My deskmate is actually my yandere reader.

After washing up, when she returned to her bedroom to change her clothes, Kurose Izumi tactfully avoided her and went to the bathroom to wash her face.

He simply washed his face and casually dried it with a tissue, without using any of Shiraishi Chirei's toiletries.

No matter what, using a girl's toiletries is too shameful and goes too far.

'It's surprising that Shiraishi-san has a girlish side too...'

Kurose Izumi looked at the fan toothbrush cup with a cute bear print on it and thought to herself.

What he didn't know was that even her toiletries had been changed!

It could be said that everything he could see in this house was what Shiraishi Chiren wanted him to see!

As I came out of the restroom, I ran into Shiraishi Chiren, who had changed into her school uniform and exuded a dignified air.

"I'm sorry, I usually don't make breakfast in the morning, I just buy bread outside, so I can't treat you to breakfast."

"It's alright, it's alright. I'd feel really embarrassed if you had to make me breakfast!" Kurose Izumi quickly waved her hand. "I usually just buy bread from outside."

"Okay, shall we go to school then? It's getting late."

The two of them took a total of half an hour to wash up and change clothes.

It's 7:25 now, and there's still an hour and a half before class starts, so I can go quite leisurely.

However, both of them have the habit of going to bed early and getting up early, and they will also read books and review their lessons when they go to school.

"That's true."

Kurose Izumi nodded, but then looked troubled: "But it might not be appropriate for me to wear this outfit, right? My school uniform is still at my house."

As students, we definitely have to wear school uniforms to school; that's a school rule.

If you don't have a school uniform, at least wear a gym uniform and explain why you're not wearing a school uniform.

Unfortunately, both school uniforms and sports uniforms are gender-specific.

This means that Shiraishi Chiren cannot lend it to him!

Shiraishi Chiren rested her chin on her hand and pondered, "Let's go back and get it together. That person can't possibly wait for you there all night."

"R-Really?" Kurose Izumi was a little scared that Kuchiki Touko was actually waiting for him there.

After all, her thought process is different from that of normal people, otherwise she wouldn't have done things like kidnapping and imprisonment!

"Are you an idiot, Kurose-kun?"

Shiraishi Chiren looked at Kurose Izumi with a troubled expression, sighed helplessly, and continued, "Isn't she afraid that you'll bring people back? Isn't she just walking into a trap by waiting for you there alone?"

"It seems so..."

Upon hearing this, Kurose Izumi thought about it carefully and found it to be reasonable.

He was just too afraid of "Kushiki Touko" for a moment.

There was no way around it; that Li Xunhuan's flying dagger technique was clearly the result of practice.

If she's there with a few knives, waiting for the two of them, he'll definitely back down.

"Come on, don't be afraid, I'm here. Even though I'm a woman, I've learned some self-defense techniques."

"Shiraishi-kun, you're underestimating me. If there's any danger, you should run first, and I'll stay here."

No matter what, Kurose Izumi would never let Shiraishi Chiren protect him, otherwise wouldn't that make him look like a coward?

Although he is a cautious person, he will never fail when it comes to doing things properly!

After leaving Shiraishi Chiren's house, the two walked side by side on the Omotesando in Waseda, heading towards Tsurumaki-cho.

Throughout the journey, Kurose Izumi's mood remained neither up nor down.

He wanted "Kushiki Touko" to be there, yet he didn't want her to be there either.

If we're there, maybe we can catch her and have a good talk with her.

But who knows, "Kushiki Touko" might not listen to them and might resist fiercely, leading to some unexpected events.

This complex feeling didn't dissipate until I returned home safely.

The entryway door was closed, but it could be pushed open by pushing it inwards.

There was no one inside, nothing was there, and nothing was missing.

Kurose Izumi nervously entered the bedroom and was shocked to see her cell phone on the coffee table in the center!

He picked up his phone, and the screen displayed the phone number that had called on the day the machete was sent to him.

This number sent several messages in succession.

Kurose Izumi flipped through the messages, her expression somewhat complicated.

26. Message sent by "Kushiki Fuyuko"

"April 11, 5:47 PM: Teacher Yongheng, you lied to me, you betrayed me."

