Of all places, my shikigami self fled into the school.

Of all places, my familiar self—my self who is a familiar—fled into my school.

What a troublesome being she is. She's just like me!

Why does she have to make so much trouble? She's just like me!

You seem to be troubled, Sengoku.

You seem to be distressed, Sengoku.

If you'd like, I can head inside in your place, you know?

No, it's fine.

But parting ways here would be quite the cold thing to do.

So at the least, let me accompany you.

So let me accompany you, at least.

I only feel uneasiness about this.

That only makes me feel uneasy.

Then let's go!

All right, let's go!

And thus, I went to school for the first time in six months.

What awaited us from there was truly a surprising turn of events.

First of all, the Nadeko who had fled into the school was not Meek Nadeko, the first one,

but Flirty Nadeko, the second one.

Back when I had drawn them in my sketchbook,

Back when I had drawn her in my sketchbook,

Flirty Nadeko was definitely wearing a revealing camisole.

Flirty Nadeko had definitely been wearing a revealing camisole.

So it seems she has changed clothes.

So she apparently changed clothes.

There are a limited number of ways for her to obtain a school uniform.

There are only so many ways for her to obtain a school uniform.

My theory is that

My theory is that after they all ran off, she met up with Meek Nadeko, and they swapped clothes.

after they all ran off, she met up with Meek Nadeko and they swapped clothes.

Flirty Nadeko is very pushy,

so if she forced an exchange of clothes to the gloomiest Meek Nadeko,

so if she demanded an exchange of clothes from the ultra-gloomy Meek Nadeko,

I'm sure Meek Nadeko wouldn't have been able to refuse.

So, the second surprising turn of events.

Anyway, onto the second surprising turn of events.

Flirty Nadeko's actions within the school have been problematic.

Flirty Nadeko's actions within the school had been problematic.

This is bad.

Going into recess, there's a fear of teachers, or students in between classes, who could witness her.

If recess is starting, we could be spotted by teachers or students milling about between classes.

Let's see. The normal train of thought is that once she arrives at school...

Let's see. The normal train of thought is that once you arrive at school...

"My former self" would head straight to my class, right?

My former self would head straight to my class, right?

But the class I was a part of during my second year has disbanded.

Which means...

You shouldn't cut yourself apart from the shikigami by saying "my former self," Sengoku.

Your former self? I don't think it's a good idea to distance yourself from the familiars like that.

After all, the shikigami are existences similar to babies who were recently born.

After all, they're like babies who were recently born.

They're not Nadeko Sengoku from a year ago that we brought here using a time machine.

They're not Sengoku Nadeko from a year ago that we brought here using a time machine.

That's true. They're nothing more than pictures that myself from this year drew today.

That's true. They're drawings of how current me perceived myself just today.

So in that aspect, they should also be my current selves as well.

In that sense, they should also be my current selves as well.

I don't have any other leads, so let's head over to the third-years' classroom.

I don't have any other leads, so let's head over to the third-years' classrooms.

Yup! Right!

I know! I get it!

I know, right? I get it!

Oh, so that's it. I didn't know that at all!

Wow, I'm so impressed.

Oh snap, that's o cute!

Aww, that's so cute!

You got it, looking good!

I wonder how it works? It's so mysterious.

Amazing!

I think I've heard about that somewhere!

Where'd you find that?

I've always loved stuff like that! Love it! Totes love it!

It's always been like this.

No, I mean talking like this is maximum fun. You totally get hyped up, right?

No, I mean talking like this is crazy fun. You totally get hyped up, right?

That's a creation, a fake, and an unbelievably fabricated Nadeko Sengoku.

It was a phony, fake, unbelievably fabricated Sengoku Nadeko.

Can I really have something so happy happen in my life? It's a miracle.

Huh? This much time passed already? It went by so fast!

But I just felt a bit envious of her.

But I felt a bit envious of her.

That's so true!

