Chapter 3353 3365 [Judy's Party]
"What?" The two high school girls were stunned. They didn't expect Teacher Judy to directly admit that she was lying.
After hesitating for a moment and looking at the meaningful smile on the foreign teacher's face, Suzuki Sonoko said suspiciously: "Teacher, could it be that you encountered something serious and are afraid that we will worry, so you said this on purpose?"
"Huh?" Judy was a little surprised. In the eyes of this high school girl, she was such a good person?
This actually made her conscience pang. Judy shook her head and said half sincerely and half jokingly, "Actually, I've been looking for a very important treasure map for a long time - and now, I may have found it."
"...Treasure map?" Suzuki Sonoko and Mouri Ran never expected this to be the reason.
The two looked at each other, and Suzuki Sonoko's imagination suddenly opened up. She whispered to Mao Lilan: "Could it be that Judy's first love is in Tokyo, so she came all the way here to look for him?"
Mao Lilan felt something was wrong: "Why would an American's first love be in Tokyo?"
When talking about this topic, Suzuki Sonoko's mind became active. Like the sharpest detective, she fixed her eyes and gave many possibilities in an instant:
"For example, when Teacher Judy was traveling in Tokyo, she was bullied by local bullies because she was unfamiliar with the place. Then a handsome guy stepped forward and saved her from danger.
"Or maybe there's a handsome guy traveling to America, unfamiliar with the place and being bullied by local bullies. Then Teacher Judy steps in! Beauty saves the hero.
"Or maybe they met online and it gradually developed into a mysterious and romantic online relationship... Ah! How beautiful! I really want to see what her first love looks like."
Mao Lilan understood and sighed helplessly: "..." You are just curious about the handsome guy's appearance - after all, why do we assume that Judy's first love must be a handsome guy? What if the person is ugly but beautiful in spirit?
However, although she agreed with Sonoko's speculation, when she heard the word "treasure map", Mao Lilan suddenly had a guess.
"When it comes to treasure maps, it's hard not to think of 'puzzles,' and when it comes to puzzles, it's hard not to think of detectives... Could it be that Teacher Judy acted strangely towards Jiang Xia because she was looking for that thing?"
"If she really just wants to borrow Jiang Xia's power, then Teacher Judy shouldn't pose any threat to us... Well, I hope that's the case."
Seeing the two high school girls lost in thought over her casual words, Judy quietly turned around and took the opportunity to leave.
However, just as she took a step, she was suddenly stopped by someone. Suzuki Sonoko noticed her little action: "Teacher, wait a minute! - It's rare to find someone, so show us your first love!"
"First love?" Judy looked puzzled, not knowing where the word came from. She shook her head and denied it. "No, no, the treasure map I'm talking about is not that kind of thing."
"No?" Suzuki Sonoko was disappointed, but also more curious, "What is that?"
"It's a secret." Teacher Judy remembered what Vermouth said to her in the nightmare and blurted out, "A secret makes a woman woman."
Suzuki Sonoko was extremely curious, but Teacher Judy obviously didn't want to say it, so she had to stop asking.
After thinking about it, the enthusiastic high school girl suggested, "How about this!" She turned to Mao Lilan and said, "Let's hold a farewell party for Teacher Judy!"
Mao Lilan was stunned: "Farewell party? This, this is too sudden."
"What's so sudden about this? It's rare that I have free time today. I don't get out of school this early at other times." Suzuki Sonoko said as she pulled the two of them towards a convenience store in the distance. "No need to be too formal, just buy some snacks and juice. Just think of it as a farewell gift to our friends!"
"This..." Mao Lilan weighed it for a moment, then nodded as if she had made up her mind, "Okay!"
Judy looked at the two high school girls who quickly reached an agreement: "..."
She wanted to refuse, but then she thought, with Suzuki Sonoko's enthusiasm and initiative, if she refused today's small gathering of three people, maybe she would be able to organize a grand gathering for the whole class the next day.
Imagine the chaos that would occur...
Judy took a deep breath and kept smiling: "Okay!"
…
There were several convenience stores. After thinking about it, Suzuki Sonoko chose the one in front of the station.
Mao Lilan was a little confused at first as to why they had to go to a convenience store farther away, but soon she remembered: "Are you going to the store where Xiao Xuan works?"
"Xiao Xuan?" Every time Judy was with these two high school girls, she would encounter some unexpected situations. Therefore, she had already unconsciously entered a state of alert and began to carefully analyze every person and every situation she might encounter. "Is this student in our class?"
"Of course not." Suzuki Sonoko smiled, "Xiao Xuan was our classmate in junior high school. I haven't seen her for a while, so I just happened to stop by to see her."
…
Soon, the three of them arrived at the convenience store in front of the station.
After passing through the automatic door, the two high school girls looked around but didn't see the person they were looking for.
After a moment of confusion, Suzuki Sonoko walked to the front desk and asked, "Is Xiaoxuan not working today? - I mean, Nanakawa Xuan."
"Nanagawa..." When the clerk mentioned this person, his expression suddenly became strange, followed by a sad sigh.
Judy's expression then became strange, and she guessed, "She died?"
Mao Lilan: “?!” Oh, what a terrible idea! Why would Teacher Judy think that?
The clerk was also stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hand: "Not really."
Judy nodded, understanding: that meant going to jail.
She was about to express her regret to her two classmates, but at this moment, she saw the clerk pointing to the warehouse at the back and lowered his voice: "Qianchuan is talking to the store manager in the back."
Judy: “……?”
I'm just talking to the store manager, why are you looking like that? It's really misleading.
She breathed a sigh of relief and, along with two other high school girls, walked through the layers of shelves and arrived at the warehouse door.
The door was half-open, and before I could get close enough, I heard a scolding voice from inside:
"You simply refuse to change your ways!—We've been shorthanded lately, and I was thinking of turning a blind eye to you. As long as you sincerely repented, I wouldn't have bothered with those things. But now... hmph, you'll just pack up and leave!"
Hearing this, Judy finally understood.
How could this be called "talking"? It was clearly a scolding—three customers came in looking for someone, and the person they were looking for was being scolded... It was such an awkward situation, no wonder the clerk looked so embarrassed.
The two female high school students were also stunned when they heard: He hasn’t come for a few days, what happened?
