The first to react was Choi Yu Han.

“……Ha!”

Choi Yu Han let out a hollow laugh and stood up.

“Well, we have a completely unexpected guest here.”

With a sarcastic smile on his lips, he looked just like a real delinquent. Which he is.

Ban Ha Min, who suddenly appeared, seemed completely uninterested in Choi Yu Han.

Ignoring Choi Yu Han’s greeting, Ban Ha Min quickly scanned the infirmary.

And then our eyes met.

Ban Ha Min smiled brightly.

“Chun Ja!”

Don’t come!

I desperately pretended not to know him.

But Ban Ha Min didn’t care at all and ran to me, grabbed my hand and jumped up and down.

“Hey, hey. I heard you were talking to those bad guys at the school gate earlier, so I came running right away. I did well, right?”

Why is the person who came to save me not welcome at all…

I tried to avoid Ban Ha Min’s gaze with cloudy eyes.

Regardless, Ban Ha Min cheerfully babbled on.

So to roughly summarize Ban Ha Min’s explanation:

Apparently, Ban Ha Min had already figured out who I was and what class I was in.

‘Well, my photo has been circulating since the first day of the Chun Ja craze, so it would be stranger if he didn’t know.’

And Ban Ha Min waited for the right moment for a ‘dramatic encounter’. He said something about needing to do that much to commemorate our fateful meeting.

‘Why is this a fateful meeting in the first place?’

And finally today, the ‘incident’ occurred.

Ban Ha Min, who had been receiving reports on my movements through the fan club, sensed from the suspicious atmosphere that today was the day for that ‘dramatic encounter’. So he quickly rushed here.

That’s how we ended up in this situation.

Ban Ha Min said with a serious face:

“Chun Ja, you’re too kind and innocent to know, but those Haesung Commercial High guys are veeeery bad guys. You must never talk to them again from now on. Got it?”

I didn’t want to get involved with the Haesung Commercial High guys either…

By the way, kind and innocent? Who?

It seemed that in Ban Ha Min’s universe, Chun Ja was an innocent and pitiful student.

‘This guy really lives in a different world.’

I awkwardly laughed and quietly pulled my hand away from Ban Ha Min’s grasp.

Ha.

‘I want to go home.’

Suddenly my whole body felt tired.

Yeah. Maybe this is actually a dream? When I wake up, I might be back in the original world…

“Can you step away from me for a bit…?”

“No! Chun Ja, how can you do this to me? We’re friends! Don’t tell me you’ve already forgotten our memories from that day?”

It’s not easy to forget that crazy thing…

It was such a shocking day that I sometimes have nightmares about it.

Wait. How is this different from a nightmare…?

That’s when.

“Hey, you there. Are you done talking?”

Choi Yu Han said while picking his ear.

“I really can’t stand that act of trying to be cute.”

I can’t believe it. There was someone in this worldview who thought Ban Ha Min’s way of speaking was strange.

My opinion of Choi Yu Han improved slightly.

Ban Ha Min tilted his head and asked:

“Hmm? I haven’t seen that uniform before, who are you?”

Choi Yu Han grinned.

“Me? Well, try to guess.”

How can he guess if he’s never seen you before.

A battle of nerves broke out between the two men. Ban Ha Min and Choi Yu Han glared at each other, sizing each other up.

Soon, Ban Ha Min stuck out his tongue slightly.

“Hmph, bleh.”

“What was that?”

…What an unsightly battle of nerves.

I quietly got up and moved closer to the window. I was thinking of bolting if necessary.

That’s when Ban Ha Min suddenly spoke coldly.

“Nevermind that. What’s Haesung Commercial High doing here?”

Sudden acceleration out of nowhere.

Come to think of it, there used to be a lot of novels where the >_< type had dual personalities… Why are there so many dual personalities in this neighborhood?

"Me? I came to fight Sung Ji Chan."

At Choi Yu Han's words, Ban Ha Min spoke with an uncharacteristically cold expression.

"Ji Chan? Ji Chan's not here. I'll be your opponent instead."

Choi Yu Han's expression changed strangely.

"What amazing friendship."

Choi Yu Han let out a snort of laughter, as if he found it absurd.

"Do you guys always do anything for Sung Ji Chan?"

"What? What do you mean…?"

Ban Ha Min's face turned serious.

"You… Do you know Hae Yul?"

What's that about?

Please stop talking about things only you guys know.

Why did Hae Yul suddenly come up? I don't even know the context, but it's ridiculous how they seem to understand each other.

Choi Yu Han smirked.

"Even though I just transferred, you don't think I wouldn't know about that? Such a famous story?"

I don't know.

What's going on? Was I actually the outcast?

As the so-called possessor, I ended up with less information than even the transfer student, so I listened intently to their conversation.

"Don't talk carelessly when you don't know anything!"

"I don't know?"

"Yeah! You don't know anything!"

I really don't know, so I wish someone would explain it to me.

"Don't talk about our friendship like that!"

Ban Ha Min shouted angrily.

'I didn't say anything.'

I covered my ears.

By the way, who's Hae Yul?

'Maybe an ex-girlfriend?'

It sounds like a girl's name… No, if they said friendship, is it a guy?

No, it could be a female friend too.

Since they said it's a famous story, I should look it up later. If even the transfer student knows, the extras probably know too.

