Chapter 16 first quarter

Was killed, Shimada was killed.I was told this fact as soon as I arrived at school. If I hadn’t eaten the leftover meat from that young man on Tuesday for breakfast, I would have been so shocked that I would have fainted on the spot.I sat down on my seat and panted repeatedly, without attracting the attention of others.Severely blurred vision, not just because of malnutrition. It is said that the transfer student Ayaka Sugawa and Katori from the class who discovered the scene of Shimada's murder are gathered around the two of them like flies in a garbage dump.Even if I didn't want to hear it, the loud conversation still came to my ears intermittently, and I learned from it that Shimada was killed on the desk in the art room.

Shimada...I'm afraid no one in the class knows about my feelings for Shimada.He is indeed an ordinary and unremarkable person, with ordinary appearance, even below the average height, and with big glasses, he is obviously bullying Chizuru, but he is being bullied by others at the same time (however, he was also forced to participate) ).Shimada is such a person, a person of this level.However, there is no reason to like someone. Yes, no matter how bad Shimada is, I just like him. This is not sympathy or pity. I really like him. And yet... he was killed, actually killed.Someone must want to uproot all my happiness. This person has taken away my healthy diet and normal eyesight, but he is not satisfied. Does he want to take away other things?Damn, hate, enough is enough, save me, please save me, God.

Asking God for help... how tricky it is. This guy—this right half, is he still mocking me at this time?Really want to kill it more and more.The body of this right half of my body belongs to half of my body, and its thinking also belongs to the half of my thinking, so as long as my will is firm, this evil right half of my body will automatically disappear. Impossible, impossible.The right half of the body is smiling, and one day I will kill it. The tutor came in, and the gossip circle at the back of the classroom finally broke up. The tutor said that he would announce something that everyone should already know, that is, Shimada was killed.Speaking from the teacher's mouth, it made things more real, and it also made me more depressed. After all, Shimada's death has become a fact, and I almost cried.

Killed... Yes, Shimada was killed.Since it was killed, it means that someone killed him.But who actually killed Shimada?And for what reason?I don't understand.Shimada may have held a grudge against countless people, but he himself has done nothing to attract resentment because he doesn't have that kind of courage. During class, I couldn't concentrate more than usual. I didn't want to copy notes, and I didn't have the strength to open the textbook. I was like a scarecrow isolated in a field.What does the scarecrow that appears in The Wizard of Oz long for?I thought about it for a minute, but couldn't remember what it was?

No matter how non-existent a person is, he will still be noticed once he dies, but he is a low-ranking person after all.After the morning class ended, no one mentioned about Shimada anymore during the lunch break. This is what I expected, and I am very glad that this topic is over, because everyone is just joining in the fun and gossiping. But I can't rest easy, if Shimada's topic ends, I will definitely go back to the usual routine, and then I will start bullying Chizuru... "Hey, Chizuru." Akikawa, who was still standing in a large circle with Sukawa as the center, suddenly turned around.

"Ah." Qianhe responded to Qiu Chuan in a low voice: "Wh...what's the matter?" I couldn't see Qianhe's face, and I couldn't even speak to her, because I remembered the tragedy of yesterday, because I was sure that I was useless.Defiled face, defiled sailor suit, defiled heart, "That's what happened anyway." Even so, Chizuru still forced a smile, and she still smiled tremblingly yesterday. How can you laugh?I can't understand, that kind of despair has been going on for several years, but she... Could it be that she gave up?By the way, she also said something like giving up yesterday.I want to get back what she gave up for Qianhe, but I can't, I can only comfort her behind my back.Although Qianhe gratefully said that this is enough, but... But, my behavior is the weakest, only daring to show hypocrisy after the fact, very despicable behavior, I even feel self-loathing, but I can do nothing, nothing as.

Because——you hate Ganhe, you actually want to stand in the closest special seat to watch a good show, right? Shut up, no, absolutely not.It was Chizuru's mother who killed Dr. Kurasaka, but I don't get pleasure from watching the murderer's daughter being bullied. I don't have any hatred for Chizuru, absolutely nothing. "I said—" Akikawa's voice was disgusting: "You were the one who killed Shimada, right?" As soon as this sentence was finished, all eyes in the classroom focused on Qianzuru at the same time. "what?" "You were offended by the incident with the shoes yesterday, right? That's why you killed Shimada, right?"

"how is this possible--" "It's possible." Fujiki joined. "So, did Chizuru kill Shimada? That makes sense." "No... not—" "Then who did you say killed it? Shimada is not a person who will attract resentment, at least not in school." "But, it's not me..." Qianzuru desperately denied it with a weak voice. "Do you have evidence? Proof that you didn't do it." "Evidence, evidence, evidence is—" "Let's see." Yingjiang also left the big circle and started to attack Qianhe: "You can't produce any evidence at all. Sure enough, Qianhe is the murderer, this murderer!"

"Please don't do this." The angel's voice sounded solemnly. It was Su Chuan's voice, the whole class stopped moving, and the crowd surrounding Su Chuan seemed to be frozen.I too was petrified at this unexpected development. "Su, Su Chuan..." "It's not right." Su Chuan walked out of the crowd, staring at Fujiki and the others with sharp eyes, like the blade of a knife, making people dare not stare at him.Even I, who is not guilty (really?), will feel condemned by my conscience when I see the light of justice.It's unbelievable that Su Chuan-san can have such a look in his eyes. "Gu Chuan can't prove that she is not the murderer. Similarly, she has no evidence to confirm that she is the murderer, but you treat her as a criminal. This is simply planting." After finishing speaking, he looked at Fujiki with sharp eyes.

