Welcome To Freak Class! Chapter 9

“Us.h.i.+ Hiros.h.i.+?!” Yuu's jaw dropped as he stared at him.

'Why is he here?' He secretly followed Us.h.i.+ Hiros.h.i.+, who didn't seem to have discovered him.

Us.h.i.+ Hiros.h.i.+ walked straight on, looking at his phone as if he was going to meet someone. Yuu followed him into an alley, only to find that Us.h.i.+ Hiros.h.i.+ had stopped in front.

“Hey, Us.h.i.+?” Hearing his name, Us.h.i.+ Hiros.h.i.+ turned around and was startled when he saw Yuu.

“Why are you here?” He seemed surprised and nervous. “Go back. You shouldn't be here!”

“What about you then?” Us.h.i.+ didn't reply but asked him to leave instead.

Just as Yuu was about to leave, he felt a shock on his head and his ears began to ring. His left eye was dyed red before everything turned black.

…

…

“Mmm…” Yuu slowly opened his eyes and found himself in his room.

“You're awake.” He turned to look and immediately sat up.

“Takamaru?”

Seeing that he was awake, Takamaru closed her book and asked, “Do you remember where you've been?”

“I remember I went to the convenience store and saw Us.h.i.+ Hiros.h.i.+. Then, I followed him into an alley. I don't remember what happened after that.”

“Do you know that you were attacked?” Takamaru walked up to him. Yuu seemed to be unaware of his own attack.

*In the alley*

When Yuu was about to turn to leave, he was beaten with a bat and fell to the ground.

“Hey!” shouted Us.h.i.+. There were several high school students behind Yuu, who seemed to be looking for a fight with him.

“You're the number one fighter in Yuri Academy, Us.h.i.+ Hiros.h.i.+. I want to fight you.” The boy with the bat kicked Yuu aside and walked up to Us.h.i.+.

Us.h.i.+ clenched his fist. Before the boy could fight him, he was knocked to the ground by Us.h.i.+.

“I fight to the end.” Us.h.i.+ held his fist and crooked his finger at them, his expression gloomy. 

In a short while, Us.h.i.+ had beaten the boy and his lackeys half dead. He carried Yuu over his shoulder and walked back to the academy. He went in through the back door and was seen by Akamatsu, who walked out from the third floor. Akamatsu quickly ran to get the first aid kit to bind up Yuu's head, then carried him back to his room.

*Back in Yuu's room*

“I see.” Yuu nodded. Takamaru flicked his forehead with her fingers.

“Ouch!” 

“Mmm, it looks like you can still feel pain. I'll go back to my room first.” Takamaru picked up her book, opened the door and left.

“Should I go to school with my head bandaged?” Yuu touched the bandage around his head and lamented his misfortune.

It was already evening by the time Yuu left his room. He went to take a shower on the second floor and happened to meet Akamatsu.

“Oh Yuu, is your head okay?” 

“It's fine.” Yuu touched the bandage on his forehead and walked to the shower room beside Akamatsu.

“Fortunately Hiros.h.i.+ was there, or else you would be dead.” Akamatsu breathed a sigh of relief.

“Huh? Why?”

“Actually, Hiros.h.i.+ is the number one fighter in the academy,” said Akamatsu with one eye closed. His words greatly surprised Yuu.

“It doesn't look like it, does it?” 

Yuu nodded.

“In fact, before he was the number one fighter, he was a taekwondo expert. His grandfather is a famous taekwondo coach. Hiros.h.i.+ is actually a very nice person.” Akamatsu began his storytelling.

“Then why did Us.h.i.+ become the number one fighter?”

"Because, Hiros.h.i.+ once put someone in the hospital.”

“What?! What happened then?”

“Hiros.h.i.+ was scolded by his grandfather and they began to drift apart.” 

“Every family has its own problems.” Yuu lowered his head and let the water from the shower head wet his head.

“Okay! I'm done!" Akamatsu stood up. Yuu turned off the shower, changed into his clothes and left as well.

“Hey, dinner is ready.” Us.h.i.+ brought out some dishes from the kitchen. Everyone else was already sitting in their places.

“Yeah!” Akamatsu shouted with his hand raised. Yuu frowned slightly, sighing as he looked at Akamatsu. However, he didn't notice that Takamaru was staring at him as usual.
