152. He’s the Criminal… Huh?
152.
The classroom froze at Yoo Ha-yeon’s words.
“Who did this?”
“… ”
Who did it
At that voice, each student was busy avoiding their gaze. No one came forward.
“..everyone in this class is an accomplice. Can you think of it that way?”
“Oh, that’s not…! I didn’t even know there was such a graffiti..!”
“I, me too! I just found out what you said!”
The students stood up, defending their positions, whether they didn’t want to be unfairly driven.
I didn’t see it, I just found out now, I was fine when I came. Like.
There were no clues to find the culprit of the graffiti.
‘Why does Yoo Ha-yeon look like the most powerful person in this class..?’
Ahn Ji-ho, the class leader, bowed his head, as if praying that this time would pass quickly.
If this is the case, isn’t Ahn Ji-ho not the class leader, but Yoo Ha-yeon the class leader?
The moment when you think deeply about the real world.
A being who evoked the atmosphere of the class appeared through the front door.
“Come on then. School life hard today.. huh? Why is the atmosphere like this?”
Shihwa Shin, the homeroom teacher.
It was the moment when the red-haired woman appeared for a morning inquiry.
She asked with her eyes wide open.
“Hey, Ha-yeon Yoo? What happened to the atmosphere in the class?”
“..that’s it. Teacher.”
Ha-yeon Yoo showed her the desk. Shin Shi-hwa was momentarily surprised, but looked around the class and grasped the students’ expressions. Then he spoke cautiously to us.
“..the day student Sijun Han returned after a long absence. An unfortunate thing has happened. But, as I see it. It wasn’t something my classmates did.”
“How are you sure about that?”
“… Is it the teacher’s heart?”
Sensei Shin Si-hwa smiled sweetly at Yoo Ha-yeon. He seemed to be telling Yoo Ha-yeon not to provoke the students with guesswork.
‘… The presumption of innocence is not correct.’
Ha-yeon Yoo nodded at the teacher’s words and sent my desk to the end of the class.
Only a chair was left in my seat.
“Hey, Yoo Ha-yeon? I am ashamed.”
There is no desk in my class alone.
Unlike the other students, there was only one chair left, so I felt a little embarrassed.
Yoo Ha-yeon saw me blushing and said firmly.
“Hold on. I can’t sit you at a desk like that.”
“I don’t care.”
“I care as a childhood friend.”
No, I don’t care?
As if to refuse my doctor, Yoo Ha-yeon turned her gaze towards the teacher Shin Si-hwa’s classroom.
Not all of the class had arrived, but they seemed to be starting an ordinance.
Than that.
‘Where did one go?’
A classmate who liked the academy class. Her vacant seat remained vacant even after the ordinance began, and I did not hear from him.
‘..Shin Shihwa seems to know, so I’ll have to ask.’
Starting the ordinance without a single objection is the sound of knowing the reason for the absence. After thinking to himself, let’s hear from her why Banhana was absent.
I turned my gaze to Yoo Ha-yeon.
‘Uh…’
Before I ask Mr. Shin Shihwa.
“How dare you write such garbage on Han Si-joon’s desk..? I won’t let you stand still. We’ll find it to the end.”
What should I do with him?
“Eh..”
I looked at Yoo Ha-yeon and sighed.
The classroom didn’t change, but my childhood friend had something strange about it.
..Is this my fault?
***
After morning inspection.
Ha-yeon Yoo led me and started to stir the academy.
“I’m looking for the owner of the graffiti, do I have to move too..?”
“… You accept such malicious graffiti, why are you so carefree?”
“It’s annoying.”
And, it’s not that I can’t find it just because I’m looking for it.
If you go up the testimonies of other students, you will find a clue.
But what are you going to do to find the owner of the graffiti? just fuss? scream?
It only sucks energy. Graffiti was not particularly important to me.
“Being a villain and swearing, that’s just too much. I’d rather take a break while looking for the owner of the graffiti.”
My head hurts because of episode 6…
However, despite my cry, Yoo Ha-yeon steadfastly moved to the other class.
From time immemorial, Ha-yeon Yoo has had a personality that can’t stand injustice.
The moment I followed Yoo Ha-yeon without knowing English.
Ha-yeon Yoo suddenly grabbed the arm of a passing student.
“You there.”
“B, you…?”
“Do you know him?”
Ha-yeon Yoo showed my face to the girl.
“… Don’t stare for too long. Because it looks like I’m going to be angry.”
“Oh, I know. Han Si-jun.. that’s it. right?”
The girl answered with her eyes wide open. Yoo Ha-yeon clapped her hand at the sight.
It meant that I did not see this girl as the master of the graffiti.
“I don’t think he did the graffiti. Let’s go find someone else.”
“What, what? Is that the end..?”
I’m embarrassed.
Yoo Ha-yeon hastily hurried her steps, leaving only those words.
‘… Is this correct?’
It is said that detectives in the old days conducted investigations in this way if there was no evidence.
‘From my point of view. He’s not the culprit.’
Perspectives. Investigation based on sense.
Ha-yeon Yoo seems to be trying to find the owner of the graffiti using such outdated rhetoric.
Perhaps, if I went on like this, I wondered if the culprit would let me know because the culprit was so frustrated at the graduation ceremony.
..we have no choice but to change the method.
“Yoo Ha-yeon.”
“yes? why are you calling A girl who passed by a while ago liked the girl or something like that…”
“Not that. Let’s change the way.”
