Synopsis

The bus hummed with the quiet anticipation of a journey to Hatoyama Ranch. Inside, Kobayashi-sensei and Wakasa-sensei were accompanied by a group of students – Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Haibara – eager to begin their care of the new chickens. Sharing the ride were Hitsuka Junya, Nanbu Takashi, and Kano Shogo, their destination the same, though their purpose seemed more investigative than pastoral. Rumors hinted at information gathering and research, adding a layer of intrigue to the trip.
