Chapter 3352 3364 [Prepare to take action]
Suzuki Sonoko was unaware of Ran Maori's concerns. This righteous high school girl clenched her fist and said, "Let's take Teacher Judy there to eat again tomorrow! She won't be able to eat such authentic Japanese food when she returns to her country."
Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment and wanted to object, but then she thought: If Teacher Judy is actually innocent, then Sonoko's proposal is indeed reasonable.
I hope there's some misunderstanding...
Thinking of this, Mao Lilan nodded in agreement: "It happens that tomorrow is Monday, let's go ask her during class."
…
the next day.
In a foreign teacher's newly rented apartment.
Judy woke up feeling uneasy early in the morning, always feeling as if something bad was about to happen.
To be exact, she didn't sleep well last night. She even had a nightmare in the middle of the night. She dreamed that a huge black and white cat was sticking to the window of her room, staring at her through the glass.
This woke Judy up in the middle of the night. She stared at the ceiling and muttered a few words about Uzo and his elusive cat before wrapping herself in the quilt and going back to sleep.
But the sleep she managed to get in the second half of the night obviously didn't help her regain much energy. When she got to the office, Judy soon fell drowsy.
In a trance, she dreamed of the night that she would never forget.
Twenty years ago, Judy was just an innocent elementary school student. One night, she woke up inexplicably and ran to find her father, carrying her rag doll. She saw her father lying motionless on the ground, and next to him stood a beautiful woman in black.
Hearing the noise at the door, the woman in black turned around, with blood splattered on her cheek.
Judy didn't notice anything was wrong in her sleepy eyes. She just asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
The woman in black smiled, bent down to pick up the dead man's dropped glasses, turned and walked to the door.
She squatted down gently, put the glasses on Judy's nose, and then told the child in front of her that her father had fallen asleep and asked her to stay by his side.
Judy nodded in agreement, but after waiting for a while, this thoughtful daughter suddenly remembered something and ran out of the house to buy a bottle of juice for her father.
Not long after she left, the house turned into a sea of fire - Vermouth set fire to the entire villa.
"Ms. Judy? Ms. Judy?"
A voice different from the one in her dream came from somewhere and brought her back to reality.
Judy opened her eyes with a start and suddenly found herself standing next to someone. She subconsciously wanted to draw her gun to defend herself, but as soon as her hand moved, Judy remembered: Where is the gun?
…She hasn’t carried a gun outside for a long time.
"In a sense, every single one of the members of that organization is deeply sinful..."
The second-generation FBI agent gnashed his teeth and condemned the abominable Black Organization. Then he quickly put on a smile and looked at the school colleague who had just called her: "What's wrong?"
The colleague wiped the sweat off his bald head and looked at the beautiful foreign teacher with concern: "Are you okay?"
Judy skillfully switched to work mode: "Oh, of course!"
My colleague laughed out loud. "Don't be so stubborn. You're new here, so it's normal for you to find these kids difficult. I've taught at the school for so many years, and I still get a headache when I see them."
"No, no." Judy couldn't really agree with him and said, "Yeah, you Tokyo students are really annoying." She could only maintain the cheerful smile that a foreign teacher should have, "They are all very good kids."
As she spoke, she sighed again: "I'm just a little reluctant to leave here soon."
——After working with the "new doctor" for some time, Judy felt that she had checked almost everything she needed to check, and it would be difficult to gain more even if she continued to work as a guest foreign teacher here.
So it's time to lay the groundwork and prepare to exit: after teaching this month's classes, she will officially step down, disappear behind the scenes, and start working with other colleagues to capture Vermouth.
Before long, the students in her class also knew the news.
Although they had heard the rumors a long time ago, when they heard the dean and Judy officially announce the news together, the students couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.
The Dean of Studies looked at the students' reluctance and said helplessly, "Teacher Judy has family matters and will have to return to the United States at the end of this month. But don't worry, everyone. Teacher Judy loves it here. She said she would come to Tokyo again if she has time in the future."
Judy: "..." This is just a polite remark, don't take it seriously... After catching Vermouth, she will use all her strength to stay away from this weird place and never come back.
In the classroom.
Suzuki Sonoko whispered to Mao Lilan: "Something happened at home? What could it be?"
Mao Lilan shook her head blankly, having no idea at all.
At the podium, Judy came back to her senses from her thoughts.
At the Dean's signal, she cleared her throat, maintained the smile expected of a foreigner, and offered insincere politeness: "Although my time with you all wasn't long, I'm very happy to have this experience!"
"You may encounter some difficulties in your studies in the future, but I believe you can overcome them and make smooth progress. Good luck!"
The audience was very cooperative and there was warm applause.
Seeing the reluctance in the eyes of her ordinary classmates, Judy couldn't help but be moved. She smiled and said, "However, it's a little early to say goodbye now - I will continue to teach until the end of this month. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. I hope that before I leave, I can make more contributions to your studies!"
…
The other students were reluctant to leave, but after all, the relationship between them and Judy was just that of a teacher and a student. In Tokyo, such relationships were often not too close.
But it's different for Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko - they have a lot of contact with Judy outside of school, and they often encounter murders together when they go out. They can be considered brothers in distress... no, they can be considered partners in solving crimes together.
Therefore, as soon as school was over, Suzuki Sonoko quickly packed her schoolbag, then pulled Mao Li Ran and chased in the direction Judy left.
"Teacher Judy!"
When calling out this name, Suzuki Sonoko always felt that the foreign teacher's pace seemed to have quietly quickened.
But soon, as she got closer, Teacher Judy's pace returned to normal. Then, as if she had just heard something, she turned around in surprise and greeted, "It's you guys, what's going on?"
Suzuki Sonoko was a little worried: "Teacher, what happened at home? Do you need help?"
"Oh, that." Judy smiled like a naughty foreigner, "That's just an excuse I made up. Nothing happened at home!"
