10. Probably.Copy !req
11. Yeah, that's definitely 1-A.Copy !req
12. What's going on there?Copy !req
13. Who knows? I'll bet Omichi's lost it again.Copy !req
14. Is that Chitanda?Copy !req
15. Alright, alright, let's carry on then.Copy !req
16. Where was I again?Copy !req

55. A Deadly SinCopy !req
56. A Deadly SinCopy !req
57. A Deadly SinCopy !req
58. A Deadly SinCopy !req
59. You're the one who said you were going to do it!Copy !req
60. Please calm down, Mayaka-san...Copy !req
61. Quiet, Chii-chan.Copy !req
62. Maybe you have a reason, but that's besides the point!Copy !req
63. Oh right, Mayaka-san!Copy !req
64. You could have at least called me or something!Copy !req
65. Would you like some cookies?Copy !req
66. This could have been avoided if you had just contacted me!Copy !req
67. I know you had your cell phone with you!Copy !req
68. I know! How about I go get some milk?Copy !req
69. It'd be fine if it were just a hassle for me, but it's not!Copy !req
70. What's with that look?Copy !req
71. Listen to me!Copy !req
72. Do you understand your position here?Copy !req
73. Chitanda Eru doesn't know when to quit.Copy !req
74. This won't be fixed just by saying sorry to me.Copy !req
75. And I know you're aware of it,Copy !req
76. but you don't have a shred of decency when it matters.Copy !req
77. Don't even bother.Copy !req
78. You didn't say anything, even though you knew what would happen.Copy !req
79. After that, it rained, it was windy, there was lightning, and even hail fell in the end!Copy !req
80. I spent time picking what to wear, and all of a sudden they're a wreck!Copy !req
81. And it's all your fault!Copy !req
82. Aren't you tired yet?Copy !req
83. I am.Copy !req
84. Then take a break.Copy !req
85. Fine.Copy !req
86. I wasn't out to help you!Copy !req
87. You sure can get mad.Copy !req
88. I'll bet you let out a lot of stress there.Copy !req
89. If you had more common decency, I
wouldn't get stressed in the first place.Copy !req
90. Maybe you should take a lesson from Chitanda-san.Copy !req
91. I've never even seen her get angry.Copy !req
92. But if you're going to say that, I've never seen you or Oreki-san get angry, either...Copy !req
93. Fuku-chan totally gets angry.Copy !req
94. He really does.Copy !req
95. Do you?Copy !req
96. I guess.Copy !req
97. I don't display it as obviously as Mayaka, but I do every now and then.Copy !req
98. I find that hard to imagine...Copy !req
99. Well, I am only human. Of course I get angry.Copy !req
100. You just don't show your emotions in front of others.Copy !req
101. I see.Copy !req
102. Though it's nothing special when you get angry.Copy !req
103. Nothing special?Copy !req
104. You really do look down on me...Copy !req
105. I'm actually a bit curious now...Copy !req
106. I can imagine Chitanda planning something to get him riled up.Copy !req
107. That could be fun.Copy !req
108. Do you get angry, Oreki-san?Copy !req
109. There's no way he'd get angry.Copy !req
110. Because he's easy going?Copy !req
111. No, because he's a sad excuse of a human who can't even get angry.Copy !req
112. Hey! That's just mean!Copy !req
113. Hey look, I got angry!Copy !req
114. Houtarou's lack of emotions aside,Copy !req
115. I think Chitanda never getting angry is a special case.Copy !req
116. You should try to emulate some of that calmness of hers.Copy !req
117. It's not like I can change that part of me just by trying.Copy !req
118. I can't be like Chii-chan.Copy !req
119. Um... that doesn't sound like a compliment...Copy !req
120. I think it might be, actually.Copy !req
121. We're just making observations.Copy !req
122. They're not inherently good or bad.Copy !req
123. People who are unable to get angry are a different story,Copy !req
124. but I think it's an excellent trait not to get angry.Copy !req
