I'm in Mihua, and all the ladies like me.

Chapter 227 Kyoto, Ooka Family

The first night Serabel spent in Osaka passed like this.

It was ten o'clock in the morning the next day. On the platform of the Osaka High Speed ​​Rail Station, the blazing sunlight shone through the glass skylight of the dome above the station, forming patches of light on the heads of the moving people.

According to the estimated time, the train will arrive at the station in about 10 minutes.

Serabel was very stupid and did not squeeze into the front row with other passengers. Instead, she found a small corner where there was no direct sunlight and air conditioning.

Also following were Sera Masumi, Xiaolan Yuanzi and others.

"I thought I would fly back directly by airship when I went back, but I didn't expect to take the high-speed rail... Also, there are too many people catching the high-speed rail, right?"

Sera Masumi turned her head left and right and looked around at the bustling crowd of passengers, and couldn't help but complain.

Sonoko smiled and shrugged when he heard this, but he didn't take it seriously: "Well, it's like this here in Japan, and if you fly back, it will be too slow, and it will take another six hours. In comparison, taking the Shinkansen is faster. It’s much more. You can basically get back to Tokyo in two hours. Unless you’re flying at this speed, you won’t be able to go that fast even if you drive by yourself and step on the accelerator.”

"Oh yes..."

Sera Masumi nodded in agreement.

At this time, Xiaolan, who had been staring at her cell phone, suddenly let out a sigh.

"There's already news, it's already trending."

"Nani Nani? What hot search do you want me to see?"

"It's just what happened yesterday..."

Seeing that a simple sentence aroused the interest of the two friends, Xiaolan simply turned sideways and stretched out her arms, adjusting the phone to an angle suitable for Sera Masumi and Sonoko to see.

"Look, it's all been reported, from the red Siamese cat attacking the airship to being subdued and arrested. There are even photos from the celebration banquet in Osaka last night!"

Scroll down from the news title and you will see that the background of the first two photos is still on an airship.

The first photo is an ampoule with a red Siamese cat logo on it, filled with a fluorescent green liquid that looks like a biochemical weapon but is actually full of raw lacquer.

The second photo shows the terrorists being subdued and tied up.

In the third photo, the background was changed to the Conrad Hotel last night, which happened to be the scene where Suzuki Jiroyoshi and Hattori Heizo shook hands.

Sera Masumi stared at the photo of shaking hands for a second, and suddenly a big cat turned its head to a young boy behind him who was leaning against the wall in a daze.

"Brother, you are on the news!"

"……what?"

Serabel was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses. It took her a blink of an eye to clear her thoughts and then walked up quickly.

"Where? No way?"

"Look."

Sera Masumi borrowed the phone from Xiaolan, stretched out her arm and pushed the news picture in front of the boy. At the same time, the index finger of her other hand went around the side of the phone and pointed at the familiar side face in the lower left corner of the photo on the screen.

Uh--

Serabel recognized that face at a glance. Although the angle was a bit tricky, she could still clearly see the outline of the lips and bridge of the nose, as well as the plain eyes that looked like a determined face.

Well, that's indeed him.

But don’t TV reporters today understand what it means to highlight key points? When taking important photos, it’s a compulsory course in photography not to include irrelevant content, right?

Forget it, I'm not a secretive person anyway.

It shouldn't be a big problem.

……

At the same time, Kyoto was fifty kilometers away from Osaka.

Arashiyama in Kyoto has been the residence of many Japanese nobles since the Heian period. It is famous for its maple leaves and cherry blossoms. Every autumn, the mountains and fields are covered with red maples. It is a must-visit place when traveling to Kyoto.

And just like a tourist resort, surrounded by mountains of red maples, a large-scale classic Japanese-style ancient house with a long history is quietly located in it.

Pavilions with white walls and green tiles, bamboo shadows swaying and koi carps playing.

It is completely in the style of traditional Japanese aristocrats.

Walking through the long corridor of the old house and arriving at a Japanese-style room in the southeast corner, a beautiful young girl with short curly brown hair was sitting on the tatami. She was wearing a kimono painted with red maple leaves, showing her ladylike style. The belt between the waist outlines the waist and makes the already majestic upper body look even more magnificent.

Even if this scene were said to be a scene of a certain daimyo's daughter in a Japanese Warring States drama, no one would doubt it.

Of course, the premise is that you have to ignore the suit butler who just walked in next to the girl, and the tablet computer that the butler is handing over.

"Miss, I brought the tablet for you."

"Thank you, Iori."

The girl thanked the housekeeper in a Kyoto-style accent, then took the tablet with her left hand and lightly touched the screen browser with the tip of her right index finger.

"Hmm~ It's the Suzuki family again, let me see what they came up with this time?"

Exactly the same news, exactly the same layout and photos.

Although there are a few typos and individual wording errors between the lines, it can be seen that Director Shuikawa probably compiled the photos and articles in the hotel overnight and submitted them to the Japanese TV station, so there are many obvious signs of rush work. But fortunately it doesn't affect reading very much.

"So it turns out that it has something to do with the red Siamese cat."

After a brief glance, the girl quickly understood the general content of the news.

The butler named Iori coughed lightly and added: "It is said that this airship was originally prepared by the Suzuki family to fight against Kaitou Kidd, but it seems to have backfired. For some reason, Kaitou Kidd did not show up this time, and was instead used by the previous one. The red Siamese cat that robbed Nishitama City's Biological Research Institute was targeted. How it was solved was not mentioned in the news, but the Suzuki family must have their own security force."

"The security force...?"

The girl's green fingertips touched the tablet screen, raised the corners of her lips and shook her head slightly.

Butler Iori was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything more.

Seemingly sensing Iori's inner doubts, the girl explained without hesitation.

