I Received an NTR V*deo - Episode 32

I think it’s time I told you everything I’ve been doing until now.
We go back to the day after I found out Megumi had been cheating.
Under a clear blue sky, I stood in front of the gates of Ryudan Academy.
I had skipped class and arrived around the time school was letting out.
From the direction of the school building, groups of rough-looking students began streaming out.
________________________________________
“Hey, you looking for someone?”
“Ah, yeah. Someone I know asked me to come.”
“Someone you know, huh? I probably know them too. I’ll show you the way.”
“Really? Thanks, I appreciate it.”
________________________________________
A group of Ryudan students approached me—about twelve of them in total.
They were clearly planning to rough me up.
I sighed and was about to tell them who I was here to see, but one of them spoke first.
________________________________________
“So, who the hell are you? You realize this is Ryudan territory, right?”
“This isn’t a place for small fry like you.”
“Whoever you’re here for, probably another loser. Birds of a feather, right?”
“I’m here to see Shimazaki—he’s a third-year.”
________________________________________
As soon as I said that, the guys who had surrounded me instantly parted to make way.
________________________________________
“S-Sorry about that!”
“We didn’t know you were a friend of Shimazaki… Please, keep this quiet!”
________________________________________
Just how scared of Hirofumi are these guys?
I was dumbfounded, but I had no intention of hurting anyone unnecessarily, so I decided to go along with their request.
________________________________________
“Fine. But in exchange, could you take me to where Shimazaki is?”
“Of course! Right away!”
________________________________________
They guided me through the school, but as we walked down the hallway, every student we passed glared at me.
I didn’t know who they were, but it was obvious they were itching for a fight.
I couldn’t begin to understand how people around here thought.
________________________________________
“This is it.”
________________________________________
They stopped in front of a classroom.
The student who led me there took off immediately.
I opened the door—and there was Hirofumi.
________________________________________
“Hey. You made it.”
________________________________________
Behind him were several students, beaten to a pulp, standing at attention like soldiers.
I glanced at them, then asked Hirofumi:
________________________________________
“Who are these guys?”
“Oh, just the idiots who helped Netori with his lame stunts. Yujiro mentioned them.”
________________________________________
Apparently, they were Netori’s friends—shaking in fear, their faces swollen and bruised.
Hirofumi can’t stand people who do dishonorable things. That hasn’t changed.
________________________________________
“Anyway, about the cheating investigation—just like you guessed, this one here knew. He spilled everything instantly.”
“You’re fast. That really helps.”
________________________________________
That’s right.
I had asked Hirofumi to investigate Megumi’s infidelity.
And the person he was pointing at was Imamura.
The guy looked pale, clearly gauging Hirofumi’s mood.
________________________________________
“If it’s something Shimazaki asked, of course I’ll talk! I’ll tell you everything I know—anything you want!”
“That’s what he said. So, what do you want to do, Yujiro?”
________________________________________
Imamura flashed me a nervous, sycophantic smile.
He knew the relationship between me and Hirofumi.
________________________________________
That started during our second encounter.
I had been surrounded by Ryudan, and I messaged Hirofumi:
“I’m being hassled by Ryudan punks. Probably second-years. Can you help?”
________________________________________
He replied shortly: “Hold tight.”
Not long after, a message from him hit the phones of those surrounding me.
________________________________________
“Wait, hold up. Message from Shimazaki!”
“Shimazaki!? Did you do something to piss him off?!”
“No, I don’t think so…”
________________________________________
He must’ve sent a group message to all the second-years he had contact with.
Naturally, nobody dared defy Hirofumi. The punks backed off immediately.
________________________________________
“Lucky you. We just got called away by a senior.”
“Later.”
“H-Hey, wait a second…”
________________________________________
I grabbed Imamura’s arm before he could sneak off, and decided to give him a little scare.
________________________________________
“Shimazaki’s a friend of mine. He messaged everyone because I asked him to.”
________________________________________
When I showed him our exchange, his face turned deathly pale.
________________________________________
“If I’d known you were Shimazaki’s friend, I would’ve backed off sooner!”
“Ha ha…”
________________________________________
I don’t like using Hirofumi’s name to intimidate people, but I’ve had enough of dealing with pointless trouble.
________________________________________
“So, from now on, don’t mess with me. And keep quiet about me too. Got it?”
“Yes… understood.”
________________________________________
With that, Imamura understood where we stood.
So, when I showed up today, he wasn’t surprised.
________________________________________
“From now on, I need you to gather intel.”
“Intel?”
“Yeah. Anything—no matter how minor. Ideally, get solid proof. Video if possible. Fights, anything. I need every card I can get to corner Netori.”
“Understood?”
“Yes, sir!”
________________________________________
And so Imamura began working under my orders, collecting evidence.
He told me everything he knew so far—that’s also when I heard about the video.
________________________________________
“Total scumbag, huh?”
“Yeah. So that’s why the guys behind you got beat up too.”
________________________________________
Hirofumi glanced back, looking down on the trembling, battered students behind him.
They were the ones who helped Netori charm girls.
Under Hirofumi’s glare, they shrank and hung their heads.
________________________________________
“Yujiro, let me in on this too. I can’t stand people who act like cowards.”
“Got it. We’ll find a way to make a connection between you and Netori.”
________________________________________
Soon after, Imamura managed to film Netori and his gang bullying other students.
He also gathered evidence of assault, threats, theft, underage drinking—a whole collection.
I used that material to negotiate with Yamamoto and the others.
________________________________________
We met at a park near the school. I showed them the footage.
Just like suspects in a drama being confronted with damning evidence, their faces turned pale.
________________________________________
“Wh-What are you gonna do with this?”
“I’m thinking of turning it over to the proper authorities. I’ve got more videos—criminal activity and all.”
“H-Hey, Imamura! What the hell is this!?”
________________________________________
They turned on Imamura, furious.
But Imamura looked apologetic—and oddly resigned.
________________________________________
“Sorry. Shimazaki is involved in this. I can’t go against him.”
“S-Shimazaki… the demon?!”
________________________________________
Even Yamamoto’s hands were shaking.
Hirofumi’s reputation is useful even in situations like this.
________________________________________
“Please! You have to forgive us! We’re begging you!”
“I don’t wanna go to jail!”
“Hm… Well, if you do me a favor, I might not report it. Sound fair?”
“You’d better listen to him. Shimazaki’s backing him.”
“…Fine. We’ll do whatever you say.”
________________________________________
Just like that, Yamamoto and the others chose to side with me.
Still visibly shaken, they awaited their orders.
________________________________________
“Keep me updated on everything Netori does. And always keep an eye on Megumi. I want to know anything and everything related to him.”
________________________________________
Thanks to this, I could now track Netori’s actions—and his relationship with Megumi.
But even after a month, there was no major development.
Still, by this point, with the exception of Shoji, Netori had lost all his allies.
