Green text: Ghost House Panic?!
Jyou's middle school is holding its annual school festival today. Because it's the festival of a famous private school, the schoolgrounds are bustling with activity and there are tons of events to participate in!
Even inside the school building, Jyou's class had devoted much of their time preparing their haunted house, and it is now a huge success.
Izumi: Umm... I guess this is the place! It's got a nice atmosphere going, don't you think?!
Ruki: Well, let's not get our hopes up.
Holding their written invitations at hand, the three of them disappeared into the dark gloom of the classroom.
Jyou: Hehehe. They say that the panicked screams of cute girls are well-suited for a haunted house!
Within the darkness, frightened screams and shouts of excitement could be heard mingling together.
Izumi: Ew! What is that? Kyah!!
Izumi gave the reactions that Jyou expected. The satisfaction from that made scaring her worth it.
Ruki: ......? What's this?
Picking up the "fried tofu" that had been lowered in front of her face, she tossed it over her shoulder with a bored expression.
Among them, Tailmon was the only one who appeared nervous and kept constantly looking over her shoulder.
Rustle! There was a sound!!
Tailmon: Look out, Hikari! Stay back!!
Tailmon received the ghost (Junpei) that had jumped out at them with a flying kick.
Tailmon: You're not hurt, are you?!
Hikari: I...I'm fine, but um, Tailmon, that person wasn't really...
Tailmon: Don't worry! I won't let any of them come near you, Hikari!!
Hikari: Is that so? Fufu... then, I guess I'll count on you to protect me.
As he watched Tailmon keep a strict vigilance over her surroundings, Jyou considered the benefits of running away.
