Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Players started to improve their impressions.
The player who single-handedly caused all the starting players of the tennis club to be late was completely unaware of this. He sat at the task check-in point like a primary school student and played the newly refreshed Little Crocodile Bathing Game.
Damn little crocodile, he doesn’t even want a drop of water to wash himself!
But the player still succeeded in the challenge!
【Today's check-in task (1/4)】
When the player closed the task bar, he found that a group of NPCs had gathered in front of him without him noticing.
NPC: "#Actually￥%...#Trash hat%&..."
NPC: "#!@Strange...&Dazed*..."
NPC: "He's looking over here!"
The NPCs were chattering away, and the players who hadn't received the task after waiting for a while just clicked Skip.
Outside the classroom of Group A of the first grade, Marui Fumita, who quickly ran over to keep an eye on the students after the first class, didn't dare to be distracted at all.
The second class was with a dejected Kirihara Akaya.
The third class was the hurried-footed Jack Sanghara.
The fourth lesson is...
"No——that guy doesn't even need to move!?"
During lunch break, everyone finally came to the classroom of Group A of Grade 1, and the few people who had been monitoring them for the whole morning took turns exchanging information.
Marui Bunta: "He was sitting like that when I came in after my first class."
Kirihara Akaya: "Is...is that right? The other first years didn't seem to react when they talked to him."
Jack Kuwahara: "Just now I heard the first-year teacher asking others if Yagi was a spy sent by the neighboring school..."
There was a moment of silence, and everyone looked again at the garbage hat lying motionless in the middle of the classroom...Mushroom Head.
But to his surprise, the first grader who had been unresponsive the entire morning finally moved!
Everyone in the tennis club: "!!"
The first-year students, who had become familiar with the surroundings and started eating their lunch boxes, had no idea that danger was approaching.
Although at first the students who rushed into this checkpoint with strange movements were full of unknown fear.
But the other party didn't move the whole morning, and even if I spoke to him, I would only get a "..." response.
As time went on, everyone started to ignore the peculiarity he had just displayed and began to exchange the latest information about the community.
"Hey, hey, have you heard? It seems like there's a new miracle student in our school's tennis club recently!"
"I know, I know! He defeated the second-year seniors, right? I heard the third-year seniors are also impressed by him!"
"I really want to know who is in which class! I really want to meet them if I have the chance!"
"Hahaha Sakaguchi, I don't think you want to get to know someone, you want to spar with them, right?"
"—Hey!! Eat your lunch!"
The first graders were laughing and playing. A boy named Sakaguchi picked up a fried shrimp and was about to put it in his mouth. When he looked up, he suddenly found that the friends opposite him had strange expressions on their faces.
Sakaguchi: "What's wrong? I just wanted to spar with you. It's not a big deal. Why do you look so scared?"
Sakaguchi: "..."
Sakaguchi: "Nothing scary is happening right now, right?"
The conversations between NPCs cannot attract players. The only thing that can attract players is - [Pickup]!
The evil little hand moved,
【Pick up】!
[Obtain Sakaguchi Family Special Fried Shrimp Bento x 1, +30 Stamina]
【Pick up】!
[Obtain a certain brand of nutritious fruit and vegetable juice x 1, +15 Stamina]
【Pick up】!
[Obtain Ice Cream Flavored Egg Pudding × 1, +20 Stamina]
Oh hoo! A huge restock of supplies and resources!
This place is simply paradise!
The players were having a lot of fun picking up the items, while the NPCs who were robbed were stunned by the whole operation.
At this moment, he could only look at the player who was constantly looting lunch boxes and putting the garbage hat on his head, angry but not saying a word.
NPCs: "Q dish Q!! ￥#……&…%￥!"
That would be fine, but after the players robbed the NPCs, they marked the resource point and turned around to go to the next class to continue refreshing.
The player who just left the house was picked up again by the waiting one.
Sanada, who stood outside the door and witnessed the whole process, said with a dark face: "...This is so shameless!"
Marui, with a complicated expression, said: "If you are hungry, let Kuwabara treat you to a meal. Don't go and steal the poor classmate's food!"
Kuwabara, who was suddenly QQed, said: "Hey, why did you suddenly let me...ah, really, why is it always me in the end..."
The cat that robbed innocent people was severely punished and forced to hand over its empty lunch box.
Everyone: “…”
In the end, the sinful Mushroom Head was physically escorted to apologize to his classmates one by one.
Yagi Kei's dead eyes: "..."
The first grader who was devastated by having his lunch taken away: “QAQ wuwu… No, it’s okay, wuwu… My food…”
The tennis club members and a mushroom were loaded into the student cafeteria.
It's only been one morning, but for some reason I feel exhausted both physically and mentally, as if I've been both a father and a mother at once.