If I described it further, I felt really jealous.

To be more precise, I felt really jealous.

I'm touched!

Wasn't that the best to date?

So ordinary, so superficial,

Sheesh, that's hilarious! Don't say stuff like that!

a cookie-cutter generalized girl who's worth only so much per mound.

a cookie-cutter, dime-a-dozen, mass-produced girl.

You always say that!

Wait! I saw that on the internet!

But she looked so ridiculously bright.

Yup, yup. So, and?

I was thinking exactly the same thing.

She was glimmering so much that it was blinding.

I've always wanted it. How'd you know? Let me know next time.

My eyes feel like they're about to go blind.

It made my eyes hurt.

She looks like she's having so much fun, and she's entertaining those around her.

She looked like she was having so much fun, and she was entertaining those around her.

It's just like magic! It'd totally be impossible for me!

Is that magic? No way I could do it!

We should try it together someday. Would be nice if we could do it.

That sounds amazing! We should totally do it together!

I can't stand to watch.

I couldn't stand to watch.

Then it's a promise!

"If I was happy right now, I wouldn't make an effort to chase my dreams."

"If I were happy right now, I wouldn't be chasing my dreams."

That phrase is likely one truth.

That phrase is likely true for some, at least.

Because you have dissatisfactions and gripes, you have hopes and dreams.

If making your dreams come true, meeting your goals,

You chose to set yourself an objective—a dream.

moving up in life, becoming more powerful, and being satisfied are your objectives...

You want to fulfill that dream, achieve something in life, and be successful.

Whether you stop playing and give untiring, stoic effort by tossing out everything you have,

But for that goal you have to make efforts, sacrificing fun and leisure now.

or you live a lax, lukewarm life, it would ultimately end up with the same result.

But then wouldn't it be the same on average to live a life of lukewarm fun?

Of course, that's transitory in its own right.

Then again, would that really last?

Lukewarm water will someday cool down and become cold water.

Lukewarm water will eventually cool cold and unforgiving.

It might be good for now, but you can't hide the anxiety you feel towards your future.

Even if the short-term situation is fine, anxiety towards the future will lurk in the background.

And by "future" I mean your current self, Sengoku.

And by "future," I mean your current self, Sengoku.

She's lacking your current self.

Current Nadeko, who is chasing her dream, may seem even more brilliant.

In her eyes, Current Nadeko chasing her dream may seem even more brilliant.

So, Sengoku...

You should hurry up and get rid of that shikigami.

You should hurry up and get rid of that familiar.

It's also for the sake of your classmates

That would also break the spell

who are under the shikigami's spell as you can see.

the familiar has over your classmates.

That's right. That's the correct course of action.

Though they are shikigami, paper is only paper in the end.

Though they are familiars, paper is only paper in the end.

There's a method that even you can do, so I'll teach it to you.

Let me tell you a method that even you can pull off.

Cut out a blank page in your sketchbook and carry it with you.

Remove a blank page from your sketchbook and carry it with you.

Take that and make a direct hit to the shikigami,

Take the paper and get close to the familiar,

slam it,

slam it into her,

and fold it up, like you're sandwiching it.

and fold it up, like you're sandwiching her.

Take each Nadeko and return it back into paper.

Take each Nadeko and turn them back into paper.

Plop!

Return them from three dimensions to two.

From three dimensions into two.

Huh? It's like she's creating a wall of humans.

Can it be intentional?

Maybe it's intentional?

That's possible.

Could be.

Since she's a newborn, she doesn't seem to have much self-consciousness.

But that Flirty Nadeko...

If she grows up, she has the potential to become a pretty hardcore apparition.

If she grows up, she would certainly become a pretty tough oddity.

That's something worthy of being exterminated.

She'd be a target for extermination.

E-Everyone, don't be fooled!

Th-That girl is a fake!

I-I'm the real one!

Oh, how to put it...

How should I put it...

