COTE: The Mad Demon

Chapter 25 - There's Something Hidden

Okuma POV

In the school named ANHS, aside from the school buildings such as classrooms, play courts, swim courts, and a mall, there is also a building called special building.

This building is where some activities that requires a unique type of classroom to teach students in their respective subjects are being held. An example of this is an AV room.

However, these types of special classrooms are rarely being used because most of the classes are always being held in a classroom, specifically located in the main school building, since there's no reason to use it excessively.

And because of that, some operations on the school are being halted due to the lack of students using this building.

Now that summer heat is coming, many students will definitely suffer if they ever enter inside the special classroom because of the shutting off of AC's.

"Hmm, now what?". I asked myself as I peered into the windows.

After class, I decided to explore all places in this school, including this special building. However, I don't have a clear goal of mind on how can I effectively use my time to have productive results.

And since I don't have any idea how to start, I should just go to the next floor.

"Huh?".

When I got up, I saw a girl who wears a cute casual clothes, doing a cutesy pose in front of a camera that is placed on the window. Looking at her appearance, her hair is pink as the Sakura Tree while it was somehow tied in a bland pigtails. As she saw my existence, however, her smile was twitching a bit, maybe shocked at my presence.

"..."

While we looked at each other, silence ensued. Because of it, the atmosphere became increasingly awkward, which increases the awkwardness and silence at the same time.

I then turned around, trying to walk down from the stairs. I tried to be as quiet as a ghost as I go further away from her. However, the moment I did so, someone grabbed my shoulder, stopping me on advancing even further.

"Wait!".

At the girls scream, she immediately tightened her grip at me. Her face became flushed in embarrassment as she can't handle it any longer. Even if it doesn't hurt, can't you be a bit gentle?

"Don't worry. I didn't really see it clearly".

"... Really?".

At her question, I nodded. "Of course. The way you did a cute pose that could enamored a lot of men, from younger to older audiences, I'm totally sure that I didn't see it".

"You really did saw it!". She cried.

After that, tears started flowing from her eyes. As if she got violated by some random man that was just coincidentally walked up to the stairs. I mean, c'mon, can you blame me? Just look for other places, please!

Dealing with this crying girl will be a pain in the ass. I don't need to babysit her, do I?

But speaking of her crying figure, she looks very familiar. Her blue eyes reflecting the the shine of the blue lively ocean. Coupled it with her pink hair, I knew that I heard these characteristics before.

"Please stop crying. We won't go anywhere if you continue that".

At my plead, she started to slowly calmed herself until her breathing became more stabled. She then looked at me in the eye, with her eyes still shaking.
