The Inquisitor is a Manga Artist
Chapter 28
"Has the competition started?!"
Amidst the cheers,
Chiaki Chihara squeezed forward slightly and saw a tall figure.
"Ah,
It's Chihara. "
Purple Yuan moved slightly to the side, leaving a spot for Chiaki Kihara that was neither too big nor too small.
"The competition is about to start.
You're here just in time. "
"Yo, Kochiaki!
You're finally here!
I thought you wouldn't show up at all! "
Ryota Hwang Se patted her shoulder.
She moved closer as if they were close friends.
"Oh right!
Kochiaki has a competition in the afternoon too, right?
I heard it's a women's race!
Is Kochiaki good at running? "
"She's alright," Chiaki Chihara said ambiguously.
"That's weird.
I can't open the bag of chips. "
Zi Yuan took out a bag of chips and was about to open it.
He realized that he couldn't open it no matter how hard he tried.
"You can just use scissors or something to cut it open … If only Little Green was here.
I remember that he always carries scissors with him, "Ryota Hwang Se mumbled softly and looked at the disciplinary officers.
"Do any of you have scissors or something like that?"
"I think I do …"
Umeko Kawashita hesitated for a moment.
She took out a utility knife from her pocket and handed it to Zi Yuan.
With the help of the utility knife, Zi Yuan finally managed to cut open the bag of chips.
"It's better not to open it directly.
You'll spill the chips on the ground, "Ryota Hwang Se said with a headache.
"Thank you!
I'll return this to you. "
"You're welcome."
At this time, Akashiji Seijuro's competition had already ended.
There was no doubt that Chi Si was number one.
However, this competition seemed to be missing someone.
"Hahaha,
I accidentally twisted my ankle when I came to school, so I forfeited. "
That's why I gave up, "Kuanzhi Kuandou said with a smile.
"Well, even if we compete, there's no way we can win.
After all, a scum like me.
He doesn't deserve to be on the same stage as someone as outstanding as Akaji Jun. "
"No one asked for your opinion …" Chiaki Chihara's face darkened.
"At noon, I plan to buy fried noodles and bread directly from the snack shop.
You don't have to wait for me! "
Chiaki Chihara remembered that he still had to go to the sports department to get his shoes at noon. Just as he was about to head to the snack bar for lunch, he was stopped by someone.
"As for the shoes, I'll get someone to help you get them later," Akashiji Seijuro said. "Lunch should be delicious. You still have a competition in the afternoon, right?"
"Ah … you're right." Chiaki Chihara stopped in his tracks and nodded thoughtfully.
"Then I'll leave it to you!"
"It's about time. Let's go for dinner later."
After arriving at the cafeteria, Chiaki Chihara saw Shiroaki Sayaka standing not far away. At this moment, Shiroaki Sayaka was standing beside a girl, anxiously asking about something.
"Please!
Seto really needs shoes … She just needs them today!
Today's her final match! "
"Huh?
Why should we lend our shoes to that guy? "
One of the girls laughed. "Also, you treat that guy as a friend, but he might not treat you as a friend. You even went to help him.
I say, don't tell me you like him? "
Shiroaki Sayaka clenched his fists tightly and did not say anything in the end.
"What's going on?"
Chiaki Chihara curiously looked at the situation in front of him and asked curiously.
"Nothing much. This guy asked us to lend our shoes to Seto. Why would we do that?" One of the girls said casually.
"I see." Chiaki Chihara nodded his head and looked at Shiroaki Sayaka.
"What's Seto's shoe size?"
"35." Shiroaki Sayaka was stunned for a moment, but he still replied quickly.
"I remember that her match is at 2 in the afternoon, right?"
Chiaki Chihara said. "My match is at 3: 30 in the afternoon. Just ask her to return my shoes after the match."
"Really?!" Shiroaki Sayaka was stunned for a moment and quickly held her hand.
"Thank you very much!
I'm really sorry for my attitude towards you in the past!! "
"Let bygones be bygones. She has also received her due punishment. I'm not a calculative person."
Chiaki Chihara pushed his glasses up. "Also, you'll disturb the order if you keep walking around here. I'm just trying to maintain order."
"Later in the afternoon, just go and get the shoes. My name should be written on them."
Chiaki Chihara turned on his phone. "I'll inform Akaji in advance so that he doesn't have to go over."
"Thank you very much!!"
Shiroaki Sayaka bowed deeply and then hurriedly left the place.
"You're really not calculative at all." Divination said with her arms crossed.
"What's there to be calculative about? We're all in the same school and we're all classmates. Is there a need to make our relationship so tense that we have to glare at each other when we see each other?"
Chiaki Chihara sighed helplessly. "Let's not care about this. Let's go eat first. There's still a match in the afternoon."
"Chun Hyo, you must do your best!" Kōmura Tsuki said seriously.
"From a certain perspective, Chun Hyo is also very good.
