Sumire Tohsaka

The winter vacation has always been as short as a rabbit's tail. You don't have to reach out to grab it, and it disappears after a hula.

After Tohsaka Sumire returned to Kyoto, she only stayed at home for a few days, and the third semester started.

"I feel like I didn't take a long break before school started! Damn it, why does Luoshan start school so early—two more days off!"

Sumire Tohsaka was walking on the winter slope while listening to a female classmate she met by chance complaining to her.Young girls are cute even when they complain, and the ending sounds coquettishly raised, making the listeners smile.

"Indeed, as Kawashima-san said, it would be great if I could rest for a few more days." Sumire Tohsaka echoed her softly.

"Right, right." The girl nodded repeatedly, and took Sumire Tohsaka's arm, "However, I didn't expect someone like Tohsaka-san to think that the vacation is too short, and I feel a little surprised."

"Why?" Sumire Tohsaka tilted her head in confusion.

"Because I feel like you are the kind...how should I put it, the kind of lady who doesn't care about such trivial things. The length of vacation doesn't make any difference to you...I'm thinking about how to say it..." Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, "By the way, I just don't have that worldly desire!"

"What kind of description is that?" Tohsaka Sumire laughed, "No one thinks the vacation is too long, right?"

"That's why I was surprised." The girl lowered her head a little embarrassedly, "Because I feel that Tohsaka-san is that kind of person. However, it's not bad now, I feel...well, it doesn't feel so difficult to get close to."

Sumire Tohsaka's expression reveals a hint of confusion, as if she doesn't quite understand where she makes people feel inaccessible.She and this girl named Eriko Kawashima are in the front and back seats.Liyuan's classroom system is very different from that of Luoshan. Sumire Tohsaka occasionally leaves some small things such as textbooks, notes, and stationery. Every time at this time, Eriko Kawashima will lend them to her, and the two of them are familiar with each other. stand up.

Even in Liyuan, it is not uncommon for girls to get together to chat about gossip and ghost stories.People have something in common, so there is no difference whether it is outside or inside.

"Speaking of which, has Tohsaka-san heard of that rumor recently?"

Eriko Kawashima leaned next to Sumire Tohsaka, leaned into her ear, and began to tell her the horror stories she had read on the website in the past two days in a mysterious tone unique to female high school students.

"In the past two years, there have been a lot of high-altitude falling incidents [without reason]."

The girl whispered in her ear.

"Last summer, there were several suicides by jumping off buildings in Wutiao Building. Those who jumped were all middle school students or high school students, in short, they were ordinary adolescent girls. Whether it was family members or friends, they all said that they did not commit suicide The reason. The police can't find out why. These girls who committed suicide by jumping off the building all have one thing in common, do you know what it is?"

Etoko Kawashima paused for a moment, but she heard Sumire Tohsaka answer naturally.

"There is no suicide note, right?" Her tone was very flat. "Eight people fell to their deaths from the same building, but none of them left a suicide note. There was no trace of suicide at the scene, and there was no sign of any grudges between them. The police In the end, the case can only be closed by suicide.”

"That's right." Kawashima Etoshiko shrank his neck slightly, "Tohsaka-san, do you know?"

"Watching the news while eating is my new hobby." Sumire Tohsaka raised her hand and brushed her long hair behind her ears, "But isn't that incident over?"

"Although that was over, there were other falling incidents." When Kawashima Etoshiko said this, he looked around subconsciously, and then lowered his voice, "This time it is not a person who fell. Or, only Part of it is human."

"what is that?"

This strange statement made Tohsaka Sumire a little confused.

Kawashima Etoshiko lowered his voice.

"It's a woman's internal organs," she said.

"I see." Sumire Tohsaka nodded, and asked another question, "However, how can you be sure it's a woman?"

"Because the video has been spread everywhere." Eriko Kawashima compared her lower abdomen, hinting at a certain female organ, "Many people went there specially to take pictures of the organs falling out. The video was posted on the Internet. The police were also very distressed, because even if they sealed off the building and left plainclothes and surveillance cameras, they did not see anyone going up. The internal organs fell one after another from the roof of an abandoned building where no one was there. It's scary, right?"

"Well... maybe."

Tohsaka Sumire responded ambiguously, not knowing what answer would be "normal" at such a time, so she had to find the safest words in her opinion, and tried to ambiguously pass.

"However, there are indeed many incidents of falling from high-altitude buildings recently." She recalled the morning news she had read, "I remember, there are also many incidents of elementary school students falling from high-rise buildings for no reason?"

"That's right. Parents and the school should be stricter." Kawashima Etoshiko was indeed distracted, "But there is something very strange about that incident... I saw someone on the Internet saying that although there were children in previous years I accidentally fell to my death while playing at a high place, but things are not right during this time."

