COTE: A Man On A Mission II Love is War?

And the other side.

Masumi Kamuro, who succeeded in running away, returned to the student dormitory.

After putting her things down and thinking for a moment, she turned and headed to Sakayanagi's dormitory which is next door to hers.
　　
Just like a bad fate. At that time, Kamuro-san just thought that the person next door was not in good health and that she must be living a hard life.

'I didn't expect it to turn into such a relationship' It becomes very hard for her instead.

She also had to complete various errands and do troublesome things.
　　
'So I shouldn't sympathize with Sakayanagi Arisu from the beginning!'
　　
"Beep!"
　　
In the corridor of the student apartment, Kamuro took out her key card and scanned the machine on the door, then turned the door handle with a click and walked in.
　　
"Ara, you came earlier than scheduled." Sakayanagi was in the room.
　　
This petite, cute and frail girl with silver-white middle hair was sitting on the edge of the bed with a cane.

She looked at the door and said with a smile, "Kamuro-san. Are you so looking forward to being ordered by me?"

"Don't be silly!" Kamuro-san immediately complained, she didn't like this rhetoric,"I have a day off this afternoon."

"Oh." 'Are you still obedient? Give you a vacation, and you really want to have fun'....But Sakayanagi obviously wouldn't say such a thing.
　　
It's just that Kamuro-san is an M, and even though she is reluctant, she still completes her orders honestly.

'But she won't come in front of me unless I order her.... so if she's here now, it must be because something happened or she did bad things again?'

"I got a good thing today." Kamuro said, with some excitement on her face. She really likes doing unethical things.

Sakayanagi glanced at her in wariness, but still said calmly. "What did you steal again?"

"What do you mean again?!" Kamuro said immediately, she was really dissatisfied with her owner,"I only stole once when I came to this school, and then you caught me, that was simply a shame for me!"

"Oh" But the girl in front of her seemed quite calm. 'Because these words of Kamuro-san... can only be heard as lies.....
　　
This girl named, Kamuro Masumi comes from a good family environment. Her father is a painter and her mother is a violinist.

Learning to paint since she was a child. However, it is not so comfortable to have a family that is envied by outsiders.

She is under a lot of pressure. Coming from an excellent father, there is also the problem of his own bottleneck.
　　
Frequent pressure explosions. At this time, she found a way to deal with her emotions.

That's stealing.

Kleptomania is not about stealing things, but about enjoying the feeling of immorality.
　　
She would put things back after she stole them.

So, Kamuro-san actually has a problem inside. But this is her own secret, no one knows.
　　
'As a result, when I came to this
school....I just couldn't hold it back.' Just like any other horny teenager, who wanted to relieve some tension, by moving their hands.

Rather, it is indeed unbearable to come to a campus where so many students look forward to it and not do something.
　　
Then she stole a bottle of beer from the convenience store but immediately caught by Sakayanagi Arisu. It was really a horrible day.
　　
And then it became like this. Being coerced by the other party. But Sakayanagi doesn't think so.

Kamuro-san has excellent athletic ability. Although her brain is not bright enough, her execution ability is very reliable.
　　
'So if I accept her, she can serve as a tool for me.....'
　　
And. It's just that....this is Class A. Once Kamuro-san was exposed, it may become a weapon for other classes to attack them.
　　
And if she is caught stealing something in public....yeah, it will be a disaster for Class A. Probably lose 100 class points or maybe even more.... Kamuro-san would be isolated on the campus.

Therefore, Sakayanagi controlled her in order to gradually isolate her kleptomania.

'She wants to enjoy the sense of betrayal, so I give her the feeling of being ordered.....It's all about emotional catharsis anyway.'

And in this subtle way, when kleptomania no longer brings her pleasure, then it can be regarded as reforming her evil ways.
　　
Sakayanagi felt that she was doing something quite noble. But.
　　
"However, I took action today." Kamuro said, while taking out a black SD card from her pocket.
　　
'Kamuro-san, you big idiot! Did you commit the crime again?' Although Sakayanagi is still smiling, she is not in a good mood now.

"But today I didn't want to steal anything, but I had to do it." She explained calmly, not feeling guilty about her actions at all.

In fact, Kamuro thought, she'd done something heroic. 'After school, I went shopping for laptops, and then I met Hikigaya from Class D and his female classmates."

"They were shopping at an electronics store together."

