(First PoV)
I watched in astonishment as Kushida jumped down the stairs on her own.
Did she really just try to frame me that I pushed her down!?
Wait... does she not know about the CCTV cameras?
Perhaps because the first month hasn't arrived yet, so she isn't that cautious, or probably forgot about it in the heat of the moment?
I ignored her unconscious body as I passed by her, and grabbed the unconscious Sotomura.
I checked his condition, and thankfully, there is only a small bump on his head and some scratches and wounds on his hands and legs.
His head is safe.
"Sakura-tan!?"
Oh. He wasn't unconscious. Thank god!
"I am calling ambulance! Just stay still..."
I called the ambulance while tying my handkerchief on his hand-
"Ack!"
He winced in pain.
Oh no. It is swollen...
All because I wanted to use him to get rid of Kushida...
'I am sorry...'
I helped him get up, and supported him to walk out of the building.
"Be careful on the stairs..."
He is heavy... And I am weak...
"Sakura-san! Sotomura-kun!"
Suddenly, Hirata appeared before us with some of his harem.
"Hirata, please help Sotomura! Kushida pushed him down the stairs! And jumped herself to frame me!"
I handed Sotomura to Hirata, but he didn't move downwards.
"Where is Kushida-san!?"
"She fell unconscious after jumping down.
That's not important. Hirata, Sotomura is injured because of her-"
"Please help her get down."
The f*ck is he saying!?
Ambulance siren started ringing, and I sighed in relief.
Let's get Sotomura in the ambulance first. I don't want to be anywhere close to that dangerous psycho. She just jumped down to try to frame me. What if she is just pretending to be unconscious? What if she pushes me down too?
Sotomura is the victim here, Hirata. Let the Ambulance take her."
"Yes! That's right!"
Karuizawa and gang agreed to me and we went down, where the Ambulance arrived and we helped Sotomura get on the stretcher.
Chabashira-sensei also arrived while panting.
"Where is Kushida?"
"In the building."
She nodded to us, and went with some nurses with a stretcher.
I finally found myself calming down as Sotomura was fully awake, laying in the ambulance.
I just did something really terrible today to Sotomura...
"Sakura-san, you head back to the dorms with the girls. I will go with Sotomura to the hospital-"
"I am going too, Hirata. I have to make sure Kushida doesn't try anything against Sotomura. I will make her pay for this."
"Yeah! We will come too! That bitch!"
Karuizawa cursed at Kushida, along with Hirata's rest of harem.
"Only Hirata, and Sakura. You two come."
Chabashira-sensei said as she arrived with Kushida, who was walking while limping.
So she was pretending to be unconscious.
"Sakura-san! I didn't know that you had a talent in voice acting. But why did you push me and Sotomura down!?"
She said with her annoying sweet helium voice.
"Kushida, drop the act. There are CCTV cameras everywhere. I will make sure you end up in mental hospital!
Sensei, I want to sue Kushida for her criminal actions, and issue a restraint order against her! This bitch wouldn't definitely try to push me or stab me even after she is expelled! She belongs to jail! Or mental hospital!"
"Sakura-san, calm down."
Hirata tried to calm me down, but my glare remained focused on Kushida.
Whatever story she is trying to spin won't work.
And it seems she realised it too, and her face turned scary. The face of a psycho.
"Just you wait in the future. I will ruin you."
I felt a chill run down my spine, added to the fact that I am Sakura now. I was actually feeling fear.
"Fufu~ I didn't expect this school to take in criminals."
My head snapped back to the voice.
Koenji was leaning on the Ambulance with his hands crossed, and eyes closed, appearing very cool, if he didn't have the face of a 40 year old man.
What is he doing here?
"Ugly girl. I hope you can fight against Koenji conglomerate. Japan has a very high persecution rate. It doesn't care about evidence. But you have all the evidences stacked against you.
Including threatening someone you just tried to frame in front of so many people, including me.
Your life is ruined. Have a good life in mental hospital. The fees will be taken care of by Koenji Healthcare."
The fear I felt vanished in an instant.
I don't know why Koenji is involving himself, but I am grateful. Suddenly, he doesn't seem to be ugly anymore.
With one of the most powerful conglomerates in Japan against Kushida, there is no way she is getting out of mental hospital and get anywhere close to harm me even after I graduate from the school.
I feel... safe...
--------------------------
After that, we went to the hospital inside the school. Kushida only had a bump on her head, and Sotomura also had minor injuries including some wounds that will heal within a month.
Chabashira-sensei played the CCTV footage in front of us, clearing me of any suspicions of pushing down Kushida.
Sotomura was given all of Kushida's points and free medical care and a free replacement of his phone as compensation, and Sotomura filed an FIR and a formal court case against Kushida even without my persuasion.
I also filled a formal case for issuing restraint order on Kushida.
Perhaps the school wanted to save its reputation, that's why the cases were resolved in mere hours behind closed doors and we were informed that she has been persecuted in a juvenile court and sent to a mental facility.
And Sotomura was given 1 million yen in compensation in real money.
All this happened before the next day began, and Kushida was expelled.
I, Sotomura, Hirata, and surprisingly Koenji who accompanied us, arrived at the dorms at 5 in the morning.
Sotomura was happy about getting real money in his actual bank account, well, his mother's bank account.
Hirata was pretty down after all this, and wasn't really speaking.
And Koenji was smirking and saying something along the lines, 'I only need 2 hours of sleep' while admiring himself in the mirror.
We were given leave for today, and Sotomura for a week. So, I am not going to school today.
"You all will go to school today?"
Sotomura shook his head, Hirata gave us a strained smile and said that he will go to explain the class about the situation, and Koenji said that he doesn't need rest, so he will go. But after going to the gym.
Sigh. I will need some points before I can join the gym...
After we dropped off Sotomura to his dorm room, with Hirata staying with him for a while, I and Koenji started heading to our own rooms.
But Koenji stopped me.
"Sakura girl. Why are you trying to get more points by planning a concert and manga, even though we will get 100,000 points per month? And how did you know about Ugly girl's true nature?"
I froze momentarily as he asked me these questions.
"Umm, isn't it better to have as many points as possible? And Kushida was just a coincidence. We were heading to the rooftop to record my music video at that time. It was just a coincidence."
He flicked his hair with a smirk, displaying his handsomeness even without any sleep.
"If that's what you say. I guess we will meet in the gym after you earn some points, Sakura girl."
Saying that, he went away.
Wait... How does he know that I want to join the gym!?
