"Eh, why am I here? OH"
Klein was having trouble sleeping so he decided to go outside and clear his head like what he did in chapter 16. He also decides to hang himself upside down on the monkey bar and proceeds to fall from it.
When he's done, he walks back home but comes across a shrine. Now that he noticed this was not the way home, he went up to the shrine and saw a group of...delinquents having a meeting.
'...Edward is there, wow.'
"Today, our main topic is about ISA Academy. Yes, they're an elite school...but they also have troublesome students that decide to bother our peace and beat the President's younger brother! We have to do something about this!"
Klein sat on the stair while listening to their meeting. Seems like something coming out from an anime but hey, he's not here to judge.
"The Vice President has suggested that we beat anyone from that school that walks around our territory!"
"I agree!"
Everyone starts to scream and cheer while Klein covers his ears. 'Someone needs to shut them up.' Then, he saw Edward helping a guy to wear his coat?
'Oh, there's a word saying president so that is the president. So Edward is the vice then?'
He decides to walk away when they wrap up the meeting and leave one by one. Klein finally reached his house and went to his computer. This is a blessing from God because he saw something that can be written.
He can't wait to stalk them more.

Next day, he went to school and saw the school student council president walking to his room with a bandage. Woo Young pops up next to Klein silently and pokes him.
"Boo! What cha watchin?"
"The president."
"Oh right! You should start reading our school website. They said that our president got attacked by some delinquent from the elite school."
This is such an easy way to know that the president might be the gang president's brother. Wow, they're completely different, like water and oil.
But Klein respects that the guy still comes to school despite such conditions. Just exactly like the character that he writes! You know, the one that makes Klein stressed and passed out? Yeah, that character.
"Guys. What are you doing standing in the middle of a busy hall?"
"Klein here is interested about why our president is in such state."
Woo Young and Han show Klein a suspicious expression but he brushes them off and goes to his class. He saw a group of girls taking selfies facing the door which is the door he entered so he showed a peace sign and sat down.
The girls checked their photo and found Klein photobombing them. This should be a blessing for them today and they decide to post it on the school website.
'Guess who joined us in a group selfie!'
7644: F*CK! I WANT TO BE IN YOUR CLASS NOW!
1250: Sister, I am your friend now! No choices given!
0043: I don't know Klein is this sly...joining a group selfie from far!
9997: How can I not notice this funny guy's existence?
Klein pulled out his laptop and started writing again. Hana waves at him before continuing writing her own notes. She's working hard unlike certain people.
Right when lunch time arrived, Klein went to the rooftop and met with yet another new face. His friends are not here yet so he awkwardly sat down far away from the president.
"...Klein from class E. Second year. Do you always eat here?"
"...Yes. With my friends."
"I see."
"Yeah."
They both sweatdrop at each other's communication skills. Seems like it was the first time the president went to the rooftop at lunch time. He looked at the spot on the rooftop and saw another group of students eating happily.
"You don't have friends?"
Klein's question caught him off guard and not gonna lie, it hurts his pride.
"Who wants to even be friend with someone like me."
"Your name?"
"Y-You! How can you not know my name!"
Klein moved his eyes away from the older guy. He doesn't even know his homeroom teacher's name. Don't feel offended.
"My name is Jamie."
"Okay, Mr Prez. You can sit with us."
"Why did I bother giving my name if you're going to call me that."
He sat down next to Klein and started eating his chocolate bar that Klein never noticed in his hand before. Klein is a pretty blunt guy so he asks the question immediately.
"Did you really get hit by a delinquent from another school?"
"Yes-"
He saw Klein pull out a notebook and the guy asked him how it happened. Is he getting interrogation by this guy right now? He has a weird hobby that no one can explain. The others finally got their food and saw Klein talking with Jamie.
Han knew his boss just found something for his book which made Han take the notebook from Klein's hand. Klein looks at Han and asks for his notebook but the assistant smacks his head and asks him to eat.
This is totally normal for everyone and they start eating while trying to hold their laughter.
Jamie was startled when Woo Young gave him and Edward a chocolate parfait. If anything, he's feeling very weird out with how they act around him. How can he never notice this group of friends that was the talk among the students?
Edward, who knew Jamie, as his president's younger brother, was glad that Klein befriended the silent guy. He knew if the president was here, he must've been proud that his brother is getting friends.
"Guys! Let's go to the new cat cafe after school!"
Han suggested and Woo Young happily agreed. The others already agree but then they look at Klein and Jamie. It was surprising that they invited Jamie.
"No thanks." Both Klein and Jamie answered at the same time.
"Aw come on! You two are boring!"
"I am busy." Both of them answered again
"Are you secretly twins-"

Han: Let me test this. What are the best colour combinations you guys can think of?
???: White and black.
Klein: ah, he said it first
Jamie: no you said it first