"April 11, 5:48 PM: Okay, fine, you ran away then. I saw the person who saved you on the living room security camera. Wasn't their name Shiraishi Chirei?"

"April 11, 5:55 PM: I will find you again. I look forward to our next meeting."

"April 11, 8:37 PM: You went to that woman's house? I saw it."

"April 12, 0:05: Teacher Yongheng, I really want to cook for you, give you a massage, and watch you sleep and write diligently."

"April 12, 6:15 AM: Good morning, Teacher Yongheng."

Looking at the six messages sent by "Kuchiki Touko" on her phone, Kurose Izumi felt a chill.

He could understand that there was a camera in the living room, and he could also understand that "Kushiki Touko" recognized Shiraishi Chiren, but he just couldn't understand how she knew that he had gone to Shiraishi Chiren's house!

And she said she saw it, what does that mean?

Did she install a surveillance camera on herself?

That's impossible.

Kurose Izumi's hands trembled, her thin, pale lips pressed tightly together, her heart filled with fear.

This wasn't because she was afraid of being kidnapped or imprisoned again, but because she was afraid that Shiraishi Chire would be implicated.

"Kuchiki Touko" needs him to change the ending, so she won't do anything to him.

But what about Shiraishi Chiren?

She saved herself; her very existence was a thorn in the side of "Kuchiki Touko"!

"Kurose-kun, are you alright? You look terrible."

Suddenly, Kurose Izumi heard a slightly worried voice asking in her ear, and her thoughts were abruptly interrupted.

He stiffly turned his head, looked at Shiraishi Chizuru's worried face, forced an awkward smile, and said:

"It's nothing, I just feel a little dizzy. Don't worry about me."

"Are you really okay? If anything is wrong, just tell me and I can ask the teacher for leave for you so you can get some rest."

"It's really okay, don't worry. I'm not a child, I won't force myself."

Shiraishi Chiren silently studied his face for a long while before sighing softly, "I'm sorry, I saw it all, the messages on your phone."

"Actually, you didn't need to hide it from me. I have nothing to be afraid of. We live in a society governed by law. She wouldn't dare to do anything."

"Even if she dares, I'll subdue her and take her to the police station!"

She spoke these words with sincerity and determination.

It seems like I have a feeling that I will definitely protect you, Kurose Izumi.

This touched Izumi Kurose deeply, but also made her feel guilty.

She had already caused enough trouble for Shiraishi Chiren, yet now she was being comforted by her.

"Shiraishi-kun, if anything happens, I'll say it again: you run first, I'll stay behind and hold them off!"

"Kurose-kun!" Shiraishi Chiren's tone was puzzled, as if she didn't understand why he was bothering her with this.

“I can’t watch something happen to you. I would feel so guilty and unable to forgive myself.”

"I'm fine with whatever I am, but you can't get hurt because of me. After all, I'm a man, aren't I?"

"Please give me some dignity. I will protect you, Shiraishi-kun. Please believe me, okay?"

After Kurose Izumi finished speaking, he smiled.

The unease that had been lingering in his heart dissipated with each word he spoke, transforming into unwavering conviction!

If bloodshed were to occur, even at the risk of injury or being stabbed, he would protect Shiraishi Chiren and let her escape first!

"Kurose-kun, you..." Shiraishi Chiren covered her mouth with one hand, her eyes widening slightly, seemingly not expecting him to say that.

After a while, she nodded gently and said softly, "Okay, I believe you, Kurose-kun."

"Yes, I will definitely protect you."

Kurose Izumi nodded in agreement, her smile becoming increasingly gentle and natural.

Afterwards, Shiraishi Chiren left the bedroom, leaving him space to change into his school uniform.

Only then did Kurose Izumi realize how outrageous her words were.

He started talking about 'protection,' 'trust,' and 'men' without even saying anything else...

Isn't this just too shameful?!

"Aaaaaah...!"

As she thought about it, Kurose Izumi pounced on her bed, rolling around in shame, until she twisted into a maggot!

After a while, he calmed down, took off his shirt and jeans, and changed into his school uniform.

Kurose Izumi looked back at the shirt on the bed and remembered how she felt when she first wore it yesterday.

At that time, he felt ashamed and self-conscious, and he didn't even dare to breathe!

Because with every breath, you can smell a faint, pleasant fragrance.
