Undifferentiated Elimination
Chapter 12
The next morning, I was dragged out of my bed by Aizawa -sensei to go to school.
Obviously, the excuse of having a girlfriend wasn't an excuse for not going to school. I silently pulled my bag and reluctantly went to school with Aizawa -sensei.
"Yo, Enoshima came very early!"
When I came to the class, the head of the class greeted me. I greeted him with a smile and sat down on my seat.
"You don't look very good, Enoshima -classmate," Looking at the dark circles under my eyes, my deskmate Chako Hikari asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I just stayed up late last night," I rubbed my eyes and suddenly saw a letter in the drawer.
"… What is this?"
I curiously pulled it out to take a look. The moment I saw the pink envelope, the students sitting around me exclaimed one after another.
"Enoshima -classmate actually received a love letter!!!!"
"I didn't expect the first one to be Enoshima -classmate … I thought it would be Hong classmate."
I didn't say anything. After tearing off the seal, I opened the envelope generously:
The moment I saw the familiar handwriting, my pupils suddenly shrank.
… Who is this person?
Inside the envelope was a love letter with all kinds of typos that I don't know where it came from. The order of the words was also a bit messy, as if it was because of nervousness that it became incoherent.
"Hey, hey, who is the girl who gave you the love letter?
Is it from our school?! "Kamui patted my shoulder excitedly.
"Don't think too much."
I smiled and put the envelope away. Then, I looked at the people around me and said, "This is my first time meeting someone.
"Actually, it's nothing, just an old friend …" Who knows what he was thinking.
"Hey, Enoshima -classmate doesn't like her?" Ashito asked curiously.
"…" I didn't say anything, but began to seriously think about this question.
Speaking of which … I don't seem to hate that guy that much, right?
"I don't hate him," I shook my head.
I have never hated people who suit my taste, although that guy doesn't seem to have a good relationship with my master.
"If you don't hate him, I guess you like him, right?" Shang Ming shook his head and patted my shoulder.
"It's not good to be too hesitant. It's a rare opportunity to get out of singlehood, so I have to seize it!"
"It's not that rare … It's not like I haven't had a girlfriend before …" I said casually, but I noticed that the surrounding youths all had shocked expressions.
"You, you, you!!!"
"Enoshima, you actually had a girlfriend!!
You're only 15 years old! "
"Is it strange?
Then if you guys knew that I had a boyfriend before, would you guys faint from shock? "I said with a bit of a headache.
Suddenly, the class fell silent. It was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
Even Explode stared at me in disbelief.
"Pfft." I couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm just kidding, don't be so serious … I did have a girlfriend, but I don't have a boyfriend."
Seeing the people around me let out a sigh of relief, I pulled my hair and asked curiously:
"Why are you guys so sensitive about this kind of thing? Being gay isn't that big of a deal, right?"
— — Anyway, I don't mind this kind of thing.
"It's not because of anything else … It's just that it's very strange." Ceshima shook his head and then looked at Explode.
"Am I right?
Explode? "
"Damn!
Why are you asking me this question!! "Explode instantly exploded.
I smiled and began to think about the letter again.
The words on the right side of the letter were slightly bolded. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to see it.
If you rearranged it, the general meaning should be "See you tomorrow."
So it was that guy …
I frowned slightly and pressed my finger between my eyebrows.
If it was Osamu Dazai, it wouldn't be easy to deal with …
How did he know that I was going to Yokohama tomorrow??
Why would he use such an old-fashioned method like writing a love letter? Does he think that I'm an innocent girl?
However, the letter didn't mention the time or place. That guy has always been elusive, so I couldn't be sure when I would meet him.
Osamu Dazai also had the ability to eliminate superpowers like me. His [Mortal Disqualification] wasn't inferior to my [Indiscriminate Elimination]. Although I had Shifu's buff, I wasn't afraid that I wouldn't be able to defeat him if I faced him head on.
However, this guy was too smart. He would always think of a backup plan before doing anything. There was no way that he would come looking for me without any preparation.
Teacher Mike's loud voice covered the clamor of the class. I casually threw my English book on the table. When I raised my head, I happened to meet Explode's eyes.
… Huh?
That guy glared at me and turned his head away fiercely. I was stunned for a moment.
"Don't mind Explode classmate. Although he seems difficult to get along with, he's still a very loyal person in his heart!" Ceshima whispered to me.
"Ah, I know." I nodded and said understandingly.
The type of people I hate the most are those who don't use their brains and don't listen to others. Although Explode always looks fierce and doesn't listen to others, he actually listens to every word I say. He even thinks and improves on his own.
I could tell from the competition that even though he didn't seem to like me, he listened to every word I said and even came up with better ideas.
— — When Bombardment Jelly and Oshiko Musō arrived at the door, I quietly dispelled my domain. In that instant, Explode launched an attack and caught them off guard.
Then, I used my passive ability to seal Bombardment Jelly's abilities while Explode blocked Oshiko Musō's movements.
I have to say, although he has a bad temper … His reaction speed, fighting ability, and thinking ability are all top-notch. If he had a better temper, he would be a perfect existence.
I'm looking forward to what he will become in the future.
The day's classes were still boring. The basic classes were very simple for me, so I basically just slept.
The homeroom teacher's class and the basics of heroes were also seriously attended, but she still couldn't get up.
I planned to take the night train to Yokohama in the evening, so I asked someone to buy a ticket in advance.
My original plan was to go to Yokohama to meet a client who wanted to work with me for a long time and see how my master was doing.
But Osamu Dazai seemed to be a variable.
"Aizawa -sensei, I have an appointment with someone tonight, so I won't be going back."
After class, I thought for a long time and decided to tell Aizawa -sensei in advance.
Aizawa -sensei's hand paused for a moment, and he helplessly massaged his temples.
"Another girl … Although as a teacher, I shouldn't interfere with your personal life, but sometimes you should know how to control yourself …"
Me: … Sensei, I don't understand what kind of control you are talking about.
"No." I shook my head.
"I'll take the night train to Yokohama and meet an old friend."
— — An old friend named Osamu Dazai.
Although he was an "old friend", I didn't spend a lot of time with him.
I watched him go from being a gangster to a clean one, but no matter if he was a gangster or a gangster, this man was probably the type that gave me the most headaches, and also my master the most headaches.
"… Okay, be careful."
Aizawa -sensei nodded and patted my shoulder.
Aizawa -sensei never restricted my personal freedom, probably because he thought I was more sensible, so I wouldn't act recklessly.
