Problem Girls Strategy

"By the way, Liang, for this MV I want to make a medley of songs from the band's album, and I need you to do it."

Liang nodded in agreement, then continued to play with the portable thermostat in his hand.

"Kita, is it okay for you to sing with Shiraishi Yuzuki this time?"

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

After Jiang Zao finished explaining the recording, Goto Ichiri slowly raised his hand: "Um, um... Jiang Zao, I, I want a reward!"

"Pochi-chan is becoming more and more straightforward, no problem!"

Liang stretched out his hand between the couple, and said with a serious face: "Wait, isn't it a bit too partial to only give the reward to Pochi-chan?"

"Huh? I don't mind. Anyway, Pochi-chan is Jiang Zao's girlfriend, so it's normal for her to be a little partial to him."

"No, our band is a whole. If we want to reward them, we must give them to everyone."

"Ah, I-I think what Ryo said makes sense."

Chapter 194 Hard-core Forced

Jiang Zao finally agreed to make a dish that the girls had never eaten before as a reward for them after they finished their band career. This request was not a problem for him at all.

The truth about scumbag is discussed in the group.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "I have already made an appointment with Irisou-san, are you free, Sawamura-san and Kato-san?"

Eriri: "What do you mean by free time? After coming to Antarctica, I realized that life here is quite monotonous. After completing the assigned tasks every day, there is nothing to do."

Kato Megumi: "After all, we are not professional scientific researchers, so we can only do some odd jobs."

Eriri: "Yeah, I took some pictures of penguins last time I went out, do you want to see them?"

Kato Megumi: "I want to see it. I didn't see it several times before. What a pity."

Eriri: "[Picture][Picture], I'll send the rest to you privately."

Kato Megumi: "So cute, thank you Sawamura-san."

Eriri: "You're welcome. We're pretty close now, so there's no need to keep addressing me like that, right?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Oh? Is Sawamura-san trying to get closer to us?"

Eriri: "I didn't tell you, a black-bellied girl, but I told Kato-san."

Kato Megumi: "Then I will start calling you Eriri."

Eriri: "Then I'll call you Hui, too."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Please stop going off topic, and remember to go to Irina's room together later."

Eriri: "Oh? Are you unhappy because you feel isolated?"

Kato Megumi: "Eri, I think it's better not to say anything."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Haha, only someone like you, Sawamura-san, who has a poor brain and chest, would get angry over such a small matter. I can also address Kato-san as a friend, don't you think so, Kei?"

Kato Megumi: "Of course, Shiyu."

Eriri: "Sinister girl!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Tsundere monster!"

Kato Megumi: “….”

Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha, who were arguing with each other in the chat group, did not continue their quarrel in the group when they met. Instead, they snorted at each other and sandwiched Kato Megumi in between to act as a buffer.

They knocked on the door and walked into Chao Shicai's room. They were immediately shocked by the large number of dolls inside. Looking around, there were dolls placed on the desk, bed, wardrobe and even chairs in the room.

In her arms, Irisou Shicai was holding a doll that looked like Jiang Zao, and was placing snacks and drinks on the desk. When she saw Kasumigaoka Utaha and the others coming, she immediately greeted them, "Welcome, um...what should I say next? Please feel free to do as you please."

"Iruo-san, I'll just get straight to the point and ask you, are you and Jiang Zao-san in that kind of relationship?" This time, Kasumigaoka Utaha chose to get straight to the point, avoiding the last time where she asked for a long time without getting the information she wanted.

She had no idea that Irisua Shicai's personality was not as cute as her appearance. If we were to talk about the most aggressive and mischievous person in Mihama Academy, it would be her.

They didn't look like they were here to destroy the relationship between my brother and me.

Kazama Ichihime told Irisua Shicai how to deal with such a situation. In situations like those of Kasumigaoka Utaha and the others, she just needed to answer truthfully. However, Irisua Shicai still has the mentality of a child and plans to tease them.

"Yes, my brother was really too much at the beginning. He pushed me to the ground and asked me to agree to his request." Ruchao Shicai pouted, with her legs crossed in the air, looking very aggrieved.

After investigating for so long, she finally heard some explosive news. Kasumigaoka Shiyu suppressed her excitement and leaned forward slightly to ask, "What did Jiang Zao force you to do?"

"This..." Ruchao Shicai hesitated for a long time but couldn't give an answer.

"Classmate Ruchao, just speak up. We will definitely seek justice for you!" Ying Lili waved her fists angrily. She didn't expect Jiang Zao to force a girl to agree to his request. This was really too much!

"When we were training, my brother forced me to call him instructor..." After saying this, Irishao Shicai shyly covered her little face with the doll.

Eriri's rage came to an abrupt end, and she was petrified on the chair as if she was staring into the eyes of Medusa.

My pants... no, I rolled up my sleeves and was ready to fight Jiang Zao, but all you talked about was such a trivial matter?

Kato Hui was even more curious about the content of Ruchao Shicai's training: "What did Jiang Zao teach you?"

