"Speaking of which—a similar thing happened at my sister's school."

Sumire Tohsaka made black tea for them, and Yumeto Sanaki took a sip from the teacup before continuing with a slight smile.

"Her stationery was lost, and the book borrowed from the school library was gone. She found the book in the sewage pool at school alone. My younger sister, Nobuyuki, is very shy and timid. My child was hit hard by this incident and did not go to school for several days. Later, my brother was with her, and she dared to go to school again. My brother was very angry and made a big fuss at school It's moving."

Maki Yumeto omitted the details of how his younger brother made a fuss at school and how he found out those guys, and only briefly stated the result.

"In terms of results, my brother found out those guys who played tricks on Nobuyuki, and then he found that what happened to Nobuyuki was not an isolated case, and those people were not the only ones who did these things .”

Sumire Tohsaka pondered: "Speaking of which, our school...it seems that I am not the only one who has these things happen. I heard that the second-year cast car senior also encountered similar pranks. He is from the baseball club. The ace player seems to be injured because of this incident, I don’t know if it will affect the subsequent games, everyone has been discussing this incident recently, and the advisor seems to be very worried.”

"Huh? An ace player?" Sanaki Yumeto showed interest in his eyes, "It just so happens that the students who were attacked in my sister's school were also those who were in the A-level. The grades are very good. An honor student, an ace who is active in the sports club, a kid who won a prize in a piano competition... or a kid like Ayumi Nobuo, who is not particularly conspicuous, but is very popular in school as a "writer's younger sister" girl."

"Is it based on attention... No, it shouldn't be such a superficial thing..."

Sumire Tohsaka pondered, and after a few seconds, her eyes slightly widened.

"...Is it 'looking happy'?"

"Miss Haruka has a very good mind." Yumeto Shinaki smiled and changed his address, "Indeed, according to my research, this is a new game called 'Hunting Happiness'. It is only popular among some teenagers. However, judging from this contagiousness, it is only a matter of time before it spreads to a larger community."

He paused, then added.

"Of course, 'Hunting Happiness' is the name I set for this game. In fact, for the people who participate in this game, they are just getting happiness in this way-Miss Haruka, you have heard of 'Happiness' Club'?"

Sumire Tohsaka shook her head in bewilderment.

Yumeto Sanaki turned on the phone, and soon searched for an unremarkable piece of news, and handed the phone to Sumire Tohsaka.

"It was girl A from Sakuragiri High School who first came up with this game. She formed an organization called 'Happiness Club', which recruited more than 20 adolescent girls. This organization is essentially equivalent to a small-scale evil.丨Teach. Then, there is their teaching.”

When Maki Yumeto said this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

"Girl A claims to have discovered the truth - in this world, the total amount of happiness is constant, a small number of people occupy most of the happiness, and only a small share is left to share equally with the rest. Therefore, If you want to be happy, you just have to destroy the happiness of others."

As long as happiness is owned by others, it is impossible for oneself to get it.So if you want to get happiness, destroying other people's happiness is the most efficient way. ①

"It's really a naive idea." Amano Fumyang commented briefly.

"In a sense, it's a very active way of life." Tohsaka Sumire commented without emotion, "Although this kind of positivity goes in the wrong direction."

"So they don't have that 'emotion' in their way of doing things. You know, bullies actually hate the people they're being bullied, and so-called bullying is, in essence, cleaning—hating enough to want to Completely exclude the other party from my field of vision, "It would be great if someone like you didn't exist" "It would be great if I could never see you again"——but such emotions did not appear around Miss Haruka Medium. All actions against you have presented a kind of anonymity and mechanicalness. This is very unreasonable."

Maki Yumeto crossed his hands, supported his chin, and looked at Sumire Tohsaka with a slight smile.

"In fact, no bully can stand up to showing off his power in front of the person being bullied. Bullying is an act of demonstrating one's own authority and re-establishing a hierarchical relationship. However, until now, there has been no No one has come to challenge you."

"Hmm..." Tohsaka Sumire put her finger on her lower lip and thought, "Because in their eyes, am I a very happy person?"

"That's right. Because your happiness value is very high, people who think that their happiness value is not as good as yours will never show off in front of you. According to the theory of that happiness value, they are also afraid of being defeated by you."

"In that case...it's not like there are no such people." Sumire Tohsaka suddenly remembered something.

"What?" Yumeto Maki looked at her with interest.

"The person who came to me to show off." Tohsaka Sumire lowered his eyes slightly, "Sakura-senpai, he has a new girlfriend who came to me to show off. He also said loudly to his teammates in the baseball club What...seems to be saying that I'm a bumbling bitch?"

"I really don't want to admit that I am the same gender and the same species as a creature whose self-esteem can be easily injured." Sanmu Mengren's smile became even worse, "And then, you found out that he is the one who posted posts on campus forums to discredit you ?"

"How do you know?" Tohsaka Sumire was really surprised this time, "Akashi-kun asked someone to check the IP of the forum, and found that Sekura-senpai and those from the baseball club were the ones who posted the post...the school gave them an order Severe punishment is coming."

