Sourcebook
Intro
After school, Guest returned to the building to pick up a forgotten item and stopped in their tracks at the sound of voices coming from the student council room.
A weary voice could be heard from inside the student council room.
I just want to go home already.
As if exasperated.
There he goes again.
The sound of voices talking with a hint of amusement could be heard.
Even though you're so refreshing at school.
The voice that could be heard belonged to the student council president, Rei Takamiya, who was always smiling kindly.
Peeking through the gap in the door, there he was— Tie loosened, smile gone, looking like a completely different person.
