Protect our prophets

Opportunities are not only obtained by waiting, but also actively created.

It's very risky, but Songxue thinks it's worth a try.

"You will say that, there must be a definite suspect, right?"

Yukimura mentioned at this moment that she was about to briefly talk about her plan when the phone in her pocket vibrated.

"Sorry." Songxue hurriedly made a "wait a moment" gesture, picked up the phone, walked to the side of the road, and pressed the answer button.

Yukimura also stopped and waited for her quietly.

"Hi, it's me!" The brisk voice sounded from the other end of the phone, and Song Xue knew it was Marui Bunta.

In order to facilitate the "private chat" with Matsumoto Yuko, she specifically asked him to help her travel to Tokyo. Judging from his tone, it should be progressing well.

In addition, she is actually selfish.Marui was transferred away, and the other main candidates were not present, so she dared to propose the idea of ​​"testing the danger with herself" with Yukimura.

Otherwise, given how much they cared about Yukimura, she might have been cut off by these teenagers right after she spoke halfway.

"How is it?" Songxue asked.

"Let me tell you——" Before Marui could answer, he mumbled a few times, as if someone had snatched his mobile phone, which caused a commotion, and all the voices suddenly became distant.

Three to five seconds later, the phone finally fell into someone's hands, and the noisy sound disappeared.

"Hello, Miss Songxue?" The other person replaced him with a polite and polite voice, "Sorry, something happened just now... Uh, it should be said that it was an accident."

"What happened to you?" Songxue frowned.

That was completely beyond her expectations.If Bingdi is also involved, I'm afraid she will have to overthrow all conjectures and start over from scratch.

"Oh no, it's actually not a big deal, don't be nervous." Renzu coughed dryly, and his laughter was faintly subtle, "Marui-san has a fanatic fan in our team, a little, um, please understand, it's more exciting to see an idol... ...He's being taught by Atobe."

"It's fine, please continue." She breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down, "What did you find?"

"First of all, the car accident must be man-made." Shinozu cleared his throat and began to tell, "The police in Yokohama received a report at noon today and found the stolen car outside an old warehouse, and the license plate was thrown in the trunk—"

"I know this, of course it's man-made." Songxue almost couldn't hold back, if she could guess something, does she still need to investigate it?

She sighed slightly, controlled her mood, and asked as patiently as possible: "Can you tell me something useful?"

"Uh" in embarrassment, "I know you're very anxious, but in fact, it's only been two days since the case was re-opened, and the vehicle that caused the accident has just been found..."

"Is it only two days?"

Songxue was silent for a while, put down the phone screen, and glanced at the time display.

From Friday night when she separated from Atobe and the others to now, so many things happened that she felt in a trance that a long time had passed...

But in fact, only one weekend has passed, and today is only Monday.

Ayanokouji was killed last Thursday, and the funeral has not even been held yet.Maybe, they still have time to participate in the first seven rituals in a few days.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile wryly.

"Are you okay?" Renzu asked with concern, keenly hearing the change in the voice on the other side.

His voice is low, with a slightly hoarse magnetic voice.Songxue suddenly felt that her ears were a little soft, she came back to her senses, and replied: "Yes, I am here."

Shinozu said a lot more.

The information about the whereabouts of the driver, the source of the stolen vehicle, and the specific time of disappearance is very detailed.At the same time, it also reflects that the murderer is very cunning, although there are many traces, it is not so easy to trace the specific identity.

In fact, Songxue didn't listen to what he said very attentively, and was slightly distracted.

When Shinobu said - "Atobe plans to go and have a look", she turned her attention back to the phone.

"Hey, is it okay? Your tennis club should also have training, right?"

"It's true to say so, but if you don't solve this matter, you always feel that you can't calm down, don't you?" Renzu said, "Then it's settled, see you tomorrow."

……

After hanging up the phone, Songxue stared blankly at the call time displayed on the phone screen, and after a while, put the phone away.

She thought, that's fine too.

But the more people involved, the greater the risk.She had to design the script more carefully and carefully.

Thinking of this, Songxue turned her head to look at the side of the road.Yukimura did not stay where she was, she only saw the speeding traffic on the road.

Of course he won't leave without saying goodbye.

Farther away, there was a convenience store. While waiting for her to finish calling, Yukimura should have gone shopping.

Footsteps came from behind, and they didn't try to hide it.

Matsuyuki suddenly turned around and saw Airi Kawahara.

She will stop a few steps away, look at her coldly, with her hands crossed over her chest, the hostility on her face remains the same as before, not much less: "What are you looking for, sister Yuzi?"