"It's so easy to guess that it makes people feel pitiful. An idiot is an idiot, and he can't even do such a bad thing."

Maki Yumeto picked up the crutch with one hand, supported the table and stood up.Sumire Tohsaka looked at him, a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

"Mr. Maki?"

"That guy looks like he's being used by others. The guy who designed you is a smart person, and he won't make such low-level mistakes." Sanmu Mengren walked towards the door and waved at her by the way, " I'm going to investigate him and see if I can find some clues along this line."

He turned around and gave her that trademark, slightly sarcastic smile.

"Anyway, I accept your favor, and this is also an interesting case. I will help you find out to the end. By the way, if you find any relevant traces at school, please remember to tell me."

He paused meaningfully.

"I'm really curious, what kind of person is the one who laid out this spider web."

"Then, please Mr. Maki."

Sumire Tohsaka bowed his head to Yumeto Sanaki in thanks.After the young ghost writer left on crutches.Fumyo Amano also drank the last sip of coffee and put the coffee cup on the saucer.

"I will discuss with the editorial department how to deal with centralized attacks on the Internet."

Amano Fumyang looked at her with a calm tone.

"For the time being, don't post comments on these issues on the Internet, leave it to me to deal with. At this time, you have to rely on adults."

"What a surprise."

Sumire Tohsaka said softly.

"I thought you would let them attack me like you did to Miss Ye Zi, so as to stimulate my desire to create."

Just like Fumyo Amano has always done with Yoko Sakurai.

"For creation, I can still distinguish clearly what is 'medicine' and what is 'poison'." Amano Fumyang said lightly, "Even if I am, I will not allow such a thing that is only harmful to your career. Behavior."

"Then, I'll rest assured and leave it to you."

Sumire Tohsaka nodded.

In any case, Fumyang Amano is the most reliable at this time.As a top-notch editor who has produced many famous writers, his skill is trustworthy.

Then, just as Tohsaka Sumire guessed, the bad comments about herself on the Internet were quickly dealt with.

After all, the world operates according to the rules of money and capital.Amano Fumyang's handling of things is very superb. He knows the essence of cold treatment. After spending some contacts and means, he successfully suppressed the spread of those negative rumors to a minimum.At the same time, he also invited well-known seniors to write reviews for Asahi Haruka's new picture book, perfectly suppressing those malicious negative reviews with positive reviews.

And at school, with the public punishment of Sekura and his party posted——Tohsaka Sumire knew that the injury of the baseball team’s ace caster and Kan was also manipulated by these people—the prank on Tohsaka Sumire It was reduced a lot for a while.

Tohsaka Sumire specially thanked Akashi Seijuro for this.After all, Sekura is a young man from a rich family. If Seijuro Akashi, who is even more wealthy and powerful, insisted on making the school public and severely punishing Sekura as the president of the student council, these two incidents would probably have disappeared.

However, Tohsaka Sumire didn't think the matter would end there.

While the pranks against Tohsaka Sumire suddenly dropped, it was as if they had found a new hunting target. This time, Karasawa Yuho became the target of the attack.

When school was over, Sumire Tohsaka lingered in the studio for a while, and when she put down her brush, she realized that it was already sunset.

There are not many people left on campus.As she was walking out, she accidentally found a person by the locker.

"Student Tang Ze?"

"Ah, Tohsaka-san. Didn't you leave too?"

The girl turned her face, and those cat-like eyes looked at her.

Sumire Tohsaka opened her eyes wide in surprise.

"Student Tang Ze, your leg..."

"This..." Tang Ze Xuesui glanced at his swollen right leg, which had scratched a large piece of skin, "Someone pushed me when I was going down the stairs, but I didn't see who it was, and the treatment of the wound was delayed." After a while, I reached this point before I knew it.”

"I see." Tohsaka Sumire's eyes stopped at Karasawa Yukiho's locker, "This..."

Tang Zexuesui's locker was also vandalized.She saw that the leather shoes inside were so dirty and torn that she couldn't wear them at all.

"I don't know who did this."

Tang Ze Xuesui, wearing indoor shoes, sighed slightly.

"Really... I have to buy new shoes in this way. If I go home like this, my mother will be worried."

Those cat-like eyes turned to Tohsaka Sumire, the girl supported the locker and supported her right leg, showing a slightly distressed expression.

"May I trouble Tohsaka-san?" she said softly, "It seems a bit too forced to walk like this."

For some reason, Karasawa Yukiho's neck drooped because of embarrassment, reminding Tohsaka Sumire of the posture of a female spider before predation.

"Okay."

She took a little step forward, supported Tang Ze Xuesui, and then quietly stared into her eyes with those jewel-like green eyes.

"However, Tang Ze, can you tell me...why do you hate me so much?"

The so-called bullying is actually cleaning up in essence—hating to the point of wanting to completely exclude the other party from your vision, hoping that the other party does not exist at all.

No matter what Sumire Tohsaka thinks, he hates her so much... In this school, Karasawa Yuho is the only one.
