The Reason for Speaking Russian
It was Tanahashi, one of our classmates, who appeared there. He was the one who had been hitting on Lida since she first transferred……!
“So that’s the relationship you two had.”
Tanahashi, who was calmly staring at us, approached us. Moreover, his gaze was not on me, but only on Lida.
Tanahashi walked up to me and pushed me away. The situation was too abrupt and I hit my back on the floor…… Ouch. What the heck are you doing, you idiot!
“… Ku.”
“Oojirou! Hey, Tanahashi-san, you’re …… terrible.”
“Hey, you can speak Japanese after all, Lydia.”
“……So what. I mean, can you please stop following me around? Today, I have confirmation that you are a stalker. It seems like you’ve been following me since the first day… Let me be clear, it’s disgusting.”
Don’t tell me that the strange look on her face today was also caused by Tanahashi’s stalking? I guess that was it. I finally understood the situation Lida was in.
Oh right, that’s why Lida was playing it cool by speaking Russian.
I tried to sit up, enduring the intense pain, but in the meantime, Tanahashi had driven Lida to the wall.
“No, no, no. Stop it……. Don’t be violent.”
“From the moment I saw Lydia, …… I’ve been thinking about you. You can be much happier going out with me than with that small fry, Kamishiro. Even you would be better off with me, whose face and personality are renowned for being good.”
“……”
Lida was on the verge of tears.
No, she was crying.
I’ll never forgive him for making her cry or for following her around or for …… anything. I’m sure she was too scared to talk to anyone about it because she couldn’t get any proof that she was being stalked until today.
I was stupid enough to not notice it ……. I charged in with the only self-defense technique I learned from my dad. In the name of self-defense, I pulled Tanahashi off of his feet and swung my fist into his groin, destroying his balls.
“Goooooo!!”
In no time at all, I hit him again!
“Geeeeeee!!”
More fists go in!
“Ahhhh!!”
The fourth and final blow!
Finally, I’ll pull it out with enough force to render him useless!!
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
Finally Tanahashi collapsed, his eyes were white and he was twitching. I immediately called the homeroom teacher, Umenaka, and told him what had happened.

I was prepared to be expelled for this incident, but strangely enough, that was avoided. It was all thanks to Lida telling us what had happened. Tanahashi had been stalking other girls as well and the homeroom teacher seemed to understand the situation to some extent.
“Kamishiro-kun, your attack was too much, but …… the headmaster, the student council president and even the principal and chancellor defended you. According to Lydia’s testimony, you were pushed by Tanahashi and Lydia is aware that you were harmed. In other words, self-defense was recognized. …… But yeah, even though it was self-defense, it was a bit much. Fortunately, Tanahashi’s balls didn’t get crushed, he was …… lucky.”
The homeroom teacher, Umenaka, concluded with a serious face. I was not blamed. Tanahashi had been suspended from school, but there was a possibility that he might be transferred or expelled. At the very least, he may never be able to return to class again.
“Thank you very much. Excuse me.”
“Oh, yes, Kamishiro-kun. I need you to go to the student council room by yourself.”
“……?”
For some reason, he told me to go to the student council room and I headed there.
