Chapter 240: Yagi Miyuki’s Memorial Service
“Before announcing the news, I would like to offer a sincere apology to everyone. The situation was sudden, and we had to make this decision.”
Listening to the broadcast, Yagi Miyuki glanced at his sister Michako beside him, who was looking down at the ground with a stiff, guilt-ridden face. He asked curiously, “What’s wrong, Michako?”
“No, nothing.”
Michako, like a startled deer, hastily raised her head and waved her hands dismissively. The thought of facing even crueler treatment than last night at home made her unable to stay calm.
“Is that so.”
Yagi Miyuki nodded, but as he listened to Mizuki Haruna’s voice echoing through the school’s speakers, his unease grew.
“After deliberation by the school festival executive committee and the student council, we have unanimously decided to postpone today’s bonfire party to tomorrow…”
“Oh, then it’s fine.”
Yagi Miyuki breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn’t care much about the bonfire party; even if it were cancelled, it wouldn’t matter. Besides, he remembered that such an event often came with boring high school myths that could cause hormonal surges among adolescents, possibly troubling him.
This was good news. If it was postponed to tomorrow, when he planned to take a leave, he could avoid two bothersome activities.
Yagi Miyuki was nodding in satisfaction, but Mizuki Haruna’s next words drastically changed his expression.
“The St. Cronia miss contest, scheduled for tomorrow, will be held today instead. Interested students and parents can head to the venue—the gymnasium—by 1:30 PM.”
“No, this can’t be!”
Yagi Miyuki’s face went pale, and he was stunned, feeling as if the world was conspiring against him.
The contest moved to today? This was too sudden! Was his plan to take leave already falling apart? Why…
Yagi Miyuki felt a wave of despair.
St. Cronia Miss contest? No, no, this was like a memorial service for Yagi Miyuki!

Not only would Ninomiya-senpai and others create chaos, but Narase Mero might wield a kitchen knife, and the audience, thinking he had turned the school into a harem, might even assassinate him!
Why had this happened? Such a significant event should have been notified days in advance! It felt like someone was scheming against him.
Wait—
Reluctantly accepting this, Yagi Miyuki suddenly had a flash of insight and slowly turned to look at Michako.
At this moment, Michako was looking down, as if something on the ground was captivating her. Despite being a contestant, she showed no surprise at the news, as if… she had expected this outcome.
“Michako.”
Yagi Miyuki looked at her suspiciously. Michako, trembling under his gaze, responded in a low voice, “Did you already know about this? And… you guessed that I didn’t want to come to school tomorrow, right?”
“Hmm?”
Michako looked up cautiously at her brother, blinked her big eyes, and put on an innocent smile, pretending not to hear Yagi Miyuki’s question, trying to cutely dodge the issue.
Yagi Miyuki’s eye twitched, more certain of his suspicion, “You orchestrated this contest being moved forward, didn’t you?”
“No… it wasn’t me.”
Michako quickly shook her head, looking pitifully at her brother, feeling pain in the spot where she had been disciplined the day before.
Seeing Michako’s timid behavior, Yagi Miyuki realized the effectiveness of stick education.
“Come to my room when we get home today.”
Yagi Miyuki said sternly.
He felt Michako had gone too far, secretly setting him up again. No matter how much she begged today, he had to teach her a lesson.
“No, please don’t!”
Michako, on the verge of tears, shook her head vigorously.
If her brother had said this before, she would have been overjoyed, but now it clearly meant he was going to punish her!
Cursed Ninomiya-senpai!

Michako gritted her teeth in her mind.
Ninomiya-senpai had everything under control but still called them for a meeting. This was probably to drag them down with her if things went south, sharing the blame.
Realizing she would face the same fate as last night, Michako blurted out without hesitation, “It wasn’t just me.”
Unwilling to take the fall alone, especially since they all planned it together, she decided they should all face her brother’s room tonight. Although, that sounded a bit off.
“Oh? Who else was involved?”
Yagi Miyuki’s eyebrows twitched.
His tone implied there were accomplices. He could guess who they might be.
“I… if I tell you, can you be a bit gentler?”
Michako asked cautiously.
“The bench in the grove is a nice place.”
Yagi Miyuki threatened, but of course, he wouldn’t actually take his sister to a grove to punish her in broad daylight.
“I want it to be at home.”
Michako’s eyes filled with tears, and without hesitation, she accused, “Ninomiya-senpai is the main culprit!”
She felt no guilt in betraying her rival, especially since Ninomiya-senpai had dragged her into this. The main culprit deserved the worst punishment!
As expected…
Yagi Miyuki’s mouth twitched.
He knew that only Ninomiya-senpai could orchestrate something of this magnitude.
“Is there anyone else? It’s not just you two, right?”
Yagi Miyuki asked expressionlessly.
He believed that Ninomiya-senpai wouldn’t conspire with Michako alone. It was likely their allies, Hoshino and Manyu, were also involved.
“No, there’s no one else.”
Michako thought for a moment and then shook her head.
Besides Ninomiya-senpai, everyone else was more like “victims”. The quick discovery was due to her recent punishment by her brother, which made her act too guiltily. She decided not to drag them into it.
Although she felt that even if she concealed it now, her brother would eventually find out.
Were Hoshino and Manyu also involved?

Seeing Michako’s hesitant expression, Yagi Miyuki understood, but he couldn’t remain calm.
What should he do now?
Yagi Miyuki fell into deep thought.
If he pretended to be sick, since he was already at school, he’d need to visit the infirmary for a check-up and get a sick note, which seemed unlikely to succeed. Could he only wait for his doom on stage?
“Um… brother.”
Seeing her brother looking distressed, Michako couldn’t help asking, “Why are you so reluctant to host the contest? It’s not a big deal, right? If you’re worried about taking wedding photos with one of us, why care about others’ opinions?”
Michako seemed to understand her brother’s worries and tried to convince him with emotion and reason, hoping to avoid sleeping on her stomach tonight.
“I remember a line from an ancient poem I studied, which roughly goes, ‘Ask the gentleman how he can do this, for when the heart is distant, the land becomes slanted.’ If you don’t care, brother, then it doesn’t matter how much others envy or hate you, right?”
“And mediocrity is not envied. You’re so outstanding, brother; it’s normal to be the center of attention. There’s no need to deliberately avoid it. Why not accept it with a clear conscience?”
