Bai Chuan was slightly stunned. Faced with such an invitation, he could not refuse.

It seems that tonight I can only stop going to Qianxue Mei's house for a meal and go somewhere else.

After receiving Shirakawa's affirmative reply, Ueio Miko smiled sweetly, then left to prepare the ingredients for dinner.

At 6 o'clock in the evening, Shirakawa came to the house of Mrs. Kamio on the fifth floor as a guest.

Masumi Ueio was wearing a pink Lolita dress today, looking like an exquisite doll.

Her red leather shoes are very conspicuous, reminiscent of the red dancing shoes in fairy tales.

Wearing red leather shoes, Kamio Masumi came to Shirakawa's side.

"Big brother, why didn't you bring big sister with you?"

"Am I the only one not welcome?"

"That's not true. I'm just afraid that my eldest brother won't be strong enough and will be impressed by my mother's charm."

Masumi Kamio showed a proud smile.

Bai Chuan rubbed the little Loli's hair, and she made a proud hum.

In the kitchen, Mrs. Ueio's gentle voice came out, "Kuragi-kun and Masumi-chan will watch TV for a while. There are about ten minutes left. Dinner will be ready."

Masumi Kamio immediately replied to her mother, "Okay, Mom, I will entertain the guests well."

After she finished speaking, she took Bai Chuan to visit her home.

Although they are all summer apartments, the apartment of Masumi Kamio's house is relatively large, with three bedrooms, two living rooms, and a spacious balcony with a view. On weekdays, only two mothers and daughters live there, so it seems a bit empty.

Ueio Masumi took Shirakawa to Ueo Miko's study and whispered,

"Shh, mom usually doesn't let me go in to cause trouble. I brought you here mainly to see mom's works."

Masumi Kamio pushed up his black-rimmed glasses, opened the door like a thief, and pulled Shirakawa into the study.

There are many books on the bookshelves in the study room, one of which is the collection of Miko Ueoo's works.

Masumi Ueoo proudly introduced these novels.

Bai Chuan also politely echoed her,

"Mrs. Ueio is really amazing, she has written so many books."

"Yes, she is indeed my mother."

Masumi Kamio said proudly.

Bai Chuan glanced at the books on the bookshelf, and most of them were suspense books.

The latest book is called "The Murderer."

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Ueio is good at this type of novel.

In addition to Mrs. Ueio's 12 novels, there are many books on the bookshelves divided into categories.

They range from novels to geography.

Suddenly, his eyes stopped on a book called "The Human Chair".

The familiar narration voice sounded in my ears again.

[Do you think the real leader of the serial murder case is the intellectual and beautiful Mrs. Ueio? Or is it Matsuno Tajiro who is willing to devote everything to her? 】

The mastermind behind No. 1?

In the bookstore filled with the scent of pine wood, Masumi Ueoo was still talking about her mother's famous works with great interest.

Bai Chuan felt a slight chill on his back, and his pupils shrank involuntarily.

Mrs. Ueio, is she the mastermind behind this?

She took the lead in all this and even disguised herself and her daughter as victims.

All the evidence points to Matsuno Tajiro. Fingerprints, confessions, crime tools, and motives have nothing to do with the gentle and kind-hearted Mrs. Ueio.

She even filed a missing persons case because her nanny disappeared without any reason.

The police also suspected her and conducted surveillance and investigation on her, but found nothing. They only proved her kindness and innocence.

"More than half of the royalties for the books written by my mother were donated to charities. There is an orphanage named after my mother."

"Mom also likes to rescue stray cats and dogs in the neighborhood. Big brother, are you listening?"

"So, is my mother the greatest mother in the world?"

The proud Ueio Masumi was completely unaware of Shirakawa's mood swings. She was as if she were meeting her best friend and was eager to show off her most proud treasure.

Bai Chuan stretched out his hand and touched the cover of "The Human Chair".

Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded from behind,

"Kuragi-kun, it's a bad habit to flip through other people's books at will."

If it weren't for the psychological quality honed over many years as a criminal police officer, Bai Chuan felt that he would have been scared out of Parkinson's disease on the spot.

He withdrew his hand and looked back at Miko Ueno, who was smiling.

Ueio Masumi has already rushed into her mother's arms and started acting like a baby.

"Mom, I brought my eldest brother here to visit, otherwise how could he believe how great my mother is."

"Masumi-chan, showing off is not a good habit."

Ueio Miko pinched Ueio Masumi's little face dotingly.

Ueio Masumi stuck out her tongue, "Okay, Mom, I know I was wrong."

Ueio Miko made a sumptuous dinner, but Shirakawa's mind was no longer on dinner.

After dinner, Shirakawa said goodbye to Ueno and his daughter and returned to his apartment.

I searched for the author introduction about Miko Ueio on my mobile phone. There was a video interview in it that caught Shirakawa's attention.

Female host: "Teacher Meiko, the characterizations in each of your novels pay great attention to detailed descriptions. They are so vivid that they give people a sense of immersion. The level of delicacy of descriptions cannot be matched by others. How do you do it?" of?"

