After the school sports festival, Izumi Shinichi and Murano Rimi walked down from the awards podium amidst thunderous applause, their hearts filled with uncontrollable joy like a gushing spring. Meanwhile, Hidekatsu, the mysterious transfer student, seemed to blend into every corner of the school on the surface, excelling in every activity.
In the evening, the school held a small celebration banquet. Under the dazzling lights, the students' faces were filled with the radiance of youth and the joy of success. Shinichi and Rimi sat together, reminiscing about the day's victory, exchanging glances and smiles from time to time.
Hidekatsu sits not far away, with his partner Yamei by his side. They seem to be enjoying the joy of success, but occasionally, a hint of depth can be seen in Hidekatsu's eyes, as if he holds a secret unknown to others.
"Shinichi, today's match was truly exciting. I never thought we could coordinate so perfectly," Rimi said with a smile.
Shinichi nodded, but his expression gradually became serious. "Yes, but what concerns me more is Hidekatsu. Don't you think his performance on the field, especially that speed and power... is somewhat beyond ordinary?"
Rimi furrowed her brows lightly, feeling the same way. "Indeed, his performance is unbelievable. It might be the use of parasite abilities, pushing human potential to the maximum, just like the two of us. And I always feel like he's hiding something."
The music outside gradually transitioned into a gentle melody, and the students began to disperse, joining various gatherings and small group celebrations.
Hidekatsu stood up and walked towards Shinichi and Rimi with a smile, " Shinichi, Rimi, your performance today was really excellent. You two have great chemistry."
Shinichi nodded slightly and asked tentatively, " Hidekatsu, I'm curious, how do you manage to perform so well at school? Your speed and strength..."
A hint of panic flashed in Hidekatsu's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. "Oh, well, with this young body, I've found that with proper exercise and diet, I can unleash greater strength."
Rimi observed Hidekatsu's reaction and became even more convinced that he was not an ordinary student.
After the party ended, Hidekatsu left the crowd and walked into the night. His steps were firm, and his destination clear. He arrived at a secluded corner outside the school, and his figure disappeared into the darkness.
Hidekatsu's mysterious behavior made Izumi Shinichi and Murano Rimi unable to feel at ease. After the evening banquet, the campus returned to calm, but the hearts of the two were as turbulent as the night sky.
"We need to come up with a solution. We can't let Hidekatsu continue to hide his true identity." Shinichi's eyes flashed with determination, his hands clenched, deep in thought.
Rimi nodded, her eyes also showing concern. "But we need to be careful. Hidekatsu's power is not to be underestimated. His incredible ability, if it's really a parasite..."
Two people walked slowly in the moonlight, discussing their strategy. At that moment, in a corner of the school, Righty suddenly woke up from his slumber, a hint of urgency on Izumi Kazuyuki's face. "Shinichi, I sense a strong threat. Hidekatsu, he..."
"Dad, I know. We are discussing our strategy," Shinichi interrupted Righty, his gaze becoming even more serious.
Rimi gently supported Shinichi on the shoulder, giving him comfort and support. Her Right foot, Mi, also kept a vigilant watch on their surroundings, ready to respond to any potential threats.
At that moment, a dark figure swiftly approached - it was Hidekatsu. A faint smile graced his face, but his eyes shimmered with an unusual light.
"Izumi Shinichi, Murano Rimi, what are you doing here?" Hidekatsu's voice was calm and deep.
Shinichi responded cautiously, "Hidekatsu, why are you out so late at night? What are you doing?"
Hidekatsu smiled and said, "I'm just here for a walk and to think about some things. What about you? It seems like you're discussing something important."
Rimi interjected, "Yes, we're discussing how to make the school better. Hidekatsu, you seem very concerned about us."
Hidekatsu's expression changed slightly as he approached, "Of course I care, after all, we are all part of this school. Have you noticed that the nights at this school are especially beautiful?"
Shinichi and Rimi exchanged a glance, feeling a sense of alarm. They knew that every word from Hidekatsu could potentially hold a deeper meaning, and they had to be careful in their response.
Suddenly, Hidekatsu's gaze became stern. "Shinichi, Rimi, I know you suspect me. But I want to tell you, I am not your enemy. I just want to find my own answers."
Shinichi responded coldly, "If that's true, then why hide your true identity? Why act mysteriously at night?"
Hidekatsu fell silent for a moment, then said, "The world is not as simple as you imagine, Shinichi. Some things, if I were to tell you now, would only put you in greater danger."
Before the words had even finished, Hidekatsu's figure suddenly became blurry and disappeared into the night.
The evening breeze is sharp as a knife, and the shadows of the trees on the campus intertwine. Everything under the moonlight is shrouded in a mysterious and unpredictable atmosphere. Hidekatsu disappears into the darkness, leaving Izumi Shinichi and Murano Rimi deeply contemplating in place.
Shinichi's brows furrowed, his gaze revealing determination and resolve. " Rimi, we can't just let Hidekatsu go like this. He's too dangerous, but we need more evidence, we need to uncover his true intentions."
Rimi felt equally heavy-hearted, looking at Shinichi with concern. "I know, Shinichi. But how can we get close to him without arousing his suspicion? We're not even sure if he's already aware of our suspicions."
Shinichi thought for a moment, then decided, "We need to split up. I will try to find out Hidekatsu's whereabouts, while you stay on campus and keep an eye on his every move."
Rimi nodded. She knew it was the only way, despite the great danger. "Then we must be careful not to let him notice."
At that moment, Shinichi's Righty woke up and pointed in a direction. Hidekatsu was heading towards the west side of the campus.
"It looks like this is an opportunity," Shinichi said with a serious expression. He quickly moved towards the north gate and said to Rimi, "You and Mi haven't fully merged yet, and human speed is not fast. Remember to keep in touch no matter what happens. If I find anything, I will inform you immediately."
Rimi nodded, a determined glint in her eyes. She knew that this night might change their destiny.