"Did you see this photo of a Suzuki consultant shaking hands with the Hattori Headquarters? In the background, the east side of the hall is full of employees wearing Suzuki Foundation uniforms, while most of the employees on the west side are in casual clothes. However, looking at the entire east side, there are no employees. Anyone who looks like a bodyguard."

Iori seemed to have some understanding: "That is to say..."

"That means someone else should have helped the Suzuki Consortium resolve this crisis."

The girl smiled slightly and released her left hand from the screen.

"As for who it is, just do a little research on the people who have been closely associated with the Suzuki Consortium in recent times and you will know."

"understood."

The housekeeper bowed slightly when he heard this, then stood up and retreated.

Quietness returned to the Japanese room. After pausing for a while, the girl breathed a sigh of relief and put down the tablet in her hand. She was about to stretch her body, but she accidentally caught a glimpse of the lower left corner of the photo on the tablet screen that had been covered by her left thumb. Half of the profile looks familiar.

"Hey, this person seems to be..."?

Chapter 228 Teacher Judy

In the blink of an eye, two days have passed since they returned from Osaka. Since the summer vacation ended more than a week ago, Sera Masumi and Sono Koran and others quickly returned to Kubi's high school life.

Of course, saying it's harder than it is is just an exaggeration.

At least if Japanese high school students don't plan to enroll in prestigious universities, they usually have relatively ample time to develop their other interests after completing the school's courses.

For example, read books, play football, etc. If you can become famous, you can even form a band and become an idol.

But if you want to get into a prestigious university, it will be more miserable. Not only do you have no time to join various interest clubs in school, but you also have to go to private schools with high tuition fees for tutoring after school.

Fortunately, Sera Masumi is not among the top scorers. Although her grades in school are actually quite good, her attitude towards studying is to focus on passing the test.

After finishing the homework, I never turn to the book. When the exam is coming, I don’t know what to review.

Anyway, Akai Marie is quite open-minded and will be overly disciplined as long as her grades are okay.

So when Sera Bell returned to her hotel suite Thursday evening, Mari Akai was busy in the kitchen.

But the Huya girl who had finished her homework in the living room was actually sitting on the sofa with an English book in her hand and staring at it seriously, her lips moving as if she was silently reciting something.

Serabel was decisively shocked.

Isn’t this Long Live... Ah no, isn’t this Huya?

After being shocked, he decided to test the question and carefully considered his words.

"Masumi, why are you so... uh, working hard today?"

"Hmm~"

What came in response was the feeble voice of the tiger-toothed girl.

The next second, I saw Sera Masumi put down the textbook in her hand, and a little aggrieved face with tears in the corners of her eyes was revealed from behind the cover.

"Berni (short for Ni-chan)~ Let me tell you a scary thing. Our school has changed to a foreign English teacher in the past two days. I originally thought that my English subject would be the least problematic, but..."

"but?"

Serabel put a question mark.

"But this English teacher is an American!"

As if a switch had been turned on, Sera Masumi threw the textbook aside and completely turned on the talking mode.

"Brother, you know, there is a big difference in pronunciation between British English and American English. And this foreign English teacher especially likes to ask me questions. As soon as I speak British English, she starts to tell me the same words in American English. How to pronounce words is not necessarily annoying, but it is very troublesome."

Serabel suggested: "Then you might as well use London gangster accent to gesture at her..."

"How could I possibly do something like that!"

The Huya girl rejected this completely unreliable proposal without thinking for a second.

The crazy progress bar increases by ten percent.

But Sera Masumi calmed down quickly.

"Well, but the foreign teacher in charge is quite responsible. He teaches very seriously every day, although it makes people a little drowsy, and he has a great figure."

After speaking, she also drew an illusory and perfect arc on her chest.

Serabel imagined it based on this size for a moment, and then shook her head inwardly.

Not as good as Sister Mary before the shrinkage.

"Oh yes, one more thing."

After beeping about the new English teacher in the school, Sera Masumi seemed to suddenly remember that there was something else that he had not said.

"Because the day after tomorrow is the weekend, Ran, Sonoko and the others have asked me to go to a video game store in Mihua Town after school tomorrow. Brother, do you want to come too?"

"Ah? I can't do it, right?"

Serabel subconsciously wanted to refuse.

It's not that he has Shuangge Syndrome and is allergic to environments with mostly women, but that he really isn't very interested in places like video game stores.

However, at the same time, Akai Marie, who happened to have finished her work in the kitchen, came out with the dishes and added a comment in a neutral tone after hearing the conversation between the two.

"It doesn't matter if you go occasionally. Anyway, Bell, you're not particularly busy with work now."

……Eh?

Serabel almost thought she heard wrongly, turned her head and looked at the blond British girl behind her who was holding a dinner plate for two seconds, and then turned back to Sera Masumi on the sofa.

Emmm——

"All right?"

"Great!"

Although there was an obvious sense of uncertainty in Serabel's final tone, Sera Masumi undoubtedly took this as a positive answer. She excitedly jumped three feet high from the sofa, took the former's arm and He hugged his chest firmly.

It feels solid to the touch.

Akai Marie, who also saw this scene, frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. She just turned around and put the dinner on the table and said to wash her hands quickly.

……

On Friday, Sera Bell arrived at the gate of Didan High School at 04:30 in the afternoon, which was the time for the homecoming students to get out of school.

However, as mentioned above, because most Japanese high school students participate in some extracurricular activities after class, the number of students walking out of school and going home at this point is not large, and it is not so crowded that you can see it at a glance.

In fact, it stands to reason that Xiaolan, as the leader of the school's karate club, also has after-school club activities. However, because she made an appointment to go to the video game store in Mihua Town today, she specifically asked for leave from the club and left school early.
