"Oh~" the girl with tiger teeth drew out the tone.
She didn't really care where she went to school, she was happy as long as she could be with her mother and Bell.
"As for accommodation, considering that we may not settle in Tokyo for a long time, and we also need to change our residence frequently to ensure privacy, my plan is -" Akai Mary raised her eyes, "stay in a hotel."
"Then the cost aspect becomes a big issue," Serabelle said.
After all, Akai Mary has made up her mind to hide the fact that she has become smaller from MI6. She will probably be included in the list of missing investigators soon, and her salary will be stopped at that time.
Without a stable source of funds, expenses in all aspects will become obstacles to life, not to mention that staying in a hotel in Tokyo, Japan is not cheap.
"Don't worry, I have already made plans for funding sources, so there won't be any problem." Akai Mary was confident.
"Joseph from London is by my side?" Serabel was surprised.
The female investigator ignored the guy's antics and continued, "According to our investigation, the number of homicides in Japan has increased dramatically in recent years due to the sharp increase in social pressure. In addition, due to the incompetence of the Japanese police and the scarcity of forensic doctors, many murder cases are hastily resolved as accidental deaths. In such an environment, the status of private detectives has risen. If everything goes well, we can not only have sufficient funding sources, but also establish a relationship with the Japanese police, which will be of great help to our plan."
"But I don't know how to reason." Serabelle spread her hands.
It would be better to expect a happy Xiao Qin to transform into a puzzle-solving superman and pass the level in one life than to let a person who only knows how to extract key words such as "where to go, who to kill, how many to kill, and what to bring back" from the task files to change jobs to do such a meticulous job as detective reasoning.
"It doesn't matter. Reasoning is not difficult. Eliminate all impossible options. No matter how incredible the answer is, it is the truth."
Akai Mary said calmly, putting away the tablet in her hand.
"I've taught you all the basics. Do you remember what the first rule is when entering a crime scene?"
"Uh...put on your gloves and shoe covers?"
"As long as you understand this, you will be better than 99% of Japanese private detectives."
Sister Mary, are you serious?
Serabelle thought.
Chapter 5 Unicorns Unique to Beika Town (Happy)
Now that the plan has been made, all that remains is execution.
Since this was not a cross-border move, there were not that many things to take away, and basically everything was packed up that evening.
Time passed quickly and it was the next day. Early in the morning, Serabelle took Akai Mary's handwritten letter and went to Westminster School with Sera Masumi to complete the withdrawal procedures.
Although it was a bit of a pity, considering that the incident happened suddenly and they were forced to do it, the school completed the entire process promptly.
By 10:30 in the morning, the three of them had boarded a direct flight to Tokyo, Japan at Luton Airport, six miles from central London.
This is a flight journey across almost half the world. It takes about thirteen hours to fly directly from the UK to Japan.
If nothing goes wrong, it will be past eleven o'clock in the evening in the UK when they land.
But considering the time difference, Japan is eight hours ahead of the UK, so when Serabelle took off her blindfold and woke up before landing, bright light golden sunlight shone through the plane cabin glass.
It is seven o'clock in the morning in Tokyo.
Looking down, on the bustling land of Tokyo, the towering Tokyo Tower in the distance stands in the morning light rising in the east. Private cars and buses are intertwined on the city roads, and trams loaded with passengers are roaring on the rails.
It was a rare Sunday, but it passed so quickly.
It's very mysterious.
The flight was rarely delayed. Half an hour later, as the iron bird that had traveled across half the globe finally folded its wings and landed at the Haneda airport, a large group of tourists from the UK got off the plane.
"Aha……"
The moment Sera Masumi got off the plane, he yawned loudly.
"What's wrong? Are you still asleep?"
Serabelle, who had slept for ten hours on the plane, asked curiously.
Then he was glanced at by the tiger-toothed girl with sleepy eyes.
"It's not that I didn't wake up, it's that I didn't sleep at all and couldn't sleep."
