Chapter 164 Perpetrators Who Are Broken

Perpetrators Who Are Broken

Manager Tachibana’s PoV

After the hearing, I went back to class. My classmates were worried about me after my absence…

Yokatta, there were no strange rumors. In other words, the fact that the Literature Club is being investigated by the teachers is being kept secret.

All that’s left is to spread information in my favor, use that junior as a scapegoat, and create public opinion. I think this is the best way to change the situation…

It’s a little difficult to use Hayashi-san, a first-year, as a scapegoat, but I plan to target her as well. But for now, my main target is that second-year girl.

She is indeed my main target to use as a scapegoat if the worst comes to the worst. She was my insurance policy from the very beginning. In fact, it wasn’t me who set Amada-san up with Kondo-kun, it was her…

I used to have secret meetings with Kondo-kun, but I always made sure to go to the meeting place separately, so there were never any rumors about me, but she was different. She’s very possessive, and the public knows it. There was always a rumor between her and Kondo-kun, and I heard that he dumped her too.

Yes, I did the right thing. It’s time to use my insurance because now I’m in the worst-case scenario.

To make it more convincing, I’ll also make up a scenario about her…

A shallow woman who was estranged from Kondo-kun betrayed her friends, was moved to do what Kondo-kun wanted, and was complicit in bullying Eiji-kun as ordered…

As for Hayashi-san, let her go a little longer, I’ll prepare a scenario for her.

Don’t worry. The school’s investigation has only just begun. I still have plenty of time.

I shuddered at the thought that the big gamble of my life was about to begin.

I have no other choice, I’m going to be a really bad girl.

Almost unconsciously, I copied what was written on the blackboard into my notebook with a dark smile on my face…

Office of the Prime Minister

I’m working in my office when the secretary comes in, looking nervous.

“Prime Minister-sama, we have a big problem. Please take a look at this…”

He rudely placed a magazine on top of the documents on the desk, which irritated me a little, but I knew there was something important in this situation.

My secretary brought in a weekly magazine that I had never read before. I guess that was because I thought it was vulgar and contained only celebrity scandals. Even so, I never thought that fire would come from such a magazine…

[Councilor Kondo’s Slush Fund in the News. Did It Go to the Prime Minister’s Faction? An Insider Monologue about a “Big Man” Meeting with a Councilor]

Just by looking at the title of the article, I felt a surge of anger.

“What does this mean!? Who is this insider!!?”

The secretary turns blue and starts making excuses.

“I don’t know. It could just be sensationalism. So, Prime Minister-sama, please calm down…”

“Who can calm down in this situation? Look, I don’t care if you put pressure on the police or prosecutors, just finish the investigation quickly! Make Kondo admit everything, make it all his fault, and don’t make the public look my way…!”
