The classroom was filled with smoke and the acrid smell of burning paper. Ryuu and Fuuma cautiously made their way inside, their eyes scanning the room for any sign of Aoi.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mdNS6XOzl

"Aoi!" Ryuu called out, his voice echoing in the smoke-filled space.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPg0QfRgpw
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkjHIWhKzi
There was no answer. The room was empty, except for a single desk overturned in the corner, its contents scattered across the floor.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT5QpfKxij
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2NQ7tOWf7
"She's not here," Fuuma said, his voice strained.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChJh5Icd8x
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtu6jJLEeM
"Where could she have gone?" Ryuu asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDSevkamJN
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW8eTCiNki
Suddenly, they noticed a small, crumpled piece of paper lying on the floor near the overturned desk. Ryuu picked it up and unfolded it, his eyes widening in surprise.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkLz9mVyRn
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT19RDwrJNt
It was a note, written in Aoi's neat handwriting. "I'm going to the library," it read. "Meet me there in 30 minutes."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWw0B6vRRVW
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStIxMEnYJt
"The library?" Ryuu said, his voice filled with confusion. "Why would she go to the library?"278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkxxmVOkw4
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRohE2t4Myo
Fuuma shrugged. "I don't know, but we need to find her."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoLHUWYuck
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgagbxoQMqv
They rushed out of the classroom and headed towards the library, their hearts filled with a mixture of relief and curiosity. What was Aoi doing at the library? And why had she left them a note?278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ElAL6YGg3
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCBxYRJGUF
As they entered the library, they were greeted by a scene of quiet order and concentration. Students were scattered throughout the room, their heads bent over books, their faces illuminated by the soft glow of reading lamps.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAnYYcylO1
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2bmy4BuUG
Ryuu scanned the room, his eyes searching for Aoi. He spotted her sitting at a table in the back corner, her head buried in a thick volume. He approached her cautiously, his footsteps silent on the carpeted floor.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaD63izCiMy
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPZ34mOOzb
"Aoi," he whispered, his voice barely audible above the hushed murmur of the library.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqmgzEnhcr
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRHNMF3uMo
Aoi looked up, her eyes widening in surprise. "Ryuu! Fuuma! What are you doing here?"278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00XLNl3JaL
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzbPiNFLDc
"We were looking for you," Ryuu said, his voice filled with relief. "We thought you were still in the classroom."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMZstALVYw
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDk5RjS9GX
"I left a note," Aoi said, pointing to the crumpled piece of paper on the table. "I didn't want to wait for the fire alarm to go off."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3314ys1OG
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1TqNOWLHF
"But why did you go to the library?" Fuuma asked, his curiosity piqued.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCvdQ9rwWV
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagvkO5Rc6o
Aoi hesitated for a moment, then sighed. "I needed to do some research for a project," she said. "I'm working on a presentation about the French Revolution."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaJsE333cF
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHgMPju7DR
"The French Revolution?" Ryuu said, his eyes widening in disbelief. "That's the same thing Mr. Tanaka was talking about in class!"278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxMgmNyKYV
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tJseavAo7
Aoi nodded. "Yes, it is."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3cOiRCbLd
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NPx9WEgkG
"But you're the class president," Ryuu said. "You don't need to do extra work."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSNTFArMWJ
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TUtPKfDX5
"I like to be prepared," Aoi said, her voice firm. "And besides, I find the French Revolution quite fascinating."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIis37D20OI
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOot6tXHUK
Ryuu and Fuuma exchanged a look, their faces filled with a mixture of admiration and confusion. They had never seen Aoi so passionate about anything before.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlAizcwwDY
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kVmQbB6HX
"Well, we're glad you're safe," Fuuma said, his voice laced with relief. "And we're impressed that you're so dedicated to your studies."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnVO2LQ7lh
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKoLMDlyM9
Aoi smiled. "Thanks," she said. "Now, why don't you guys come sit with me? I could use some help with this research."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDluBv1afj
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ10dS1AcD
Ryuu and Fuuma hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement. They spent the next hour poring over books with Aoi, learning about the French Revolution and discovering a new side to their friend.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AVODBPWoY
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnZUjErT7x
As they left the library, Ryuu couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and admiration for Aoi. She was more than just the class president; she was a brilliant, passionate, and surprisingly interesting person.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJvciwqTUN
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj7j64jYIQ
"I never knew you were so smart, Aoi," he said, his voice filled with awe.278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjknVGV5vd7
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWSOIroqby
Aoi blushed, a shy smile playing on her lips. "I try," she said. "But I'm not always as serious as I seem."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzh7mvTiDIb
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqHPtwMPCi
Ryuu chuckled. "I know," he said. "You're just hiding your true personality."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKLBzEEoix
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0A1J2rKdZ
Aoi laughed, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Maybe," she said. "But I'm glad you guys are starting to see the real me."278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22Xp7Sogo2
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjfEiM4P0M
As they walked back to the classroom, Ryuu couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. He had a feeling that this was just the beginning of a long and hilarious friendship with Aoi.
Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji left the library, their hearts filled with a mixture of relief and curiosity. Aoi was safe, and they had learned a new side to her personality. But the mystery of the fire alarm remained, and they couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss. The school was buzzing with whispers and rumors, and they knew that their adventure was far from over.
