[I'm here to write my diary again——
Why does it feel a bit like begging for food?
…Forced by life, with no other choice, I can only perform to survive.
Ah, sorry, this strear has no special talents, so I can only share a little trick with everyone—a small tip that lets you quietly stun the entire crowd at the start of the school term.
For example… randomly find a cute female classmate, grab her hand, and say:
"I've beco a magical girl too! Let's work hard together from now on!"
P.S. This trick has already been used by soone at our school.
That's right! It was our little princess!
Although… it happened almost a month ago, so it's a bit outdated.
But it's fine! I believe everyone will find this trick useful soday!
By the way, let ask for everyone—
Alice-chan, did you really beco a magical girl?
Hey hey hey, why did you hold Xiao i's hand?
Why did you approach Xiao i, whom you'd never t before and had no contact with?
If it wasn't because you beca a magical girl, then what was the reason?
Could it be…
Your love-brain activated?!
Love at first sight, instant hand-holding, then confession!
I can almost sll a citrus scent in the air.
Co to think of it, there are really quite a few people at Advanced Nurturing High with sa-sex tendencies.
Like that certain quasi–student council president who wants to turn the school into "might makes right."
Like that mascot girl in B Class—oh, now A Class thanks to the little princess.
Like that phantom thief girl who doesn't look like it but might have sothing going on…
And then there's our little princess…
Hehehe, Advanced Nurturing really is full of talents.
Let's put the little princess aside for now.
Today's diary—there's one more thing!
ssages!
Everyone's seen it, right? You all know about it now, right?
I'm going to criticize soone now.
There's this incredibly capable noblewoman—amazing, truly amazing!
She actually managed to send a ssage to from the other side of the diary!
What did she ssage for?
To scold !
Heartbreaking! Absolutely heartbreaking!
Those undisguised insults were like carving flesh off my heart, one knife at a ti—bloody wounds being cut open!
Too much! This is too much!
What can I even do?
I'm just a weak, pitiful, powerless child who can only hide behind the diary and write curses stroke by stroke.
When I think about how everyone is secretly badmouthing behind my back, I get so sad.
Big tears pour down like rain.
No matter how much I wipe, they just won't stop.
But that's not what makes saddest.
What makes saddest is…
Why does this damn Advanced Nurturing school have so little going on?!
I checked the calendar carefully today, and the more I looked, the more I realized…
Nothing is happening this month.
Nothing last month. Nothing this month.
Then why did I even co to this school?!
Do I have to lie low for another month?!
What about my diary, then?!
No, I need to think of sothing.
Just you wait!]
"Today's reading complete. Reading points 1."
The diary ended here.
Right on cue, the cold chanical voice echoed in Horikita Suzune's ears.
"Total accumulated reading points: 31.
'ssage' feature unlocked."
"Current free ssage count: 1."
And of course, there was the "ssage board" ntioned in today's diary.
"So… I can leave ssages too?" Horikita said softly, a hint of surprise in her eyes.
She had always thought that the only way to talk to the person behind the diary was to find them, just like they had said.
She hadn't expected that ssages were possible.
And that soone had already t the conditions and used it.
…Which ant that if there were other features unlocked by reading points in the future, she would always be one day behind because she hadn't read on the first day?
No.
Rather than worrying about that, she should check the ssages first.
Besides, the diary just said that she could post one too, right?
With that thought, Horikita flipped the diary backward.
Blank pages fluttered past until it stopped at the very end.
There were only two ssages.
One was a black question mark covered in red annotations.
The other…
A long ss of red and black, attacking everyone.
Both ssages had a thumbs-up icon beneath them.
The first had 7 likes.
The second had 5.
"..."
With the mindset of checking other people's ssages first, Horikita focused her gaze on the content and began thinking.
Today's diary wasn't very long.
There wasn't much that required deep interpretation.
It was mostly mocking the "little princess."
So rather than overanalyzing hidden anings, Horikita decided to focus on the ssages.
The first one—the little princess's question mark—had no extra aning. She skipped it.
The key was probably the second one.
A mix of red and black curses.
Even Horikita could easily understand:
The red text was added by the diary's owner.
Only the black text was likely the original intent of the ssage.
So what was this "Handprint Sister" trying to express?
Venting dissatisfaction with the school?
No.
She hadn't cursed the school itself.
The parts that expanded the insults to the entire school were in red.
If she picked out only the black text…
It beca very clear.
Those nas—
They were all from Class D.
In other words, the sender was, like her, a Class D student.
Hated Yamauchi Haruki.
Hated Ike Kanji.
Hated Horikita Suzune…
"Idiot Horikita Suzune."
She quietly read out one of the black lines.
And suddenly, she rembered the "hallucination" she had heard that morning.
It was the sa.
The sa words.
The voice that had spoken them…
Was Kushida Kikyo's.
"I see…"
Horikita murmured softly, a flash of realization in her eyes.
…She rembered now.
She finally understood why Kushida had been clinging to her since the beginning, insisting on becoming friends.
She finally understood who the "two-faced person" ntioned in the first diary entry—the one who had caused a major incident—really was.
And she finally understood why Kushida had been absent today.
The two-faced person was Kushida Kikyo.
Handprint Sister was Kushida Kikyo.
The one who had gone to the sa middle school as her and called her an idiot—
Was still Kushida Kikyo.
