Towards Shiori's remark, I acted completely unconcerned.
As an aspiring young man, lust is a man's nature.
However, Origami Tobiichi, behind , was now staring intently at . Although this was only their second eting, she felt a strange sense of familiarity...
Therefore, until school let out at noon, Origami Tobiichi ticulously observed my every move.
After I finished lunch, Origami Tobiichi approached , her expression blank.
"Hibari-kun, could you co with to a place where no one is around? I have sothing I want to talk to you about."
Hearing this, I was slightly surprised but still nodded in agreent.
Then, I followed Origami, walking out of the classroom under Shiori's strange gaze and the envious stares of a group of single guys.
———
A few minutes later...
I stared blankly at the won's restroom sign, then slowly turned my head to look at Origami Tobiichi, my voice tinged with disbelief. "Th-This... This is what you ant by 'a place where no one is around'?"
Origami nodded, her face calm as she said, "Yes. At this ti, there won't be anyone in the won's restroom. Even if you do sothing to , no one will know."
"..."
With that, she directly pushed into a restroom stall and locked the door.
'Holy crap! As expected of Origami-sensei—Her thought process is sothing else.'
After I regained my composure, I asked curiously, "Origami, why are you so sure I'd do sothing to you?"
To this, Origami Tobiichi retorted, "In a place where no one is around, don't you have any thoughts about a pretty girl like ?"
As Origami Tobiichi spoke, her hands were busy, seemingly slowly removing sothing.
"Uh~ I do have so thoughts..." I admitted, feeling a little tempted, my imagination running wild.
Suddenly, while I was fantasizing, Origami had already balled up the white item she had removed and was about to stuff it directly into my mouth.
"Wait! Origami, what are you doing?!" I was completely bewildered by Origami's perverse action.
After reacting, I quickly stopped her—
"What am I doing? I heard your conversation with Itsuka-san. I thought you quite liked panties??" Origami Tobiichi showed no hint of shyness, instead looking puzzled by my refusal.
Hearing Origami's explanation, my face twitched, rendered speechless by her.
——
After a mont, I took a deep breath and slowly spoke. "Let's put that aside for now, Origami. Can you tell now why you brought here and what you wanted to talk about?"
Imdiately, Origami Tobiichi stared intently into my eyes, her tone serious. "I want to know... have we t before?"
Hearing this question, I was quite puzzled, unsure why Origami would ask such a thing, but I still answered seriously. "Probably not. This is likely our second eting. Why do you ask, Origami?"
Hearing this, Origami's expressionless little face responded with utmost seriousness. "I don't know why, but I always feel like we've t before. I have a sense of déjà vu about you."
'Déjà vu?'
Regarding Origami's explanation, I couldn't help but feel sowhat confused.
'I know you quite well, but why would Origami say she has a sense of familiarity with !?'
'Could it be...'
Suddenly, a guess ford in my mind. If it was what I thought, then it would explain why Origami felt this sense of familiarity.
"Hibari-kun, can you tell ... why did you help Princess?" Just as I was deep in thought, Origami Tobiichi had reverted to her usual calm, expressionless deanor.
Origami's renewed questioning interrupted my thoughts.
And I directly stated my intentions. "Honestly, I just want Spirits to integrate into Human society and live peacefully. Spirits are inherently pure by nature, aren't they??"
Origami, however, lowered her head slightly and directly refuted, "That's impossible. As long as Spirits exist, they will bring endless disaster to humanity."
"Why do you say that? It's not the Spirits themselves who bring disaster to humanity, but the power that accompanies them. As long as Spirits can control their power, they are no different from humans!" I attempted to change Origami Tobiichi's thinking.
Hearing this, Origami Tobiichi suddenly beca agitated. "Your thinking is completely wrong! Spirits are evil! My parents died because of them—"
"And... do you think the Spirit "Nightmare" can also beco a normal human? Do you know she has killed nearly ten thousand people!!" Origami Tobiichi beca more and more agitated as she spoke, her eyes even turning red.
'It seems the death of her parents when she was young left a deep scar of hatred.'
Listening to Origami Tobiichi's words, I remained silent.
'I can't very well tell her now that she's a Spirit too, and that she killed her parents herself when she traveled back in ti, can I?'
'If I really said that, never mind whether Origami would believe it—if she knew the truth, a ntal breakdown would be unavoidable.'
'As for Kurumi, she was tricked by Mio Takamiya into killing her best friend, falling into deep hatred. Killing people to seize their ti—this was sothing Kurumi didn't want to do, but had to—'
'However, although it's confird that Kurumi personally killed ten thousand humans, most of them were actually misbehaving individuals, like a certain group of lecherous delinquents.'
'If I want her to let go of her hatred, the best way is to directly kill the Original Spirit or resurrect her best friend, Sawa Yamauchi.'
———
I looked at the agitated Origami Tobiichi, my tone serious. "If your parents were resurrected in the future, could you accept living peacefully with Spirits?!"
To make Origami Tobiichi completely let go of her hatred, the simplest way was to solve the problem at its source—resurrect her parents.
Whether she believed it or not, it was best to coax her first.
"Resurrected?!" Origami's eyes instantly lit up, but then dimd again as she whispered, "How!"
"What if I actually manage to do it?" I said, gently coaxing her.
Hearing this, Origami slowly raised her head, eting my serious gaze for a long ti.
A while later, Origami finally said, "If you can really do it, I can promise you I won't target Spirits anymore."
"Good! Then it's a deal!" Hearing her words, I imdiately laughed, then wanted to high-five Origami Tobiichi to seal the deal.
However, as soon as I extended my hand, I saw the white panties Origami Tobiichi had removed. I said sowhat awkwardly, "Origami, your....."
Origami directly interrupted him. "If Kyoya-kun likes them, then they're yours. I still have shorts anyway."
"...."
Saying this, she prepared to leave the restroom and return to the classroom.
Looking at the still-warm white fabric in my hand, for a mont, I was left alone in the restroom, utterly bewildered.
