Shiraishi nodded after hearing this. He actually knew how to protect the store manager's privacy, which is worthy of praise.
However, if this call is from a customer, it will delay a lot of things.
...No, it seems that he has no customers to call at all.
Shiraishi took the paper handed over by Butterfly Ninja and found a series of phone numbers written on it. Butterfly Ninja must have copied it down from the caller ID.
Thinking about the part-time job entrusted by Miyano Akemi, Shiraishi thought that another case was coming against him.
But after dialing back, he found that he seemed to have made a mistake.
"Hello, I'm Suzuki~" This voice was gentle and sweet, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but Shiraishi couldn't remember it for a moment. In addition, the sound of paper turning came from the microphone.
After a while, as if he had read the address book, the person opposite said "Oh": "Is it Shiraishi?"
"Hello, senior, it's me." Bai Shi slowly guessed who it was.
Although "Suzuki" is a common surname, so far in this world, Shiraishi has met only one person with the surname "Suzuki" - the squinty-eyed Shingo senior in the research room.
When he thought of the laboratory, Shiraishi took out the curriculum and checked it again.
There are no classes today.
"That's it, about the location of our club activities." Suzuki Ayako said:
"I originally planned to go to Kiyomizudera Temple, but a few days ago, my family happened to buy the mountain villa where "The Blue Kingdom" was filmed, so I wanted to change the party location there to surprise Chikako."
Shiraishi was so shocked by the words "I just happened to buy a villa" that he couldn't speak for several seconds... How many villas did you buy so that you could just happen to buy the attraction?
After this thought flashed through his mind, he slowly realized another thing - why did he join a club?
"Hello? Can you hear me?"
When she didn't get a response, Suzuki Ayako thought the signal was not good. She turned her head and glanced at the microphone and tapped it a few times.
"Oh, I can hear it. I just went to get a pen and wanted to write down the changes for fear of forgetting." Shiraishi responded casually.
When the Butterfly Ninja heard this, he found a pen and pushed it to his hand.
Bai Shi nodded and thanked her, then drew a piece of paper over.
…
In fact, it was nothing serious. Suzuki Ayako mainly wanted to confirm the wishes of the club members.
If someone disagrees with changing the location, the party will still be held near Kiyomizu Temple. If everyone agrees, then she will be responsible for the fare, food and accommodation along the way.
Of course Shiraishi had no objection to free travel and scenic spots in the mountains. After solving so many cases, it was just a good opportunity to relax.
...Although he also knew in his heart that almost every Suzuki family villa was involved in murder cases.
But we all have to work anyway, so instead of staying here, we might as well complete the task somewhere with a better scenery.
Hearing his agreement, Suzuki Ayako was also very happy. Only then did Shiraishi know that he was the last person to be asked, and he was the only one who didn't receive the call just now.
"I have put the round-trip ticket cost, detailed map, and schedule in the research room. It is on the public bookshelf on the left hand side as soon as you enter the door. The contents in the envelope are the same, so you can just grab one~
"
Everyone agreed. Suzuki Ayako was in a good mood. She smiled and said, "Well, see you next week."
Shiraishi hung up the phone, glanced at Butterfly Ninja who was holding his chin up and smiling, and then looked at the kitchen utensil cabinet that seemed to be a little empty. He stopped talking for a moment, but said nothing and returned to the room.
After washing up and throwing myself on the bed, the fatigue accumulated in the virtual world became stronger and stronger.
Shiraishi originally wanted to keep his eyes open and go to the task bar to draw a prize.
However, as soon as he turned on the light screen, he closed his eyes peacefully, deeply demonstrating what it means to fall asleep as soon as you touch the pillow.
There was a "bang" sound from the light screen that had not yet been turned off. The Q version assistant wore a pointed colorful hat and blew up a paper firework for Shiraishi.
She looked up and watched the screen full of colorful shredded paper falling to the ground. She was about to go through the process and applaud to liven up the atmosphere. However, when she looked outside the screen, she realized that the person who should be enjoying the performance had already fallen asleep.
"..."
The Q version assistant pushed the crooked top hat and sighed expressionlessly. A small blank round bubble appeared from her mouth and quickly dissipated.
After a while, she reached outside the screen and took out a broom, bent down and swept the scattered paper flowers into a neat little pile, then clapped her hands and turned off the light screen with satisfaction.
…
Shiraishi slept for two or three hours before opening his eyes again under the sunlight that penetrated the thin curtains, stretching and sitting up.
After waking up, he was usually confused for a few seconds. He slowly remembered what he was doing before going to bed.
Shiraishi reopened the light screen, opened the task bar, and looked at the three completed tasks above, feeling very comfortable.
A total of 100,000 yen was offered for the task of eliminating hidden dangers and naughty children in the haunted house.
Shiraishi watched the money being transferred to the balance, and opened the last item: [Liberating the wandering souls riddled with resentment].
This time, the rewards have become much larger.
【100,000 yen】
【[N]Memory Fragments】
【Coffee x5】
[Random props [click to draw]]
Shiraishi clicked on the last line.
The font scrolls quickly and gradually becomes blurry.
A few seconds later, under Shiraishi's gaze, it slowly froze——
