166.

From early spring to midsummer, it only takes the time of taking off a coat, and people always hear the cicadas chirping without realizing it. Looking up, they suddenly find that the emerald green leaves are already densely packed, madly absorbing the warmth of the sun.

Having passed the last plot point in May, the tense and intensive comic scene can finally come to an end.

Chiyodaya Saori suddenly realized that she had managed to do so many things in just two months, and had perfected the characters of Chiyodaya Toru and Shinsou quite well.

At least the forums are full of complaints, but the reality is easy to handle.

Why would she be a detective in the future? She should be a screenwriter! (Shock)

The highlight value of the balance in May was indeed not as much as that in April, but it was still over 3,000. Chiyoya Sawaori thought about it for a long time and gave herself a two-month vacation.

The customer service was the most protesting against this.

[You should have taken the initiative to find the plot points!] It muttered, with a look of heartache, [What a shame! What a shame!]

Chiyoya Saori was a little speechless. She tapped the Q-version customer service on the head and looked at him like an idiot: [Although the total amount of votes remains constant, the readers' impression will change as the plot develops. I don't want them to take my image for granted.]

[Besides, the police academy lasts for six months, so it is impossible to put all the plots in the front at once. ]

Eating delicacies from land and sea every day will eventually make you tired of it. Chiyodani Soori does not want the image of "Chiyodani Toru" to be fixed as a righteous crime-solving machine and a useless tool. Relaxing in moderation is the right way.

Moreover, if he is not careful in the early stage and causes more troubles to the organization, the organization will probably underestimate the value of Chiyodani Toru's vest.

As the highlight value is sufficient for the time being and the plot of the manga is still long, Chiyoya Sawaori feels that a "vacation" is necessary.

However, the fact that the main plot has come to a temporary end does not mean that the comic will be on hiatus for a few months. During the transition period, the comic will be interspersed with some daily life of the police academy team and changes in the organization to fill in the gaps.

Chiyoya Saori only takes on cases based on the comic's trailer, occasionally using a vest to sneak into the camera, or avoiding the police academy team and playing hide-and-seek with the organization. The rest of the time she stays in school and can be said to be extremely well-behaved.

Onizuka Hachizo was extremely satisfied with this and felt that he had taught well.

167.

"Goodbye, teacher—"

As the bell rang and the teachers left impatiently, the students packed up their things in groups of three or four and discussed where to go for leisure or review in the afternoon.

The victory guard hanging on the door, which was exclusive to the Onitsuka class, swung back and forth as the door opened and closed, bringing a lot of cool air out of the classroom.

"Time flies by so fast." Matsuda Jinpei slapped the model he had just repaired on the table, raised his hand and yawned, "No class today~"

Hagiwara Kenji stood up, walked over to him, picked up the model and fiddled with it. The small bomb model looked particularly delicate, with small sticky notes on each line for easy identification.

"What kind of model is this? Can you lend me the parts so I can take it apart?" He said casually, "You didn't even listen in class, it would be strange if time didn't pass quickly."

"What's so good about this kind of ideological education class?" Matsuda Jinpei yawned again, tears dripping from the corners of his eyes. He looked very sleepy. He lay down on the table and said, "I'm so tired!"

Fūya Ling put the book away and glanced at him: "Did you go out to steal last night? You must not have slept well."

"I..." Jinpei Matsuda paused for a moment.

"They must be practicing bomb disposal," Hagiwara Kenji said, "This guy knew he was recruited in advance, so he was so excited that he couldn't separate himself from the bomb model in the middle of the night and clung to it~"

"Pfft..." Zhufu Jingguang was amused by his description. He said, "Are you really that excited? Don't let your test pass again."

Matsuda Jinpei slammed his head on the table, looking dissatisfied: "It definitely won't happen this time, the last time was an accident! And - didn't Hagi you also agree? Why aren't you excited at all, you virgin group!"

Hagiwara Kenji threw the parts on the table and pressed his entire body on Matsuda Jinpei's shoulders like a boneless person: "It's been two weeks. What's there to be excited about? Anyway, it's not a big problem for you and me--"

The black-haired young man sitting in the front turned his head at some point and said to the two of them with murderous eyes: "If you dare to be careless and act rashly, kneel down and repent!"