But Chun Hyo has a lot of things to do. Doesn't she feel very busy? "
"Yeah, I feel like Chun Hyo doesn't have any free time at all.
She's drawing manga, being the disciplinary committee member, studying and the basketball club … She doesn't have time to rest at all. "Divination said while getting her food.
"Ah, how should I put it … I kind of like it this way." Chiaki Chihara got her food and walked towards the cafeteria with the other two.
"I like the feeling of being busy. I always feel empty when I'm free. I don't know what to do … But you, little Ming, if you don't study hard, you'll be kicked out of Class A in the second semester's class test!"
"I, I don't mind …" Divination looked up and laughed.
The three of them quickly finished their lunch and left the cafeteria together. Although it wasn't summer yet, it was unusually hot today.
"This kind of weather is really not suitable for a match. But this is the only time."
Chiaki Chihara took a sip of mineral water and looked at the people in front of her who were competing. Her face was filled with emotion.
"Ah, this is youth."
She didn't know where her two cute manga characters were right now.
At the shot put field, a pink-haired boy heard Chiaki Chihara's thoughts. His hand trembled slightly and the shot put flew into the sky.
"Eh, where did the shot put go?"
Kazuo Saiki covered his palm and pretended that he didn't see anything. He teleported the shot put back to the field and looked to the other side unnaturally.
"Ah!
Found it!
8.42 meters! "
"No way!
That's a record!!! "
"So Jun Saiki is this good …"
Kazuo Saiki: "No, I'm not. I'm not."
Chiaki Chihara looked at the competition on the field while fanning herself. Setokurumi didn't mind wearing her shoes to compete and got first place in the women's category.
Hmm, I really can't tell … She looks weak, but she's not bad at sports.
"It's Chun Hyo's match soon!
I can't wait to see Chun Hyo run ahead and leave the second place in the dust!! "Divination said excitedly.
"How can you tell …" Chiaki Chihara put down her fan and tapped her lightly.
"I'm not that good."
"Setsubara, your shoes are at the field. You can change into them when you're competing." A boy from the Discipline Department ran over and said to Chiaki Chihara.
"Okay, thank you." Chiaki Chihara nodded at him, patted her clothes, and walked towards the field.
Her shoes were placed together with a few other people's shoes. Chiaki Harahara took a fancy to her shoes at first glance. She stepped forward and picked up her shoes, preparing to put them on.
Akashiji Seijuro's match had ended, and she was standing at the side of the field with the others.
Most of the people who participated in the women's 3000m were sports students. Chiaki Chihara was the kind of person who was forced to do something beyond her ability — at least in the eyes of others.
After putting on her shoes, Chiaki Chihara suddenly felt a slight discomfort, but she couldn't tell what it was. Seeing that the referee was calling her, Chiaki Chihara didn't want to waste any more time. She quickly ran towards the field.
"Go Chun Hyo!"
"Go Setsubara!"
The moment the gunshot rang out, everyone's cheers rang in her ears. Chiaki Chihara bent her knees slightly and rushed out with explosive force.
"Setsubara is so fast!
She's widened the gap from the start … "
The Hyuga Genesis student who was just here to join in the fun was surprised. He had guessed that Chiaki Chihara was good at sports, but the gap between them seemed to be widening …
"Something's not right."
The red-haired boy standing beside him suddenly frowned.
"Her running movements don't seem to be right."
At this time, Chiaki Chihara was enduring some kind of pain from her feet … Someone seemed to have inserted something like a blade into the side of her foot, but because it was stuck deep, it gradually rubbed against the side of her foot as she ran for a while.
The feeling of having her foot cut off was definitely not good. Chiaki Chihara's expression was slightly twisted, but stopping abruptly in such a competition field … was obviously not very wise.
Could it be that the rubber in her shoe had come off?
So she shifted her weight slightly to the other foot and quickened her movements. Since she couldn't endure this kind of pain for a long time, she might as well end it as soon as possible.
However, her running movements were too strange, and many people were puzzled.
"Eh?
Did Chun Hyo sprain her foot?
She looks like she's enduring it … "Divination mumbled and ran to the finish line, ready to wait for Chiaki Chihara.
Although her foot felt uncomfortable, Chiaki Chihara still endured the pain and finished the whole race, and still got first place.
"Hey, you don't look right. Did you sprain your foot?"
"No …"
Chiaki Chihara supported Divination, panting. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Kōmura Tsuki scream in horror.
"Chun Hyo!
Your foot … is bleeding!!! "
Eh?
Chiaki Chihara looked down and saw that the cloth on the side of her shoe was slightly stained with blood. When she stopped, Chiaki Chihara felt the burning pain on the side of her foot.
"It seems like the rubber in my shoe has come off, and something hard has fallen out? …
I'll take it off and take a look … "
Chiaki Chihara carefully sat aside and took her foot out of her shoe. A blade stained with blood fell out of her shoe.
