Chapter 141: It's Not That You Didn't Commit a Crime-Your Crime Is Even Worse!

After learning that Shiraki had privately tried to sell Yuto the midterm papers, Ninomiya relaxed.

"So that's all it was. I thought something serious had happened."

"..."

Nagumo and Tonokawa remained silent.

They both knew the situation could not possibly be that simple.

Yuto had not reached the important part yet.

Besides, if this were merely about Shiraki selling papers, why would the student council have summoned them too?

Instead of continuing, Yuto gave Ninomiya a refreshing smile.

"Sensei, don't you think privately selling midterm papers violates the school's educational principles?"

Ninomiya glanced at Chairman Sakayanagi and immediately spoke with righteous conviction.

"Of course. It seriously violates the school's principles. I believe the student responsible should be severely punished!"

Nagumo's mouth twitched violently.

'Sensei, could you please stop talking?!'

Nagumo was the mastermind behind the sale!

"What punishment do you think would be appropriate?" Yuto continued digging the hole with a smile. "Personally, I think the student should be expelled. What do you think?"

"I also thi-"

"Cough! Cough, cough!"

Nagumo suddenly began coughing.

Seeing Ninomiya's puzzled expression, he quickly said, "Sensei, the student council has clear regulations for punishing violations. We can't simply expel someone because we feel like it."

Ninomiya felt that Nagumo had offended her and replied unhappily, "Of course I know that! You don't need to remind me."

Nagumo clenched his fist.

'If I hadn't stopped you, you senile old woman would've followed Shimizu Yuto's words and agreed that I should be expelled!'

Ninomiya glanced toward Chabashira, who was resting with her eyes closed.

"I believe that student is from Class 2-D, correct? Only a Class D student would commit this kind of violation."

"..."

Chabashira opened her eyes and glared sharply at Ninomiya.

She was about to respond when warmth suddenly covered her hand.

Glancing down, she saw Yuto holding it.

Yuto gave her a look that clearly said, 'Leave this to me.'

Chabashira pressed her lips together and remained silent, curious to see how he intended to defend her.

Strangely, she did not pull her hand away.

Had she forgotten?

Or did she simply not mind letting the troublesome boy continue holding it?

Yuto smiled toward Ninomiya.

"Sensei, whether a student breaks school rules shouldn't have anything to do with which class they belong to."

"If anything, it should reflect on the teacher responsible for educating them."

"If a student's teacher possesses excellent character and knows how to guide young people properly, surely their students wouldn't behave like this. Wouldn't you agree?"