125. Wrath is a serious sin, after all.Copy !req
126. I think you should scale back on your outbursts, Mayaka.Copy !req
127. Sin?Copy !req
128. The seven deadly sins, right?Copy !req
129. Yep. I figured you'd know, Chitanda-san.Copy !req
130. I'm sure you've heard of them too, right?Copy !req
131. Yeah, I know of them.Copy !req
132. Wait, aren't there 108 sins?Copy !req
133. That's Buddhism.Copy !req
134. Whatever.Copy !req
135. Let's see...Copy !req
136. Wrath, pride, gluttony, greed...Copy !req
137. Envy, lust, and sloth, right?Copy !req
138. Ah, right!Copy !req
139. Sloth, huh?Copy !req
140. Why are you looking at me?Copy !req
141. I guess that makes you perfect, Chii-chan.Copy !req
142. You're diligent, and you don't overeat.Copy !req
143. Well...Copy !req
144. I can't imagine you being greedy, and you're definitely not lazy.Copy !req
145. Um...Copy !req
146. And you're not into... dirty things.Copy !req
147. Yes, but...Copy !req
148. It's hard to tell if she's envious of anyone, though.Copy !req
149. Those two aren't even complimenting her anymore...Copy !req
150. They're just teasing her.Copy !req
151. Let's stop this!Copy !req
152. Besides, when I get hungry I can eat a lot!Copy !req
153. She doesn't seem the envious type, either.Copy !req
154. So would anyone.Copy !req
155. We should just call her Saint Eru.Copy !req
156. Doesn't "Chitanda Eru" sound kind of angelic?Copy !req
157. Uriel, Gabriel, Chitandael?Copy !req
158. Please stop it!Copy !req
159. She got angry.Copy !req
160. She told us off, too.Copy !req
161. Sorry, Chii-chan.Copy !req
162. Whatever!Copy !req
163. Look, now you made her mad.Copy !req
164. You were totally playing along, too.Copy !req
165. I don't think it's good thing to never get angry.Copy !req
166. It's the same for the other deadly sins, right?Copy !req
167. I think pride and greed are also important.Copy !req
168. How?Copy !req
169. If you can never feel pride, then that means you have no self confidence.Copy !req
170. And someone who never feels greed wouldn't be able to support their family.Copy !req
171. New technologies would never have been invented if people never felt envy.Copy !req
172. Um... I didn't mean to turn this into a lecture...Copy !req
173. I see. Interesting...Copy !req
174. So you're saying that it's a matter of degree?Copy !req
175. I don't think it's useful to just take the deadly sins as absolute and apply that to our lives.Copy !req
176. So you don't think it's necessarily bad to get angry?Copy !req
177. That's right.Copy !req
178. If you can never get angry at anything, that probably means you have nothing that you like, either.Copy !req
179. I do get angry. Yep.Copy !req
180. But if that's the case, why don't you ever get angry?Copy !req
181. Because it tires me out.Copy !req
182. And I like to avoid getting tired.Copy !req
183. Chitanda-san's been poisoned by Houtarou!Copy !req
184. This is bad!Copy !req
185. There's a ghost haunting Kamiyama High!Copy !req
186. The ghost of energy saving!Copy !req
187. Wake up, Chii-chan!Copy !req
188. Chii-chan!Copy !req
189. These guys sure run their mouths...Copy !req
190. I'm just joking!Copy !req
191. It was a joke.Copy !req
192. A joke, huh?Copy !req
193. And here I thought I'd found a soul mate.Copy !req
194. Sorry, I was just playing around.Copy !req
195. Of course I can get angry. And I do.Copy !req
196. Like, for example...Copy !req
197. I get angry when people waste food.Copy !req
198. Each grain of rice is a drop of sweat.Copy !req
199. That's a farmer's daughter for you.Copy !req
200. That reminds me...Copy !req
201. On that topic, wasn't it you who got angry in Omichi's class during fifth period?Copy !req
202. That's right!Copy !req
203. How could I forget?Copy !req
204. I was hoping I could ask you about that!Copy !req
