Matsuda Jinpei had been waiting in the baseball training field in the park, pacing back and forth for ten minutes but the summer ice cream and drink set offered by the three losers in the rock-paper-scissors game still didn't come. Curious about what they were doing, he had to take the initiative.

He had not taken a few steps when he noticed that the three people were dawdling there, not knowing what they were doing. It was not until he shouted that he noticed that there were two children beside them. He realized that he had seen them before when he got closer.

"Huh? Didn't you two meet back then?" Memories of the past came flooding back. Matsuda Jinpei's face darkened as he thought about how those two brats had given him and Fujiwara Yuu a strange reputation as bullies. He frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

Hmm? Jinpei Matsuda, who normally defuses bombs, should be able to fix faucets, right?

"Matsuda, you're just in time. You're the most professional at fixing faucets." Fujiwara Yuu moved aside to reveal the water pipe he had been blocking, which was constantly gushing out. He patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "If you don't fix it quickly, your ice cream will melt!"

"Huh? What am I supposed to do without repair tools?" Matsuda Jinpei scratched his head unhappily. No matter how capable he was, he couldn't fix the water pipe with his bare hands. He couldn't just stick his fist in to force it shut, that would be too difficult.

Akihara Kenji noticed that the little girl still had tears in her eyes. He could not help but squat down and pat the little boy's head, showing a handsome and bright smile:

"How can you make your girl cry?"

"I……"

The precocious little boy blushed and didn't know what to say. After his little secret was exposed, he was embarrassed to look at the girl's face. He also wanted to fix the water pipe, but he couldn't think of a suitable way.

"Hey, Jinpei-chan, give me the baseball in your hand. Maybe this will do the trick." Kenji Akihara stood up, stared at the broken water pipe, and hooked his finger at Jinpei Matsuda without turning his head.

Although Matsuda Jinpei was somewhat skeptical about the success of this method, he still threw the baseball to Akihara Kenji. The next second, Akihara placed the baseball directly on the broken faucet, successfully preventing the water from both pipes from merging and gushing out.

"Hehe, it seems that using this for a temporary rescue is quite good! Xiao Zhenping, you should call the tax bureau as soon as possible." Akihara Kenji shook his wet right hand, turned around with a smile and gave everyone a thumbs up.

"Huh? Why are you calling?"

Upon hearing this, the reliable Yin Dahang immediately found the contact information of the Water Affairs Bureau on his phone. With their help, he was able to find maintenance personnel available in the area and successfully arranged for them to come to the park for maintenance.

"Um, big brothers!"

"?"

After searching for a long time in the pocket of her pink coat, the little girl counted out six candies, spread them out on her palm, and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your help, big brothers. Please accept the candy. Mom told me to give back!"

Today's primary school students are really more sensible than some adults.

Everyone smiled at each other and took the strawberry-flavored candy. Fujiwara Yuu even squatted down and said:

"Thank you for the candy, kid. We'll treasure it. But next time you play hide-and-seek, don't hide in places like that. It's good to have a desire to win, but you have to control it. Understand?"

"Hmm! So, big brother, how can you reduce people's curiosity?" The little girl pointed at the little boy next to her and started to complain, "Shinichi is very curious and always disobeys the teacher to play detective games!"

The little boy frowned immediately after hearing this and said dissatisfiedly:

"Idiot! I want to be a detective as good as Sherlock Holmes, so curiosity is a necessary skill, okay? Without curiosity, I won't take action!"

Holmes, detective?

Fujiwara Yuu and others had never imagined that little boys these days would be so precocious and fall in love with Sherlock Holmes at this age? I really wonder if he can understand every word in "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes".

"Tsk, Shinichi is bragging again~"

"I'm not bragging!" The little boy glanced quickly at the six older brothers in front of him. Then, an idea struck him. He crossed his arms over his chest and said confidently, "I've seen through the identities of these older brothers a long time ago!"

"Identity?" The little girl was obviously fooled. She tilted her head and asked in confusion, "What identity?"

"They are all reserve police officers from the police academy, and it should be a police academy under the Metropolitan Police Department."

Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Yuu couldn't help but look down at his uniform. He didn't expect that the little boy was so smart. He could draw such a conclusion based on the information on the clothes. It was quite smart for a ten-year-old child.

"Hey? Big Brother, are you really reserve police officers?"

Akihara Kenji, who always had a friendly demeanor, blinked, obviously noticing the little boy's sneaky glances at the little girl's reaction. He understood something and smiled as he said,

"Yeah, your friends all predicted it right. You're really amazing! Who knows, you might become a real Sherlock Holmes in the future! I'm really looking forward to your growth, kiddo."

"Yes! I will definitely practice hard!"

"Don't be too curious during the practice, otherwise you will be unlucky." Fūya Ling gave a friendly reminder. He has always disagreed with people who are completely driven by curiosity. The saying that curiosity kills the cat is not groundless.

"I understand. Big brother, we'll be leaving first. Thank you so much for what you did today!"

"Well, be careful on your way home."
