Chapter 10:

The second player

I won the romcom, but the fandom hates me so I was sent back in time to become best girl


Everyone stared in shock as I leveled the accusation against Iroha.

"And how is this my fault?" Iroha asked.

"You drugged me with that soda you gave me earlier!" I shouted.

"Drugged!? What are you two talking about!?" Yoshi asked in confusion.

"*Sigh* I get everyone's on edge, but could you all please calm down. I'm not arresting anyone here. We barely even have any evidence as is," the officer stated.

Suddenly, he received a call. Just like last time, it was about a break in at the school.

"You're Yona correct?" he asked as he approached me.

"Yes."

"You're under arrest for suspicion of theft and murder," he declared as he cuffed me.

"MURDER!?"

"Yes, your collaborators snitched on you."

"What are you even talking about!? I didn't murder anyone!"

"But you did order your collaborators to murder this girl just now."

Wait, Sara's murder is connected to the break in!? But who are the collaborators?

"Who are the collaborators!?" I asked.

"Your friends Kimura Taijin and Eishi Rindo."

HUH!? Those were those two delinquents I got in a fight with a few months ago. If I remember correctly, they were constantly stalking Miyuu and Yoshi confronted them. However, he got beaten up, and in my rage, I found the two and beat them up. I know they hate me, but I think they fear me more. They always go on guard and act nervous and nice when I approach. Now that I think about it, weren't they reformed and honest working by the time of my wedding?"

"I haven't even seen those two today!" I declared.

"Yeah, she doesn't have classes with them, and I'm pretty sure those two leave the school before we all do," Yoshi stated.

"It also doesn't make sense why she'd order them to kill Sara. I mean, in gym class, she was apologizing to Sara like crazy," Fumiyo stated.

"I bet she was just setting her up. You know she's the only one those two bastards 'll listen to," Miyuu glared.

"Just like Miyuu said, you're the only one that could have ordered them to do it," Iroha stated.

"You probably disguised yourself as me! That's why you knocked me out!" I shouted.

"True, I could probably look similar to you if I tried, but I'd have to do much more work compared to if I wanted to look like Fumiyo. I'm not identical in appearance like the three of you after all."

I then smacked my head into Iroha's in order to open up the fandom.

Iroha rubbed her forehead in pain as she gazed oddly at me. Fumiyo and Miyuu both looked shocked while Yoshi and Yukino looked confused. My father and the officer just gave me blank stares.

As for the fandom,

"Murder mystery?"

"I think it's Iroha. She's been hanging out with Sara and she DID give Yona that drugged soda."

"Oh yeah, it looked like the bottle had already been opened when Yona grabbed it."

"I know she arrived home late, but I think that's just a red herring to make us think it's Yona."

"Iroha must pay for this!"

Looks like the fandom is taking my side on this. But I still want to save Sara.

I decided to go back to my previous save point. Just like last time. Everything stopped before spinning around rapidly.

*Bonk*

"OW!"

I had accidentally slammed the locker door into my head. I rubbed my head and gazed up at the fandom I had accidentally summoned.

*Poll rank 5, restored to save point*

I had gone back in time to gym class just like before.

                                                                             ...

As I ran around the field, I once again saw Sara and Iroha setting up posters. This time, I decided not to run up to them.

                                                                           ...

During practice, Iroha approached me with a soda bottle.

"Ara ara. Looks like you're working up a sweat. How about a drink?" she smiled.

I swatted the bottle out of her hands and glared at her, startling her.

"Is this because of what I tried to do in Kyoto? I'm sorry OK. Please don't hate Onee-san."

"BULLSHIT! I know you're gonna try and murder Sara and frame me!" I shouted.

"Yona... What are you talking about? Are you alright?"

"NO! I'm sick and tired of you ruining our lives! How could you do that to your own friends and family!?"

"Yona! Why are you fighting with Iroha so much!?" Miyuu asked as she approached us.

"Because she wants to kill us all off so she can be together with Yoshi!" I replied.

"You've lost it. Iroha's our sister. She could never do something so horrible."

"Um, when we were little she'd always bully us."

"And in Middle school you treated Me and Fumiyo like crap because you thought you were superior to us."

"That's in the past! I've changed and reformed!"

"Yeah, and maybe Iroha has too! Ugh, she brought you a drink and you just knocked it aside!"

"It's drugged with sleeping pills."

Miyuu growled and picked up the soda bottle. She unscrewed the cap and placed it in her pocket before taking a sip.

"Bu- Bleh! I hate soda. But look at me. I'm fine. Here, you can drink it now," Miyuu growled as she screwed the cap back on and shoved the bottle in my hand.

I reluctantly unscrewed the cap and ended up chugging the whole bottle.

"Hmm I guess-UGH!"

Just like last time, things started to go fuzzy. Before I blacked out, I could make out Miyuu swaying from side to side like she was going to pass out.

                                                                             ...

I opened my eyes, but saw nothing but darkness. It felt like there was something covering my eyes. I attempted to move, but my arms and legs were bound.

"MMPH! MMPH!?"

I realized I was also gagged when I tried to call for help. Bound, gagged, blindfolded, WAIT DID I JUST GET KIDNAPPED!?

"MMPH MMPH MMPH MMPH!" I screamed.

Sadly, I was struggling to no avail. Even with my abnormal strength, I couldn't break free of whatever was binding me. I then rubbed my face against the ground in an attempt to get my blindfold off.

I was successful and gazed around at my surroundings. I was in the athletic shed on the field. I then looked down at my ankles to see that they had been bound with some kind of zip ties. Since I was gagged with a piece of tape, I couldn't finesse it off like I did the blindfold. I guess this meant I'd have to wait until someone found me.

                                                                               ...

It felt like an eternity, but finally, someone opened the door.

"Hey look it's Miyuu all gift wrapped," a male voice sneered.

To my horror, it was Kimura and Eishi. Wait, why did they call me Miyuu!?

"Yep, just like Madam said, all tied up. Think we should bolt with her?" Kimura asked.

"No, we should have our fill with her here. We just murdered that bitch Sara and broke into the school. Madam did tell us to tell the cops that she ordered the hit, and that we could have our fill with Miyuu so long as we don't untie her or remove her gag and kill her before the cops arrive," Eishi stated.

WAIT KILL!? AND SARA'S ALREADY DEAD!?

"MMPH MMPH MMPH!" I screamed as I desperately struggled to get away.

"Oh yeah, don't let her smack her head on something either, whatever that means," Eishi growled as he charged towards me.

BANG MY HEAD!? NO it can't be.

I smacked my head on the ground as fast as I could to open the fandom.

"SHIT we gotta smack her head again," Eishi growled as he grabbed me by the hair.

"MMPH MMPH MMPH! (TAKE ME BACK)!" I shouted.

Just as my head was about to hit the ground again, everything stopped before it began spinning quickly.

*Bonk*

"OW!"

I had accidentally slammed the locker door into my head. I rubbed my head and gazed up at the fandom I had accidentally summoned.

*Poll rank 5, restored to save point*

I had gone back in time to gym class for the third time now.

I stood in front of the locker and thought about what transpired. I had been tied up in the shed, and Iroha had disguised as me in order to get those goons to commit crimes in my name. Though why were they calling me Miyuu? I don't wear those hair clips- _! Miyuu was knocked out too. I bet Iroha made me look like Miyuu. Plus if I was gagged, those goons wouldn't be able to recognize me by my voice. But what bothered me most was that they were trying to stop me from summoning the fandom. Don't tell me, Iroha can also see the fandom.
