Became the Academy Romantic Phantom Thief

Chapter 29

focus on attention

“Is it true that the church donations mentioned in the announcement were not disclosed to the media?”

For once, the question was normal.

As I watched the situation with my chest tightened, I breathed a sigh of relief.

“yes. This is the content of our group’s exclusive coverage.”

“I wonder how you got that information.”

Julia hesitated for a moment before answering.

“An official provided the information anonymously.”

An anonymous official was now answering herself.

Well, I don’t really need to reveal that.

“Is that the end of the question?”

“no. I have one more question.”

stop it. Why is there a subtle war of nerves between the two of them?

“Looking at the content, it seems that he was trying to contain only neutral facts as much as possible. If so, what do you think about the behavior of the Phantom Thief Raven?”

This is not good. It was a sensitive topic that could be controversial no matter how you answer it.

The only answer is to avoid answering at all and exercise the right to remain silent.

Fortunately, Julia was also well aware of that fact.

“I don’t think there’s any need to answer that. My opinion is not important in this announcement.”

“I think differently. No matter how neutral you are, the content will inevitably change depending on what the presenter thinks.”

Why is the main character child so persistent?

Looking at his tenacious eyes, it seemed that he had no intention of letting him go easily until he got the answer he was looking for.

“… is neutral.”

“Really? Then why did you deliberately add the little-known good deeds of the phantom thief?”

“That, too, is part of what Raven did.”

“Does that mean that phantom thieves aren’t necessarily bad criminals?”

“·················ogue.”

Julia is shaking. Although it looked like nothing on the outside, he couldn’t hide the slight trembling in his eyes.

It’s layered, aiming for it, and deliberately pressing it.

I must be pointing out what Julia said during her break yesterday. Will I be able to say the same thing in front of the kids as I did last time?

Why are you doing this?

If it’s the main character and the heroine, you have to be busy dating, why are they growling at each other?

[In such a case, shouldn’t the prince on a white horse take the initiative?]

Of course I want to go out too.

But isn’t there a proper way?

At a time when all the children’s eyes are already focused on the conversation between the two, an innovative way to disperse it…

There was only one.

jump I purposely made a loud noise and got up from my seat.

The eyes naturally gather here.

He met Yulia’s bewildered eyes.

Layered also turned and looked at me with a slightly surprised look.

After confirming that everyone’s attention was focused, he calmly opened his mouth.

“I suggested.”

“···yes?”

“Cro!”

Julia shouts my name in shock.

Without even giving her a chance to say anything, she nailed it.

“I am the anonymous person who provided church donation information. I found out about it by chance and actively insisted on including it in the presentation.”

“Hey, you bastard. Are you crazy?”

Rachel, who always teased me, whispered in a serious tone this time.

You must be aware that the ripple effect of such a statement can be strong.

Simply put, I voluntarily reported myself as a follower of a phantom thief.

Considering the hatred of the media and the government towards the phantom thief Raven, it’s like crazy.

Layered frowned and looked at me.

“Does that mean that Phantom Thieves aren’t bad?”

“no. That’s not it. I just wanted to let you know that something like this happened.”

“So what I’m asking is, why did you want to announce it, your intentions?”

[Are you okay?]

God’s worrying question.

‘Certainly I have a phantom thief constitution.’

Even when all the children’s eyes were focused on me, I didn’t really tremble.

Rather, he analyzed the situation calmly and coolly enough to think it was strange.

“The nun who responded to the interview said these words at the end. ‘Please, please spread the word.’ The incurable disease that afflicted a child would not have been able to be cured without someone’s attention, so many people should know and help.”

“·················ogue.”

This was an objective fact.

The only truth without any mixture of instigation and fabrication.

“I do not intend to defend Raven the Phantom Thief. Not even a phantom follower. I just wanted to do Sister’s request.”

This isn’t exactly wrong either.

First of all, since I’m a Raven, I can’t be a follower. And it was Julia, not the phantom thief, that I was defending.

And it is clear that I want to grant Sister’s requests.

In fact, it’s pretty well put together.

But how are you? Anyway, it’s not a lie.

