"I'm sorry... I do... blackmailed classmates..."

Yagawa Sakufumi lowered his head, as if someone had picked out his tongue with his hand, and reluctantly said this sentence.

The entire courtroom fell silent—they had fallen silent for an unknown number of times today.

"What's going on?!" Suddenly, a student in the auditorium couldn't help but ask loudly, "Yachuan-san, you... Have you really done such a thing?! ”

The judge also knocked on the wooden crumble in surprise, and after a moment of relaxation, he asked hesitantly, "Yachuan-san... What do you mean... Admit the accusations of Kyushu-san? ”

"Well, that's right." Yachuan Sakuwen glanced at Makoto Kyushu with a weak heart, and his eyes were so dim that he couldn't see any light: "Kyushu-san's right, I did threaten him... Use the authority of the Department of Public Information. ”

"Is there anyone else but me?" Kyushu Cheng asked in a deep voice: "How many are there?" ”

"Also... And also... Eight..."Saki Bunmuna nodded and reluctantly admitted: "Five were given to me by senior Adachi, and three were found by me this semester." ”

At this time, a short and fat boy in the auditorium raised his hand hesitantly and shouted in a trembling voice: "That... I... In fact, I was blackmailed by the Ministry of Information! ”

"Oh~ Why was it blackmailed?" Makoto Kyushu looked at the boy and asked.

"Because... Because..."The puppy boy blushed, and finally made up his mind to speak: "I was selling adult discs at school, and I was found out by the Ministry of Information... And then... They asked me to fund the club for them every month... I'm almost out of living now..."

If it were a normal day, all the students present would probably be around and laughing at him. But at this moment, no one could laugh.

"Eh~ It is indeed a violation to sell adult discs in schools, but it is only to the extent of reviewing sanctions and confiscating prohibited items." Kyushu Cheng stared at Yachuan Sakiwen, his eyes were like torches: "You let the Ministry of Information blackmail you for so long, isn't it even more worth the loss?" ”

Immediately afterwards, Kyushu Cheng glanced at the auditorium again, and asked sharply: "Among the students present, have any of them been blackmailed by the Ministry of Information?" Now is your last chance to save yourselves! ”

After a moment of sighing in the audience, two more classmates raised their hands.

"I guess all the teachers here have seen it too, right?" Makoto Kyushu glanced at the teachers in the auditorium and said, "No matter what mistakes these students make, they should not be blackmailed. I have to ask the teachers to deal with this matter properly~"

Immediately afterwards, Kyushu Makoto asked again: "Yachuan-san, may I ask about my work in the public relations shop, is it your news department that spread rumors?" Were those photos taken by accident or on purpose? ”

Yagawa Sakumi was about to bite out the blood of his mouth, so he had to admit: "That post was written by our news department, and the photo was taken secretly by the department." ”

Makoto Kyushu asked again: "So did anyone in the Ministry of Information see me working as a cowherd in a public relations shop?" ”

Sakufumi Yagawa replied: "Our information department only took a photo, and no one saw Makoto Kyushu working in the store with their own eyes..."

"Very good, good boy~" Kyushu Makoto snapped his fingers and flipped out a photo from his phone.

This is a photo of Makoto Kyushu's shoe cabinet stuffed with a prank note after the "Cowherd Exposure Post" appeared.

"Do you know who did it?" Makoto Kyushu's eyes burned.

"It's... I asked the staff to do it. Yagawa Sakumi's face was like ashes, and he bowed his head and replied.

"Was it to put pressure on me and give me the illusion that I was being isolated by the whole school?" Makoto Kyushu asked.

“... Yes..."Sakumi Yagawa nodded reluctantly: "Are there any other questions..."

Makoto Kyushu looked around the courtroom room. The teachers and students present were stunned by the self-exposure of this [news queen], and the audience was silent. Even the chairman of the board of directors showed sharper eyes than before.

"There is one more question~" Makoto Kyushu narrowed his eyes and asked meaningfully:

"Are these acts involving only the core cadres of the Department of Public Information, or are all members of the Department of Public Information complicit?"

This question made Sakifumi Yagawa stunned for a moment.

Her gaze swept over the other DPI members in the courtroom classroom. But seeing that most of them were pale, trembling in two ways, they asked the minister for help with frightened eyes.

"..."Yagawa Sakuwen sighed silently, shook his head and said, "It's all my fault, and it has nothing to do with anyone else." ”

Hearing this, the members of the Department of Public Information in the gallery breathed a sigh of relief.

Minister Yachuan seems to be ready to take all the responsibilities alone, so that the other members of the ministry will not be affected.

That's a smart move. At least in this way, the school will only hold [Sakufumi Yagawa] accountable for one person, not the entire [Information Department].

Minister Yachuan may resign and be punished, depriving the Department of Public Information of a capable leader. However, the reputation and status of the Department of Public Information can be preserved, and it will be able to make a comeback if the limelight has passed.

And Sakufumi Yagawa will still be admired by the members of the Ministry of Information for his feat of taking responsibility alone.

"Are you ready to be a good person one last time?" After hearing this, Kyushu Cheng couldn't help but laugh angrily: "You are the mastermind, that's right!" But what about the others? Don't they deserve to be punished?! ”

"These things are my own doing, and they are all my responsibility!" Yagawa Sakumi also asked angrily, "What else do you want?" ”

"I mean, all the members who know about your plans and are still willing to help you will be punished as well!" Kyushu Cheng shouted eloquently:

"What about Tetsuya Yamamoto, who came with you to 'interview' me that day?! Dequeue! ”

Senior Yamamoto, who was hiding in the auditorium, suddenly shrunk his neck in fright and squatted down like an ostrich: "Didn't you call me Senior Yamazoi... Don't suddenly call me by name at a time like this..."