"You have been following?" Songxue asked without answering, with a half-smile, "If Matsumoto finds out, she probably won't be very happy."

Yuko Matsumoto has a really good temper.However, the softer the surface, the tougher the inner attitude.

This point, her close friends will not be unclear.

Kawahara's eyebrows trembled unnaturally, but he didn't back down: "Do you think I'm afraid of this kind of threat?"

There was a distance of one and a half meters between the two, and this was the first time Songxue had the opportunity to observe her carefully.

Kawahara Airi's appearance is not outstanding, almost the most traditional type of green leaves, usually accompanied by the campus princess, completely covered her demeanor.In addition, every time she met Songxue, she didn't put on a good face, although her makeup was exquisite and her slender eyebrows were impressive...

I'm afraid that few people would seriously look at her face, let alone someone she herself expected to get attention.

"Is it you who wrote the threatening letter?"

Songxue's words without warning made the other party's eyes widen instantly.

"what are you saying?"

"On the second day after I dated Yukimura Seiichi, the news spread throughout the school inexplicably. Before school was over in the afternoon, I received such a letter in the locker——"

While narrating slowly, she took out the chemistry textbook from her schoolbag, took out an envelope, shook it, and showed it to Kawahara: "It's blood red, and it's quite scary."

Kawahara Airi said nothing, her face was tense, her lips were almost drawn into a line.

"What happened more than a month ago, fortunately, I have the habit of saving, so I left this letter." Songxue smiled and said, "You may think it's irrelevant, and I think so too. Have you seen this?" Leave the underline, this is not red paint, it is a trace of nail polish, and you are the only person I have ever dealt with recently who likes to paint their nails."

Her eyebrows were raised high, and her voice became much sharper: "So what?"

"So what?" she repeated, her tone calm. "I don't need to prove anything. It doesn't matter whether you admit it or not. I just want to tell you that I know what the truth is."

Do you really think you can fool everyone by trying to play tricks in front of the detective?

Songxue felt that there was no need to bring this kind of boring trick to the table.She didn't intend to spend too much time entangled with Kawahara on meaningless things, so she decided to take care of it earlier.

"Let's talk about the keys of your support team. Leaving aside the other two, the keys kept by Yuko Matsumoto should be the easiest for you to get. It's easier for your internal personnel to enter and exit than me, an unrelated person looking for opportunities to sneak in. .

"Is Matsumoto really ignorant of this matter? She certainly disdains doing such a thing, but do you think she will guess who did it?"

Kawahara's face finally couldn't hold back, he bit his lip and turned pale.

She wasn't afraid of accusations, nor was she afraid of the consequences, but Songxue's mention of Matsumoto Yuko made her panic.

"If you dare—" She took a sudden step, and raised her voice sternly, "Songxue, we'll see!"

While Matsuyuki retreated, Kawahara pushed him hard.

She avoided the force and dissipated most of the force. She just staggered a few steps back, leaned on the wall to stand firm, and when she looked up, she saw the other party turn around quickly, and the ponytail swung to one side neatly in the air.

... Kawahara Airi ran away.

After serving as a follower for a long time, the sense of awe towards the object of following seems to be deeply engraved into the habit.

Dialectically speaking, the backer is not only a kind of protection, but also a shadow, which will always weigh on their hearts.

Since I chose to hold a group, being someone else's little follower... This is also unavoidable.

Songxue tidied up her sleeves calmly, thinking that he might be able to get rid of her for a while.

"Songxue..."

There was a soft call from behind, she looked back, and Yukimura was standing not far away, looking at herself slightly worried.With two drinks in his hand, he walked forward slowly.

"It's okay, I'm just rehearsing in advance." Songxue said with relief, her tone was very relaxed.

"What rehearsal?"

"It's part of leading the snake out of the hole." She smiled and said solemnly.

Yukimura still had an inquiring look on his face, but he didn't ask any more questions and handed over one of the paper cups.Songxue took it and held it in her hand, it was still a little hot through the paper cup.

"Is it hot?" She looked at the mouth of the straw with regret, "I don't like to drink hot. The milk tea tastes better when it's cold."

After finishing speaking, Songxue finally realized that he bought this to treat himself to drink.And after all, they weren't real (ex) boyfriend and girlfriend, and she wasn't in a position to be critical.

It's so embarrassing.

Songxue hastily added: "Ah, I'll just talk about it casually, whatever Yukimura-kun buys is good."

Yukimura held the cup of latte coffee in his hand, and just smiled slightly: "I remember, you seemed to be at this time last month..."

Songxue just bit her straw and raised her head in shock.

You know this as well?

He blinked: "'Look out, Watson'—didn't you?"
