[Kyousuke's pov of the new student, who stands before the class, smiling and
 saluting smartly.  It is the girl who walked through the park.  Unlike the
 other girls in the class, she wears a coat and tie over her skirt.  Perhaps
 she hasn't had time to buy the Kouryou uniform yet.]

 Komatsu and Hatta sit in the desks in front of and behind him and watch.  A