The two froze for a moment, and said helplessly: "I'm sure we won't take it lightly, Toru, you're too nervous."

"Am I too nervous?" Chiyoya Saori raised her eyebrows. "I remember who was on the Shinkansen last time—"

"You're right!" Matsuda Jinpei answered immediately, his expression baring his teeth as if he had just eaten a sour lemon.

But at the same time, he begged for mercy in an extremely skilled manner, and said without hesitation: "This is the correct attitude - Hagi, get up, I can't sit up straight!"

The people standing by were trying to hold back their laughter when they saw Matsuda Jinpei's frightened look, but when they saw the latter's threatening glance, they immediately started looking up at the sky again.

This scene has happened every time the subject of the bomb has been raised in recent months.

But Jinpei Matsuda is not one who can play dumb and fool people, so he is basically always hit by someone's tricks.

Chiyotani Sayori sighed inwardly, and seeing that the two people in front of her still had a nonchalant expression, she felt her fist itching and she wanted to hit them on the head.

However, this time, thanks to the Butterfly Effect she brought, the professional level of these people is much higher than before, and there is basically no room for error.

By the way, why did she feel that the atmosphere between these guys today was weird, as if there was an inexplicable sense of tacit understanding?

Even the seemingly normal conversation just now felt a little out of place.

Chiyotani Sayori thought about it for a moment, then thought it might be her illusion, so she ignored it.

"Time really flies. You will graduate in two months." She changed the subject, her serious expression relaxed, and jokingly said, "The Superintendent is waiting for you at the graduation ceremony."

Matsuda Jinpei took a deep breath and said, "Forget it. I'll wait for him to get off work and put on the sack. You and that golden-haired bastard, do you think you can get the grades you deserve?"

"Can you, a curly-haired bastard, call me by a normal name?" A cross appeared on Furuya's forehead. "Is my name so hard to pronounce?"

"I just won't--" Jinpei Matsuda drawled.

When Fūya Rei saw the look on his face that asked for a beating, his fist instantly stiffened.

Date Kou, who was standing nearby, came over to smooth things over. He put his hand on one of the men's shoulders and said, "There's a department store nearby having a sale, and Toru said he wanted to go buy something."

Hagiwara Kenji said, "Is there a festival recently? Why are there sudden sales activities?"

Fūya Rei thought for a moment and replied, "I saw this in the newspaper. The department store is owned by the Ooi Group. Their chairman, Ooi Gawa Arata, recently announced bankruptcy. I guess the mall will also change hands."

"But it seems there is something else going on." Morobushi Jingguang stroked his chin. "It was only last year that it was listed on the wealth list. How come it was declared bankrupt just one year later?"

Matsuda Jinpei snorted, "Maybe he did some bad business."

"Anyway, we have no access to the capitalists' affairs."

Chiyoya Saori coughed lightly and said, "So you guys are going?"

Seeing the man in front of them looking somewhat expectant, several people answered in unison: "Go!"

[Toru, don't go!]

[When the main plot is not coming, I urge the main plot, but now that the main plot is coming, I want to watch the daily life. I am being pretentious, so I will scold you first! ]

[Fuck, I've been going crazy watching the Police Academy team eating and drinking happily these days, and now they're telling me they're going to get slashed?]

[??? Why did it get cut? Isn't this just a transition to the main plot? I've been drawing the police academy for so long, it's time to move on!]

[The main storyline related to Toru is 100% about the big sword. The speed of the sword depends on the mood of the old thief. I think I have already mastered it (crying cat head)]

[Have you noticed in the previous chapters that whenever Toru leaves school, he always runs into trouble. Although he can solve the problem every time, I have a reasonable suspicion that the organization is observing him, and this time they are probably going to take action!]

[But at least from the surface, this matter doesn’t seem to be related to the organization… wuwuwu okay I can’t make it up anymore tat]

[By the way, the sudden bankruptcy of the Oi Group led to the discounts at the department store. Given Toru’s personality…]

[Oh hahahaha! I get it! (dog head)]

[Zhao, when you put it like that, I feel like conspiracy has become funny!]