Marui Bunta and Jack Kuwahara went to buy lunch, while the head of the department, Sanada Genichirō and Yanagi Renji, stood on the left and right, keeping Mushroom Head firmly in the middle.
Black-faced NPC: "How lax! He disappeared from tennis club practice without asking for leave, even chopped down trees with a tennis racket, and did that to his classmates!"
Squinty-eyed NPC: "I analyzed the soil in the back mountain. So they're using it for farming? The seeds look like potatoes. How could they think of using tennis rackets to chop down trees? %￥#..."
The player ignored it and completed today's check-in task to gain four points of intelligence.
The player rummaged through his backpack again and successfully found some small trash.
Genichirō Sanada and Renji Yanagi were talking one after another, one on each side, until their mouths were dry and dry. Kirihara Akaya, who was sitting opposite them, shuddered inexplicably.
He was able to endure the long speeches and scoldings from Vice Minister Sanada and Senior Yanagi without any expression. It's so terrifying!
Thinking of this, he hesitated and wanted to speak out to excuse the junior who had already been identified as Mushroom Head. After all, Kei had only done something slightly beyond the rules... It was not murder or arson!
Just like our younger generation is just a little naughty, but if you look into it, he actually has no bad intentions at all!
Kirihara Akaya seemed to be hesitant to speak, swaying as he looked at the faces of his seniors.
The first-year junior who had always had dead eyes and an attitude of "You can say whatever you want, I don't care whether I listen or not" moved his eyes.
Kirihara Akaya, who had keenly noticed this, suddenly made a tactical retreat: "!"
Although, however, now as soon as this guy moved he couldn't help but want to retreat.
How can this not be considered a form of PTSD to the player!!
Sanada, who had been scolding someone and giving them a lecture on how to behave properly, turned around and saw the actions of another equally worrying guy. He frowned deeply, "Akaye! What are you—"
Before he could finish his words, his nostrils were blocked by something held in the player's suddenly raised hands.
Dark-faced Sanada: "..."
Kirihara Akaya, who was tactically retreating, said: "Vice-Minister Sanada..."
Yanagi Renji, who had already begun to frown, said: "..."
Across from them, Niou Masaharu, who was already shaking with laughter, and Yagyu Hiroshi, who slowly adjusted his glasses, remained silent, only mentally increasing the danger level of this strange new student by another +1.
Sanada's anger had accumulated to an unbearable point and was about to explode. The younger generation with lifeless eyes thought about it and raised the thing in his hand again.
Sanada suppressed his anger and looked over, only to find that the thing that had just blocked his nostrils was a daffodil in full bloom.
Genichiro Sanada: "..."
The player successfully delivered the small piece of garbage he had picked up on the ground while chopping down the tree, and waited expectantly for a while.
Yanagi Renji: "Daffodils, they're hard to find in this season."
Niou Masaharu: "Pfft... fufu, it looks like this guy really likes you, Sanada."
Kirihara Akaya: "Yes, yes... So, Vice Minister Sanada, please don't be angry with him for the time being..."
Everyone was trying to persuade him, but Sanada endured it and looked at the first-year boy with dead eyes as usual.
For some reason, the dark eyes beneath the garbage hat responded to everyone's words and revealed a hint of anticipation... Was it anticipation? Was this kid really feeling anticipation?
Sanada finally pulled off his hat and accepted Mushroom Head's gift with a serious face.
[Sanada Genichiro Favorability +5]
Oh hoo!
It turns out that small pieces of trash can also come in handy!
Players frantically emptied their backpacks of the little junk.
Poke.
Squinty-eyed NPC: "Hmm? It's for me...it's a pine cone."
[Yanagi Renji Favorability +5]
Poke this side too.
Silver-haired NPC: "Eh—I have one too! I can't help but be concerned. What could it be, puri~?"
Silver-haired NPC: "...Sap? It's so sticky... I thought of something interesting again, thanks~"
[Nioh Masaharu favorability +5]
And this.
NPC with glasses: "For me, huh? Glasses... I lost them a while ago. I don't know where you found them, but thank you very much."
[Yagyu Hiroshi Favorability +5]
Even Marui Bunta and Jack Kuwahara, who came with their food trays, received gifts from the first graders, a set of paper and pen each.
Marui Bunta: "Thank you~ I will use it well~"
Jack Sangyuan: "I accepted it, thank you."
[Marui Bunta's favorable impression +5]
[Jack Sangyuan Favorability +5]
Everyone received a gift from the freshman with the mushroom head, which he held on the trash can above his head. Although no one knew where he took it out from or why he had to hold it above his head to give it away.
However, since people are grateful for what they have received, they should be grateful for what they have received. Everyone tacitly ignored this and just treated it as a special ceremony of Kei Yagi.
