Tomori looked up at Rikuo, who had suddenly stood up.
"Rikuo-kun, did you not do your homework?"
"Tomori, have you learned to read minds?"
Rikuo looked at Tomori, who had seen through his predicament at a glance, and suspected he had crossed over.
'I like Sakiko-sensei! Although Little Penguin is cute, Sakiko's expression of disdain; Sakiko's stubbornness; Sakiko's crying face; Sakiko's way of attacking others but hurting herself; Sakiko's troubled expression when she saw her father being taken away by the police again... And Sakiko's feet! So sweet!'
Tomori felt an unknown malice from Rikuo's lingering expression, but this malice seemed to be directed at the class next door...
"Actually, Rikuo-kun, I can help you write it. Yesterday's homework was mostly math, and I can copy mine very quickly."
Looking at Tomori offering to help him with his homework, Rikuo felt that Sakiko's feet were not as fragrant for a moment, but only for a moment, his heart belonged to Sakiko-sensei!
"If you do not abandon me, I wish to recognize you as my godmother!"
Because Rikuo forgot his lack of coordination and tried to kneel on one knee and bow with both hands, he fell straight forward.
Fortunately, Tomori was at the side of his desk, not in front of him, so Rikuo just fell to the ground...
'Why is no one helping me?'
Tomori was startled by this scene, but having witnessed too many of Rikuo's strange actions, she just watched.
Rikuo was lying down in the morning, which was fine, but this time he was prostrate, and because his hands were preparing to bow, they fell to his sides, forming a crucifixion pose.
"...Tomori, why are you just watching! Tomori, have you betrayed me?!"
Tomori was even more confused by this, but she seemed to understand something. She squatted down, shyly kissed her own hand, then touched Rikuo's cheek with her hand, and silently picked up Rikuo's backpack with a red face, preparing to help him with his homework. After all, class was not far off.
'Rikuo-kun mentioned betrayal and then made a crucifixion pose? Hmm, he must be trying to express the assassin's kiss of Judas, the thirteenth apostle and betrayer! Hmm, I guess I understand Rikuo-kun a little more now... But it's still so embarrassing.'
Tomori felt she understood Rikuo's meaning because of yesterday's interaction and hearing the word 'betrayal'.
'Rikuo-kun actually wants me to kiss him, it must mean that our relationship has gotten better! It must be.'
Rikuo's brain short-circuited. Even his i9-13900k processor couldn't understand why Tomori would indirectly kiss him. And in front of everyone! He began to ponder life.
'I was born in the obstetrics and gynecology department of a hospital in Yokohama, a healthy baby weighing 3.2 kg... Ah, no, that's not right!'
Unfortunately, no matter how much he thought, it would only burn out his CPU.
Fortunately, our Saint Anon was there at this time, otherwise Rikuo would never have been able to get up again! (Literally)
"Really! Even if Rikuo-kun and Tomori-chan have a good relationship, they can't just play around like this in class."
Anon tried to help Rikuo up, but she found that he was limp, and with a height difference of 21cm, she really couldn't lift him.
"Rikuo-kun, are you not feeling well? It feels like your body has no points of support at all."
"Because of the trashy Rider System, my body is already all tattered..."
"Trashy? Rider System? What does that mean? Rikuo-kun, can you say something I can understand? If you keep this up, I'll get angry!"
"Nothing, it's just that my mind was indeed all tattered just now. I just exercised too much yesterday, and the muscles in my limbs were slightly strained..."
"Huh? You call this a slight muscle strain? Mo!"
Anon listened to Rikuo say a bunch of incomprehensible things, then turned around and called the traffic light trio to help him back to his seat.
'Good thing it's the traffic light, not the signal light. Otherwise, as Togawa Kiyotsugu's godfather, I would have to go west with tears in my eyes.'
Rikuo's CPU hadn't finished self-repairing, but Tomori had already finished his homework, gently placed it on Rikuo's desk, and shyly went back.
'First, rule out that Tomori likes me! With all due respect, we've only known each other for one day! And my heart has belonged to Sakiko-sensei since a month ago!'
...
Although there was a small interlude, the day's classes quickly passed. Rikuo also felt that his body had mostly recovered, and it was time to investigate matters related to the 8 of Spades.
'If I'm going to investigate someone, aside from their background, it would be their social connections, right? Then the best method would be Soyo, followed by Anon, who is willing to face the past, right?'
Rikuo felt that his social network and background were insufficient to find a student with only a name among the student body.
"So, these two people will gather in one place, and that's RNG! I wonder if RNG will be a Kamen Rider contract."
Anon was packing her bag, preparing to find the band members. Suddenly, she heard Rikuo shouting RNG, which startled her, but as if she had gotten used to it, she sighed softly, finished packing silently, and prepared to leave the classroom.
The friendly traffic light group heard Rikuo say RNG and came over to ask.
"Kamiyama-san, are you also in a band? I heard you say RNG just now? It should be RiNG, right? I heard Tomori-chan used to be in a band, so have you guys reformed a band? With Kamiyama-san's style, you should be playing swan metal?"
"Actually, I only play gogogaga rock band, but Tomori seems to be preparing to form a band."
Rikuo awkwardly scratched his head, not expecting that he couldn't casually touch that team name even in Japan? But Tomori had already become cheerful yesterday, so he also wanted to give Tomori a push to let her meet the right five people! The kind that doesn't need to wear helmets! Hmm, not necessarily, maybe Anon needs to wear one!
Anon, who had just finished packing, heard Rikuo say that Tomori was preparing to form a band and excitedly turned around.
"Really? Is Tomori-chan really preparing to form a band? I want to form a band too! Tomori-chan, how about we form one together?"
'Sing together? Become student idols together?'
Tomori heard Rikuo say he wanted to form a band, picked up her backpack, and walked over to Rikuo.
"Since Rikuo-kun wants me to form a band..."
"Oh~ Why does Tomori-chan listen to Rikuo-kun so much? I heard you two went home together after school yesterday, could it be?"
"Yes, we experimented with superpowers. And I became a Kamen Rider, and I also met Magneto. Under my powerful deterrent, Magneto was driven away by me, and then I used my flying ability to send Tomori home."
Rikuo saw Tomori's shy appearance and, fearing unnecessary misunderstandings, directly stated the truth!
"Mo, if you don't want to say, then don't. By the way, Tomori-chan, what instrument do you play..."
Tomori and Anon hit it off immediately. Although Anon took the lead, Saint Anon can do no wrong, Amen!
Then they went to R! N! G!
...
Meanwhile, at the Wind Instrument Club.
Sakiko sat alone on the piano stool, with no audience. At this time, the Wind Instrument Club had not yet started its club activities. Even if Sakiko had a sum of compensation, it was needed for living expenses and could not be used to buy a keyboard for practice.
Only Beethoven's "Für Elise" could be heard gracefully emanating from the Wind Instrument Club, but no matter how far the piano music traveled, it couldn't reach...
