The Cute Yandere Next to Me

Chapter 57 New School New Life - Part 4

"Hey Mizuhara, I've got an idea."

"What is it, Kimura?"

"I think we should make our food together, this way we can split the costs."

"That sounds good to me, although what do you eat?" I asked.

"I don't really mind, as long as it tastes decent, I'm fine with it."

"I can make sandwiches every day. That'd probably be the most cost-effective method."

"That's fine with me."

As we walked back to our dorm, we discussed ideas for saving points.

"With such a strict budget, it's definitely best we cooperate," he said.

"Agreed."

On our way back through the schoolyard, we saw Takeuchi and Okamoto walking together. The two of them approached us.

"Hey, guys!" Greeted Takeuchi.

"Hey."

"What classes are you guys in?" Asked Okamoto.

"I'm in 2-A, and Mizuhara's in 2-E," Kimura replied.

"Ah, I'm in 2-B and Take's also in 2-E."

"Isn't it so cool that the school gives us our own allowance to spend?" Commented Takeuchi.

"Yeah, it's a lot of freedom."

"The two of us are just heading over to the commercial area," said Takeuchi.

"Mizuhara and I were just there. We're going back to the dorms."

"Alright then, well, see you guys later."

Our two groups split up, and Kimura and I made our way into our dorm.

We had a look around our room.

There was a small corner kitchen with a few cupboards and a stove with some pans. However, we were also provided with a mini fridge. After checking every part of the room, the two of us decided to go back to the commercial area.

"I reckon there'll be fewer people there now that we've waited a bit."

"Yeah."

"Mhm, let's go down. It's good to know that we have a fridge."

The two of us began making our way back to the commercial zone. As we walked down, we noticed that there were a lot of students who were holding bags of items. From girls holding bags filled with clothes to boys holding bags of different games, it seemed that many students had gone on a shopping spree.

As we got closer to the stores, we noticed that the lines had died down quite a bit.

Kimura and I made our way into the grocery store.

The two of us looked around as we tried to find the most efficient way of feeding ourselves.

They sold bread in bulk at six loaves for 900 points. We also found some cheese at around 30 slices for 550 points, so we got two packets. We got some chicken for 1450 points and some ham as well for 1700 points. Finally, we got a bottle of mayo for 600 points. In total, it was 5850 points for around half a month of sandwiches.

Along with that, we got some fruit, milk and cereal coming to 2700 points.

We each paid 4275 points and left the store with bags filled with groceries.

I opened the Bank app.

"This will last us around three weeks," I said.

"Alright, so it'll be around 6000 or so points each for a month of food."

"Yeah."

The groceries certainly weren't cheap. The value of a point seemed to be a bit less than a cent each based on what I've seen. I wasn't sure what the school was going to do with the students who ran out of points. Maybe there was a penalty of expulsion. I couldn't be sure.

We carried the goods back to our dorm as we packed the meat, milk and cheese into the mini-fridge.

"Ah, that barely fits in our small fridge," Kimura commented.

"Thankfully, we didn't buy more."

After putting our groceries away, the two of us pondered what to do.

"Do you want to go over to the sports centre?"

"Sure, I guess there's not much else to do."

The sports centre has been renovated with a few different courts. It was also open to students all throughout the day and night. However, at the entrance, we saw that there was a 50-point entry fee. I guess this school was dictated by points.

The two of us paid, and we were then let in.

There were a few students inside but not a great deal.

"Well, my main sport is basketball. What's yours?" Kimura said to me.

"Uh, I'm not really that good at any specific one, I guess soccer if I had to choose."

"Ah, I'll play some soccer if you want."

"Sure, I don't really mind either."

Kimura made his way over to the sports shed and grabbed a soccer ball. As we found an empty space in the gymnasium, I was approached by Kanako.

"Hey, Mizuhara."

"Oh, hey there, Kanako. I didn't realise you came to this school now."

"Yeah, my father transferred me over this year."

There was a relatively tough-looking boy standing behind her. He had a pretty unpleasant expression on his face as he looked at us. Kanako noticed that I was looking at him and decided to introduce him to me.

"Ah, this is Fukuda. He's in Class 2-F with me."

"Oh, that's nice."

"What are you guys doing?" She asked.

"We were just going to play some soccer."

"Can we join in?"

"Um, I guess."

"Come on, Fukuda!" She dragged him over, and the four of us kicked the ball around.

We didn't do anything too intense. We simply kicked the ball around for a little bit before Kanako decided to suggest something else.

"There's a volleyball net over there. You guys want to play?"

No one disagreed.

We returned the soccer ball and grabbed a volleyball instead.

"We can do Mizuhara and me against the two of you." Kimura offered.

"I'm fine with that."

With that, our two teams stood on opposite sides of the net. For some reason, I always seem to be the person to serve the ball. Everyone got in position, and I smacked it over the net.

Fukuda dug the ball up for Kanako as she set it up again for him. Just as Fukuda went in for the spike, Kimura jumped up and easily blocked the ball, sending the ball straight back to their side of the court. As the ball bounced on the ground, Fukuda stomped the ground. However, he seemed to be trying to conceal his anger.

We continued playing for around an hour.
