~Three Days Earlier~
"Ne, are those two still not talking?" The atmosphere in the homeroom of the Osaka High School where Toyama Kazuha and Hattori Heiji attended had been tense to say the least for the past week. This tension had many of the students in the class worried
"Nope. It seems they really got on each other's nerves this time" Heiji and Kazuha were known for a few things among their peers: one was fighting, which usually involved screaming insults, yelling the oh so common "Aho!" and even some physical violence(mostly received by Heiji). Two was there odd relationship. It was a widely known fact that those two acted more like a couple than most actual couples. To most students, they were a couple. That was all there was to it. Three was their ability to baffle and entertain the class with one or both of the first two things.
"So wait, what exactly are they fighting about?"
"Okay, get this: I heard from a friend whose friend's with Kazuha that she went out on a date with some guy from another class to make Hattori-san jealous"
"Okay, that explains why he is mad, but why is she reluctant to speak with him?"
"Hold on, I'm not done yet. So she goes to the movies with this guy. They go to see some romance movie that she knew Heiji would hate just to make sure he didn't tag along. About halfway through the movie, her date says he needs to use the restroom. When he comes back, he is jittery and nervous and he tells her he has to leave and he runs out of the theatre in a hurry. She runs after him and when she catches him she's curious as to why he all the sudden had to go. He is reluctant to say, and gives her a few garbage answers like 'oh I have homework' and 'oh I forgot to feed my cat'. However, after she persists for a few minutes. He eventually enlightens her"
"Woah, so wait what happened?"
"Would you stop interrupting? jeez. Anyway, it turns out Heiji caught wind of her little date and cornered the guy in the bathroom. He apparently came fully clothed in a Kendo sparring uniform, facemask and all. He put his sword in his face and told him to back off Kazuha or he would break his arm."
"Dang what a guy. But wait, wouldn't Toyama-chan be happy about that? After all, the point of the date was to make him jealous right?"
"If you interrupt me again, I'm going to punch you now shut up and let me finish. ANYWAY, when they walked to school the next day, she confronted him about the previous night. Instead of admitting to his jealousy and taking her in his arms like she, for some reason, thought he would he completely denied the allegations. Yeah, he actually said the guy was a liar and that he had been home all night studying for a pre-calculus exam. And to make matters worse, he, being the oblivious moron he is, had the gall to ask her 'Why would I be jealous of you going on a date with a guy anyway?' Can you believe that guy?"
"Wait, so he's mad because she went a date with another guy, and she's mad because he won't admit that he's mad because she went on a date with another guy? "
"That about it"
"And she hasn't noticed that he is mad about her going on that date because she's too busy being angry about him not telling her that he is mad because she went on that date?"
"Exactly"
"Those two are idiots"
"We figured that out a long time ago. But I guess it's hardest to solve the mysteries that are right in front of you."
"That's a little ironic considering he's a genius detective"
"Definitely. Leave it to a detective to be so clueless"
As the students shared a quiet laugh, the class remained still and fairly silent. Little mumbles could be heard here and there, but overall the class was very unlike a normal high school classroom. This was not to the liking of the student body, who, without a single word, had come to a mutual conclusion: this fight had to end.
