consider, because this place was in the front row, where you do not see anyone, but everyone can see you.

─ No, no, no ... It's too late to sit down. ─ An elderly teacher hurried to stop me, pointing to a desk in the front row.

I made an attempt to rectify the situation, slowly shaking my head from one side to the other, glancing sideways at my potential neighbor.

"We will bite each other ..." ─ An obvious thought flashed through my mind.

The headman saw my reaction perfectly, pursing her lips in displeasure. Its such a neighborhood, no more pleased.

─ A little later we will distribute everyone according to their numbers. ─ The man calmed me down, starting to nervously glance at the chatting class.

While he was distracted by us, something terrible was already happening in the back rows, accompanied by laughter and discussion of the students.

─ Answer "Yes" to the question: "Is it better to carry out the task using force or relying on the mind?" did you choose yourself or someone suggested? ─ Rico asked quietly as her enemy passed by.

That's exactly what I was trying to tell the teacher about.

"Again this useless test ..." ─ I thought, feeling a little shame.

Unable to endure the burning light in the eyes of the girl, who outwardly remained calm, I had to bent almost to her ear, and after a second of choosing the right words, say a small phrase.

─ It's not mine that one hip is larger than the other. ─ I whispered, instantly cooling the girl down.

The sparkle in the headman's eyes vanished, and his face flushed like a tomato.

Until the good-natured teacher began to make another remark addressed to us, I took my place and got everything I needed for the lesson.

Although the thickness of the headman's hips did not vary so much, even this trifle did not hide from my keen eye and experience in observation. Maybe in communication with the opposite sex, I did not feel at ease, but I could not be called taciturn.

Part of the lesson, we individually analyzed yesterday's testing, because as it turned out, this elderly man was not only a Japanese language teacher, but also our class teacher. His patient and condescending nature suited me perfectly, for which almost every student treated the teacher with deep respect.

In our class, surprisingly, there were twelve girls, half of whom, I considered more or less attractive, and some even pulled by 8 points out of 10. The guys were the overwhelming minority, namely twice.

─ Ayumi Mizuki ... ─ The teacher continued to read the tests, calling one by one.

─ Me. ─ There was a quiet answer, right behind me.

The elderly teacher did not immediately understand where the answer came from and looked sideways at me.

"Why are you looking at me?" ─ I thought with annoyance, but nevertheless pointed to myself over my shoulder without turning.

Oddly enough, for the first time I had to take a seat in the front row, in my entire life. I felt like I was in an open palm, which was very painful.

─ I see, I see ... ─ The teacher said, reading the test result without getting up from his seat. ─ You are determined to work hard in all subjects, but the priority is history and linguistics ...

"Everything that I do not like ... At once." ─ I noticed as the teacher continued to introduce my quiet classmate.

When the man finished, I could not stand it, turned back a little and looked at my neighbor.

The girl had childish features and a neat nose, but this type did not arouse much interest in me.

"Maybe tell her to get up right next time? No ... It will sound like a mockery of her height." ─ I was thinking about the advice while the girl blinked, not understanding why I was looking at her.

Intuitively, it seemed to me that her character was fake. She deliberately behaved very quietly and nourishly in order to look cute.

─ Rick Raijetsu ... ─ The teacher announced and immediately looked in my direction.

Although this was understandable, because I was practically sitting in front of him.

─ Teacher, don't waste time on my test. ─ I hurried to stop the teacher, trying not to look at the headman. ─ I have already read it in detail.

There was a small hope that Rico would not try to take revenge on me at this moment, but the girl had not yet had time to come to terms with my last move.

─ Good. This is all for your good. ─ The teacher reminded him, putting the form aside for the rest of the pages that he had already read.

After that, he proceeded to analyze the following tests.

Due to the incident with the headman, the teacher could focus his attention on me as a problem student. This will not bring big consequences, but then you should not be surprised if they call me to the blackboard more often, make comments and even leave me after lessons for additional lessons.

"I don't want to take extra classes…" ─ I thought sadly, putting my head on the desk.

Continuing to lie on the desk, I had to glance at the teacher to read his mood.

The headman, though she was silent, did not like this behavior.

"What does he allow himself, being right in front of the teacher?" ─ She was indignant, even throwing angry glances. ─ "Not only did he lie down on his desk, he also frowns, as if a thousand troubles were hanging over him ..."

─ Nakimura Tesei. ─ At that time a kind teacher read it out.

The guy, whose name was named, was now quietly talking to one of the attractive girls in our class, his back turned to the teacher. In addition, Nakimura, managed to lure other girls into conversation, and he did it so naturally and not forcedly that sometimes he even forgot himself and spoke far from in a low voice, as now.

─… I really liked the place. Almost every day I look there with my friends ... ─ The guy was praising some eatery or karaoke, without noticing the teacher's address. ─… we can stop by one of these days, if we wish.

His interlocutor, in a red T-shirt, was the only one in the class to break her school uniform. She already noticed that everyone looked sideways in their direction, deliberately was in no hurry to inform the inattentive guy.

─ Is this a type of date invitation? ─ The girl joked in response, without much interest.

─ Haha ... Believe me, if I wanted to ask you out on a date, I would have chosen a much better place ... ─ The guy didn't give up while the whole class was listening to him.

"And he is clearly from experience…" ─ I was a little jealous of my classmate's sociability, so I looked sideways in his direction, glancing at the headman along the way.

The girl almost lost me from priority, accusingly drilling eyes of the chatty guy.

Unlike me, who just lay on the desk and did not touch anyone, the guy blatantly violated the discipline of the class.

"She won't say a word to him." ─ I predicted right away, putting my elbow on the desk and resting my head on my hand while I watched my neighbor.

A second later, the girl just turned back and pretended to be reading something in a notebook.

"As expected." ─ I thought, continuing to look with an indifferent smile on my lips.

Although I had problems with linguistics, the psychology of people was given much easier. The girl understood that her appointment did not yet provide great opportunities. Moreover, a public reproach of a guy like this ladies' man will only lead to a deterioration in the attitude of classmates, and she has not yet secured the support of teachers. It took the elder time for the rest of the students to start reckoning with her.

─ Nakimura Tesei. ─ The teacher repeated, but louder this time.

"…? !!" ─ Rico was silently surprised, finally noticing my look and smirk.

─ Old man, can you skip my test? ─ The guy came to his senses, but he turned only halfway. ─ It is useless to me.

Most likely, Tsei was still going to end his conversation with a classmate, which was now more important for him.

Even I stopped smiling from such an answer.

─ Boy, you weren't taught ... Respect for elders? (Respect elders) ─ I asked in an indifferent tone, continuing to support my head with my hand.

In fact, halfway through the sentence, I came to my senses that I didn't know how "Respect Elders" would be in Japanese. So I had to improvise quickly until there was an awkward pause.
