COTE: Bag And Love System

The two of them were entangled in a fight in an instant. Ibuki kept remembering what Hashima Hikaru had told her yesterday, so she didn't directly face Ryuen's attack. Instead, she kept dodging by relying on her body's reaction ability, and in the process, she secretly used her leg abilities to counterattack.

　　 Before parting ways last night, Hashima Hikaru added one last sentence.

　　 "Ibuki, although we've asked you to carry out this plan, you must remember that if Ryuuen really wants to hurt you during the fight, you can resist."

　　 "We don't need you to get hurt for the plan to succeed. After all, this operation is about helping each other, not ordering you to do things."

　　 After hearing this, Ibuki immediately said that her leg skills were very powerful, and if it really came to that, she could completely counterattack with her legs.

　　 Who would have thought that that sentence would make Hashima Hikaru's eyes light up immediately? The boy immediately demonstrated to Ibuki with the camera that if she really used her leg skills, she could move the captured image upwards, showing only her upper body, and she could still accuse Ryuen of violent behavior.

　　 The four students of Class B were currently in the science classroom, and they were all nervously looking at the images captured by their cell phones.

　　 Ryuen's fierce fighting style made everyone's faces look solemn, but what was even more surprising was Ibuki's physical reaction ability. Almost twenty seconds had passed from the beginning until now, and the man in the image had not touched the girl's body even once.

　　"You don't want to fight? Why are you hiding all the time?"

　　 Ryuuen gasped and angrily scolded Ibuki on the opposite side.

　　 From the moment the woman finished threatening until now, she had no real intention of fighting. She kept dodging and using leg techniques to stop his steps, making it impossible for him to control her at all.

　　"You don't want to beat me? How can you win if you can't even touch me?"

　　 As expected, a complex expression appeared on Ibuki's smiling face. Not only was there anger, but there was also a hint of fear in her eyes. Although her performance was poor, from an outsider's perspective it seemed as if she was constantly avoiding her opponent's fists because she was afraid.

　　"Tsk, I knew you wouldn't fight me obediently."

　　 At that moment, Ryuen, who had a fierce look on his face, suddenly stopped his hand. The corners of his mouth curved dangerously and he slowly uttered a sentence: "From the beginning, when you invited me, I felt that something was wrong. If you really didn't like me, you would have done so a long time ago. There was no need to really invite me."

　　 "I don't know what you want to do, but since I'm here today, I must defeat you completely!"

　　 "What do you mean by that?"

　　 When Ibuki saw Ryuuen suddenly stop, a feeling of foreboding instantly enveloped her head.

　　 -Komiya, Ishizaki, you can come out now!

　　 A sinister smile appeared on Ryuen's face and he shouted loudly towards the front.

　　 The next moment, two boys in school uniforms suddenly appeared behind Ibuki. Each of them had a half-smile on their face and it was obvious that they had been ambushing her.

　　 "What!"

　　 Ibuki's face was filled with surprise and anger, she didn't expect Ryuuen to bring others with him. If it was a one-on-one fight, she wasn't afraid of Ryuuen, but if there were three boys, the girl might not be safe.

　　 "What are you doing!!?"

　　 Just as the two boys were approaching Ibuki and were about to attack, the door to the science classroom suddenly opened.

When everyone in Class B heard Ryuen shouting out other people's names, they were instantly shocked by his cleverness, but time waits for no one. Without hesitation, Hashima Hikaru immediately handed the phone to Ichinose who was beside him.

　　 "Ichinose-san, stay here and don't move. We'll be leaving right away!" he said in a deep voice.

　　 After saying this, the boy quickly opened the door to the science classroom with Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa. He never imagined that Ryuen actually had a trick up his sleeve, taking everyone by surprise.

　　 "Who?"

　　 After hearing an unfamiliar voice, Ryuuen immediately looked in the direction of the voice and saw three children walking out of the science classroom.

　　 "Who are you?"

　　 "I was wondering who you three are. Are you three going to join forces to attack a girl? Aren't you ashamed?" Shibata, who had a strong sense of justice, spoke first. He glared at Ryuen angrily and said, "Believe it or not, I'll go report it to the teacher!"

　　 "We are students from the first year B class. We just received a request from our teacher to go to the science classroom to pick up the equipment we'll be using tomorrow, and then we saw you." Kanzaki Ryuji was also very angry: "What class are you from? Why are you bullying others?"

