It's the teacher's office building under the sunset again, Yuichi walks down the corridor with his head down in frustration, the entire office building is dyed golden yellow by the sunset, and where there is shelter, the shadow and the light form a very sharp contrast.

It's already after school, because Yuichi was asked by the teacher to go to her office to "drink tea" during class, so Yuichi will appear in the teacher's office building at such a non-class time.

Otherwise, he would not have stepped half a step on this teacher's office building, which the students called "purgatory on earth".

Because of the scrutinizing gaze cast by the teachers in the whole office, people want to escape as soon as they enter.

Alas, that was thrilling!

Yuichi stared blankly ahead, and his two arms hung limply at his sides.

"Da, da, da."

Footsteps echoed through the hallway.

“……”

Yuichi always felt that this scene had appeared before, and even Shizuko, who was following him, was exactly the same as the previous time.

But as for when, he couldn't remember for a while.

After class, Shizuko didn't go home, she followed Yuichi to the teacher's office building and waited for Yuichi outside the office for a full hour.

And now, after some brainwashing, Yuichi has finally escaped from it.

Now Yuichi's brain could really be regarded as blank, and nothing could interfere with his sluggishness, and he walked forward as stiffly as a machine.

"Yuichi-san?"

So much so that the first time Shizuko called him, Yuichi didn't hear it.

"Yuichi-san?"

Shizuko's voice was a little louder, but Yuichi still walked forward with a glazed gaze.

"Yuichi-san!"

"Hmm...... Hmm?! ”

Yuichi reacted at this time, looking at Shizuko with a puzzled gaze, and there was a little panic in his voice:

"What, what's wrong?"

"What was Yuichi-san thinking just now?"

Seeing Yuichi's preoccupied look, Shizuko's eyebrows were furrowed together, and she asked with a worried expression.

"Oh no, nothing."

"Is there really nothing?"

"Hmm."

"That'...... That ......"

Suddenly, Shizuko's face turned strangely red, and her voice stammered like a cassette.

"What's wrong?"

Yuichi, who noticed Shizuko's abnormality, looked at Shizuko.

"You, Youyi, do you remember what you promised me in the morning?"

Shizuko's face turned redder, and she bowed her head deeply, eager to hide her face.

"The morning thing...... Is it? Hmmm......"

"Can't you really remember it?"

At this time, Shizuko's voice was a little trembling and lost, and in the end, she even cried.

"Eh, I, I remember!"

In order to prevent Shizuko from really crying, Yuichi hurriedly waved his hand, which curbed the next development of the plot in time.

In fact, his hesitation just now was not because he couldn't remember the agreement with Shizuko in the morning, but because he felt that there was something more important to do.

That's - ask why Morning Saki did that kind of behavior!

If Yuichi was convinced that this thing was done by Sakiya, he wouldn't have been doubting this and that here all the time, and he wouldn't have so many doubts in his mind.

And it was precisely because there were so many doubts that Yuichi actually had doubts about what he saw.

The huge mystery weighed on his mind like a heavy dark cloud, and as long as the mystery was still there, he felt very uncomfortable.

So he wanted to get to the bottom of it right away!

Yuichi gritted his teeth and made up his mind in his heart, he might not be able to accompany Shizuko to do the things mentioned by Shizuko today, and in order not to have any follow-up effects, he had to make it clear to Shizuko now!

"So, what, Shizuko......"

"Huh?!"

Shizuko looked up at Yuichi with an excited smile on her face.

You can see that she is very happy that she is going to hang out with Yuichi at night.

At this time, Yuichi lowered his head because of the guilt in his heart and didn't dare to look at Shizuko's eyes, he had already agreed to Shizuko in the morning, and now he wants to break the agreement in the morning, which is also his fault in reason.

Why did I agree to Shizuko to watch a movie with her so lightly!

But this matter must be suspended here, because of Sakuya's abnormal things, Yuichi feels that it is much more important than going out with Shizuko.

"What, Shizuko, I probably won't be able to go to the movies with you today."

You's face was numb, and even he himself felt ashamed of this sentence.

"Huh?"

Shizuko's face froze with an excited expression, and her expression suddenly became very stiff, and for a while she couldn't accept the amount of information contained in this sentence.

Seeing Shizuko's reaction, Yuichi immediately became flustered:

"Eh, Shizuko, you don't have to think about it so much, in fact, I want to hang out with you too, but I have more important things to do."

That's all there is to it, and after saying that, Yuichi was also dumbfounded, just quietly watching Shizuko's reaction, not knowing what to do.

After a few seconds of silence.

Shizuko suddenly looked at Yuichi, her eyes became a little moist, and at the same time said to Yuichi in a very regretful, even somewhat unwilling tone:

"I, I know, I know that everyone should have something different to do every day, and Yuichi-san is no exception. This time, Yuichi-san temporarily remembered that there were more important things to do, so Shizuko couldn't hinder Yuichi-san. ”

"Huh?"

"It's also possible, it's also possible that Yuichi-san didn't want to hang out with Shizuko from the beginning, as for why Yuichi-san didn't say it until now, I'm afraid it's because you didn't want to refuse Shizuko so cruelly in the morning, Yuichi-san is really understanding."

"Huh?! Yes?! ”

"So since that's the case, Shizuko won't force Yuichi-san, and it's a pity that I can't play Shizuko together this time, but I think there will be more opportunities in the future, so forget it today. Actually, Yuichi-san, Yuichi-san, don't care about Shizuko's thoughts. ”

"Uh...... Actually, I mean, I think going shopping with Shizuko should be more interesting and important than watching a movie! ”

Yuichi was silent for a moment and said something like this.

When he said this, even he himself was shocked!

What are you talking about?

You can't be soft-hearted just because Shizuko showed such a look and said something like that!

"Huh?!"

However, the words that came out were like water spilled out, and Shizuko, who heard this, looked at Yuichi with a look of surprise.

Looking at such a gaze, Yuichi could only scratch his head in embarrassment, and after straightening his face, he said to Shizuko in a serious tone:

"That's right, that's what I meant."

Yuichi, you bastard!
