Once Haruna had left amidst her nervousness, Reiji returned to the study and opened the account page on Scrollz. 

His eyes flickered when he saw that there were 20 views already.  2026-01-17 02:44:27 +0000 UTC View Post

"What trouble did you get into this time?" 

Tadano's deep scowl made no effort to hide his disdain, to the point that Reiji felt like facepalming.

Reiji was taken aback, but he saw an opportunity. 

If the documents were to be sent in tomorrow, Tadano would likely hide them today or very early in the morning before she came to schoo...

Reiji sat down on a bench at the edge of the hall, shifting his focus back to the panel of judges and the lone redhead standing in front of them.

Nishimura Sensei stepped forward and grabbed Reiji's head, turning it multiple different ways to check for an injury. 

"Strange...Is it internal?" he mumbled under his breath.

"Dude... What did you do?" Tooro asked, leaping out of his seat as soon as the bell rang to signal the first break. 

For three continuous periods, it looked like he was sitting on a pile...

Reiji stared blankly at the girl's receding back, almost losing his grip on his backpack.

Kahawara practically had to drag himself out of the office because his legs refused to listen to him.

Not with the fear coursing through his body at this moment. 

He kept his head ...

Noa stared intently at her phone for a few seconds before looking up at Reiji with quivering eyes.

Minato rushed towards the corner of the bottom floor, where the classrooms had been unused for a couple of years and remained pretty much empty.

There was complete silence in the assembly hall. 

Not that this was weird, since it was always quiet during official events. 

But the ambience was what stood out.