205. Crap.Copy !req
206. I'm curious!Copy !req
207. I'm curious! I'm curious!Copy !req
208. I'm curious! I'm curious! I'm curious!Copy !req
209. I think I'll go home now.Copy !req
210. I was hoping I could ask you about that!Copy !req
211. Did something happen?Copy !req
212. Yes. During fifth period in math class, I got angry.Copy !req
213. You got angry?Copy !req
214. But I don't know what happened to make me angry.Copy !req
215. There was no need for me to suddenly get angry,Copy !req
216. but something happened to make me angry,Copy !req
217. but I don't know what it was that happened.Copy !req
218. Say what?Copy !req
219. I said, I'm not sure what...Copy !req
220. Either ways, I'm curious!Copy !req
221. ShoushoCopy !req
222. ShoushoCopy !req
223. When the air of Taisho has not yet come.Copy !req
224. HyoukaCopy !req
225. HyoukaCopy !req
226. Fifth period today was math class.Copy !req
227. Omichi-sensei is our teacher for that.Copy !req
228. I'm sure you already know what kind of teacher he is.Copy !req
229. Anyway, let me explain from the beginning.Copy !req
230. Let's see...Copy !req
231. He arrived pretty much just as the bell chimed.Copy !req
232. Right before he entered the classroom, he stopped for a moment and looked at the class name plate.Copy !req
233. Everything up until that point was fairly normal.Copy !req
234. He started off by writing down a quadratic equation on the blackboard.Copy !req
235. The equation was simple, but he included a restriction on the domain of x.Copy !req
236. DomainCopy !req
237. And then he singled out Kawasaki-san and told him to draw the range of Y.Copy !req
238. Kawasaki-san looked obviously confused.Copy !req
239. Ah, that's right.Copy !req
240. We hadn't learned anything about domain restrictions yet.Copy !req
241. Kawasaki-san said he didn't know how to.Copy !req
242. But then Omichi-sensei got mad and began to berate us.Copy !req
243. He told Tamura-san, who's quite skilled at math, to answer next.Copy !req
244. But he couldn't answer it either.Copy !req
245. At this point I realized that he had mistaken how far we'd gotten in the textbook.Copy !req
246. Others in the class began to realize too, and it started to get rowdy.Copy !req
247. Then the teacher got even angrier and yelled at us.Copy !req
248. Ah, yes.Copy !req
249. He was striking the blackboard as he reprimanded us.Copy !req
250. I think there were people in the class who could have solved it, but we had all gone silent.Copy !req
251. Omichi-sensei once again singled out Tamura-san and yelled at him.Copy !req
252. That's when I stood up.Copy !req
253. I asked him to double-check where we were supposed to be in the textbook.Copy !req
254. Ah yes, that's when I got angry.Copy !req
255. What happened after that?Copy !req
256. After he took a look, he muttered "Oh, right," and then apologized.Copy !req
257. He told Tamura-san to sit down again, and then class resumed as normal.Copy !req
258. So that's how Omichi is?Copy !req
259. Seriously. I went through a lot of trouble after the midterms because of him.Copy !req
260. We had teachers like him in elementary and middle school too.Copy !req
261. It's not like he's a bad teacher or anything.Copy !req
262. And you can't blame him for failing your tests.Copy !req
263. You'd better make it up at the end of term.Copy !req
264. Yeah...Copy !req
265. So anyway, what do you think?Copy !req
266. Was there something strange about that story?Copy !req
267. What I wanted to ask you was,Copy !req
268. why did he make that mistake in the first place?Copy !req
269. He's not the type to do that...Copy !req
270. That's true.Copy !req
271. Omichi is pretty strict, but that's because he's strict on himself too.Copy !req
272. So then why did he make that mistake?Copy !req
