Book 15: Chapter 1: Intro - Secret Maneuvers
The pouring rain had gotten stronger and the fog, thicker.
It was hard to hear or see anything due to the weather, but I could feel an ominous presence approaching us from behind.
There was a deliberate, almost exaggerated sound of mud being trampled underfoot and strewn into the air.
It seemed that Nanase had immediately noticed it as well.
Looking over my shoulder, I caught sight of a student who had come to an abrupt stop behind me, her red hair swaying in the wind.
“Seems it’s gonna really start coming down, huh Sen~pai?”
It was none other than Class 1-A’s Amasawa Ichika, standing there in the rain.
While it had long-since been established that she had the same table as Nanase and I, this was by no means a mere coincidence.
There weren’t any other students nearby, and she didn’t have a backpack or tablet either.
