026 It's so pitiful, you've been bullied by them again
Sayuri Ishino had a dream last night.
I dreamed that I turned into a little girl with short hair.
I dreamed that I had a bad relationship with my classmates at school and was often bullied.
Until one day, those classmates who usually bullied her locked her into the third toilet stall after school.
She was helpless and scared, but there was no one in the school after school, and no one could let her out of the toilet.
She started to cry and kept crying until her heart throbbed, she had difficulty breathing, and her world was spinning.
After that, Sayuri Ishino woke up.
This dream frightened Sayuri because she knew that the little girl in the dream was Hanako.
"I was bullied by other classmates and was put in the third stall of the women's toilet. Finally, I died of a heart attack and became an evil spirit in the toilet."
This is one of the more popular versions of the origin stories of Hanako in the Toilet.
Although she had a strange dream and felt very scared, Ishino Sayuri still went to school today.
Because Masao, the little crewhead Nagatomo Masao whom I just met yesterday, said he wanted to have lunch with her at noon.
When I arrived at the classroom in the morning, the atmosphere was a bit strange.
She took the initiative to say hello to Kawano and Matsushima, but the three of them seemed to have passed their breath in advance and ignored her.
Especially Songdao, who even rolled his eyes in return.
This happens, of course, because of what happened last night.
Because that Nagatomo Masao gave up teaming up with Matsushima last night and instead went to try his luck with Ishino Sayuri.
Songdao was very angry.
Although a beautiful girl like her is indispensable for suitors, and she has no regard for Nagatomo Masao, she cannot accept being single like she was last night.
That was simply a humiliation. When had Songdao ever suffered such grievances?
Nagatomo Masao should have tried his best to please her last night and take the lead for her.
And all of this is naturally the fault of this country girl, Sayuri Ishino.
Recess.
Three beautiful girls, headed by Kawano Sae, gathered together and whispered.
Matsushima: "Now that I see Ishino Sayuri's rustic face, I'm very angry! That guy doesn't really think that we want to play with her and treat her as a friend, right?"
Kawano and Matsushima, these three beautiful high school girls, really do not really regard Sayuri Ishino as a friend.
The reason why some scheming beautiful girls are willing to stay with ordinary-looking girls is because they just want to use the latter's ordinaryness and ordinaryness to highlight their own charm.
Kawano: "There's no need to be so angry, Matsushima."
Matsushima: "Of course I'm angry, Shahui. If what happened last night happened to you, your reaction would definitely be more exaggerated than mine!"
Kawano: "Uh... Okay, okay. Anyway, there are many local girls like Ishino who want to curry favor with us and be friends with us."
Sayuri Ishino here.
She didn't hang around three beautiful girls like a gray puppy today.
Instead, she sat quietly in her seat, staring blankly at the Chinese textbook she was going to use in the next class. With Sayuri's mind, she could naturally understand that Kawano, Matsushima and the others were alienating themselves because of what happened last night.
Sayuri felt very wronged.
Why do you do this to yourself?
Obviously, a girl like Matsushima would never like Masao Nagatomo.
But what’s the use of being aggrieved?
The relationship between her and those three glamorous girls has never been equal.
Sayuri Ishino was thinking wildly.
Several boys in the class walked past her and suddenly snatched both of her hearing aids away with their hands.
"hey-hey."
"Ha ha."
After the boys succeeded, they burst into laughter, while Sayuri just froze in her seat.
These boys have relatively bad personalities in the class, but Ishino Sayuri hardly communicates with them.
And it may be because Ishino always stays with the beautiful Kawano and Matsushima, and these boys have never taken the initiative to provoke her.
I don't know why I behaved abnormally today.
"My reaction is so slow. I have a dull look on my face."
"Tsk, tsk, how pitiful you are, girl with glasses. If you don't wear these, you can't hear me, can you?"
"You really shouldn't stay here, you should go to a school for the disabled."
"..."
Several boys were talking jokingly, opening and closing their mouths. But Sayuri Ishino, who had lost her hearing aid, could only see their mouth shapes changing and could not hear clearly what they were saying.
Anyway, it must not be a good thing, right?
"Give it back to me, please."
Sayuri, who had done nothing wrong, lowered her head, held the corners of her clothes with both hands, and spoke as quietly as a mosquito.
"Huh? Louder, deaf girl. Your ears are useless, and you can't even use your mouth, right?"
The boy with the hearing aid in front of him opened and closed his mouth, and then started laughing again.
Sizzling...sizzling...
The sound of current.
The left hearing aid, which was obviously slightly malfunctioning, had been taken away.
But Sayuri Ishino looked at the way the boy's mouth opened and closed in front of her, and there seemed to be a faint sound of electricity in her ears.
Her consciousness began to fade a little.
"You are a little different from other children."
Sayuri Ishino's parents have told her this since she was a child.
And Sayuri knows that the so-called different means abnormal.
In this world, there are many people with visual impairment.
People with visual impairments wear glasses to correct their vision.
There are still many people in this world who are hearing impaired.
People with hearing impairment rarely wear hearing aids to correct their hearing.
Unless you are like Ishino Sayuri, you can hardly hear the sound without wearing it.
People think that wearing glasses is normal and hearing aids is abnormal.
The origin of this idea is simply that there are many people wearing glasses and few wearing hearing aids, that's all.
Because they are few and different from most people, they are special and "abnormal".
Even if you stand in a crowd, you will look out of place and out of place.
Sizzling...sizzling...
The sound of electricity seemed to be coming again.
Sayuri suddenly felt extremely frustrated, and said quietly: "I will never be able to be gregarious."
Like a gray little native dog mixed in with a group of pet dogs with bright hair.
"Hey! Deaf girl, please give me some reaction. What can a person say to himself? You look like this, even bullying you seems so boring!" Those nasty boys were still shouting.
Others in the class had long been attracted by the farce between classes, and they all looked over with different expressions. Some were indifferent, some were sympathetic, and some were just watching the fun.
No one came to stop it.
Under these gazes, Sayuri Ishino felt that her face was hot, her chest was tight, and her heart was aching.
Sizzling...sizzling...
It's still the sound of electricity.
However, this time, a familiar little girl's voice was mixed in with the sound of electricity: "It's so pitiful...are you being bullied by them again?"
