...Going home?

...That's right. What do you want, Tochika.

Didn't I say to call me by my first name?

Why should I? That'd be weird.

I have my reasons, and circumstances require it. ...Please, at least around that fox mask.

........So?

Hm?

Did you catch me on my way home just to say that?

No, I didn't. I came here to ask you something.

To ask me...?

That fox mask will most likely appear to you again today. I was wondering what you'll do if he does.

What do you mean, "what"...

Have you come up with any countermeasures? He's a formidable opponent.

........Not really.

Hm?

I haven't thought of anything, okay? Get out of my way already. I don't know about you, but I wanna go home.

...Is that really alright?

Is what alright?



........That thing's a danger to you.

Seriously, the hell are you talking about? Don't tell me you want to follow me or something.



.......There's safety in numbers.

.......Seriously, you...

What can you even do, if I bring you along? Are you gonna drive him away for me?

That would be the best-case scenario, I think.

.......

What's wrong?

For your information, as far as I'm concerned, you and that guy aren't any different. In the sense that you both won't leave me alone.

That's...you're only saying such things because you don't know its true identity.

..........True identity? What do you mean? Do you know something?

...I've just heard a few things, is all.

...Like what?

.......I can't really explain it in detail...

If you can't tell me then don't mention it in the first place.

........Still, if you value your life, don't get involved with that thing.

.......What's that supposed to mean?

.......Exactly what you think it means.

Hey, Tsubaki, we're holding another test prep session today...

...Suzuki.

...Hm?



Muh?

W-wha...y-you're Tochika! Why are you and Tsubaki...!?



...He's not with me. Right, see you tomorrow, Suzuki.

Huh? Wai...?



.......Tch, so he got away...

.......Uh...

.......

He...he's staring at me...

.......

H-he's glaring...!!!!

.......

.......Huuhh?.....
