Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 589, The Counterattack Begins Now!
Uesugi Muneyuki's visit to Karuizawa was not primarily for vacation, but rather to avoid the limelight.

He offended Foreign Minister Akimoto too badly in this matter, so he had to lay low for the time being. Fortunately, the last bombing of the Imperial Palace gave the Special Missions Department an opportunity to contact the Imperial Family. Uesugi Muneyuki also has some connections, so he doesn't have to worry about the Foreign Minister retaliating. Only someone who is crazy would try to involve the Imperial Family in political struggles.

Do you want to die?
But always being passively attacked is not a solution.

We must try to take the initiative!
It is currently confirmed that at least one of the hidden worlds exists within either the Red Canary or the Sakikawa Restoration Army, while Uesugi Muneyuki has been on the defensive. Now that the new god of Kansai, Kishibe Nishita, has made a righteous break, Uesugi Muneyuki needs to consider how to retaliate.

"There's no need to worry about the royal family; they do have something protecting them."

“We need to set a trap to lure this guy in, otherwise if he keeps using his invisibility, it will be very difficult for us to catch him,” Uesugi Muneyuki said. “I’ll be the bait; he’ll definitely target me.”

"That's not difficult, but there's a problem." A faint smile appeared on Mai-senpai's beautiful face.

"What's the problem?" Uesugi Muneyuki was taken aback.

"The problem is, you," Mai-senpai poked Uesugi Muneyuki's cheek, "you'll definitely need to take action yourself, so here's the question: before I arrive to help, can you manage on your own?"

"Don't underestimate me!" Uesugi Muneyuki rolled his eyes and gently moved his finger down.

"Wait?!" Mai-senpai immediately realized something was terribly wrong: "You can't touch there!"

"You, no... that's... oh ho ho ho ho~ No, if the spiritual energy circuit short-circuits... it will... oh ho ho ho, I will... oh ho~"

Hearing strange noises coming from the changing room, nearby staff immediately rushed over: "Sir, do you need any assistance?"

There was no response from inside. When the staff knocked on the door, Uesugi Muneyuki opened it. He was the only one inside: "It's nothing. I just accidentally tapped the wrong place when I was getting my phone."

“Okay, please call us if you need anything.” The staff member immediately recognized Uesugi Muneyuki and said repeatedly, “Please don’t worry, we are not rushing you, Mr. Uesugi.”

........................

The afternoon sun bathed the Karuizawa golf course in a golden glow, the neatly manicured greens resembling green velvet carpets stretching all the way to the distant treeline. The air was filled with the fresh scent of grass and earth.

Uesugi Muneyuki changed into a well-fitting white polo shirt and khaki golf trousers, still wearing his frameless glasses, trying to maintain his gentle and refined scholar image.

He was patiently instructing Asuka on how to hold the stick, demonstrating proper technique and providing detailed explanations.

Minami, Mikoto, and Erena practiced on adjacent fairways, each with a different swing, but their eyes kept drifting toward Uesugi.

Aren't you coming?

Uesugi Muneyuki gestured for them to play, while he was actually teaching Murakawa-dono how to play golf.

"How boring. If I wanted to, I could hole-in-one every time. Humans really are such dull creatures," commented the village flower princess. Then, her eyes flickered slightly, and she said, "Teach me something more interesting next time, like how to do that spa treatment..."

"I'll definitely do it next time." Uesugi Muneyuki could only agree.

After practicing for a while, Mai-senpai's two little followers, Momoko and Eisa, came over carrying two large basins of watermelon: "Everyone, stop for a moment, let's eat watermelon."

However, this tranquility and harmony were soon shattered.

"Dudududu~"

"Zong Xue, you're finished!!!"

Dust billowed in the distance, startling Uesugi Muneyuki. He saw Mai-senpai driving a white golf cart alone, her sharp eyes fixed on Uesugi Muneyuki's back.

Dear junior!
Do you know how strange it feels to have your spiritual energy circuit short-circuited? It's really weird!

I've become... weird!

What have you learned from that Rain Woman?
Mai-senpai felt a surge of anger rising within her as she recalled how she had almost been caught in her embarrassing state in the locker room.

The possessiveness hidden deep in their hearts and the jealousy born from the struggle found an outlet at this moment.

She slammed on the accelerator, and the golf cart roared as it hurtled toward Uesugi Muneyuki like an arrow!

"Zong-yuki!" Shirakawa Mai's voice was laced with gritted teeth, completely abandoning her usual aloof demeanor: "Special training begins!"