"Oh, so you just sat there straight for the past ten hours?"
"Almost. I tried listening to the hypnotic sound massage for a while, but I still didn't feel sleepy, so I gave up. It wasn't until the plane was about to land that I felt a little sleepy."
As a high school girl with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physique, aesthetics and labor, Masumi Sera also has a good habit of going to bed early and getting up early. When she was studying in the UK, she would never sleep later than 10 o'clock every night.
For example, it is almost midnight in the UK and people haven't gone to bed yet. For her, this is like practicing Taoism crazily.
"Forget it, it's not a big deal. At worst, I can just have a cup of coffee to refresh myself after I finish my work."
"Then I'll search for some good cafes in Tokyo..."
However, before Serabelle could pull out her phone to search for the ranking of Tokyo coffee shops, the quiet voice of a female investigator suddenly came from the rotating luggage tracks not far away.
"That's about it. What are you two still doing there? We still have a lot to do today."
When I looked up, I saw that Akai Mary had already taken the suitcases off the tracks and placed them behind her, one on each side.
Both boxes were standing upright, and the pull rods used for towing were fully extended, with the top almost level with her head at her current height.
There is a sense of "I have given too much for this family".
The two who were still standing there discussing which cafe to go to later looked at each other, and driven by the desire to survive, they both restrained the curve that was about to rise at the corners of their mouths, and quickly stepped forward and each pulled a suitcase.
"Coming, coming~"
……
After finding the hotel and completing the check-in procedures, I went to Teitan High School to complete the admission procedures.
The whole process was still quite smooth.
But even so, by the time the two came out of Teitan High School, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
The weather in Tokyo today is really good, with clear skies and bright sunshine.
Next to the road in front of the high school gate, where a large stone tablet with the words "Di Dan" inscribed in a flamboyant style, a girl with tiger teeth was sitting by a flower bed, rummaging through a bulging shoulder backpack to take inventory.
In total, there is a set of textbooks, two sets of school uniforms, a student ID card, and a full set of stationery.
By the way, the stationery is free.
After all, he is an excellent student transferred from Westminster School, so he still has some status.
"Well, then we have to go to school again starting tomorrow."
After quickly zipping up his backpack, Sera Masumi looked up at Serabelle, who had been standing beside him from the beginning, tapping on her phone without saying a word. There was a hint of melancholy on her face.
"Isn't it good to go to school?" Serabel put away her phone and looked back at her.
"It's not that it's bad..." The girl with tiger teeth grinned slightly, "It's just that I feel like the weekend is coming to an end before I can even enjoy it. I always feel a little sad. Can you understand this feeling?"
"That's a good question, but isn't it a bit too blunt to ask this question to someone who has never experienced student life?" Serabel replied with a shrug.
"Yeah, that's right..."
After a slight pause, Sera Masumi seemed to remember something for a moment, then kept silent and ended the topic a little hastily.
But within two seconds, she yawned again.
The pointed little canine teeth reflect a crystal luster under the sunlight.
Serabelle raised her eyebrows slightly. "Come to think of it, I just checked and there's a nice cafe nearby. Do you want to go for a drink? Of course, if you're really sleepy, you can go back to the hotel and sleep right now."
"No, no, no, forget it. I'll just have a cup of coffee." Sera Masumi opened her hazy eyes and smiled. "Since we've decided to stay in Japan for a long time, we have to get over the jet lag first. At worst, I can just go to bed early at night."
"Then let's go. The cafe is not far from here. Just go two corners ahead and it will be there."
Just like the British often like to use No. xx, xx Street to locate specific geographical locations, the same is true in Japan.
However, Japan does not subdivide each street, but uses the word "machi" to summarize. If you want to be specific about a certain street or a smaller area, you will use a number plus the machime and the house number to determine it.
The cafe that Serabelle and the others are about to visit is located at the easternmost side of Sanmachimo in Beika-cho.
The name of the cafe is quite down-to-earth and easy to remember.
