Since the plum blossoms bloomed at the end of June, the Kinki area has been sunny for many days and the heat is hard to get rid of.

The temperature has only increased, temporarily reaching its peak in the afternoon of mid-July. According to the Meteorological Agency's forecast, Kyoto and some areas east of Kyoto will experience rainfall in the evening, and the temperature will also drop by then.

But for Dangao students who are taking their final exams, this belated coolness is better than nothing.

The three-day final exam ended this afternoon, and at this time they still had to continue to suffer in the classroom without air conditioning.

The heat in summer always comes from the outside to the inside, from the body to the spirit, and then back to the whole body.

Even though I was just sitting, it was uncomfortable no matter what.

The dryness and heat are difficult to eliminate.

"..."

While spinning his pen, Zonggu turned his head and looked out the window.

The sky was blue, clear and windless, with no sign of an imminent change.

Did he remember wrongly that it won't rain until tomorrow evening?

Or, according to the definition of the Meteorological Agency, it is considered evening until twelve o'clock tonight?

"What are you thinking about..."

He was already dizzy from the heat.

Turning his eyes back to the classroom, the blackboard at the front was written with today's exam schedule.

The two exams in the morning were "Comprehensive Mandarin" and "Modern Society", and in the afternoon was "Japanese History", which is the exam he is taking now... No, his exam is over.

I glanced down at the filled answer sheet, and a drop of sweat fell down, but fortunately it didn't drop on the answer.

Zongya raised his head slightly again. The ceiling of the classroom was embedded with fluorescent lamps and there were air outlets for the central air conditioner. There were three rows in the front, middle and back.

Because of the inexplicable rule that "air conditioning is not allowed in the first semester", there won't be a breath of wind there until the second semester starts in early September.

Private schools are still so stingy, aren't they afraid of being complained by students... They all paid a lot of money to get in.

"..."

Zonggu suddenly remembered that he didn't pay.

The top student behind him who paid the money kicked his chair at this moment.

"What are you shaking around..."

"too hot."

The invigilator on the podium stood up and looked at the corner where the two of them were.

"What are you talking about over there? You are not allowed to whisper during the exam."

"teacher--"

Zongya was so hot that he didn't want to pay attention, but Hongzi raised her voice, "Can you turn on the air conditioner? It's already too hot to take the exam."

Her words immediately received responses from many students.

The invigilator, who was also wiping his hands with sweat, had a warm body and a cold heart, and did not want to shoulder the responsibility in an invigilated exam for nothing.

"no."

"yes……"

Hongzi lowered his body and lightly kicked the chair in front of him to show that he had tried his best.

Zonggu sighed softly and leaned back.

The small disturbance was inconspicuous in the continuous heat wave, and although the fifty-minute exam was long, it would eventually end.

After glancing at his watch, the invigilator stood up when the second hand jumped to "XI" (11) on the dial.

Taking a breath, the second hand jumped to "XII" (12).

"Okay, the exam is over."

Amidst the sudden noise in the classroom, Hongzi, who was sitting at the back, stood up and moved forward to collect the test papers.

"Finally the exam is over..."

"Um."

A big drop of sweat fell on his answer sheet.

Ling’s answer sheet... contains a lot of short answer questions!

"This question is just to explain the origin and influence of the 'Yingren Rebellion'..." She still remembered the question and whispered while putting away the answer sheet.

Chao Wu Ling nodded, "The explanation in the book is not complete."

"Eh……"

Hongzi wanted to ask something else, but Zonggu behind her motioned her to continue collecting the papers. The invigilator was still waiting on the podium.

"oh."

As she walked forward, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on Chaogiri Ling's back.

There was a chill in my hand, and my body and mind seemed to calm down.

"Just follow the answers written in the book. The Japanese history teacher has never personally experienced the Onin Rebellion."

"Um."

She turned around and her eyes fell on another person walking over.

Soya also turned around, "Fushimi?"

Fushimi Keisuke looked at his hand, even though he was used to it, he was still a little envious.

"I heard from several girls that Asagiri-san's body feels cool to the touch, and I want to try it too."

"Then you probably don't want this hand anymore."

"No, I mean like treating my sister..."

"Don't you want both hands?"

"..."

Fushimi was dumbfounded for a moment, and finally remembered the purpose of his coming here, and said, "I've finally finished the exam. Souya, do you want to go relax together? I've already called several people here."

Soya thought about it and realized that the two of them had a good relationship. Fushimi often invited him to hang out together, so it would not be good to always refuse.

"Where to go?"

"Karaoke."

...it’s better to refuse.

"I have other things..."

Handing the test paper to the invigilator, Hongzi also walked down at this time.

Fushimi looked at her, "Yoshikawa, Soya wants to go to karaoke with us, do you want to come?"

"Hello."

Hongzi looked at the two of them and turned his eyes, "Okay."

Fushimi looked at Soya again, "Yoshikawa is also going now, won't Soya come?"

"...Tell me first, how many people have been deceived by you like this."

"Don't say it so harshly. Everyone likes to be lively. As long as there are more people, it's fine. Don't worry about how the number of people increases."

"Fushimi will be the chairman of the committee next semester."

"Haha... Then it's settled." Fushimi patted his shoulder again, "Don't leave in a hurry. Wait in the classroom. I'll go to Class B to ask."

He turned around and left, using Soya's name to fool other girls.

"My former roommate, are you free after school...don't refuse yet, Souya wants to go to karaoke with us. I want to invite a few more people. Do you want to come with us?"

"...Sogu is going too? Okay."

Zonggu shook his head and leaned back.

"Do you really want to go to Soya?" Hongzi asked after sitting down.

"Now that I can't say it all of a sudden, it will be very difficult for Fushimi." He whispered, "Anyway, I don't have much plans after the exam. I can just go and stay for a while and then find any reason to leave."

He added: "If Hongzi wants to stay, that's fine."

"I'm just casual...but those girls are all here for Sogu."

"As long as Hongzi is here, nothing will happen to them."

"..."

Hongzi moved forward, blew on his sweaty neck, and whispered: "Am I Zonggu's girlfriend?"

"No. But in the eyes of other girls, it might look like we are dating."