Uesugi Muneyuki was focused on teaching when he suddenly heard an ominous engine sound and a familiar shout behind him. He turned around and was instantly terrified! There was Shirakawa Mai driving a golf cart, her eyes "fierce," heading straight for him at a speed that didn't seem like she was there to play golf! "Wait, wait! Mai! What are you doing?! Danger!" Uesugi Muneyuki's gentle and refined scholarly image instantly crumbled. He frantically dropped his golf club, abandoning all pretense of composure, and turned to run!
"Special training, huh! You wanted to fight back, didn't you?" Senior Mai said with a wicked smile, "The special training begins now! I'll be in charge of the chase, and you'll be in charge of the escape. If you lose, you have to unconditionally grant one request to all of us. No objection allowed!"

"I didn't agree!" Uesugi Muneyuki realized that something was seriously wrong.

"It's alright, everyone agreed, right?" Shirakawa Mai looked in Minami's direction.

Minami E, Rena, Mikoto, Asuka, Momoko Ozono, and Eisa Ikeda, who were working as caddies, were all watching the show when they saw this scene and everyone looked at Minami.

Miss fiancée, can you say something?
"Minami, help!" Uesugi Muneyuki screamed, knowing that once he was caught, he would be drained dry.

"Does everyone have one?" Miss Minami asked suddenly after a moment's thought.

“Everyone gets one!” Mai-senpai shouted.

“Then I agree!” Minami clapped her hands with a mischievous grin.

Uesugi Muneyuki: "???"

Thus, a truly comical scene unfolded on the lush green golf course:

Ahead, Uesugi Muneyuki could be seen fleeing in a disheveled state.

His white polo shirt was disheveled in the wind, his glasses were almost slipping down to the tip of his nose, and his usually meticulously combed hair was all over the place. As he ran, he let out a pathetic scream: "Stop! Stop right now! Mai! Let's talk this out! This isn't Mount Akina!"

Behind them, Mai-senpai was driving a golf cart, chasing closely behind.

Her beautiful face was now filled with murderous intent. She gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, adjusting the direction from time to time. She deliberately ran close to Uesugi Muneyuki's heels as she drove over the grass, splashing up fine grass clippings, which made him jump and scream. She didn't say anything, just pursed her lips and locked her eyes on her target, as if she were playing a real-life version of bumper cars, and there was only one goal—to make the man in front of her look ridiculous!
This hilarious scene naturally caught the attention of several ladies practicing nearby.

Miss Minami couldn't help but burst out laughing, bending over with laughter and almost dropping the melon in her hand: "Hahahaha! Zong Xuejun... Zong Xuejun's running was so funny!"

Mikoto Ishihara covered her mouth, laughing so hard her shoulders shook. Her eyes, which were always full of charm, were now filled with the pleasure of watching a show, but deep in that pleasure, there was also a trace of complicated envy: "Really... only Mai can make him show this kind of expression."

She knew that Uesugi Muneyuki admired Shirakawa Mai, who was a big star when she was at Tokiwa High School.

Moreover, among the people present, only Minami and Mai have an equal relationship with Uesugi Muneyuki.

Reina Ikeda was initially a little worried, but then she remembered that Muneyuki was her student, so she crossed her arms, her mixed-race face full of interest, and murmured, "Wow... this is much more exciting than judo, can we train this next time?"

Even Saito Asuka, who had just been receiving instruction, forgot her swing posture. Seeing Uesugi-san, who was usually calm and in control, being chased so badly by Mai-sama, she couldn't help but giggle, finding it both funny and satisfying.

They laughed as they watched the two of them chase and flee, putting on a farcical show around the fairways and bunkers. Laughter echoed across the empty course.

But beneath the laughter, a subtle emotion quietly began to grow in the hearts of Minami, Ishihara, Ikeda, and even Asuka. It was jealousy, and also envy.

They all longed for a closer and more special relationship with Uesugi Muneyuki, but it seemed that only Shirakawa Mai could treat him so "unrestrainedly" and have such a unique "bond" with him, full of tension and tacit understanding.

The "privilege" that only senior students can have, which transcends superficial etiquette and ambiguous probing, is something they cannot currently access.

Even Minami, his fiancée, knew that Uesugi was a stubborn person at heart, and she wouldn't dare to make some outrageous or hardcore jokes.

The forensic beauty thought to herself that Minami's position as the head of the Imperial Palace was still unstable.

What happens to you in the future is none of my business.

Mikoto thought to herself with a sly smile.

Asuka rolled her eyes, other thoughts arising in her mind.

Actually, Mai-sama and I are the same kind of people!

At this point, the outcome of the Lakshir ritual was already decided!

"I surrender, I surrender!!!" Uesugi Muneyuki surrendered.

Today is a victory for the senior student!
