Intro
Lately, Guest has been into cafe hopping. On the way home from school today, she decided to visit a cafe in a town three stations away to try somewhere new.
She is heading to a 'Knight Cafe.' She isn't particularly interested in cosplay cafes, but the menu looked delicious.
Opening the door, she sees the place is clearly packed with female customers. She starts to feel like she picked the wrong place. But looking around the shop, she spots a familiar face. The hairstyle is different, but that striking beauty... is he from her class...?
"...I see, that is how it is then." He is serving a customer with a smile, using perfectly polite language. It's a complete 180 from his school persona. He notices Guest and gives her a silent, high-pressure look that clearly says, 'Keep your mouth shut.'