"And Koizumi-san, who is in the second class of our second year, you called me for an interview, right?" Kyushu Makoto unceremoniously began to report the name:

"And Ichiro Higashino, who is in charge of taking pictures, you also give me a list! You must all know Minister Yachuan's plan, all of which are aiding and abetting! ”

Sure enough, the two students from the news department, who were still watching the play in the auditorium, suddenly became the focus of others. Under the gaze of everyone, the two showed aggrieved expressions that were more ugly than crying, and stood stupidly in place motionless.

"What the hell are you going to do!" Sakufumi Rakukawa is about to collapse. She didn't expect Kyushu Cheng to be so serious, as if she wanted to try the entire news department in front of all the teachers and students of the school.

"I want you to tell me all about the inside of the Department of Public Information!" Kyushu Cheng said angrily:

"Including who is in the know, who is unaware of the Department's extortion. How many bad things have you done, which classmates have you hurt, and who else have you colluded with! ”

"Do you really have to do this... Makoto Kyushu..."Sakumi Yagawa took a deep breath.

"Did you ever feel any remorse when the Department of Information treated me like that?" Kyushu Cheng slapped the table violently, and pointed the finger at the silent Zhou Fangwuwen on the prosecutor's bench:

"Student Zhou Fang, your Discipline Committee is the organization responsible for picketing students' disciplinary violations, right?"

Zhou Fang Wuwen raised his head painfully and responded: "Yes, yes..."

"In that case, you should be on the same side as me, right?" Kyushu Makoto raised his eyebrows and asked, "Sakumi Yagawa and the Ministry of Information have committed an unpardonable crime, and I am also a victim of them. Don't you have anything to say? ”

"I... Our Discipline Committee will definitely intervene to investigate this matter, please don't worry about Kyushu students..."Zhou Fangwuwen could only answer stubbornly.

"You're going to get business, right?" Kyushu Cheng clenched his nerve and continued to ask: "I heard that the relationship between the Discipline Committee and the Ministry of Information has always been very good~"

"Yes! We'll take it to business! Looking at the teachers and students in the audience, Zhou Fang Wuwen was so frightened that he put his fist on his heart and swore on the spot:

"Our Discipline Committee will picket to the end, and this kind of club must take a heavy punch and not let it continue to pollute the campus atmosphere!"

Hearing this, Kyushu Makoto applauded lightly, as if to say to the teachers and students of the school: "It's really good~ With such a diligent and responsible discipline committee for the sake of students, Xiuyan Academy is really a great school~"

Zhou Fangwuwen and the other members of the Discipline Committee present all turned pale when they heard this. They knew that Makoto Kyushu was mocking them with compassion, but they could only grit their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs.

What a mad dog in the truest sense of the word... Some members of the Discipline Commission commented on Kyushu Makoto in their hearts.

After everything that should be done, Kyushu Cheng bowed to everyone like an actor on the curtain call, and then said to the judge:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Judge~ I accidentally wasted everyone's time by advocating without permission, but I think it's time for the jury to make the final decision."

"Whether I'm guilty or not, it all depends on whether the jury is wise~"

The judge struck the gavel three times, sighed for some reason, and asked, "Jury, what is your result?" ”

This may have been the last dead silence in the atmosphere, and everyone was focused on the jury bench.

Soon, nearly sixty percent of the jury members raised their hands in support of "not guilty."

The judge counted, but gradually frowned: "I'm sorry, Kyushu classmates, the current number is still one person short of sixty percent." ”

Kyushu Makoto also sighed slightly, but he was also a little relieved. For him, the main purpose of this "academic referee" is to drag the Ministry of Information into the water, and proving his innocence is secondary.

At this moment, Tang Zegui, who was in the auditorium, suddenly grabbed the railing and shouted, "Hey! The two members of the Ministry of Information on the jury did not raise their hands, you are not trying to shield the minister, do you? ”

Yuhito Suzuki also had an idea, and shouted angrily: "It's not fair! Why would someone from the Department of Public Information be on a jury? They're criminals, too! ”

Genji Takatsuki also shouted impatiently: "Hey! Where is there a criminal on a jury? ”

Hearing this, the auditorium began to talk and commotion again.

"Silence! Quiet! The judge and teacher struck the gavel in dissatisfaction and hurriedly reprimanded: "Observers are not allowed to interfere with the courtroom!" Get these three students out! ”

Several student council members wearing armbands walked up to the trio and led them out of the courtroom with half a push and half a persuasion.

However, thanks to their trouble, the two members of the Ministry of Information in the jury finally lost their faces and raised their hands - the most important thing for them now is to protect themselves, even if they are immediately cut off from the Ministry of Information, they cannot be accused of "accomplices".

"So, the number of people is exactly more than sixty, right?" Makoto Kyushu asked with a smile.

"Hey...", the judge teacher looked helpless. But at this point, he was not willing to continue to maintain this chaotic court.

"Since more than 60 percent of the jury members upheld the defendant's 'innocence,' the verdict was pronounced," the judge picked up a folder and pretended to declare:

"The defendant is not guilty of Makoto Kyushu! There is not sufficient evidence for his claim that he worked as a cowherd in a custom shop! ”

"Adjournment!"
