Chapter 777

~5 min read 964 words

The two left the infirmary and walked on the tree-lined path of Sobu High, side by side.

Facing Lin Ye's occasional closeness, Sakurajima Mai took the initiative to open up the distance, but after the number of times increased, she gave up and let Lin Ye be.

However, facing her giving up the struggle, Lin Ye didn't continue, maintaining a normal distance and strolling with her.

Sobu High in the late afternoon,

the sound of teaching from the teaching building.

Because of Sakurajima Mai's request, Lin Ye accompanied her for a walk around Sobu High.

But this scene fell into the eyes of students by the classroom window of the teaching building.

Yukinoshita was one of them; she was sitting by the window, and with one look out the window, she saw Lin Ye strolling alone below.

She frowned slightly, somewhat unable to understand why Lin Ye was strolling around the school alone.

And the scene where he was speaking while walking even more aroused her suspicion.

"It seems... like he's communicating with someone."

Communicating with whom?

Once this question came to mind, Yukinoshita Yukino's frown deepened even more.

A trace of hesitation and a familiar feeling were emerging; she seemed to be able to think of it, but no matter how she racked her brains, she didn't know what it was.

She couldn't remember.

"It's probably another matter that Lin Ye has temporarily postponed and hasn't told me about."

She could only wait for Lin Ye to inform her voluntarily.

Anyway, that guy shouldn't think about muddling through; absolutely not.

Yukinoshita Yukino thought.

Isshiki Iroha, who was also sitting by the window, saw it too.

She was even more excited.

After having long realized that Lin Ye was talking to some invisible existence, Isshiki Iroha was now further confirming her guess.

"Senior must be communicating with that invisible existence right now."

"If Senior doesn't communicate, will that one come to harm the school?"

In other words, Senior was currently protecting the school, protecting all the teachers and students of the school.

Sacrificing himself to protect Sobu High.

Wow!

Hero.

The two words suddenly appeared in Isshiki Iroha's mind.

She felt Lin Ye must be such a person.

That invisible existence must be a female, right?

Otherwise, how could she have set her sights on Senior?

Isshiki Iroha's smile was irrepressible.

"Senior, you just wait for me!"

In a while, she would make Senior confess everything honestly.

She now held a handle on Senior.

'Ding-a-ling...'

The bell rang.

Isshiki Iroha packed up her desk, suppressing her inner excitement, and walked toward the Service Club.

'Knock, knock, knock...'

"Please come in."

"Good afternoon, Senior, Senior..."

Isshiki Iroha greeted with a smile.

But she looked around and only saw Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuigahama Yui; she didn't see Lin Ye's figure at all.

"Good afternoon, Iroha-chan."

Yuigahama Yui responded first, and Yukinoshita Yukino greeted normally.

"Senior, hasn't he arrived yet?"

"Lin Ye-kun asked for leave today and isn't participating in club activities."

"Eh, eh, eh!"

Isshiki Iroha made a surprised sound. "Asked, asked for leave... is Senior not feeling well?"

"I... suppose so!"

Yuigahama Yui wasn't very certain.

But at this moment, Yukinoshita Yukino spoke up. "During class this afternoon, he submitted a request for leave to the teacher and didn't return to the classroom."

'Buzz, buzz, buzz...'

Yukinoshita Yukino's phone vibrated for a while.

She looked at the caller information.

It was a text message sent by Lin Ye.

"He won't be coming."

Isshiki Iroha immediately understood that Lin Ye had already sent a message to Senior saying he wouldn't participate in club activities.

Wow!

How could this be?

She was planning to strike, to use the handle to threaten Senior, to make Senior satisfy her curiosity, but Senior simply didn't come to the Service Club at all.

This was probably already anticipating her threat!

"No, no, no, how could Senior anticipate it? Having such early foresight must be a coincidence; this must be a coincidence."

She nodded, feeling her analysis had no problems.

"Senior, I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

After speaking,

Isshiki Iroha bowed slightly to Yukinoshita and Yuigahama to show respect, then turned and left.

'Thump...'

The Service Club classroom door closed once again.

The small Service Club was left with only Yukinoshita and Yuigahama.

"It's just the two of us again, Yukinon."

Yukinoshita nodded gently in agreement.

"Yukinon, Iroha-chan must have been looking for Lin Ye-kun for something. What do you think it could be?"

Yuigahama Yui was very certain that Isshiki Iroha's arrival today was for Lin Ye. In the past, when Isshiki Iroha came to the Service Club, even if Lin Ye wasn't there, Isshiki Iroha would still stay for a while, but this time, Isshiki Iroha left immediately after learning Lin Ye wasn't there.

This made her very certain that Isshiki Iroha looking for Lin Ye definitely had a relatively important matter.

"I don't know."

"Should I go and find out?"

"She has already left."

"That... that's true!"

Yuigahama Yui slumped down.

Now, even if she chased after her, she wouldn't know how to find a suitable entry point.

"Could it be that Iroha-chan intends to confess to Lin Ye-kun?"

Suddenly, Yuigahama Yui proposed a guess.

Facing Yukinoshita Yukino's scrutinizing gaze, Yuigahama Yui became anxious and waved her hands repeatedly, explaining in a panic, "This... isn't Iroha-chan always very enthusiastic and active toward Lin Ye-kun, occasionally even ambiguous?"

"If she didn't like Lin Ye-kun, she definitely wouldn't do that, right?"

"It's her personality."

This was the answer Yukinoshita Yukino gave.

But inwardly, she still held a certain degree of recognition for Yuigahama Yui's explanation; if Isshiki Iroha didn't like Lin Ye, how could she be so active and intimate toward Lin Ye? ===== CHAPTER 778 =====
