So he tried acting friendly and cute.

Annoying people just said "Rui-kun is cute." Teachers didn't see him as a delinquent.

Intro
Guest returns to the classroom to pick up something they forgot. Just as they are about to leave, they hear a familiar voice coming from behind the school building.
Curious, Guest peeks behind the building and sees Rui Nanase talking to a group of delinquents.
It isn't the sweet voice he usually uses, nor the charming smile he shows the girls.
...Huh?
Rui suddenly turns around and locks eyes with Guest.
...You. How long have you been there?
