Serabelle was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses. She took a blink of an eye to sort out her thoughts and walked quickly forward.

"Where? No way?"

"Look."

Masumi Sera borrowed the cell phone from Xiaolan, stretched out her arm and stuffed the news screen in front of the boy. At the same time, she put the index finger of her other hand around the side of the phone and pointed at the familiar half of the face in the lower left corner of the photo on the screen.

Uh--

Serabelle recognized the face at a glance. Although the angle was a bit tricky, she could still clearly see the outline of the lips and nose, as well as the calm eyes that looked like a face of determination.

Well, that was indeed him.

But don’t these TV station reporters understand what it means to highlight the key points? Isn’t this a compulsory course in photography to not include irrelevant content when taking important photos?

Forget it. I’m not a secretive person anyway.

It shouldn't be a big problem.

……

At the same time, in Kyoto, fifty kilometers away from Osaka.

Arashiyama in Kyoto has been the residence of many Japanese aristocrats since the Heian period. It is famous for its maple leaves and cherry blossoms. In autumn, the mountains are covered with red maples for ten miles. It is a must-visit place for tourists to Kyoto.

And in this mountain full of red maples that looks like a tourist attraction, a large, classic Japanese-style house with a long history sits quietly.

There are pavilions with white walls and green tiles, and bamboo shadows swaying and koi carp playing.

It is a painting style that is completely in the style of traditional Japanese aristocracy.

Walking through the long corridor of the old house, we arrived at a Japanese-style room in the southeast corner, where a beautiful young girl with short brown curly hair was sitting on the tatami. She was wearing a kimono with red maple leaves painted on it, showing her ladylike demeanor. The belt around her waist outlined her slender waist and made her already majestic bust look even more magnificent.

In this situation, no one would doubt that this was a scene from a Japanese Warring States drama about the daughter of a daimyo.

Of course, the premise is to ignore the butler in a suit who just walked in beside the girl, and the tablet computer that the butler is handing over to her.

"Miss, I've got the tablet for you."

"Thank you, Iori."

The girl thanked the butler in a Kyoto-flavored accent, then took the tablet with her left hand and tapped the browser on the screen with her right index finger.

"Hmm~ It's the Suzuki family again. Let me see what they came up with this time?"

Exactly the same news, exact same layout and photos.

Although there are a few typos and individual errors in word choice between the lines, it can be seen that Director Mizukawa completed the compilation of photos and articles in the hotel overnight and submitted them to Nichiuri TV, so there are many obvious signs of rush work, but fortunately it does not affect the reading much.

"So that's it. It's related to the red Siamese cat."

After a quick glance, the girl quickly understood the general content of the news.

The butler named Iori coughed lightly and added, "It is said that the Suzuki family originally planned to use this airship to fight against Kaito Kidd, but it seems that the opposite happened. For some reason, Kaito Kidd did not show up to fight. Instead, he was targeted by the red Siamese cat that had previously robbed the Nishitama Biological Research Institute. As for how the situation was finally resolved, the news did not mention it, but I guess the Suzuki family should have their own security forces."

"Security force...huh?"

The girl tapped the tablet screen with her green fingertips, raised the corners of her lips and shook her head slightly.

Butler Iori was slightly stunned but didn't say much.

As if she could see the confusion in Iori's heart, the girl explained generously.

"See this photo of Consultant Suzuki and Director Hattori shaking hands? In the background, the east side of the hall is full of employees wearing Suzuki Group uniforms, while the west side is mostly in casual clothes. But looking at the entire east side, there are no bodyguards."

Iori seemed to understand something: "That is to say..."

"That means someone else must have helped the Suzuki Group resolve this crisis."

The girl smiled slightly and released her left hand from the screen.

"As for who it is, we can find out by simply checking the people who have had close contact with the Suzuki Group recently."

"understood."

The butler bowed slightly upon hearing this, then stood up and left.

The Japanese-style room returned to silence. The girl paused for a moment, breathed a sigh of relief, put down the tablet in her hand, and was about to stretch her body when she accidentally caught a glimpse of a familiar face in the lower left corner of the photo on the tablet screen that had been previously blocked by her left thumb.

"Hey, this person seems to be..."

Chapter 228 Teacher Judy

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed since returning from Osaka. Since the summer vacation ended more than a week ago, Sera Masumi, Sonoko and Ran soon returned to their high school life in Kubiki.

Of course, saying it's bitter is just an exaggeration.

At least if Japanese high school students do not plan to apply for those famous universities, they usually have relatively ample time to develop their other interests after deciding on the school's curriculum.

For example, you can read a book or play football. If you are good at it, you can even form a band and become an idol.

But if you want to get into a prestigious university, it will be more tragic. Not only will you have no time to join various interest clubs in school, but you will also have to go to private schools with expensive tuition fees after school.

Fortunately, Masumi Sera is not one of the best students in the school. Although her grades in school are quite good, her attitude towards studying is to just pass the exam.

He never looks up the book after finishing his homework, and he doesn't know what review is when the exam is approaching.

Anyway, Akai Mary is quite open-minded and won't discipline her children too much as long as their grades are good.

So when Serabelle returned to her hotel suite Thursday evening, Mary Akai was busy in the kitchen.

In the living room, the girl with tiger teeth, who had already finished her homework, was still sitting on the sofa with an English book in her hands, staring at it seriously, and her lips were moving as if she was muttering something.

Serabelle was definitely shocked.

Isn’t this Wansui...ah no, isn’t this a tiger tooth?