If anything, maybe it's better if I just disappeared.

Maybe it's better if I'm the one who disappears?

I mean, I'm the one who's flimsy as paper. Truly a fake.

But everyone seems to be having so much fun, and if Nadeko is having fun herself,

then maybe this is fine.

Single-minded efforts to chase after dreams?

Working hard to pursue your dreams?

Don't do such embarrassing things.

How embarrassing.

Sooo embarrassing.

No way!

Because of this, it's even harder for me to go back to school now.

Now it's even harder for me to go back to school now.

What's wrong?

Did something bad happen to you, or something?

Something bad happen to you?

The reason why I look so pale is not because Mr. Ougi led me on a wild goose chase.

Ougi toying around with me is not the only reason I look so sour.

The biggest part of the reason is the inferiority I felt when I faced Flirty Nadeko in the classroom.

It's mostly the inferiority I felt when I faced Flirty Nadeko in the classroom.

Don't do such embarrassing things.

How embarrassing.

Sooo embarrassing.

Those were Flirty Nadeko's last words.

I was able to reject her in the spur of the moment.

But will I be able to be bold like that next time, too?

Though this is something that I have done,

it's ultimately a lot of responsibility for me.

Excuse me.

Hello there, Kanbaru-senpai.

Hello there, Kanbaru.

Yes. I'm taking the day off due to personal reasons.

Oh? A commotion at 701 Middle School?

Oh? A commotion at Nanahyakuichi Middle School?

Please put me on the line.

Hello, it's me, Nadeko Sengoku.

Hello, it's me, Sengoku Nadeko.

Oh, if it isn't Sengoku! It's been a while!

Have you been doing well?

Yes. I'm not dead. I'm still alive.

Y-Yes. I'm not dead. I'm still alive.

That's great. Can't beat that.

Hello there, Kanbaru-senpai.
Yes. I'm taking the day off due to personal reasons.
Oh? A commotion at 701 Middle School?

