The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy means you can fight a hundred battles without danger - Asami Endo felt that as an emotional strategist, she needed to find out the situation and see what the relationship between Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko and Jiang Xia was.
Or, at least find out which one of them Jiang Xia saw before and suddenly became happy...
After Asami Endo secretly made up her mind, she did not go directly. Instead, she walked lightly and walked quietly to the side.
A minute later, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko turned the corner of the shelf and "encountered" Endo Asami coming out from the other side.
Both sides felt familiar to each other. After a pause, Asami Endo smiled and said, "I remember you, um... Xiaolan and Sonoko? Long time no see."
"Ms. Asami!" Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan were a little excited. Asami Endo, a beautiful, cheerful person with good grades and keen on club activities, was considered a figure of the previous generation in the eyes of students. Now they suddenly found that such a person actually remembered them.
, both of them were a little flattered.
Asami Endo discovered this to her surprise, and took the opportunity to invite them to the mystery party tomorrow.
He also mentioned that Jiang Xia would also come.
During the conversation, the senior sister carefully observed the expressions of the two people, but saw that Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko looked purely happy, and neither of them showed any alertness that "a beautiful woman invited Jiang Xia to play together"... Well, this shows that they should
She's not Jiang Xia's undisclosed girlfriend. Or she's very, very, very confident and doesn't worry about Jiang Xia being snatched away.
...There are many doubts and further observation is needed.
Asami Endo then invited them to have dinner together.
The two innocent high school girls happily agreed and asked Asami Endo to wait while they went to store the large and small bags of things in their hands.
The senior sister smiled and nodded, waiting where she was, watching them go away.
A minute later, Asami Endo's phone rang and she received Jiang Xia's GuGu notice.
Senior sister: "..."
Just as the two school girls left, she turned around and received a text message from Jiang Xia. Such a coincidence... It must have been when Mao Lilan or Suzuki Sonoko were going to store their luggage, and they couldn't help but tell Jiang Xia that they had also received an invitation.
Then Jiang Xia immediately decided not to attend.
Thinking of this, Asami Endo was startled.
This, this is different from what she imagined, "Jiang Xia has a deep love for Mao Lilan or Suzuki Sonoko, and all his attention is on her"! If this is the case, then Jiang Xia should attend the party with the girl he likes, shouldn't Jiang Xia be more
happy.
But now...
Asami Endo suddenly remembered a saying:
It is said that when the clever Neptune sees fish that he has not soaked yet gathered together, he will avoid their sharp edges and refuse to go into the fish pond if he is not sure...
At this time, thinking of the pair of long legs passing by on the football field and Jiang Xia's focused gaze at that time, Asami Endo felt a thunderclap hit her heavenly spirit cap.
Could it be...did she accidentally step into someone else's fish pond?!
...As a theoretical king and a practical bronze, Asami Endo panicked for a second.
But soon I regained my composure on paper - can't rush to conclusions, observe, well, observe first...
A few minutes later, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko returned from storing their things.
As soon as the two people arrived at the meeting place, they saw Asami Endo looking at them with very complicated eyes, and they felt like they were looking at brothers in distress.
The two were stunned for a moment: "Sister Asami, what happened?"
"No, it's okay." Asami Endo came back to her senses, shook her head, and led them to the hotel.
Halfway through, she still couldn't hold it back and asked in a low voice: "Um, Jiang Xia... you seem to be very familiar with him. Can you tell me what kind of person he is."
When Suzuki Sonoko heard this topic, her eyes lit up and she nodded proudly: "Okay, okay! He..."
Just as she stood up, she suddenly stopped.
...Huh? Wait.
What do you want to do?!
…
Gunma Prefecture, Toyohaku Town.
Kudo Yukiko knocked on the door of the inner house.
Soon, the slightly old wooden door was pushed open, and a beautiful aunt came out from behind the door.
She has short, black and curly hair, and her narrow eyes look a bit philistine. The woman was obviously very happy when she saw Kudo Yukiko, a young girl. After saying hello to her, her eyes fell on Jiang Xia again, and she asked slightly in surprise.
:"This is?"
She thought it would be the two father and son from the Kudo family who were good at solving crimes.
"He's my neighbor's child!" Kudo Yukiko pulled Jiang Xia, who was standing behind her, and pushed her in front of Hiromi Niuchi as if showing off, "He's not as good at investigating cases as the two of my family..." She silently said "
"Asshole" swallowed back the not-so-nice word, "...cough, no worse than those two reasoning madmen!"
"Haha, that's it." Hiromi Nouchi nodded enthusiastically, but she felt a little vaguely disappointed in her heart. She usually doesn't pay attention to case news and doesn't know much about detectives. In the unknown field of investigation, she is more interested.
Trust acquaintances.
Now that the acquaintance who is good at solving crimes is gone, and a stranger who looks very young suddenly comes, Hiromi Hinuchi's first reaction is - Yukiko is still as unreliable as before.
However, as an adult, she tried her best not to show disappointment and opened the door with a smile: "You must be tired from running so far. Come in and sit down first."
Several people entered the yard and walked on the path strewn with fallen leaves.
Kudo Yukiko was even more anxious than the client. She poked and asked, "What exactly are you asking me to investigate? It's mysterious. You can tell me now."
"Well..." Hiromi Hiromi looked around and saw that there was no one else, so she lowered her voice and said, "Actually, it's my uncle's business."
Jiang Xia followed them through the vast Japanese-style courtyard while listening to Hiromi Minuchi talk about her commission.
The Heiuchi family is a well-known local wealthy family. Last month, the father of the Heiuchi family, Hiromi Heiuchi, passed away and left a large inheritance.
The will has not yet been released.
According to the predictions of the living people, the people who can share the inheritance include the daughter and son of the patriarch, the second wife who is only two years older than the patriarch's daughter, and the patriarch's brother who went to Brazil more than thirty years ago.
The more people there are, the less money they get. In particular, the leader of the Binnei clan seems to pay special attention to his younger brother who is far away from home. When distributing the inheritance, he may be biased.
Therefore, in the eyes of others, this "Uncle of the Adopted Household", who disappeared for a long time and suddenly rushed back home from Brazil not long ago, is the most annoying person.
And because Niuchi's foster brother hasn't come back for more than thirty years, now Niuchi Guangmei and the others suspect that the foster uncle in the family is simply a fake, so they want to find a detective to expose his true identity.
