......

The school rooftop.

The three of them sat together to eat lunch.

This place has become their secret base.

"Ah, Akemi-nee's cooking is so delicious! Hoshino-kun is so lucky!"

Sonoko Suzuki generously gave one of her lunchboxes to Hoshino Ki.

The return gift he received was a steak from Hoshinogi.

"By the way... Hoshino-kun, how did you get home yesterday?"

Ran Mouri suddenly brought up what happened yesterday.

“…”

Hoshinoki's hand holding the chopsticks suddenly froze in mid-air.

He inexplicably rode away on someone else's motorcycle yesterday.

That motorcycle is still parked in his family's underground garage.

It seems I should avoid drinking alcohol in the future...

Drinking will cause trouble!

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. As long as Hoshino-kun is safe and sound!"

Ran Mouri noticed that Hoshino looked troubled.

Being understanding, she ultimately couldn't bring herself to press the matter further.

"What? You two... Hoshino-kun went to Ran's house yesterday?"

Sonoko Suzuki suddenly placed her chopsticks on the lunchbox.

Then he came over with a look of "eagerness".

"Yes...yes! Sonoko, don't misunderstand, it was me who broke Hoshino-kun's phone."

"I bought a new one yesterday and returned it to him!"

Ran Mouri waved her hand to calm Sonoko Suzuki down.

"Oh, that's how it is!"

A hint of suspicion appeared in Sonoko Suzuki's eyes.

Her gaze swept back and forth across their faces.

I wanted to find some clue on their faces.

Hoshinogi's expression never changed.

It remained calm and profound from beginning to end.

I knew I couldn't tell anything from his face.

Sonoko Suzuki then turned her gaze back to Ran Mouri's face.

Ran Mouri's face was flushed.

Sweat beaded on his forehead.

Her gaze averted the moment it met Sonoko Suzuki's eyes.

"!!!?"

Sonoko Suzuki believed she had caught Ran Mouri red-handed.

So he angrily lunged at her.

"Xiao Lan! Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely!"

"what!"

Sonoko Suzuki pinned Ran Mouri down and began tickling her!

"Hahaha! No!"

"watch out!"

The two women were not at all shy or reserved.

He started tickling Hoshino Ki right in front of her.

The sound of laughter echoed across the rooftop, soaring into the sky.

The birds in the sky also provided accompaniment for the two of them.

In an instant, they composed a beautiful symphony.

Hoshino took his own spoon and scooped up his lunch.

They worked hard, adhering to the principle that every grain of rice is hard-earned.

"Stop fooling around, Sonoko!"

Ran Mouri was laughing so hard she was exhausted.

She dodged and weaved to avoid Sonoko Suzuki's attacks.

"Confess the truth!"

Sonoko Suzuki stopped attacking.

He pulled her up in a very serious manner.

"Nothing else really!"

Ran Mouri straightened her collar.

After they finished playing around, the two came to Hoshinoki and continued eating.

Ran Mouri asked:

"By the way, Sonoko, have you found that fraudster who impersonated you?"

Sonoko Suzuki looked around.

Seeing that no one was around, he quietly leaned closer and said:

"Found him! He's just an ordinary middle-aged man! Officer Sato has already arrested him!"

"Also, that Oyamada... because of the explosion... even the doctors couldn't do anything about it. Apparently, her family took her to Thailand for gender reassignment surgery..."

"what?!"

Ran Mouri looked up in shock.

"Really! Although I overheard this..."

Sonoko Suzuki helplessly slumped her hands.

Lunch is over.

The three of them walked together toward the classroom.

suddenly!

A figure suddenly appeared halfway through the journey, rushing towards them.

The figure's target was clear.

Only Hoshinogi was there.

Ran Mouri immediately sensed that something was wrong.

"Hoshino-kun! Watch out!"

But it was too late.

Because the other person is a girl who is quite agile.

Therefore, Ran Mouri did not immediately stand in front of Hoshino to form a defense.

Only a flash of cold light was seen.

The girl was holding a sharp knife.

"boom!"

Just for a moment.

The dagger had already penetrated Hoshinoki's abdomen.

"Ahhh!"

in the crowd.

A scream suddenly rang out from somewhere.

The students around them scattered and fled.

Only Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki remained standing in place.