273. That's what I don't get.Copy !req
274. I don't get it either.Copy !req
275. Oreki-san!Copy !req
276. No idea.Copy !req
277. Go look inside his head and find out yourself.Copy !req
278. This would be simple if I could do that.Copy !req
279. Really? Well that's too bad.Copy !req
280. Just give up then.Copy !req
281. I'm curious!Copy !req
282. Please help me figure this out!Copy !req
283. Why me?Copy !req
284. You can figure it out if you just think about it a little!Copy !req
285. Don't give me the "You can do it if you try!" speech.Copy !req
286. Chii-chan, you shouldn't expect too much from him.Copy !req
287. He was a grasshopper in his previous life.Copy !req
288. Mayaka-san, you can see people's former incarnations?Copy !req
289. Nice diversion, Ibara!Copy !req
290. But right now I'm curious about our teacher.Copy !req
291. Damn, she's persistent.Copy !req
292. I'm curious!Copy !req
293. After class, Omichi-sensei always writes a note in his textbook.Copy !req
294. Do you know why?Copy !req
295. To keep track of how far in the curriculum he went that class?Copy !req
296. That's what I think too.Copy !req
297. And before entering a class he always checks the name plate.Copy !req
298. It seems like he's got all his bases covered, so where did his mistake come from?Copy !req
299. I'm guessing his memos are like "July 1st, class A" on page 15 or something.Copy !req
300. It has to contain at least that much in order to know how far he's gone.Copy !req
301. Maybe he got the date wrong?Copy !req
302. That might have made him backtrack, but it couldn't have caused him to skip ahead.Copy !req
303. Use your brain.Copy !req
304. I guess that's true...Copy !req
305. Mind if I ask something?Copy !req
306. Yes, of course.Copy !req
307. I can understand why you'd get angry.Copy !req
308. But I wouldn't want to talk back to a teacher like that.Copy !req
309. So why did you?Copy !req
310. I was angry, but not because he was yelling at us.Copy !req
311. Then was it because there were people who could have answered but didn't?Copy !req
312. No.Copy !req
313. I don't think anyone wanted to stick their neck out in that situation.Copy !req
314. Then, because other people realized his mistake but didn't say anything?Copy !req
315. No...Copy !req
316. Because you felt sorry for Tamura, then?Copy !req
317. I certainly felt sorry for him, but I don't think I'd get angry over that.Copy !req
318. After all, I can understand why he'd yell at students who
didn't seem to remember anything from the previous class.Copy !req
319. So what was it that made me angry?Copy !req
320. I find myself hard to understand sometimes.Copy !req
321. I guess.Copy !req
322. I still don't know enough about Chitanda to know what makes her angry or happy.Copy !req
323. What do you think, Oreki-san?Copy !req
324. I think it's safe to assume that Omichi was writing down the class' progress in his textbook.Copy !req
325. Yet he was mistaken.Copy !req
326. The fact that he carried on anyway means that the previous
page must have had a note saying he'd already done it.Copy !req
327. Your class hadn't been taught domains yet, right?Copy !req
328. Yes, that's right.Copy !req
329. And what if you had?Copy !req
330. What do you mean by that?Copy !req
331. Omichi teaches math every year.Copy !req
332. At some point, last year's 1-A learned it.Copy !req
333. If you're saying he might have mistaken last year's notes, I'm afraid that's impossible.Copy !req
334. What do you mean?Copy !req
335. The teachers get new textbooks every year.Copy !req
336. They need to have the latest revisions to stay consistent with the students, right?Copy !req
337. Omichi is using this year's 4th edition.Copy !req
338. I see...Copy !req
339. You're filled with useless knowledge, as usual.Copy !req
