Chapter 3296 3308 [Alert Judy]
Hearing Jiang Xia mention Judy, Suzuki Sonoko belatedly slapped her palm and remembered something: "Come to think of it, it's been a while since I went out to play with Teacher Judy alone. The last time I met her was on Valentine's Day, and there was a bunch of other people with her..."
Thinking about how clingy this teacher was when she first came to Teitan Middle School, and then thinking about how strangely quiet she is now, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but feel a little guilty: "Maybe Teacher Judy thinks we don't welcome her, so she doesn't come to us often?"
...She, she had been muttering bad things about the foreign teacher in her heart for a while, but that was also because some of Teacher Judy's actions looked too strange.
But despite her suspicions, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but feel a little worried when she saw that Judy really no longer took the initiative to contact them. She began to reflect on whether she had accidentally bullied this poor teacher - she used to be such an outgoing person, and now...
Speaking of this, Mao Lilan also remembered something: "Have you noticed that Teacher Judy is not so enthusiastic about teaching? I remember when she introduced herself, she said that she came to Tokyo for tourism - maybe she felt that there was nothing fun here and planned to return home early?"
"How could this happen!" Suzuki Sonoko was shocked. "I can go back to my country, but at least I should go back without any regrets... No, we can't just go on like this - let's go and ask Teacher Judy if she's free on her weekend. If she is, let's ask her out and experience the various cultures of this city again!"
Jiang Xia was unable to get a word in. When he came to his senses, he found himself being dragged towards the office by Suzuki Sonoko.
After the three left.
At the corner, "Dr. Xinchu" pushed his glasses and looked at their backs thoughtfully.
After a moment, Vermouth nodded slightly, as if she had secretly made some kind of decision.
…
"A day off?"
In the office, Judy, who had spent the entire night analyzing the relationship between Vermouth and Uzo, looked up with dark circles under her eyes and looked at the three high school students in front of her, a little surprised, "You want to ask me out?"
Seeing the two high school girls nodding seriously, Judy held the coffee can and took a gulp, feeling a little complicated for a moment.
——When she first came here, she risked her dignity and tried her best to investigate Wu Zuo and get closer to Jiang Xia who was involved in a case.
Now, the focus of her investigation has shifted to Vermouth, and she no longer needs to get close to these three high school students...but the high school students came to her on their own initiative.
Judy: “…” What’s going on?
Is this another conspiracy by Uzo?
Could it be that Uzo is really an ally of Vermouth, so he took the initiative to use his little manipulation tricks to influence these high school students and get them to invite him out to play on the weekend in order to relieve the pressure on Vermouth?
...That's wrong. Wouldn't this further expose their alliance? Would Uzo really do something like sending intelligence?
In addition, if this is true, then Uzo's means of control are too powerful - how thick a puppet string must be used to connect Jiang Xia in order to bring this busy detective to school on a day when there are no exams.
She tried hard to think, as she had been staying up all night.
At this time, probably seeing her confusion, Jiang Xia smiled and said, "When you called me last night, did something happen?"
"!" Judy's mind flashed through Vermouth's secret camera target, Uzo, and their FBI search team... Then she suppressed everything and shook her head nonchalantly, "No, haha, why would you think so."
"That's good." Jiang Xia looked thoughtful. "At that time, I actually felt that your voice was a little anxious, but I happened to have a murder case here, and it was too late to solve the case, so I didn't call you to ask - today I thought about it again, and I always felt uneasy, so I came directly to school."
He pointed at the other two high school girls and said, "After we talked about you, Xiaolan and Sonoko also felt that you were in a bad mood recently, so they wanted to invite you out to play - they care about you very much."
"..." Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko felt a little embarrassed, but it was better for Jiang Xia to say such words than for them to say them themselves.
Suzuki Sonoko wasn't the type to be coy, so seeing this, she simply said to Judy, "It's been a while since we've hung out together. I remember you like sports very much, so let's go to the Toudou Kokugikan! I remember there's a competition there this weekend, and it's quite large."
When Judy heard what they said and looked at the two high school girls with concerned expressions, she was stunned and realized that she seemed to have thought too much.
If the reason for this outing invitation was the panicked phone call she made after discovering Jiang Xia was missing last night... then it seems to make sense why things turned out like this.
So here comes the question.
Should I go or not?
After hesitating for a moment, Judy did not agree directly. She looked at her watch and said, "I think I have an appointment with someone this weekend, but I forgot the exact time... How about this! Class is about to start, you guys go back to the classroom first, I'll call my friend, and I'll message you once I've confirmed the schedule."
After sending away three high school students using the excuse of having a bad memory, Judy took out her cell phone, walked to a deserted place, and started making calls.
Of course, she didn't call her fictitious friend, but called Shuichi Akai.
——Although everything seemed to make sense, she had just met Wu Zuo last night and something unusual happened today... She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Judy: “…” But it’s not a big problem. If you can’t figure it out, go find someone who can.
——Isn’t the ace core used to play a guiding role?
…
After the call was connected, Judy quickly described the general situation.
Then I quickly got advice from the experts: "Go for it."
Judy nodded in agreement, but she remembered that every time she went out with these students, she would encounter various things along the way...
She couldn't help but protest faintly in her heart, and instinctively looked for a reason to refuse: "But is this necessary? - If the three of them came to see me not because of Wu Zuo's influence, then wouldn't it be a wasted trip?
"On the other hand, if they invited me because of Uzo's push, then once I leave, wouldn't the pressure on Vermouth be lessened? Wouldn't this help Uzo achieve his goal?"
Akai Shuichi leaned against a roadside tree, looking at Teitan Elementary School in the distance. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he had to change his phone hand: "..." In fact, whether you leave or not, Vermouth's pressure is the same, there is no difference...