[What are you laughing at? You are not allowed to laugh. We are toru poor noblemen and we are not allowed to lose our status! Hahahaha]

[Grab the bamboo shoots! Actually, he can do it if he wants. After all, Toru is used to being frugal. It’s purely because he is now alone. His self-esteem prevents him from asking others for financial help…]

[? ? You are the one who is hurt upstairs!! (The smile gradually disappears.jpg)]

Standing at the entrance of the department store, Chiyoya Saori took a moment to glance at the forum and was immediately amused by the distorted comments of netizens.

A few days ago, during an incident in which Furuya Rei strongly complained about why he was not entitled to ramen, a few people dug around and discovered that she was short of money.

So Chiyodani Toru was given another label of "poor little one".

At the time, Chiyoya Saori was a little worried that someone in the mixed forum might use this point to attack their own protagonist, so she was ready to create a small account to secretly control the comments, but when she went online, she found that there was another scene of crying and begging.

#Chiyodani Toru is short of money, maybe because he used the money to go to the doctor! #

#It's a pity that he never asked for help from anyone#

#Wuwuwu, when will the police academy team know that he has a terminal illness#

Chiyotani Saori is ready to fight: "..."

Just stop talking, as long as you are happy!

Then, at the end of July, her highlight value increased a little bit.

In a sense, she lacks money = lacks highlight value = and it’s nothing wrong for forum users to give her highlight value after finding out!

So, Chiyodani Saori accepted this very well.

"Toru, stop daydreaming. After we finish shopping, do you want to go out for dinner together? It's Hagi's turn to treat us today."

Several people had already walked in, but now they walked out, somewhat curious about what she was looking at.

Chiyoya Saori closed the forum and pointed to the big screen hanging outside the department store. On the screen, a tall, thin middle-aged man was answering reporters' questions with a microphone and a sad face.

"This should be Okawa Ichinobu, right?" She pushed her cap down and said, "But I think it's a bit incongruous that he's wearing a suit with a key sticking out of his pocket and a Doraemon necklace so conspicuous."

Matsuda Jinpei shook his head and said, "Indeed, it may be a personal interest."

Morobushi Kagemitsu is a frequent visitor to the archives and is familiar with this kind of news. He said, "This should be a gift from his seven-year-old daughter. There was a report before that specifically asked about it. Okawa Shin said happily that this is a keepsake that he will never throw away."

Chiyoya Saori nodded, indicating that she understood.

She understood that this plot point would inevitably link Chiyodani Toru to the organization, and that Oigawa Arata's bankruptcy was most likely caused by the organization.

Just according to what the customer service said before, when the story about her is being told, another case will be interspersed.

So, is this mall about to face another blow?

Chiyogaya Saori sighed silently and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

It really is the "peaceful and friendly every day" town of Beika...

"Okay, okay, Toru, don't think so much."

Seeing that she was in a daze again, Furuya Ling went up to her, put his arm around her shoulders, and led her inside, muttering, "I heard there seems to be a delicious dessert shop here, we can buy some to take back."

"Ah, ah?" Chiyogaya Saori was pushed away by him with a confused look on her face, "What are you in such a hurry for?"

"Nothing!" Furiya Rei answered straightforwardly.

But soon, he frowned again and pinched Chiyoya Hayo's thin arm: "The sun is so strong, why are your arms still so cold? How about going downstairs for a massage later?"

Chiyotani Saori: “??? Huh?”

What kind of fast-forward topic-jumping speed is this?

The few people who fell behind the two men watched Furutani Rei take the people away and all breathed a sigh of relief.

"I feel like if Toru keeps watching, we won't be able to finish today's shopping." Hagiwara Kenji said with a lingering fear, "I'm really afraid that his next sentence will be - why don't we investigate the bankruptcy of the Okawa Group?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang couldn't stop smiling. He coughed lightly and tried to save face for his friend: "Actually, he's not particularly good at finding cases. It just happened that..."

"It just so happened that the case came to him!" Matsuda Jinpei couldn't help but hold his forehead, "What kind of luck is this?"

