[color=c5c1b9]"Ah, I'm sorry. It is rude of me to suspect your classmates. I just hope we can continue to keep each other safe, now that we know about these battles..."[/color]

Hiroko giggled on the inside, though it only translated to the surface as a faint smile.  That Kyogi wanted to be so polite made her happy.  Indeed, she was the class representative and didn't want to suspect any of the students she represented; but ruling out potential dangers for her selfish wish would only endanger them both.  Reaching up to straighten her glasses (a gesture she used often to communicate that she was contemplating), Hiroko answered her ally as best she could.  [color=yellow]"If it is anyone I know, the 'clumsy one' would be Saihara-san.  He does have a ring, but... Well, I can't see him as being someone dangerous.  On purpose, at least."[/color]

There was a lot to think over.  There was even more that they needed to talk over, but there simply wasn't time at present.  [color=yellow]"I have to go see Nishikii-sensei right now--I think he learned something about the rings--but we do need to discuss.  Genjitsu-san, may we walk home together after school?"[/color]  That would give them plenty of time to converse, hopefully without interruption.
