The reason for this change is that he usually has close relationships with the extremely popular and aloof witch Ai Haibara, the captain of the karate club Ran Mouri, and the second daughter of the Suzuki Group, Sonoko Suzuki.

The fact that Wen Shui easily resolved the issue with Matsumoto Takashi and his group was also a significant plus.

Even Wen Shui himself didn't expect that after he injured the Majima yakuza leader that Matsumoto Takashi had brought in, Matsumoto Takashi and his two subordinates would drop out of school.

Whether out of fear of his subsequent retaliation or worry about being harassed by the Majima Group's yakuza, they moved out overnight.

However, from the perspective of an uninformed outsider, it's easy to imagine that the warm water made Matsumoto Takashi and his friends afraid to even come to school.

The student body in this country is very good at "reading the room," so Wenshui's status in Teitan has unknowingly risen to the top of the pyramid.

But Wen Shui himself had little interest in this kind of "honor".

He's already transmigrated; if he can't even handle a few little devils, that would be too embarrassing, wouldn't it?

.

Entering the classroom of Class 2B, since it was still early, there were less than half of the students in the classroom, chatting in small groups.

Wen Shui looked around and found that Ai Haibara's seat was empty, and Ran had not arrived yet either.

Sonoko Suzuki arrived quite early today, but she wasn't in her seat. Instead, she was by the window chatting with a few girls about what happened during their weekend vacation in Hawaii.

Sonoko Suzuki, dressed in a school uniform, sat at a desk by the window, wearing black calf socks that reached about 5 centimeters below her knees, perfectly showcasing her beautifully shaped legs.

What's truly eye-catching is...

Sonoko Suzuki has changed her headband today to a cute seashell-shaped hair clip.

The morning sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Sonoko Suzuki. Her shell-shaped hair clip reflected a pearly sheen, subconsciously reminding one of the animated character, The Little Mermaid.

As soon as Wen Shui entered the classroom, Suzuki Sonoko caught sight of him out of the corner of her eye.

But she pretended not to see the lukewarm water and continued chatting with her classmates about the fun she had on vacation in Hawaii.

However, it was obvious that she was fiddling with the hair clips on her head more frequently than before.

Wen Shui was preoccupied with Ai Haibara and the Black Organization, and didn't notice Sonoko Suzuki's subtle actions. He went straight to his seat and put his bag down.

Then, Wen Shui took an apple out of her bag and placed it on Ai Haibara's desk. Whether it worked or not, at least she wanted to show that she wanted to apologize.

Ai Haibara isn't an unreasonable person. Last time, when Usagi was bullied so badly by Nukusui, she only accidentally stepped on him.

If she really can't stand it...

Then, let's think of another way to appease her. In any case, we absolutely cannot let the previous "trap incident" happen again, Wen Shui made up her mind.

Because it was still early before class started, many people were having breakfast in the classroom.

Wen Shui also took out the meat buns she bought at the convenience store, but just then...

A pair of slender arms came into his view, their smooth, flawless wheat-colored skin looking very healthy, though it seemed a little darker than before he went to Hawaii.

.

Although Sonoko Suzuki was chatting with the people around her, she kept an eye on Nuku's every move out of the corner of her eye.

When Wen Shui placed the apple on Haibara Ai's table, Suzuki Sonoko didn't think much of it, because Wen Shui would occasionally bring snacks to share with everyone.

She was just a little curious as to why Wen Shui had come so early today, while continuing to fiddle with the hair clip in her hair.

When Wen Shui took out the meat bun to eat breakfast...

Sonoko Suzuki glanced at her empty desk.

After confirming that the bastard had no intention of taking out another apple, Miss Suzuki became restless.

They all have brown hair... ah, no, they're all members of the Lily of the Valley Detective Club. She's even a key member of the club. Why don't she and Ran get to eat apples?

So Sonoko Suzuki abandoned her female classmate and stormed over to Nukumizu.

"What's wrong, Miss?" Wen Shui looked up at Suzuki Sonoko.

Sonoko Suzuki brushed her hair back with her hand, the seashell hair clip in her short brown hair sparkling: "Why are you here so early?"

"I can't sleep," Wen Shui said.

"Oh." Sonoko Suzuki nodded, then casually glanced at the apple on Ai Haibara's desk. "Huh, someone's giving Ai something again?"

With her cold personality and stunning figure, Ai Haibara quickly gained many admirers after arriving at Teitan.

It was common for her shoe cabinet to be filled with love letters, and people often sent her various small gifts when she wasn't around, but Ai Haibara threw them all away.

When faced with persistent gift-giving individuals, Ai Haibara will proactively approach them and use the intimidating aura of a Black Organization member to dissuade them from their pursuit.

Gradually, fewer and fewer people sent her things.

Since Ai Haibara's desk was right next to the warm water, Sonoko Suzuki reached out and picked up the apple, bringing it close to her face and gently smelling it: "Strange, it seems to be just an ordinary apple, without any hidden confession mechanism or anything like that inside."

Wen Shui: "Of course not, I brought those apples from home."

"Huh, you're going to confess to Haibara-san?" Sonoko Suzuki exclaimed in surprise.

"How could that be?!" Wen Shui was startled and subconsciously glanced at the door. "I just happened to see an apple sitting there all alone in the refrigerator, and for some reason it looked a lot like Haibara, so I brought it over for her."

Warm water concealed the truth.

He couldn't very well tell Sonoko what happened last night, could he? He felt like he'd be killed.

Moreover, Miss Suzuki also played a role in fueling the fire yesterday.

