Alchemists do not need self-cultivation

“Locke, please continue,” Isaac prompted.

“Okay, just cooperate with the inspection. As long as you don’t bring anything unrelated to your studies, there won’t be any problems,” Locke said.

"Well, and then?"

“Japanese schools may be different from those in other countries. You have to change your shoes when you go in. There are special shoes for wearing inside the school.”

Locke then pointed to a space filled with shoe cabinets.

"A shoe cabinet? What if they find your shoe cabinet has been moved?"

"This one……"

"Needless to say? Just detonate the bomb to avoid being set in a trap. Make sure you have enough TNT," Balalaika said without hesitation. "Back in the day, my comrade accidentally opened a mailbox containing a bomb..."

"Enough! Japan isn't that dangerous!" Locke exclaimed in despair.

I always feel like my hometown is going to be turned into a battlefield by this group of people.

“That’s right, boss,” Revy laughed from the side. “Not every place is a war zone.”

“Yes,” Locke continued, “Some girls do leave love letters in the shoe cabinet of the boy they like, maybe Mr. Isaac…”

Revy: "Let's just use explosives."

Locke: "..."

Isaac: "Anything else to add?"

"That's it... Basically, the rest is very different from schools in the United States."

“I understand.” Isaac closed his notebook. “Thank you for your explanation. I have a basic understanding now.”

He is now going back to the accommodation George prepared for him to conduct a more in-depth investigation of the documents he obtained earlier.

"Um... Mr. Isaac, could you wait a moment?"

"Ok?"

Locke gripped Isaac's shoulders nervously, his face contorted with an indescribable pain.

"If possible, don't turn this place into a battlefield."

“I’ll try my best.” Isaac patted him on the shoulder to reassure him. “The number of casualties will definitely not cause chaos in the country.”

"You're making me even more worried!"

Chapter 626: Fujisawa Ayana

After leaving the rented house, Isaac and Levy drove to find the place marked on the map.

Soon, they found the villa on the outskirts of the city.

The villa stands out starkly in this neighborhood, but that was part of Isaac's plan. The house of their target, Fujisawa Ayana, is right across the street.

"Wow, this house is huge!" Reverie exclaimed, looking at the somewhat extravagant villa.

"They forced the residents who originally lived here to move out three days in advance at three times the price. This was also a tactic used to get closer to the target." Isaac picked up the key, opened the iron gate outside, and went inside.

As soon as he opened the door, Roberta, dressed in a maid outfit, was standing inside, smiling at Isaac.

"You're back, young master."

Isaac: "..."

Levi: "Wow, I didn't expect this woman to be here too."

Robert continued with a smile, "Young master, you must be tired from your trip to Japan. Would you like to take a bath first? I've already heated up the water."

"...Why are you here?"

“I was worried that the young master wouldn’t be able to take care of himself alone in Japan, so I came over,” Robert said with a smile. “I applied to the master, and he approved it immediately.”

“If you don’t stay home, I’m afraid Hansel and Greta will tear the house down.”

"Young master, please rest assured, such a thing will absolutely not happen. Those two children are very well-behaved now."

"I still don't feel entirely at ease."

Isaac casually tossed his coat aside in the living room and asked, "Where is my room?"

"The first room on the second floor."

"Oh."

He nodded and turned to walk upstairs.

"Hey, where's my room?" Levi pointed to herself.

Robertt still had that same smile: "Hmm? I don't recall needing to arrange a room for you."

"What? Are you kidding me? Such a big villa doesn't even have these few rooms?"

No.

"Then where will I stay?"

"Actually, the bathtub in the bathroom here is very big; you can make do with staying there for one night."

"Tsk."

Levi realized that the maid had come to cause her trouble.

"Miss Levi, have you made up your mind? If you're not willing, I can help you book a hotel..."

"I'll go share a room with Isaac; I think he'll be happy to."

"Your room is the third room on the second floor. You are not allowed to go to the young master's room."

……

Isaac walked into his room, looked around, and it seemed to be a very normal room.

It has everything you'd expect: a bed, a desk, and a wardrobe.

Then he walked to the bedside table, took out a remote control, and pressed a button.

hum~

With a soft click and a slight vibration, the wardrobe was slowly opened.

It was a display shelf, densely packed with all kinds of firearms and ammunition, even bulletproof vests and grenades, as well as various types of military knives.

He picked up one of the pistols, skillfully loaded it, chambered a round, and aimed.

He was aiming directly across the window, at the house of Ayana Fujisawa.

"It's necessary to go over and say hello first."

Ding dong ding dong!

It was an ordinary apartment building with the name "Fujisawa" on the doorplate. Isaac was outside, holding a gift box and ringing the doorbell.

This was something Locke had told him before: after moving to a new neighborhood, one should give gifts to the neighbors as a gesture of greeting; it seems there's an unwritten rule like this in Japan.

"coming."

Soon, a middle-aged woman with long, flowing hair stood in front of Isaac.

Hello, may I ask who you are?

"Hello Ms. Fujisawa, I am Rentaro Satomi, who just moved here. This is just a small gift for you."

As he spoke, Isaac handed over the gift he had prepared.

Mrs. Fujisawa also remembered that several families across the street from her house had suddenly moved away, and then the house had been renovated.

Looking at the huge villa in front of me, I thought to myself that this must be the child of some rich family.

"Child, you're too kind. Would you like to come in and have a seat?"

"Then I shall respectfully accept your offer."

After a few simple pleasantries, Isaac successfully entered Fujisawa's home.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Isaac looked around. Although the house was a bit small, he could still feel a sense of warmth.

"Please use it."

Mrs. Fujisawa handed the tea to Isaac.

"Oh, thank you."

"Child, didn't your parents come with you?" Mrs. Fujisawa asked in confusion.

Because greeting neighbors is usually something the adults do at home.

“Well, my father works overseas and rarely comes back to the country. Right now, it’s just me and the maid in the house,” Isaac said with a smile. “I’ll probably be transferring to the nearby Shirasaki Junior High School in a couple of days.”

"Shirasaki Junior High School? What a coincidence, my daughter studies there too."

"Hahaha, what a coincidence!" Isaac laughed as well.

He found himself increasingly resembling an underground worker.

He stood up and called upstairs, "Ayana, come down for a moment."

"Wait a moment."

Not long after, Fujisawa Ayase, wearing a school uniform, came down from the second floor.

This was also the first time Isaac had met his target.

Ayana Fujisawa is a second-year student in class 3 at Shirasaki High School. She has a very endearing face, but how should I put it...

Isaac felt that the person in front of him was a bit more gloomy than the person in the photo.

"Ayana, this is Satomi, who just moved next door. She'll be a student at Shirasaki Junior High School from now on, and she'll be your schoolmate too."

"Um... hello."

"Hello, Fujisawa-kun, my name is Rentaro Satomi." Isaac bowed slightly.

Although he originally intended to shake hands, considering that handshakes are not a common greeting in Japan, he opted for a bow instead.

"I am Ayana Fujisawa."

The two gave a brief self-introduction.
