I'll share Summary Light Novel Volume 4 here, WARNING : Please Don't Click if you Hate Spoiler
Point:
From a student bullying and false NTR accusation case, the story escalates into a major political corruption scandal involving infrastructure development funds. The corruption eventually causes a tunnel collapse that kills Ai's mother, while the investigation reaches a former city council member, a construction company, and even the Prime Minister.
Other Character:
Takayanagi Sensei, Mitsui Sensei, Endou Kazuki, Doumoto Yumi, Imai Satoshi, Watanabe, Hayashi, Tachibana, Yamada, Ugaki, Ugaki Hitomi, Kuroi, Mitsuta, Matsuda, PTA, AiDA.
Note: Former Mayor, City Council Member, Ministry of Education.
★ The story continues directly after Ai reveals her true identity to Eiji. After visiting her mother's grave, Ai finally releases the pain she has carried for years and gradually begins smiling again thanks to Eiji. Kuroi, who has served the Ugaki family for a long time, expresses his gratitude to Eiji for helping Ai recover emotionally.
★ Eiji later learns that his mother had already realized long ago that Ai was Ugaki's daughter. The next day, Ai personally visits the Aono family to reveal the truth herself.
★ At the same time, Ai investigates the people involved in Eiji's bullying case. Her attention turns to Tachibana, the literature club president. Although he appears to be a perfect student, Ai becomes suspicious after discovering that he attended the same middle school as Kondo and Endou. She orders Kuroi to investigate Tachibana's connections to Endou and Doumoto Yumi.
★ Meanwhile, Miyuki is placed under teacher supervision after her suicide attempt. Her mother criticizes her for trying to escape responsibility through suicide rather than truly atoning for betraying Eiji. Tachibana-sensei, who once lost a family member to suicide, also shares her experience and encourages Miyuki to keep living and face her mistakes properly.
★ The story then shifts to Eri. A detective questions her about Kondo and offers her a chance to meet him. Through Eri's memories, it is revealed that she first met Kondo through Tachibana and was manipulated by him in a similar way to Miyuki. Her testimony eventually raises suspicion about the hidden connection between Kondo and Tachibana.
★ Under increasing pressure, Tachibana becomes afraid that his relationship with Kondo and his role as the mastermind behind Eiji's bullying will be exposed. He attempts to create scapegoats and manipulate Mitsuta, Matsuda, and other students to silence Eri and pressure Hayashi, a former literature club member who refused to participate in Eiji's bullying.
★ Hayashi eventually seeks Ai's help after receiving threats. Ai, the principal, Eiji, Endou, and Satoshi work together to protect him while setting a trap to expose Tachibana.
★ Eiji directly confronts Tachibana and demands the return of his stolen literary works. Tachibana denies everything, but his excuses only strengthen suspicions against him.
★ Tachibana's plan collapses when Mitsuta is revealed to have been secretly cooperating with Ai and the police all along. Mitsuta had always hated Kondo and was willing to sacrifice himself to help Endou bring him down.
★ Takayanagi-sensei later interrogates Tachibana using evidence provided by the police, including messages exchanged with Kondo and testimonies from literature club members. Despite overwhelming evidence, Tachibana refuses to confess and attempts to flee.
★ Tachibana then tries to force Hayashi into lying to protect him. However, Hayashi finally stands up to him and refuses. When Tachibana attempts to strike Hayashi, Satoshi intervenes and tells him that he will never surpass Eiji in either character or literary talent.
★ Soon afterward, Tachibana is arrested. During police interrogation, all of his excuses are dismantled one by one until he finally breaks down mentally.
★ With Tachibana's downfall, the bullying case reaches its conclusion. However, the story then shifts toward a much larger political conflict.
★ Ugaki, Ai's father and the ruling party's Secretary-General, is summoned by the Prime Minister. The government seeks to contain the scandal and pressures the Ministry of Education to push the school into closing the case quickly.
★ However, the principal refuses to compromise. He continues supporting the truth and protecting the students, while preparing Takayanagi-sensei as his successor.
★ Behind the scenes, Ugaki has his own agenda. He wants to expose the corruption within the government, not only because Kondo harmed Eiji, but also because Kondo was connected to the corruption that led to his wife's death.
★ The investigation reveals that embezzled construction funds were funneled through Kondo's company and eventually linked to political forces that supported the Prime Minister's rise to power. The corruption ultimately caused the tunnel collapse that killed Ugaki Hitomi.
★ At the end of the volume, another major revelation appears. Ugaki's distance from Ai is not solely because he wants to protect her from his revenge plan. He is actually suffering from a serious heart disease, setting up the next major conflict in the story.

thank you for translation
Female, it's the girl with glasses you can see in the pictures below those spoilers. No idea why she is referred as "he" here...Is Tachibana male or female? The previous spoilers referred to Tachibana as a girl, but this one refers to Tachibana as a guy.
Girl, Sorry if I made any typos. I sometimes make typos when I'm typing long text 🙏 i fix thatIs Tachibana male or female? The previous spoilers referred to Tachibana as a girl, but this one refers to Tachibana as a guy.
So, can someone refresh my memory, why is sensei so certain that Kondou is lying?
you forgot to attach the gigachad imageIt will eventually turn into pointless “revenge” porn.
It definitely will.. But I guess, teach will f the Kondo upIt will eventually turn into pointless “revenge” porn.
That's what this was suppose to illustrate! Same as the last chapter! That they are still KIDS and so aren't as SNEAKY AND SMART as they think they are, ESPECIALLY Kondo.When I think about it, the only good thing about this manga are the adults being competent.
The mc and fmc aren't that unique as these kind of stories go.
The "ex" is more pathetic than usual, but not really something to write home about.
The evil guy who "stole" the ex isn't that interesting, just your run of the mill rich kid who think he's more talented than he actually is.
I mean, its great that the adults are useful for once, but its just such a low bar to clear for these "betrayal" stories. Other characters having agency.
The other interviews and Eiji's testimonies contradict everything he's saying! Kondo is so SMUG, he can't control himself, and actually is in a panic since he didn't make sure to KNOW what Miyuki specifically told the Teacher! His need to CONTROL the conversation and again his SMUGNESS meant while the teacher only has contradictions and no real evidence! He's only made it CLEAR that he isn't to be trusted and he DID do something!So, can someone refresh my memory, why is sensei so certain that Kondou is lying?
It will eventually turn into pointless “revenge” porn.
