Tokyoites don't have martial virtue

"This is disgusting, I can barely eat anymore."

"Stop! Stay away from Mizuhashi-kun!"

"I'm going to find the teacher!"

The whole class panicked, and everyone looked at each other, seemingly searching for the person who had just spoken.

Outside the classroom, Karasu Saki was operating a miniature recorder while secretly filming the scene inside the classroom with a camera.

Niu Cun shouted nervously, "Who was talking just now? Come out!"

Suddenly, a male student who had been watching seemed to have had enough and reluctantly spoke up: "They're right, you really should... stop bothering Mizuhashi-kun, okay?"

Immediately afterward, another girl reluctantly spoke up, "Mizuhashi-kun... he's quite pitiful..."

"What's it to you?!" Michi retorted without any politeness. "Don't you dare interrupt me, or I'll get my father to expel you all!"

Upon hearing this, the classroom immediately fell silent again. No one dared to speak again, and they all turned their heads away as if it were none of their business.

Because Xiujin Academy is just a low-end private school, most of the students come from families that may have some money, but have almost no influence. Naturally, they would be afraid of being threatened by classmates with strong family backgrounds.

Seeing this, Karasuka Sakifumi, who was hiding outside the classroom, began to get nervous.

In her script, these students are spurred on by the "leader effect" and begin to reprimand the two bad students.

However, she overlooked an important condition: when the perpetrator is too powerful, bystanders, even if encouraged, will not dare to intervene.

After dealing with the other students, the two students continued to harass Mizuhashi. Although Mizuhashi Eiji was terrified, there seemed to be a glimmer of hope in her eyes; she still believed in her seniors.

"What should I do..." Karasu Sakifumi's heart sank, and her guilt swelled to the point of almost overflowing.

If the situation is allowed to continue to develop, it will only exacerbate the conflict and make Mizuhashi's situation even worse.

In desperation, she could only call Kyushu Makoto for help, her voice trembling slightly: "I'm sorry! My plan has failed..."

Kyushu Makoto, who was eating in the classroom, received a phone call and his expression immediately turned serious.

Last night, Makoto Kyushu was also worried about the success of the plan, so he discussed an "insurance plan" with his senior, Karasawa.

"Don't worry, you've already tried your best," Kyushu Makoto comforted him over the phone. "Now it's my turn to do it."

He put away his phone and strode to the classroom podium.

During lunch break, most of the students in their class went out, leaving only a third of them in the classroom.

"Dear students, I'm sorry to disturb your lunch break!" Kyushu Makoto slammed his hand heavily on the desk and shouted loudly.

"I need your help!"

Upon hearing this, the students all showed expressions of fear and unease, after all, no one dared to disobey this "single-person dismantling department" mad dog, Xiu Jin.

Kyushu Makoto's expression was grave as he continued, "Please set off immediately for Class 2, Grade 1!"

At the same time, "Bad Guy Three" also stood up and egged them on, saying, "Don't just sit there! Get moving!"

A dozen or so students, with bewildered expressions, lazily made their way to the first-year floor.

......

In the classroom of Class 2, Grade 1, two bad students were completely enraged and were still making things difficult for Mizuhashi Eiji:

"Have you taken the wrong medicine today? How dare you talk to us like that!"

The students around them all turned their faces away in distress, but no one dared to say anything to stop them.

Eiji Mizuhashi was nearing his limit; his body was trembling violently.

Just then, the classroom door was pushed open forcefully.

"You two, isn't that enough?" Kyushu Makoto walked in, staring at the two of them with an angry look.

The two bad students recognized him and immediately laughed and mocked, "Yo yo yo~ Isn't this the 'senior' who protects Mizuhashi?"

"I'm protecting him, so what?" Kyushu Makoto sneered, "Let go of Mizuhashi-kun now!"

"What are you saying, senpai?" A mischievous student hugged Mizuhashi Eiji even tighter and laughed:

"We're just friends hanging out together~ Aren't you being a bit nosy, senior?"

"Do you think I'm stupid?" Kyushu Makoto glared at him. "He's clearly very unwilling!"

"What if I don't let go?" Michi sneered. "You should know that my father is a member of the Kanagawa Prefectural Assembly, right?"

"So your dad can get me fired with just one word?" Kyushu Makoto retorted with a disdainful sneer.

"He might fire me, but does he have the power to fire all of us?!"

After he finished speaking, the whole class realized that there were more than a dozen senior students standing busily at the classroom door.

Not only that, but more curious students in the corridor were attracted by them, and the crowd quickly filled the classroom.

