But being adept at reading the air, she immediately sensed that Karuizawa Kei seemed to have something more private to say to Su Wei.

So, she wisely operated the watch a few times.

"Thank you so much! I'll go practice over there now! I won't disturb you!"

Now that the first step has been achieved, we can gradually work on how to build a closer relationship later.

Anyway, she still didn't believe that her social skills, which she was so proud of, wouldn't be able to win over a high school boy!

She couldn't believe she was so unlucky as to be randomly selected twice in a row by the black ball to become an intruder!

I watched Kushida disappear.

Su Wei then turned to look at Karuizawa Megumi and Horikita Suzune, who were still standing there.

"There are no outsiders here now."

Su Wei crossed his arms and said, "Now you can tell me, what are you two up to all this secretive stuff?"

Karuizawa Kei pursed her lips slightly and turned to look at Horikita Suzune.

Seeing her like a frightened quail, not only did she bury her head very low, but even her ears turned completely red, she was completely unlike her usual aloof queen demeanor.

Karuizawa Kei gritted her teeth, steeled herself, and tilted her head back to look directly into Su Wei's eyes:

“Student Su Wei…”

"You told me that the future has become meaningless in this world, and the only thing we can truly grasp is the 'present'... right?"

The girl's voice trembled, but she didn't stop talking.

"So, so that I won't have any regrets when I suddenly die someday."

"Can...can I like you, Suwei?"

This statement came out.

Su Wei was not the only one who was taken aback.

Even Horikita Suzune, who was already extremely embarrassed and angry, suddenly widened her phoenix eyes, her face full of disbelief.

What happened to the promise of just a subtle hint?!

Why did you just blurt out your feelings like that?!

Ignoring Horikita's shock, Karuizawa Megumi simply clutched her skirt tightly and continued:

"Because I don't know exactly when I'll die in the exam room..."

"So, could you... please let me keep a place in your heart that belongs to me?"

"I'm not greedy. I don't need any promises from you... I just need a quiet corner to let me know that you cared about me, that's enough..."

Looking at the girl's almost humble plea.

Su Wei scratched his head in slight distress:

"This... doesn't sound like a confession."

"To me, it sounds more like you're indulging in 'live for the moment' under pressure, which carries a sense of self-abandonment."

Karuizawa Kei stubbornly shook her head and retorted:

"Wasn't it you, Su Weijun, who taught me to be brave and be myself?"

"The black sphere said that it would let us go after it gave us the power to protect this world."

"But who knows where this so-called 'boundary' actually lies?"

The girl smiled bitterly:

"Now that we can even traverse world dimensions... I really don't believe that an ordinary person like me could be lucky enough to keep going until the day I finally beat the game..."

Seeing that Karuizawa Kei had put it this way...

Horikita Suzune, who had been silently pretending to be dead, finally couldn't help but sigh.

She picked up the conversation:

"Actually, Karuizawa and I didn't abandon a girl's sense of shame, but... right now, we really can only choose to believe in 'the present'."

Horikita Suzune tilted her head back, her delicate and beautiful face devoid of its usual aloofness, leaving only genuine vulnerability and longing:

"At least, before death truly arrives... we want to grasp at some certain happiness, to leave some tangible evidence that we existed in this world."

"So that when death truly arrives, we won't be left with nothing but regret when we close our eyes."

She looked directly into Suwei's eyes:

"I finally understood this point after you pointed it out to me."