"How could it be, what kind of framing, that's—ah! It hurts!" Fujiki was at a loss for the unexpected attack, and looked down at the floor with his fierce eyes, like a schoolboy who was caught stealing. "It's just framing." Su Chuan continued to say in a calm voice: "You must have reasonable evidence before you can convict a criminal. Isn't this a common sense since ancient times?" "Ah, but, but—" "do you understand?" "Understood...understood." Fujiki couldn't hide his surprised and confused expression, and quickly lowered his head. "Yes, I'm sorry."

"Do you also understand?" followed by Ying Jiang and Qiu Chuan. "Ah... yes, I understand, I'm sorry." "Huh? Yes, I'm sorry..." I don't know if it was because Fujiki, who took the lead, apologized first, or because of pure fear, both of them immediately apologized and lowered their heads. Sukawa-san said in a low voice, it's okay, and his expression returned to his usual gentleness. This change in expression seemed to be a signal, and time began to flow again. The whole class woke up, except for Fujiki, Akikawa and Sakurae outside. That's amazing... I admire from the bottom of my heart. I thought she was just a typical beautiful young lady, but she has the ability to defeat those bullies in one fell swoop. Wow - it's so fierce, it's different from someone. It's really talkative, but it was indeed hit by the right half of the body.Just worrying about Chizuru can't help her, I added this point a long time ago, but what can I do if it's useless? My stomach was growling, luckily no one heard it, and really, the feeling of being hungry always comes without warning.That young man had already eaten all his meat this morning, and it was consumed so quickly. No matter how hungry he was for a long time, he should not eat too much on Tuesday. It was really a miscalculation. It would be great if he could be more self-controlled.However, there is no way to do that. If the stomach is empty for ten days, anyone will throw their reason into the sky.By the way, has the young man's body been found?I didn't subscribe to newspapers, and I seldom watched TV, so I didn't know. According to common sense, I should have been discovered. After school, I stopped by the art room, and there was a human wall in the corridor, and the door could not even be seen from the back.I got into the crowd and moved forward, focusing my blurred vision. The entrance of the art room was cordoned off by the police, and no entry was allowed. Looking inside from the opened door, I saw only a few police officers in suits and surveillance personnel.I couldn't help but wonder in my mind, did Shimada die in there?Was he killed with blood all over his body?I want to hang flowers to sacrifice, but unfortunately no one will let me in, I can only stand at the door and pray silently... I laughed at myself who fell into remorse, offerings, meditation, what are you talking about?Obviously, he sees death very simply, and wants to justify his cannibalism, but he still talks about offerings and blessings, which is too ironic.I, who live by eating human flesh, have no right to speak on human death.But…… But the tears were uncontrollable. A tear flowed from my left eye. I was only slightly surprised. It seemed that I was still a human being.I wiped away my tears and turned to leave, because if I stayed any longer, it would be more than just a tear. I rubbed my eyes and walked quickly to the hallway. "what!" "Uh..." I didn't look at the road carefully, and I bumped into someone in front of the hallway. I tried my best to stand firm and restrain the reaction force of my body.The person I bumped into sat down in the hallway, screaming in pain as he stood up, brushing the dust off his skirt. "Ah, sorry, are you okay?" "I heard someone screaming for pain, please don't come here to ask if they are okay." The one I bumped into was Jing, which made me a little nervous. "However, I was bumped into twice in just a few days. I'm simply a human magnet." She replied, and then looked at me with a little cold eyes, and we eye-to-eye for three seconds. "Hmm... Huh? You and I are in the same class, I have a little impression." "Ah... um." Student Jing is famous for not being able to remember other people's faces and names. "I remember you are someone who wouldn't bully Qianhe." "Yeah?" It was the first time that Chizuru's name was spoken out of Kagami's mouth, as far as I know.This person is much stronger than me, but as far as I know, she has never helped Chizuru who was being bullied.Is this thinking shirking responsibility?I guess so. "Hmm..." Classmate Jing tapped his forehead with his fingertips, as if trying to find my name from his mind. "I remember it was... that—" "Sae Yamamoto." I had to name myself. "Ah, that's right." After a moment of silence, Jing put his hands together. "Well, that's right, Sae, I completely remembered it, um, no problem, Sae, Sae... well, I will never forget it again." "Uh, classmate Jing, I'm really sorry, doesn't it hurt?" I picked up the schoolbag that fell on the floor and handed it back to her, expressing my apology. "It's okay, it's just that I've been bumped all the time recently." When she mentioned the same thing again, she seemed to be brooding. "Am I usually that bad at being a person..." "It's because I didn't take a good look at the road." "It's all right, because you're crying." "what?" "Oh, I won't think about it, don't worry." Student Jing suddenly smiled, this person sometimes said some overtones, although I don't think it has any meaning. "Uh...then—" The overtones have an unsettling effect, and I'm in a hurry to leave. "Then I'm going back." "Wait, Sae—" But Kagami didn't let me go. "You, do you know "Legend of Armor"?" "Armor legend?" "Well, it's a group of five wearing armor of different colors, such as red, blue, orange or something." "Armor?" I suddenly fell into an indescribable feeling, what is going on?is something happened? "Well, nothing happened as expected." Student Jing smiled: "Then see you tomorrow." "Huh? Ah, um." "Ah... that's right." "Anything else?" "Although it's not very good to say this, but do you hate Fujiki?" Kagami asked me in a low voice. "Fujiki?" I didn't know what she was going to ask. "No, I don't hate her." This is of course a lie, everyone who hurt Chizuru is my enemy, except for Shimada. "Why are you asking me that?" "Well, this is advice, forget it, you probably didn't notice it." "Uh, then I really have to go back..." I walked towards the hallway: I swore in my heart that even if I was called, I would never turn back.But... Student Jing disappeared at the end of the corridor after saying goodbye. My oath was completely meaningless, and the words "meaningless" contained 70% sadness.
