"Did you know?"
—Nowadays, this phrase is often used as an opening for gossip.
And this time, when Hayato entered the classroom, he was greeted by Yamamoto Sakito saying this to him.
"Kobayashi-bro, did you know?"
He asked, his expression mysterious with a hint of panic. He didn't make too much of a fuss, but walked up to Hayato before asking.
"Hm? Know what?" Hayato asked.
"Those delinquents... you know, the ones from High School, something happened to them," Yamamoto Sakito said.
Hayato frowned: "What happened?"
"It seems they offended some big shot and were severely taught a lesson. The leader, blonde with earrings, was beaten half to death, and I don't know how many bones he broke!" Yamamoto Sakito whispered. Actually, the classroom was like a noisy market right now, many people were discussing this issue, but Yamamoto Sakito felt he was different from other students; they had direct contact with blonde with earrings, so he spoke very cautiously.
"...Is that so?" Hayato said with a slight surprise.
He wasn't surprised that blonde with earrings would get into trouble; in fact, he had long expected it, he just didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
If his guess was correct, blonde with earrings and his group must have found Snake Mound George.
Delinquents in school would naturally not be a match for gangsters in society; their complete annihilation was purely normal.
"Kobayashi-bro... this has nothing to do with you, right?" Yamamoto Sakito said strangely.
"Not much relation," Hayato said.
But Yamamoto Sakito still looked at him like that. Kobayashi-bro had asked him about those delinquents yesterday, and today the delinquents were done for. It looked like... But, since Kobayashi-bro didn't want to admit it, Yamamoto Sakito wisely didn't say too much, only feeling more wary and respectful in his heart. Kobayashi-bro's strength was indeed more terrifying than he imagined!
Hayato sat down.
Although those delinquents were acting on his instructions, Hayato had no intention of avenging them. Those delinquents were never good people from the start. After he taught them a lesson, whether it was the time with Kobayashi Ayaka or later with Sanada Minako, it was clear that they could not change their nature... So Hayato never considered them his own.
Moreover, this suicidal attack was, in itself, Hayato sending them to their doom.
Hayato had been pondering things not described in the notebook... which was Snake Mound George's background.
Was he working with a gang or alone?
In the notebook, Snake Mound George always appeared alone, but according to the narration, his business didn't seem like something one person could manage. Now, being able to easily wipe out dozens of delinquents, it could be confirmed that Snake Mound George had accomplices.
It's still unclear about his background, so no need to rush for now.
Hayato was thinking when Anshi Seiji, the dung beetle head, rushed over.
"What are you guys talking about? Include me?"
Hayato smiled slightly and said kindly, "Scram."
Anshi Seiji: QAQ
"Aibo, are you really abandoning me to go with this brat Yamamoto!? Yamamoto, I challenge you to a duel!!"
Hayato didn't want Anshi Seiji to get involved in such matters, which was why he had kept Yamamoto Sakito out of it yesterday.
"How will we duel?"
"In the new mobile game Star—"
Hayato didn't wait for Anshi Seiji to finish; he began to empty his mind and gaze into the distance.
He needed to find a stone slab and sink Snake Mound George into Tokyo Bay.
...
Shinjuku, a certain location.
Snake Mound George's face was wrapped in layers of gauze; the humiliation he suffered at Shirakawa High School yesterday truly disgusted him.
However... he had also managed to obtain information about that "delinquent high schooler."
To be honest, Snake Mound George didn't know his name at first; the name "Kijima Yoichi" sounded fake.
However, Mr. Hayashi still had his subordinates investigate.
The result was indeed a male High School student… but he was from High School.
A student from High School would naturally not be in the infirmary of Baiqiu High School.
However, the fact that Mr. Hayashi could state this name proved that the two must have some kind of relationship.
Moreover, they absolutely couldn't be good friends; it was highly likely they were enemies.
Shezuka licked his injured lip, then, dragging his injured body, he headed towards High School.
He wanted to contact that High School student, Kijima Yoichi, thinking that an enemy of his enemy was a friend, and perhaps he could extract information about Mr. Hayashi.
But he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived at High School, he was intercepted by a group of delinquents leaving school.
The leader even said something like, "Hmph, I've searched high and low for you, and now you've come to me… Someone actually came knocking on my door."
As a result, he was beaten up again.
Shezuka couldn't bear it anymore.
He called his subordinates, and they used steel pipes to brutally beat up those brutes.
Mere delinquents were naturally no match for professionals like them, so Shezuka easily extracted the information.
The one who called these delinquents to deal with him was named Murae.
Perhaps Murae was the real target.
And after today's investigation, Shezuka could confirm that the delinquent from Shiraki was indeed named Murae.
Not bad, you brat.
Shezuka revealed eyes as sinister as a venomous snake… To be from Shiraki, yet have his reach extend to High School, ten years ago, he would never dare to provoke such a peer.
But… what a pity, Uncle is going to be angry now.
Heh, delinquents… delinquents among students…
What kind of abilities could they possibly have?
Shezuka thought disdainfully, "Let me resolve all of this in an adult manner; I'll show you a thing or two."
"Found him!"
Just as Shezuka was thinking, a subordinate ran into the private room of the bar and shouted at Shezuka, "Big Brother George, I found the background of that guy named Kobayashi—and he really does have a girlfriend, and that girlfriend isn't Yayoi!"
Shezuka adjusted his pants, his eyes gleaming even brighter.
Sure enough, it was like this; Sister-in-law Yayoi actually became a High School student's mistress… Quite exciting and provocative.
But since you touched my prey, let me savor the taste of your woman.
"Who is it?"
"Her name is Nanao Akane… she used to be the manager of the Baseball Club!" the subordinate said.
Then another subordinate walked in, heard their conversation, and frowned, saying, "I think you've made a mistake, haven't you? My information says his girlfriend is called Miyajima Sakura."
"Nonsense!" another subordinate quickly followed, "It's clearly Kobayashi Ayaka."
"Huh? Isn't it Shigen Ryouka?"
"But the information I received says the girl he likes is clearly Reina?"
"What's going on?"
Shezuka was slightly stunned, then slapped his thigh.
That brat, he's got some nerve! He actually set up a smokescreen to lure him in!
"Heh, we have a clever opponent," he sneered.
"These people absolutely cannot be his girlfriends! He released false information to protect Yayoi.
If we target those women, we'll fall into his trap…"
"Big Brother George is brilliant," a subordinate quickly said, "I also investigated Reina, and that woman does have some background!"
