The Azure Sea is not a warrior with ripped clothes.

"You all must...die!!!"

"Senior Azusa, that's a bit too much..."

Perhaps because there were so many people, Aina didn't scream in fright this time, and Chisa Kotegawa, no longer restrained, was completely speechless.

After all, it's better if a female ghost doesn't speak; once she does, the sense of fear drops drastically.

Besides, Senior Zi isn't one of the three scumbags who's multi-talented. Even if someone who can't change their voice is using a different tone, familiar people can still tell that their voice is similar to someone else's!

"Huh? It's not Azusa-senpai, it's that poor girl who was pushed into the school lake by jealous female classmates, her eyes wide open, unwilling to die~"

"Don't add so many settings to yourself without your permission!"

With a sigh, she turned to look at the source of the heavy footsteps behind her and said, rubbing her temples, "Yuya, don't attack from behind. Iori and the others are pitiful."

"Yu!"

Every hair on his body stood on end. He had been so focused on the female ghost Azusa that he hadn't noticed. Kitahara Iori huddled behind Chisa, feeling a chill run down his spine, his eyes filled with disdain.

"Chisa, this guy isn't wearing panties!"

"What are you talking about, Iori? Aren't you a staunch advocate of not wearing panties?"

It was as if she was looking at an idiot. Chisa simply couldn't understand why the guy who drank alcohol with her every day and slept with her would be scared by Yuu who wasn't wearing panties.

Kohei Imamura felt seriously offended by this. It's true that they like freedom, but forcing men to lock them up is just too much!

"No, Chisa! This guy is poking my butt! He's poking my butt!"

"Wait! Let me make it clear beforehand that the one who bumped your butt was a novice. Please don't slander a decent man's sexual orientation!"

Reaching out to stop Kohei's self-destructive rant, Miyazawa Yuu tossed the "used" konjac to him from afar, shrugged, and said helplessly, "Kouhei really doesn't learn his lesson; he gets fooled by the same trick twice."

"You bastard!"

Even konjac won't do! Do you know how much psychological damage it does to a boy to have his butt bumped?!

Having finally uncovered the truth, Kohei Imamura immediately prepared to confront Yu with a ferocious expression, but Mana, who was tightly holding him around the waist, held him firmly in place.

"Wait a minute! Wait until the top floor! You can settle your scores there, okay?!"

The number of familiar bastards has increased again. When the number reaches six and the strongest fighter among the new students is back in place, Yoshihara Aina is no longer so afraid.

But being afraid is one thing, while having weak legs and clinging tightly to Kōhei to keep from falling is another!

Seeing that the three Pabs were about to start a Mortal Kombat game in this dark hall, she quickly and pitifully begged to go upstairs and wait until she found her seniors!

"Oh right! Since the white-clad female ghost was actually Yu and Azusa-senpai in disguise..."

Holding up a finger, she suddenly recalled the fleeting figure in the music classroom, and asked specifically, "What about the elementary school student I saw outside the music classroom..."

"Huh? What elementary school students? We didn't arrange anything like that."

"Hiss... Mana saw it too?"

Sensing that something was amiss, Kitahara Iori kicked the konjac on the ground in a fit of anger, while also recalling the figure she had seen before entering the teaching building.

"Is she a long-haired elementary school girl? Probably a head taller than the window?"

"No! He's a male elementary school student; at most, only his scalp will be showing!"

Shaking her head frantically, Aina was certain that her judgment couldn't be wrong, judging from the hairstyle! The one running past Chisa was definitely the shorter, spiky-haired boy!

This was strange. Iori said she saw a tall girl, while Mana said she saw a short boy, and the scene fell silent for a moment.

Taking off her wet wig and clutching it in her hand, Miyazawa Yu tilted her head in confusion and asked, "At this elementary school age, it's normal for girls to develop earlier, right? Are they siblings?"

"That's not the point! The point is, aren't these two people really just people the seniors used to scare people?"

"How is that possible?"

Waving her hand, Hamaoka Azusa brushed aside her hair and explained with an unconfident expression, "Putting aside the little boy, Nanaka definitely can't disguise herself as a little girl! So you must have seen wrong!"

"Really?"

The chances of two people misreading something are extremely small, but since Azusa-senpai has said so, Yoshihara Aina can only temporarily attribute the situation to a visual illusion.

