School Of The Elite : S Students Chapter 6
[20.00] February 13.
I saw a very lively class group, they were talking about the rumors that were spreading.
They were telling about the most famous rumor, namely the rumor about a first grader fighting alongside an upperclassman.
Ting nong!!.. Ting nong!! *My room bell rang.
It was too early for Lee Chae to come, but that might also be because I didn't have a schedule with anyone else.
I put my cellphone on the table where I had picked up my cellphone.
I immediately opened the door, grabbed his hand and pushed it down, pushing the door out.
Seeing Lee Chae who was standing in front in school clothes, and also her bag which was still hanging on her shoulder.
"Yahoo~"
She looked embarrassed, with her face slightly red, and his gaze unclear.
She came into my room, I still saw his face, it suddenly changed to shock.
"A colorless room, with an empty scent."
My room doesn't have much property, just a few racing trophies that I put on a board.
"Isn't it normal?"
"Don't know."
It felt like she was very deliberately stopping the conversation, but it was very funny how she stopped the conversation.
"The floor is cold, you can sit on a chair."
After thanking, she immediately pulled a chair at the table and sat on that chair.
"Tea, coffee or cocoa?"
"Mineral water okay?"
"Oh, sure."
"Sorry to bother."
I didn't think she would choose mineral water, doesn't he like the drink I offered?
"No problem, I invited you."
[20.04] February 13.
Carrying mineral water in my right hand and a chess board in my left hand.
She seemed bored, from her slightly interested gaze when she saw the collection of trophies I brought and several photos of my podium.
"Are you looking?"
"Uh–, yeah. I didn't know you were this great, I thought you were an unsocial nerd."
"I'm not as great as you think."
"What do you mean?"
"Forget it, let's practice."
I opened the folding chess table, taught her the layout of chess, the names and movements of each chess piece.
Taught her some openings, and also gave her a chess book containing strategies, how to play and more, I was a little surprised by her, she was able to learn how to play very quickly.
An hour after teaching her, she started to get sleepy and he couldn't focus anymore on what he was doing, we were dueling, I had won seven games and one draw.
His head was already falling up and down due to sleepiness.
"Looks like that's where we'll end up training for today."
She can fall asleep in my room if I force him to continue practicing, finishing the game at 21.14 can make her go back to his room first.
His room was not too far from mine, our rooms were 7 rooms apart.
"Okay, oh yes before that I want to take a selfie with your medal first, is that okay?"
Why does she want to take a selfie with my medal? to show off if he ever got on the podium in one race.
Or she just wants to save it in his gallery.
"Of course."
I saw that he was a little awkward about taking it, he pulled out the medal that was easiest to take, I also saw his cautious eyes, even though he was sleepy.
Chaeyeon took her cellphone from her school jacket pocket, raised the cellphone and pointed it at her face, she posed with a sweet smile.
Rising from her seat, Chaeyeon immediately put on her shoes, she opened the door, looked at me with a slightly interested look.
"Okay, thanks for today."
Chaeyeon came out of my room, I immediately cleaned the table and washed the glass that Chaeyeon was using.
[07.40] February 14.
The weather was colder than yesterday, I brought gloves and a scarf around my neck.
Oh yes, I haven't seen Akane for a long time, where is she now, today she asked me to meet at the library.
I got a lot of messages today, not many, only ten messages.
From Akane who wants to meet in the library, Kim Yeona who wants to meet in the school cafeteria, Lee Chaeyeon who wants to meet in the school garden, I don't know the names of the rest.
Why do they want to meet me on this one day, is today a special day? the fourteenth, right? As far as I know, the fourteenth is the date I rested before race week on Mini GP when I was 15 years old.
I can't search on the internet for what's going on on the fourteenth, maybe I'll ask Chaeyeon.
Wait a minute, I just remembered, the fourteenth is Valentine's Day, I just remembered this, I'm having trouble remembering because I rarely celebrate days like this, I only received one bag full of chocolates usually when I was in middle school.
Ting* Because my cellphone vibrated, I immediately saw the notification.
There was one unanswered message from Chaeyeon, she sent a photo.
I opened the message, I also downloaded the photo before I could see it.
After downloading the photo I could see Chaeyeon's face with two gold medals around her neck, her smile and pose were very beautiful.
Looks like this is the result of his selfie last night.
But why did he send this to me? I didn't ask for this photo.
He messaged again.
Chaeyeon : Grey, save this photo in your gallery, I'm afraid the photo will be deleted in my gallery.
Grey: OK.
It would be a big problem for me if the photos in my gallery were spread, I might be thought to be dating him.
Does he have a plan with this? or he was in the equipment, it could be that someone deliberately asked him to take a selfie with my medal, deliberately leaving it until morning so that I would forget and told Chaeyeon to send it to me because he was afraid, then he waited for me to make a mistake to show him the photo, after finding out I keepthat photo, he caused rumors about this.
But based on my intuition, Chaeyeon is a kind girl, but she is smart and difficult to use.
I don't know what's going on, it's better if I save it in a special folder so it doesn't spread easily.
[13.30] February 14.
I walked towards the cafeteria, with the excuse of being called by Yeona, I was now in the cafeteria, I couldn't see Yeona, but I could see a girl who looked similar to her at a glance from behind... That's right, it was her.
But why does she look like a servant? I was a little curious and tried to peek at what was happening.
From what I observed, there was an upperclassman who told him to bring him food, I didn't hear him very clearly... Stepping closer, I looked away slightly so as not to get suspicious.
"If... you succeed in bringing all the food I will mention, we will give you 60% of the money in our balance."
"J– If it fails?"
"Give us all your balance and yourself."
It was an insane proposition, I could have killed the seven people there without getting hurt, but it was too obvious, and I could have been put on trial for attacking without reason.
"Agree."
Wait? did he agree to that? on what basis did he agree to that? does he need money? or does he just want the money?
Kim Yeona is not a problematic person, she is very kind.
"Haha... OK then."
"We ordered sausages with a little chili sauce, onigiri... etc."
After 2 minutes of hearing all the orders, Kim Yeona with an anxious face walked towards the food ordering place, I also went there to queue behind her.
Luckily they didn't suspect me, or even pay attention to me.
I heard all the orders and also memorized them all.
Now I'm queuing behind Kim Yeona, she doesn't realize I'm behind her.
"Okay, what would you like to order." Said the person who provided the food.
"Uhmm.."
"Sausage with a little chili sauce, two onigiri..." I managed to give all that, Kim Yeona was surprised to see me memorizing it.
"Like– How?"
"Don't worry, don't say I helped you."
The food waiter was a little surprised by this order, she asked what it was for, and Kim Yeona answered honestly, the waiter was annoyed because this was bullying a junior/second generation.
"Thanks Grey."
He went to bring it, helped by two servants.
Now I just need to go on my way, if I'm right I have a score of 1 - 0 with him.
This is a better move, to make her a pawn for my control.
