September 22, Friday.
The early autumn breeze carried a slight chill, and the soft sunlight sprinkled at the school gate as students whispered quietly.
Aozawa clutched his backpack and stepped through the gates of Brilliant High School.
Furusawa Kyoichiro, who was checking student attire at the entrance, spoke up, "Aozawa, are you okay?"
Yesterday's news had reached Furusawa Kyoichiro's ears.
Even though he wasn't particularly interested in those things, if he stayed in the classroom or walked through the corridors, he would always hear students talking about those matters.
After all, when the most conspicuous girl in the class disappears, it's only natural to stir up discussions among classmates, especially after that news piece emerged. They didn't recognize Aozawa, but they could identify based on the way Takahashi and others dressed.
A mosaic couldn't block their ability to recognize a classmate.
