When I went to Sister Tiaozi's Shuiyuetang, in addition to helping to deliver things, I also planned to buy and write snacks as a reward for everyone's caring for me recently. I didn't expect to see a new face after I opened the door.

"This is Kinomoto." Sister Tsutako introduced this tall, healthy-skinned young man to me. "Sure enough, it's more convenient for three people. Kinomoto-kun has helped me a lot."

The young man said humbly: "Where is the matter, let me work here, it is you who helped me."

"Kinomoto-kun will take care of some nearby orders that need to be delivered in the future." She said, "The detective agency doesn't have to bother Mu Yishi every time."

I pulled the clothes behind my back with my hands behind my back, thinking that my motives for going to the detective agency every time were not pure.Visiting on Monday and the second time is like standing in front of a gashapon machine, anxiously waiting for a dream encounter.

I clearly have the contact information of Mr. Dazai, but I have no courage to take the initiative to send a message. Over time, this solemn and sacred act of trying luck has become my fixed weekly program.

"Sister Tiaozi, hasn't your husband come back yet?" I asked casually without seeing the third person.

She immediately showed a distressed expression, and I thought to myself that I might have said something wrong, so I hurriedly interrupted: "I'm just asking casually, he must be very busy there too."

Tiaozi: "My husband called me yesterday to tell me about this matter. He is still in Yayuan and cannot come back for the time being. Some special circumstances have caused the return date to be delayed. I don't quite understand... It seems that some I don’t really believe in things like Shinto and ghosts.”

Shinto ghosts again—I seem to have a special fate with them recently.

It was clearly just going back to my hometown to attend a relative's funeral, but it would take half a month, anyone who heard it would be dreamy.The adulterer will think about whether a married man who is alone has a shady affair, the fanatic will clap his hands and shout that there must be some mysterious mystery in it, and the social observer will think that there is a shocking affair in it. The mystery case is waiting for the day when Shuiluo tries to see the light of day again.

The above are the random thoughts of me, a boring and irrelevant person, for a moment. As for the day when the truth comes out two weeks later, I can’t wait to hit my head against the pillar-if I had known that my wild thoughts could guess so accurately, I might as well use this luck to buy lottery ticket.

"Maybe there are some local customs in Yayuan that we don't understand." I said, "I hope he can come back soon, and Sister Tiaozi won't have to work so hard."

"What's the matter." She smiled gently, "You and Giyuu have helped me, and now there is Kinomoto-kun, so there is no hard work." She put the packaged snack gift box in the cabinet, "Wuyi Can you really do me a favor? Kinomoto-kun doesn't know the way from here to the detective agency, can I trouble you to accompany him once?"

"It's okay, then let Kinomoto-kun come with me."

"Excuse me." Kinomoto nodded to me.

……

During the conversation along the way, I learned that the boy's name is Kinomoto Momoya, he is a high school student, and he has a younger sister.Although he lived nearby, he was not familiar with the road to the Armed Detective Agency. It happened that the main delivery customers of Tatsuko and her family were all concentrated on this side, and Kinomoto expressed some distress.

"It's okay." I comforted him, "Anyway, GPS navigation technology is very advanced now."

"...This can't be called consolation."

Once a stranger and second acquaintance, I led Kinomoto-kun into the detective agency.I shouted, "Good afternoon, excuse me." Then I opened the door and walked in, only to find that today's detective agency is extremely deserted. Except for the administrative staff, only Mr. Kunikida is familiar with him. A quick book.

"Good afternoon." He raised his head from the desk, the dark circles under his eyes appeared, and he looked very tired, "Just put the things in the old place... Is this kid a newcomer?"

Kinomoto held a few large boxes of gift boxes, nodded and bowed, and introduced himself: "I am Kinomoto, and I started working at Shuigetsutang the day before yesterday. Please give me more advice in the future."

"Please advise." Kunikida nodded with a serious face, "It's summer, thank you for your hard work, would you like some cold drinks?"

