A crossover anime, where people are in Classroom of the Imaginary Era, and behind the scenes, the ki

Hiyori Shiina answered in a soft voice:

"We... only found out about this news after seeing the notification that Su Wei posted in the group, so we rushed over."

"The notification sent in the group?"

Upon hearing this answer, Honami Ichinose frowned deeply.

She quickly pulled out her phone, rapidly scrolled through the several large group chats where everyone usually interacted, and asked with some confusion:

"But I didn't see this message in any of the group chats I'm in..."

Su Wei stood to the side, scratching his head as he saw this.

Seeing that the truth could no longer be concealed, he decided not to hide it any longer and explained frankly:

"Oh, I see."

"Because the list of people who will attend these three classes this afternoon was only finalized recently. I noticed that Ryuen and Sakayanagi were both busy with their own things, so I didn't tag everyone in the group chat."

"I just casually sent the message to a small group, thinking that I would ask those few people who were free to come and take a look. Actually, the effect would be the same."

"They... a small group?"

Honami Ichinose murmured those two words in a daze.

Immediately, as if suddenly realizing something, the girl abruptly raised her head.

Her clear blue eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at Su Wei with a serious expression.

"Senior... what you called a small group..."

She asked, enunciating each word clearly:

Did I add it?

For a moment, the atmosphere in front of the bulletin board became somewhat awkward.

Nanase Tsubasa tilted her snow-white neck slightly.

A pair of large eyes darted back and forth between Suwei and Ichinose.

As a newcomer, she had no idea what had happened or what complex emotional entanglements lay behind it all.

Asuka Shiraishi and Suzune Horikita, however, vaguely realized what the "small group" that Ichinose had mentioned was all about.

Unfortunately, neither Shiraishi Asuka, who sees through things but doesn't say it, nor Horikita Suzune, with her aloof and awkward personality,

Neither of them are the type to step in and smooth things over or explain things for others unless absolutely necessary.

Clearly, in their view...

The current chaotic situation is far from being at a point where their intervention is "unnecessary."

That is, the kind-hearted little angel Hiyori, seeing this scene, slightly opened her cherry-like mouth.

Hesitating in his throat, he wondered whether he should muster the courage to explain something on Su Wei's behalf and ease Ichinose's emotions.

However, Hiyori Shiina was worried that she was clumsy with words and might say the wrong thing, which would completely anger Ichinose, who was only jealous at first, and make things worse.

Fortunately.

As the instigator of all this.

Su Wei did not feign death and run away at this critical moment.

As Ichinose finished speaking, his gaze froze slightly in mid-air, and he pondered silently for a moment.

Then, as if suddenly realizing something, he slapped his forehead:

"It seems... they really didn't include you."

Hearing this affirmative answer.

Honami Ichinose immediately puffed out her pink cheeks like a pufferfish that had suffered a great injustice.

She unusually abandoned her obedient demeanor and scolded him playfully:

"This group chat is from when you, senpai, and I went on a 'date' at the amusement park together..."

"Because other girls at school are concerned about your safety, and you find it too troublesome to reply to them one by one, you simply created a group chat to save time..."

As she spoke, Ichinose seemed to realize that she had spoken too quickly due to her emotional excitement and might have inadvertently let slip some suggestive words.

For example, "dating".

In order to avoid being noticed by the girls eavesdropping nearby.

Honami Ichinose abruptly cut off her words, then adopted a pitiful, tearful expression, and began to complain:

"No matter what, I'm your comrade-in-arms who has faced life and death with you many times..."

"So, I don't even have the right to participate in your private little group?"

Listening to Ichinose's sour tone, it was as if he had "I'm jealous" written all over his face.

Su Wei glanced almost imperceptibly at the person beside him.

When Horikita Suzune heard the words "amusement park date," she was clearly surprised by the amount of information, and a ripple passed through her cool eyes.
