It’s a girls’ school after all.
The reason why Yoshiko-san has been in a troubled situation and everyone hasn’t noticed is because the problem is that Yoshiko-san couldn’t say it herself. She’s finally frank and so you all can take your time after bath and talk about it Minaho-neesan looked at us and smiled.
You can’t solve Yoshiko-san’s solitude for half a year that quickly, can you? Yoshiko-san still has a lot she hasn’t said and it would be better if Kou’s not there. Give them some girl’s talk
You could say that.
If I leave then Yoshiko-san would find it easier to talk.
Yoshiko-san is under the impression that she has to have sex with me to become equal with Misuzu and Ruriko.
It’s not her obligation though.
Kou, can I join in the conversation?
Mariko asks me.
I’m also a student of the same school, I’m not a daughter of nobility, so I know conversations that don’t reach Misuzu-sama and Ruriko-sama’s ears
Right. Opinion from a third party like Mariko would be crucial.
Yeah. Thanks. Misuzu, let Mariko join in the conversation
Certainly, Danna-sama
Misuzu agreed with a smile.
Anyway, listen to everything Yoshiko-san had piled up in her heart and then think about what to do. Yoshiko-san too, okay?
i.
If you think with everyone, you’ll be able to manage somehow. If you still haven’t found your answer, then you can change schools and go to ours
Yes, it’s fun over our side! You can eat delicious food every day!
Edie, it’s just you.
Edie’s the only one who guards the bakery when we’re on sale and she never helps out in making pastries.
Well, she’s a genius at everything she does.
She’s doing it to not disturb the others, but.
But still.
Edie, I never tried out a pastry you baked
Darling?
Well, I just thought that if it’s you, Edie, I’m sure that you can make delicious pastries
I feel like this genius could make something amazing.
Then, soon
Edie smiled.
Anyway, our school doesn’t care about the young ladies or servants. Yoshiko-san’s a beauty, and you have a good personality, so I’m sure that they’ll like you
But, there’s only half a year before I graduate
Yoshiko-san said.
If it’s about enduring something, then half a year is a long time. If the environment doesn’t suit you, running away is the right choice
I think.
If I were to met someone who thinks differently than me, then I won’t correct their way of thinking. I’ll go away from them as soon as possible, if I recall, that was a quote from Heinlein’s novel
Minaho-neesan speaks to Yoshiko-san.
It may be your fate to fall in such a troublesome situation but knowing how to escape is human effort. You don’t have to do anything unreasonable nor endure anything. As mentioned earlier, there’s no have to, need to, in this world. If you force yourself that your heart bursts and crashes, then it’s better to run away. The thought of There’s no paradise for those who escape from the pain is a lie. If there’s no paradise where you escaped then just escape again. There should be a place that’s kind to you somewhere. A life where you jump from place to place is okay Minaho-neesan escaped from the hell of Black Forest brothel.
Even if there’s a five-year limit, Minaho-neesan that she had to reopen the brothel.
Minaho-chan’s like a teacher!
Agnes smiled.
Agnes hasn’t gone to school yet but Nei-chan watched a school story movie with us
Err.
Minaho-chan is like the school teacher
Minaho-neesan is our homeroom teacher. Yeah.
She’s supposed to be our English teacher but she’s a mysterious teacher not teaching in any other classroom.
I mean, the truth is her license is a fake one.
Therefore, she’s not teaching us.
I have to work hard too I guess
Minaho-neesan smiled wryly.
Even if I pass the secondary education University Entrance Qualification Exam in one year, I don’t think that I can get a five-year qualification
Minaho-neesan’s dream is to become a school teacher.
It’s okay. No matter how many years it takes, the school you’re going to for teaching practice is already settled
Minaho-neesan is the board chairman of our school.
She has a place to return.
True
Minaho-neesan smiled.
Kouzuki-sama has a reward for you
Reward?
Yes, for the hard work you’ve done for the past two days
what is Jii-chan giving to me?
We obtained a middle school
Huh?
To be precise, a private junior high school class
What does that mean?
You see, girls who are truant or have problems with their home exist in any middle school. But, middle school is compulsory education, see? If you can’t go through it, then you can go to the school infirmary instead of the classroom and study there Yeah.
A board chairman who’s an acquaintance of Kouzuki-sama created a special classroom for such girls with a troublesome situation. An old school building where other students don’t go in
So Mana’s going thee?
Mana’s new school hasn’t been decided yet.
With her past as Shirasaka Maika, she can’t enroll in Misuzu’s school.
If she’s in an ordinary middle school, and her identity is exposed, she would be bullied.
Shirasaka Sousuke’s an enemy of the nation even now.
Not just Mana-san, Arisu-san too
Arisu too.
The Kurama sisters can’t go to the school for the young ladies anymore.
Their father is hiding from the bill collector after all.
There would be no need to go to and from there every day. All you had to do is show results when you’re there. There’s no need to show in front of the other students too. That class is created so other students don’t interfere. I mean, the ordinary students don’t know anything about that special class So, they never meet students from the same middle school?
Even in graduation, they can just get their certificate in the principal’s office in secret. Anyways, they only need to have a school register and graduate from middle school and then they can attend our high school Minaho-neesan said.
But, that would mean that Mana and Arisu can’t make new friends in school
That’s what I’m worried about
You can’t ask for that much in our situation
Minaho-neesan said.
Middle schoolers nowadays keep in touch through phones when they become friends, right? If anyone notices Mana-san’s true identity, it will spread immediately. Furthermore, it won’t reach just the school but the media too Oh, if anyone makes a rumor about the daughter of Shirasaka Sousuke attending in their school.
It’ll spread throughout Japan in one day.
The media would jump in and cover it right away.
If we want to erase her past, then we need the people to lose interest in her first. At any rate, that’ll take years
Until Mana grows beautifully that she no longer overlaps with her past image as Shirasaka Maika.
Arisu-san too. Currently, her behavior and speech are still of a young lady, right? It would be dangerous to place her together with ordinary people
Arisu who speaks like a young lady would be a target of bullying too?
Furthermore, if they discover that Arisu’s home, Kurama house, lost their assets, the bullying would escalate.
Arisu-san still has some work to do depending on her progress but Mana-san will have to spend her remaining time in middle school to launder her personal history. Her ordinary life will return to high school
I think Minaho-neesan’s right on this one.
But, we can’t progress unless she enrolls in a middle school, graduate, and obtain records. Of course, she’s going to use Yoshida Mana as her name
For Mana to accomplish her dream of becoming a supermodel someday.
She needs to have records of graduating from middle school as Yoshida Mana.
Arisu-san should change her surname too. You should talk to Arisu-san when deciding about it
