The days easily passed...it didn't feel like it had been more than 2 weeks without any further information about the school I was investigating. Maybe it was a bit too much for me to investigate this school until I realized that I needed to ask my junior high school for a recommendation to register for this school's entrance exam session.. .

Next week is the Entrance Exam Session..I studied a lot during this 1 week to get in without having to worry about the organization or even my suspicions about the school it would only divert my focus towards studying..

I can say that these 2 weeks have been quite normal... my relationship with Akari is still going on as usual even though we haven't met, I also told mom and dad about it, mom insisted on going to visit her but I said she was focusing on the entrance exam so mom reluctant to disturb her she also asked where Akari was going to continue her education...I told her that she was going to boarding school...

Mom was shocked about that thinking maybe Akari was trying to avoid them...I denied that she was worried about them too, dad supported me because he thought Akari was old enough to feel independent

Mom forced me to go to the same school as her so I could watch over her... without being forced I would go where Akari went so I accepted it...

Dad has been grumbling lately because Akari always refuses his calls...it seems like dad really trusts me with how Akari's condition is judging by the way he always invites me to talk about her...

- A week later, exactly the last day of the entrance exam session-

Today was the final day of the entrance exam session. I went through it quite smoothly even though I looked lazy. I studied hard enough for my future so I wasn't worried about how the results of the written exam would be... finally on the last day there was an interview session...

They inquired about my background, motivations, and aspirations, and what I envisioned gaining from my time at this school. I responded to their questions in a composed and genuine manner."

Just a few days after that I received news from Shidou-san about that organization, according to her there was an incident involving that organization, specifically a person's suicide...

The claim that he committed suicide is puzzling, as the victim, a freelance worker named Matsuo, was found burned in a forest far from his home with no apparent connection to the organization. People around him seemed to be keeping silent, which raised questions about the involvement of that organization. The investigation uncovered various clues related to the victim's past occupation and background, but this information was mysteriously erased, halting my efforts until I receive further updates from Shidou-san.

Finally Shidou-san gave the news, After trying all day I finally managed to get a note that led to clues to the victim's background. It seems like they missed something. It was the victim's ATM card that Shidou-san found in the last apartment the victim visited. Through that I hacked the bank that was connected to it... and looking for various details especially the victim's previous work thankfully they seem to have missed out on covering this, most likely they thought that no one would investigate further about the case

Stolen story; please report.

I got the background details of the victim who seemed to be the former butler of a researcher named Ayanokoji Atsuomi, he had high influence as well as the head of the developer who was suspected of possibly having something to do with the organization, but I stopped investigating after that because my gut feeling told me that it would be dangerous for me to investigate further more about this person, sometimes ignorance is bliss based on my experience... even if I know what can I do with this information, I'm sure this person must have a high position in the government... moreover our goal is not to uncover crimes at least we have a suspicious perpetrator of the incident... even so, I'm sure the authorities have decided this incident as a case of suicide, which is meaningless for us to carry out further investigations, but this person named Ayanokoji makes me uncomfortable.

Shidou-san said that we would stop investigating this person... it made me relieved to hear that, but not only did she find an ATM card, a pamphlet showing Kudou Ikusei High School was also found there. that was the name of the school Akari and I went to...

'Terrible coincidence'

We suspect that the school may be linked to the Technology Development Center, or possibly to the Organization under investigation. It's conceivable that the school possesses something that the organization is truly seeking.

Due to the lack of information about this school, especially regarding my study conditions, Shidou-san asked me to enter and study there in the school but was worried about how to send information from inside out...I found various loopholes but it seemed like most of them were probably inducements and traps so I made my own solution without using a wireless communication network...

By the way I accepted her request by enrolling in that school I said that my sister was there so there was no reason to go to another school...

Akari didn't know who she really was, to her she was just the town librarian we usually met...

Exactly 2 days before the new school year started, I checked where I was placed via the school website, I got my ID which stated the class and seat where I was placed..

It seems that I'm in class A but Akari said she is in Class B...this will make it difficult for me to meet her especially with my various suspicions about this school and the many indirect connections to various previous events starting to make me a bit worried so I contacted Shidou-san about my placement hope she can handle it...

she said that the branch leader was a friend of the Director of this school and negotiating certain students especially moving upper to lower students seemed easy...I was a bit surprised by the mention of 'upper and lower classes' and she said it to me as if to convince me to stay in my current class even though I insisted on changing classes I also asked about the meaning of the mentioned hierarchy but there was no response from the branch head regarding that according to him and also I was technically considered an apprentice under her

With the influence of the branch head, I managed to be placed in class B where Akari was. I don't know what placement means and the unwritten hierarchy between classes A, B, C or D is suspicious but I remain focused on other things, especially since tomorrow is a new school year. I need to get ready

Mom seemed to have a worried face every second so I tried to cheer her up and Dad helped too but it seemed like it only had a small effect then Akari also surprisingly called Mom and Dad which made Mom's expression fresh again even though her worry hadn't subsided...

As a boarding school student, we are only permitted to bring a few personal items. I brought my old laptop and a mini laptop, which is more convenient for daily use. The rest of the essentials, including the school uniform, books, and other necessary items, were provided by the school. It's quite generous of them to cover all the school's mandatory needs.

The evening before Akari left, she called me, we talked a lot about school without mentioning our relationship, then she said that she regretted it because we weren't in the same class. So I replied

[Me] : We'll see :D

She was of course confused by my reply then ended the call because we needed to sleep to prepare for the new school year tomorrow...
