Daily Comics: Mystery Begins from Everyday Life

"Oh, right." Sakurajima Mai suddenly remembered something and said, "Where are the desserts everyone prepared for consolation? Take them out and let Shoko have a taste!"

"Yes!" Upon hearing that, Hinami's eyes lit up, and she jumped into her suitcase first with an expression as if she had almost forgotten about the delicious desserts. She then took out a square paper box of dessert and came in front of Makinohara Shoko.

Soon after, Cang Xingshi and Cui Xingshi also took out an exquisitely wrapped long paper box and a lunch box from their suitcases.

"Shoko Shoko~ These are pine nut cookies, peach tarts, and tiramisu pudding. They are all super delicious!" Hinamichi introduced them while stuffing them into her mouth, and added: "We made these right after lunch. Come and try them... um!"

Before she could finish her words, Shinku pinched Hinami's face, pulled her aside helplessly and taught her a lesson: "This is a gift for Shouko. Have you forgotten your etiquette as a Rozen Maiden?! This is so embarrassing!"

"Well... I was just trying the taste for Shoko..." Hinamichi argued aggrievedly, but she was still smacking her food in her mouth. This answer not only failed to fool Shinku, but instead earned her a more severe reprimand.

After all, Hinami is still very dependent on Shinku. Apart from Luotian, she is the one most disciplined by Shinku.

"Hinamei, you don't know, right? The bad guys who steal snacks from patients will be targeted by the needle monster that draws blood in the hospital!" Cui Xingshi approached Hinami in a sinister manner, not missing any opportunity to tease her. "The needle monster will pierce your butt where you are most afraid of pain, and draw all the blood out of your body, leaving you wrinkled!"

"Well... Tsui Xingshi, you are such a bad guy... Well..." Before Hinami could finish her words, a mouthful of cookies was stuffed into her mouth. At the same time, Tsui Xingshi's sinister laughter was heard, "Hehehe! Eat more! The needle monster will find you at night and quietly drain all the blood in your body!"

"Ugh... No no!" Hinami always fell for the teasing from the Emerald Star Stone, and hid behind Shinku tremblingly.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on the innocent Hinamei. The main reason is that Cuixingshi’s sinister atmosphere is very good and he is very good at playing teasing people.

"Cui Xingshi..." Cang Xingshi couldn't bear watching from the side and pulled the corner of Cui Xingshi's clothes.

"Yes, yes, I understand." Cui Xingshi glanced at the shivering Hinamichi and smiled with satisfaction.

"Ah..." Canary took out a lot of disposable paper plates and small spoons from her suitcase, and said while cutting the tiramisu pudding: "You guys are still so childish. When will you be as mature as me?"

"Thank you, Canary!" Shoko Makinohara took the tiramisu pudding handed to her by Canary and thanked her politely.

"You're welcome. This is prepared for you." After saying that, Canary handed the second piece of pudding to Sakurajima Mai.

"Thank you~" Sakurajima Mai took the pudding on the paper plate and praised: "Canary is really a reliable sister~"

"Hehe! Of course!" Canary raised her little head and said, "Although I'm not the number one puppet, I am the smartest and most noble lady among the Rose Maidens!"

As Canary boasted, Shinku and the others rolled their eyes, as if to say, 'Ah... this idiot has started again...'

Soon, as the little farce ended, everyone sat together in the ward and savored the desserts made by Tsui Xingshi and Zhen Hong and others.

"How is it? How does it taste?" Sakurajima Mai looked at Makinohara Shoko.

"Hmm! It tastes great!" 3.1 Makinohara Shoko squinted her eyes and tasted the tiramisu pudding and said, "It's smooth and tender, and it tastes like cherry~"

"Cherry flavor?" Cui Xingshi, who was eating peach tart, looked at Zhenhong and asked, "Zhenhong, you made the pudding, right? Why did it become cherry flavored pudding?"

"I don't know, I added the ingredients in the order you said." Zhenhong was also stunned, puzzled by the sudden change of the pudding from sweet to sweet and sour.

"If it's not your problem..."

"So... the question is..."

At this point, Tsuseishi and Shinku both looked at the cute Hinamichi in the pink dress.

"Shoko Shoko~ Cherry-flavored pudding is great! I added cherry juice to the milk on purpose!"

"Hmm, it's delicious~" Shoko Makinohara squinted her eyes, savoring the sweet and sour pudding that she had never eaten before.

"What about Mai? Do you like to eat?" Hinami looked at Sakurajima Mai innocently.

