Karuizawa Kei's expression stiffened slightly, and she felt as though her heart had stopped.
She knew that the "giving-herself-away plan" she had been plotting for so long would, in all likelihood, once again die halfway through.
Actually, when she had first learned that Ayanokoji had disappeared, Karuizawa had wanted to sound Horikita Suzune out.
But when she saw Horikita Suzune somehow looking as though she had entered post-nut clarity, dazed and blank at the news...
Karuizawa immediately realized that this was her perfect opportunity!
After all, Ayanokoji's disappearance was bound to give everyone ideas.

The girl's eyes curved into crescents, but her tone brimmed with