Since it is located in Beika-cho, it is simply called Beika Cafe.
Perhaps thanks to the name, the cafe's business is pretty good.
By the time Serabelle and Sera Masumi arrived at their destination and entered the door, half of the twenty-four tables in the cafe, each measuring four by six, were occupied.
Among them were those who had plans to hang out with friends on the weekend, college students who wanted to find a secluded place to finish their papers, office workers who brought their laptops to work overtime, and... probably a JK with long black hair who was about to go out to see her boyfriend but got pestered by her own younger brother and wanted to cry and make a fuss, but couldn't just chase him away and could only smile with embarrassment on her face but politely.
Since Serabelle and Sera Masumi only planned to have a drink and then leave, they just found an empty seat and sat down.
As soon as Sera Masamune sat down, he noticed the former looking sideways, not knowing what he was looking at. Out of curiosity, he followed the direction of his gaze, then leaned forward across the table and moved closer, lowering his voice.
"So Bernie-chan actually likes that type?"
"Do not--"
Serabelle exhaled slowly.
"I was just thinking that girl's hairstyle looked like a unicorn."
Chapter 6 Someone died? Great!
It was certainly not polite to stare at someone's hairstyle like this, so Serabelle looked away after taking a quick glance.
But this doesn't mean that he really started to concentrate on drinking coffee.
On the contrary, Serabelle was still paying attention to everyone's actions in the store.
"Really? Didn't I tell you, Conan, that I was going on a date with Shinichi today?"
In a coffee shop booth that was only separated from the middle of the street by a huge floor-to-ceiling window, a unicorn JK was still coaxing the little boy with glasses who was forcing himself to stay beside her with both helplessness and doting.
"Conan, you go back first. I'll bring you some delicious food after the date, okay?"
"Eh? Sister Xiaolan, don't do that~" The little boy with glasses called Conan pouted his lips, looking reluctant, "Besides, I haven't seen Brother Shinichi for a long time, I also want to see Brother Shinichi."
"This one……"
Hearing this, Unicorn JK looked even more embarrassed.
"Well, I'm sorry, Conan, but the person I want to meet today...is not Shinichi."
"Not Shinichi-san? Then who is it? Could he be more important than Shinichi-san?" Conan persisted.
"Of course, there's no comparison between the two of them."
When mentioning the person she was going to meet next, the embarrassment on Unicorn JK's face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by an inexplicable happiness and attachment.
"Oh, yes, I remember you like to eat cake, right Conan? How about I buy you a cake? You wait here for a while, and you must go back after you finish eating the cake."
Having said this, Unicorn JK didn't care whether her proposal was accepted or not. She stood up from the booth, said hello to the waiter, said that she would only be away for a short while and would be back soon, and then left the cafe.
Serabelle heard every word of this conversation.
The dishes he and Sera Masumi ordered were served quickly.
There were two cups in total, one cappuccino and one iced Americano.
"Oh wow, let me try it~"
When the coffee was served, Masumi Sera was the first to take the iced American coffee she ordered and took a big gulp.
Then, not surprisingly—
"Rua! It's so bitter!"
It seemed that the taste was so bad that the girl with tiger teeth complained without thinking, and her whole face wrinkled.
Serabelle sipped the steaming cappuccino in her hand and glanced sideways.
"Who told you to order an Americano? That's what Americano is like, pure bitterness with no other flavors. If you don't have a special liking for pure bitterness, I suggest you order something with a more mellow flavor, such as Maxwell House, and then add a lot of saccharin and creamer, and it will taste good."
"I see. No wonder the café clerk had such a weird look on his face when I asked for an iced Americano..."
As Sera Masumi spoke, her eyes moved to the coffee in the former's hand, and her little tongue licked her lips inadvertently.
"By the way, what did Bernie-chan order?"
"Cappuccino."
"It seems like I've never drunk it before. Can you let me have a taste?" The smile on the face of the girl with tiger teeth gradually became flattering.
