In front of a traditional Japanese-style detached house, Inasa Yoarashi sat alone on the steps, propping his head up and dozing off. (35xs)

At Shiketsu High School, where Inasa Yoarashi attends, the U.A. High School Sports Festival is being held today. To help the students understand their future rivals, the Sports Festival is being broadcast live on a projector in the classroom, even though there is no holiday.

Yoarashi saw Shoto Todoroki the spotlight, his face fell. But seeing Jilan Jiyu advance time and time again, he couldn't help but feel excited. Although the Camie Utsushimi, kept muttering something like, "If this continues, my appearance rate will get lower and lower. I can't slack off anymore," he didn't pay attention and kept his eyes glued to the screen.

When he saw Jilan win his match against Shoto Todoroki, he excitedly threw a punch in the air— Jilan really did teach Endeavor's son a lesson, how reliable!

After the match, Yoarashi was worried about Jilan's mental state, so he left first and went to wait for Jilan at her doorstep. Even when he Camie Utsushimi calling him to go to the arcade to play games, he just waved his hand to indicate that he wouldn't go.

Inasa Yoarashi wanted to let Jilan see his friend as soon as possible when she was tired. Apart from going home for dinner in the evening, he spent the rest of the time sitting on the steps outside Jilan Jiyu's house, like a dog waiting for its owner to come home.

Of course, Yoarashi wouldn't neglect her physical training either. She started her usual workout in the open space in front of Jilan's house: 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and a 10-kilometer run!

Of course, the long-distance run started by circling around Jilan's house, but with his Quirk boosting his speed, he became incredibly fast, faster and faster. Passersby mistook it for a sudden tornado about to destroy the house, and immediately called over a hero patrolling the area. It took Yoarashi a long time to explain the situation. (Mirko)

This incident did not discourage Yoarashi; he remained outside Jilan's house until dawn the next day.

The sun had just risen, Yoarashi, who was dozing off with his head propped up, was suddenly awakened when his phone rang.

He initially thought it was a message from Jilan, but upon opening it, he discovered it was a message from Camie Utsushimi, consisting of two pictures.

Both photos were selfies of Camie Utsushimi. Yoarashi wasn't initially interested, but his eyes widened instantly when he saw what was in the background.

The first photo is Camie Utsushimi is standing in front of a hotel with a sign made of pink LED lights, making a peace sign. Behind her is a person with U.A. High School. uniform. Although only her back is visible, Jilan can recognize her at a glance as Jilan Jiyu!

The second photo is much simpler. It was Camie Utsushimi is standing in the same spot, making a peace sign. Behind her, Jilan Jiyu, whose faces are clearly visible, are just walking out of the hotel with their eyes slightly narrowed.

Inasa Yoarashi's mind went completely blank. What was going on? Jilan hadn't gone home last night, but instead booked a room at a hotel with Camie Utsushimi!? He'd been outmaneuvered!

Had he been betrayed? He felt a mix of emotions. Inasa Yoarashi, swaying unsteadily, walked towards his house with a thoroughly ruined expression, ignoring his mother's questions. He went upstairs, opened his bedroom door, and pounced on the bed. (Mirko)

I must be dreaming. I'll be fine after a good Inasa Yoarashi has started to escape reality.

"Hey, Utsushimi, stop taking pictures, we should go." Jilan covered her mouth and yawned, still looking a little dazed.

Jilan has always maintained healthy sleep habits, never leaving stress for the next day, and even her doctor said she was perfectly normal. However, last night she broke this habit, which disrupted Jilan biological clock and resulted in some sleep deprivation.

"Okay, I'm coming!" Camie Utsushimi put away her phone and ran up to Jilan Jiyu in a very good mood to say hello.

"Good morning! No, never mind." Camie Utsushimi seemingly struggling with something, she suddenly looked up with a smile and said, "Jilan, you were amazing last night!"

"What are you talking about? Is it because your blood sugar was too low when you woke up that you're developing Alzheimer's prematurely?" Jilan Jiyu retorted mercilessly.

"Hehe," Camie Utsushimi scratched her head, not responding. She was excited because she had secretly tormented Inasa Yoarashi, and she didn't care about Jilan's morning grumpiness.

The hotel where Jilan and her group stayed that night was not far from the bar. They arrived at the door quickly. The door was not locked, but there was no sign indicating that it was open for business.

"Let me open the door!" Camie Utsushimi stepped back and opened the door first, walking in as if she were in her own home. "Sister Hi, I'm here!"

A pretty woman with a single ponytail was impatiently wiping the barware behind the counter. Camie Utsushimi enter, she smiled with delight. "Little Camie, you've come at the right time! Help me with some chores, I'm so sleepy and want to go to bed!"

"No way!" Camie Utsushimi walked behind the bar to make herself a cup of coffee and said irritably, "Last night you probably left your work to Hitomi again and went off to fool around, didn't you? Just because she doesn't know how to refuse people, you heartless boss are exploiting Hitomi's value. Don't you know she's still a student?"

"Hitomi did it voluntarily, and besides, it's Sunday and there's no class," she muttered under her breath. Camie Utsushimi's increasingly unfriendly gaze, she helplessly raised her hands and said, "Okay, okay, it's perfect Makoto also told me not to push Hitomi to her limits, I'll give Hitomi time to rest."

Camie Utsushimi walked up to Jilan with a cup of coffee and said, "Jilan, let me introduce you. This woman is Kyoka Makoto, the older sister of Kyoka Hi. She's a ruthless businesswoman who especially likes to exploit her subordinates."

"Hey, little Camie, saying that could be considered defamation, you know?" Kyoka Hi rolled her eyes and smiled at Jilan, "I'm the owner of this shop, you can call me Sister Hi."

Before Jilan Jiyu could reply, she put down the towel she was holding, walked over and opened the door to the inner room. "You two are here to visit, right? They've already started practicing this morning. Please come in."

"Thank you." Jilan Jiyu Yu thanked her, declined Camie Utsushimi's offer of a cup of coffee, and went into the inner room.

The inner room contained only a platform large enough to stand on, with a door on each side and a downward staircase leading to the basement in front.

Jilan did not hesitate and went down the stairs.

Camie Utsushimi quickly took a couple of sips of coffee, put the cup on the shelf backstage, and followed Jilan Jiyu.

At the end of the stairs was a large iron gate, and faint music could be heard coming from inside.

The sounds of guitar, drums, and clear, bright singing.

Jilan Jiyu, and Camie Utsushimi exchanged a glance and opened the door.
