My deskmate is actually my yandere reader.

Suddenly, a deeply moving statement came from behind them.

Upon hearing this, Inari Yuki immediately reacted like a startled rabbit, her little hand trembling, and she unconsciously pressed down on the ice pack she was holding.

"hiss……!!!"

As expected, Izumi Kurose experienced another sharp pain.

"Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to!"

"……fine."

"Hmph, what about youth..."

Half an hour later, the ice pack melted, and Kurose Izumi stood up, got out of bed, and took a few steps.

After finding that there was nothing seriously wrong, Shiina Hiru gave some instructions on how to reduce the swelling, and then the two left the infirmary.

Just then, the clock struck midnight as he was leaving.

"Goodbye."

So the two said goodbye and headed to their respective classes.

45. "Kuchiki Touko" launches another night raid.

After school in the afternoon, on the cherry blossom slope outside Mingsheng High School.

"...So, that's how it is."

Kurose Izumi explained in detail why she skipped the first class in the afternoon.

Beside him was Shiraishi Chiren, carrying her schoolbag in both hands, her steps and demeanor elegant and graceful.

After listening quietly, she said softly, "I'm sorry that Kurose-kun has suffered this undeserved misfortune."

"It's nothing, it was just an accident." Kurose Izumi shook her head and smiled.

Shiraishi Chiren turned her head and asked with concern, "Does your head still hurt? There aren't any ice packs at the new house, are there? Do you want to come to my house first, and I'll put one on for you?"

"No, no need! I can buy some myself later." Kurose Izumi quickly waved her hand in refusal.

He was afraid that if he went, he might never come back!

Maybe things will turn from applying an ice pack to staying for dinner, then being asked to play games, and naturally playing too late, so you end up going to bed!

After all, tomorrow is Saturday, a day off, so we can have a good time.

Actually, he was just overthinking it.

Shiraishi Chiren simply wanted to take care of him and didn't want him to stay overnight.

She already had a plan for tonight, but it didn't include having Kurose Izumi stay overnight.

Otherwise, Shiraishi Chiren would have made him stay no matter what.

"Yes, take care of yourself." Shiraishi Chiren nodded gently, then suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Before they knew it, the two had walked across the cherry blossom slope and arrived at a fork in the road.

This means they will part ways here.

Kurose Izumi seemed to understand what she meant, so she stopped walking as well.

He turned his head and looked at Shiraishi Chiren, who was quietly gazing ahead, her beautiful hair gently ruffled by the breeze. He moved his thin lips, as if he wanted to say something.

But in the end, all those words can be summed up in one short sentence:

Goodbye, Shiraishi-kun. You too, remember to take care of yourself.

"Okay, goodbye."

At the fork in the cherry blossom slope, amidst the falling cherry blossoms, the two waved goodbye.

Then, they went in opposite directions, each going their own way.

A lingering sense of melancholy at parting hung in their hearts.

My mind is filled with memories of the few days we spent together.

Go home together, cook, eat, wash dishes, do homework, play games, sleep in the same room, and when you wake up in the morning, the first thing you see is each other's face. Then you say good morning to each other and go out together to welcome a new day.

These memories, like a fleeting glimpse or a recollection on a record, played out scene by scene.

Recalling these memories, Izumi Kurose unknowingly walked to Shinjuku Station and bought a ticket to Chiyoda Ward.

As he stepped into the tram car, he glanced back and saw the empty platform, which intensified his sense of parting.

Having grown accustomed to warmth and comfort, the sudden departure is honestly a bit disorienting.

Kurose Izumi smiled helplessly and looked away.

The next moment, the doors closed, the train sped off, carrying him away from Shinjuku.

……

Back at her new home in Jimbocho, Izumi Kurose took out her room key and swiped it on the LCD detector at the front door, and the door opened automatically.

"disturb……"

"……I'm back."

A spacious living room, brand-new high-end furniture, and a warm yellow-toned decor...

All of this felt foreign to him.

After sitting quietly for a while to calm herself down, Kurose Izumi got up and went out to have a casual dinner.

When I returned, it was already 7 p.m.

At this moment, the tranquil night descends, enveloping Jimbocho.

Kurose Izumi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, gazing at the brightly lit and neon-lit skyscrapers in the distance, and suddenly felt a sense of loneliness again.

If this were at Shiraishi Chiren's house, it would be time to wash the dishes together after dinner, right?

Or, after washing the dishes, sit down together to rest for a while, chat for a bit, and then take a shower?

Or...

'Why think so much? It's over...'

Kurose Izumi suddenly shook her head, interrupting her thoughts, and turned to walk towards the master bedroom.

He turned on the warm yellow light, sat down at his computer desk, and turned on the computer that was already connected to the internet.

At the same time, he took out his phone and sent a message to "Kushiki Touko":

"I will give you the ending you want, please don't cause trouble for Shiraishi."

This was the first time in the past few days that Kurose Izumi had sent a message to "Kuchiki Touko".

In the past, he would read messages but not reply, ignoring them completely.

But now, he has to take action, otherwise Shiraishi Chiren may face retaliation!

The message was read within minutes of being sent, but there was no reply.

Seeing this, Kurose Izumi stopped sending messages and instead focused on rewriting the ending.

He wanted to finish writing it as soon as possible and then send it to "Kuchiki Touko" to end this entanglement and bond.

What Kurose Izumi didn't know was that "Kuchiki Touko's" target had changed from the ending to him!

It was midnight in Waseda Ward, in front of an apartment building in Toyama Park.

The bright white streetlights illuminated the deserted streets, which were quiet all around, without a single car or pedestrian in sight!

But the next moment, a person dressed in black, wearing a baseball cap and a mask, suddenly appeared on the surveillance camera placed at the intersection.

"Kushiki Touko" strolled slowly toward the apartment not far away, passing through areas that could be seen by surveillance cameras along the way.

A few minutes later, she arrived at the apartment building, walked straight in through the door, and stepped lightly up the stairs.

pat, pat.

The sound was very soft, but extremely rhythmic, neither too fast nor too slow.

Upon reaching the fifth floor, "Kushiki Touko" paused and turned to the left corner.

She arrived at room 502, where the door number was accompanied by the words "Bai Shi".

In a corner of the ceiling above her head, a surveillance camera was flashing a faint red light.

"Kushiki Touko" first took out a pair of gloves from the pocket of her black coat and put them on, then took out a wire and inserted it into the keyhole of the door.

Click, click.

A slight, crisp sound echoed intermittently in the empty, quiet corridor, like the ticking of a clock at midnight.

Click.

With a final, sharp click, the lock was pried open!

"Kushiki Fuyuko" grasped the handle, turned it gently, and then gently pulled it outwards to create a gap.

She stepped sideways and entered through the door.

But when half of his body was inside, he suddenly stopped.

The next moment, she turned her head, looked at the camera in the corner above her head, and raised her slender eyebrows slightly.

Click.

The door was closed.

Thud, thud, thud—!

Within a minute, a series of loud crashing sounds echoed throughout the room.
