Now that the kidnapping fiasco's over, Yuuji and I are enjoying classroom F that's empty after a day's worth of business.
"Akihisa, that person will arrive soon."
Just as we're sitting down and drinking tea, Yuuji said this.
"Who?"
"That old granny."
He probably meant the school principal.
"Would the principal personally come over here?"
"I called her over. When I met that old granny on the corridor, I told her to 'explain everything clearly'."
"Explain everything clearly...no way, Yuuji. She's still a senior. If there's anything, we should be the ones going over."
"Forget about that whatsoever...these series of events are all related to that old granny. I won't be satisfied if she doesn't explain everything."
"All related to that old granny—EHHHH?"
Yuuji said all these in a matter of fact fashion, yet it seems to be some sudden insider info to me.
"That, that damn old granny. What did she hide from us!?"
Because of this, Himeji-san and the rest got into danger, and made us have so much difficulty in running our teahouse business. We have to protest to that damn old granny!
"...Really, I even specially came all the way over here. You brats are really polite."
As the voice resounds, the sound of the door opening can be heard.
"So you came, old granny."
"So the mastermind behind all these has appeared!"
"Oh my, since when have I become the person behind all these?"
The principal shrugs her shoulders with an 'I'm the victim here' attitude.
"Though you aren't the culprit behind this, you didn't explain what's needed to be explained. This also counts as a form of betrayal."
"Uu...really. I knew that you're smart, but I didn't expect you to even guess what I'm thinking."
"I already felt that it was strange when you came up with the proposal. If we go according to your explanation, there's no real reason for you to ask us. You could have asked for someone with a higher score."
"Ah, now that you mentioned it, you're right. You could also have explained it to the winners and asked them to give up the prizes."
"That's right. It's too inefficient to set us up."
Set up...erm, I guess you mean 'support'?
"Don't tell me she didn't consider that the head of teaching department can't object directly if she could settle this?"
"If so, she wouldn't be so stingy with the repairing of the classroom. A student's health should be more important than education. As an educator, and especially a principal, it's impossible for her to object to this."
"In other words, this old granny purposely acted like that to force us to participate in the summoning tournament?"
"That's about it."
This, this old granny...!
"Do you still remember that condition I gave to that old granny?"
"Condition? Erm—"
"The condition to allow you to decide on the subjects, right? I see, you were testing me there."
"Mm, this was because I thought that you might give the same offer to some participants who're aware of this as well. If so, you wouldn't just agree with conditions that are only beneficial to us. However, that old granny actually accepted my proposal."