Sonoko Suzuki seemed relieved. She put the apple back in its place and then sat lightly on the warm water's desk: "Your imagination is really strong. You can even associate an apple with Ai. So what kind of food do you think I am more like?"

Wen Shui couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

I just said it offhand; how would I know what kind of food you resemble?

However, judging from Sonoko Suzuki's demeanor, it seemed she wasn't just asking casually, but genuinely wanted an answer. Nuku hadn't expected that trying to cover up the truth would backfire and create a problem for herself.

Wen Shui thought for a moment, and his gaze fell on the meat bun in his hand. His eyes lit up: "Hmm... I think it looks a lot like this meat bun."

Sonoko Suzuki's expression remained unchanged, but she felt somewhat disappointed inside.

Is this how I am perceived by Wen Shui Jun?

While both apples and meat buns are delicious foods, the bright red color of apples always subconsciously evokes images of Christmas, Snow White's poisoned apple, and the golden apple from Greek mythology...

These are cultural symbols and things that are associated with romance.

Meat buns are also delicious.

But it only reminds Sonoko Suzuki of that brat who loved eating eel rice, Genta Kojima.

"Is...I see. Why do you say that?" Sonoko Suzuki's tone betrayed her deep disappointment.

Wen Shui lifted the bun and said with a smile, "Because a meat bun looks like just a dough ball from the outside, you can only taste how delicious the filling is after you bite into it, right?"

Wen Shui paused for a moment, then continued, "Yuanzi gave me a similar feeling. Before we got to know each other, I felt that you were a bit difficult to get along with, but after getting to know you, I found that you are actually a kind-hearted person."

I've tried my best to say nice things; I think that should be enough to get by.

Wen Shui looked at Suzuki Sonoko with some trepidation.

Sonoko Suzuki felt her cheeks burning hot, and her little hands, which were resting on the desk, unconsciously clenched into fists. Her heart was beating even faster than when she had just finished a tennis match.

Sonoko Suzuki suddenly had a strong urge to jump into the sea and cool her body down with the cold water, just like she had done yesterday.

But instead of the sea, she was surrounded by many classmates. This forced her to feign composure.

"I guess you barely passed." Sonoko Suzuki jumped off her desk, her face flushed.

Wen Shui breathed a sigh of relief and then planned to eat the steamed bun in her hand before the teacher arrived.

However, just as he was about to take a bite, Sonoko Suzuki exclaimed and snatched the meat bun away: "You...you're going to eat me?"

Wen Shui looked speechless: "Miss, I was just using an example. I bought this bun for 120 at the convenience store."

"That won't do either, this bun already smells like me." Sonoko Suzuki preemptively took a bite of the meat bun. Surprisingly, it tasted pretty good.

Wen Shui couldn't help but facepalm: "Fine, then what about the snacks you brought back from Hawaii?"

"Oh, there were too many, so I just put them in the Literature Club's activity room." Sonoko Suzuki chewed on the meat bun, savoring the delicious taste of the meat filling and dough fully mixed together, her big, watery eyes involuntarily narrowing into crescent shapes.

Then she suddenly noticed that Wen Shui's expression was a little strange.

Oh dear! I forgot that this was a breakfast of warm water.

Sonoko Suzuki shoved the bun back into Wenshui's hand, blushing as she said, "It's not good, here you go."

Looking at the crescent-shaped notch on the meat bun, Wen Shui wondered if the glistening liquid clinging to the dough was her lip gloss rather than soup.

"But you already bit it," Wen Shui said with a hint of disgust.

“Shouldn’t we usually say ‘Thank you for your generosity, Miss’ in this situation?” Sonoko Suzuki crossed her arms.

Wen Shui recalled the two boys she had just encountered at the school gate, the boys who wanted to be trampled underfoot by Ai Haibara: "I don't have that kind of special fetish, please don't reward me in this way."

Sonoko Suzuki: "Okay, okay, don't take it so seriously. Don't we exchange food with each other when we eat lunch in the cafeteria?"

Wen Shui still looked hesitant.

Sonoko Suzuki suddenly revealed a mischievous smile: "Huh, does that mean that the thing I bit will make Nukumi think of an indirect kiss?"

Wen Shui's expression changed slightly: "How could that be? I've always considered you a brother."

After saying that, he took a big bite of the meat bun.

Compared to the steamed buns from that other shop, these have a slightly sweeter peach aroma.

This feeling became even more pronounced when he saw the glistening oil stains on Sonoko Suzuki's lips.

"Oh, by the way, I'm going to a business dinner in a few days," Sonoko Suzuki suddenly changed the subject. "Why don't you come with me?"

Wen Shui was secretly pleased, but still asked doubtfully, "Wouldn't it be inappropriate for me to go to that kind of occasion?"

“My parents both had social engagements that day, and my older sister was going to the countryside with her classmates, so they had to send me along to entertain them,” Sonoko Suzuki explained.

Wen Shui thought that this might be another opportunity to encounter a case from the original story.

However, the dead and murderers at these gatherings usually don't have strong fighting abilities, so they might not be able to fall into the warm water. What they need most right now is a skill that can increase their combat power.

But then Wen Shui thought again and realized that he could bring Xiao Lan along, which would give him a chance to learn karate skills.

Sonoko Suzuki misunderstood Wen Shui's thoughtful expression, thinking he didn't want to go.

Sonoko leaned closer and whispered enticingly, "You'll get to eat a delicious meal, and I heard they've invited a big foreign celebrity. You can even take a picture with her."

"superstar?"
