After escorting Airi to a certain distance, Ryunosuke let out a long breath.
"Forgive me, Sakura-san."
"About me taking advantage of you this time, I'll repay it later. Please forgive me, this is the last time."
Ryunosuke put his hands in his pockets and left from there. He intended to go to the supermarket to buy fruits to visit Kushida who was having a fever. After all, that girl got sick from being frightened by him, so he felt he should be a bit responsible.
Ryunosuke bought several bananas and oranges at the supermarket, the main reason being they were cheap...
While carrying two plastic bags containing the cheapest fruits, he headed to the girls' dormitory to visit Kushida. Upon arriving at her room floor, he knocked on the door softly. After a while, there was finally a response.
"Coming..." Her voice sounded very weak, clearly she was seriously ill.
The door soon opened. Kushida wore loose peach-pink pajamas. Because of her "large" size in the chest area, two buttons in the middle couldn't be buttoned, so her chest area was slightly open showing her smooth white skin.
However, Ryunosuke wasn't interested at all. He had seen beautiful women too often to the point of being almost immune. At this school, most female students had high-level looks. Whether it was Suzune, Hiyori, Honami, Arisu, Ai, or Masumi, none were inferior to Kushida Kikyo.
If not counting personality, they were far better than Kushida. Kushida's personality was too twisted; if he had to find a lover, Ryunosuke clearly wouldn't choose this type to avoid being stabbed in the back by his own person.
If really had to choose someone to date, the literary girl Shiina Hiyori or the expressionless girl Morishita Ai were far more suitable. Ryunosuke had already made the best dating rankings in his heart. And of course, there was no place for Kushida there.
Seeing him standing in front of her door, Kushida reflexively was about to close the door. However, Ryunosuke held the door frame with his foot, forcing the door to stay open.
Kushida gritted her teeth and added strength to close the door. That made Ryunosuke's big toe increasingly pinched and hurt until he grimaced. Because he couldn't stand it, he immediately shouted.
"Stop! Kushida, I came to visit you. Hurry and stop, my foot is about to break, break!"
◆━⊰✿✧✿⊱━◆
Several moments later...
Kushida let that man in with a face full of vigilance. The hostility on her face didn't decrease in the slightest. Because this man already knew all her secrets, she was too lazy to pretend to be an angel in front of him anymore.
Ryunosuke took off his shoes and massaged his foot that was swollen from being pinched, his face looking annoyed.
"I came with good intentions to visit you, is this how you treat me?"
Kushida scoffed. "Who do you think is the reason I got a fever? If it wasn't because of you yesterday..."
Her words stopped in her throat. She looked at him with a cold gaze full of hatred, even hinting at a murderous aura.
Ryunosuke looked at her calmly and let out a long breath.
"Calm down, I have no ill intentions toward you. As long as you obediently become a model student and 'little angel,' and don't interfere in class competition, I won't do anything to you."
"Heh~" Kushida crossed her arms in front of her chest with a contemptuous gaze. "Why should I listen to you? You're telling me not to interfere? I'll do it even more!"
Ryunosuke sighed. "In that case, don't blame me if I act roughly."
He suddenly stood up. Kushida reflexively stepped back and gave a warning.
"I'm warning you not to do anything funny. This is the girls' dormitory, I can scream! If people come, you also won't be safe!"
Ryunosuke didn't care. He instead walked toward Kushida's two spare uniforms hanging neatly on the wall. Because he didn't know which one contained his fingerprints, he pulled both at once.
Seeing that action, Kushida immediately knew what this man wanted to do. But as a girl, she couldn't win in strength against Ryunosuke, so she chose to scream for help.
When Kushida opened her mouth about to scream, Ryunosuke immediately pounced on her onto the bed. One hand covered her mouth, while the other arm pressed her neck.
Only then did Kushida feel real fear. She reflexively closed her legs, and her eyes began to tear up. She was very aware that if this man wanted to do something to her, she wouldn't be able to resist a man's strength.
She looked at him in despair. Ryunosuke only put his index finger in front of his lips signaling "shh," without doing anything lewd.
"You should be grateful I'm only interested in money."
Kushida was stunned, looking at him confused.
Ryunosuke released her, took both those uniforms, put them in his bag, and said without looking back.
"You're too careless, Kushida."
"Don't tell me you thought I really came to visit you? You hoped for too much, this is my real purpose. I used the visiting excuse so I could enter your room, so I could take the clothes containing my fingerprints. That way, you no longer have evidence to threaten me."
Ryunosuke tidied his clothes and prepared to leave, not caring about her at all.
Kushida covered her eyes with her hands, tears began flowing heavily. This was the first time in her life she was outsmarted by a man this brilliantly. That man didn't want her body or her money, his purpose was purely just to destroy evidence.
She was very aware, if not for the "visiting" reason, she would never have let this man in. This man had planned it from the beginning...
Kushida sobbed pitifully and finally cried loudly. Her crying full of frustration was clearly heard outside the door by Ryunosuke.
Ryunosuke sighed softly. "Forgive me, Kushida, this is the last time."
He shrugged and walked away indifferently. He didn't care about Kushida's pitiful crying.
What business was it of his? He didn't do anything immoral, so why should he care? Besides, crying occasionally is good for releasing stress.
Kushida must be tired of pretending to be a good person, so she needed emotional release. Consider it him doing charity by letting that girl cry. Ryunosuke didn't feel guilty at all.
He walked casually leaving the dormitory heading to the "holy land" called the library. There, a literary girl was waiting for him. He needed to communicate with that girl so there wouldn't be misunderstandings in the future.
After all, he had destroyed Class C quite badly. He didn't want his relationship with Hiyori ruined because of this. This was the first time he considered Hiyori as a friend—perhaps a special "female" friend.
Of course that was just Ryunosuke's one-sided thinking. He really wanted to try dating Hiyori. A girl as good as that he had only met for the first time, both in his previous life and now. Hiyori's personality was very suitable to his heart, until he didn't want to sever his relationship with her.
Of course, there was another small intention: he wanted to use Hiyori's help to publish his novel to make additional money... Yes, just a little intention, really just a little...