Kyushu Makoto's tactic was a classic case of "borrowing the tiger's might." Since one leader wasn't enough, he'd drag five or even ten leaders along with him! He wanted to see if this pitiful, pathetic "flock" would remain silent any longer!

"I told some of your classmates about your behavior, and they're all outraged and want to condemn you!" Kyushu Makoto spread his arms wide, ignoring the confused looks from the students outside, and reprimanded them imposingly.

"Not only do I dislike you, but so many students in our school can't stand it anymore! You are the black sheep of our school, so repent right now!"

Seeing that senior students were standing up for him at the door, the other students in the classroom also began to condemn him one after another:

"Please release Mizuhashi-kun!"

"The seniors saw it all, it's so embarrassing!"

"Stop it...you've really gone too far."

Taking advantage of the situation, Kyushu Makoto pushed the two troublemakers aside, put his arm around Mizuhashi Eiji's shoulder, and stared at them arrogantly:

"Listen up, Mizuhashi is my beloved, and you two can't... steal my love away from me."

"Ugh..." The two bad students turned pale with anger, and one of them retorted angrily, "You don't actually like Mizuhashi, do you? He's a boy, you're disgusting!"

Upon hearing this, Eiji Mizuhashi, fearing damage to his senior's reputation, hurriedly and anxiously defended himself:

"No, actually I'm a girl!...Huh?...Wait...Why did I just say that...?"

"Huh, Mizuhashi is a girl?" a student exclaimed in surprise.

"Mizuhashi-kun, show me your student ID." Kyushu Makoto simply went along with it.

Eiji Mizuhashi hesitated for a moment before mustering the courage to pull his student ID from his pocket and show it to everyone: "I... my real name is Eiki Mizuhashi... because I was often bullied in junior high... that's why I pretended to be a boy..."

Upon seeing the student IDs, the classmates all displayed incredibly varied expressions:

"There really are girls who dress up as boys to go to school!"

"No wonder I always felt that Mizuhashi looked like a girl."

"Good heavens! Upon closer inspection, Mizuhashi-kun is actually quite cute!"

"So that means... Ushimura and Michi have been bullying girls all along?"

"Hey~ Isn't that a complete scumbag?"

"What kind of skill is it for a boy to bully a girl?"

"Isn't this considered sexual harassment?"

"..."

The gossip from the crowd completely humiliated the two troublemakers. Michi, his face ashen, shouted angrily:

"Shut up! Shut up! My father is a county councilor! Don't you all want a peaceful life?!"

"You're really shouting with great energy, Michi-kun~" Just then, Karasukawa Saki walked in with a camera, smiling: "You recorded that too!"

"Ya Chuan? What are you doing here!" Mi Chi gasped in surprise.

After examining the video, Karasu Saki examined it and said with great emotion, "If I hand this video over to a reporter I know and have them publish it online, that Congressman Mitch will probably be in trouble, right?"

"Shocking News! Congressman Mitchell's son is bullying and harassing female classmates at school!"...Something like that?

Karasu-senpai's words almost drained Michi's last bit of strength, causing him to kneel on the ground in fright.

The online public opinion in Wano Country is terrifying; it can even significantly impact the approval ratings of political figures. If Karasukawa-senpai were to do this, her father's reputation and career would certainly suffer, and those despicable, unscrupulous reporters, like vultures, would flock to him and harass him relentlessly.

"In short, I've recorded everything that happened today, and I will now hand the evidence over to the school." Karakawa Sakifumi put away her camera and said:

"With many classmates present as witnesses, you have no room for further denial."

All the condemning gazes were focused on the two bad students. They hung their heads in despair, knowing there was nothing they could do.

This is a "collective trial." As the saying goes, "the law does not punish the masses," when a "group" does bad things together, no one in that group can be punished.

In other words, if a "group" acts chivalrously together, no one in the group needs to worry about being retaliated against.

“Let’s try to make use of the power of the ‘collective’ once in a while,” Kyushu Makoto recalled what Karasukawa Sakifumi had said yesterday.

"Mizuhashi-kun, it's all over." Kyushu Makoto patted Mizuhashi-kun on the back, comforting him softly.

"Thank you, senpai..." Mizuhashi leaned weakly against him and whispered, "I'm so sorry... my legs are a little weak, can I lean on you for a little longer?"

"Thank you for your hard work." Kyushu Makoto hugged her tighter to prevent her from falling.

"It's nothing..." She smiled slyly, burying her flushed cheeks in the boy's chest, making a barely audible sound:

"Senior...you really put my mind at ease."
