The classroom was filled with smoke and the acrid smell of burning paper. Ryuu and Fuuma cautiously made their way inside, their eyes scanning the room for any sign of Aoi.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoJIFRBsO5
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4wh581ttO
"Aoi!" Ryuu called out, his voice echoing in the smoke-filled space.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpVL31tr6T
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYhT7vs9RF
There was no answer. The room was empty, except for a single desk overturned in the corner, its contents scattered across the floor.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L5cIJwiDS
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7FnyM1EuT
"She's not here," Fuuma said, his voice strained.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cCjsufAwy
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBgJ1bjRqb
"Where could she have gone?" Ryuu asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9kszxidGw
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JRoLdFeWu
Suddenly, they noticed a small, crumpled piece of paper lying on the floor near the overturned desk. Ryuu picked it up and unfolded it, his eyes widening in surprise.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cOcVrc7kU
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtw1EjTosBZ
It was a note, written in Aoi's neat handwriting. "I'm going to the library," it read. "Meet me there in 30 minutes."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh76jEbQcYa
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKF7FWK13q5
"The library?" Ryuu said, his voice filled with confusion. "Why would she go to the library?"187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLrZJ9v5ji
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Os8vPoWKI
Fuuma shrugged. "I don't know, but we need to find her."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWufQHTYji
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszDZGDh2s7
They rushed out of the classroom and headed towards the library, their hearts filled with a mixture of relief and curiosity. What was Aoi doing at the library? And why had she left them a note?187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7iZDfuaIV
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxB2wAJOClm
As they entered the library, they were greeted by a scene of quiet order and concentration. Students were scattered throughout the room, their heads bent over books, their faces illuminated by the soft glow of reading lamps.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ykR5AgP4a
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcs9QgBAGC
Ryuu scanned the room, his eyes searching for Aoi. He spotted her sitting at a table in the back corner, her head buried in a thick volume. He approached her cautiously, his footsteps silent on the carpeted floor.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs7rFHEkvx
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lMuaNcYr3
"Aoi," he whispered, his voice barely audible above the hushed murmur of the library.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWknsWRp5K
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgIvtNLP04
Aoi looked up, her eyes widening in surprise. "Ryuu! Fuuma! What are you doing here?"187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyGzZqZFMA
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxCXkpYgAe
"We were looking for you," Ryuu said, his voice filled with relief. "We thought you were still in the classroom."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vWCrPB6AA
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75FKZNCfSC
"I left a note," Aoi said, pointing to the crumpled piece of paper on the table. "I didn't want to wait for the fire alarm to go off."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xWQA1D6Vh
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNA30C2faa
"But why did you go to the library?" Fuuma asked, his curiosity piqued.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDxtMErIwj
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbR312wPY0e
Aoi hesitated for a moment, then sighed. "I needed to do some research for a project," she said. "I'm working on a presentation about the French Revolution."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLc1MKkyryC
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfT4hvJR9g
"The French Revolution?" Ryuu said, his eyes widening in disbelief. "That's the same thing Mr. Tanaka was talking about in class!"187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡki8lwyfCVP
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaM9bpscnLt
Aoi nodded. "Yes, it is."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Eqovuh7pv
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUYQU5khmL
"But you're the class president," Ryuu said. "You don't need to do extra work."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaFkME8O7o
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScY3GjBPjO
"I like to be prepared," Aoi said, her voice firm. "And besides, I find the French Revolution quite fascinating."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY83IuIvUc7
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXq6jPCwpO
Ryuu and Fuuma exchanged a look, their faces filled with a mixture of admiration and confusion. They had never seen Aoi so passionate about anything before.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGvNB3Zfmc
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoC4fLIirgW
"Well, we're glad you're safe," Fuuma said, his voice laced with relief. "And we're impressed that you're so dedicated to your studies."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFq6pL9qd5
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxOIJJ5q6v
Aoi smiled. "Thanks," she said. "Now, why don't you guys come sit with me? I could use some help with this research."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GBUAEHiid
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlijZiPjpD
Ryuu and Fuuma hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement. They spent the next hour poring over books with Aoi, learning about the French Revolution and discovering a new side to their friend.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vkjlrrcGs
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSxrfTO9fZ
As they left the library, Ryuu couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and admiration for Aoi. She was more than just the class president; she was a brilliant, passionate, and surprisingly interesting person.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq3rk1iFCz
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4cccvIr7P
"I never knew you were so smart, Aoi," he said, his voice filled with awe.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8vJj57rl0
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5C4x0ihaI
Aoi blushed, a shy smile playing on her lips. "I try," she said. "But I'm not always as serious as I seem."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCOaJcaLX7
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFem7GtlUx
Ryuu chuckled. "I know," he said. "You're just hiding your true personality."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZO4BZzB1yJ
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yXnbLnHZS
Aoi laughed, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Maybe," she said. "But I'm glad you guys are starting to see the real me."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad78Iq30TU
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbbJVsVROV
As they walked back to the classroom, Ryuu couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. He had a feeling that this was just the beginning of a long and hilarious friendship with Aoi.
Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji left the library, their hearts filled with a mixture of relief and curiosity. Aoi was safe, and they had learned a new side to her personality. But the mystery of the fire alarm remained, and they couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss. The school was buzzing with whispers and rumors, and they knew that their adventure was far from over.
