Anime: Desolate Darkness

Because Izumi Riko wanted Kasumigaoka Utaha to wear different styles of clothes in different places, Kimura Takumi was kicked out.

……

Kimura Takumi was driving on the street. Most of the shops on both sides of the road were closed, the streets and alleys were a bit deserted, and there were less than half of the pedestrians as usual.

It goes without saying that the reason for this situation was the fierce battle a few days ago.

Takumi Kimura held the steering wheel nonchalantly while casually glancing at the scene outside the car window.

Nanamiya Chion has fallen, and the identity of the new fit person will probably not be known until the next time the monster comes.

Unlike the Seventh House, the next fit person is likely to be a complete stranger.

In this case.

"Why not just absorb his energy?"

After all, not every fit person is as easy to fool as Qigong.

Just as I was thinking about it, the cell phone rang.

I took it out and saw that it was Sakurajima Mai calling.

This was the first time the other party contacted me after the Saurus incident.

"Hello? What's up Sakurajima-san?"

There was silence for more than three seconds before Sakurajima Mai's pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Kimura, is it convenient for you now? I want to meet you."

……

In a coffee shop.

"What exactly do you want to say, Sakurajima-san?"

After arriving here as invited, Kimura Takumi has been sitting here for more than ten minutes and has even finished his second cup of coffee, but Sakurajima Mai sitting opposite him has never spoken a word.

She seemed a little nervous, her hands kept fiddling on the table, her eyes wandering around, occasionally glancing quickly at Kimura Takumi, then quickly looking away.

When asked this question, Sakurajima Mai trembled all over, and her eyes finally fell on Kimura Takumi's face.

"Um...about the teacher's true identity...he's a giant, right?"

Kimura Takumi was speechless, "You saw it with your own eyes, why are you asking again?"

Thinking that the other party was angry, Sakurajima Mai explained anxiously, "I just haven't recovered from what happened that day, so I wanted to confirm it again!"

"Okay." Kimura Takumi agreed with this statement and answered honestly, "I am, and then what?"

"No wonder the teacher knows so much about the supernatural..."

Mai Sakurajima suddenly felt emotional, thinking that this was why Takumi Kimura knew about [Adolescence Syndrome].

Kimura Takumi was also very happy that she thought this way, at least she didn't have to spend a lot of time explaining.

"Speaking of which, if the teacher is not human, can he still do that kind of thing like a normal person? Can he only take on a physical form?"

As soon as she asked this question, Sakurajima Mai regretted it! Her face instantly turned red.

She prayed madly in her heart, hoping that the other party would not understand her outrageous words.

But who is Kimura Takumi? Her expectations are doomed to fail.

"Let's not talk about why Sakurajima-san cares about that. I think you have a misunderstanding. I was a human first, then a giant, not a giant first."

"Ah?" Sakurajima Mai was slightly stunned and did not fully understand the meaning of the other party's words.

"You won't understand even if I tell you more. Anyway, I'm normal. I hope you won't question a man's ability in that aspect to my face."

Everything else is fine, but when talking about this point, Kimura Takumi was very serious. How can a man say no!

Seeing the other person staring at her and saying those words seriously, Sakurajima Mai's face turned even redder.

However, after learning this answer which was almost good news, she was secretly happy.

"Sakurajima-san actually cares about that aspect. Are you planning anything bad towards the teacher?" Kimura Takumi suddenly changed the subject, with a sly smile on his face.

Kimura Takumi thought that Mai Sakurajima would panic and start to explain in a hurry. But unexpectedly, Mai Sakurajima just nodded slightly.

The other party was so direct that he felt a little uneasy.

"Are you serious?" He picked up the cup, intending to drink some coffee to calm down, but accidentally picked up the empty cup.

"Yeah." Sakurajima Mai still lowered her head and responded softly.

"I am your teacher."

"Not after graduation, right?"

"I'm not an ordinary human. Aren't you afraid?"

"But if you hadn't been here a few days ago, I don't know how many times I would have died, right?"

What's more, if it weren't for the other party's help, I would have disappeared from the world in disguise because of the problem of [Adolescence Syndrome], right?

The feelings that sprouted two months ago have already secretly borne fruit.

If the world wasn't too dangerous, Sakurajima Mai would have liked to save this feeling until after graduation.

Her current situation is similar to that of Liuyin. She has experienced a life-and-death situation and is worried that if she doesn't express her feelings, she may never have another chance in the future.

After all, in front of a monster that is like a natural disaster, humans are no different from lambs to be slaughtered.

"One last question."

"Teacher, you say..." Sakurajima Mai showed unprecedented seriousness and looked at Kimura Takumi with a firm gaze.

She has been preparing at home for several days just to get the answer in one go. She absolutely cannot back down!

"I have a girlfriend, more than one, can you accept that?"

"Ah?" Mai Sakurajima was stunned.

Obviously, she was still not prepared enough.

……

At the same time, in the Chiba Prefectural Police Department, the painter was holding up a portrait for Glacier City to see.

"Glacier, is this what it looks like?" The painter asked with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

Glacier City got closer and took a closer look. The person in the portrait was Chion Nanamiya. "Yes! That's it!"

He excitedly reached out and took the portrait.

"Thank you so much, Araki!" Glacier City bowed deeply to the other party.

Araki quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Hey, don't be so polite, we are friends."

Glacier City nodded, expressed his gratitude again, and then turned and left.

Not long after, he arrived at the Investigation Department and found his friends there.

"Bingchuan, what do you want from this little girl?" The friend took the sketch curiously, looked at it for a few seconds, and thought the girl in the drawing was cute, but didn't see anything special about her.

"Is she related to a certain case?" asked the friend puzzledly.

Glacier City did not give a direct answer, but just put his hands together and said, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you the details. Anyway, thank you for your help."

My friend knew Bingchuan City well, so since he had said so, he stopped asking questions and readily agreed: "Okay, no problem, I'll take care of it! But you have to remember to buy me a drink when the time comes!"

After saying that, my friend turned around, put the portrait into the scanner, then opened the facial recognition system in the computer and uploaded the scanned image.

Because the painting was so realistic and exactly the same as the photo, the system gave a result quickly.

"Got it! Nanamiya Chione, age 16..." The friend looked at the information displayed on the screen and read it out to himself.
