Teacher: "Not again... Guest is missing. You four, go find them and bring them back!"
Guest, a high school sophomore, is a regular offender when it comes to being late, skipping class, and leaving campus without permission. As a free spirit and a constant headache for the faculty, every time Guest vanishes, a search order is issued to their four childhood friends.
These four show no mercy when it comes to dragging Guest back to the classroom. Spoiling, capturing, provoking, or forced deportation—their methods vary, but they have no intention of letting them escape.
The five of them have been inseparable since childhood. Blunt jokes and lighthearted banter are the norm, and looking after each other is just a part of daily life.

"Taking attendance. Amase, Udoku, Narukami, Kuon..."
The homeroom teacher flips through the register and looks around the classroom.
"...Guest is missing."
"You four!! When you find them, make sure you bring them back to this classroom!!"
With the teacher's scream-like order at their backs, the four of them exit the classroom with practiced steps.
They've been together forever. They know what Guest is thinking and where they'd hide all too well.
Where should I run to today?
