He tried hard to recall the name of the boy who always followed the girl around and looked quite cool.
"Wow, what a coincidence, classmate Wu Yi, you're here too!"
I didn't expect Wu Yi to appear here. Ichinose Honami couldn't help but reveal a happy smile. At the same time, he subconsciously looked behind him. After confirming that there was no little tail following him, he came to his senses and realized that the former had just asked him a question. He quickly waved his hands and said.
"Oh, if it's Kanzaki-san, we'll act separately. I'll come to the gymnasium over here, and Kanzaki-san will stay over there in the shopping mall."
"That's it..."
Wu Yi nodded in understanding.
Although I don’t know what kind of project Ichinose’s class has prepared, since the word “stay” is used, I guess the rental venue will be in a shopping mall.
In this way, one of the two class leaders stays in the base camp to scout the enemy situation and manage his own class, while the other goes out to act as a scout and wander around.
"Oh, oh, since we meet here by chance, shall we go in together?"
As she spoke, Ichinose Honami took Wu Yi's hand without paying attention to the looks from others, as if she didn't want him to escape.
Emmmm, although he had no intention of escaping.
"Okay, then let's go in together later." Wu Yi said.
"Hehe~"
After getting a positive answer, the girl's face immediately blossomed into a picturesque smile. She shook Wu Yi's arm in a naive and joyful manner, as if she was a little fox who had stolen a chicken.
At the same time, as time passed, the line shortened, and the voices of the third grade A class students explaining the rules through a loudspeaker came from the front.
"It is forbidden to use mobile phones inside. They must be set to silent or vibrate mode. It is forbidden to chat loudly inside. Do not stay inside meaninglessly. Try not to touch the props with your hands..."
As the rules were read out one by one, Wu Yi and Ichinose Honami came to the entrance hand in hand.
The student in Class A who was in charge of gatekeeping seemed to sense a familiar sense of oppression approaching. He raised his head and took a look, and his expression immediately became strange.
Wu Yi also nodded at him as if to say hello.
Now the third grader's expression became even stranger.
"...That senior just now seemed to be very afraid of you?"
When they entered the gymnasium that was decorated like a maze, Ichinose Honami came closer and covered her mouth with her hands, lowering her voice and speaking softly.
"It's okay." Wu Yi smiled.
Ichinose didn't know much about it because he didn't meet him during the whole uninhabited island exam during the summer vacation, but at least to those former Nanyun faction members who are now in the third year, he is much scarier than that haunted house.
"Well, this corridor is a bit narrow..."
As they went deeper into the maze, Ichinose Honami grumbled a little.
Indeed, in order to make the route as intricate as possible, more walls have to be added, which eventually makes the corridors extremely narrow. This is a common problem in many indoor mazes, and in order to create a depressing and spooky atmosphere, this degree of narrowness is also necessary.
But this was very bad for Ichinose who was planning to walk side by side with Wu Yi.
The road is designed to be so narrow, how can we walk hand in hand together!
"Or maybe you, Fujinose, would walk behind and I'd lead the way?" Wu Yi suggested.
"Ah, no need... uh, that's fine."
Ichinose refused instinctively, but after a little thought, he came up with an idea and agreed.
She leaned sideways to stand behind Wu Yi, then approached carefully, put one hand on Wu Yi's shoulder, supported Wu Yi's waist with the other hand, and carefully poked her head out from behind the other shoulder.
"that's it."
"Well, let's go then."
The two of them continued to move forward in the maze in this strange posture, like a young couple exploring a haunted cave.
They came to a staircase, and just as Wu Yi reminded them and was about to step down, a voice that sounded more funny than eerie but extremely familiar came from the corner ahead.
"Uooooohh ...
However, something unexpected happened. The sound that was originally imitating the sound of a ghost appearing suddenly became high-pitched and loud due to panic.
Puff, puff.
The female ghost appeared.
The ghost girl fell down.
Volume 455: Chapter This room is not soundproof
Female ghost...yes, it is indeed a female ghost.
But she is a very cute female ghost.
Long straight brown hair, a snow-girl-like kimono, the same hair accessory as Yuyuko on the forehead, and the familiar sunflower hairpin.
In fact, Wu Yi had already recognized the identity of the visitor when he heard the voice, but he really didn't expect that the haunted house staff who should be most familiar with the terrain of the venue would accidentally trip himself while going up the stairs because he was not used to the style of kimono.
It's just... pretty magical.
"Hmm~ Wow, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much!"
Sitting down heavily on the steps, Asahina, dressed in a female ghost costume, immediately covered her calves and groaned with her teeth bared.
Seeing that the pain didn't seem to be fake, Wu Yi immediately stepped forward and squatted to check.
"Senior, are you okay? Where does it hurt?"
"There must be something wrong, it's all your fault..."
After slapping Wu Yi in annoyance, Asahina put on the mask of pain again.
"Ankle, help me check my ankle."
"Let me see……"
He reached out and gently lifted the hem of the kimono without touching the skin near the injured area, exposing the girl's slender white calves to the air.
At this time, Wu Yi noticed that Asahina was actually wearing a pair of wooden clogs.
Well, I'm not used to the restrictive style of kimono, and you insist on wearing wooden clogs to walk up the stairs. You're really something...