"where?"

Sumire Tohsaka turned her gaze.

Jiang Lizi Kawashima recalled for a while, and then said: "Many of the children who fell to death during this period went there in groups of two."

"Could it be some kind of courage test that is only popular among elementary school students?"

Tohsaka Sumire put forward her own conjecture.

"For example, if two people stand on the edge of a tall building and walk face to face, whoever falls first loses... a game of courage like this?"

"What is it, Tohsaka-san..."

Eriko Kawashima shivered fiercely, as if to fight against the chill that was running through her body, she bit her lip and forced herself to laugh, but her hands were still unconsciously crossed on her chest, tightly clasped Arms, like this can suppress the inexplicable fear in the chest.

"Don't say such stupid things! They are not stupid, even elementary school students have basic safety awareness!"

Sumire Tohsaka put one hand to her lips, nodded after thinking for a few seconds, and agreed with Eriko Kawashima kindly.

"You're right." She smiled a little embarrassedly, "I didn't expect it... Generally speaking, it is indeed like that."

Etoko Kawashima looked at Sumire Tohsaka, and for some reason, suddenly felt a chill down her spine.She subconsciously took a step away from the girl in front of her, and then began to blame herself for being suspicious in her heart, completely unable to understand why she had such thoughts.

——Why, for a moment, did I feel that Tohsaka-san was scary?

she thought, bewildered.

But Sumire Tohsaka didn't feel her confusion.The two walked into the campus, and after attending the opening ceremony, they rearranged their seats under the arrangement of the head teacher. This time, Eriko Kawashima was transferred to the back row, and Sumire Tohsaka and Seijuro Akashi became the same table .

"Please give me your advice in the new semester, Akashi-kun."

"Please advise, Tohsaka."

After saying hello normally, the class teacher called them out at the same time.After the two walked to the teacher's office, the person waiting there was not the head teacher.

It turned out that the foreign teacher in charge of teaching foreign languages ​​wanted to find the two of them.

"Akashi-san and Tohsaka-san, both of you have good grades in foreign languages. So I would like to recommend you to participate in the English competition."

The foreign teacher is a blond young man with a pale face. His hair is a rare pure gold, so pure that there is not even a trace of variegation. It hangs naturally beside his face like golden ears of wheat, which makes people feel Think of marble statues from ancient Rome.The handsome face does not reveal the age, but the eyes are like the sea in winter, blue and far away, as if it can accommodate everything.

And now those eyes were watching Sumire Tohsaka and Seijuro Akashi gently.

"The time is about this time." He pushed a document over, speaking in a very gentle tone, "Do you have time? If you have other things to do, you can tell me. This is not a compulsory activity."

The name of this foreign teacher is John Libet, and now Luoshan is the most popular young teacher among students, no matter male or female, there is no one.

He seems to be from Eastern Europe, but his English doesn't have any accent.Luoshan High School will also start courses in some small languages, and John seems to be able to cope with it. Whether it is French, German or Czech, he speaks very well, and there is nothing to criticize even the most difficult Latin .

Apart from Gengiri Satsuki from Rien, John Libet is the most proficient in foreign languages ​​that Sumire Tohsaka has ever met.

"I have no problem."

Sumire Tohsaka picked up the document and looked at it for a while, then recalled her recent schedule, and found that there was no conflict, so she nodded as a matter of course.

Tohsaka Sumire has a very good relationship with this foreign teacher.She is very interested in languages ​​from all over the world, and she often finds this teacher to communicate and discuss after class.Both of them are very interested in literature, and John also recommended a lot of book lists to her.Therefore, among all the teachers in the classroom, she actually got to know this foreign teacher the earliest.

Or maybe it's because she and this teacher's thinking circuit are somewhat inexplicably fit.Occasionally, some students would say that Tohsaka-san and Mr. John have a very similar atmosphere—such words.

One of the reasons for Johann Libet's popularity among students, though, was that he was an unassuming, almost gracious man.He always thinks from the perspective of the students and thinks of them very much, even at this time.

Those blue eyes turned to Akashi Seijuro, and greeted him gently.

"Akashi, is there no problem?" His voice was also very soft, "The basketball club is very busy, and the work of the student union... Hard work is a good thing, but don't push yourself too hard."

"I have no problem, Mr. Libet." Akashi Seijuro also collected the materials, and nodded to the Eastern European youth, "This schedule does not conflict with the activities of the basketball club, and I will prepare well."

In this way, they decided to participate in this national English competition.

The first stop of this competition is Teidan High School in Mihua Town, Tokyo.
