Thursday, noon.
Ignoring the tense atmosphere in the top floor Student Council of the high school freshman department for a moment, the mood in the upperclassmen's section, particularly in second-year Class A, was rather harmonious.
"Ye, what elective did you choose for Thursday afternoons? I think I didn't see you going to class on Tuesday."
The girl previously referred to as "Yumiko" opened her lunch box and asked Ye Shiyu, who was sitting at her desk.
Today, Ye Shiyu had tied up her hair with an accessory, wearing an early spring white knitted sweater, a beige mid-length skirt, and white socks.
Like the first clearing of spring snow, she radiated a clear beauty.
Ye Shiyu looked at Yumiko and simply replied,
"...Handicrafts."
"Oh, Yumiko, I think the handicrafts teacher asked them to buy materials on Tuesday, that's why they didn't have class."
Next to Yumiko, there was another girl named "Ai Jia," Yumiko's close friend.