　　 "It's none of your business, don't bother us."

　　 As a follower who had been tamed by Ryuuen, Ishizaki Daichi spoke in a very aggressive tone. Although he saw three boys coming out of the classroom, he didn't panic at all.

　　 As a bad boy, he was involved in many group fights and didn't care about the number of people in the fight.

　　 "If we don't leave, you won't fight us either."

　　 A smile appeared on Hashima Hikaru's face. After leaving, he calmly exchanged glances with Ibuki, who was standing next to him, and nodded to indicate that he had successfully taken the photograph.

　　 So today's mission has really ended here.

　　 "Fight me if you want. I'm not afraid of you!"

　　 Ishizaki's voice was still loud, but the next moment he heard Ibuki next to him speak.

"Okay, stop doing meaningless things." Ibuki coldly looked at Ryuen beside her and said as if she had given up on resistance, "Ryuen, you win. I won't oppose you anymore. If you want to be the class leader, then so be it."

　　 "Huh, it would have been nice to do this earlier."

　　 Ryuen acted as if he hadn't even noticed Hashima and the others standing beside him. After hearing Ibuki's affirmative answer, he immediately turned around and walked away arrogantly.

　　 The two followers, Ishizaki Daichi and Komiya Yego, naturally followed closely behind, and the three of them quickly walked down the stairs together.

　　 After their figures completely disappeared, Hashima Hikaru looked at Ibuki and softly said, "Thank you, Ibuki-san."

　　"It's good that it's done. What should we do next?" Ibuki crossed her hands in front of her chest, looking very calm.

　　"It's very simple. Ibuki can take this video directly to the student union to make accusations. The video we just recorded is very good. Ryuuen will definitely not escape the punishment of suspension."

　　When Hashima Hikaru opened the clear photograph taken with her mobile phone, her expression couldn't help but brighten.

　　 Ichinose handed Ibuki the photograph taken with Hashima Hikaru's mobile phone. The girl looked in the photograph with an angry expression and a hint of fear from time to time. Although it was fake, it was enough.

　　 Shibata still felt a little upset after Ryuen and the others left. I didn't expect the other party, being a man, to challenge a woman to a fight and even bring helpers with him. How shameless!

　　 "He's a guy who will do anything to achieve his goals," Ibuki handed the phone back to Ichinose, a look of disdain on her face, "It's consistent with his usual behavior to behave this way."

　　 "Luckily we're all here, if not I don't know what will happen."

　　 Hashima Hikaru took control of the conversation at just the right moment and looked at Ibuki, who was standing next to her, "Ibuki-san, the angle of this video is very good. Even if you only used your leg skills to fight back, it doesn't matter. That part wasn't captured."

　　 "We can go directly to the student union to file your complaint. You should know how to get to the student union, right?"

　　"I don't know. I've never been to the student center."

　　"It doesn't matter. There's a detailed description of the place in the school brochure. I'll join you later."

　　 Hashima Hikaru thought that there was no need for so many people to go together. It was enough for him to go with Ibuki. Too many people would arouse the suspicions of the student council.

"Can I go with you?" Ichinose Honami raised her small hand, her eyes shining and she looked very expectant.

　　 "No need, just let him and I go."

　　 At that moment, the indifferent Ibuki expressed her opinion contrary to her usual behavior, which left Hashima, who was watching, a little confused.

　　 What's going on?

　　 "Okay." Seeing Ibuki's quick rejection, Ichinose Honami's blue eyes darkened for a moment, but she still forced a smile onto her face and said, "Then I'll wait for your good news."

　　 "Don't worry, I'll bring you a result that will satisfy everyone."

　　 Hashima Hikaru smiled and nodded towards Ichinose and the two boys beside her, then walked down the stairs with Ibuki.

　　 "Ichinose-san, why won't Ibuki-san let you go with him?"

　　 Shibata, a carefree man, was a little confused about the current situation, so he asked directly.

　　 But what he didn't expect was that the normally gentle Ichinose now had a very solemn expression on her face, and her beautiful eyebrows were filled with sadness, as if she didn't hear his words at all.

　　 "What more can we ask for? Let's look forward to Hashima-san's triumphant return."

　　 Kanzaki Ryuji's thoughts were obviously more delicate than Shibata's. She immediately reached out and took the other's arm, and suggested to Ichinose with a smile, "Well, Ichinose-san, we're leaving first. Do you want to come with us?"

