"I'm almost going to see the Weaving Snow." After eating the omelet rice and watching the performance of the magic club in the school, Saionji Akino said.

Zhixue is scheduled to be handed over in the afternoon, and the rare cultural festival, I naturally want to go shopping with her.

"Good! But...... The activity in Sister Oriyuki's class is a haunted house, right? "Rika Shinohara, who is not only afraid of the dark but also afraid of ghosts, is a very timid person.

"Is the magical girl Rika still afraid of ghosts?" Yueshandong began to tease her again.

"I'm not afraid!" After Rika Shinohara, she was stimulated, and immediately wanted to prove herself, so she took Tsukiyama Dong's hand and walked quickly in the direction of the haunted house of Class B.

……

The black curtains enclosed the exterior windows of Class B, completely blocking out the light, and on these curtains there were many last words written in red ink, a few bits and distorted fonts, and several ghost portraits.

It seems that Class B is really riveting and preparing, and the mummy standing at the door is also very well made, and even the red light is flashing inside the hollow eyes.

"Huan~Welcome~" The hoarse voice with reverberation due to the loophole suddenly renders that atmosphere.

Rika Shinohara, just seeing the mummy at the door, was already so scared that her hair stood upside down.

Apparently she's really bitter about the haunted house.

However, the harder you work, the more you have to work hard to overcome it!

Rika Shinohara, took out a 300 yen coin and put it in a cardboard box at the door, and then hugged Tsukiyama Dong's arm and walked in with her legs trembling.

"We're so scared, why don't we stop playing?"

"You, you're scared!" Rika Shinohara, who has a hard mouth, and Tsukiyama Dong, who has a blank face, take the lead.

Sakuraba Chiyuki stayed in Class D to help with the work of receiving guests, so she didn't come along.

The rest is Saionji Akino and Ichiri.

Saionji Akino looked at Ichiri, "Let's go in too, right?" ”

"Uh-huh."

As soon as they entered the classroom, a yin wind blew from above them, making the back of their necks cool and shaking unconsciously.

But this is not due to fear, to be honest, she is not so sensitive to these ghosts or something, and her previous timidity is aimed at people.

She is more afraid of people than of ghosts, but now these symptoms of fear of people are almost better.

Although she can't be as cheerful to people as her sister and Akino of Saionji, she doesn't feel afraid of normal communication.

And to be able to get to this point, everything is due to him.

The girl's eyes originally fell on the side of his face, but the ghost made a difference, and she couldn't help but turn to look at Saionji Akino's lips.

"Tips, it's better to hold hands after entering the haunted house~"

An ethereal voiceover broke the strange atmosphere, and when Saionji Akino heard this, he stretched out his hand to Ichiri, "Do you want to take it?" ”

"Yes, yes." Ichiri blushed and held the warm, wide, and slightly rough hand as she thought of the instructions her sister had given her last night.

I secretly thought about it several times in my heart.

Later, when a ghost appears, I have to pretend to be afraid and hug him.

The ghost appears and hugs him x10.

Saionji Akino looked at Yili bowing his head and saying nothing, and his heart was a little empty.

Normally, now that he has a relationship with Zhixue, he shouldn't have had such intimate contact with Yili again, but ...... The voiceover just now made him have to ask.

And that's what it is......

However, it's okay, just think of it as a brother-in-law taking care of my sister-in-law.

After Saionji Akino found a suitable reason, his mood settled down a lot.

However, when they entered the red light area in front of them, and the screams of Rika Shinohara, they suddenly appeared in front of them with an autopsy corpse hanging in front of them.

This is the mannequin that will be placed in the infirmary.

It's just that the sudden jumpscare, as well as the visual impact of the red light, are indeed quite scary.

However, both Saionji Akino and Ichiri are not too sensitive to this, so they ......

Well?

"Aki, Akino-senpai...... I, I'm afraid! After Asaba said this stiffly, he then hugged Saionji Akino's arm.

"Don't, don't be nervous...... Wait, Ichiri you loosen up a little bit......"