Miko Ueoo: "The most important thing is experience. When I write each novel, I try to experience the life of the protagonist and simulate their mental state and behavioral patterns. For example, the heroine in "The War of Kindness" has a very special personality. He is kind and can’t help but sympathize with homeless people on the street and take them home to rest, which is what I tried.”

Female host: "Oh my God, did you really invite a homeless man to your home? Then he didn't do anything to you, right?"

Miko Ueio: "Not all homeless people have despicable characters. I happened to meet a gentleman who was once a successful investor. He went bankrupt due to the stock market crash and later contracted lung disease and was unable to do anything. He was engaged in high-intensity work and therefore became a homeless man with nothing. I gave him a meal, let him bathe, and trimmed his hair. After he thanked me, he left without any extra details. I guess he should Will start from scratch and start a new journey.

He brought me a lot of inspiration. Here, Meiko also calls on everyone to care more and question less people at the bottom of society. Their only sin may be poverty. "

Female host: "Teacher Meiko is so kind. I heard that your next book has been decided to be a crime theme. This should be very challenging for you, right?"

Ueio Miko smiled and said nothing, and the hostess continued,

"Do you also want to experience a crime?"

Uemio Miko: "Maybe if necessary."

Female host: "Haha, Teacher Meiko is really humorous. With your character, you can't bear to step on an ant to death, right? How can you experience crime?"

Miko Ueoo: "I will probably just sit on the sidelines and look for inspiration from past cases."

"Maybe if necessary..."

Shirakawa repeated this sentence and then searched for "The Murderer", the latest novel published by Miko Ueio.

The introduction to the novel is just a simple sentence. This is a story about a murderer, and there may be some unknown secret behind it.

This perfunctory introduction could not bring any information to Baichuan, so he chose to order a copy of "The Murderer" from the online mall.

Putting down his mobile phone, Bai Chuan walked into the toilet with a swollen head, turned on the faucet on the sink, and kept slapping cold water on his face.

Amidst the snapping sounds, Bai Chuan's thoughts gradually calmed down.

Ueio Miko is truly a more dangerous existence than Mrs. Suzume.

So, could it be Miko Ueio who framed him for the murder?

[You are very nervous. You need to relax. Maybe you need the comfort of Qianyuki Mei. Her soft body and heavenly voice are indispensable. 】

Bai Chuan rubbed his throbbing temples and saw a text message alert appear on the screen of his phone.

Qianyuki Mei: [Kuragi-kun, why didn’t you come over for dinner tonight? ]

Baichuan washed his face, changed into clean home clothes, walked to room 1003 next door, and rang the doorbell.

Chiyuki Mei opened the door after seeing through the peephole that it was Shirakawa.

"I thought you weren't coming."

"The food you cook is to my taste. I'm considering whether to hire you as my cook in the future."

Bai Chuan said with a smile.

When facing Qianyuki Mei, he felt much more relaxed.

Chiyuki Meiyi did not continue, but turned around and walked to the kitchen, took out the food from the refrigerator and put it in the microwave to heat it up.

Although she guessed that Bai Chuan would not come, she still left a portion for him.

It takes an average person 13 days to develop a good habit, but it only took Mei Chiyuki three days.

Ten minutes later, Shirakawa finished the miso soup and salmon bibimbap.

Chiyuki Mei realized that something seemed wrong with Shirakawa's mood. She walked to the piano, sat down slowly, and ran her slender fingers over the black and white keys.

Soft and soothing piano music enveloped Bai Chuan,

It relaxed his tired spirit.

Unconsciously, he fell asleep on the sofa.

Chiyuki Mei stopped playing, walked quietly to Shirakawa, and covered him with a blanket.

She was curled up on the other end of the sofa, silently flipping through a love science book called "Heartbeat Signals".

Bai Chuan slept until 10 o'clock in the evening before waking up.

He found Qianyuki Mei's little feet lying quietly in his arms.

It seems that he subconsciously hugged these perfect feet while sleeping. Fortunately, he didn't do anything more excessive, otherwise the 35 favorability points he finally got will definitely drop.

Taking advantage of Shirakawa's awakening, Chiyuki Mei quickly retracted her feet, covered "Heartbeat Signal" with an English book, and said coldly,

"Kuragi-kun, go back as soon as you wake up. I need to rest too."

"I'm sorry, I actually fell asleep. You play the piano really well. I'll look for you when I have trouble sleeping in the future."

Baichuan stood up and stretched as he spoke, feeling exhausted.

Chiyuki Mei didn't say anything, but peeked at Shirakawa from the corner of her eye. She didn't put down her English book with a sigh of relief until she saw him turn around and leave.

Suddenly, Bai Chuan turned around.

Chiyuki Mei quickly raised her English book again.

Bai Chuan let out a hearty laugh.

I have already seen "Heartbeat Signal".

It is indeed a book for young girls.

Qianxue Meiyi's cheeks suddenly turned red with embarrassment, she threw the book aside, stepped on her slippers, rushed back to her room, and closed the door without leaving any gaps.