"...the dark circles under your eyes are heavy, Mr. Kunikida." I moved closer, slightly surprised by his rare fatigue, "Have you had a lot of work lately?"

"It's better to say that it's all thanks to that guy Dazai—" He was about to scold his partner, but finally resisted the urge to complain about his colleague in front of Kinomoto who met him for the first time, but after trying to calm down, Tell us about his recent work content: "The amount of commissions this month has doubled compared to usual. After handling the field work, there are still piles of paperwork and reports to be written..."

"It sounds really not easy." Putting the dim sum aside, Kinomoto complained.

"Would you like some sweets to rest?"

"Thank you."

"Mr. Dazai is not here today?" I looked around, "Is everyone on the field today? In such a hot day?"

"Did I just say that? The number of commissions has suddenly increased, and everyone's work schedule is full. The time for eating snacks and drinking tea like this has become a luxury." He said, "Miss Inai brought him here know the way?"

"From now on, Kinomoto-kun will be in charge of delivering the snacks for the detective agency."

"I see, it's not good to bother Ms. Inai all the time. Then Kinomoto-kun, please exchange contact information with our administrative staff."

"It's not a big deal." I said, "If it's really hard work, Kunikida-san is more hardworking."

His answer was as candid as ever: "Our work is of a different nature and there is no comparison."

"Speaking of work." I remembered that when I met Yukimura-san, Dazai mentioned Mr. Kunikida was originally a teacher, "Mr. Kunikida, I have something to ask. And Kinomoto-kun, I also want to hear your advice .”

Kunikida was cleaning the fog from his glasses, but after hearing my words, he straightened his sitting posture and waited for the next sentence.

"I heard from Mr. Dazai that Mr. Kunikida was originally a teacher."

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"No... I want to know how, as a teacher, you deal with conflicts and collisions between students?"

"It depends on the degree of conflict, its cause, what kind of result it will cause, and the personalities of both parties... I can't generalize it. I dare to guess that Ms. Inai wants to ask how to deal with school violence?"

Now that I was seen through, I didn't hide it and told the story of Xuecun again.

He thought about it first, and the brows that were already habitually frowned tightened even more. I was anxiously waiting for Kunikida's answer, and almost held my breath.

"This cannot be attributed to simple school violence. In a broad sense, what everyone thinks of school violence is unilateral oppression, one party exerts absolute pressure and intimidation on the other party, and even causes physical harm. Let me confirm one thing first— —Yukimura-san is not the type to be submissive, is she?"

"So, compared to being bullied unilaterally, it's actually closer to a conflict between the two sides. It's just that Xuecun is in a state of fighting alone, and overall he appears to be more vulnerable."

He stopped and took a sip of tea, "As a former teacher, I know that there are quite a few teachers who just want to calm things down. In case Xuecun's teacher just wants to protect himself and have a kind attitude, it's better not to intervene. Otherwise, it will only intensify the conflict between the two sides."

Kinomoto also agrees very much: "Originally, the two sides maintain a delicate seesaw relationship. Once you join the teacher, and the teacher who can't treat both groups fairly and equitably, things will continue to tilt towards the bad side. If you want to correct it, you have to Spend twice as much energy."

I said: "So, can only Xuecun students handle the conflict by themselves?"

Kunikida shook his head, "It's not a simple choice between 'whether you want to help' or not. The conflict between Yukimura and his classmates does not belong to the simple 'right and wrong' and 'good and bad'... no , it is better to say that all the contradictions between people come from this, and both sides think they are right."

"If one party bullies the other unconditionally, separating them at this time is to protect the weak among them, and from the perspective of the code of conduct, those who intervene are stopped from a moral high point."

"And between Xuecun and his classmates, it is not oppression, but war. Xuecun believes that he is an opponent of the same class as them, not a weak person who is bullied by them."

"For the weak, we can choose to protect her. To intervene in war, we must find the core contradiction and resolve it."

Kinomoto stood aside very carefully, and summed it up like a class representative, "That is to say, the point of conflict must be resolved."

