Hyouka - Volume 03 - The Kudryavka Sequence - Welcome to KANYA FESTA! (1)

I could describe Kami High's PE track suit colour as "asagi-iro" (light blue),
but that specific colour name would invoke memories of the legendary
Shinsengumi, so I guess "water blue" would do for now. Anyway, wearing
the water blue track suit, I headed towards the Geology Room. Entering the
Special Block, as I slowly climbed up the stairs towards the third floor, I
heard the sound of someone's slippers running from the corridor ahead.

"Oh! Mayaka-san!"
It was Chi-chan, waving her hand happily. As I was about to ask why she was
in such a hurry, she grabbed my wrist with her rather warm hands.
Speaking of which, we're on the stairs, so it was pretty dangerous,
"W, whoa! Chi-chan!"
Ignoring my protests, she began to spoke,
"Thank goodness, things would be much easier with your help. I'm not
confident doing it myself, you see. Will you come with me? Are you free
right now?"
With my help?
"Eh, hang on, just what is it that you want me to help you with?"
While she held on to my wrist with her right hand, in her left hand was an
anthology-like booklet. It wasn't a really expensive booklet as its stapler
binding was clearly visible. Anyway, I asked,
"What's that?"
As she turned it to show me its cover, I exclaimed,
"W, why on earth would you be holding this?!"
