"Kotomi thought I was seriously injured, so that's why I was hit."

"It's my fault, if I hadn't said anything about the accident."

"It's not your fault, don't think about it."

Okazaki interrupts Starling and Furukawa, who are fighting with each other to take responsibility.

"We're actually... Maybe not even her friend. ”

Losing the momentum of what had just taught me, Xing pressed her fingers on a piece of paper on the table.

"Well, what's wrong with Kotomi?"

Listening to the conversation going in the wrong direction, I reached out from the corner and asked questions.

"Actually... Izumi, while you're away, we went back to the health room to see Kotomi in the first period," after a pause, Okazaki turned to me and explained, "But I heard from the health room teacher that she went home alone in the middle of the first class. ”

"Do you want to go home alone?"

"Yes, but the teacher said that he didn't say anything more because it involved Kotomi's privacy."

Privacy?

So we went to Qinmei's homeroom teacher to ask, but her teacher said that she said that she was "not feeling well and wanted to leave early and go home alone."

"I also asked the teacher about Kotomi's privacy, but the teacher told us to wait for Kotomi to say it herself," Apricot took Okazaki's words and picked up the piece of paper on the table and gestured, "But we asked the teacher for Kotomi's home address." ”

"That's right..."

Touching my chin, I fell into thought because of Kazuto Okazaki's explanation.

I didn't expect this to happen after just a morning's sleep, but it was more developed than I could have imagined.

Kotomi was able to get up in the first session and go home on her own, which means that her physical condition is basically fine, and the rest is mental? But it's also possible that it's not like that, damn it, and the more I think about it, the more confused it becomes.

"Now we have to think about what to do first."

"I think it's more reassuring to go and see Kotomi after school in the afternoon."

"Well, I also agree with Nagisa's proposal."

Are you going to visit Kotomi? Maybe this is the best way at the moment, after all, judging from the state of Kotomi, it is really not reassuring.

"Xing, can I make a copy of the address given by the teacher?"

"Do you want to see it?"

I took a pen from the inside pocket of my jacket and walked to the table, tore a page from a sketchbook next to me, and copied it on the table.

"I said, Izumi, what are you copying this for?"

"Remember the address so you can find her."

"By the way," I folded the written paper in half and put it in my pocket, and I asked the class leader in confusion, "Help me tell Ishikawa in the afternoon class that I will leave early." ”

But as soon as I said this, not only Apricot but also Okazaki stared at me with wide eyes in surprise.

It's normal for them to be surprised, after all, I've always been a good student.

"You're not going to skip afternoon class, are you?!"

"Well~ that's pretty much it," I nodded affirmatively, but noticing that Apricot's face was gradually starting to change color, I hurriedly explained, "I'm going to go and see how Kotomi is doing in the afternoon." ”

"Could it be that Izumi-kun, you are skipping class for the sake of Kotomi?!"

"No, it's not as exaggerated as it sounds."

Looking at Furukawa and Starling's admiring expressions, I scratched my head in embarrassment and laughed dryly.

"If you're going, I'll too..."

"You're going to forget it," I said back to my seat as I stretched out my hand to push Okazaki, who was about to get up, "Okazaki, you also know that you are one of the focus of the teacher's attention, so don't do something eye-catching now." ”

After all, the final establishment of the drama department still needs the approval of the director of education, even if Okazaki has not yet written the application of the department, but now the slightest thing that may affect the style of evaluation is not allowed. Although it is a bit selfish to say this, the drama department is also Furukawa's dream, and I have made up my mind to help her realize it.

"And," I sighed heartily as I looked at Starling sitting across from him, "You can't give Starling any trouble either, your squad leader." ”

Although this is not very convincing from me, who has already caused trouble for Xing.

“… Even if you say that, how are you going to explain it? ”

"So please help me tell Ishikawa that 'Izumi is sick in the afternoon because Izumi is not feeling well' and it will be no problem."

"Ha~ You won't underestimate truancy, right?"

"That's right, Izumi," Okazaki agreed, and Apricot hurriedly stood up and persuaded me, "Sensei isn't so easy to fool. ”

Hey? Am I delusional, how can I hear the tone of the two of you like seasoned professional veterans?

"Don't worry, Ishikawa will understand that."

Then I spent a lot of words to finally get everyone to compromise, but in exchange for "I want to report the situation in the afternoon and let them know as soon as there is a situation."

———————————— dividing line————————————

I hurried back to the classroom to pack my school bag, and while the students were in the cafeteria or flower bed, I immediately walked in the direction of the school gate.

Change your shoes, close the lockers, and the next thing is to lunge in the direction of the door.

Gotta speed up, if you get caught here by the teacher, it's all over.

With that in mind, I took out the momentum of grabbing bread during my lunch break and prepared to run.

"Izumi, what are you doing here?"

Wow, I still ran into an acquaintance in the end, but fortunately it's not a teacher, and if it's a student, it's okay to make up a reason.

"Huh!"

However, this was only a second before I turned around, and when I turned around, I saw enough combinations to make me instantly pounce on the ground.

"Izumi, what's wrong with you? The face is not very good. ”

Although the silver hair is fluttering, it is also super ~ a strict member of the Discipline Committee.

"Senior, what's the matter with your choked expression? Is it because it's stupid? ”

Although the double ponytail has a good appearance, but the personality is super ~ the rabbit with a black belly, Usami-sang.

Wow, ahhhh Why did you come across this duo at this time?!
