Chapters 3529 & 3541 [Judy: Uzo Flavor!] Requesting monthly votes ()

After running around the corner and out of Jiangxia's sight, Dr. Shinichi breathed a sigh of relief and answered the phone.

A female voice came from the other end, belonging to the FBI agent disguised as a high school foreign teacher: "How are you doing at school? Have you encountered anything unusual?"

"..." Dr. Shinichi paused, his mind instinctively flashing back to the "role" that Sonoko Suzuki had mentioned earlier.

But thinking of that innocent child, he ultimately resorted to his habitual defense of his student, shaking his head and saying, "It's nothing."

Judy hummed in response, "Really nothing? I felt like you paused a bit when you were speaking just now."

Dr. Shinichi: "..."

Although that is indeed the case, isn't it a bit too embarrassing for you to say it directly?

However, recalling how blunt this FBI agent had been during their previous conversation, Dr. Araide could only sigh and ignore the other party's slight lack of consideration.

He thought for a moment and then changed his words, saying, "Okay, actually it was just a little misunderstanding between the students—but don't worry, it's been resolved."

Minor conflicts between students that have already been resolved will not interest anyone, and no one will delve too deeply into them.

However, contrary to his expectations, the FBI agent opposite him did not let the matter drop. Instead, after a pause, he asked very seriously, "What exactly happened?"

Before Dr. Shinichi could speak, Judy added, "Details down to every single detail, every single line of dialogue!"

"..." Dr. Shinichi really wanted to pretend he hadn't heard and silently hang up the phone... but unfortunately, as a kind-hearted person who had received a favor from the other party, he couldn't do such a thing no matter what.

After thinking for a moment, he had no choice but to follow Ms. Judy's request and recount the events in as much detail as possible, starting from when he met Jiang Xia and the others, continuing until the very end.

“Oh, I see.” Judy muttered. “Although the fact that you met Suzuki and the others sounds very suspicious, it is, after all, their school. It’s not unreasonable for them to ask Jiang Xia to investigate because they are afraid of paranormal events.”

"Suspicious?" Dr. Shinichi paused, his brow furrowing involuntarily. "Are you suspecting those students?"

Judy sighed: "Actually...%￥^@!!"

A strange noise suddenly came from the other end of the phone, like someone covering their mouth while trying to snatch the phone.

Dr. Shinichi looked at the stethoscope with a puzzled expression and asked with some concern, "Ms. Judy, are you alright?"

"Ahem, it's nothing!" Judy cleared her throat, not mentioning what had just happened again. She then asked, "After the deceased's childhood friend learned the truth, was he furious and embarrassed?"

"Out of embarrassment?" Dr. Shinichi shook his head. "No, he was just a little embarrassed."

Judy thought for a moment and asked, "After that art student was forced to tell the truth, did he resent you investigators?"

“Resentment?” Dr. Shinichi shook his head again. “No, he always felt that it was his fault.”

Judy stroked her chin: "Could it be that the girl from the karate club had a crush on the deceased and was plotting revenge, and today, she finally found out who killed her beloved..."

"Ms. Judy!" Dr. Shinichi finally couldn't help but interrupt, "None of what you said is true. Everyone is a very good child, you..."

“No, no.” Judy interrupted him before he could finish:

"Dr. Shinichi, you have no idea how dangerous your actions were today. Although you meant well, don't tell lies like that again. If the deceased's friends or family feel that your fabricated last words are a desecration of the deceased, they may take their anger out on you and carry out terrible revenge."

"Well... it shouldn't be that bad, right?" Dr. Shinichi scratched his cheek, somewhat worried about the FBI agent's condition. "Although this might be a bit offensive, Professor Judy, why don't you go see a psychologist and get checked out?"

Judy sighed, her voice tinged with sympathy: “You don’t understand anything… I can’t go into too much detail, but you must remember that as the ‘new doctor’ who was once replaced by that thug, you are now a high-risk individual—you must be extremely careful in your every move, avoid conflicts with anyone, and avoid provoking any potential hatred in anyone.”

Dr. Shinichi pressed his temples, beginning to ponder whether the FBI agent opposite him was hospitalized due to injury or mental instability.

Regardless, Judy was indeed a patient lying in a hospital bed, so Shinichiro, in the spirit of a doctor's care, simply went along with what the other person was saying: "I understand, don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who likes to have conflicts with people."

"That's good." Judy seemed to want to say something more, but someone else took the phone.

Soon, a voice came through the receiver again, but this time it sounded like a wise old man: "If anything happens in the future, or if you sense any potential killing intent, please do not hesitate to contact us immediately—even if it's just a misperception, it doesn't matter."

The doctor replied wearily, "Okay, then I'll have to trouble you from now on."

Just as he was about to hang up, he suddenly paused—he had been bombarded with all sorts of strange questions and almost forgot what he wanted to ask.

After organizing his thoughts, the new doctor asked the elderly man on the other end of the stethoscope, who seemed more normal than Ms. Judy:

"When I went to the school, I found that whether it was the students, the principal, or other teachers, everyone described 'me' as a 'good person,' a 'responsible person,' and a 'warm-hearted person'..."

Dr. Shinichi asked, somewhat confused, "Was the person who impersonated me... really a bad person?"

On the other end of the phone, Judy, whose phone had been snatched, still heard those words through the speakerphone.

She froze for a moment, then angrily snatched back her phone: "Is that even a question?! If she's not a bad person, then who is?!—Don't be fooled! She's a guy who can kill with a smile, a devil who can disguise himself in all sorts of identities!"

Just then, with a beep, James reached out from the side and hung up the phone.

"Don't get agitated," James sighed.

"That woman is, after all, an award-winning actress. Her acting skills are reflected in every aspect of her life. If she wanted to become the kind-hearted 'Dr. Araide,' she could easily do it. It's only natural that Dr. Araide was misled by the behavior of 'Dr. Araide.'"

"You don't need to contact him anymore. I'll call Dr. Shinichi in a bit and explain the situation clearly without revealing anything."
