Chapter 5

"You're possessed, aren't you?" Ryu placed a glass of water next to Ami's lunch box that had been losing focus for a long time.

 "Huh?" answered Ami as she tilted her head to one side. The girl held back the air inside her mouth until her cheeks looked swollen. Ami looked Ryu up with raised eyebrow and then breathed long before again lost in her mind.

 Ryu only shrugs his shoulders indifferently as the girl's behavior had become all too familiar, after that, Ryu grabbed a piece of sashimi using his chopsticks to place on the Ami's spoon that floated over her bowl and contained only a few grains of rice.

(Sashimi: Japanese seafood raw)

"You think you're pretty when you're quiet? You're just gonna make people scared." Ryu pushed Ami's forehead through with the chopsticks in his grip and then bowed back to his focus on his own food. The man paid no attention to Ami wiping her red forehead with speechless cursing.

 "Eat!" Ryu hisses with his eyes bulging from the feeling that Ami had been silent for so long.

Ami hit the top of Ryu's head with her spoon. "Ryu-kun," she whispered suddenly.

"What?" Ryu raised his head and stared idlessly at the little girl in front of him.

"Do I really seem like a child at this age?" Ami held each side of her cheek using her palms. His face seemed increasingly haggard and gloomy, before grimacing and knocking his forehead against the edge of the table at the sight of Ryu's persistent response from the finish.

Ami had forgotten that Ryu was a insolent man who had badmouthed her, so she shouldn't have told that to that bastard Ryu in the first place.

Judging by the desperate act of the girl in front of him, Ryu glared for a moment and then gulped down his water while rubbing the top of Ami's head that still continued to hit him.

 "What is it with this little girl, hm? Why are you suddenly asking me that question?" asked Ryu casually leaning his back against the armchair in the empty headmistress's office. The handsome man with glasses then noticed Qmi, who was now also sitting in her seat. "Normally you wouldn't respond to what others would say about you," Ryu continued before turning to the door at the sight of someone who had just entered the room with his index finger placed on his lip.

"What's wrong?" said Uncle Kai silently. The old man then nodded slightly as Ryu shook his hand no wanted to be disturbed. Uncle Kai only shrugged his shoulders indifferently then walked over to one of the sofa at the end of the room and opened the newspaper he was carrying.

"She out of her medicine," whispered Ryu silently looking at Uncle Kwi who again glanced curiously at him.

Ami who had long noticed the behavior of the two big men now supported her chin slothful. "You're out of medicine?" Her couches came as she rolled both lazy eyeballs.

Ryu straightened up his seat and then dodges in a restrained tone, "Like hell. You think myself is you?" There was a amused smile on Ryu's lips' smile when he came back to his teasing tone, "you're the only one who needs your medicine here because you're the only one who's insane."

Uncle Kai teamed up with the unimportant debate, still drowning his face in the pages of the newspaper that the man was reading seriously.

Whereas, Ami only shrugged her shoulders. Afterward she started to stand with the palms of her hands clasped in her skirt and walked out of the room without turning back again. Just as Ami was about to step up the stairs to her classroom, she suddenly stopped her legs in surprise at the sound of a girl behind her.

"Where do you think you're going? Don't even think about wandering around here, new student."

Ami slowly turned her back with a smile she had as sweet as she could, after which she bowed expressively and made the class of 3 girls stare at her angrily.

"Senpai… this bell is already ringing and I am a student who doesn't like to be late," Ami said while smiling down at the crowd who began to approach her when she was still standing.

(Senpai: a word to greet big brothers and sisters at school)

 "Who do you think you are, huh? How dare you be so rude to your senior! You shameless girl!" One of the girls who might have been the leader of the group stepped forward, her arms haughtily crossed in front of her body.

Another girl in the group joined the conversation, "We are your seniors, so next time you should put the seniors first when walking anywhere."

Ami herself remained where she was, even though she had been awash with this deadly gaze from all around her.

After they had only one rung left, Ami with a smile of mocking her seniors, stepped down until they stood face to face, closer to the girl she thought was the leader.

