Captain Column said,

I blink at the words of Steyl and Arthur, who returned to the classroom as usual after the end of the second time.

It seems that I promised to try my next strength after the lunch break, and this time when I returned to the classroom, no one could follow me.It is usual for me to come back to the classroom as soon as possible, but this time the two of them had different faces when they opened the door.Even now, the expressions of "yes" and "yes" are serious.

According to their story, when they went out to the schoolyard in the selection class, they saw Captain Column.Even though I could only see it from a distance, it seemed that Arthur's eyes could clearly see the swordscape with a domination that was not unusual from Stale's eyes.

I've seen you as a knight many times, but I can't imagine Captain Column's expression.Besides, if you're on a mission, it's fair to say that people who don't confuse public and private don't hide it in front of their students and teachers.And if you think about the cause, you're probably definitely.....

"Nate, isn't that right..."

His scaredly moving mouth sounded lower than expected.

At the same time, they drop their heads vertically in a lead-like weight.Stills and Arthur had the same idea.

Captain Column was originally in charge of the classes for the second and third periods.Other than that, he's watching Nate in the boys' dorm.If it was like that before the second limit, it was definitely Nate who was last with me.I can't imagine what I could have done to make Captain Column so angry.

Neither of them seemed to be able to imagine that much, and their faces remained frowned upon.Looking at it, I don't think it was a mistake or misunderstanding.

"Let's go to the dorm anyway."Philip, have you asked Captain Column to do this already? "

Absolutely.

I smile back to Sail, who nods that she has already moved the card in an instant and told me that.

If Captain Column had received the card safely, he would have waited for us in the dorm as he did yesterday.

We'll meet up with Powell, then head to the boys' dorm.As a precaution, it may be okay to have Still and Powell eat lunch first.I'm sorry to let you lose your meal on a daily basis.Even if you think about Captain Column, it could be a controversial issue again.

I left the classroom with Arthur, who was carrying my bag, and Steyl, who seemed to have a difficult face while holding down the black rim of his glasses.While the three of them were talking, the boys also came back from the schoolyard and we went out into the hallway to switch.If you don't get Powell to wait for you, who's always waiting for you before us, you can walk up to the crossing.

"...... Captain Column?"

Huh, quickly loosening my legs.

As soon as I reached the crossing, my mouth was left open to the person standing ahead.There's only Captain Column in the place where Powell usually sits waiting for us.Two questions arise simultaneously as to why there is no Powell and why there is a Column Captain.

Captain Column's expression, which had been staring out the window for a long time, looked somehow like a sunny expression.But now it looks calm.Before my voice spilled, Captain Column noticed me with a sign. He turned his face and turned his body to the front.

Just as we knew we were coming here, we gaze at Tskatsuka and walk a little faster than usual.

“I'm sorry. I heard Powell was meeting me here yesterday, so he kept me waiting.”

Thank you for the card, and Captain Column, who showed it to me with his fingers pinched from his clothes pocket, is only a teacher's tone.

From the way they talked, it didn't seem that Stale had changed the meeting place.Although she was behaving normally, her palms were dampened by the expression that seemed to be somehow hard.Arthur's throat chirped behind him.

"I told Powell about the situation and he pulled it off today.I apologize for doing this on my own, but I have something I'd like to check with you guys....... I need you to move a little bit. "

The words were soft, but with a serious look, I agreed, of course, to both Steyl and Arthur.

That means Captain Column has something to say to us right now.As a representative, he returned a word from me and followed Captain Column's fast-footed steps to his back.It is a passage that is not crowded now, but where students pass by.I'm sure I can't speak publicly here.

If I tied my lips and was led by Captain Column, I went down the stairs and went out, and finally stopped behind the middle school building.If the incidence of poor students has dropped sharply in the recent past, it is certainly best for every secret because now only the guard and teacher on duty appear.

Captain Column stood still and looked around once to see if anyone was around.Arthur looked around in the same way, and finally nodded his eyes with Captain Column.I tried spinning my neck lightly to match me and Stale, but I didn't feel any signs.I didn't even know that Lieutenant Harrison was there.

“I'm really sorry about this.And let me tell you something. "

Even after we confirmed that there were no eyes, it remained only a teacher's tone.

As soon as you can, you'll be ready for Captain Column, who will talk to the person in charge directly.Swallow it in your mouth and push your fingertips into the hands that were stacked before.

I know it's related to Nate.It is fair to say that I would like to speak without myself.

Stay silent and wait for the words.Tingling tension spreads from Arthur's back to his shoulders as quickly as possible.Captain Column, who once held his forehead with his fingers, finally told us the main thing.

Nate didn't go to school.

... the silence rushed through my ears.
