"So... what's with the mask?"
I glanced up at the young man behind the counter as he rung me out.
"None of your concern."
"...Okay then."
I decided to go on another shopping trip, but considering what I'll be using these devices for, it's probably best I kept my identity a secret.
If there's any way any of this can be traced back to me, then my school life will be over.
To say I'm going to be extreme will be an understatement, I need Kushida to feel as though she can trust me with her life.
To do that, I'll need to take drastic measures, while also somehow keeping my identity a secret.
"You aren't going to do anything sketchy are you?"
I looked out across me once more, and smiled under my mask.
"Mister, I'm going to be honest, the reason I need these phones is so that I can decrypt the codes in them to try and call my folks on the outside, I'm pretty tech savvy."
He looked at me strangely, before laughing.
"Haha, I never thought of that, well, I wish you luck then kid."
"Thanks, I hope you know the reason I'm wearing this now right?"
I pointed up at the mask, and he sent me a grin, putting a thumb up.
"Yup, I understand, the school enforces the rules pretty strictly."
I bowed, and thanked him, before exiting the store.
I've learned something.
When points are transferred from one person to another, the names of the people participating in the transaction aren't disclosed.
In other words, you can give another person points, and they won't have any idea it was you if you keep your identity a secret, and make sure they don't see the name on your card.
The reason for this is because it'd be too difficult if the private points are labeled as 'Shizukana's private points' because than they wouldn't automatically be added onto someone like Onodera's private points if I gave some to her.
In other words, the memory bank might get confused, because there's two different sets of private points in her account.
At least, that's my theory as to why this is a thing.
So, on top of all the precautions I took, my identity will remain a complete secret no matter how hard Kushida looks.
...
I awkwardly sat down next to Ayanokoji, with just him, me and Horikita sitting at the table.
"Kushida-chan should be here soon, before then, could you two sort out your problems?"
I glanced over at Ayanokoji, whom Horikita was glaring at.
"Horikita-chan. I've a-already said so, but it wasn't y-your fault. What can I do to show that?"
"There's nothing you can do, at the end of the day, I'm to blame, and nothing can change that."
"B-but I forgave you."
"That is not the problem, my misunderstanding of your problem lead me to make actions I shouldn't have."
I frowned at her words.
"I get that, r-really. But I'm saying you d-don't have to beat yourself up over it."
She stayed silent.
