Uesugi Tetsu silently stared at Kujo Machi, whose calf kept trembling uncontrollably.
--Was she scared?
Uesugi Tetsu looked around, but he found no third presence in the classroom besides Chisa and Kujo Machi.
How strange...
Although he thought that, Uesugi Tetsu had already told Chisa not to move or speak recklessly.
When something was wrong, doing less usually meant making fewer mistakes.
Kujo Machi flipped through the brand-new Japanese textbook in her hands for who knew how many times.
Out of the corner of her eye, she watched Chisa "daydreaming" in place and the eye-covered fleshball above her head, which had already shifted its gaze away. Gradually, she began to feel that Chisa might not have been lying to her.
Perhaps this middle-school girl named Chisa also possessed yin-yang eyes that allowed her to see those inhuman things.
It was just that she could see far fewer "things" than Kujo Machi and was nowhere near her level.
Those truly terrifying entities, whose mere existence would make a person wet themselves if observed... She couldn't see even the slightest trace of them!
Even so, joy and a sense of belonging still rose in Kujo Machi's heart at finally finding someone like herself.
But besides that, she was also afraid that Chisa would recklessly say something like "You can see them too," as she had before—words that were practically indistinguishable from borrowing a knife to kill someone.
"At least... she's the first stranger I've never met before who doesn't seem highly dangerous or aggressive. She doesn't look like an impostor, either, and she even survived in this bizarre classroom..."
Later, she would have to ask this Chisa what had happened in the classroom just now, and why none of the students or teachers had been seen for so long, only to die