Oh. 'There was actually information about an acquaintance....' Sakayanagi listened.
　　
"Then I noticed that Hikigaya's eyes seemed to be looking towards the counter of the clerk from time to time. Then I noticed that the clerk placed a sample machine on the counter, and the direction of the display was the angle of the candid photo."
　　
"So, to prevent anyone from suffering, I took away the camera's SD card," Kamuro said, with a proud face.

'Then you are great' "So... is this the SD card of the candid camera?" Sakayanagi sighed, looking at the card on her palm.
　　
"Yes." Kamuro-san nodded, "It's not clear what was recorded yet."

"We'll check it later," The petite-girl only sighed in response, and closed her palm, she couldn't destroy the evidence....... obviously didn't have much strength, "So, what were Hikigaya-kun and his female classmates doing?"
　　
"I don't think he's the type to go out with girls. He's probably doing some kind of charity," Sakayanagi analyzed carefully.

"That's not necessarily the case." Kamuro-san denied outright, "There were three girls with him today. And he is the only male."

'Really?' Sakayanagi found it incredible. "Then his campus life is really wonderful!" She curled her lips disdainfully.
　　
Because Hikigaya-kun looks like an ordinary high school student and is about to fall into a strange love cycle.

"Speaking of Hikigaya." Kamuro-san seemed to be hesitant to speak.
　　
"What happened again?" Sakayanagi asked again, she sounded agitated as if there was a headache coming.

"He seems to be planning to change his image and put on a pair of glasses or something." Kamuro said.

"Oh." Sakayanagi showed a lack of interest, "If Hikigaya-kun doesn't have such blind eyes, his appearance might be improved."

"But even if he changes, he is still just a relatively ordinary boy." She didn't have such superficial hopes.

"Really?" Kamuro didn't believe what this girl said,"I think he looks good."
　　
"..." Sakayanagi Arisu.

? ?
"Kamuro-san, you are not interested in him anymore. I advise you not to do it. That guy wants to be a househusband, who only wants to rely on rich women, so if you choose him, your life will be very difficult.

"The first thing you have to do when you wake up every day is to make money for him." Sakayanagi said while frowning.
　　
"Because after you get married, you will become the pillar of the family." Her face looked quite displeased, and Sakayanagi ridiculed Hachiman in front of Kamuro-san as much as she could.

Even leaked his future plans outright!

She didn't want her pet to fall for an unmotivated guy like him.

"...!" Kamuro yelled at Sakayanagi in anger, her face quite red "Don't say such horrible things!"

"I'm just saying that if Hikigaya wears glasses, his appearance will not be inferior to Hashimoto's!"

Getting married or something?! She really thought this Sakayanagi girl was a rude person.

Hashimoto, whose full name is Masayoshi Hashimoto, is a defector of Katsuragi kindergarten, but he is actually from the Sakayanagi Institute.
　　
He is recognized as a handsome guy in the class. And with that said, Kamuro-san unlocked her phone.
　　
"Oh." Sakayanagi took the other party's phone.

Clicked on the photo album.
　　
"..." The first thing she saw, was a boy wearing glasses. He was unassuming but looked reliable.
　　
Yes. Gives people a strong sense of security. 'It's no wonder that Kamuro-san takes pictures as a souvenir....'
　　
Yes, it is. This kind of boy will never lose to Hashimoto, who gives people the feeling of a playboy, but this one is better.

Reassuring. However.

"This is not a good thing." Sakayanagi shook her head at Kamuro-san.

When the girl in question was confused, Sakayanagi had already explained herself.

"If Hikigaya-kun becomes handsome, then maybe he will fall in love, and won't be able to compete with me. So, things like these...." She had a bitter look on her face, while saying this.

"I hope he can stay single during school." Then looked at Kamuro-san with her eyes moist.

'Ano- what the...I didn't expect Sakayanagi to say such a thing?'
　　
'Are you just looking forward to class competition? Obviously you didn't like it at all at first!' But this would also be beneficial to Kamuro-san.
　　
Because she is also a student of Class A, if Sakayanagi is willing to be serious and gain some points for the class, then it is natural for her to fly on the big ship of Class A.
　　
Although she has no expectations for the future, at least she has the university she wants to go to.
　　
"However, Hikigaya-kun went to the electronics store with the girls, right? What exactly happened there?" Sakayanagi asked next, looking very curious all of a sudden about his actions.
　　
Oh. That's it. 'So your focus is very strange. Weren't you just focused on the class confrontation?' Although, she wanted to complain, only Kamuro-san had no choice but to tell Sakayanagi the whole story of what happened today.

_________

And early the next morning. Hikigaya stretched and headed to the teaching building.
　　
Sakura's matter is over, but one thing is still unclear, that is, the clerk is a pervert, so why is he obsessed with Sakura?