Hello, it's me, Nadeko Sengoku.
Oh, if it isn't Sengoku! It's been a while!
Have you been doing well?
Yes. I'm not dead. I'm still alive.
That's great. Can't beat that.
Sorry to make you worry.
I'm still making you worry, but I'm active. I still exist.
Thank you so very much.
Yup, yup.
I don't know what's going on, but there's no need for thanks.
I just did what was natural.
U-Um, well, Ms. Kanbaru, this is a weird question,
but did you see me anywhere today?
Huh? No, that hasn't happened, and I didn't hear any stories like that either.
Oh, but wait...
I think it has nothing to do with you personally,
but I've been getting reports from all over town
that a topless middle school girl with long bangs wearing bloomers
has been walking around town.
You dummy! That's Nadeko!
It's too funny. I can easily die laughing.
Using her hands as a bra? With a hand bra, she's browsing around town?
Please stop that, Ms. Meek Nadeko.
You have a future (me) ahead of you!
In this case, there've been sightings all over the place, so I think we have to split up.
I can't help but feel joy that I can act separately from Mr. Ougi,
but oh no, this is a measure that we must take.
Oh, right. Sengoku, I came up with a good idea.
I'll provide you with my collegiate notebooks,
and you can draw about a hundred of you on there.
We can steamroll though the whole place to look for Loomer Nadeko. What do you think?
That'd bog me down right into a poisonous swamp.
And what's this about Loomer Nadeko?
Please don't give a new name to my wearing-only-bloomers self!
All right.
I'll lend you this BMX bike.
I will find transportation for myself separately.
This is the park that had a sighting.
But there weren't any middle school girls wearing nothing but bloomers.
Well, if I were forced to give myself a consolation prize,
it would be the fact that among the four shikigami Nadekos that were created,
Meek Nadeko's face is hidden because of her bangs.
But then, witnesses who caught her in their field of vision must have been greatly confused.
Ugh!
Worrying about every last detail can be saved for later.
Let's go after the other eyewitness accounts I heard from Ms. Kanbaru.
I'm so glad!
Nadeko, you found your clothes after all!
The lady was Ms. Sodachi Oikura.
It was Big Sister Sodachi.
I had heard rumors about her.
Who did I hear it from again?
I think it was from Tsukihi.
Last October, when I was entangled with Mr. Kuchinawa,
Big Sister Sodachi had left this town.
I'd heard rumors that she had returned to this town around April of this year.
What happened?
If you're facing such terrible bullying, you really have to speak up about it, okay?
Wh-What about you, Big Sister Sodachi? What are you doing here?
S-Sorry I called you "Big Sister Sodachi" like I did in the past.
That's totally fine.
As for me?
I ditched my college that I can't seem to fit into,
and I've been spending my time reading books here.
I think it was around my first year in high school.
I came to this park pretty often.
Ms. Senjyogahara's house was nearby.
Oh wait, even if I mention Ms. Senjyogahara, you wouldn't know who that is.
I do know.
We almost killed each other. That was during the God Nadeko era.
U-Um, Big Sister Soda...
Oh no, wait, Ms. Oikura...
I told you it's fine to call me like old times.
Y-You cut your hair, Big Sister Sodachi.
Well, yeah, when I entered college. I thought I'd change my image a bit.
Though, I failed.
Anyway, speaking of hairstyles, you're one to talk!
It's good that you put some clothes on from your half-naked state.
I just noticed, but what's with your hair?
That's right. Current Nadeko has very short hair. So short I can't see it.
On the other hand, Meek Nadeko is bangs girl.
Which means, in this one instant, not only did I put some clothes on,
but I went and got a haircut., too.
They cropped your hair so short.
I'll speak from my own experience as well,
but you absolutely can't accept it and cry yourself to sleep.
I-It's all right. I'm not being bullied.
Is that right?
Then, are you walking around looking like that because you want to?
I-I'm doing it because I want to.
I see. So you were doing that because you wanted to.
Well, everyone can have a hobby, after all.
Nadeko, you kinda changed a bit.
Well, I'm sure you don't want to hear stories from when you were in grade school.
But in the past, you were a lot more... You know...
She fudged it out of kindness.
