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.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq2ySE3B19
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9xqNo9wM6
"Aoi!" Ryuu called out, his voice echoing in the smoke-filled space.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoHdbs3jfy
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA7gCc3rt9
There was no answer. The room was empty, except for a single desk overturned in the corner, its contents scattered across the floor.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCEHpRdPHq
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJzYgHc4lp
"She's not here," Fuuma said, his voice strained.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvlk1sdGhS
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wPgxSPd0x
"Where could she have gone?" Ryuu asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNISEEEXzxc
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoKoUderoM
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.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwnkrDCHQY
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHQQQMyCbz
It was a note, written in Aoi's neat handwriting. "I'm going to the library," it read. "Meet me there in 30 minutes."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeoQyPyYvX
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0u0NnzNmE
"The library?" Ryuu said, his voice filled with confusion. "Why would she go to the library?"306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oI8OvcmWK
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2ckXbYeSP
Fuuma shrugged. "I don't know, but we need to find her."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxQu0L22zY
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6WiH3OnX3
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?306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9Q9QtHYpw
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY57hUGBxQ
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.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGmlDh39NH
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYLdQeZdQk
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.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tYiGUHavO
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jTUWEG2KH
"Aoi," he whispered, his voice barely audible above the hushed murmur of the library.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUtOXv3hSh
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgndQhfaFWN
Aoi looked up, her eyes widening in surprise. "Ryuu! Fuuma! What are you doing here?"306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy7o3f7pgr
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxxgYphSgG
"We were looking for you," Ryuu said, his voice filled with relief. "We thought you were still in the classroom."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRB1IMxtuj
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lY048QZBc
"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."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHXL6fER9D
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1Dd5QDHQz
"But why did you go to the library?" Fuuma asked, his curiosity piqued.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXph3sGcHk
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbaVZkDlCY
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."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNNmXsjNzx
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3BAyghABj
"The French Revolution?" Ryuu said, his eyes widening in disbelief. "That's the same thing Mr. Tanaka was talking about in class!"306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Y1UId6Ick
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUoqvNLh4K
Aoi nodded. "Yes, it is."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVFqWFWu8g
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZOYd5Hl9T
"But you're the class president," Ryuu said. "You don't need to do extra work."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzBsLKXogp
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDyua1q7bZ
"I like to be prepared," Aoi said, her voice firm. "And besides, I find the French Revolution quite fascinating."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8lFZukv1I
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITvEgHX4Td
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.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxuanLRBa4
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2awd3VZZ4
"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."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWdTclLmMm
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5HOqN6M4t
Aoi smiled. "Thanks," she said. "Now, why don't you guys come sit with me? I could use some help with this research."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkwsBvzk1f
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6Uz2mCy96
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.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFj5rI679g
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1keJ7CyFtP
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.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWdOKhT0DZ
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm7OHDytL0
"I never knew you were so smart, Aoi," he said, his voice filled with awe.306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1UqHjVqBd
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFU2sFxJdx8
Aoi blushed, a shy smile playing on her lips. "I try," she said. "But I'm not always as serious as I seem."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4S3m9JvxsW
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfKh7jruvN
Ryuu chuckled. "I know," he said. "You're just hiding your true personality."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PXkUsZcir
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbCfprTPuR
Aoi laughed, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Maybe," she said. "But I'm glad you guys are starting to see the real me."306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGk4qocvR1
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2WQjyliKL
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.