And this question will soon be answered.

The reason is that the shoe cabinets on the first floor of the teaching building have the last names of the students posted on them.
　　
And he opened his shoe cabinet next to Hikigaya.
　　
What I saw was a large piece of white paper.

Not fully open though. But.

　　[Shizuku-chan, I am your fan]
　　[I love you! ]
　　[You must come to this school to see me, right? ]

　　[ I Love you so much! This must be our destiny! ]

　　[See you, see you, I will meet you! ]

Notes like this are almost full of shoe cabinets.

So is that really the case? Sakura is a graphic idol, and she doesn't know the store clerk, but since the clerk is new, he may be a fan of Sakura.
　　
As a result, this kind of fan... is really scary.
　　
So, Hachiman threw the trash away.
At the same time, I began to think that this fan was a pervert who took secret photos, was a fanatical fan, and even recognized Sakura, so he would definitely continue to harass her in the future.
　　
And this time it was because Hachiman gave the other party a fake last name, so he used the wrong shoe cabinet.
　　
But as long as he stays in school, the other party may go to the dormitory on the first floor to stay.
　　
If something bad happens it's over.
　　
So, something has to be done. Hachiman thought that he might have to go to Kamuro-san, get the SD card that the clerk secretly photographed, use it as an evidence, and then make a report.
　　
Maybe it works. Just when I thought about it.

Beep!

Hachiman found that a message had been received in the mailbox of his mobile phone, and the other party's number had already been seen once.
　　
It was a string of unknown numbers, but the last time Teacher Chabashira went to help him trade points and cash exchange permissions, he received a message from the school.
　　
And now the number is still the same.
　　
In other words, this is also a message sent by the school.
　　
However, the content of the message is...

　　[Thank you, Hikigaya-kun, for providing the SD card information. After investigation, it was confirmed that the clerk at the electrical appliance store had bad conduct.

Special personnel have been arranged to deport him. Thank you for your contribution to cleaning the campus.

　　A special expenditure of 30,000 personal points will be given as a reward, and your class's class evaluation score will be +3.

　　We also hope you have a good living environment. ]

Forehead.
　　
SD card, this is probably the one Kamuro-san took away.
　　
'In other words, she has actually reported it?....but in my name?'
　　
'It's just...this doesn't seem like Kamuro-san's ability to act. She is someone who likes to take orders'

That is to say. 'Hello! Sakayanagi, are you so strong?!' Hachiman then checked his student ID card. 'I did receive 30,000 private points on my account...'

In this way. Hachiman would have to go see her, during lunch break.

'To be precise, I have to treat the other party to a meal.Was this really a good thing?' To be honest, Hachiman was quite reluctant.

_____________

Canteen on the third floor.
　　
During today's lunch break, Hachiman was not with Horikita-san.
　　
Although the rice balls are not unpalatable, they are indeed the most delicious when someone treats them.
　　
But now he probably has to pay.
When Hachiman arrived at the private room on the third floor, there was no one inside, but this private room had been reserved by Sakayanagi Arisu for a long time and was exclusively for her use.
　　
She is truly wealthy and willful.
Hachiman didn't wait long.

About five or six minutes later, Sakayanagi came, while holding a cane.

"Ara..." A cute girl's voice sounded. "I don't remember inviting anyone else to my private room."

"I'm here to discuss the SD card issue yesterday," Hachiman said.

"Really?" She seemed to have suddenly lost interest. 'Does this mean you don't want to talk about business?' Hachiman was pretty confused.

"..." Sakayanagi was followed by Masumi Kamuro.
　　
Only Kamuro-san behind her understood that the reason for Sakayanagi's loss was not because the other party wanted to talk about business, but actually just because the current Hikigaya-kun didn't wear glasses.

'That is to say, didn't you buy flat glasses yesterday? Why not wear it?!'
　
The above is Kamuro-san's complaint, but she is certain that Sakayanagi is absolutely sure that Hikigaya Hachiman will be here at noon today.
　　
Rather, she controlled it. Because she said so yesterday.
　　
"If the SD card is reported, in the name of Hikigaya-kun, how will he respond?"

"First of all, he will definitely come to the private room to find me during the lunch break." Sakayanagi Arisu said, looking quite sure.
　　
Kamuro looks unhappy. She was the one who did the deed, so why not give her the credit for that heroic act?