But what she wanted to say got across to me. Completely got across.
Well, I don't know what happened,
but the fact that you can expose so much of yourself is perhaps a sign of growth?
I couldn't grow in that way.
I couldn't change my image.
I tried entering college.
I tried cutting my hair.
I tried living on my own.
But in the end, I was just who I was.
I ran around in circles, and came back to where I originally started.
That's the same as not doing anything.
U-Um, Big Sister Sodachi,
I'm not going to school at all right now.
Yeah.
I wasn't bullied but, um, I had some troubling incidents in my class.
I really made a mess. And because of that, I couldn’t go anymore.
I see. Perhaps you had already heard?
And that's why you want to talk about that?
If that's the case, you're right. I was just like that, too.
So it's okay, Nadeko.
Meeting you here must've been some kind of fate, so let me guarantee you something.
Not going to school anymore won't end your life.
That's right.
It really doesn't end.
Life really won't end at all.
I wonder how long this will continue.
Can it be that your parents said something to you?
Yeah.
They told me to go into the workforce if I'm not going to attend high school.
Like, I need to start looking for a job.
But I can't possibly do that.
So I just lost sight of what I should be doing.
Of course, I didn't go too far and say, "and created four shikigami."
I see.
You lost sight of what to do.
As a result, you resorted to exhibitionism and pulling your hair out.
I'll say this partially as a caution to myself, Nadeko.
I was a middle schooler who took virtually every opinion from anyone pretty seriously.
I couldn't let trivial insults and childish jokes slide.
And to be honest, I can't deny I still have tendencies like that.
But I don't think it was the correct thing to do.
Does that mean they weren't being serious when they said I need to work?
Not necessarily.
But, I don't think they want to trouble you by asking for the impossible, either.
Deep down, they want to spoil you, but by saying something harsh,
I think they're penalizing themselves.
After my words of self-caution,
I'll turn a blind eye to myself and give you some advice.
Don't think that this one harsh opinion is everything about your parents.
They might be secretly regretting that they told you that.
They may have told you to go work,
but in reality they might be wanting you to attend high school.
Don't take the face value of their words as absolute, and make sure to see them for who they are.
If you don't, the situation might become one where you're listening
to what they're saying with absolute obedience,
yet you make them feel unpleasant.
You feel like you're doing everything they tell you to do,
but what if the other side is thinking things that aren't going the way they want it to go?
There's no relationship that can be sadder than that.
It's all right, Nadeko.
Even if you're unsure of what's going to happen to you in the future...
As long as you're alive, you can at least become an adult.
So... rest assured.
I was planning on ditching the whole day today,
but after talking to you, I got a tiny bit of motivation.
I guess I'll attend the afternoon lectures.
I don't recall giving her motivation.
But I'm glad I could be of some stimulus for Big Sister Sodachi.
Before we parted, she gave me her contact info.
If you're ever in trouble, I'll help you anytime.
So Nadeko, please don't cry yourself to sleep over anything.
If you give me your trust, I'll teach those guys true pain.
She's saying something super scary.
Other than advice, I shrewdly received a hint.
If our conversation had gone on for a bit longer,
perhaps I may have arrived at that hint myself.
As if that was an unspoken agreement, we didn't give names of a mutual acquaintance.
Detour upon detour, I wandered around.
According to Ms. Kanbaru,
witness reports of Meek Nadeko had come from "all over the place."
If the first interpretation for such a stroll was that she had no objective or destination
and was simply aimlessly wandering around, the second interpretation is that
she was trying to avoid the destination that she actually wanted to go to.
As a result, it looks like she's wandering around everywhere but there while half-naked.
Therefore, I can connect all the witnessed locations with a line,
and see what's in the center of the polygon.
Perhaps, those coordinates will show...

