The Advanced Nurturing High School’s top-tier stealth master, Uesugi Gen, along with his trusty sidekick and human shield, Kamuro Masumi, embarked on the first phase of their mission.
But they soon encountered an insurmountable obstacle.
“Hey, isn’t that the new student council president?”
“Shh, keep your voice down! The forums say he’s a stalking pervert.”
“Don’t look at him, just pretend we didn’t see anything. Walk past naturally.”
A group of girls, their acting skills laughably poor, glanced toward the stealth duo hiding behind an advertisement board as they whispered among themselves while walking past.
…
Hey, you’ve got to be kidding me!
You think I can’t hear you talking that loudly?
Which class are you from? How dare you slander the student council president! If I find out, I’ll deduct your points so hard you’ll regret it!
With a dark expression, Uesugi Gen turned his head and shot a death glare at the girls.
“Hurry, let’s go! I also heard he’s a two-timing scumbag.”
“Eh? Really?”
“They say any girl he sets his sights on gets completely played with.”
The girls picked up their pace into a light jog, hurrying away after meeting Uesugi Gen’s glare.
“#%&@!”
That’s it. I’m enforcing Advanced Nurturing High School’s literary inquisition right now—eliminating dissent, suppressing rival classes, and sentencing them all to the ultimate punishment!
“Pfft—!”
Behind him, Kamuro Masumi covered her mouth, failing to stifle a laugh, then taunted him in a playful tone:
“Oh? So our esteemed student council president is actually a master of stealth and tailing people? What secret school teaches such forbidden arts? Or am I just ignorant of its existence?”
“Shut up!”
Uesugi Gen’s face flushed, veins bulging on his forehead as he defended himself. “Being noticed by random passersby doesn’t count… Tail—following… friends, classmates, that doesn’t count either, right?”
His attempts to justify himself only became more incoherent—something about “occasional slip-ups” and “the complex nature of tailing”—which made the beautiful high school girl beside him burst into laughter, filling the street with a cheerful energy.
“So, what’s your next move, master of stealth?”
Kamuro Masumi, still suppressing her amusement, nudged Uesugi Gen with her elbow while glancing at Kanzaki Ryuji, who was gradually walking away. She adjusted her outfit with anticipation and said excitedly:
“Should I take over? You can just follow behind and maybe even pick up a few tricks while you’re at it.”
“Shut up, Masumi. Don’t talk back to your master.”
Uesugi Gen’s face turned even redder, exuding the frustrated energy of someone trying to assert dominance in vain.
Surprisingly, Kamuro Masumi didn’t argue back as usual. Instead, she folded her arms and assumed a look of amusement, waiting to see what he’d do next.
“Well then, what’s your plan? Just a heads-up, we’re about to reach Keyaki Mall. There’ll be even more people there.”
Uesugi Gen: “……”
After two seconds of thought, he made his move—grabbing Kamuro Masumi’s soft wrist and pulling her along.
“Hey! What the hell are you doing?!”
“Instead of lurking in corners and attracting attention, it’s better to follow him openly from a distance. That way, fewer people will notice.”
“Then why don’t you just go by yourself? Why drag me into this?”
“I stand out too much alone. Having someone with me makes it less suspicious. And if we get caught, I can pin everything on you—you’ve got a record anyway.”
Walking side by side in broad daylight, Uesugi Gen shamelessly explained his logic while leading Kamuro Masumi forward.
“…Huh?”
Kamuro Masumi, her face slightly flushed from being pulled along, was momentarily stunned. “I don’t even know him that well. How would blaming me help?”
Well, technically, they did know each other, but they’d never really spoken before—each held a somewhat special position in their respective classes.
“It’s simple. I just need a bigger scandal to divert his attention away from being followed. For example…”
Uesugi Gen suddenly stopped walking.
Kamuro Masumi, still being led by the hand, had no time to react and crashed straight into his chest.
“You stopped—”
She looked up, slightly annoyed.
“Like this.”
Uesugi Gen grasped her shoulders and leaned down—toward her soft, pink-tinged cheeks.
“Chu~”
Uesugi Gen: “(˵˘ ³˘˵)”
Kamuro Masumi: “（oへo💢p）”
SLAP!
…
“You shameless, perverted, disgusting, sex-crazed bastard!”
On the school path, Kamuro Masumi, still blushing, stormed ahead, furiously muttering curses under her breath.
Trailing behind at a relaxed pace, Uesugi Gen absentmindedly rubbed the red mark on his face, still savoring the peculiar sensation of their lips touching.
“So, Masumi…”
His voice, tinged with amusement, reached her ears.
“What?” Kamuro Masumi snapped, not bothering to turn around. “If you’re asking how it felt, it was about as exciting as a mosquito bite.”
Uesugi Gen feigned outrage. “What? Some damn mosquito dares to steal a kiss from Masumi?! Looks like it’s time for Advanced Nurturing High School’s next mosquito extermination campaign.”
“…Shameless idiot,” she muttered under her breath.
“Hm? What was that, Masumi?”
“I said go die already!”
“Alright, alright, I’ll stop joking.”
With a quick step, Uesugi Gen caught up to Kamuro Masumi and—without hesitation—took her small hand in his again.
“Hey! Let go of me!”
Her words were harsh, but… she made no real effort to pull away.
Masumi’s tsundere act is unexpectedly cute.
“I was asking about the kiss—how did it really feel?”
Uesugi Gen steered the conversation back.
“Are you deaf? I already said I felt nothing.” Kamuro Masumi rolled her eyes in exasperation.
“…Really?” Uesugi Gen raised an eyebrow, unconvinced.
“Of course! What, did you expect me to have some kind of grand revelation?”
“I just thought kissing Masumi in the middle of the school might be more thrilling than, say… stealing from a convenience store. You seemed like the type to enjoy that.”
His voice carried a hint of disappointment.
“…You might be onto somethi—wait.”
Kamuro Masumi nodded absentmindedly before suddenly freezing.
Something wasn’t right.
She slowly turned her head, eyes narrowing in suspicion.
“…Masumi?”
Uesugi Gen stiffened, instinctively taking two steps back as he realized what he’d just let slip.
Kamuro Masumi smirked, stepping forward and grabbing him by the collar, pulling him closer.
“I’ve been waiting for this. You finally slipped up.”
“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about, Masumi.” Uesugi Gen forced a smile, desperately trying to backpedal.
Her fingers traced along his jawline, nails grazing his neck—her voice was soft, almost tender. But it sent a chill down his spine.
“I never told you I stole from a convenience store. So tell me—how exactly did you find out, stalker boy?”