Saionji Akino wanted to appease her, but who knew that Ichiri was holding on to death from beginning to end, which made him feel happy and helpless......

Happiness in frustration?

Wrong...... I can't think like that, I'm not a flowery person, and I've already decided to treat Zhixue well, so I can't ......

Saionji Akino's brain is at war between heaven and man.,The one who used to love to play harem galgame.,After many months.,Came out of the horns.,Although he was punched to death by his current self within two seconds of appearing.。

But once this kind of sign appears, it means that there is a crack in Saionji Akino's heart, and he who strictly abides by the rules has also been hit hard.

Saionji Akino looked at Asa Yu Ichiri hugging him tightly, bowing his head and not speaking.

Maybe...... Or should I go and make it clear to Ichiri formally.

It's not a good thing to drag on like this, let's have a showdown with Yili today, and I'll talk to Zhixue about it.

In the future, he will completely distance himself, and getting too close will only make Yili have some unrealistic illusions, and it will also seriously affect his will.

But...... In the end, it is important to have its own principles...... Or is it the people around you who matter?

After being biased in his heart, Saionji Akino thought of this again.

What he cherishes and wants to have so far.

Is it the glory that comes with being a handsome guy in Tokyo, the feeling of being noticed, or those achievements? Or is it the approval of others?

Seemingly, it is not.

What I cherish the most and want to have the most should be the relationship between these people around me and the priceless bond.

Saionji Akino sighed softly and continued to walk forward with Ichiri.

Although I care about it very much and want to cherish it, there are some things that I still have to face directly.

As we approach the exit, the voiceover starts again.

"These are the two passages to the world, and you can only leave here if you let go of each other's hands and go your separate ways."

"Otherwise, you will be trapped in this city of hell forever."

Saionji Akino wanted to let go of his hand, but seeing that Ichiri was still holding himself tightly, he paused for a moment, and then smiled: "Don't be afraid, Ichiri, let's just go out together." ”

They didn't quite understand the purpose of making two passages in a small classroom.

After selecting a channel that seems to have more bright light, the weird BGM suddenly stops playing, and all red lights are turned off.

When Saionji Akino and Ichiri were a little dazed, the lights switched to white and turned on again, and a headless female ghost holding her head with an extremely hideous expression on her head flashed in front of them.

At this moment, Ichiri was really frightened, but soon she found out something.

This height, as well as the pink hair leaking from the back of the prop costume.

"Sister?"

"That's right, I really can't scare the two of you, congratulations on passing the level~" Asa Yu Oriyuki's head slowly poked out of the hole in the costume, and she said with a smile: "The last clearance is divided into two, which is my little design." ”

"Although it is true that both sides can go out, if the person holding the hand separates, they will be frightened by us, on the contrary, if they go out hand in hand, they can leave safely~"

"But, Zhixue, you still came out to scare us?" Saionji Akino asked with a smile.

"Hmm~ After all, you happened to walk to the passage I was responsible for, and besides, I'm going to get off work too~" Asaba Oriyuki hugged her terrifying head to the left side, and her pink and white right hand stretched out, "Akino-kun~? ”

Saionji Akino subconsciously took her hand.

Asaka Oriyuki laughed contentedly, and then walked out of the haunted house with the two of them.

And on the side near the exit, there is a highlighter written this paragraph.

[Now, the person holding your hand, the probability of you meeting is equivalent to a miracle, so please don't let go of that hand when you return to the light again] - (from the Japanese drama Wild Boar Wars)

"Whether it's friendship or other feelings, I hope they can have a good mood when they experience this haunted house, and at the same time, I also hope that their relationship can get better and better."

Listening to Asaba Oriyuki's narration, Ichiri was stunned for a moment, and she began to squeeze Akino's hand more forcefully.

"Now, Akino-kun, do you think our meeting was a miracle?"

The moment the shadow approached the light, Asaba Oriyuki suddenly backlit up, looked back at him and asked.

“…… I think so. Saionji Akino replied without hesitation.

"Then please, don't let go of our hands?"

Oriyuki Asa said metaphorically, winking at Ichili at the same time.
