An unknown amount of time passed.
Feeling his head as heavy as if it were filled with lead, Hikigaya struggled to open his eyes and shook his somewhat dazed head.
What he saw.
Was the familiar dormitory style.
However, the bedsheets were a girlish pink, along with a few scattered bloodstains.
Hikigaya's still somewhat heavy head became even more confused as he frowned and thought.
How did he get back to the dormitory?
The last memory in his mind seemed to be his vision going black in the elevator.
"Oh, you're awake?"
Just then.
A flat voice sounded near his ear.
Hikigaya looked sideways and saw a girl with long purple hair sitting at the desk, wearing only a simple shirt.
Her snow-white legs were crossed, those "giant pandas" were half-hidden, and she was playing with her phone.
"..."
Hikigaya was instantly stunned, and then he realized he was also stark naked. He quickly pulled up the sheet and said with some anger:
"Why are you in my room?"
"Hehe."
Kamuro Masumi said disdainfully:
"With your personality, I'm afraid you still don't know my name. I'm Kamuro Masumi from Class A. This isn't your room, it's my room."
"Your room?"
Hikigaya was completely stunned and quickly looked around.
Besides the different color of the bedsheets, there were also no cushions prepared by Ichinose and Himeno Yuki by the low table; it was hard to see differences in other places.
"32 million."
At this time, Kamuro Masumi held her phone and said playfully:
"A Class C alone probably wouldn't be able to save up this many private points, plus you guys seemed to have used 10 million in the last class vote. How exactly did you get this many private points?"
"Is that my phone?"
"Don't worry, I didn't touch your private points."
Kamuro Masumi tossed the phone in front of Hikigaya, then picked up another phone on the desk and said playfully:
"You don't seem to have reacted to what happened yet, so let me tell you. Simply put, you just (raped) me."
"What?"
As she spoke, Kamuro Masumi clicked on a video on the phone.
In the footage, the camera looked down from above. One could only see a man pressing down on a girl, showing only the man's back.
That man seemed to be him.
However, he appeared to have no energy, lying on top of Kamuro Masumi like a salted fish.
"No... that's impossible!"
Hikigaya was momentarily stunned, clutching his head as he tried to remember.
How could he have done such a thing?
"I remember feeling dizzy in the elevator. No, it was you. You added something to the water you gave me."
"Congratulations, you guessed right."
Kamuro Masumi didn't look embarrassed at all; instead, she said with some pride:
"But do you think the school will believe me or you? Forcing your way into my room while I was off guard and raping me—that story seems much more persuasive."
Hikigaya's expression turned extremely grim.
It was true that girls held an advantage in this regard.
Even just shouting "pervert" on a train could cause a man's social death or even a prison sentence, regardless of whether he did it.
But it wasn't necessarily so; this was clearly a false accusation.
No matter how much the school favored Kamuro Masumi, Hikigaya knew he was innocent.
"Do you think the school is stupid?"
Hikigaya pointed at the phone in Kamuro's hand: "In this video, I am clearly unconscious. It's impossible for me to have laid a hand on you."
"Oh?"
Kamuro Masumi raised an eyebrow.
"You seem to suspect this is all fabricated just to frame you?"
"I was framed!"
Hikigaya gritted his teeth, saying angrily: "What exactly do you want? Framing someone like this—don't you think it's despicable?"
"Is that so? Then let's do it again."
Saying this, Kamuro Masumi walked toward Hikigaya on the bed with a playful look, her white shirt sliding to the floor.
Watching this, Hikigaya's face turned red, and his heart pounded.
This person couldn't be serious, right?
No, no.
Regardless of what she wanted to do, he couldn't betray Ichinose and Himeno Yuki again.
Thinking this, Hikigaya quickly grabbed his clothes and tried to run, but Kamuro Masumi blocked the exit.
Without thinking, Hikigaya raised his hand and pushed hard. After all, he was a boy and stronger than these girls.
However, Kamuro Masumi tilted her body, grabbed his wrist, and twisted it outward.
A sharp pain came from his shoulder, forcing Hikigaya to lean his body with the force.
With a light kick to his feet, Kamuro Masumi pinned Hikigaya to the ground.
Her face leaned close to his cheek as she said mockingly:
"Unfortunately, my physical ability rating is B+, and I've studied Karate and Aikido. In terms of strength, I might be the number one girl in the second year."
Hikigaya tried to struggle, but every movement caused pain in his joints.
What kind of monsters are these? Why are there so many monsters in this school?
"What do you really want?"
"What do I want?"
Kamuro Masumi whispered into his ear with a playful tone:
"You think this is just a false accusation. You're right, that video is indeed fake. I just moved you on top of me. You're quite heavy."
Nonsense.
Even without her saying it, Hikigaya knew it was fake.
Although he didn't know what she was up to, Kamuro Masumi clearly wanted to frame him; there was no way she would do it for real.
As long as an investigation was held, he could be proven innocent. There was nothing to fear.
Just as Hikigaya breathed a sigh of relief, Kamuro Masumi's lips curled into a smile:
"However, while you couldn't move, I did actually sleep with you. Congratulations, Hikigaya, you've successfully taken the first time of another beauty—and such a beautiful woman like me."
"What?"
Hikigaya was completely stunned. Before he could react, he felt a soft sensation lick his ear.
"We still have some time. If you don't believe me, let's do it again."
"..."
Feeling a kiss on his cheek, Hikigaya suddenly snapped out of it.
No. He absolutely could not do anything to betray Ichinose again.
Hikigaya quickly shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Help! Help! Help... Fire! Someone help!"
Shouting other things might not work, but a fire alarm would definitely cause a commotion.
"???"
Kamuro Masumi froze for a moment, then immediately pinched Hikigaya's cheeks so he couldn't make a sound.
"Keep screaming. Today, even if you scream your throat out, no one is coming to save you."
She licked her lips and kissed Hikigaya's puckered mouth.
Dozens of minutes later, Hikigaya lay on the bed with hollow eyes.
If what Kamuro Masumi said was true, then what happened before he woke up was likely real as well.
"Why... why do this..."
Hikigaya stared blankly at the ceiling, his voice sounding like grinding machinery.
On the other side, Kamuro Masumi was calmly making a phone call.
"Yeah, it's done. Come over."
After finishing, she glanced at Hikigaya lying on her bed.
With a look of disdain, she said:
"It's just sex. What's the big deal? So childish. This was all arranged by Sakayanagi for Class A. You'll understand when she gets here."
"Sakayanagi..."
Hikigaya's eyes remained hollow.
"It's just... that's all?"
The marks on the bed proved it was her first time.
Was such a thing so inconsequential to Kamuro Masumi?
"I wonder what kind of expressions Ichinose and the others will make when they find out."
"It'll be quite a sight."
As she dressed, her tone was noticeably excited.
It was like stealing Ichinose's man behind her back; if people found out, she would surely be despised by everyone.
It was so thrilling!
Seeing Hikigaya motionless, Kamuro Masumi indifferently pulled the sheet over him.
A few moments later, the doorbell rang.
