"Since Kou said so, it seems we need another way."

A sigh left your lips as you jumped down on your feet against the hard floor, pulling out a familiar-looking pocket watch with a chain that Akane had to look at the one in his pocket to see that . . .

"It's kind of similar with mine."

He pointed out, observing the one in your palm with eyes slightly squinted. You rolled your eyes after seeing the look on his face,

"That's because I copied it from you, dummy."You tittered, swinging the item by the end of its chain before putting away the pocket watch back into your pocket, "I'm not going to explain in detail so I'm making it short."

"You could say that I'm borrowing yours and other representatives of Mystery No. 1's powers. So don't be angry just because I didn't tell you so—"

"Don't smile like that."He cut you off and your smile instantly dropped but quickly putting it back on your lips and yet, instead of a beatific one, people and even yourself would describe it like a jittery one because you're about to unleash the hysterical madman inside that innocent-looking young boy.

"I told you that there's no need to be an— Actually, you can be mad with me. Because if I didn't do so, you could stare at your Ao-chan much longer."You confessed with head hung low,

"Hold on! You're telling me that I could stare at Ao-chan for 20 minutes every day if it wasn't because of you?!"

"20 minutes is much shorter."

You watched his eyes widened like a full moon and quickly took multiple backward steps but he stopped you from doing so by grabbing both your wrists, his eyes swirled which hinted you at how he was about to lose his sane-self,

"Don't screw around with me!"

"C'mon, another 5 minutes didn't make any difference."

As soon as he shrieked, you pulled out the item in your pocket and in the blink of an eye, stopping his movement along with his time.

"I want to tease him much longer but I need to go and find someone."You sighed with a smile and look over to the blonde-haired boy; who is now, unfortunately, looking exactly like the person you despise the most— over his shoulder,

"And this is a tip, do not ever let Mirai, "You paused in the middle of your sentence, index finger gestured to the small pouting supernatural and shifted it to the dual-hair colored girl,

"Touch this Daikon-ojou-chan."

"Is there something that would hap—"

"I understand."

The simple two words coming from the supernatural boy silenced the two students as they look at him in confusion at how his jolly persona twisted into something like . . . consequential.

"H-Hanako-kun?"

"Very well, "Pleased with his answer, the grin that has been conquering your lips widened and wordlessly left them alone without sparing them any glance.

Stepping out from inside the room and heels spun around, heading to where the boundary of the first school mystery was located.

You halted in your tracks when large palms blocked your view, seeing nothing aside from darkness with some lights from the moon shone through the gaps of their fingers.

"Guess who~?"

"What's up with your tone, Teru. Did you eat something weird? Or maybe—"

You pried away two surprisingly cold hands off from blocking your vision, turning around to glare at them.

The glare hardened upon realizing the owner of those hands, it didn't take any minute to your whole face flushed red in abhorrence nor disgust that you just made a contact with their skin as if it was putrid that was enough to make your stomach turn.

"Why . . . "

Grisly standing there, eyes of yours bore through his face with nothing but antipathy when you hissed out your question that's filled with venom,

"Why the hell are you here, you damn malefactor?"

───────────────

All eyes swiftly followed the source of the sound of the door slides open, watching the large figure stepped inside the room with his black robe hides most of his limbs.

"You're finally here, old man. Ukiyo-san must have a hard time finding you. I'm kind of pitying her."The orangish-haired boy sneered with his arms crossed despite you had him frozen in time for 10 minutes.

Even with his face was hidden beneath the bird-like mask, Kako tilted his head slightly to the side with perplexity was reflected on his crinkled face,

"If my memories didn't deceive me, I haven't see Ukiyo-san today."

Eyebrows furrowed together at the tall supernatural's words, Akane narrowed his rust-colored eyes while eyeing him suspiciously,

"What do you mean?"

"And the one who found me was . . ."

Their eyes moved simultaneously upon hearing light footsteps coming from behind. The light jiggling sound of a bell was heard echoed throughout the hallway which is getting closer.

Hanako had his grip around the unconscious girl's body slightly tightened and lowered down his vision down on the floor along with other supernaturals when the oldest member of school mystery number 1 continued his unfinished sentence, stepping to the side to give them a space to walk in,

"Honorable No. 8."

So I really hope you guys stay healthy and drink a lot of water :)
