Chapter 73 The arm of the abyss is already under your feet
"My pride - my soul! The dragon that inherited my life! Let me show you the form of my servant! Come out, Blue-Eyes White Dragon!"

"Ah! My hand is stuck again! I don't want to play anymore, I don't want to play anymore!"

Early in the morning, when Shimizu walked into the classroom of Class 2-B, he immediately heard the laughter of Ishikawa Shinichi and others.

He was sitting at the desk in the middle of the classroom, playing a battle card game with other students he was close to, such as Kento Kiri and Rikuo Ishigaki.

After entering the classroom, Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori went to their respective seats.

As soon as he sat down in his seat, Kikuchi Kei from the table in front of him turned around and greeted him.

"Good morning, Shimizu-san."

"Good morning."

"Thank you so much for what happened that day."

Kikuchi Megumi bowed her head politely to express her gratitude. When she bowed her head, her shoulder-length, slightly curly brown hair gently caressed her cheek.

"It's okay, it's just a small matter."

"If possible, I would like to find an opportunity to thank you properly. Although all I can do is something as small as treating you to a meal."

Kikuchi Kei smiled gently. She probably guessed that Shimizu Ken would refuse, so she immediately added a sentence.

"If Shimizu-san doesn't have time, I won't force you. You can wait until you have time later."

The other party has said so much, and it would be pretentious to refuse.

"OK then."

Seeing that Shimizu agreed, Kikuchi Kei's mood was obviously a little happier, and then she returned to her seat.

"Morning, see you. Did anything good happen this weekend?"

The one who patted Shimizumi's shoulder from behind was Ishikawa Shinichi. He seemed to have been defeated in the card battle just now.

"Good thing?"

"Still pretending, is that necklace on Amamiya-san's neck given by you?"

Ishikawa Shinichi pointed to the front of the classroom, where Amamiya Iori was chatting with the girls.

She wore a silver necklace with floral patterns on it, which looked very fashionable.

Just as Ishikawa Shinichi said, it was a gift that Shimizu bought for Haruka Sakurai when they went out on the weekend.

Of course, there is also Haruka Sakurai.

However, that will have to wait a few days, until the sports meet, when she wins the championship like she did in the previous two years and achieves three consecutive championships, and then I will give it to her as a surprise.

The two pieces of jewelry that Shimizu bought are of different styles, but beautiful women can basically wear anything. Although it is a personal feeling, the necklace is very suitable for Amamiya Iori.

While she was wearing it, she would stroke the necklace from time to time, as if she took it very seriously.

Although it seemed like a subconscious behavior, it also showed her inner thoughts.

At this time, Kondo Yuichi happened to arrive in the classroom, and he sat directly in his seat. Then he looked at Amamiya Iori who was surrounded by his friends, and lowered his head and lay on the table as usual.

Completely depressed... Although not to the point of being so serious, because of what Amamiya Iori said earlier, one can sense a kind of sadness from the atmosphere emanating from him.

In a sense, the current situation is exactly the same as in Act 1.

However, Shimizu Mi did not follow the original story line, but used his own way to help Amamiya Iori break free from the constraints of her character and embark on the path she wanted to take.

Today's Amamiya Iori's state of mind is very different from that of the first round. Now she has completely deviated from the trajectory of the heroine, which may mean that the development of this world has developed to a point where it cannot be corrected at all.

"By the way, why haven't you been talking to Kondo-san recently?" Ishikawa Shinichi kept bringing up the topic.

"..."

In fact, two days had passed since that morning.

After that, although Kondo Yuichi came to school as usual every day, he never said a word to Amemiya Iori or Shimizu Mi.

Although the person who said those words to him was Amamiya Iori, he himself seemed to vaguely realize that the reason behind it was Shimizu Mi.

After all, now Amemiya Iori is no longer bound by her character setting, and has been staying by Shimizu Mi these days. Anyone can see something is going on.

"Forget it, if you don't want to talk about it, don't ask."

Shinichi Ishikawa saw that Shimizu didn't want to talk about this topic, so he gave up asking any further questions.

Shimizu Mi said sorry. He knew that Ishikawa Shinichi was concerned about him, but he really didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer.

So the two changed the subject and started talking about other things.

"The sports meet will start in two days."

"Well, you should be attending the men's baseball game, right?"

"Yes."

Ishikawa Shin nodded.

"Then remember to work hard in the training these two days."

"It's more motivating if a cute girl says this to me."

Qing Shuijian rolled his eyes at him and slowly uttered one word: "Get lost."

Afterwards, he said he wanted to go to the bathroom, and Shinichi Ishikawa followed him.

While passing through the corridor, Qingshuijian noticed a petite girl walking towards him.

The girl was looking at him and Shinichi Ishikawa, exclaimed, and then ran towards them.

"Hello, Ishikawa-senpai!"

"Ah, hello, Onodera-san."

This girl seems to know Shinichi Ishikawa.

After the two of them greeted each other, she turned her gaze to Shimizumi.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Onodera Rin, and I'm a freshman who just enrolled this year. If I'm not mistaken, you should be the senior Shimizu, right?!"

"……Um."

Shimizu looked confused and asked, "How do you know me?"

"It's like this. Recently, there was a very beautiful girl among the freshmen. She was holding a photo and asking around for Senior Qingshui, so I had the honor of meeting him once."

"A freshman? Asking about me?"

Hearing this, Qing Shuijian's heart was stirred.

Is something going to happen again?
Death is really like the wind, always by my side.
