Season 1: Episode 7.1

[Scene 1]

*Night time*

*Yumi's dorm bell rings*

Yumi: *opens door*

Mitsuhiro: Heyy! How are you doing?

Yumi: Hey! I am doing better than before. Thanks for asking. How are you doing?

Mitsuhiro: I am doing good too.

Yumi: Well, what are you waiting for? Come in!

Mitsuhiro: Thanks. Oh by the way, I brought some dinner. *reveals a tiffin carrier by holding it up while Yumi closes the door*

Yumi: Wait seriously? You didn't really have to.

Mitsuhiro: Nah nah it's my treat. *tries to hand it over to Yumi*

Yumi: No I can't- I can't accept this. *tries not to hold the carrier*

Mitsuhiro: Nah look, hey. Listen. It's my treat. Don't worry about it, alright? Its not a crime to accept food from a friend, you know.

Yumi: ...*hesitates and gives up*... Thank you very much. You are really kind. *says while finally having her hands around the carrier and taking it to plate for dinner*

Mitsuhiro: No, you don't need to thank me. It's just a pleasure cooking for someone anyway.

Yumi: Wait! Y-you cooked this too!?

Mitsuhiro: Yeah! It wasn't that much of a deal anyway.

Yumi: *flustered* Whoaaaaa... T-thanks so much. It really means a lot to me. *says while continuously blinking and looking in other directions*

Mitsuhiro: Don't mention it. *says with a smile*

Yumi: *gets flustered even more and instantly turns her face to the opposite direction while plating*

Mitsuhiro: Anyways, I am gonna go use the washroom.

Yumi: Sure.

[Scene 2]

*Time skip to Mitsuhiro coming out of the washroom and Yumi finishing plating for both Mitsuhiro and herself*

*Mitsuhiro shakes his hands to dry them off*

Yumi: Where did you even learn to cook? I mean, it smells so damn good! Just like last time.

Mitsuhiro: *chuckles lightly* Wehell I learnt it from my sister. She's the one who deserves all the credit actually.

Yumi: Well you should really tell her to join the Masterchef then.

Mitsuhiro: *chuckles* Yeah..... Anyways um.... shall we? *asks while moving his head pointing to her room, indicating to talk about the thing he was asked to come here for*

Yumi: Oh yeah! Sure. But wait... I have some sweets in my fridge. *says while checking her fridge out*

Mitsuhiro: Oh no. You don't need to-

Yumi: Hey. It's not a crime to accept food from a friend, is it? *asks with a smirk*

Mitsuhiro: *smiles with a chuckle* You dare use my own spells against me, potter?

Yumi: *chuckles* That was a good one.

[Scene 3]

*Time skip to Mitsuhiro and Yumi finishing dinner and having dessert*

*Both of them in Yumi's bedroom sitting in their respective chairs in front of Yumi's study table and enjoying their sweets*

Mitsuhiro: Mm... These sweets are really good. *says while chewing*

Yumi: I know, right?

Mitsuhiro: Where did you get them?

Yumi: There's a new confectionery store opened like two blocks away. I got it from there.

Mitsuhiro: Right....*munches*..... So...*brings out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth and fingers*... What did you need my help with?

*Yumi's face becomes concerned and worried as she starts talking*

Yumi: Um..... yeah you might have already seen the video. So you probably already... know that I used to take part in online dating...

*Mitsuhiro wipes his fingers and starts listening to her deeply*

Yumi: *sigh* So there was this one guy... who I met in online recently. He was of this school. And he lived in sector 5. So we kinda started... flhirting with each other. And we also talked about how our sectors differ. And which year we are in. And which class we are in and etc....

*Mitsuhiro keeps on listening to her deeply but with the same emotionless face*

Yumi: So like we talked to each other for hours and... days and.... even weeks! So one day, he asked me to send some currents to him. Like a hundred currents or something. I asked him why. Why do you need a hundred currents? He said he just got detention. Why? Because he confronted a bully in his class. That's why he was a little low on currents. And that's why... he needed it. So I gave him the currents after of course listening to the whole story of how he defended an introvert from being bullied and then we started talking again about the usual stuff... A month passed by. We still kept talking like..... basically everyday. And I really enjoyed it. But something seemed strange.

*Mitsuhiro still listening to her emotionless but with all his focus*

Yumi: Something seemed a little odd with my phone. With my.... account balance. So I tried to pull out an experiment. That is, I would look at my balance before talking to him and look again after talking to him. You know what I saw after I did that? I saw that I lost 5000 currents. Like..... it just-.... disappeared out of nowhere. And I knew that there was a case of these scammers and hackers. That's why I... kinda pulled out the experiment on him and not anyone else. So I looked into his profile and turns out.. he was the culprit. It also turned out that everything he said about himself was a lie. He never lived in sector 5. He never studied as a second year. He never confronted any bully. Hell! He was never even a he!