Moreover, the most urgent task right now is to find the way and meet up with the seniors. It's best to put these minor issues aside for the time being!

"Yu, did you guys bring any extra batteries? The flashlight seems to be out of power..."

"Out of power? That shouldn't be the case. It's a rechargeable flashlight; I fully charged it myself yesterday!"

Miyazawa Yu shook his head regretfully, indicating that he couldn't help. Seeing this, Imamura Kohei waved his flashlight and casually said, "Then let's use this one. Anyway, there's only one more stretch of road left."

"Yes, the rooftop is just up from here..."

"Da da da!"

Before Miyazawa Yu could finish speaking, the crisp sound of footsteps echoing in the empty teaching building silenced the rest of his sentence.

This is the crisp sound of rubber shoes stepping on tiles. If you really want to say that the indoor shoes that elementary school students have to change into before class are made of this material!

As the footsteps drew closer, Kohei Imamura instantly became alert and shone his flashlight in the direction of the sound. In the flickering light, two pairs of elementary school students' legs came into view.

Moreover, as the brand-new rubber-soled shoes continued to move forward, the red and blue-soled elementary school students' sports pants and white shirts successively showed their own style.

"Big brother, big sister..."

The ethereal child's voice struck the floor and then bounced back against the wall, echoing.

Finally, they were fully inside the light. The male and female elementary school students held hands tightly, but their faces were hidden in shadows due to their short stature and drooping heads, making it impossible to see any facial features.

"Can... you take us home? We can't get out of this school, there's no way..."

"Gah..."

Her body froze on the spot, and the scream that Yoshihara Aina was about to utter turned into a strange duck quack.

Not only her, but even Chisa, who was usually quite calm, rolled her eyes this time—unable to go home and unable to leave, isn't this just pure earthbound spirit!

No! I have to run! But...

Even though she was screaming in her heart to urge her feet to move, she found that she seemed to be stiff with fear, and no matter how she moved her feet, she couldn't take a single step!

Just when she was in complete despair, hoping that she wouldn't look too ugly after being scared to death, those annoying hands on her waist and abdomen lifted her up with unusual strength.

Kitahara Iori, with a stiff face and without saying a word, picked up Chisa and ran. He seemed fearless in the face of danger, but in reality, Chisa was probably already dead, and his current behavior was entirely out of instinct.

Kohei Imamura was in the same situation; before Mana's soul could leave her body in fright, he quickly covered her eyes.

What happened next is unknown to Aina, whose soul was chasing after her; only the jolts of her body confirmed that she was still alive.

"...Yeah, I'm so sad~"

Her companions vanished in three seconds, leaving the white-clad female ghost abandoned on the spot. Helplessly, she let down her hair and complained to the white-clad male ghost, "Nobody cares about my senior at all! Iori and Kohei are so mean!"

"Alright~ then it'll just be the two of us committing suicide together!"

With a perfectly cooperative expression of resignation, Miyazawa Yu placed his hands behind his back on his head and said wistfully, "We'll be together in the next life, Azusa-senpai!"

"Hahaha! Alright, but let's wait until we're drinking before sending Iori and the others to hell!"

"Brother, when are you going to give us the candy you promised?"

Ignored, and with the handsome older brothers and sisters showing off their affection, the clever elementary school students of the new era in Japan immediately removed their scary filters, raised their heads, and flocked around them in a charming manner.

As we all know, whether it's a cell phone or pocket money, it's best to wait until the adults start asking for it; they might give you more than you need!

"Yes, yes, thank you for your wonderful performance. You'll definitely get the promised snacks!"

After patting each child's head, Miyazawa Yu gained a deeper understanding of how clever children are these days.

These children were brought by backpackers who were also camping at the primary school. Although the two children were not siblings, they cooperated very well and their acting skills were amazing!

Whether it was the fleeting moment that added psychological pressure or the tearful tone at the end, it was all perfect! A reward is warranted!

"Oh~ it looks like it's working really well!"

"Senior Shou, please return the child to their family..."

Looking at the bodyguard who was greeting him and walking towards him, Miyazawa Yu handed the two children over to him with peace of mind. As for him and Azusa-senpai, they still had to continue to follow the two strange couples who were not being honest!

Chapter 239 Senior Sister Zi? Guardian Angel of Emotions!

"Phew! We're saved..."

In the dusty toilet cubicle, Yoshihara Aina, with a look of relief that came after surviving a close call, bowed deeply in reverence before the laminated composite board.

