คำสารภาพคือจุดเริ่มของเกมลงโทษ — 第二章 如果这不是游戏

Chapter 2: If This Isn’t a Game

The class organized Truth or Dare again. Aoi held the spinner down.

“We’re not spinning today.” She looked at Nanjo. “Terms updated. I like you. This isn’t a game.”

The classroom was quiet for one second. Then someone started cheering. Nanjo did not say “Oh.” He only folded the slip of paper with the copied rules and put it at the very bottom of his pencil case.

“Accepted.” This time he said the word in full.

After school, his place at the gate moved from a little to the left to dead center. When Aoi walked over, she no longer thought of going around on the right.
