The Witch Trial Begins with the OO Buckethead Zombie

As long as Hoshino is pulled away, he won't die.

Hoshino was never going to die.

She was doing something pointless.

Why do I have to kill Hoshino again?

As long as Hero doesn't understand this, everything he does is meaningless.

Hiro pulled Hoshino away, and Emma quickly followed.

One reason was to help Hoshino change her clothes, and the other was that her own clothes were still on Hoshino.

Where will they go?

Shower room.

The answer couldn't be simpler.

Yuki Tsukishiro would never allow them to go to the shower room alone for an intimate changing session.

This is when sparks are most likely to fly.

Not sure if she remembered the direction of the shower room wrong, Hiro pushed open the door she had come from.

But that's perfect. If they go that way, they'll have to go around in circles, which gives us a chance to get closer.

So, after pushing open the door to the reception room, Tsukishiro hid in the storage area.

Yes, it's the corner where Hoshino hid last time.

He was hiding here, spying.

I also hid here and kept watch.

Huhuhu......

By the way, she doesn't actually need to be too nervous.

After all, Emma followed along too.

Even if Hiro were to lose his mind and try to assault Hoshino, Emma would stop him.

In fact, she had already heard Emmanuelle's questioning voice coming from the shower.

Well done, Emma! That's it! Go! Go bite Hero!

Yoshi yoshi yoshi—

Ah, they were both kicked out.

That's how it should be. Hoshino is still very distant and won't easily allow these two female hooligans to watch him change clothes inside.

But wouldn't it be better if I actually hid in the shower?

Heero and Emma can't watch it, but I definitely can.

but.

Emma, ​​yes, I'm talking to you! Don't steal from me, keep an eye on Hero, and don't peek through the door!

Hero, you need to control this brat! He's getting more and more unruly.

I stared at the shower door for a short while, and then the door opened.

Hoshino, having changed his clothes, appeared before her with an absolutely stunning new look.

Yuki Tsukishiro was somewhat stunned.

She wore the same clothes, but she had prepared many, many sets of identical new clothes.

However, there is one slight difference.

There was something on his head.

It was something she had seen but hadn't paid much attention to, something familiar but hadn't really realized.

A distinctive headdress.

An iron bucket.

Hang it on your head, wear it on your head.

To put it bluntly, he doesn't match Hoshino at all.

A crooked iron bucket, with a strange shape.

Hoshino had to repeatedly hold onto the metal bucket, which was on the verge of slipping, and keep all his attention on it.

But even so.

Just looking at her, Yukishiro had very different thoughts in her mind.

If there's anything particularly special about her memories with Hoshino...

The word that Yuki Tsukishiro would blurt out would definitely be 'watering'.

On the day they first met, a bucket of ice-cold water was poured over her, soaking her body.

It was very memorable.

Especially when the bucket of water gradually became not only falling on her head, but also being placed in her hands and then poured over his head.

From that moment on, watering became something even more special in the witch's mind.

However, watering is one thing, but there's definitely more than one special thing happening.

If there's anything special about it besides watering...

That's an iron bucket.

It's a very common, ordinary iron bucket used to hold water, which can be seen everywhere in schools.

There's nothing special about just an iron bucket, and nothing special about any decorative object on its head.

However, wearing the iron bucket itself makes it easy for the witch to locate his presence.

After all, if you were to ask who around her liked wearing metal buckets, Yukishiro couldn't think of anyone other than herself.

She, Yuki Tsukishiro, is a barrel zombie.

Its defense is really high.

Although she initially wore the metal bucket on her head because of the bullying she had instigated, she didn't actually dislike the feeling of wearing it in the days that followed.

He would sometimes wear an iron bucket when he appeared in front of Hoshino.

Therefore, it can almost be said that when talking about iron buckets, it should be Yuki Tsukishiro.

That's why, when Hoshino Utsunomiya walked out with the iron bucket on his head...

The witch was in a daze once again.

Watering, shower room, iron bucket.

He was thinking of me.

That's the only answer we can get.

Watering is good, the metal bucket is good, missing me is good.

All of this proves that he still loves me.

Although this is something that no longer needs to be said, it still makes people happy.

but......

Happy, happy...

Why did Emma suddenly run away crying?

What did they say?

Tsukishiro Yuki is somewhat puzzling.

She had barely come to her senses when she saw Emma running away, wiping away her tears.

Crying and screaming, she grabbed her coat and ran away.

It startled her.

Yuki Tsukishiro almost thought she had been discovered.

Fortunately, she hid it very well.

Relieved, Yuki Tsukishiro had thought that Hoshino and Hiro would be in a hurry to catch up.

Unexpectedly, their pace was neither hurried nor slow.

Side by side, whispered words.

Because the distance had closed and because she had come to her senses, Yukitsuki Tsukishiro heard it very clearly.

Hoshino was talking about Emma's problem.

...Hoshino knew it after all.

Emma's attachment to him.

Hoshino seemed to have a good idea; he thought the problem would naturally be solved after Emma went on to higher education.

But Yuki knew, and based on her understanding of Emma, ​​she was certain that she knew.

The insatiable Emma will never let go.

Hoshino understood Emma's attachment to him, which is why he tolerated her attempts to get closer to him.

However, it is clear that Emma's crying and running away just now were because her excessive probing was rejected.

Yuki Tsukishiro gradually came to understand everything.

If that's the case, then there's no problem.

They probably went over to comfort Emma, ​​but while they could offer comfort, Hoshino would definitely not let Emma cross the line again.

Yuki Tsukishiro felt somewhat at ease.

She watched their figures disappear behind the door, but didn't follow them.