I shook my head, "...that's impossible."

"Let me just ask." Kunikida said, "Miss Inai, do you take it as your own responsibility?"

"what?"

"Do you take Xuecun as your responsibility? Do you think you have to respond 100% to her demands on you?"

【Miss Weiliang, you must understand me, right? 】

This sentence is the strongest curse Yukimura entrusted to me.

"If you really think so, I advise you to reconsider." Kunikida straightened his glasses on the bridge of his nose, "Don't take every person who makes a request to you as your own responsibility. Don't Don't underestimate the weight of people's desires, and don't overestimate your own psychological ability."

"However, it's a good thing to help others. Please don't be bound by my words. I'm sorry, I seem to speak too seriously, and that's probably what I mean." He glanced at the clock on the wall, "Dazai also Be back soon."

As if to prove his words, the door of the detective agency was slammed open, and Dazai and Tanizaki were seen standing at the door with bags full of water vapor.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone, let's eat some ice." Tanizaki wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and someone else took the popsicle from his hand and put it in the refrigerator. Kinomoto also stepped forward to help.

"A face I've never seen before," he said.

"What, what—new here? What, is it a new employee in Ms. Tsutako's shop?" Dazai poked his head out from behind Tanizaki, his fluffy and soft hair was like a dandelion, and he held a half-eaten dandelion in his hand. Popsicle, "Ah, Miss Wuyishi, look at—"

He stuck out his tongue, the coating of which was dyed emerald green by the popsicles.This quirky and playful appearance makes it hard to think that he is an adult male in his 20s.

He turned the popsicle over and licked it——

"It's turning red~" he said, "does it look like a watermelon?"

His sense of accomplishment, innocent appearance is exactly the same as that of elementary school students who will yell when they catch a beetle.

What to do, he is so cute.

"Where are you an elementary school student from?!" Kunikida complained, and took the initiative to accept the job introduction, "This is Kinomoto-kun, working part-time at Miss Tsutako's Suigetsudo. I will hand over the delivery related work to him later. .”

Tanizaki saw Kinomoto, who was about the same age, and said kindly: "Fortunately, the cold drinks and ice cream we bought are sufficient. Kinomoto-kun and Ms. Inai can also eat together."

"I'll avoid it." The subtle pain and soreness in my lower abdomen reminded me that I'm not easy to be greedy for cold today, and drinking two sips of ice water greedily is the limit of my indulgence to myself, "Today I'm preparing dinner, it's almost gone back."

Dazai collapsed on the sofa, biting the popsicle with a loud sound——

"What's for dinner tonight?"

"Curry." I replied subconsciously.

"Curry..."

……

After saying goodbye in front of the detective agency, Tokimoto thought about the side dishes for dinner and walked down the hill.

The scenery I see every day seems to be a little different, not so much different, as it is a sudden sense of disobedience.There was no reason for the strange occurrence. My originally steady pace couldn't help but slow down, and finally I couldn't move half a step anymore.

If I want to say why, it is because beside me, there should be a whole row of high fences, but suddenly there is a huge gap.

To be more precise, there is a house I have never seen before standing here, and the gap is the entrance to the courtyard.

Cherry trees are planted on both sides, and the backyard is green pine. The two-storey quaint building stands quietly in it.

"...Is there such a building here?"

My legs lead me into the house.

The door swung open, and a girl with short pink hair and blue ponytails stood at the door, as if she knew I was coming and was welcoming me.

"My lord has a guest~"

"Guests, please come in~"

The author has something to say:

Here is Kunikida's reminder to Mu Yishi. Although he doesn't know whether Mu Yishi has been influenced by Yukimura, he still reminds her - don't mistake everything for your responsibility.

...if OOC, don't scold me (lay flat)

However, in fact, Wu Yishi was more concerned about Xuecun's affairs, because Xuecun said before leaving that "I have found a better way to communicate with hell". Something was wrong, so she always felt a little uneasy.

This slaughter is so cute (the self-proclaimed old mother shed tears)
