Chapter 37 - [Glass like Heart]

"Ayano.....kouji?" Ibuki's voice reached everyone's ear, barely audible but the  Doubt and surprise, evident to everyone

"Hey thats the guy who raced with the student council during the Relay!" Ishizaki as well

Albert stayed quiet, but his body alone exuded surprise and wary

Soon enough, the previously quiet rooftop were filled with shouts of shock.

Until Ryuuen spoke

"So You're X?"

At this, Ayanokouji flinched, which Ryuuen didn't fail to notice

'X? What kind of cringy-ass-nickname is that?' Ayanokouji thought, before composing himself once more

"Heh. So you are.... Who would've thought that the person who seemed like a pet to Suzune was the one backing them up?"

"W-Wait!" Ibuki shouted, interrupting the conversation "there's no way that's him! I'm sure of it. I've been with him during the Island Exam, and he was just a dull guy through and through"

She knew Ayanokouji because he was one of the few who actually talked to her during her job as a spy on Class D.

And she didn't find anything suspicious about him. Aside from being a naive and gullible student, easily fooled by her

"Shut up Ibuki" Ryuuen spoke "if you're so sure about him being dull, then did you expect his performance in the sports festival to be like that?"

"Well.. no... But I know it's not him! Ask Shiina, right! He's her friend. We were with him the whole tim—"

She was about to continue when something flashed in her mind

'wait... Shiina?' she thought 'the bugging device.... Someone close to her.......!!'

Her head snapped in the quiet boys direction. Watching them argue like he didn't mind.

"N-No way..."

"Kukuku.... Finally see the light?"

"Ibuki" Ayanokouji spoke for the first time. His monotone voice making her shiver much more than the cold wind.

"If it helps you clear your doubt, then know that I was the one who knocked that Kaneda guy out during the Island Exam" Chapter 12 - [Epilogue]

"How do you know that....?"
Ibuki's eyes widened.

Truthfully, she nearly forgot about that incident, but only Ryuuen and her should know that information

"I told you, I was the one who did it. That's how Class D managed to obtain Class B's leader"

Ayanokouji spoke, bored if it was to be explained in one word

"In other words...

I'm the guy You're Looking for"

ㅤ
"Kukuku..."
Though Ryuuen chuckled, his fist formed into a hard ball

Veins began to bulge on his forehead, noticing Ayanokouji's demeanor

'this bastard...'

He was fooled by the person Infront of him. Too many to count.

He foiled his plans during the Island Exam

Left him with mysteries, unanswered until now.

Made him think he was laying low during the Sports Festival

And finally made a fools of him when he "interrogated" Class C for a nonexistent traitor

Ryuuen was more than furious. Especially now that the guy was standing infront of him like it was a stroll in the park