At this moment, she was extremely grateful that the operator of this primary school at least had some humanity; the toilet stalls even had locks, and this strong sense of security was incomparable to the open-air stalls!

Although there is no rule that ghosts cannot pass through walls, it is as common as the custom of covering one's head with a blanket at night and not daring to stick one's hands and feet out!

"Thank you, Kohei. If it weren't for you, I probably would have been caught..."

"..."

Thank you sincerely. After waiting for a few minutes and not hearing any sounds of the twin demons chasing after her outside, Yoshihara Mana finally felt relieved and began to speak.

To be honest, she was completely stunned when those two children appeared. This kind of terrifying plot with its twists and turns was no less devastating to her heart than a Kirov airship bombing!

Fortunately, Kohei picked her up and ran away in time. Although his posture was a bit disappointing, the fact that she thought of him first instead of running away alone was enough to move her!

At the same time, the adrenaline released by fear caused a surge in dopamine and hormone production, and amidst her gratitude and confusion, her mind dragged back the questions that had abruptly ended yesterday—

How does Kohei really see himself? As a friend? Or as a woman?

"Plow, plow..."

Her face turned bright red from the strenuous exercise, and the aftereffects of the shock were kicking in. Yoshihara Aina felt her mind was in a mess, and her heart was racing.

Furthermore, with a man and a woman in a small cubicle, surrounded by danger outside, the atmosphere of shared hardship prompted her to blurt out the remaining half of her sentence—"Why did you choose to save me first?"

"..."

In a quiet little space, even the longest echo of a sound will be swallowed up by silence.

However, just like before, there was no response from behind. Yoshihara Aina could only hear her own heart beating strongly, and apart from that... there was no second breath.

"Tengping?"

This time, the call carried a hint of confusion. She turned her head in bewilderment and saw Kohei Imamura rolling his eyes, looking as if he had already smelled bad.

"Kohei ahhhhhh!!!"

"Stop yelling... I'm not dead yet..."

With his breath barely a whisper, Kohei Imamura's world consisted only of a small patch of Mana in front of him. In fact, given his gaming addiction and lack of athletic ability, it wouldn't be wrong to say he was dead now.

The two high-speed sprints were less than ten minutes apart, and the latter one was carrying nearly 100 pounds of weight. It would be strange if he could have done it without the adrenaline rush!

However, when it comes to physical health, you have to pay back what you've overdrawn. He is undoubtedly in a phase similar to paying back debts after a physical fitness test.

Forget about speaking, he can't even be bothered to maintain a simple breath!

"Ugh... I thought you were dead! It's good that you're still alive, Kohei. Hang in there, Senpai will come to save us soon!"

Almost scared to death by Kohei's silent presence, Yoshihara Aina instantly burst into tears and threw herself into his arms, sobbing uncontrollably. She even started to stammer and speak incoherently.

This rambling continued for a long time, until the strong heartbeat in her ear made the girl's cheek numb, and she went from bursting into tears to sobbing softly.

"So... Kohei must have heard what I just said, right? What was the reason?"

"Aina, that's going a bit too far..."

I originally thought that since Aina is timid, it would be good for her to release stress by crying a bit. As for my diaper being wet with tears and snot... I can just wash it when I get back!

But when Kohei Murakami was patting the back of her head, he immediately heard Aina pressing for answers even while sobbing, and he couldn't hold back any longer!

"We're running for our lives right now! Does that matter!?"

"Very important!!!"

Suddenly raising her little head, Yoshihara Aina's eyes were red from crying, but her stubbornness remained undiminished.

Gritting his teeth, he lifted himself halfway off Kohei. In the darkness, the two could only barely make out each other's eyes by the moonlight streaming through the window, and the feelings contained within them—

"This concerns what I will do in the future... Please tell me the truth!"

"..."

Knowing that this was Aina's stubborn temper flaring up again, Kohei Imamura sighed, his lips moving but no sound came out.

It turns out that even with the added bonus of blond hair, anime fans are still anime fans. Trying to get them to express what they're thinking is like hoping for knives to fall from the sky!

However, just as he was about to turn his head away to avoid the question, the glint of tears in Aina's eyes froze him in his tracks.

"I don't know, I just feel that Aina is very important, so important that I can't give up on her, so my body just started moving on its own..."