"Of course I like it~ It tastes delicious~" Sakurajima Mai replied in a gentle voice.

Meanwhile, Tsuseishi and Shinku, who were listening to Hinami's triumphant confession, found the murderer.

Chapter 270 Sweet and Sour Taste

"I knew it was this idiot who did it!" Cui Xingshi raised his eyebrows and looked at the laughing Hinami with some anger.

"Oh... How strange." Zhenhong looked at the Emerald Star Stone in surprise.

"What do you do?" Cui Xingshi asked.

"Aren't you going to teach a lesson to the guy who changed the taste of your dessert without permission?" Zhenhong asked with a smile.

"Hmph~ I'm not stupid. Didn't you notice that Shoko really likes cherry-flavored pudding?" Cui Xingshi raised her head proudly. Although she usually liked to tease Hinami, the sisters still got along very well and could clearly distinguish right from wrong.

After all, the original intention of the Verdurin Star Stone was to let Shoko Makinohara taste delicious desserts. Although Hinami added cherry juice on her own initiative, she accidentally chose the flavor that Shoko Makinohara liked.

The purpose of letting Makinohara Shoko taste the dessert was achieved, so when asked by Shinku, Tsui Seishi acted so proud. Although he was a bit sinister in nature, he was not stupid at all.

"I see. It seems that Hinami's mischief may not be a bad thing." said Shinku.

"This is just a coincidence... How can I always be so lucky?" Cui Xingshi crossed his arms, and his serious look caught the eyes of Makinohara Shoko and Sakurajima Mai.

But the two did not interrupt, just listened quietly, and at the same time understood how this sweet and sour pudding came about.

At the same time, Canary, who had distributed the Buttercup, came to the two people, holding two portions.

"Zhenhong, Cuixingshi, come and have some pudding." Canary shared the pudding between the two.

"Thank you." Zhenhong took it and thanked him.

"Canary, have you divided them all?" asked Cuixingshi.

"Well, there just happens to be one for everyone." Canary replied.

"What about father?" asked Emerald Star Stone 01 again.

"Don't worry, it's already been reserved." Canary waved her hand confidently and raised her head as if she had planned everything out.

"I don't know when father will come back..." Cang Xingshi said.

Hearing Cang Xingshi mention Luotian, the others were also stunned.

"How about we wait for Luotian-san..." Makinohara Shoko put down the spoon a little embarrassedly, and even forgot to wipe off the cocoa powder on the corner of her mouth.

"It's okay, this was originally prepared for you." Sakurajima Mai said with a smile.

"How can I do this..." Makinohara Shoko shook her head and said, "If I leave Luotian, who got the medicine for me, to enjoy the dessert alone because of this reason, then I am really selfish."

"Is that so?" Cang Xingshi was a little confused, not knowing how such a conclusion was reached.

"Eh? Does this count as abandoning?" Hinami was also very confused, her simple little brain couldn't figure it out.

"Shoko, this dessert was prepared for you, you should enjoy it." said Shinku.

"But..." Makinohara Shoko paused and said, "I still want to wait for Luotian, otherwise I will feel bad... Mai..."

As Makinohara Shoko shouted, everyone's eyes fell on Sakurajima Mai.

"Well, since Shouko thinks it's right for everyone to enjoy dessert together, I have no objection." Sakurajima Mai did not force anything, but stood up from the sofa and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

"Mai, come back soon!" Hinamichi reminded.

"Yeah." Sakurajima Mai responded softly and then walked out of the ward.

"call..."

Standing in the corridor outside the ward, Mai Sakurajima let out a long sigh and murmured with a slightly strange expression: "I actually have a strange sense of crisis towards Shoko... Is it because of Luotian..."

"But I don't have this feeling towards Yui, Ichika, and Yukinoshita..."

Mai Sakurajima clenched her hands, her expression showing some inexplicable concern, but she didn't know yet that one day in the future, this sense of crisis would become a reality.

Am I thinking too much?

Luotian clearly said that he doesn't like junior high school students...

With such thoughts in mind, Sakurajima Mai took the elevator straight down to the first floor.

When Sakurajima Mai came to the first floor, she happened to see Luotian pushing away the girl who was blocking his way and walking towards the pharmacy.

Seeing this, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Sakurajima Mai's eyes. She stopped planning to step forward and question her, and just watched.

At this time, Luotian had already arrived at the pharmacy window and handed over the prescription.

After a while...

"Hello, the total cost of the medicine is 30,000 yen."

"Give..."

At the pharmacy window, Luotian handed over three 10,000 yen bills, and then received the three medicines prescribed by the pharmacy.

