Chapter 274: Chapter 213: Beichuan Hui Li and Nakajima Michika (4000 words)

Beichuan Hui Li’s smug expression didn’t last long before she suppressed it, sighing heavily as if her heart was heavier than death.

Otomo Ai, who was sitting beside her, keenly noticed the change in her expression and asked with some curiosity, "Hui Li, aren’t you not worried about Brother Temple?"

After all, they were siblings. Despite saying she wasn’t worried earlier, it now seemed like Beichuan Hui Li was indeed concerned about Beichuan Si.

Thinking like this, Otomo Ai then heard Beichuan Hui Li’s lamenting voice, "Brother Temple told me not to frequently invite Mirai to our house... But now we’ve already invited her over four or five times, this is terrible, I’m definitely going to get a beating from Brother Temple."

"That’s what you’re worried about?" Otomo Ai’s mouth twitched violently.

"What else should I be worried about?" Beichuan Hui Li retorted with sound logic.

Her overly righteous demeanor left Otomo Ai and the other three momentarily speechless.

Beichuan Si getting implicated in a basement corpse-hiding case didn’t worry Beichuan Hui Li, a shooting incident didn’t worry Beichuan Hui Li, she only worried about whether she would be beaten up—

Wasn’t that a bit too absurd?

Sakura Miori and the others also exchanged perplexed glances.

"Being Hui Li’s brother requires a particularly strong heart, otherwise, I feel like one day she’ll be the death of him," Sakurai Saki murmured to herself.

The other three nodded in strong agreement with what Sakurai Saki said.

Only Beichuan Hui Li was left sighing, signaling a bleak future.

Setting aside the ’Salty Egg Sister’ for now, the scene shifts elsewhere.

Kyubei High School, Chairman’s Office.

"I’ll leave Beichuan’s matter in your hands, Chairman Yamazaki."

Gangye Yoshiko thanked him politely.

"No worries, no worries, a school student aiding the police causing a delay in classes is an unforeseeable emergency, understandable. Take care, Ms. Gangye," said Chairman Yamazaki amiably.

After exchanging goodbyes, Gangye Yoshiko left the principal’s office.

Outside the principal’s office, Beichuan Si was fiddling with his phone. As soon as he saw Gangye Yoshiko emerge, he pocketed his phone and gave her a sidelong glance, "You’ve been troubled by this matter."

Hearing this, Gangye Yoshiko couldn’t help but grin, "Beichuan, is this what you had me do for you? What do you take me for?"

What do you take me for?...

Beichuan Si stroked his chin, indifferent to Gangye Yoshiko’s half-angered demeanor.

If Gangye Yoshiko hadn’t come forward for him, his own unwarranted absence could indeed have meant repeating eleventh grade with Beichuan Hui Li.

This was what Beichuan Si quietly thought to himself. Outwardly, though, he thanked her with an unemotional voice, "Thanks, Liangzi."

Tsk...

Gangye Yoshiko couldn’t help but scratch her head.

Beichuan Si’s unyielding attitude frustrated her, but she quickly thought of something else and approached Beichuan Si with a mysteriously smug smile,

"Speaking of which, Kyubei High is about to have its first round of tests, right? Beichuan, haven’t you not been studying for so long, is that really okay?"

"It’s fine," Beichuan Si replied without a sideways glance.

Gangye Yoshiko didn’t take his answer seriously, assuming Beichuan Si was just putting on a brave face.

After all, how many students are there in the world who can score well without studying hard?

Beichuan Si caught every change in Gangye Yoshiko’s expression.

He couldn’t be bothered to argue, as it was pointless to dispute with Gangye Yoshiko.

In the end, performing up to his own expectations in the tests would suffice.

In the past five days, Beichuan Si had managed to accomplish a few tasks.

He first assisted the police in digging up some dirt on the Second Psychiatric Hospital, then went through an interrogation and a confession process, during which the value of the recordings as evidence was confirmed.

Afterwards, Hirakawa Ichiro transferred him 1.5 million yen, stating that he hadn’t expected Suzuki Fumi to be that sort of person, and considered the money as Beichuan Si’s running-around fee.

In the realm of buying people’s hearts, Hirakawa Ichiro seemed to have considerable experience...

After dealing with all these various matters, Beichuan Si even found time to visit Mother Kawakami Nami, who was lying in a hospital bed.

She was a middle-aged woman who, they said, had suffered from overexertion in her early years, which led to an abrupt cerebral hemorrhage that compressed some nerves, causing her to remain comatose in the hospital.

Beichuan Si had spent so much time because he was using Necromancy to treat her.

But Beichuan Si couldn’t say for sure whether Mother Kawakami would wake up.

She might lie in bed forever or she might open her eyes. However, the harsh reality that Mother Kawakami would face upon opening her eyes—

Beichuan Si stopped walking, turned his head, and said, "I’m off to class, Liangzi."

"Tsk... After all the trouble I’ve gone through for you, you—" Gangye Yoshiko cut herself off, waving her hand impatiently, "Never mind, just go, get out of my sight."

She watched Beichuan Si turn towards the main educational building, then shook her head in amusement, "At times like this, you’d realize that Beichuan is still just a high school student."

With a strange sense of wonder, Gangye Yoshiko slowly made her way out of Kyubei High.

...

Beichuan Si had returned to Kyubei!

The news spread like wildfire throughout the school as if it had grown wings.

This was a classic case of bad news traveling fast.

But Beichuan Si didn’t care about that.

The first thing Beichuan Si did upon returning to Kyubei was to find Shen Gu Mirai and inquire about the recent condition of both Nakajima Michika and Beichuan Hui Li.