"We've been out so many times in the past few months, and every time we're together with Toru, we always run into a case..."

Matsuda Jinpei counted on his fingers: "The last time we went out for dinner, we ran into a robbery on the way; when we went to do social service, we saw a murderer running away; even when we passed by someone's house throwing away garbage, he happened to find that the blood inside was of an abnormal color..."

“Does this make sense?”

Date Kou was almost silent. He said, "According to Toru, this should be a call of justice?"

"At least there must be no accidents today." Zhu Fu Jingguang sighed, "This guy may have even forgotten that today is his birthday!"

Matsuda Jinpei put his hands on the back of his head and stared at the screen in a daze, but his expression was very relaxed: "Anyway, we are almost ready, we can just bring the person over tonight."

Chiyodani Toru currently lives alone at home and must have not celebrated his birthday for many years. After seeing his date of birth in the file, a few people came up with the idea.

They had been preparing for this for nearly a week, and in order to prevent any flaws from being exposed in front of Chiyodani Toru, they even took turns climbing over the wall at night to clean up the place.

The conversation between Jinpei Matsuda and the others after class today was actually about trying to find excuses to explain why they feel sleepy every day so as not to arouse Chiyodani Toru's suspicion.

"Toru is too sensitive. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I think you would have let the cat out of the bag a long time ago." Hagiwara Kenji rolled his eyes. "You're stuck on your lines. How can you still be so excited after two weeks?"

Matsuda Jinpei snorted coldly: "Why? I can't really get excited?"

If Chiyodani Toru had not suggested to come for purchasing, and the purchase would not take up too much time, they actually planned to check the decorated birthday party venue again in the afternoon.

"Let's go. I feel guilty for keeping this a secret from Toru." Date Kou looked at the beverage store next door and said, "Let's buy some drinks and bring them over."

They will make a quick decision this time, so there shouldn't be any mistakes.

168.

Chiyoya Saori didn't know that in the eyes of her companions, she had become a "mobile god of death".

After all, she only appeared in a few daily scenes involving cases!

At this moment, she and Rei Furuya were standing in front of the closed dessert shop, staring at each other in bewilderment. The latter obviously didn't expect the dessert shop to run away so quickly, and suddenly felt helpless: "Okay, I didn't investigate clearly."

"I always feel like you guys are hiding something from me." She said suspiciously, "Just tell me not to kill me."

"Really not." There was sincerity in Fūya Ling's purple-gray eyes, and a kind expression on his face, "Toru, don't you believe me?"

Chiyoya Saori shivered at his puppy eyes, and with some disgust, she held his shoulders and moved away from him: "Don't get so close in the middle of summer, it's so hot."

"Shouldn't we say this is the warmth of spring-like care from our companions?" Hagiwara Kenji came over from the side without knowing when, and attentively distributed drinks to the few people, "Have you decided what to buy?"

"That's about right. I remember the supermarket was on the basement floor, and the clothes and daily necessities were on the second and third floors." Morobushi Jingguang smiled, "Toru, what do you want to buy? I can help you get it."

Chiyoya Saori opened the soda and took two sips. After hearing this, she hummed and became even more suspicious: "Are you really not hiding anything from me?"

"Really not!" several people said in unison.

"I hope so." Chiyoya Saori smiled slightly, "Then let's split up and meet on the first floor after shopping."

"If you need anything, call me."

No one had any objection, and even Chiyotani Toru didn't say anything. They also planned to take some time to discuss what else they could add to decorate the banquet.

…

After separating from her peers, Chiyoya Saori pretended to buy a book and walked towards the elevator of the department store.

Through the spoilers in the comics, she saw that ten minutes ago, Okawa Shin appeared on the screen and hurriedly went up to the rooftop.

Doesn't this mean that the plot is about to begin and her vacation is over?

Chiyoya Saori looked down at her phone, and as if she was distracted, she changed the elevator button from the sixth floor of the bookstore to the seventh floor, which leads to the top floor.

Although I don’t know why her peers were so easy to talk to today, they didn’t even ask her what she wanted to buy and just let her shop by herself.

But it’s a good thing after all!
