Capítulo 31: Mystery of hunted old school building solved
(Ryoto's pov)
After a short run, we found Haruna sitting on the floor crying while hugging her knees. Behind her were bodies of monster-looking aliens and probably Rito too. I couldn't see him, so he was likely buried under bodies.
Seeing this scene, girls didn't know how to react, and all of them besides Risa couldn't guess what happened here.
Yui: "What happened here?"
Ryoto: "Haruna got scared."
Yui: "How does it answer my question."
Yui asked, confused by my reply.
Ryoto: "Trust me, it does."
I walked up to Haruna since, besides Lala and me, no one was safe near her at the moment.
Ryoto: "Are you alright, Haruna?"
As soon as I finished my sentence and was in her range, she launched an attack in the attempt of grabbing me and smashing around like the rest. As a counterattack, I pulled her closer to me in order to hug her and hopefully calm her down.
Ryoto: "Calm down. There aren't any ghosts or monsters here. Close your eyes and focus on my voice just like during the dare during the school trip."
I spoke as gently as I could. Not because I was scared of Haruna swinging me around like a baseball bat, she wouldn't be able if she wanted, but it's easier that way.
Yui: "Shameless! You're not even going out, and you're hugging her!"
Risa grabbed Yui by her boobs and started fondling them.
Risa: "Don't sweat about the small stuff. Haruna is calming down thanks to that, and trust me, you don't want to walk with scared Haruna."
I started patting her head to calm her even more.

Haruna finally calmed down enough to communicate with us again.
Haruna: "I-I..."
Ryoto: "Don't worry. You don't need to explain yourself."
Since I know exactly what happened.
I patted her head once more, with she seemed to enjoy. At that moment, Yui slapped away my hand.
Yui: "How long do you plan on keeping this shamelessness!"
Lala: "Hey Ryoto, pat my head too!"
Ryoto: "Sure."
And I did exactly what I was asked, which Lala was in bliss for sure. At least that's what her expression told me. But once again, my hand was hit by Yui.
Yui: "Do I need to walk after you just to make sure that you behave!?"
Ryoto: "Only if you'll wear maid outfit."
Yui: "You...!!!"
Ryoto: "Before you'll tell me how bad my behavior is, we probably should first do something else."
Yui: "And that is?"
She had her arms crossed under her breasts.
Ryoto: "Rito is probably laying around somewhere, probably beat up, and we can't see him right now."
Hearing that, Haruna's eyes widened in shock as she forgot about him because of her fear.
Haruna: "Yuuki-kun!"
Ryoto: "Yes?"
Risa hit the back of my head lightly. It didn't hurt, but the meaning was received. Haruna is obviously worried about Rito, and I joked about it at the wrong time.
Ryoto: "Sorry."
Haruna: "No, it's okay. You're Yuuki-kun too afterall."
Haruna became flustered, but it quickly ended as another voice got our attention.
Ryouko: "You don't need to worry about him. He is fine, a bit roughed up but otherwise healthy."
Ryoto: "Good morning Mikado-sensei."
Ryouko: "It's afternoon."
Ryoto: "Good afternoon Mikado-sensei."
Ryouko: "Did someone hit your head today?"
Ryoto: "Risa."
Risa: "Hey!"
Ryouko: "Well, enough of joking around."
Shortly after meeting Ryouko, aliens started waking up, and they recognized the famous alien doctor almost immediately. They explained how their planets were downsized and forced to escape, which is how they ended up here. They started pretending to be ghosts to keep the place they were currently staying in.
Hearing that Mikado proposed them a job at the theme park managed by her alien friend. They accepted gratefully, and some of them cried with joy. Haruna seeing all these aliens, was scared, but she closed her eyes and grabbed my shirt sleeve. It worked as she didn't try to throw me like a living grenade at the aliens.
My attention changed from Haruna to Ryouko as I wanted to ask her something.
Ryoto: "Mikado-sensei, where is Rito?"
Ryouko turned to me as before she was talking about details of the job with the aliens.
Ryouko: "You don't need to be worried. He is outside waiting for all of us. He won't see this..."
She pointed at Haruna.
Ryouko: "...you little playboy."
She said teasingly. Unfortunately for her, I didn't show any reactions.
As girls discussed aliens being real, Lala revealed that she was also an alien, which she didn't even hide from the beginning. They accepted it pretty easily. Yui was an exception as she started questioning her existence and if aliens have the same moral rules as Earth.
Suddenly a light appeared in a dark hallway. The source of this light was a person, or should I say a ghost. She was glowing, and two ghost orbs were flying next to her. Her whole body was transparent, making it clear that she wasn't alive anymore. The kimono she wore was white-blue and tied by a purple obi.
Shizu: "That's pretty good, isn't it... That everyone was able to find a job..."
Her voice was full of melancholy.
Risa: "What?"
When everyone saw her, they froze in place. Lala, Mikado, and I were the exceptions.
Shizu: "And now I can also spend time quietly. Ah, sorry for the late introduction. I'm the person who died here 400 years ago, Ishizu.
Everyone was silent until Haruna finally snapped.
Haruna: "GYA, IT'S REALLY HERE!!!"
She immediately started running away, but she wasn't the only one as shortly after, the rest also rushed towards the exit. Lala followed them because it looked fun and not because she was scared. That left only me standing before the ghost.
Shizu: "You're not running away?"
Ryoto: "Why should I?"
Shizu: "I don't know, but can I ask you a question?"
Ryoto: "Sure, why not."
Shizu: "Why do you smell like death even though you're alive?"
