"I said......" About an hour later, the person next to him suddenly spoke, "It's going to the Peak of Hope, can you be happier?" ”

Really...... Is there a mistake......

I sneaked a glance at Cyrese, who was pretending to be calm, but was actually overwhelmed with excitement, and felt beads of sweat oozing from his head, wondering if the current Cyrus character had collapsed.

"You seem excited......" I said.

"Aren't you excited?" Celes turned her head, looked at me curiously and asked, "Compared to me who was forcibly dragged into the school by Huang Yinggongyi, you fought for it yourself, aren't you excited?" ”

The taxi driver already knew that it was two undergraduates from the Peak of Hope sitting in his car? At the moment, he was simply driving with caution.

I don't know if it's intentional. Cyrus put a nonchalant hand on my lap.

I have to say that the feeling of being gently slashed across the thighs by this pair of Qianqianyu hands, who have never engaged in manual labor, is really ...... A treat.

But I suddenly remembered a fat house, and I also remembered a memory belonging to Ryusuke Onikawa.

It should have been two years. On that occasion, the Queen of the Hanging Sun Kingdom stayed at a five-star hotel in Tokyo, and the "ghost hand" then came to the scene and stole the queen's crown and scepter.

When passing by the second floor that day, Ryusuke Onigawa saw a pair of familiar figures, covering their faces with masks and sunglasses, and helped them into the guest room.

What Ryusuke Onikawa is familiar with in his memory is the middle-aged man who has lost his head; And I'm ...... Be more familiar with the young girl who was being held.

I shuddered at the thought of some flowers stuck in cow dung.

I simply closed my eyes and lay down in my chair completely, responding to her teasing with silence.

But I forgot. Like those who "win a lot of battles", the more difficult it is to succeed in a mission, the more interested they are in it.

Next, she grabbed my hand and put it on her thigh. Before I could touch Cyrus's skin, I pulled my hand with lightning speed.

Even without looking in the rearview mirror, I can guess what the driver is thinking. Even if he doesn't have the brain of a literary girl, the driver has staged countless youth dramas in the small theater in his head.

"Cut...... It's boring," Cyrus sarcastically said, "you're a little bolder than my mediocre mother." ”

Celes ...... Mentioning your own family?

It's pretty impressive. As a guy with a mysterious background, what Cyrus's family is like, in fact, I am also very curious.

I saw that Cyrus's proud eyes showed mixed feelings. It's like unhappiness and hatred, but it's also like liberation and sadness.

Just as she was about to speak, the driver's reminder interrupted our musings.

"Hey...... I said, you're too far away......" Celes grumbled dissatisfiedly, "and we're going to have to go a full kilometer." ”

"I'm really sorry for this," the driver's voice revealed a sense of shame but helplessness, "Since a robber who graduated from an undergraduate school drove into the vicinity of Hope Peak Academy, the school has reiterated the rule: no vehicle that does not belong to Hope Peak College cannot be parked within a kilometer of the surrounding area. Not even crossing the road. ”

"What a ridiculous order...... "Celes looked up in displeasure, covered her mouth and sighed.

I took out two 10,000 yen bills and said, "No need to look for them." "Just push the door and get out of the car. Ignoring the driver's surprise and thanks.

I said...... Wait a little bit for me. Behind him came the sound of Cyrus' hurried footsteps.

I looked back, glanced at Cyres, who was running behind, a little out of breath, and secretly said, "This is too lacking in exercise, isn't it?"

"Hurry up," I glanced at my watch, not slowing down, "it's 7:40, and there's still twenty minutes left for the entrance ceremony." ”

"Oh. Why is the entrance ceremony so early......" Cyrus grumbled with a yawn, a rare look of tiredness on her face.

Early? Then you should meet the students of the Panlong Kingdom at the same time. I sarcastically said to myself.

Skirting the skyscrapers and passing the myriad of preppy students and office workers who are hurrying (thankfully, their faces aren't the "Smurfs" from the anime) is the largest and most well-equipped private Hope Summit College in the heart of Tokyo, Japan's largest and most well-equipped university.

Turning the last corner, a young girl in a sailor's suit and skates shouted "Get out of the way", and with a gust of wind, rushed past us, and then ended her journey next to a teenager with marshmallow-haired hair.

Then a baseball flew off the fence and landed at the feet of a man with white hair like a marshmallow. The white-haired man who had just sighed "too unfortunate" picked up the baseball on the ground, then showed a smile and sighed loudly: "It seems that I am as lucky as before." ”

The luckier person was actually a high school student wearing a black hoodie, dark jeans and red sneakers, with green eyes. I wouldn't be mistaken.

"Brother Cheng...... ......I muttered to myself, and then realized that the classmate in front of me, Makoto Naegi, and a certain male who made it his mission to pop are two completely different creatures.

"Brother Cheng" was not frightened, but elegantly stretched out a hand to the girl who hit the telephone pole, and asked gently, "Are you okay?" ”

Is this considered an acquaintance...... I ignored the moment they met and moved on.

As I walked through the gate, I saw the familiar person again: Owada Mondo. He seemed to be frustrated that motorcycles couldn't be driven into school. Nearby, a dark-red-haired man in a white imitation military uniform was reprimanding him.

Crossing the central fountain square, which I had already visited once, I saw Tsuzozo Jusan and Yukizome Sensa chatting at the fountain. As I passed by them, I waved as kindly as I could, and I nodded.

"Who's that guy?" Walking past the two of them, Celes glanced contemptuously behind her.

Listening to her tone, it seems to be asking "whether he is recyclable or non-recyclable garbage".

"The school's security director," I replied, "a stupid pig with a foolish heart. ”

Then I bumped into a preppy student. At that time, he was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses with the lower half of the glasses, and the clothes on his body were still brand new. As I walked past us with my eyes fixed on the book in my hand, I was almost bumped by him.

Realizing that he had almost bumped into someone, the other party immediately raised his head. When I saw the undergraduate uniforms that Cyrus and I were wearing, we immediately turned pale, bowed and apologized, and our attitude was very frightened.

"Be careful," Cyrus's eyes immediately became extremely terrifying, "Don't mess with people you shouldn't mess with." ”

Before the other party was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, and Cyrus's painting style suddenly changed, I patted him on the shoulder and said generously, "It's okay." As a new student, you should maintain a good mood. ”

"Hmph, you're very forgiving." Looking at the back of the preppy student running away in a hurry, Celes commented casually.

At most, a year, sooner or later, they will go berserk and die, and there is really no need to be like them.

Merely...... What I really cared about was, why did I smell a faint, familiar floral scent when I patted him on the shoulder just now?

"Oops. Although the name is very large, except for the larger area, I can't see any other differences. Standing in front of the school building, Celes covered her mouth and chuckled in her comments.

Okay...... Maybe you have a big vision. In my opinion, the school building in front of me, called the Peak of Hope, is already majestic.

Goodbye, next year's me. I remember that in the game, the main character's memory ends there.

At this moment, I can only pray that I will be lucky in the next year. I really need Lucky's help.

A pair of girls are walking here. I pursed my lips and heard Cyrus urging.

"I'm coming." I replied lightly.

With that, I lifted my head, took a deep breath, and stepped into the gate of the Peak of Hope.
