"Good morning, Handa-san." Kumiko greeted the security guard who worked night shift outside of the school. "Can I go inside, please?" She asked politely.
"Oh, well… You have already been an alumnus, Kumiko-chan, so this shouldn't be allowed." The middle-aged man whose hair had already turned white, Handa-san, answered casually. "Still, I know you are a good kid, so I'll allow it this time. Don't make any ruckus and don't mess things up inside, okay?"
"Thank you, Handa-san!"
Higo blinked for a moment, somehow getting himself surprised again. He didn't know that Kumiko was familiar with the security guard like that. Hell, based on their short interaction, it was clear that this was not the first time Kumiko asked something like that, and Higo would never deny that he was curious about it.
