Classroom Of The Elite Year 2 Volume 9

Part 6

Although it took some time, I was able to obtain some important information that led me to the truth of the shoplifting matter.

With Asahina's help, I didn't waste any time but that's precisely why I want to stop for a moment.

I was on the verge of getting a solution on the day I embarked on my investigation.

I can attribute it to good fortune, of course, including unintended coincidences.

That's why I'm not satisfied.

It's not that Asahina, Yamanaka or Tachibana are lying.

What would happen if I reported these results to Kiryuuin as they are?

And what is the goal of the person who set this all up?

I feel that depending on the decision and the outcome here, there is a possibility that it will affect the third-years.

I decided to send a message to Kiryuuin, leaving out the crux of the matter.

The question is whether or not Kiryuuin will be on board, but since she wants a solution, I don't think there will be any problems.

I returned from Keyaki Mall and reached the dorms.

There were no messages on my phone from Kei after all, and there was no sign of her in the lobby.

As long as she is a parasite of a host, she will not be able to take independent action on her own.

The elevator stopped at the first floor, so I got in and went to the fourth floor.

Instead of Kei, let's get Kiryuuin's matter in order first.

That's what I was thinking, but...

"Welcome back, Ayanokoji-kun."

When I got off the elevator, Ichinose, who was wearing a coat, smiled at me.

It looks like she was waiting for me in front of my room.

"What happened?"

"Hm? I just wanted to see you. Is it a problem?"

"It's not. Didn't you have to wait a long time, though?"

I usually come back at 5 o'clock, but it was already around 6 o'clock since I had to make a detour because of Asahina and the other year-three students.

Ichinose curiously pulled out her phone and checked the time.

"Whoa. When did it get this late? I never noticed."

I thought she was being considerate to me, but it doesn't feel like it.

"Just how long have you been there?"

"Umm, a little after school ended... Since after 4:30 p.m., I think."

So she had been on her feet for at least an hour and a half here.

When she said "see you later", I guess that meant she was going to visit me.

"I wish you'd have called first."

Even if we couldn't meet up right away, I could have told her the time I'd be back.

"No, it would be bad to disturb you."

It's not a problem of it being a good or a bad thing, but...

If she isn't bothered by having to wait, there's nothing else for me to say.

"Umm, it's not like there's anything I have to talk to you about, but..."

She apologetically said so while waiting for me to talk.
