Chapter 292

Ichinose Honami and Kushida Kikyo are clearly superior to her. Kamuro Masumi and Ibuki Mio have a cold and arrogant temperament with a desire to conquer. Sakayanagi Arisu petite and delicate, Shiina Hiyori and easy-going, and even Horikita Suzune has a good-looking face. Sakura Airi, who was once her classmate, is even more stunning.

The only person she could clearly defeat was Shiranami Chihiro.

However, Shiranami Chihiro is Asakusa Toru's official girlfriend in name only.

It was precisely because she clearly felt a long-lost sense of inferiority that she occupied the dressing table, hoping to achieve a better appearance through makeup.

... He didn't seem to care about makeup.

It was as if he didn't care at all about the scar on his leg.

However, for her, who has survived as a sexy woman to this day, makeup is her weapon, and clothing is her rule.

Temporary path dependence.

He will regain consciousness in a moment.

But after becoming more clear-headed, one's confusion and bewilderment only increase.

Karuizawa Kei knew very well that she didn't really understand Asakusa Toru; she was merely dependent on him, she was merely attached to him.

Because he was the brightest light that cleared away the shadow in his heart.

It doesn't mean she has to parasitize Asakusa Toru.

Yes, she did gain a lot of influence and status through her close relationship with Asakusa Toru.

But she already held a respectable position among the sexy girls.

Even when Asakusa Toru announced his intention to drop out of school, she didn't think about stopping him.

Karuizawa Kei understood very well that she could not influence or interfere with Asakusa Toru's decision.

Her identity will never change from beginning to end.

"..." The girl raised her hand and gently grasped the collar around her neck.

The cold, metallic texture gave her a sense of security.

As long as it's worn around the neck, the connection between oneself and it will last forever.

Even though it seems that those few people have other, more special connections with Che.

But all I need is this.

The room fell silent.

The air is tranquil, but the atmosphere can appear drastically different to different people.

Identity, stance, and the ability to perceive all influence the perception of so-called 'air'.

Those who don't fit in will clearly sense that they are different from the small groups around them, and the small groups can also clearly sense that the hostile party is not welcoming them.

Although the girls in this room cannot be simply described as a small group.

But it is undeniable that...

She, Shiranami Chihiro, was naturally on the same side as Ichinose Honami.

Whether it's vying for favor or something else.

But that's the kind of companion they are.

Yet it seems... she shares a unique, unspoken understanding with the others, unlike her own.

Although she was jokingly called the mascot by her classmates, Shiranami Chihiro was, in essence, just an ordinary girl.

You will feel obvious emotional changes, notice small details, and be able to recognize subtle changes in attitude.

Therefore, changes in the air quality inside the room were quite noticeable to her.

The division between different people, and the changes between different actions.

And, it's something that everyone understands implicitly.

Quiet.

Should I sit here?

Should she, like Horikita Suzune and Shiina Hiyori, move closer to Toru?

"..." Just as the girl was slightly bewildered, Ichinose Honami placed her hand on her shoulder and gently shook her head at her.

She said to her very softly, "Just enjoy the time we spend together."

Is that so...?

Shiranami Chihiro didn't understand.

But she will do it.

"Call..."

Breathe, breathe, take a deep breath.

The scent of Asakusa Toru lingers on the pillow; Asakusa Toru- present in the room.

Sakura Airi isn't very bright.

But she would suppress her emotions.

Endure.

Endure.

After patience, one can find contentment.

The 'Temperance Necklace' that Kushida Kikyo lent her lay on the fat on her chest, faintly glowing pink.

Overflowing with restraint.

It will take effect at the time she expects.

She, physically weak yet unable to stop wanting more, could receive the more love she craved.

Asakusa Toru didn't pay attention to the girls' thoughts. He couldn't read minds, and even if he could, the voices of ten people would be too noisy.

He doesn't need to hear what's on his mind.

Seeing action is enough.

The ink in my hand is stained with the first stroke that I hesitated to make, and my thoughts are sorting out the traces of the past year.

Finally, Asakusa Toru started moving his hands.

I've been wondering for a long time: did I choose vocational school, or did vocational school choose me?

It was me who chose vocational school.

This is a diary.

I thought about it carefully for a long time and considered it thoroughly.

In the end, I still feel that my Advanced Nurturing diary must end with such an opening.

This is my beginning.

I can let it be my end.

I have mixed feelings about this school, Advanced Nurturing.

I used to envy the students at this school.

Putting aside the messy stuff like the competition for Special Exam, you can enjoy a lot in Advanced Nurturing.

Cute girls, beautiful young women, tuition waivers, a large sum of money given upon the start of the semester, and a free summer cruise.

Although I have criticized Special Exam in every way this year, if such Special Exam had really existed back then...

I might have a lot of fun.

But that was back then.

For ordinary students, even if scenarios like the school being attacked by an unknown organization and them awakening special powers to fight the enemy at a crucial moment don't happen, they would still be extremely happy if Special Exam that they can have a lot of fun appeared.

There's no way to go back.

Therefore, I was unable to truly enjoy all the Special Exam.

That being said, I actually quite enjoy being on Uninhabited Island.

The highest peak in Advanced Nurturing is the Uninhabited Island.

Vulnerabilities are vulnerabilities, fun is fun, and achievements are achievements.

Everyone can show their most ferocious side on the Uninhabited Island; everyone can display their unique style and demeanor on the Uninhabited Island.

If all else fails, you can always surrender and return to the cruise ship to enjoy your vacation.

From freedom to competitiveness, Uninhabited Island are excellent.

Even though it might seem like unfair and asymmetrical competition to some students, I see it as a pretty good show.

I deeply love the Uninhabited Island.

Perhaps that's why, after the Uninhabited Island ended, I was no longer able to enjoy the Special Exam.

... Perhaps it's for that reason, or perhaps it's simply because I don't actually expect any Special Exam.

Those dreams are now just a thing of the past.

I.

I...

I've tried many times to open up my own heart in my diary.

Analyze your own psychology, interpret your own thoughts, and clarify your own problems.

I don't know if it's useful or not, but this level of self-expression does give me a certain degree of satisfaction.

Considering today is a special day, I'll keep the riddles to a minimum.

This diary entry probably won't be very interesting.

Because I find it really hard to get my emotions going and share my thoughts with everyone in a very emotional way, to bring them joy.

In contrast, I feel it's necessary to set a tone for this diary entry.

Looking back, we learn from our mistakes and look forward to the future.

In the past, my diary was full of emotions—emotional content, emotional expressions, and emotional writing.

This is not a bad thing.

A diary is inherently an expression of emotion.

If the writing is too bland, it loses the flavor that a diary should have.

In the past, I randomly picked and chose, recklessly revealing the lives of many people.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing.

I will reveal everyone's future, and I will forcibly turn the page and confront the past that everyone is unwilling to look back on.

Our present moment can both erase the shadows of the past and help us avoid an unpleasant future.

Spoilers are a good thing.

To some extent, I've always wanted to hear spoilers about my future.

I can accept both good and bad; neither will significantly affect my decision-making.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to hear any spoilers, so I can only regretfully reveal a little bit about your situation to everyone.

Although I say this is a good thing, that is a good thing, it sounds like I'm saying that as long as it's in my diary, there are no bad things.

This is indeed true.

However, the lessons learned still exist.

A diary, a diary entry for each day, is the most fundamental and original meaning of a diary.

Therefore, at the very beginning, I was very persistent in this, and kept writing daily records.

Write down your emotions and record your changes.
