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.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMIvdRVjJn
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡry9twbmFSq
"Aoi!" Ryuu called out, his voice echoing in the smoke-filled space.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMCaN7DyqK
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFI0n9BVvly
There was no answer. The room was empty, except for a single desk overturned in the corner, its contents scattered across the floor.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMDGeGbcQd
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN3wAg8Gk3
"She's not here," Fuuma said, his voice strained.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYm2xZV2Tax
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd84oP4Ndv4
"Where could she have gone?" Ryuu asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvzLbuiGyT
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaq7ZnzrmK9
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.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotPSAMnCub
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55lYxYpcgc
It was a note, written in Aoi's neat handwriting. "I'm going to the library," it read. "Meet me there in 30 minutes."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvc8yq7OvLf
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHy1bkk9kkw
"The library?" Ryuu said, his voice filled with confusion. "Why would she go to the library?"184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKAc5dMmwk
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QUfBv6IR9
Fuuma shrugged. "I don't know, but we need to find her."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAfsSyfZQi
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOVfoCRZiu
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?184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtSWlVFWC7
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3CFctwFyM
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.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPe5CFD95dN
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCRt24N8fn
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.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKKdZWHULf
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWIZHLE3N4
"Aoi," he whispered, his voice barely audible above the hushed murmur of the library.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyUKcU5jFm
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSw8pUAsFB
Aoi looked up, her eyes widening in surprise. "Ryuu! Fuuma! What are you doing here?"184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDg1iLh3Jl
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSO5xaqwFSG
"We were looking for you," Ryuu said, his voice filled with relief. "We thought you were still in the classroom."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt2KNTyF2X
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2TU4mPeoD
"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."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqYiEipr6U
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZCMQGdhAf
"But why did you go to the library?" Fuuma asked, his curiosity piqued.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcod2iimF7L
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqTE5cZuY1
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."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6FnfpnTOf
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ARZ7UQIdf
"The French Revolution?" Ryuu said, his eyes widening in disbelief. "That's the same thing Mr. Tanaka was talking about in class!"184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5k7Js2WZMt
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGTxH2ZGGf
Aoi nodded. "Yes, it is."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi2AnmOO2F
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Gs6zpNI3y
"But you're the class president," Ryuu said. "You don't need to do extra work."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYEUXczZE9
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKTFp5SRy1
"I like to be prepared," Aoi said, her voice firm. "And besides, I find the French Revolution quite fascinating."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ElQDktjSY
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZyn3vAqWI
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.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XBF6Au9Dn
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4O0GGxGVS
"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."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUo40lK6y6
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH8L9BEzmU
Aoi smiled. "Thanks," she said. "Now, why don't you guys come sit with me? I could use some help with this research."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ69T4QIbv
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5w5hGSA7X
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.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoh8i5BKAeg
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuexD7KKHzz
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.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bpSpKo9hH
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQXPTPZKLz
"I never knew you were so smart, Aoi," he said, his voice filled with awe.184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuccszkuu2a
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSL52Uv7gL
Aoi blushed, a shy smile playing on her lips. "I try," she said. "But I'm not always as serious as I seem."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRyf5u9bWR
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SInoLHrgH
Ryuu chuckled. "I know," he said. "You're just hiding your true personality."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7JJxAaDhQ
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMKITA5gmG
Aoi laughed, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Maybe," she said. "But I'm glad you guys are starting to see the real me."184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1c6hnR5oB
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeaN5oCiPe
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.
