Chapter 33 Hayakawa takes the lead!

……

“What? When did you three get together?”

Aoi Natsuki was shocked, what he didn’t expect was for Sakurajima Apricot to drag Hayakawa Keiko along with Takahashi Mito to join the Exploration Club.

Isn’t this club now obsolete?

He told Sakurajima Apricot about this doubt.

Sakurajima Apricot pointed a finger at her lips, then compared the distance with her finger and narrowed her eyes, “Just a little bit oh.”

Don’t get cute at this point.

“What about you guys, why did you suddenly agree to join this weird club?” Aoi Natsuki asked.

Takahashi Midu heard the topic and gasped for a split second, like he wasn’t thinking of repeating it because it had been spit out so many times before.

It was Keiko Hayakawa next to him who told him why.

It turned out that it was Sakurajima Apricot who came to the back door of their class calling their names after class these days, adopting a deadpan tactic, and to this day Takahashi Mai couldn’t forget the image of Sakurajima Apricot already waiting for her outside with a tissue in hand when she had just come out of the restroom cubicle yesterday morning, and coupled with that bewitching smile, she still had a guilty pleasure thinking about it to this day.

So after her unremitting efforts, the two eventually agreed to join this exploration club of hers, not entering the club is often easy to be ostracized, and listening to her say that there is no hard and fast requirements for this club on weekdays, so just hang on to your name.

“Together with you, Aoi, this Exploration Society is even completely resurrected.”

“Me?”

Natsuki Aoi pointed at herself as her mind began to think.

Sakurajima, though not in a stable state, seemed to be aware that she wanted to get close to Takahashi Midu, and she was interested in trying to make it happen, and now that Hayakawa and Takahashi were both in the club, perhaps this was a good opportunity for the group to spend time together to improve their goodwill.

But would Sakurajima really mean this ……

He raised his eyes to look down at Sakurajima, while Sakurajima’s apricot raised an eyebrow at him.

Well, give her the benefit of the doubt.

“Well then, I promise to attend.”

“That’s great!” Sakurajima Apricot immediately applauded, “Then where is the next first destination for our Exploration Club?”

“This, this soon?”

“Of course! Why don’t we strike while the iron is hot, maybe go to some old abandoned school districts? Or explore some urban legends? Or maybe try the Pen Fairy, Ouija Board Fairy, or something like that on the internet!” At the mention of this, Sakurajima Apricot looked particularly excited, and said excitedly with both fists clenched.

Hiss ……

The remaining three people had sucked in a breath of cold air.

In fact, this was the reason why Aoi Natsuki didn’t dare to approach her, this girl’s mind was too eccentric, no matter if the good feeling level would change next or not, he didn’t want to have a too close distance with her.

Hayakawa Keiko’s face directly turned white, she was the most afraid of these things, and she quickly waved her hand to refuse.

Takahashi Mito had a calm face.

Aoi Natsuki took a closer look, huh? Why are your legs and stomach shaking?

Hello! So you’re scared too!

“Sakurajima, change it.”

“So, then ……”

“Be nice! Don’t scare people away on the first day of establishment.” Aoi Natsuki gave a kind warning.

Sakurajima Apricot frowned momentarily, puffing out her cheeks to look at him, which was a bit cute to see her at this point.

“Well …… that’s a shame, for the first time why don’t we all just go around to the most elementary haunted houses.”

“That’ll work.”

“I… I’m still a little scared ……,” said Hayakawa Keiko, trembling as she gripped Metu’s arm tightly.

“I’m here, don’t be afraid.” Takahashi Mito soothed.

Natsuki Aoi looked at the two men as they locked eyes, and for a moment almost forgot about this game setting where he was the hero.

“Good! Then it’s decided! We’ll leave tonight!” Sakurajima Apricot boosted her morale, and the three girls seemed to have reached a consensus.

……

Soon after school, the four of them had planned to take the bus, but Aoi Natsuki proposed to ride his own bike, mainly because if he got on the bus with the three girls, he would easily be called by some “enthusiastic people” and then go to the police station to drink tea.

Prevention is better than cure. Ride your own bike.

After agreeing on a location, the four of them soon met in front of a haunted house called “Shiver”.

Just by looking at the darkened set inside as well as listening to the creepy sound effects, Keiko Hayakawa took a step back in fear, and the movement of her arm around Metu became tighter.

Four people paid the ticket money, one after another into the venue, in front of the eyes is a gray, the ground is gradually stepped up no solid feeling.

It makes people lose their center of gravity, which creates a sense of panic.

Aoi Natsuki wasn’t panicking at all, that wasn’t nonsense, he was a person with the blessing of the gods, even if there really was a ghost, then he should retreat three feet when he saw him.

There was an eerie huffing sound, and Natsuki Arai looked up to see the bucket-sized stereo outboard amplifier.

Sakurajima Apricot looks excited to come to a different haunted house her desire to explore becomes strong and she especially catches details, many times stopping suddenly to look at the detailed monster modeling with an unusual gleam in her eyes.

God has blessed her with this stunning face, but it’s too bad she’s using it to play Tomie.

Thinking back to the whole way here today, both Sakurajima Apricot and Takahashi Mai received consistent stares from passersby, with each of the two types having their own male audience.

Sakurajima Apricot looked like a beautiful and mysterious young girl, Takahashi Midu looked like an overbearing childhood friend’s fait accompli, but it was Hayakawa Keiko who didn’t receive any attention, and her little bit of innocence was completely eclipsed in front of the two of them.

But she wasn’t discouraged, and since the last time she’d been encouraged by her brother, she’d made up her mind to try and be brave enough to give it a shot! Even if the result was not as good as expected!

Arai Natsuki also noticed this, and Hayakawa Keiko’s favorability suddenly skyrocketed, now reaching 55 favorability points, and he couldn’t understand what was happening.

Suddenly, the hole in front of him jumped out a hideous-looking monster, half of his face had already caved in, and directly collided face-to-face with Takahashi Maidu, who was hardened up, and Hayakawa Keiko next to him immediately screamed, and together with the surrounding surround sound, immediately the four of them formed a battle royale in the form of a general chase battle.

Sakurajima Apricot was cooperating with a smile on her face as she ran away, and that image was truly f*cked up.

Aoi Natsuki just froze for a second and didn’t look at it, turning to the left hole and chasing after it.

Running away for a dozen meters, the footsteps behind him faded away, and he began to search for his companion, and before long, he heard soft sobbing, and walked quickly over, pulling back the tattered curtain.

Crouching inside was Keiko Hayakawa.

Hayakawa put his hands in front of his mouth, his eyes slightly red, and when he glanced sideways to see that it was Aoi Natsuki, the first instant reaction in his head was to rush up and hug him.

And that’s how her body acted.

The next second, her hands tightened around his waist.

At this moment, the whole environment was silent, and Natsuki Arai felt the wet tears of the other man soaking his shirt, the wet heat sensation on his skin, and at the same time, he heard a slightly faster heartbeat bone conduction through his chest cavity ……

“Summer Tree ……”

It was the first time Hayakawa had called him by his name.
