Hikigaya Hachiman immediately played dumb, and seeing that the looks in the two men's eyes were really piercing, he quickly thought of another member of the laundry who was not present.

"By the way! How about letting Ye Shan go with you? I'm busy curing my cat's tongue now! I think that guy is quite free."

"Unfortunately."

Yukinoshita Yukino shrugged and showed her cell phone in front of him.

Hikigaya Hachiman took a closer look and immediately showed a strange expression.

"What is this? Uh... I have something to do and need to leave the laundry for a while, so don't worry about me - Ye Shanliu. Is it such a coincidence? Come to think of it, it seems that I haven't seen that guy since yesterday."

"Did you just notice that?"

The two girls looked at Hikigaya Hachiman in silence as he suddenly realized what had happened. They didn't think that the two of them could be so different that one of them could disappear for an entire night without being noticed.

Hikigaya Hachiman was also a little embarrassed. Yesterday's insights had indeed made him a little too excited, so much so that he did not notice the disappearance of Hayama Hayato.

There was no other way, Hikigaya Hachiman could only agree to Yuigahama Yui's idea and go out with her in the afternoon to look for the so-called mud thief.

But what neither of them would have expected was that the searching process was countless times simpler than they had imagined.

It can even be said that the mud-throwing thief almost came to the door on his own initiative. 】

Chapter 978: I can’t recognize you through the leather case.

[The process of searching for the mud-thrower was countless times simpler than Hikigaya Hachiman had imagined. The three-man team simply hung some clean clothes as bait in the area where the incidents occurred frequently, and the target fell into this trap that could probably only fool elementary school students without a second thought.

No, looking at the short black-haired girl in front of him who was being grabbed by Yuigahama Yui's arm and was still trying to escape in panic, even Hikigaya Hachiman did not expect that their target was actually a real elementary school student.

Faced with such a situation, even Yuigahama Yui, who was indignant at the beginning, was a little unsure.

If the other person was a mentally distorted adult, Yuigahama Yui could send him to the police station for reformation without any psychological burden, but the other person looked too young, which made the good-tempered Yuigahama Yui feel a little bit reluctant, and she could only look back at the two companions behind her.

In response to the pink-haired dumpling's pleading look, Yukinoshita Yukino sighed and took the initiative to step forward.

"Although I think it's better to send her to the police station, but considering the incompetence of the Japanese police, maybe as soon as we send her over, those tax thieves will probably just give her a verbal warning and then let her go."

"That's it!"

As if she saw a possibility of escape, the elementary school girl who was caught by them immediately brightened up and nodded frantically.

"I already know I was wrong, I won't do it again next time!"

Her little black eyeballs rolled around, and Tsurumi Rumi's gaze fell on the apron on Yuigahama Yui with "Yuigahama Laundry" printed on it, and she immediately came up with an idea.

"Besides, what I'm doing isn't a bad thing for you, right? From the perspective of your laundry shop, this is actually a good thing for you to have more customers!"

"Ugh?"

Such a familiar statement made the two girls stunned, and they each turned around to look at Hikigaya Hachiman.

The latter's look was a little surprised at first, but slowly changed from the initial disdain to appreciation, and he immediately revealed an expression of "this child is teachable".

"Oh my~ You are obviously a little devil, you see things very clearly~"

"Well, you're not bad, uncle."

“Uncle!?”

The emotion in the dead fish's eyes instantly switched seamlessly from "a young boy can be taught" to "a rotten tree cannot be carved", and he saw that Hikigaya Hachiman was about to get angry and start a verbal fight with a primary school student.

Yukinoshita Yukino had no choice but to elbow the childish boy who was easily angered by elementary school students, so that he would be quiet.

Then, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes when she looked at Tsurumi Rumi.

Originally, seeing as how she fell into such a cheap trap, Yukinoshita Yukino thought that Tsurumi Rumi was just a simple kid who liked to play pranks and didn't have any serious intentions.

However, judging from her actions of constantly trying to stir up their emotions to create opportunities for escape, this child's mental age is far less childish than she appears.

——Didn’t you get your clothes dirty just for fun?

Narrowing her eyes slightly, Yukinoshita Yukino became more and more certain that she could not send the child to the police station.

Given how cunning this child is, the police will never be able to correct her.

"I'm sorry, but we can't just let you go like this."

"Hey, why? Are you trying to kidnap me?"

Tsurumi Rumi showed a frightened expression, but Yukinoshita Yukino could see that there was no fear in the other party's eyes. She was still deliberately showing weakness in order to relax their vigilance.

"Because this is only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure. We have to find out why you did that before we can let you go."

Yukinoshita Yukino took the girl's hand from Yuigahama Yui and looked at her seriously.

The latter curled his lips.

"Auntie, you are so nosy!"

"No matter what you call me, whether it's auntie or old woman, I won't let you go."

Knowing that the other party was trying to provoke her, Yukinoshita Yukino remained calm and unmoved. Her skills in cultivating her Qi were so good that Hikigaya Hachiman, who had just been somewhat broken by the word "uncle", scratched his head in embarrassment.

But who would have thought that after hearing this, Tsurumi Rumi just smiled slightly.

