《Otome game in a reality》Third route; 6. Hide-and-seek
Advertisement
A beautiful peaceful day.
There's no one I've to deal with. I just have to stay in my room, live a life without any psycho at least just for a day.
After selling that crazy expensive bicycle, I lived a life without worrying about food just like the time I had my Visa card.
Now that I think about it why the hell did I, no, Asuka went to school with a bike in the middle of the winter? Specially when school is this close to the dormitory?
This game lacks some logic. Honestly everything is illogical.
Whatever. Since I've enough money to buy whatever I want, I decided to get some pizza and laze around, spending my weekend watching TV. I deserve this weekend because that birthday party was like a hell.
That's what I was planning until I got a message on my phone and mission at the same time.
Of course because the mission naturally appears right in front of me I read it first.
Please give me a break already
Just looking at the penalty I can tell it's another dangerous mission. I feel like the game is trying it's best to not let me go on a berserk mode like last time by making the penalty 100 points.
On my phone I saw photo of a familiar newspaper with familiar title and a threatening message from someone. There was also an ugly handwriting I didn't recognize.
ASUKA YOSHINO'S MOTHER IS A MURDERER!!
Can't that stupid creator think of something else to threaten the main character? If I remember correctly they clearly used it in the first route to create an opportunity to bully me. Now they want to blackmail me?
'If you don't show up at the class 2-A, we'll reveal this to the whole school and make your life living hell'
'You better hurry before I change my mind'

Now I understand what's going on.
A typical villain scene. I'll go there and they'll beat me up like in the last route. Because of this damn mission I've to sit quietly like an idiot and wait for the capture target to show up.
Should I just commit suicide now?
Of course, I won't do something like that just to annoy the creator. First it'll hurt like hell and second I'll lose 100 points for no good reason and will have to start again.
I don't do things that doesn't benefit me.
That's why I'll go to school on Saturday and get beaten into a pulp by some random high school kids while clenching my teeth, waiting for my prince charming to protect me.
The game said I can't 'oppose' them. That doesn't mean I can't report them to school after getting my rewards from this mission.
After wearing as much thick clothes as possible in order to ease the pain when they hit me, I quietly put my phone in my pocket and pressed the voice recorder. This way that bastard /creator/ who's always watching me won't be able to know about recording.
Soon I reached the second floor and found the 2-A class with the help of my map. I said it before and will say it again. This thing is really useful.
The door was already open and a loud laughter that can be heard from the first floor echoed from there. When I stood in front of the door I could clearly see their faces.
Unfortunately they were all boys this time.
I can even see a familiar face within them.
Kazuma from the first route, Riku's friend who I met at that disgusting party. So this guy wasn't that nice guy to begin with. Just another two faced spoiled, rich brat.
So far the only person that isn't two faced is that confusing boy, Saito.

But now isn't the time to care about that. I'm worrying about my future now. Because this kid Kazuma is here, police probably can't do anything about them.
If things go wrong I'll run for my dear life. I can't oppose them if I go far away from them after all.
"Well, well as expected she's here"
"Hehe, she really is pretty just like on the photo here. Her body looks nice too"
"Our boss is really generous. To think that scary person would send us such a precious gift.."
"Tsk, It only means we'll have to work more right?"
Kazuma, the only person I know from these five boys added the last sentence. I was standing there like a prey, waiting to be eaten by predators.
Their words weren't pleasant to hear at all. Now they're saying I'm a gift from someone? A gift for what? To please them?
I stepped into the classroom before running back with all of my speed.
The mission is to not oppose them. I followed their order and entered the classroom. They didn't tell me anything about talking with them ir staying there longer.
"....Hey....."
Before I could hear another word I quickly put my hands on my ears. They say ignorance is a bliss. If I don't hear their words and just ignore their existence then it won't be considered as opposing.
I also threw my phone away so that I won't see their messages. Don't look, don't hear just run forward.
I want to see the creator's face right now. I bet he or she's extremely angry right now because I'm using the rules at my advantage.
Also this body is fast. I know the boys will catch me soon because my leg isn't fully healed yet. However I've this useful thing in my hand.
The map.
Using it at my advantage I ran downstairs that'll lead me to the gym. With help of this detailed map I can see location of the boys' and security cameras.
After reaching the gym I found a large empty wardrobe and hid there. As expected the gym was empty and there was many old dusty furnitures such as the wardrobe I'm in, bookshelf and tables etc. I didn't know why these things are in a gym but that wasn't my problem now.
I only realized it was too foolish of me to hide in a wardrobe. If they found me then it's a checkmate.
"That...that b*tch really is fast.."
"Did we lose her?"
"No. There's no exit around here. She's definitely hiding somewhere. Let's search"
Hearing those words almost made my heart jump out of my chest. Why bother to search? Please just go somewhere...
A minute passed. Then two.. three...
They didn't notice the shabby wardrobe that's in the corner of the room. It probably looked too small to fit someone in.
"It's annoying. I'm spreading this stupid news"
"Fine. Let's go back. I don't want to stay in this dusty place"
Yes! Just leave and never come back. Spread that news all you want, I don't care!
They were almost leaving until that sly bastard looked at my direction and smirked.
It was like a scene in a horror movie where the main character tries to hide from the serial killer by hiding under the bed or in a wardrobe.
Yes, they all 'try' to hide.
Just like me.
"Guys, I've to check something right now. It won't take long"
The boy known as Kazuma slowly walked towards my direction.
Step...step...step...
As expected of Riku's friend he really was confident. His eyes were sly like that of a fox.
He stopped right in front of the wardrobe.
Damn, I'm so dead.