“..to change the method?”
Yoo Ha-yeon’s black eyes met me. She didn’t seem to understand what I was talking about.
“This method is too old-fashioned. If you want to find the owner of the graffiti, you can’t do it this way.”
“Then what are we going to do? Don’t be shy, say it quickly!”
It’s not fun to speak fast.
The point of the fun is to let them ride the soy sauce to some extent.
I opened my mouth towards Yoo Ha-yeon, who is arguing.
“That’s right…”
I explained how to find the owner of the graffiti to Yoo Ha-yeon, who was concentrating.
The first time she heard it, she made a face that didn’t understand, but as we continued to talk, she understood.
***
“Hey, is it like this..?”
“must. It can be seen that he will definitely come.”
Yoo Ha-yeon squirmed, doubting my plans. However, compared to Yoo Ha-yeon, I had no doubts.
Because.
‘Isn’t it natural for the criminal to come back to the crime scene?’
Although Yoo Ha-yeon scolded me for being old-fashioned. This is the result accumulated by experience, not by sense.
That means, rather than looking at your face and saying you are the culprit, there is more credibility.
I was sure that the owner of the graffiti would reappear in my place, and I was hiding in the cabinet with Yoo Ha-yeon.
“Yeah, but isn’t it too narrow..?”
“It’s not narrow.”
It wasn’t made for people to go in.
It was difficult to move even one arm inside the cabinet. They were in close contact with each other’s bodies, and if there was an uncomfortable part and wanted to move, it was natural to touch the other’s body.
I said to Yoo Ha-yeon, who looked a little uncomfortable.
“I’m glad you’re still skinny.”
“If I had been a little older, I wouldn’t have been able to do this…”
That’s right.
If Ha-yeon Yoo had more weight, I would have avoided this kind of space because I was stimulated.
However, Yoo Ha-yeon’s body was… on the small side. You can choose this place.
“Where are you looking now?”
“… nothing.”
“Are you saying that there is nothing now?”
I heard this.
Yoo Ha-yeon put her weight on me, as if she was going to take revenge on me.
“My, what’s wrong with my heart…!”
“I didn’t say anything..?!”
It is unfair. I’m sorry!
A childhood friend who has reached the level of understanding without speaking.
It was very unfair to read my thoughts clearly.
So Yoo Ha-yeon and I went into the cabinet and waited for the criminal to come. When I’m bored, I sometimes touch Yoo Ha-yeon. I was slightly sweaty, but it was fun to wait.
“..come.”
Yoo Ha-yeon whispers in her ear.
When she finished speaking, the back door of the class opened and the sound of footsteps was heard. Since it was school time, the students who came into this class had a specific purpose. could judge that
‘..Are you a girl?’
A schoolgirl with round glasses looking gloomy somewhere. She didn’t remain in my memory, and she was a girl with the impression that she was seeing it for the first time. She was walking towards my desk with a passive gait.
“I got a new one, so it’s annoying to doodle again…”
“Shhh, quiet..!”
Yoo Ha-yeon hastily covered my mouth with her hand. Was it because there was one such movement?
“… ?”
The girl tilted her head and looked in our direction.
Have you ever heard of it..?
Pounding. pounding.
My gaze is fixed and it feels as if time has stopped.
We prayed that she would move on.
‘Please, I don’t know..!’
The moment we prayed inwardly and felt each other’s bodies getting wet with sweat.
Finally, the gloomy girl turned her gaze away.
‘Whew..’
The plan was almost ruined.
Perhaps Yoo Ha-yeon was also nervous, her dark hair soaked in sweat and stuck to her cheeks.
First of all, I’m going to clean up later. We focused on the girl’s behavior.
“..here. is it.”
A girl who mumbles to herself.
She stared at my desk for a moment.
‘What the hell are you doing?’
Aren’t you supposed to be holding a meteor magic to do graffiti?
As if in response to my words, she started putting her hands in the pockets of her skirt.
‘Caught. bastard.’
Were you the one who scribbled on my desk?
I’m finally getting out of here.
I immediately tried to run out of the cabinet.
“… not. okay.”
But. I couldn’t go out due to Yoo Ha-yeon’s restraint.
Why are you blocking it, Yoo Ha-yeon? The culprit you were looking for is over there.
I had doubts for a moment, but I was able to understand the intention by the next girl’s actions.
‘Isn’t it meteor magic?’
What came out of his pocket was none other than a letter.
It was also a letter sealed with a heart-shaped seal.
“Ah, Eight. I do not know..!”
The gloomy girl exclaimed I don’t know, and put the letter in the drawer of my desk. Then he jumped out of the class as quickly as if embarrassed.
“… What is it?”
Hopefully that letter…
After confirming that the sound of the girl’s footsteps had moved away, I and Ha-yeon Yoo came out and checked the inside of the desk drawer.
There was a letter sealed with a heart.
“Hey, why are you doing this to me?”
“..Han Si-Jun?”
“uh..?”
“He. When did you flirt?”
Yoo Ha-yeon looking at me with a smile.
She was smiling though At the same time, he seemed angry.
“Should we have a conversation..?”
“Come on, wait a minute, Yoo Ha-yeon..! This must be wrong..! It’s the first time I’ve seen him…!”
Yoo Ha-yeon speaks in a trembling tone.
Reluctantly, I was led by her hand and headed somewhere.
It’s a windy rooftop.
It was a rooftop where people didn’t go around.