"How long did that precious friendship of yours last?"

Choi Yu Han sneered. Ban Ha Min lowered his voice.

"You just crossed a line you shouldn't have."

Ban Ha Min said with an angry face.

"I'm pissed off. I won't let this slide."

Choi Yu Han snickered and loosened up. Ban Ha Min also took a stance while glaring at Choi Yu Han.

Contrary to my expectation that they would all jump in together, only Choi Yu Han was fighting.

The other Haesung Commercial High delinquents stepped back to watch them, as if it had already been agreed upon.

'Why?'

They didn't seem like such well-mannered guys… Unexpected.

Anyway, if it was one-on-one, there was a chance.

I quietly hid myself and watched the fight.

In any case, I should be cheering for Ban Ha Min here.

Since he came because of me…

'But is he really fighting because of me?'

It just seems like he's fighting because he's pissed off at Choi Yu Han.

I shouldn't think this, but I suddenly wondered if they would have fought here even if Choi Yu Han hadn't provoked them.

Anyway, back to the point.

Ban Ha Min and Choi Yu Han glared at each other, sizing each other up, before rushing at each other.

A fierce fight broke out.

Thwack!

How long did the fists fly back and forth like that?

Choi Yu Han wiped his burst lip that he got from Ban Ha Min's hit and said:

"Tsk… Not bad?"

Ban Ha Min smiled.

"Heh, you too."

Do you really have to say that stuff when you fight?

I looked at them with jaded eyes.

The fight was unexpectedly evenly matched.

When I saw Ban Ha Min fighting at the abandoned building last time, he seemed pretty good, so I guess Choi Yu Han is strong too.

But as time passed, the superior side became clear.

It was Ban Ha Min.

'As expected of the Three Musketeers.'

You can't beat the main character buff.

And the final blow.

Thwack!

Ban Ha Min's fist landed squarely on Choi Yu Han's jaw.

Thud.

"Ugh, how frustrating."

With that, Choi Yu Han collapsed completely.

'…Is it over?'

The infirmary fell silent.

When Choi Yu Han went down, the Haesung Commercial High thugs exchanged glances.

And then.

"Yaaaaaah!"

They charged at Ban Ha Min with a battle cry.

'It's not over!'

I knew it.

In the end, the dreaded 20 vs 1 broke out.

No, looking at it now, the number has been cut in half.

Did they run away? Disloyal bastards. No, wait. Is this a balance patch? It could be the blessing of the Inso god.

'Still, there are too many opponents… Will he be okay?'

I worriedly looked at Ban Ha Min while hiding behind a chair.

'It's better than 20 vs 1, right?'

Indeed, Ban Ha Min fought quite well against the Haesung Commercial High thugs.

I quietly hid in a corner and watched them fight.

'Has he been to the infirmary often?'

Ban Ha Min seemed to know where everything was, fighting nimbly by using the surrounding terrain and objects.

I was even impressed when he pushed several Haesung Commercial High guys onto the bed and then took out a book from the bookshelf to use as a weapon.

In the end, the final victor was Ban Ha Min.

After everything was over.

The Haesung Commercial High delinquents were sprawled here and there.

And in the middle of it all, Ban Ha Min stood alone.

The infirmary fell silent.

Ban Ha Min turned his head towards where I was.

"Chun Jaaaaaa. Sniff."

No. That's back again.

When our eyes met, Ban Ha Min pretended to cry and came towards me.

"I was so hurt and so scared when I got injured here."

I gently pushed Ban Ha Min's face away and said.

"…Yeah. So… Good job?"

Anyway, he got hurt while coming to save me… I should treat him well…

Although Ban Ha Min won, it must have been a tough fight as his whole body was covered in injuries.

I said in a state of resignation:

"Let's treat your wounds first…"

"Mm-hmm. Okaaay."

Ban Ha Min nodded obediently and sat on the bed that was still in relatively good condition.

'What in the world is going on.'

I let out a deep sigh and searched the infirmary.

No matter how poorly Lee Yeon Ho manages it, there should at least be a first aid kit, right?

Just then, one of the Haesung Commercial High thugs stirred and moved.

He got up from his spot, staggering as if trying to approach Ban Ha Min, who had his eyes closed.

Ban Ha Min didn't notice the attack at all.

'No!'

I hurriedly picked up a book that was nearby.

It was the hardcover book of about 500 pages that Ban Ha Min had used earlier.

And.

Whack!

I brought it down on the guy's head.

"Urgh!"

With a groan, the man collapsed.

I caught my breath.

'Did I get him?'

Ban Ha Min looked at me with round eyes.

That's when.

"Hey guys, are you in there?"

A cheerful voice was heard from outside.

Click, the door opened.

And I made eye contact with Lee Yeon Ho, who entered the infirmary, while still holding the book.

"…"

"…"

"…Ah."

I rolled my eyes.

"…Hello?"

Lee Yeon Ho's face was filled with shock as his mouth fell open.

I looked around the infirmary.

The Haesung Commercial High thugs sprawled like corpses.

Groans of pain could be heard here and there, "Ugh."

Lee Yeon Ho dropped the bag he was holding, dumbfounded.

Thud.

"My infirmary!"

With Lee Yeon Ho's cry, the infirmary commotion came to an end.