When all my answers were finished, there was a still silence throughout the class.

It’s hard to bear this chilly atmosphere.

The teacher, who had been silently waiting for so long, finally opened his mouth.

“…the free questions will end here. Well done for the presentation.”

this teacher If you’re going to sort things out, you’ll do it sooner rather than later.

Anyway, after our group’s presentation was over, Julia returned to her seat, enthralled.

“You did a great job presenting.”

“hey. are you okay? Is he out of his mind?”

“···Sorry. I ruined them all.”

He comforted her, who was almost crying with self-blame.

“no. No one would have known that I would be asked questions there.”

It would have been a perfect success if it had ended at the presentation.

Still, I’m glad I managed to fix it somehow.

Julia also quickly regained her energy and said with a smile on her lips.

“thank you. It’s all thanks to Cro.”

“yes? a. What did I do?”

Rachel smiled mischievously next to her and stabbed her in the side.

Is this guy a side lover? stop stabbing me

“Isn’t it nicer than you were before? It feels a little out of place.”

“What did you say. It wasn’t chubby from the beginning.”

“Heh heh. Well, this older sister will hit you like that.”

I really want to hit a honey chestnut.

It’s just too absurd to make fun of you while riding the line.

“yes?”

I suddenly felt a staring stare and turned my head to see Sharon staring at me.

what. burdensomely.

“···Well done.”

“uh? Uh, thank you?”

Did I get compliments from Sharon now?

It felt like something very strange. I must say it’s a bit strange.

The four of us were congratulating us on our own success while chatting amicably.

I glanced at the back of the head sitting in the front seat several times.

Maybe you like him?

So far, I’ve just avoided them, but I guess I’ll have to talk to them separately.

***

Lunch hour.

Nam Jeong-ne and I had a secret meeting at the back of the dining room.

The nuance is a bit strange when I express it like this.

Anyway, I called Layered secretly and asked the whole question.

“Why did you do that before?”

Of course he knew what I was talking about.

There’s no way I’d know

“…I think I’ve gone too far. sorry.”

“You should apologize to Julia, not me.”

If you say it clearly or look at your expression, it seems that you are repenting of your mistake.

Looking back now, I don’t understand what he was thinking.

“You are close. Am I mistaken? Why are you fighting with your friends?”

Strictly speaking, it wasn’t even a fight.

This is a level where Layered attacked unilaterally by taking advantage of the special situation of announcement.

“·················ogue.”

“Why can’t you answer me? You didn’t just do it for no reason, did you?”

“That’s not right. just···. I think it was because Yulia didn’t understand how to defend the phantom thief.”

It’s pretty much the same as what I was thinking.

Even so, there was no sympathy. To make your friend in trouble for just that reason.

But after listening to the additional explanations that followed, it made sense to some extent.

“The Julia I know is the kindest and kindest person I know. I haven’t seen him in a long time, but I’m sure there’s no one nicer than him. I was worried to see Yulia suddenly defending and defending the phantom thief like that.”

At first, I also felt that Yulia’s change was awkward.

It seems that the main character also felt that way and tried to bring her back in her own way.

The intention was understandable, but it was too radical.

If I did something wrong, Julia could get hurt.

After hearing all the stories, it was only then that I fully felt it.

The fact that the main characters are still immature beings who have not grown up. It must have been a similar thing that he was too obsessed with winning against me.

If so, it will be resolved over time. The main character will grow mentally as he goes through the events of the original story that will happen in the future. Because that’s what boys’ cartoons are like.

“Layered.”

“···yes. Say it.”

“In that case, I think you should ask Julia directly. That’s what being friends is like.”

“friend···.”

There was nothing more to say.

It would be nice if you could blow out some great famous lines here, but there are no words that come to mind.

So I just tapped her on the shoulder and said.

“I apologize directly to Julia later. As you said, he’s a good boy, so I’ll accept it.”

“thank you. Thank you very much.”

“yes? What’s so masculine with men? So I’m going first.”

He waved his hand and walked out of the room first.

‘Still, it seems to have been resolved quite well.’