Ami whispered menacingly. "Oh, Akihiro Keinarra senpai." Ami nodded briefly at the sign in front of her, after which she repeated "don't think I'm the type of girl who would be afraid of your seniority." Ami squeaked then set her face back at a more normal distance.

After another cruel grin, Ami turned her back and walked away without turning back again.

"I'll make you regret daring to challenge me!" Keinarra clenched his hand firmly beside her body, gazing angrily at the back of Ami's head. Silently hoping that Ami's head had a hole in her eye.

At the top of the stairs, Ami stopped walking along the ladder and she is shouting without turning back: "don't be too long, I'm the one who doesn't like to wait too long."

Ami then went back and forth after waving her hand derisively. She seemed utterly indifferent to the angry curse of keinarra behind her back. "Just wait. You'll be begging me for mercy later on."

After walking briskly down the school corridor toward her class, Ami opened the door carefully and bowed her body to a school teacher who was writing something on the board. The girl then set her foot on her own chair.

The class atmosphere seemed so calm that Ami suddenly had a mischievous idea. She slightly spun herself backward to hit Haru in the back of his sleeping head. Ami's punch were quite harsh and managed to make Haru grimmer and grumble, while Ami herself had gone back to the board and pretended to pay attention to the lesson ahead.

Ami looked to the right when she sensed that she had just touched her right shoulder but had found no one. But she was about to look back, turning his head and finding Haru's dejection on her left shoulder.

"Do not disturb me, little girl," Haru hisses between his clenched teeth and then goes back to sleep at his place after snapping our forehead with his index finger.

Ami suddenly remembered something immediately tore off the paper in her book and wrote something and put it on Haru's head that looked at her annoyingly. The man's head was still limp on the table.

You know that don't you? About the case of the girl who died on the roof of the school.

Haru raised his eyebrows before raising his head as soon as he finished reading Ami's writing without making a sound. He turned the paper over and then wrote something on the back.

NOPE and I never had any interest in finding out.

Ami growled in anger, then afterward turning the paper to write something under Haru's handwriting. She then gave him up quietly to Haru who is just waiting silently for her.

Ami wrote, Come on. You must know something.

While Haru responds, What will you give me if I tell you something?

I'll treat you, write Ami in return.

Haru, you don't think I can buy myself a round, huh? Offer me something else.

Ami, I'll think about it, but let me have a little information, okay?

 Haru, deal.

Ami secretly observed Haru's writing that looked so neat for a man. Afterward Ami only shrugged her shoulders disconcerted and indifferent to the handsome, clean-haired boy sitting behind him with that strange look.

As soon as the bell signs the period is back up, Haru, who had been staring out the window at the moment immediately turned his head toward the front.

"Tell me!" said Ami, turning her back after the teacher had left, followed by the other students who had also gone out. She looked expectantly at Haru, she pressed up her chin with the palms of her fists.

Haru breathed a quick sigh and followed Ami's pose, with the chin that followed with his palms.

"As far as I'm concerned, the dead girl used to be in the same fraternity together in a different sense or could be referred to as the errand girl for the group." Haru didn't take his eyes off qmi's soft green eyes and look at her seriously," and also ... I'll tell you when school's over," Haru mumbled with a mocking smile.

The man then began to walk toward the threshold, but suddenly Haru's step came to a halt when he heard Ami shouting loudly.

"The dead girl… what's her name?"

Haru looked around the classroom before answering in a low voice almost like a soft whisper that made Ami shiver instantly.

"Her name is… Akihiro Minami."

At that moment, Ami simply froze in place. Right now her head is working hard trying to connect to some of the facts she's found all day.

"Akihiro? Akihiro Keinarra… Akihiro Minami. What's their relationship?" Ami murmured on herself. She's thinking, and she grew more and more curious as the first words crossed his mind.

 'As far as I know, the dead girl used to be in the same fraternity together in a different way or as the errand boy.'

"What really happened to Akihiro Minami? Not even a single authority knows her identity." Ami stroked her temples gently. Raising her head up suddenly, Ami clutched her tongue upset. "and why can her identity be hidden so well? Not even a portrait of her exists," Amk said while resentfully ruffling the hair.