Mitsuhiro: How did you find out?

Yumi: Well... I hacked her profile too.

Mitsuhiro: *gets a little surprised* Whoaaa you hacked her profile?

Yumi: Well it's not that big of a deal. I kinda.... learnt it from one of my teachers in my middle school due to an incident I don't wanna talk about. But it wasn't any good anyway. I mean, she realized that she was hacked the instant I started to learn about her true identity. After that, she asked me through her fake profile whether I hacked her or not. I panicked, replied no, closed my pc and just went to the store to relax a bit.... A-and it was the worst idea I could have ever come up with.

*Yumi wraps her arms around herself tightly with drops of tears coming out of her eyes*

Yumi: B-because in the way..... I-I was dragged by f-...*gulps*..four boys wearing masks who-

Mitsuhiro: You don't have to say anymore..... I already got the point....

Yumi: T-they threatened me to leave the schoo- *chokes up* Aehaehae....*starts wiping her tears* They threatened me tohoo quit school and.... and.... *wipes her tears away and takes a deep breath* and told me that if this goes to the Authority, they will just cohome back agahahain and.....*sobs*...

*Mitsuhiro looks down on the floor, feeling bad for the poor girl*

*Yumi sobs, wipes her tears away and takes a deep breath again*

Yumi: .....Look I-I don't know how you can help. And I don't really wanna drag you into this. But I-.....I don't wanna leave the school! I finally made some friends... I-..I-....I don't wanna lose them. *sobs while wiping her tears away*

Mitsuhiro: ....Who was the girl?

Yumi: *still wiping her tears*.....Hm?

Mitsuhiro: Who was the girl?

Yumi: *sniffs and breathes out* Her name is.... Norimi Sakai. Sh-she is in class 1-A of this sector.

Mitsuhiro: Who were the ones who... you know.

Yumi: I don't know. The-they were all wearing masks.

Mitsuhiro: You have a guess though?

Yumi: I don't know. Class A I guess.

*Mitsuhiro looks down on the floor and thinks about this deeply*

Mitsuhiro: ....No it's class C. Yeah class A is too sophisticated to do stuff like this. Class B is better than us. And class D... is us. That only leaves class C, right?

Yumi: *finally calming down* B-but why would class C help class A?

Mitsuhiro: I don't know. Maybe they formed an alliance.... Maybe they have a meeting now and then.... Maybe... they are working with each other. It can happen, right?

Yumi: .....R-right.

Mitsuhiro: By the way, how many days did they give you?

Yumi: U-um.... they gave me three days which is.... like... friday.

Mitsuhiro: Friday? At least we got time. Just needs to identify who they are.

[Scene 4]

*Time skip to Mitsuhiro going to the door to take his leave since it was late while Yumi assists him*

Yumi: Sorry to involve you in this mess though.

Mitsuhiro: No please. Don't worry about it. It's a pleasure having the chance to help someone anyway. *says with a calm smile while opening the door*

Yumi: Thank you. And thanks for the food! It really meant a lot. *says with a smile*

Mitsuhiro: *smiles back* Please. Don't mention it. Thanks for the sweets though.

Yumi: Oh you don't need to thank me for the sweets. They are not even that expensive.

Mitsuhiro: *chuckles* But they were super delicious.

Yumi: I know, right!? I wonder how the expensive ones will feel.

Mitsuhiro: We should find out someday. Alright, I guess I am gonna go now. See you tomorrow.

Yumi: See ya.

[Scene 5]

*Mitsuhiro starts walking to the elevator while Yumi closes the door*

*In the meantime, a silhouette reveals to be watching them from the rooftop of the apartment opposite to Mitsuhiro's, through a pair of binoculars*

*The silhouette reveals to be a man with bright silky blond hair with bright white skin*

*The man also reveals to be talking to someone through his phone*

Unknown #3: *lowers the binoculars down* It seems his highness was correct. He really is helping her.

*Sector 8*

*A man walks down a hallway, enters into a room and walks until he reaches a couch*

*The couch had a silhouette, sitting on it too*

*The silhouette reveals to be unknown#1 smoking a cigarette and watching tv with a serious expression in his face*

Assistant: Boss, I have confirmed that you were right... He is helping her.

*Unknown #1 gives a menacing smirk*

Unknown #1: So it seems...
