Early that morning, Eichi felt something soft beside him through the haze of sleep.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Joltik. He had no idea why it had crawled onto his bed last night.

As usual, Eichi entered the classroom.
"Good morning, Class Rep," Xiao Ye came over and greeted him.
"Mm, good morning."
"Good
