Mason dashed to catch up with the school guard. His action somehow delayed the school guard, leaving me to do my small task and giving me enough window time to execute my mission.

I went straight in the opposite direction from Mason, heading to the Club building. I checked my watch and found that it was already 6.50 A.M.

Fuck, Mason had taken almost all of my time. The students must be coming soon, and if I didn't hurry, I might not execute the mission smoothly.

When the Club building was right in front of me, I looked to my left and right, in case there was someone already entering the place.

But I didn't find anyone, much to my relief. I rushed to the Club building and entered.

There was no time to waste, so I immediately unzipped my backpack and then started using the glue stick all across the wall. Since the time didn't allow me to be careful, I just plastered the printouts at random spots, I just needed it to be quick, so I could get the hell out as soon as possible.

I worked at the quickest and messiest pace I've ever done, and after I was done. I headed back to the main entrance of the Club building.

But then, I could hear the scream of someone from the corridor, "OH MY GOD, WHAT IS THIS?!"

"Is this real?!" another girl added to the conversation.

I checked my watch, and it was already 7.20.

These students must've come early and headed straight to the Club building for whatever they wanted to do. I froze on the spot for a second, trying to find the best way to leave the Club building unnoticed. As soon as those two people found out about the printouts, one of them said:

"Holy crap, this is totally real! Mira just texted me, and she said that the main corridor was filled with these printouts, and they're more than just these!"

Ah, so people had found out about it from the main corridor. I wondered if Kristen had also found out about it, but she should be coming a bit later. Judging from her daily schedule, she should arrive at around 8 or 8.30.

But maybe she would come earlier once someone texted her about what they found.

"Go and call Mira now. We need the tea!" One girl said, and I could hear her footsteps with the other girl getting closer in my direction.

I panicked and looked around, searching for a place to hide. I didn't want to get suspected. Even just with a bit of suspicion might turn into slander that could ruin me in the future.

As I kept looking around, I saw the same small storage room that I used before, when I talked with Mason for the first time in this life.

I immediately hid inside and waited until the girls' chatter and footsteps started fading away. I wanted to use Helena's phone, but the Wifi was only available in the main building, not this one.

After a while, I opened the door slowly and peeked around. Those girls had probably entered their club because I couldn't see them anywhere, and after making sure, I slowly came out and left as soon as possible.

Nobody was around when I left the Club building, but I could definitely see few students around the main building. I walked at a considerable pace, acting as natural as I could because I was afraid someone would notice me if I was rushing.

I passed students who were glued on their phones and then started gossiping, the news must've begun to spread around like a wildfire, and I needed Kristen's reaction in this.

I entered the bathroom stall and opened Helena's phone. There was a text from Kristen. It was delivered last night, apparently.

—

Kristen: I swear I will fucking kill you if I find something tomorrow morning. You and Cerise are dead!

Kristen: I will make sure that Cerise told me about your name, and you two are dead!

—

Ah, of course, I would be dead if Cerise told you. But the thing was, I knew something about Cerise that would always make her mouth shut.

It was the 'power of friendship.'

Cerise was that kind of gullible girl who believed in the power of friendship. Just like what Kristen did before, she used her 'power of friendship' to hide evidence about her involvement with Helena's death.

And now, I used the same method, with the same tool, to bring her down. This was justice for Helena and sweet revenge for me.

Thus, I texted her:

—

Helena: Oh, Kristen, dear. You should come to school early. I have a big surprise for you, this is my gift for our friendship.

—

I was about to turn off Helena's phone, and then I got a text from her. It seemed that Kristen was already on her way to the school.

—

Kristen: What did you do?!

Helena: Oh, you should check it out yourself. It's a big surprise, so the whole school knows how much of an evil bitch you are.

—

Helena's phone rang, and it was a call from Kristen.

I picked up the call but said nothing. I thought that Kristen would also say nothing like before. But she actually started rambling.

"I—I swear to god, if you're doing something, then I will kill you. You bitch! You and Cerise are dead! DEAD!"

I heard her trembling voice that showed how terrified and anxious she was right now. She was no different than Cerise at this point.

Oh, and it was funny how she kept saying 'I swear to god' while she kept threatening me.

I kept my silence, listening to her continued rambling on and on. I could hear the sound of car honks from her, so she must've been inside her car right now.

I ended up the phone call once I heard someone entered the bathroom, and then I texted Kristen:

—

Helena: I will make sure that you will be ruined, Kristen Suite. Just like how you ruin me.
