"The outside?"

　Liz said, wrinkling her brow.

　The cafeteria was quiet and tense.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, the exterior. I want you to evaluate her appearance."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... can't do that. It's not all about ...... looks."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz said this while giving me a disdainful look.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I knew you would say that!　I was expecting those words!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I like her just the way she is, with no frills."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz raises her voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her followers around her seem to be moved by her words. They are nodding their heads in agreement with Ms. Liz's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm not talking about whether you like her or not, I'm talking about what the world thinks of her. Looks are everything in this world."

You're wrong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Is that so?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes!　Yes!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"People like you, who are disgusting on the inside, should be gone from here."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Suddenly there was a lot of noise. It's like a zoo.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I wish the outsiders would shut up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Did you know that there was an experiment in which people with rags wrapped around their bodies were made to fall by the side of the road while others were dressed neatly?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When I said this, everyone around me became quiet again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After all, they are all well-bred people, aren't they?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What do you think the result was?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I looked at her probingly, and she shut her mouth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　......She's so understanding and smart after all. She is a saint.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"People with tattered rags wrapped around their bodies are always ignored and passed by, but those who are clean and neat are quick to call for help. They're both the same person."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I turned up the corners of my mouth lightly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You know, people choose who they want to live with, subconsciously or not."

"What does that have to do with Emma being unattractive?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... the schoolgirl next to Liz, Emma looks at me, nodding at Liz's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"If I were to rate her appearance, I'd give her a ...... three."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When I said this, Emma made her face look like an apple and opened her mouth wide.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz couldn't believe what I had just said either. Both Emma and Liz look at me with the same expression.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"On the contrary, where did you score?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jill said with a slight sneer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I gave you three points for mercy."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I never thought I'd hear the word 'mercy' come out of Alicia."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's rude."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"She's lovely, and there's not a single thing wrong with her!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz exclaimed, lifting her eyes slightly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I wish I had a picture of our current confrontation. A saint fighting a villainous woman. That's wonderful!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"For an aristocrat, you have a lot of split ends and sticky hair. Her socks have threads coming out of them, and the elastic is very saggy. ...... I don't think I want anything to do with her."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I don't think they want anything to do with me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Emma's eyes light up. Is it hatred, anger, or frustration?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm not saying there's anything wrong with naivete. I just think it's unattractive."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't say things like that when you don't know her well."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It means that people who don't know you well will judge you that way. Some people think I'm creepy because I wear an eye patch. Even if I'm the most beautiful person inside, to someone who doesn't know anything about me, I'm just a creepy b*tc*."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz looked convinced.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Oh!　I think if I keep pushing him, he will change his mind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's not just the way you look, it's the way you act. It makes a big difference whether you pick things up with your legs open or closed. The way you look and the way you act are both indicative of who you are. She did something unattractive and vile ...... and I wonder how many people will silently walk away from her just because of that."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I smile brilliantly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Emma looks a little frightened and backs away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You're lowering your own value."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, if that's the case, we'll fix it in the future."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz said as if she had reopened the door.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... I can take this as you understanding what I'm saying for the moment, right?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's very difficult to change the impression you give people once you've made it. Somewhere along the way, you look at them and think, 'That's the kind of person he is.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I guess you don't have to look at it that way."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's a beautiful thing. Good impressions are made by building them up over time, like ...... Liz. But that impression can be shattered by one little thing you do or say.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"She can ...... change herself right now."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz turns her serious eyes straight to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They are the eyes of someone who truly believes she can be rehabilitated.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She is loved by everyone because she can say that from the bottom of her heart. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Maybe she can. ...... but don't think everyone can."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I said quietly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm your watchdog, Liz, and I need to make sure you know what's going on in the world.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm not ...... certain of what I think, but she needs to know that there are people like this out there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I never thought my voice would be recorded. I guess I'm becoming a big bad girl now that I'm being framed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There's no point in staying here any longer, I'd like to get out of here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　......Oh, yes!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With a huff, I slowly make my way to Emma.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In the silence, only the sound of my walking echoes. It's as if the world revolves around me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Emma looks at me with a little fear in her eyes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Your beloved Liz says you're attractive just the way you are, so why don't you stop hiding your freckles?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I whispered in her ear.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She turned her head and her eyes widened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"How did you ...... know ...... that?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She said this in a faint voice as she looked at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was really just a coincidence that I recognized her. I only saw it faintly when I looked closer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I can't believe Liz didn't notice this either, maybe I'm even better than her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was about to leave the diner.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　My brothers make way for me. Of course, they're looking at me like I'm crazy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Curtis and Duke are still looking at me with amusement. ....... Aren't they at least seventy years old mentally to enjoy such a situation?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Alicia-chan, ...... if you keep this up, you're going to be all alone someday."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Just as I was about to leave the cafeteria, I heard Liz's clear voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm almost all alone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Besides, as long as Jill is by my side, I'll be fine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I know."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I turned around, smiled, and left the diner with Jill.
