Scummy Gap Student ch69: The Scumbag Gets Serious

Now then.
Let's have a long talk
about your relationship.

Satou-san... I've had a detective agency
do a background check on you.

What's all this... about working as a lesbian delivery health girl?

You've got a pretty complicated upbringing too.

I'll just say it up front.

Stay away
from my daughter.

Huuh!?
Don't go deciding that on your-
Makino-chan.

I'll tell you both everything about myself.

As you already know from your investigation...

Investigative Report
Kuzuro Detective Agency (inc)
I have gathered the following information, as per your instructions.

I was abandoned by my parents at a young age and raised in a facility.

After I left the facility,

Can't Show You!

I worked at a brothel to pay off my tuition to Reiwa University
and until recently, I was studying and working at the cram school.

I want to become a clinical psychologist
so I can help kids who grew up in environments like mine.

...

I met Makino-chan in spring
when she requested me through the lesbian brothel.

Afterwards, she requested me again and again

and came to see me at prep school too.

And as we spent more time together,

I was drawn to Makino-chan's cheeriness
and wholeheartedness.

And she gave me emotional support.

I'm taking my feelings for Makino-chan very seriously.

Mashiro-saaaan<3

p10

...

...I see.

I understand that you're more diligent than I took you for, Sato-san.
You're a very smart woman.

Eh? Then...!
That's exactly why

p11

I don't want "a girl who was raised in an abnormal environment" to come near my daughter.
You understand that, right?

p12

Why yooooou! You're just a clump of prejudice, aren't yoooou!?
I assume the reason

is because I'm "a bad influence on your child", yes?

Exactly.
I knew you'd understand.

p13

...Understood.
I'll break up with Makino-chan.
!?

p14

However...

Hanabusa Prep School

Huh~? You're here early, Makinon~!

p15

Hey, hey, listen to this!
Takeuchi-sensei was approached by that guy again~ Looks like they're going on a date!

But y'know~ he seems to be a rich kid, so that's pretty sweet, huh!? I wonder what kind of date they're going on!
Hazuki.
Hm?

Don't talk to me
until I'm done with my workbook.
Kay...

p16

I'll break up with her.

Oh.
You're quite perceptive.
However,

please wait until
the entrance exams are over.

p17

Give me a chance to get into Reiwa University with Makino-chan
and prove that I can be a good influence too.
!?

p18

Afterword
This Autumn, I started playing Pkémon Unte. I got to Master Rank! Games are so fun~~

Scummy Gap Student ch70: Even Scumbags Study

I'll break up with Makino-chan.

However, please wait until the entrance exams are over.
Give me a chance to get into Reiwa University with Makino-chan
and prove that I can be a good influence too.

Hanabusa Prep School

I'll be returning the results of the final mock exam this year...

Hanabusa~
Here!

You've really improved.
Just a little more.
Hah...

Mock Results For Desired School
Desired School: 1. Reiwa University
Pass Rate: C - Just 24

Hmm...
Hrmm...
A C grade...

It's way better than where I was before...
but a C in our cram school is a 40-50% pass rate...

The Reiwa U exams are in two and a half months...
Hmm...
To be honest, it's not looking good...

But...
Give me a chance to get into Reiwa University with Makino-chan
and prove that I can be a good influence too.

Uugh...

...Let's do this.

Makino-chan, it's 1am. You should get some sleep...

No. I've got one more page in me.
Just a little longer...

Ah, are you going to sleep, Mashiro-san?
I've got a standlight, so you can turn off the lights...
No.
Makino-chan...

I'm sorry.
Eh?

I went and said all that...
and put a lot of pressure on you.

Now that I think about it, this is all for my own convenience.
I'm really sor-
No. I'm doing this for myself.

I want to get into the same college as you
and get my mom to apologise.

p10

Have more confidence in yourself, Mashiro-san.
Eh?

Confidence... in myself?

It's been on my mind for a while now.

p11

You're really kind and cute
and have big boo-... erm, brains.
You're clearly some kind of superwoman.

And yet you never seem to have confidence in yourself.
I'm a scumbag.
I assume it's because of the environment your grew up in.

p12

But if I get out of my hopeless situation and pass thanks to you,
maybe that'll boost your self-confidence?

So just you watch!
I'll do my best for your sake, Mashiro-san!

p13

We'll definitely
pass together!

Makino-chan...
Yeah!

I'm really glad
Okay! Let's get to a nice stopping point!!
I met Makino-chan...

p14

Today's work is over,

Makino-chan's studying hard today as ever,

and the mood is all Christmassy...

p15

I want to see Makino-chan's
overjoyed face...

I wonder what would make Makino-chan happy...
Ah.

Maybe
she'll like this...

p16

Afterword
My family caught the Norovirus. T_T
I couldn't do anything for a week so I ended up cutting it close with the manuscript...
I-I'll do my best!!

For a gap student like me,
this is reality...

But Mashiro-san
is taking on more delivery health work than usual.
It's the busy period for delivery health.
She's got reservations from morning til night today...

Waaaaah!!! I'm so jealous!!!! Dammit!!!!

But if I can get into college,
I can have Mashiro-san to myself every day!

For now, I need to study!!

Am I interrupting your studies?
N-No, not at all!!

O-O-Or rather, what's with the outfit...!? Did a customer ask you to wear this...?
Eh?
No.

I picked it out because I thought you'd enjoy it, Makino-chan.

My fave
chose lewd clothes
just for me.

You've been studying really hard,
and it doesn't look like you've had any time to go out and play.

So I figured we could at least enjoy a small Christmas in our home...
Mashiro-saaaan...!

Wah~ So many people!
Yeah. More than I expected. This might take a while.

Sorry for cutting into your study time...
It's fine! It's like a dream getting to go on the first shrine visit with you, Mashiro-san.

Makino-chan...
Huh? Makino?

Ah~ I see!

Hm?

I heard things got rought with Mom.
Did things turn out okay?
No, not really...

...But well,
I should be able to manage on my own.

Makino...

Good girl! You've really changed!

Are you praying for success with your exams?
In that case,

how about we onee-chans go and buy some charms
for our cute little sisters?
Really?
Thank-
No.

I want to be the one
to buy Mashiro-san's charm.

Oh my.
I see.
Makino-chan.

Hey, Sena!
My girlfriend's cute, huh?

Well, I had a feeling that was the case...
but I guess you two are proper lovers now.

Yes, that's right.
I'll introduce your again another time.

I see, I see! Well, take your time, you two!
Have a good year!
You too~

p10

Mashiro-san...
told Sena-san that I was her "lover"...!
Makino-chan.

Once we reach the shrine,
let's enjoy our first shrine visit for just a little bit.
Sure!

I pray that I'll get to have lots of XXX with Mashiro-san this year too...
I pray that we'll both pass.

There's all kinds of colors.

Then let's buy differently colored ones and exchange them.