340. I'm a database, after all.Copy !req
341. There's the possibility that he mixed up the notes he wrote.Copy !req
342. But I'm sure Chitanda wouldn't accept that answer.Copy !req
343. I really don't get domains, though.Copy !req
344. It's already hard enough for me to just draw the x and y axes.Copy !req
345. It would be scary to be singled out by Omichi.Copy !req
346. Wait a second.Copy !req
347. 1-D has already learned domains?Copy !req
348. Yeah, we have.Copy !req
349. Satoshi's class already did domains, but my class and Chitanda's class haven't yet...Copy !req
350. I see.Copy !req
351. That face tells me you've thought of something.Copy !req
352. Maybe.Copy !req
353. Chitanda.Copy !req
354. Yes!Copy !req
355. You're sure that he made a note a page ahead of where you'd gotten to?Copy !req
356. Yes, I believe so.Copy !req
357. Additionally, the note was written this year, and shows the class' progress.Copy !req
358. Yes.Copy !req
359. What if the memo he wrote wasn't, in fact, for your class?Copy !req
360. What if it was actually Satoshi's class' memo?Copy !req
361. My class?Copy !req
362. Omichi is in charge of classes A, B, C, and D, right?Copy !req
363. Even if it wasn't A or B, that doesn't mean it has to be class D's.Copy !req
364. And anyway, why class D?Copy !req
365. Because it's quite possible he mixed the two up.Copy !req
366. C is clearly nothing like A.Copy !req
367. What? Are you an idiot?Copy !req
368. A and D aren't anything alike either.Copy !req
369. Omichi teaches math.Copy !req
370. So what?Copy !req
371. A math teacher has a much higher chance of mixing up A and D.Copy !req
372. What?Copy !req
373. Oreki Houtarou's writingCopy !req
374. Let's say he wrote "July 1st, A" on page 10, and "July 1st, D" on page 15.Copy !req
375. Yeah, so what?Copy !req
376. How could he have mixed those up?Copy !req
377. If he had mistaken the D for an A, that would explain what happened.Copy !req
378. True, but how?Copy !req
379. A math teacher would have written them like this.Copy !req
380. Oh! Lower case A and D!Copy !req
381. I get it now!Copy !req
382. That makes sense...Copy !req
383. I lost points on an English test because the teacher couldn't tell the difference in my handwriting.Copy !req
384. Oh, you too?Copy !req
385. In my case, it was "n" and "h".Copy !req
386. Yes, that does seem likely.Copy !req
387. Finally cleared that up.Copy !req
388. A and D...Copy !req
389. I can understand the mistake now.Copy !req
390. I may have gone too far in what I said to him.Copy !req
391. That was wrong of me.Copy !req
392. Why would you say that?Copy !req
393. Omichi was in the wrong!Copy !req
394. He deserved anything you said to him!Copy !req
395. And besides—Copy !req
396. Now, now.Copy !req
397. It's getting pretty late. We should head home.Copy !req
398. But Fuku-chan!Copy !req
399. It's fine, Mayaka.Copy !req
400. The mystery's solved.Copy !req
401. That's not what I mean! Fuku-chan!Copy !req
402. The normally calm Chitanda got angry.Copy !req
403. And so she wanted to know why.Copy !req
404. She said it's not necessarily bad to get angry, but the truth is, she never wants to.Copy !req
405. Houtarou, Chitanda-san. We should go.Copy !req
406. Perhaps Chitanda wanted Omichi to have had his reasons, and
wanted to believe that she got angry because of her own mistake.Copy !req
407. Ah, right. Let me clean up.Copy !req
408. Maybe Chitanda Eru is just that kind of person?Copy !req
409. No. What do I know about her?Copy !req
410. Even if I can predict her actions sometimes, I couldn't hope to understand her heart.Copy !req
411. That'd be a deadly sin, just like she was saying.Copy !req
412. "Pride".Copy !req
413. I'd better watch out.Copy !req
414. Even just today, how many times already has Chitanda done or said something unexpected?Copy !req