　　 Hearing this, the girl silently shook her head. After Kanzaki and Shibata Sa left, Ichinose stood there blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.

　　 "What's going on? Is there something going on between them that I don't know about?"

　　 "Didn't I meet Ibuki-san first? Hashima-san wanted to do..."

　　As her thoughts raced, Ichinose Honami's heart was already in a mess; she didn't expect things to develop like this.

　　 After a long while, the girl silently reached out and caressed her cute face, then walked out.

A lot of things have happened today, and you might need to digest them carefully.

　　 -------

　　On the other hand, Hashima Hikaru was walking with Ibuki on the way to the student council, and he still had doubts in his mind.

　　 The boy couldn't understand it, didn't Ibuki know Ichinose first? And we're all girls, so no matter how you think about it, it would be better to be with her.

　　 At that moment, the short-haired girl in front suddenly stopped, looked at Hashima Hikaru's face, and asked.

　　 "Hashima-san, you're actually the leader of class B, right?"

　　 "No, our class leader is Ichinose-san."

　　 Hashima Hikaru smiled lightly. He probably knew why the other party didn't let Ichinose Hoba come. It turned out that she had something to ask him.

　　 "But from what I've seen, it's evident that it depends a lot on you. Why?"

　　 Ibuki's observation and analysis skills are not weak, and she even has a very mature way of thinking, after the talk last night and the execution of the secret filming plan today.

　　 She could see that among this group of Class B students, the one headed by Hashima-san in front of her was the one making all the decisions, and the others were just cooperating.

　　 "Well, this question is a bit complicated to explain," Hashima Hikaru's expression didn't change much, and she explained to Ibuki indifferently, "What I can tell you now is that Ichinose-san is indeed our class leader. This is acknowledged by everyone."

　　 "As for the rest of the class information, I can't answer you right now."

　　What this sentence means is that Ibuki should give up on the idea of finding out. This will be good for everyone. After all, she and Hashima Hikaru are still partners at present.

　　"Tsk, don't think I'll believe everything," Ibuki didn't care at all about Hashima Hikaru's insinuation and asked with a sneer on her face, "You actually lied to me yesterday, didn't you?"

"I tricked you?"

　　 "As for the fact that the class leader can use everyone's private points, even though I'm a first-year student, it doesn't mean that I'll believe everything that others say."

　　 Ibuki looked straight into Hashima Hikaru's eyes and said in a very loud tone, "But do you know why I agreed to your plan even after realizing that you were lying to me last night?"

　　 "Because you're angry with Ryuuen."

　　 There was still a smile in Hashima Hikaru's eyes, but he had a new understanding of the short-haired girl in front of him.

　　 She's definitely not an easy person to deal with.

　　 Although she was assigned to Class C, Ibuki's overall qualities weren't bad, and her analytical and observation skills were quite good.

　　 Is it because I'm not studying well?

　　 "That's right. Even though I know you're lying, it's precisely because I'm so unhappy with Ryuuen that I want to suspend him from school."

　　 Ibuki looked at the boy in front of him and asked again, "And you haven't finished what you said yesterday. You said that after Ryuuen is suspended, you'll discuss something with our Class C."

　　 "It's not another conspiracy, right? If it happens again, I'll never accompany you!"

　　 "Don't worry, that matter will definitely benefit both classes," Hashima Hikaru shrugged, a serious look on her face, "I hope you don't have any misunderstandings about me. I'm not someone who likes to make jokes."

　　 "If you say so, then so be it."

　　 Ibuki Mio didn't want to continue chatting with him, so she turned around and continued walking forward, but after walking a few steps she turned back and added.

　　 "Come on. Aren't we going to accuse Ryuen? Why are you standing there?"

　　 "OK."

　　 Hashima Hikaru nodded slightly and quickly followed Ibuki's footsteps.

　　 "Remember, we have to make sure to give our statements before we enter, so that we don't miss anything."

　　 "Don't worry, I care more about the outcome this time than you."

　　 After walking for a while, Hashima Hikaru and Ibuki finally arrived at the fourth floor of the teaching building where the student union was located.

　　 From the outside, this place looks no different from an ordinary classroom. There is a metal sign on the wall with the words "Student Union Office" written on it. It looks like someone cleans it frequently and the surface of the sign looks bright and clear.

　　 "Boom boom boom!"

　　 Hashima Hikaru raised his hand and knocked on the door.

　　 "Come in."
