Delivery Boy and Masked Girl - A delivery boy discovers the secret of a beautiful gal at his delivery destination. - Chapter 17: Class Duty And Intruder.

Class Duty And Intruder.

Sixth period was over, and the bell rang for the end of the day.

The class was broken into small groups, each talking happily as they left the classroom.

Needless to say, none of them came to me, though.

But first of all, I had a job to do today.

It’s an exaggeration to say so, but well, in the sense that I have to do it, it’s still a job.

I used the blackboard eraser to erase the blackboard at the front of the classroom.

When I was done, I had to clean up the classroom and write the class logbook.

In short, I’m on class duty.

“…Cough“

The chalk dust from the blackboard eraser flew around, causing me to cough.

Can’t they just use whiteboards for everything? Damn.

Chalk and blackboards might be good for the environment, but they take a lot of work to maintain.

…Hmmm.

I think there were two of us on class duty every day.

The other one, I think.

“Ha-Hasumi-kun!”

“Hmm.”

Suddenly, someone called my name and I turned toward the source of the voice.

Shizuki Miori was standing at the door, breathing heavily and her hands on her chest.

I noticed that there was no one else in the classroom.

“Sorry! Sorry! I totally forgot that I was on day duty…!”

Yes, I think the other person was Shizuki.

Thinking about it, this is probably the second time we’ve talked at school.

“Oh. You remembered it well.”

“You’re so meany!”

“Wrongg. I’ll leave the blackboard and the blackboard cleaner to you.”

“Ehhh …oki….”

I don’t like doing it because it’s noisy and the blackboard cleaner is smelly, and I don’t like applying it.

By the way, needless to say, Shizuki was now in gal mode for school.

The tone of voice was not honorific either, I guess it’s a measure in case someone comes back to the classroom.

Of course, the sober mode she’s in when I come to deliver her the food is also beautiful, but this Shizuki has an outstanding glamour.

To be honest, the blackboard work doesn’t suit her at all.

I feel a little bad for leaving it to herself.

“No, it’s fine. I’ll take care of the cleaning, you take care of the logbook.”

“Whaaa …is it okay?”

“Yeah. I’m not good with the logbook, you know.”

“Fufufu~. Yeah, you’re not very good at it.”

“Oii. You have to deny it.”

“Sorry, but it’s something I can’t deny.”

Fufufufu~~ Shizuki chuckled as she sat down at a suitable desk and began to write in her journal.

I’m sure the tone of voice is the same, but the character seems to be very different from the Shizuki who uses honorific tones when I come to make deliveries.

Changing your behavior depending on the place, the situation, and the person you’re talking to… It is just my guess …but it sounds pretty exhausting.

“…It’s kind of weird that we’re talking at school like this.”

“Hmm? Yeah, I guess so.”

“Do ya think they’ll be surprised if someone sees us?”

“Probably. They’ll think we have no connection and yet we are talking with each other.”

In fact, I hardly get involved at all in school.

After I finished cleaning the blackboard, I took out a broom and dustpan from the locker.

All that was left to do was sweep the floor and let Shizuki complete her journal, and my work was done.

“Don’t you have plans with the flashy gals today?”

“Aaaa! you’re calling us that again!”

Shizuki puffed out her cheeks as she said it.

I’m so used to calling them ‘Flashy Gals’ that I’m hoping she’ll let me off the hook.

Besides, I don’t even remember the names of the group members.

“Mouu…~ Everyone seems to be goin’ out to have cake. I turned them down because I was on class duty.”

“Amazing, those normies are so cheerful every day.”

“I know right.”

Shizuki’s reaction was a little surprising.

I thought she was going to get angry again.

“Oh, yeah. Did you fonish reading the manga?”

“Ahh, yeah. Just during lunch today.”

“Ohh Indeed!! You were reading it today, weren’t you?”

“Yeah. The cover that you gave me was also very nice and handy.”

“Really! I’m glad~~”

The book cover I received was indeed the perfect size for the ‘Sixteen Love’ manga.

And I think my classmates were looking at me a lot less.

I was quite grateful for the book cover because it had a nice feel to it and I liked the relaxed design.

“How was it?”

“It was so much fun. I never slowed down my reading pace at all, it was that interesting.”

“That’s right! It ended at a great point, it made me want to read more.”

Hey, hey, she’s back to her honorific mode.

Maybe she’s getting excited and is showing her genuine feelings.

“Right. It’s coming out next month, right?”

“Yes! I’ll lend it to you when I get it.”

“Please! seriously.”

Thank goodness for that.

It’s no longer necessary to buy everything myself, but if I can borrow it, so much the better.

“By the way, how do I get them back to you?”

“Oh, well, right…. Whenever you’re fine with it you can return them back. But how?”

“If you want me to bring it to your house, I can do that today.”

“Oh, you’ll bring it to me?”

“Yeah. I’m the one borrowing it, and you don’t want to go out much, do you? Besides, it’s pretty heavy.”

“…Thank you very much. I’ll see you this evening.”

“Yuuga–! Are you there?”

At that moment, a sullen voice suddenly echoed in the classroom.

I don’t need to look at it.

This is definitely…

“Oh.. ahh… ummm…”

“What! The lonely Yuuga is happily chatting with Shizuki-san!”

For some reason, Senba Haruomi was smiling as he pointed at me and Shizuki.

Don’t be so deliberately surprised, it’s annoying.
