Haru arrived after the morning shift, mop returned, uniform still on his body because he hadn't changed, coin in his hand.
The corridor was long and dull, the kind that exists in every large academy, connecting two buildings without any real purpose.
Posters stuck on the glass panels, some bent at the edges from being read too many times, others still fresh, ink still smelling. Students standing still reading, others pasting new ones over old ones, others calling out in low voices to whoever passed by:
"Hey. Cover your activity for 300. I don't ask why."
"Basic mana tutoring. Fair price. Come today."
"Looking for information about the first test. Paying well."
Haru stopped at the entrance of the corridor.
Looked at its entire length.
"This wasn't here last week."
He walked in slowly, reading as he went.