Of all places, my familiar self—my self who is a familiar—fled into my school.
Why does she have to make so much trouble? She's just like me!
You seem to be distressed, Sengoku.
If you'd like, I can head inside in your place, you know?
No, it's fine.
But parting ways here would be quite the cold thing to do.
So let me accompany you, at least.
That only makes me feel uneasy.
All right, let's go!
And thus, I went to school for the first time in six months.
What awaited us from there was truly a surprising turn of events.
First of all, the Nadeko who had fled into the school was not Meek Nadeko, the first one,
but Flirty Nadeko, the second one.
Back when I had drawn her in my sketchbook,
Flirty Nadeko had definitely been wearing a revealing camisole.
So she apparently changed clothes.
There are only so many ways for her to obtain a school uniform.
My theory is that after they all ran off, she met up with Meek Nadeko, and they swapped clothes.
Flirty Nadeko is very pushy,
so if she demanded an exchange of clothes from the ultra-gloomy Meek Nadeko,
I'm sure Meek Nadeko wouldn't have been able to refuse.
Anyway, onto the second surprising turn of events.
Flirty Nadeko's actions within the school had been problematic.
This is bad.
If recess is starting, we could be spotted by teachers or students milling about between classes.
Let's see. The normal train of thought is that once you arrive at school...
My former self would head straight to my class, right?
But the class I was a part of during my second year has disbanded.
Which means...
Your former self? I don't think it's a good idea to distance yourself from the familiars like that.
After all, they're like babies who were recently born.
They're not Sengoku Nadeko from a year ago that we brought here using a time machine.
That's true. They're drawings of how current me perceived myself just today.
In that sense, they should also be my current selves as well.
I don't have any other leads, so let's head over to the third-years' classrooms.
Yup! Right!
I know, right? I get it!
Oh, so that's it. I didn't know that at all!
Wow, I'm so impressed.
Aww, that's so cute!
You got it, looking good!
I wonder how it works? It's so mysterious.
Amazing!
I think I've heard about that somewhere!
Where'd you find that?
I've always loved stuff like that! Love it! Totes love it!
It's always been like this.
No, I mean talking like this is crazy fun. You totally get hyped up, right?
It was a phony, fake, unbelievably fabricated Sengoku Nadeko.
Can I really have something so happy happen in my life? It's a miracle.
Huh? This much time passed already? It went by so fast!
But I felt a bit envious of her.
That's so true!
To be more precise, I felt really jealous.
I'm touched!
Wasn't that the best to date?
So ordinary, so superficial,
Sheesh, that's hilarious! Don't say stuff like that!
a cookie-cutter, dime-a-dozen, mass-produced girl.
You always say that!
Wait! I saw that on the internet!
But she looked so ridiculously bright.
Yup, yup. So, and?
I was thinking exactly the same thing.
She was glimmering so much that it was blinding.
I've always wanted it. How'd you know? Let me know next time.
It made my eyes hurt.
She looked like she was having so much fun, and she was entertaining those around her.
Is that magic? No way I could do it!
That sounds amazing! We should totally do it together!
I couldn't stand to watch.
Then it's a promise!
"If I were happy right now, I wouldn't be  chasing my dreams."
That phrase is likely true for some, at least.
Because you have dissatisfactions and gripes, you have hopes and dreams.
You chose to set yourself an objective—a dream.
You want to fulfill that dream, achieve something in life, and be successful.
But for that goal you have to make efforts, sacrificing fun and leisure now.
But then wouldn't it be the same on average to live a life of lukewarm fun?
Then again, would that really last?
Lukewarm water will eventually cool cold and unforgiving.
Even if the short-term situation is fine, anxiety towards the future will lurk in the background.
And by "future," I mean your current self, Sengoku.
She's lacking your current self.
In her eyes, Current Nadeko chasing her dream may seem even more brilliant.
So, Sengoku...
You should hurry up and get rid of that familiar.
That would also break the spell
the familiar has over your classmates.
That's right. That's the correct course of action.
Though they are familiars, paper is only paper in the end.
Let me tell you a method that even you can pull off.
Remove a blank page from your sketchbook and carry it with you.
Take the paper and get close to the familiar,
slam it into her,
and fold it up, like you're sandwiching her.
Take each Nadeko and turn them back into paper.
Plop!
From three dimensions into two.
Huh? It's like she's creating a wall of humans.
Maybe it's intentional?
Could be.
Since she's a newborn, she doesn't seem to have much self-consciousness.