"How could I possibly use such an impolite name, flat-chested sister?"

"Hey, that's even more rude! Even I've never dared to call you that! Gua ...

Hikigaya Hachiman's complaints were quickly replaced by painful groans. It was obvious that Yukinoshita Yukino was holding back when Tsurumi Rumi said those four words.

But when she heard the man behind her trying to commit suicide, the calm Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but take action. She turned around and punched the latter in the stomach.

As soon as the fight ended, Yukinoshita Yukino realized that something was wrong.

"Oops!"

As expected, even though Yukinoshita Yukino hurriedly turned back to catch Tsurumi Rumi, the latter, who had been waiting for a chance to escape, would not miss such a good opportunity. She rushed out of the blockade of three people and ran towards the surrounding woods.

Seeing this scene, Yukinoshita Yukino immediately glared at Hikigaya Hachiman who was still holding his stomach.

The latter also cast a subtle look at her.

——Can you still blame me for this? 】

Mr. Pan:6.

Miss Pink Fairy: Oh my! How can you say that to a girl? It seems that Mr. Hikigaya still has a lot to learn.

Pink Dumpling: Xiaoqi is like this, when he is handsome, he is really handsome, and when he is annoying, he is really annoying.

Mr. Pan: You...worked really well with that kid.

The Great Sensei’s dead fish eyes: Ahahaha.

Tsurumi Rumi: Am I a particularly bad kid in the video?

Super High School Level Detective: It feels a bit strange. This child's mind is a little too mature compared to other children of the same age. When surrounded by three adults, he was able to launch verbal attacks several times to disrupt their rhythm. Could this be the influence of the so-called "king"?

Dr. Lobster: If that’s the case, then that means the child’s behavior of throwing mud was also affected?

[While the audience was confused, in the video, Rumi Tsurumi had already temporarily shaken off the three people led by Hikigaya Hachiman who were chasing them through the complex terrain of the woods.

But before she could catch her breath, the same frightening sound of wheels rolling over her head that she had heard before rang out again.

The girl turned around in horror and saw a man dressed as a clown riding a unicycle not far away. He approached her very close without anyone noticing.

"you again!?"

"Hehe. Come back with me~"

As if excited by the frightened expression on Tsurumi Rumi's face, the clown grinned, and in the blink of an eye he turned into a scary monster with many mushrooms growing on his body.

Seeing this posture, Tsurumi Rumi was so scared that her legs went limp and she sat down on the ground.

Even though she wanted to escape, the extreme fear still affected her ability to move, making her limbs feel weak and completely out of control.

Just when Mushroom Offie was about to catch her, a red light suddenly flashed not far away, and Hikigaya Hachiman, who was transformed into Faiz, jumped out and wrestled with Mushroom Offie.

Seizing the opportunity, Yuigahama Yui and Yukinoshita Yukino also rushed over from not far away, grabbed Tsurumi Rumi and left.

"Roar!"

Seeing that the cooked duck had flown away, Mushroom Offie, who had been tracking Tsurumi Rumi for some time, immediately roared and wanted to chase after her.

However, Hikigaya Hachiman would not let him do that and punched him in the back, causing him to stagger.

"Humph, I won't let you run away..."

"Uh-huh!!!"

Before he finished speaking, the situation at the scene took another turn, and a horse neigh was heard coming from another direction.

As Hikigaya Hachiman looked back with a changed expression, Maoffi, who had fought with him before, suddenly rushed out and repelled him with a sword before he had time to react.

"You are!"

Hikigaya Hachiman rolled on the ground to release the force, maintaining a half-squatting position and looking solemnly at the powerful enemy in front of him.

Ma Aofei raised the Horse Magic Sword in his hand, and his tone was filled with murderous intent.

"I won't let you do whatever you want anymore, Faiz!"]

979

Chapter 979: Picking up each other’s children.

[The Horse Demon Sword slashed Faiz's armor with lightning speed, creating dazzling sparks. Hikigaya Hachiman was shocked and his attack on Mushroom Ophi was abruptly interrupted. He was caught off guard and rolled to the ground.

While rolling, the young man was extremely shocked. He never expected that he would meet Ophiino again under such circumstances, whom he had not seen for a long time.

Hikigaya Hachiman didn't expect it, and neither did Chen Shi, who was standing opposite him.

The reason why he appeared here and attacked the young man was purely a coincidence.

Yesterday, Chen Shi finally recovered from the self-blame for Naganohara Xiaogong's fall from grace to Orphieno, but he searched the entire university, thinking that he could at least stop the other party from committing further evil deeds with his own hands. However, he found that no matter how he searched, the figure of the armadillo Orphie had disappeared without his knowledge, leaving only traces of a violent fight in the parking lot.

——Is it an official opposing force of mankind, or is there anyone else fighting against Orphino besides himself?

Chen Shi wanted to investigate the situation at the scene carefully due to his strong curiosity and complicated feelings towards Naganohara Yoshinomiya. However, before he could take any action, the police who arrived at the scene immediately cordoned off the scene, forcing him to give up temporarily and go home.

But once worries arise, how can they be easily let go?