Thinking of this, just as Wu Yi was about to take out his cell phone from his pocket to illuminate the room for a clearer view, a bright light shone down from above his head.
It’s Ichinose Honami.
Realizing that this uh...unknown senior student was injured, she immediately took out her cell phone and turned on the flashlight function to illuminate Wu Yi.
"Is this way possible?"
"Yeah, just right."
Before he could say thank you, Wu Yi's eyes narrowed slightly.
Under the slightly pale light of the cell phone flash, he could clearly see that the skin at Asahina's ankles was stained a light pink, and when his fingertips touched it, there was obvious swelling under the skin.
There are signs of swelling right after I fell. The injury is serious. I hope it’s not a fracture…
If it was his own bone, Wu Yi would just feel it to see if it was broken, but if the same method was used on Asahina, it would probably cause her to die of pain.
Without hesitation, Wu Yi picked up the girl from the ground in a princess hug.
"Anyway, let's go to the infirmary first."
"I am coming too!"
As if afraid of being left behind, Ichinose Honami immediately put away her phone and prepared to return the same way she came.
Wu Yi was slightly stunned.
"Of course. Otherwise, do you think I would say something like 'I'm going to take my senior to the infirmary, Ichinose, you can play by yourself first'?"
"Ah... yes."
Ichinose Honami smiled knowingly when she heard that, and quickly followed.
The two had been in the maze for less than two minutes and were not far from the entrance.
A moment later, when the students in Class 3-A who were responsible for letting people in orderly at the entrance found that someone suddenly walked out of the haunted house maze entrance, which was supposed to be a one-way entrance, and was holding a staff member of their own class in his arms, the situation suddenly became awkward.
"Hey! Bring back Asahina-san from our class!"
The students in Class 3-A really wanted to get up and chase after him, but they couldn't leave their work without permission. They could only watch Wu Yi walk away with his senior in his arms, with Ichinose Honami jogging behind him.
The view changes to the infirmary.
The school doctor in a white coat with a stethoscope hanging on his chest sat behind his desk, looking at the freshly-cut X-ray in his hand with a heavy expression that was typical of senior doctors in big hospitals, as if they were about to go through a cold and were about to be buried.
"Well, Asahina Nazasa, your injury isn't that serious, it's just a sprain and dislocation. After it's reset and you apply some swelling-reducing medicine, you'll be able to walk normally again within two weeks."
Two weeks, well, it can still catch up with the cultural festival, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
Wu Yi thought.
"But from the look on your face, the school doctor, it looks like my tibia has been broken into three pieces..."
Asahina's good mentality allowed her to make jokes and say bad things even in this state.
The school doctor was more nonchalant.
"If it's broken into three sections, it's going to be more troublesome. We'll have to put your broken leg in traction first. Tie a weight to it and hang it up. We can then do the surgery after the swelling subsides. We'll put steel nails and plates in there. At your age, we'll have to do another surgery to remove the implant after a year."
"It sounds like it hurts..."
Asahina imagined it for a moment, and then shuddered slightly.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, let's straighten the bones first."
As the school doctor spoke, he opened the drawer, took out a pair of disposable medical gloves, and began to put them on.
Asahina originally wanted to lift her legs by herself, but after trying it she found it was not working, so she tried using her hands and feet, but it still didn't work. She turned her gaze to Wu Yi who was standing beside her and rolled her eyes coquettishly.
"help me."
"it is good."
Wu Yi said this as he bent down to support her calves.
"Don't take advantage of me to tickle my feet, okay?" Asahina added cautiously.
"Of course not. How could I do such a thing..."
Wu Yi's words just made the girl show a little satisfaction, and the next second, he suddenly exerted force with his right hand.
Gada!
There was a slight sound, and Asahina's expression changed drastically, but before he could put on the mask of pain, it immediately turned into surprise.
"Huh? It doesn't hurt anymore?"
As she spoke, she slightly moved her toes, which had been stiff and painful and she dared not move them. After confirming that the pain was gone, she increased the range of motion again... and then she moved some of the muscles in her ankle that were still red and swollen.
Well, it still hurts.
"...It's quite accurate."
The school doctor, who had only put on half of his gloves, stopped and glanced.
"In that case, you just need to bandage it and rest for a while. I will issue you a certificate later. You can go back to the dormitory to rest. If you want to rest here, there is a bed next door. But remember that the wall here is not soundproof."
The walls are not soundproof, which is a subtle hint.
"I understand." Asahina said.
Five minutes later, in the room next to the infirmary, a young girl with her ankles bandaged tightly like a dumpling was lying on the hospital bed.
Wu Yi and Ichinose Honami each moved a chair and sat beside the bed.
"So, Senior, why do you insist on wearing clogs when you're not used to them? Just wear sneakers. It's so dark in the haunted house anyway, no one will really stare at you."
"In order to restore it to the maximum extent possible!"
Asahina pouted and argued.
"Besides, I was always very steady when I was practicing before, and I never fell."
"And then he sprained his ankle during the trial operation?" Wu Yi glanced at him.
"Then... it's all because of you!"
"because I?"
Asahina was not convinced: "Yes, I should have come out when I heard the footsteps some distance away. Then I heard you talking over there, so I thought about shrinking back first, and then jumping out to scare you when I got closer. But the hem of my kimono was too narrow, and my outstretched foot and the retracted foot got stuck, and then..."