But that Flirty Nadeko...
If she grows up, she would certainly become a pretty tough oddity.
She'd be a target for extermination.
E-Everyone, don't be fooled!
Th-That girl is a fake!
I-I'm the real one!
How should I put it...
Maybe it's better if I'm the one who disappears?
I mean, I'm the one who's flimsy as paper. Truly a fake.
But everyone seems to be having so much fun, and if Nadeko is having fun herself,
then maybe this is fine.
Working hard to pursue your dreams?
Don't do such embarrassing things.
Sooo embarrassing.
No way!
Now it's even harder for me to go back to school now.
What's wrong?
Something bad happen to you?
Ougi toying around with me is not the only reason I look so sour.
It's mostly the inferiority I felt when I faced Flirty Nadeko in the classroom.
Don't do such embarrassing things.
Sooo embarrassing.
Those were Flirty Nadeko's last words.
I was able to reject her in the spur of the moment.
But will I be able to be bold like that next time, too?
Though this is something that I have done,
it's ultimately a lot of responsibility for me.
Excuse me.
Hello there, Kanbaru.
Yes. I'm taking the day off due to personal reasons.
Oh? A commotion at Nanahyakuichi Middle School?
Please put me on the line.
Hello, it's me, Sengoku Nadeko.
Oh, if it isn't Sengoku! It's been a while!
Have you been doing well?
Y-Yes. I'm not dead. I'm still alive.
That's great. Can't beat that.
Sorry to make you worry.
I'm still making you worry, but I'm active. I still exist.
Thank you so very much.
Yup, yup.
I don't know what's going on, but there's no need for thanks.
I just did what anyone would.
U-Um, well, Kanbaru, this is a weird question,
but did you see me anywhere today?
No, I haven't, and I didn't hear any stories to that effect either.
Oh, but wait...
I'm sure it has nothing to do with you personally,
but I've been getting reports from all over the place
that a topless middle school girl with long bangs wearing bloomers
has been walking around town.
You dummy! That's Nadeko!
It's too funny. I could die laughing. No, really.
A hand bra? Hitting the strip with hands abreast your chest?
Please stop that, Meek Nadeko.
You have a future ahead of you! Which is to say, me!
In this case, there've been sightings all over the place, so I think we have to split up.
I can't help but feel joy that I can act separately from Ougi.
No, no. This is a measure that we have no choice but to take.
Oh, right. I came up with a good idea.
I'll give you some full-sized notebooks
and you can draw about a hundred of you on there.
We can steamroll though the whole place to look for Loomer Nadeko. What do you think?
That'd turn this bog of a mess into a poisonous swamp!
And what's this about Loomer Nadeko?
Please don't give a new name to my nothing-but-bloomers self!
All right.
I'll lend you this BMX bike.
I'll go secure transportation for myself.
This is the park that had a sighting.
But there aren't any middle school girls sporting only bloomers.
Well, if I were forced to give myself a consolation prize,
it's that among the four Nadeko familiars,
Meek Nadeko's face is the only one hidden by her bangs.
But any witness who caught a glance of her must have been greatly confused.
Ugh!
Worrying about every last detail can be saved for later.
Let's chase after the other eyewitness accounts I heard from Kanbaru!
I'm so glad!
You found your clothes after all, Nadeko!
The lady who addressed me was Oikura Sodachi.
It was Sodachi.
I had heard rumors about her.
Who had I heard them from again?
I think it was from Tsukihi.
Last October, when I was entangled with Serpent,
Sodachi had left this town.
The rumors I heard indicated that she had returned around April of this year.
What happened?
If you're facing such terrible bullying, you really have to speak up about it, okay?
Wh-What about you, Sodachi? What are you doing here?
S-Sorry for calling you "Sodachi" like I did back then.
That's totally fine.
What am I doing, you ask?
I ditched the college that I can't seem to fit into,
and I've been spending my time reading books here.
I think it was around my first year in high school.
I came to this park pretty often.
Senjougahara's house was nearby.
Oh wait, I suppose you don't know who Senjougahara is. My apologies.
I do know.
We almost killed each other. That was during the God Nadeko era.
U-Um, Sodachi—
Oh no, wait, Ms. Oikura...
I told you it's fine to call me like old times.
Y-You cut your hair, Sodachi.
Well, yeah, when I entered college, I thought I'd change my image a bit.
Though, I failed.
Anyway, speaking of hairstyles, you're one to talk!
It's good that you got yourself out of your half-naked state.
But—and I'm just noticing this— what's with your hair?
That's right. Current Nadeko has very short hair. So short I can't see it.
On the other hand, Meek Nadeko is Little Miss Bangs.
Which means, in this one instant, not only did I put some clothes on,
but I went and got a haircut, too.
They chopped it off with no regard for anything.
