Chapter 870 - I wont let you go (1/2)
After attending the graduation ceremony at the Hyakko academy, Haru had to admit that it was quite depressing since there were a lot of students who cried.
If it was a cry of happiness then he wouldn't say anything, but it was a cry of sadness since they had lost their freedom.
But he didn't do anything, and it was a reality.
If he was in their place then he was sure that he wouldn't get help from anyone.
In the end, he didn't think much. He was too lazy to think about the graduation ceremony that he had attended earlier. It was better to think that he should build a bathroom inside his private room later.
After the end of the graduation ceremony, he didn't go back with Kirari but he told her that he would visit her later.
Kirari agreed and told him to wait at her home since she had some matters that she needed to do after the graduation ceremony.
He knew that she went to meet a lot of alumnus of the school, especially a group of politicians and businessmen, and lent them money for the election or business.
Haru knew that Kirari had a talent for seeing people's abilities, and she also had a lot of capital after being given by him. He didn't need to worry about her, but of course, he missed her and thought about spending a night at her place.
*Ding!*
Nozomi: ”Where are you?”
Haru: ”I'm at school.”
Nozomi: ”You're done with school?”
Haru: ”I'm on my way back.”
Nozomi: ”Then come to my school, hurry! Eli is going to go back! You need to stop her and talk with each other!”
Haru: ”Roger!”
Haru had something to do and that was to solve the misunderstanding between him and Eli.

Eli massaged her temple since tomorrow was the day her upperclassman would graduate. It was quite a busy day for her, and her mood also wasn't good, especially when she felt that she had been cheated by Haru.
No one dared to get close to Eli since she gave off an aura which made people move away from her, especially her expression which was a bit scary right now.
”Umm... Ayase-san...?”
”Yes?”
Eli looked at the other members of the student council.
”N, no! I'll do it myself!”
The girl bowed before ran away because Eli was too frightened for her.
”....”
”Moo... Eli-chan, you can't scare people away,” Nozomi said.
”...”
Eli didn't say anything and wrote something on her laptop. She wanted to ask something, but she wasn't sure what to say.
”What's wrong? Do you want to ask me something?” Nozomi asked.
”Nozomi... D, did you still work at that shrine?” Eli asked.
”Of course, I'm still working, what's wrong?” Nozomi asked with a smile. Her cheek raised and seemed amused to see Eli's reaction.
”No, nothing!”
Eli sighed and said, ”I'll go back first.”
”Alright, be careful on the way,” Nozomi said and waved her hand.
Eli nodded and took her bag.
Looking at Eli who had left the student council room, Nozomi took out a card from the deck of tarot cards. She was very proficient at fortune-telling and when she saw the card which she had taken out...
Nozomi sighed and looked out of the window. She saw that there were crowds of schoolgirls who seemed to be looking at someone. She smiled and hoped that both of them would be alright, but at the same time, why did she feel quite uncomfortable?
---
Eli, who was about to go home, noticed a crowd that gathered at the entrance of the school. Her mood wasn't good and she thought that she needed to reprimand them to not cause trouble to other students.
”Everyone, please go home and don't gather in front of the school entrance!”
Hearing Eli's voice, everyone nodded and felt quite reluctant to go back since they were quite curious about this person.
But Eli had a lot of authority and prestige in front of normal students in this school and made some students didn't dare to fight back.
Eli nodded when she saw that some students were going home, but stopped when she realized that there was someone familiar leaning on the wall of the school entrance.
”Yo.”
