The assistant director, Fujita, dressed in a school uniform he had stolen from the changing room, anxiously watched his clock, waiting for the “protagonist” to arrive.
While checking the time, he kept muttering, “The director only knows how to boss me around,” and “Why isn’t Yugi here yet, damn it,” occasionally looking up in one direction.
After dozens of seconds, he looked up again and finally saw a weak figure appear around the corner, panting.
“They’re here, they’re here!” Fujita was quite excited and quickly walked towards the figure that had just appeared, “Yugi, you’re finally here!”
As he spoke, he didn’t forget to lower his voice, afraid of attracting others.
The short figure that appeared was none other than Yugi Mutou.
After the lunch break bell rang, he accepted Jonouchi’s Nth challenge for revenge and played a thrilling duel monsters match.
As expected, with his skilled use of Magical Cylinder, Jonouchi’s Nth challenge failed again.
It was then that Yugi belatedly remembered that someone had apparently asked him to go out during lunch break, saying that “there’s actually a celebrity at school, and he can take me to meet them.”
Remembering this, Yugi politely declined Jonouchi and others’ invitation to “eat lunch together” and rushed to the agreed-upon location.
Seeing that the student named Fujita was indeed waiting there, Yugi, who had been worried he might have been tricked, couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that when he arrived, he would find no one there.
Along with the relief, he also began to feel a sense of anticipation—what kind of celebrity would it be?
Yugi was still holding a bouquet of pre-prepared flowers; he planned to give them to the celebrity he hadn’t met yet, as it would be too rude to come empty-handed.
As for where the flowers came from… the school’s flowerbeds had so many varieties of flowers.
Seeing Yugi arrive, the director, hidden in the bushes, was quite excited and quickly nudged the cameraman squatting next to him with his elbow: “Alright, quickly turn the camera, it’s about to begin!”
Yugi walked up to Fujita, and just as he was about to apologize for being late, Fujita spoke impatiently: “Hey, you’re finally here, Yugi.
You really made me wait a long time~”
One must know that although autumn had arrived, it didn’t mean the summer heat had completely receded; the scorching sun at noon still had some bite, and Fujita was already irritable from the heat.
For this short guy who was about to get beaten without knowing it, Fujita felt no burden whatsoever; after all, in his heart, it was Yugi’s fault for making him wait so long, and he deserved to be beaten.
But Yugi didn’t catch the hint of irritation in Fujita’s words.
He first bowed slightly to him with a face full of apology: “I’m really sorry, Fujita, I didn’t remember this immediately and made you wait.
” Saying this, he looked around, “By the way, Fujita, I remember you said there was a ‘celebrity,’ right?”
“I don’t seem to see anyone else here?”
While Yugi turned his head to look around, a vicious smile appeared on Fujita’s face, but it was quickly masked by a benevolent expression.
He spoke to Yugi, “Actually—”
“No, you have to lean your ear closer, and then I’ll tell you.”
Yugi did as Fujita said, obediently leaning his head closer, wanting to hear Fujita’s whispered secret.
But behind Fujita, where Yugi couldn’t see, his left hand, hidden behind his back, was already clenched into a fist, waiting for Yugi to lean in so he could deliver a fierce punch.
The director in the bushes was extremely excited, even crumpling the paper tube he held in his hand: “Yes, yes, hit him quickly, hit him hard, Fujita.”
Yugi’s head had already leaned in, and the vicious smile on Fujita’s face was no longer hidden.
The fist hidden behind his back smashed towards Yugi’s face!
“Smack!”
The sound of flesh colliding entered Yugi’s ears.
Before he could even see the fist Fujita was throwing at him, he saw a slap suddenly appear on Fujita’s face, who had his mouth close to Yugi’s ear, and he was sent flying.
The director hiding in the bushes was so excited he almost stood up.
He had indeed filmed a scene of “campus violence,” but the problem was, the one being “bullied” wasn’t his designated “protagonist” Yugi Mutou, but Fujita, whom he had sent out to play the “bully”!
“Ugh!” Covering his swollen cheek, Fujita sat up from the ground.
His attention had been completely focused on Yugi just now, and he hadn’t noticed anyone approaching.
Only after being hit did he finally notice someone had come close.
Yugi also turned his head and saw a few familiar faces.
Still not understanding the situation, he asked in confusion, “Jonouchi, Honda, Anzu?
Why are you here, and why did you hit Fujita?”
“Of course, it’s because this guy just tried to hit you~” Someone walked out from behind Jonouchi, holding a new model of card camera.
“Kobayashi, why are you here too?” Yugi was even more confused.
Because he remembered that Kobayashi was supposed to be a rather reclusive person, and few classmates in the class had interacted with him.
Even because of their outstanding looks, Kobayashi and Seto Kaiba were jokingly called the “Iceberg Hotties” duo by the girls.
Why would Kobayashi, who usually had no interaction with him, appear here too?
“You bunch of jerks, how dare you hit me!” Fujita, who had just been ambushed with a slap by Jonouchi, was furious.
He hurled threats while swinging his fists and charged towards Yugi.
However, because his cheek was swollen from Jonouchi’s powerful slap, his threats came out with a strange, laughable accent.
“Hmph, I haven’t had enough yet!” Jonouchi’s face was cold as he charged towards Fujita.
With just one strike, he knocked down Fujita, who appeared powerful on the surface but was actually weak on the inside.
Holding Fujita by the collar with one hand and shaking him vigorously, Jonouchi also made strange “Ora Ora” sounds.
“Seriously, Yugi, if Kobayashi hadn’t told us, you would have been hit just now.” Anzu walked up to Yugi.
Because of Yugi’s absurd height, Anzu, who wasn’t particularly tall, actually had to crouch slightly and lower her head to face Yugi, almost like a kindergarten teacher talking to a child.
Shaking the camera in his hand, Hayato calmly said, “It’s also thanks to Nozaka, ‘Ribbon’; without her camera, I couldn’t have recorded the evidence.”
The camera in Hayato’s hand also had a yellow anti-slip strap and a sticker with the name “Miho” on it.