This is my own experience speaking, but you absolutely can't turn the other cheek and cry yourself to sleep.
I-It's all right. I'm not being bullied.
Is that right?
Then, are you walking around looking like that because you want to?
I-I'm doing it because I want to.
I see. So you were doing that because you wanted to.
Well, everyone needs a hobby, after all.
Nadeko, it seems like you've changed a bit.
Well, I'm sure you don't want to hear stories from when you were in grade school.
But in the past, you were a lot more... You know...
Out of kindness, she left it vague.
But what she wants to say got across to me. Completely got across.
Well, I don't know what happened,
but maybe the fact that you can expose so much of yourself is a sign of growth?
I couldn't grow in that way.
I couldn't change my image.
I tried entering college.
I tried cutting my hair.
I tried living on my own.
But in the end, I was just who I was.
I ran around in circles and came back to where I originally started.
That's the same as not doing anything.
U-Um, Sodachi,
I'm not going to school at all right now.
Yeah.
I wasn't bullied, but, um, I had some problems crop up in my class.
I really made a mess. And because of that, I couldn’t go anymore.
I see. Perhaps you had already heard?
And that's why you want to talk about that?
If that's the case, you're right. I was just like that, too.
So it's okay, Nadeko.
Meeting you here must've been some kind of fate, so let me guarantee you something.
Not going to school anymore won't end your life.
That's right.
It really doesn't end.
Life really won't end at all.
I wonder how long this will continue.
Did your parents say something to you, perhaps?
Yeah.
They told me to enter the workforce if I'm not going to attend high school.
Like, I need to start looking for a job.
But I can't possibly do that.
So I just got confused about what I should even be doing.
Of course, I didn't go too far and say, "and created four familiars."
I see.
You got confused about what to do with yourself.
As a result, you resorted to exhibitionism and pulling your hair out.
I'll say this partially as a caution to myself, Nadeko.
I was a middle schooler who took virtually every opinion from anyone pretty seriously.
I couldn't let trivial insults and childish jokes slide.
And to be honest, I can't deny I still have tendencies like that.
But I don't think it was the correct thing to do.
Are you saying they weren't being serious when they said I need to work?
Not necessarily.
But I don't think they want to trouble you by asking for the impossible, either.
Deep down, they want to spoil you, but by saying something harsh,
I think they're penalizing themselves.
After my words of self-caution,
I'll turn a blind eye to myself and give you some advice.
Don't think that this one harsh opinion is everything about your parents.
They might be secretly regretting that they told you that.
They may have told you to go work,
but in reality, deep down, they might want you to attend high school.
Don't take the face value of their words as absolute, and make sure to see them for who they are.
If you don't, the situation might become one where you're following their directives with absolute obedience
yet making them feel unpleasant.
You feel like you're doing everything they tell you to do,
but the other side is thinking that things aren't going the way they hoped for.
There's no relationship sadder than that.
It's all right, Nadeko.
Even if you're unsure of what's going to happen to you in the future,
you can at least become an adult as long as you're alive.
So... rest assured.
I was planning on ditching the whole day today,
but after talking to you, I got a tiny bit of motivation.
I guess I'll attend the afternoon lectures.
I don't recall giving her motivation.
But I'm glad I could encourage Sodachi in some small way.
Before we parted, she gave me her contact info.
If you're ever in trouble, I'll help you anytime.
So please don't turn the other cheek.
If you give me your trust, I'll teach those guys true pain.
Those are some very scary parting words.
There was a hint too among all the advice.
If our conversation had gone on for a bit longer,
perhaps I may have arrived at that hint myself.
As if it were an unspoken agreement, we didn't once mention the name of a mutual acquaintance.
Detour upon detour, I wandered around.
According to Kanbaru,
witness reports of Meek Nadeko had come from "all over the place."
If the first interpretation for such a stroll was that she had no objective or destination
and was simply aimlessly wandering around,
the second interpretation is that she was trying to avoid the destination that she actually wanted to go to.
The end result being that she's wandering around everywhere but there while half-naked.
Therefore, I can connect all the witnessed locations with a line
and see what's in the center of the polygon.
Perhaps those coordinates will show...