Kirihara Akaya, who had been waiting for so long, could no longer bear it. He stretched his neck and his face was almost filled with "What about me? What about me?" He was just about to walk up to the first-year and stretch out his hand.
But no—he’s already a senior now! A senior should behave like a senior!
The kelp head is struggling desperately against its own desires.
As for the player, he turned around and put the vegetable stew, omelet, pork chop curry rice and pumpkin soup given to him by the NPC above his head and stuffed them into his backpack.
So touching! Is this the reward for players gaining NPC favorability?
——A huge harvest!! All of them are things that players are reluctant to buy!!
Good brushing! Love brushing! Brush more!!
Marui Bunta and Jack Sawahara watched the mushroom-headed first graders eat the food eagerly and hold it above their heads, afraid that they would miss out if they were too slow.
The intercepting hand stopped halfway, and several people looked at each other.
Thinking of the first graders saying they were orphans, growing their own potatoes, chopping down trees, and robbing food, what a hard life they had to go through before...
Everyone: “…Alas.”
Everyone was silent, only looking at the player with a more complicated look.
And a certain Kelp Head who had been ignored for a long time hesitated: "Is there... another me?"
The player finally remembered the kelp head NPC.
The player met Kirihara Akaya's expectant and sparkling Pikapika gaze and touched his backpack.
The player sends out the last little piece of trash.
Kirihara looked at the scrap of paper handed to him and said slowly: "?"
What the heck is this?! Why are all the seniors like that, but he's like this?!
——It’s not fair! It’s not fair at all QAQ!!
The player sat back down and started packing his backpack.
The others looked at the absent-minded Mushroom Head, and then looked at Chiye with wide-noodle tears.
"Well...how about you open it and take a look?"
"Right, right! Isn't there a surprise hidden in the innermost part? Who knows?"
"Puri~ There's no harm in trying, right~"
So, under the comfort of his seniors, Kirihara Aka sniffed and began to tear the paper ball apart.
One floor, two floors, three floors...
For some reason, as he was dismantling the things, he always had a bad feeling in his heart, as if his instinct was giving him a warning.
Jack Sangyuan had sharp eyes and caught a glimpse of the familiar words, "Hmm? Akaye, it seems your name is written here..."
Marui Bunta read aloud: "Rikkai University Affiliated High School second-year English proficiency test..."
Kirihara Akaya immediately tried to throw the ball back, but it was too late -!
"——Akaya!! You bastard!!"
"QAQ I really didn't throw away the failing test paper on purpose... Wahhhhh Vice Minister Sanada please don't punish me!!"
Kirihara touched the big swelling on his head with a bitter face, and his impression of the player increased by 5.
After leaving the student cafeteria, everyone was still worried about escorting Jibaimao back to the city.
"%￥# should get along well with classmates and not bully them..."
"￥%…*Don't steal your classmates' things. If you're hungry, come upstairs and find us. Any third-grade class is fine. We're all here..."
"@#!%...Don't be late for afternoon training again. If there's anything you need to postpone, please let me know in advance..."
Everyone acted like both a father and a mother, giving earnest advice.
When I opened my eyes, the output object had disappeared from where it was.
Li Haizhong people: "?"
This time, he was really helpless and furious: "No, where did that kid go again!?"
Everyone searched everywhere, but couldn't find it in the grass, in the water, on the roof, or in the classroom!
Nothing at all——!
Where did he go?! Where on earth did this careless guy go?!
"Excuse me, classmate. Did you see a tiny creature this tall...yes, barely under 1.6 meters tall, nearby?"
"No, sorry for disturbing you!"
"Student over there! Did you just see a little guy this tall with a trash can lid on his head running over there? Did you?"
"Oh no..."
After searching for a long time, they finally gathered in front of the teaching building.
Panting, Marui propped himself up on his knees and waved his hands: "I can't find it... I really can't find it anywhere..."
Liu quickly eliminated all the places everyone had searched and calmly scanned the surroundings.
Suddenly, he caught something that had been overlooked all along.
It’s faintly there before my eyes… and I can say it right away when it’s on my lips—
"--boom!"
“——Bang!”
“…clang clang clang…!”
There was a roar like an explosion, and everyone was at a loss, panicked and terrified, their eyes were focused on it.
A hundred meters away, in a corner, there is a trash can that no one cares about.
The tightly closed lid of the trash can suddenly spiraled 360 degrees into the sky.
“…”
"Is it, is it my eyes that are blurring… The trash can lid… flew off?"
"...No, and..."
Marui and Akaya reached out their hands and screamed.
"That damned brat is hiding there!! Catch him quickly! Aa ...
The author has something to say:
----------------------
Bagui: —Who is it! Who dares to plant a bomb in a player's trash can?!
Bagui: Oh, it’s the player himself, then it’s okay (continues to touch) (touch again)
