This demon is highly suspicious.

Ask questions!

What is the most important thing for high school students?

That would definitely be to study hard and strive to get into the university you want.

So, what is the purpose of taking the college entrance exam?

Ultimately, it's all about getting a good diploma, learning more, and then finding a good job.

That's true, at least for most people.

This excludes a small number of geniuses or those who are specifically aiming to pursue academic research.

The reason I say this is that those geniuses have already accomplished in their lifetime and reached things you may never be able to achieve by the time you're in college.

Perhaps this is where the world's diversity lies.

Back to topic.

If a high school student is surprised to find that they no longer need to work hard and already have a very good future.

So his primary task shifted from studying to other things.

what is it then?

That's naturally a pure and innocent love.

Some say that high school romances are the purest.

I like it, that's all. There are no other superfluous factors.

But starting in university, you gradually have to consider many other things.

In terms of academics, finances, and even where you will work after graduation.

All of these need to be considered.

Even if we disregard everything else.

You need to spend money to date, right?

Want to buy a gift? Want to go out for dinner or a movie?

We can't really chat online the whole time, can we?

Is it really possible for people to be in the same school but never meet in person and only chat on their phones every day?

Oh, except for schools under lockdown.

The topic has veered off course again; let's get back to the main point.

I'm not sure what others are thinking.

But for Rorschach, there seemed to be nothing else to do during his high school years.

That's normal; most people don't understand why they're even in high school during their first or second year.

He spends all day doing nothing but sleeping on his desk.

Rorschach is lucky to still have a girlfriend.

Miyamura Izumi, standing nearby, was in a similar situation.

His academic performance is alright. Although he has a serious problem with being unbalanced in certain subjects, it is generally acceptable.

Moreover, Miyamura's family owns a very nice dessert shop.

Business has been pretty good.

In Japan, older stores that have been open for a long time tend to have more customers.

New stores typically only attract students from nearby schools during the initial period.

Then the heat will quickly subside.

It happened even faster than when Makoto fell in love with a girl.

The question remains: does the Miyamura family's dessert shop have the potential to become one of those decades-old establishments?

"Whoo~"

He blew on the steam rising from the cup, and the thick mist immediately covered Miyamura Izumi's glasses.

My vision was completely blurred and I couldn't see anything.

He subconsciously took off his glasses and wiped them, then put the health tea in his hand aside.

"I said, Miyamura!"

Iura Hide's familiar loud voice came from behind, and Miyamura Izumi subconsciously looked up.

Just as Iura Hide was about to say something, he looked at Miyamura Izumi's delicate face, clear eyes and long eyelashes, and fell into deep thought.

Two seconds later, a panicked scream rang out.

"Miyamura! You...you!"

Trembling, Iura Hide pointed at Miyamura Izumi, his face showing a look of utter disbelief.

In Iura Hide's memory, Miyamura Izumi was the kind of person who was honest and always wore thick glasses.

He looks like a bookworm.

Although the results were not very good.

This is also very normal.

Normally, as the relationship between Izumi Miyamura and Kyoko Hori becomes closer...

Gossip and rumors will gradually increase in the class and even in the school.

After all, he was someone who looked very gloomy, like a nerd, and had no friends.

He got together with a girl who seemed very outgoing and attractive, and who had many secret admirers.

This feeling is really amazing.

Those boys who had a crush on Hori Kyoko, or even strangers, naturally started to gossip.

Normally this is the case.

But there's something very strange about Japanese schools.

It seems like they care a lot about small cliques and such.

It's normal for people who don't have their own social circles to be ostracized.

Perhaps because she was close to Luo Xia, Miyamura Izumi was naturally considered to be part of this small circle.

The same applies to Takashi Natsume.

Although there are still some rumors, at least they won't be that serious.

It won't reach Izumi Miyamura and Kyoko Hori either.

The last person who tried to commit suicide is still lying in the hospital.

Don't ask, it's all the work of the devil.

I, Rorschach, as a good student, know nothing.

I was a top student last semester.

As for which three are good?

Do not ask.

This is something that cannot be said.

"Eh eh eh?"

Seeing Iura Hide's panicked expression, Miyamura Izumi was also full of surprise.

Is it really necessary to be so surprised just because she took off her glasses?!

"The difference is too big!!"

"By the way, is that an ear piercing? Is it real?!"

After regaining his senses, Iura Hide looked at Miyamura Izumi with a look of utter disbelief.

There's no need to exaggerate like that.

Seeing Iura Hide's expression, Miyamura Izumi's eye twitched slightly.

Isn't this a bit too exaggerated?

Should I perhaps change my image a little?

Miyamura Izumi fell into deep thought.

It didn't matter if I was alone before, but now that things have progressed this far with Hori-kun...

We should at least consider Hori's feelings.

She must have felt bad being constantly told that she was walking with a gloomy and decadent person.

Izumi Miyamura is a good example of how if you truly love someone, you will also think from their perspective and consider their needs.

Instead of focusing solely on what I want to do.

"It's another peaceful day."

Luo Xia sat in his seat, sipping his health-preserving tea with a contented expression.

Take small sips and savor the bittersweet taste of the tea.

Sometimes people just suddenly find themselves in this retirement-like state.

"I'm saying you're... feeling weak?"

Gabriel's voice came through.

Turning her head, Gabriel looked at the health tea in Rorschach's cup with a puzzled expression.

Did I go a little too far?

Are demons really that weak?