One bottle of oral anticoagulant, one bottle of vitamin E, and two bottles of intravenous nutrient solution.

"Tsk..."

This medicine costs 30,000 yen, which is more profitable than making dolls...

Luo Tian was holding a small plastic bag and shaking it, sighing as he walked. Not long after, a familiar voice sounded in front of him, "Thank you for your hard work. Is there anything wrong with the medicine?"

"Mai-san." Luo Tian raised his head, looked at the beautiful girl in front of him with some surprise and asked, "Why did you come down?"

"Come and see if you're chatting up another girl." Mai Sakurajima said jokingly.

"Oh, how is that possible!" Luo Tian raised his eyebrows, took Sakurajima Mai's hand and walked towards the elevator, "Am I such a casual person? Can't I be approached by someone?"

"Sure enough..." Sakurajima Mai looked at Luotian with a subtle tone, as if waiting for Luotian's explanation.

"Don't worry, it's not what you think." Luo Tian explained with a serious face: "Look at all the people in the payment hall. I just picked up a diary while waiting in line and returned it to someone."

"Really? You would be so straightforward? You didn't take the opportunity to make any weird requests?" Sakurajima Mai asked three questions in a row, obviously she was very concerned about what she had just seen.

"No." Luo Tian shrugged slightly and said, "But she is quite pitiful. She was diagnosed with cancer."

"What...cancer..." Sakurajima Mai was stunned and understood what cancer meant.

"Ding dong~"

"Well, pancreatic cancer is a type of cancer that has almost no therapeutic effect in medicine." As he said that, Luotian pulled Sakurajima Mai into the elevator.

"She looks the same age as us." Sakurajima Mai muttered.

"You saw it." Luo Tian chuckled.

"Yeah, I just happened to see you getting the medicine." Sakurajima Mai did not hide it, "That girl's uniform seems to be from our Tokyo Comprehensive High School as well."

"I guess so. I didn't pay much attention." Luotian shrugged. After all, that kind of white shirt uniform was definitely not only available in the school they attended.

"You are really careless..." Sakurajima Mai complained.

"Haha!" Luo Tian laughed, raised his hand and wiped the corner of Sakurajima Mai's mouth, and said: "I don't think I'm as careless as Mai, right? Yes! It's cocoa powder!"

"Uh...you...!" Sakurajima Mai looked at Luotian putting the cocoa powder he had wiped off the corner of her mouth into her mouth, and her pretty face instantly blushed. It was obvious that she didn't expect Luotian to be so bold.

"Mai-san..." Luotian suddenly hugged Sakurajima Mai, lowered his head slightly and smelled the fragrance emanating from her soft hair.

"You...what are you doing..." Sakurajima Mai suddenly felt embarrassed. Although there were only two of them in the elevator, she still felt nervous and expectant.

"Mai-san, how does the tiramisu pudding taste?" Luotian asked while blowing hot air into Sakurajima Mai's ear.

"Hmm..." Sakurajima Mai shuddered and said softly, "Sour...sour and sweet..."

"Really? Then I have to try it~" Luotian said softly.

"I came down to find you because everyone is waiting for you to eat together...hmm!" Before she could finish her words, Sakurajima Mai was kissed on the lips, and she could only stare at Luotian with her eyes full of beauty.

The elevator did not stop and slowly rose to the fifth floor.

"Ding dong..."

The elevator door opened, and a pretty girl with a slightly blushing face and a boy who was smacking his lips and savoring something walked out of the elevator.

“It tastes pretty good.”

"Abnormal Falling Sky..."

Sakurajima Mai glared at Luotian, it was obvious that she had no way to deal with Luotian.

“Hehe!” Luo Tian said smugly, “Now this pervert has stuck to you, you can’t get rid of him!”

"Really..." Mai Sakurajima forced herself to be serious and said in an adult manner, "I really indulged you too much..."

"Ah, thank you for your indulgence, Mai-san. Please continue to treat me like this in the future!" Luotian clasped his hands together with a smile and prayed to the helpless girl in front of him.

"Really? What do you think I am?!" Mai Sakurajima was amused. She pulled Luo Tian and said, "The most important thing now is to go back to the ward. Everyone is waiting for you to have dessert together!"

"Wait for me? But aren't we here to visit Xiangzi?" Luotian asked puzzledly.

"It was Shoko who said she would wait for you! And if you don't wait, you're being too selfish..."

"What is this concept?"

"how could I know..."

Sakurajima Mai rolled her eyes at Luotian, her tone somewhat unhappy.
