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.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTAUGbEYu6
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuUKdlCgde
"Aoi!" Ryuu called out, his voice echoing in the smoke-filled space.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdIZwrl1kT
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDP9tGnZnXh
There was no answer. The room was empty, except for a single desk overturned in the corner, its contents scattered across the floor.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0m2wFB0Co
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe5Uuc5xLY
"She's not here," Fuuma said, his voice strained.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwYdr266VV
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83fTYicth6
"Where could she have gone?" Ryuu asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecCFelZ43P
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwftrwcdAf
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.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNYQy0rN1U
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlFxm6tULV
It was a note, written in Aoi's neat handwriting. "I'm going to the library," it read. "Meet me there in 30 minutes."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TLJKD6mjv
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRuS0vuYyR
"The library?" Ryuu said, his voice filled with confusion. "Why would she go to the library?"185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0qwmUUF1A
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgCzfIcTtM
Fuuma shrugged. "I don't know, but we need to find her."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNne17FMJ4q
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3h9sKt9dX
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?185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3l6WTwGkC
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpm0BKVHnd9
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.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LTZFteF57
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaImgBVF7Tg
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.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3SsdKK5lq
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUqhqbhAsl
"Aoi," he whispered, his voice barely audible above the hushed murmur of the library.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVNphuLY3k
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRheYYOOtP
Aoi looked up, her eyes widening in surprise. "Ryuu! Fuuma! What are you doing here?"185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBlPu31C8J
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVjw7iRuJZ
"We were looking for you," Ryuu said, his voice filled with relief. "We thought you were still in the classroom."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDUAhsKslZ
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAhKRGo1jv
"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."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt69ASY39h3
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC58iPwcI0E
"But why did you go to the library?" Fuuma asked, his curiosity piqued.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuGo7FQ3Qs
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDiks4x1vv
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."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHLBDn47zR
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN4f3Z7GyD
"The French Revolution?" Ryuu said, his eyes widening in disbelief. "That's the same thing Mr. Tanaka was talking about in class!"185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YSF3zfADd
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ohlc1RY2Y
Aoi nodded. "Yes, it is."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFooBe2tay
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpSxdbH8jy
"But you're the class president," Ryuu said. "You don't need to do extra work."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEawzTcpll
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vlNJoVaAp
"I like to be prepared," Aoi said, her voice firm. "And besides, I find the French Revolution quite fascinating."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWUnso1Vkc
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QKvJAm081
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.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcZqiKkuQF
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MUVFJiCHF
"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."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dy1ktiiqh
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcnR5FEaaq
Aoi smiled. "Thanks," she said. "Now, why don't you guys come sit with me? I could use some help with this research."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8W0bZ8e3Nm
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunfSjhlUQn
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.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOF7fg0BC1I
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4mC5KYrzm
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.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClWdeFBokh
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSUHbpyEAz
"I never knew you were so smart, Aoi," he said, his voice filled with awe.185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczAx3gBxX6
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsMSqMwBjN
Aoi blushed, a shy smile playing on her lips. "I try," she said. "But I'm not always as serious as I seem."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOeLiGEIxY
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEAMfHRqZD
Ryuu chuckled. "I know," he said. "You're just hiding your true personality."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGbaRGN1Re
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhJHCFNdJh
Aoi laughed, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Maybe," she said. "But I'm glad you guys are starting to see the real me."185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c9pYER6r2
185Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM92Irm6ita
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.
