Chapter 20: - June 15 (Monday): Mai Kaedezaka

On my way to work, the person who kabedon’d me on the train was Kaezaka, Yuika’s senpai, who was also a university student.  

Kaezaka’s tone was a half-hearted mixture of young lady’s language, and she was clearly directing her hostility towards me.

“So, can you answer my question? Are you aware that you are a criminal?”

“I’ve already told you. It’s a misunderstanding. We’re really just talking, nothing more.”

I didn’t expect her to believe me, but it was all I could do.

I couldn’t think of anything better to say.

Kaezaka gave a surprising response.

“I see. Then I’ll take your word for it.”

“…You backed off so easily. Did you come all the way to see me to confirm such a thing?”

“No. I started following you before me and Yuika went to the outlet mall.”

“What?”

So that meant I had been targeted since last Friday.

Not understanding what Kaezaka meant, I paid attention to her words.

“I heard about you from Yuika-san and got her to go to the same movie theater. Thanks to your mention of a minor movie to her, I was able to quickly identify it as the one in the outlet mall.”

“Are you a stalker?”

“No, I’m not.”

Denying the allegations against her, Kaedezaka continued her story.

“And then I saw the face of a man approaching Yuika-san and secretly took a picture of him. From there, I used social media and acquaintances to trace it back to Sasamiya-san.”

“That’s stalking, isn’t it?”

“No, it’s not.”

“There’s no difference.”

I heard from Yuika that she had a forceful personality, but she was a real psychopath.

And her tactics were like a malicious hacker.

As I struggled to keep my expression from turning sour, Kaedezaka spoke without hesitation.

“I was just trying to protect my precious junior. I think it’s a natural human behavior.”

“You have too many problems as a person. Don’t invade my privacy.”

Then she smiled elegantly, covering her lips with one hand.

“Fufu. Very, very, very funny. Who in the world would allow a pervert to claim human rights when he’s attracted to a high school girl.”

“I’m not a pervert, and I’m not blind. Therefore, my human rights are mine.”

At this point, Kaedezaka showed her surprise with a hint of acting.

“My goodness, what a surprise! Do you think you have any human rights? You, a creepy man who delights in buzzing while being trampled by heels and called a pig!?” (T/N: SHE’S SO ANNOYING.)

“I don’t remember experiencing anything like that in the slightest. …”

She gave me a pitying look.

“You poor thing. You’ve lost your memory.”

“Don’t talk about your fake memories as if they were true.”

Every move she made was infuriating me.

I have never met a woman so irritating.

Then Kaedezaka chuckled and stood in front of me.

“Well, I guess that’s enough for today. I’ve accomplished what I came for.”

“…, You just came to mess with me?”

How bored do you have to be to ambush me in the early hours of the morning and do something so childish?

“But be careful, okay? If you do anything strange to Yuika-san, I will not hesitate to impose social sanctions on you, and I will do my best to make sure you are punished.”

“Sounds like you don’t trust me.”

“Men are creatures that can change in a matter of seconds.”

“I hope you’re not one of them.”

“What do you think?… So, Kazuto Sasamiya, I’ll see you soon.”

After saying that, Kaedezaka got off the train.

Even though it was still early in the day, a feeling of exhaustion washed over me.

“I’ve gotten involved with a troublesome person.”

Just as I let out a big sigh, my phone rang.

I wondered if it was Otozui, but when I started up LINE, I found a shocking message on it.

–‘This is Kaedezaka. I’ve exchanged phone numbers, LINE, email, Twitter, and other addresses, so I’d like to say hello. Please do not cut off your location information. So long.’

My hands trembled as I gripped the phone, and a mixture of anger and fear overcame me.

“This is what you call accomplishing your goal. … When did you do that? That psychopathic woman …”