It was finally her time to shine?! She was very displeased.
　　
"Don't feel dissatisfied. Do you think that I gave the credit for the report to Hikigaya-kun and then ignored, Kamuro-san?"
　
"No, rather, Kamuro-san, you can't be the one to report this time."
　　
Really? Indeed. If it is reported by Kamuro-san, then people may wonder how she got this SD card, so the story of the master thief Masumi may be exposed.

And Kamuro-san herself covered this very well, but ended up capsizing at Sakayanagi's place.

Therefore, once she is suspected of stealing, although it is a good thing, it may also affect the class, but it will be different if she is replaced by Hikigaya Hachiman of Class D.
　　
Most people pay very little attention to Class D.
　　
Two days ago, Hikigaya from Class D broke a camera and was notified by the whole school.
　　
So except for a few people who understood why he did what he did, most people probably regarded him as a troublesome delinquent.

Then in this way, the matter of the SD card stolen by Kamuro-san can be covered up.
　　
And if the clerk is dealt with or even expelled from the school, there will be no evidence left.

This is killing three birds with one stone.
　　
And one of them is now, deliberately giving Hikigaya this credit, then the other party will definitely come to you.

Then. Kamuro-san noticed Sakayanagi's obvious loss.

So that is indeed the case. She said it so grandly, but in the end she probably just wanted to see Hikigaya wearing glasses.

'Damn you, Sakayanagi!' So, probably feeling offended, Kamuro-san stopped paying attention to her.
　　
She sat alone in the corner of the private room, cooking in silence.

_________

"What an unexpected scene." And Sakayanagi also understood his intention.
　　
'After the SD card report, Hikigaya-kun received a reward of 30,000 points from the school, and an additional 3-point class evaluation score.

'So, he wanted to treat me because of the point rewards......'

After all, this is the reward she sent, and a suggestion was also given.

'That is, since the report this time received a point reward and an additional class points, can we also get some points from this perspective?' Her super-computer also started working at a rapid pace.

For example, observe faculty and staff, shopping mall staff, and various factors that may be detrimental to students and the school, etc.
　　
"Then come on," Sakayanagi said.

'My class does not need to work hard for these poor points. It is better to say that asking students in Class A to look for these loopholes is overkill.....

It's just that Hachiman didn't take this plan to get points to heart.
　
Because the rewards are too few.
Reporting a person for leaving school will award 3 points.

But the points deduction can be 10 points or 100 points.
　　
However, it was a way to gain points after all, so he shared it with the group.

He explained about accidentally discovering, that a clerk in an electrical appliance store was secretly filming, and after reporting it, he was directly sent home.
　　
Whistleblowers can also receive bonus points and a small amount of class evaluation points.

Not for extra points or rewards.

But to prevent... some students in the class, because of their puberty, and the class is full of cute girls, and then they want to install cameras in the girl's locker room during holidays or swimming lessons.

'This kind of thing may not happen in other classes, but in my class... well, I could never be sure....'

Once this kind of thing is exposed, the waiting list is probably to drop out of school or have a large deduction in the class points.

At the same time, the girls in the class will also fall out and cause discord in the class.

This is also the reason why Hachiman said he could only touch porcelain once in Class A.

Because many students are actually unable to occupy that high position. Rather, they don't deserve it.
　　
So, now it's time to prepare for a rainy day.

But. Sakayanagi said again. "Speaking of class competition, Hikigaya-kun, you made a declaration to me before, right?"

"Yeah. There's not much to say about this." Hachiman has the ambition to touch Class A once again.
　　
This is for money. As for the methods used, the current code of conduct, and obtaining detailed information about the school, the source is Sakayanagi Arisu.

And because he directly announced the class evaluation scores Class A lost its advantage, and got ripped off.

Because Class B doesn't know the school rules, points are constantly being deducted, while Class A is deducting 4 points in 6 days, which puts it firmly ahead.
　　
"I didn't give you an answer at that time." Sakayanagi said, with a smile "But now, I accept your declaration!"
　　
"But." She then reprimanded him lightly, "Please also correct your attitude and focus all your attention and energy on the class confrontation."

"Although you have been playing with the girls recently and fully enjoying campus life, it's not okay if you are not wary at all."

"Then I won't be interested if I win against you!" She said, waving her little hands in a manner....she won't be happy at all.

In other words, students in Class A have begun to think about this time's code of conduct... They hope other classes will deduct more points.

So, In addition to investigating the students in his own class and looking for available soldiers.

Hachiman also needs to make another preparation.

That is... 'First Grade Class B. How to drag this one in the mud?'

Hachiman was thinking about troublesome things.