Shocked, he decided to ask a tentative question, carefully choosing his words.

"Majun, why are you so... uh, hardworking today?"

"Hmm~"

The response came from the weak voice of the girl with tiger teeth.

The next second, Sera Masumi put down the textbook in her hand, and a little face with aggrieved look and tears in the corners of her eyes appeared from behind the cover.

"Bernini (short for Ni-chan)~ I have something scary to tell you. Our school has changed a foreign English teacher these days. I thought my English subject was the least of my problems, but..."

"but?"

Serabelle typed a question mark.

"But this English teacher is an American!"

As if a switch was turned on, Sera Masumi threw the textbook in his hand aside and completely started talking.

"You know, brother, there are some differences in pronunciation between British and American English. And this English teacher likes to ask me questions. As soon as I speak British English, she starts telling me how to pronounce the same word in American English. It's not that annoying, but it's super~troublesome."

Serabelle suggested: "Then you can just use the cockney accent to talk to her..."

"How could I possibly do something like that!"

The girl with tiger teeth rejected this completely unreliable proposal without a second's hesitation.

The crazy progress bar increases by ten percent.

However, Sera Masumi quickly calmed down.

"Well, the foreign teacher is quite responsible. He teaches very seriously every day, but he makes people a little sleepy. And he has a great figure."

After saying this, she drew an illusory and perfect arc on her chest.

Serabelle imagined the size for a moment and shook her head in her mind.

Not at all as good as Sister Mary before she shrunk.

"Oh, by the way, one more thing."

After talking about the new English teacher in school, Sera Masumi suddenly seemed to remember that there was something else she hadn't said.

"Because the day after tomorrow is the weekend, Ran and Sonoko asked me to go to a video game store in Beika Town after school tomorrow. Do you want to come with us?"

"Ah? I can't do that?"

Serabell subconsciously wanted to refuse.

It’s not that he has Shuang Ge syndrome and is allergic to environments where there are many women, but he really is not very interested in places like video game stores.

However, at the same time, Akai Mary, who had just finished her work in the kitchen, came out with dishes in her hands. She heard the conversation between the two and added something indifferent.

"It's okay to go there occasionally. You're not particularly busy at work right now, Bell."

……Eh?

Serabelle almost thought she had heard it wrong. She turned her head and looked at the blonde British girl carrying a plate behind her for two seconds, then turned back to Sera Masumi who was sitting on the sofa.

Emmmm——

"All right?"

"Great!"

Although there was a clear hint of uncertainty in Serabelle's last tone, Sera Masumi undoubtedly took it as a positive answer. She jumped three feet high in excitement and jumped straight up from the sofa. She took the former's arm and hugged it tightly to her flat chest.

Feels solid.

Mary Akai, who also saw the scene, frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. She just turned around, brought dinner to the table and said, "Go wash your hands quickly."

……

On Friday, Serabelle arrived at the gate of Teitan High School at 4:30 in the afternoon, just as the students from the Homecoming Department were getting out of school.

However, as mentioned earlier, because most Japanese high school students will participate in extracurricular activities after class, the number of students leaving the school and going home at this time is not that large, so it is not crowded at a glance.

In fact, as the leader of the school's karate club, Xiaolan should also have after-school club activities. However, because she had an appointment to go to the video game store in Beikacho today, she asked for leave from the club and left school early.

So, among the large number of students returning home in groups of three or four at the gate of Teitan High School, Serabelle caught a glimpse of a very distinctive group.

It consists of a pointed horn as conspicuous as the Tokyo Tower, a pair of cute little canine teeth, and a signature headband.

"Ah, it's Bernie-chan. He's been waiting for us."

Masahiro Sera had sharp eyes and immediately spotted Serabelle waiting against the guard booth at the school gate. She waved her hand excitedly, grabbed her two friends and ran over quickly.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm a little late because I have to clean the classroom today."

"It's okay, I just got here not long ago."

Serabelle shook her head and pulled out a plastic bag from behind her that was still covered in condensation despite the hot weather.

"Here, this is the milk tea I brought for you."

"Oh~ It's my favorite coconut flavor."

With just one glance, Masumi Sera accurately locked onto her favorite flavor. She casually reached out to take the straw, took a big sip, and then began to chew the coconut with a crunching sound.

Sonoko and Xiaolan also took their shares after expressing their gratitude.

"Hey, where's your share, bro?"

Masumi Sera, who was biting a straw in her mouth, suddenly noticed that Serabelle had nothing in her hand, and asked curiously.

"I drank it on the way here."

Serabelle threw the empty plastic bag into the public trash can nearby and said with a tilted face.

"Okay, it's almost time to go."

"Wait a minute, I remember the location of the video game store is..."

Ten minutes later, Serabelle and the others arrived at the video game store in Beika Town. To be honest, it was not very close to Teitan High School. On the contrary, it was quite a distance away.

I don’t know if this is to avoid being criticized by the public.

The decoration of the store is quite formal. Apart from the game consoles inside, it is no different from an ordinary coffee shop.

Floor-to-ceiling windows allow you to see the entire interior at a glance, as well as a surveillance area with all-round coverage.

This is a pretty good video game store for housewives. You can see quite a few people inside, from young people to old people.

Just when Serabelle was about to say that it was almost time to go in, Yuanzi, who had been looking inside through the glass window, let out a soft "hmm", raised his hand and pointed inside with a slightly surprised expression.

"Look, isn't that... Teacher Judy?"

Teacher Judy?