"Let me think..." Ruchao Shicai counted on his fingers: "3,000-meter run, push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, frog jumps, squats, and individual tactical training."

"So hard-core?"

Just hearing the name of the project made Kato Megumi feel her calves trembling. What was most astonishing was that the seemingly thin Shicai Irisho actually persisted under such training.

Kasumigaoka Utaha carefully observed Irisuo's slender limbs, but did not see the strong muscle lines she had imagined: "Irisuo, are you alright?"

"Hmm? I'm in good health. My brother said that it's more difficult for girls to develop muscular lines than boys. And now I'm not maintaining the original training intensity, so you can't see any traces of training."

As Ruchao Shicai spoke, she raised her right hand to show the biceps on her slender arm. She looked no different from an ordinary person, but only Jiang Zao knew that she could hang on him with her arms for more than ten minutes.

"Wait, Kasumigaoka Utaha, your question has gone off track."

After being reminded by Eriri, Kasumigaoka Utaha finally realized that her main task was to investigate the relationship between Iruo Shicai and Jiang Zao. She cleared her throat and said, "Ahem, Iruo-san..."

"Stop!" Ruchao Shicai raised her hand to interrupt Kasumigaoka Shiyu, took off her slippers and sat cross-legged on the bed, hugging the Jiang Zao doll tightly. Her red eyes showed a maturity that did not match her childish appearance. "I know what you want to ask, but I am not a very patient person, so I will just briefly tell you."

"First of all, my brother and I have no blood relationship at all. I call him that only because the other name is more inconvenient."

"Secondly, I don't care what kind of woman my brother is with or what kind of personality she has. Sister Yiji will handle these matters."

"Third, what my brother has done for us is far beyond your imagination, so don't look at our relationship with the ordinary eyes of the world."

"The fourth and final point is that I suggest you go find Manman next. I'm done. I won't answer any questions you have because I'm going to go play with my brother later."

Chapter 195: The Matryoshka Mission is a Bad Civilization

Kasumigaoka Utaha did get a straightforward answer from Irisou Shicai, but she sent her out without giving them the chance to ask questions, leaving the three of them with only a lot of questions and their next target - Matsushima Mitsuru.

"I say, could it be that they have already colluded in advance to decide who we should look for next?" It's not surprising that Ying Lili has such thoughts, because the attitudes of the girls they asked were almost the same, and they all pointed out the next person they were going to look for.

Just like playing a classic brave RPG game, in order to save the princess you must first cross the river. To cross the river you have to find a boatman, but the boatman’s boat is broken, so you need to find a carpenter. The carpenter’s tools have been taken away by monsters, so you have to go to the monster’s lair to get the tools back.

When the tools were given to the carpenter, he did not have enough raw materials. The brave man had to go to the merchant again. However, the merchant also had troubles and would not sell anything to him unless he solved the problem.

Often the hero has to complete seven or eight tasks before taking the first step to save the princess. The process is extremely cumbersome and boring.

As for investigating Jiang Zao, it just changed from a tedious task to a matter of them following the instructions given by the previous girl and finding the corresponding person.

Utaha Kasumigaoka did consider whether these girls had discussed it in advance, but after thinking about it carefully, there was no need for them to do so. What's the use of deciding the order in advance? It wouldn't erase their memory of Jiang Zao having a harem. Doing such a thing would be purely useless.

"There is absolutely no need for them to do this. Adjusting the order won't change our attitude of continuing the investigation. We should think more about how to question Matsushima-san more effectively next."

"I do care about what Irisao said about Jiang Zao doing a lot for them." Eriri had never heard Yumiko Sakaki tell the story between her and Jiang Zao, and she thought they were just ordinary acquaintances who got together.

"I almost forgot that you don't know about Sakaki-san yet. Never mind. I'll just tell you briefly so that you don't talk nonsense later."

"Why are you pretending to be so great? You just know a little more."

"Sawamura-san, do you want to listen?"

"You talk, I'm listening."

Kasumigaoka Utaha recounted the general experience of Sakaki Yumiko, which shocked Eriri. Only then did she know that Jiang Zao had done such a big thing before. She actually kidnapped the heir of the Tohama Electric Railway Group and freed her from the huge family that was like a birdcage.

"Do you want to continue the investigation today?" Kato Megumi asked Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was talking until her mouth was dry.

"No, let's stop here today. I have some things to deal with in my room. I'll go see Matsushima-san in a few days."

"Is that so? Then Shiyu, Eriri, I'm leaving first."

"Well, see you later."

"Ah? Oh, bye."

Kato Megumi said goodbye to Kasumigaoka Utaha who was in a hurry to go back to write, and Eriri whose brain was about to crash. She had no work to do today, so she thought of taking a walk around the base to see if she could run into any penguins.

Even though he had the photos that Eriri had sent him, getting photos from someone else and taking photos of penguins himself were two completely different things.

Kato Megumi, who had just changed into outdoor clothes, met Jiang Zao who walked in from outside the base wearing a thin long-sleeved shirt. She couldn't help but widen her eyes, her cherry mouth slightly opened, and she looked shocked.

"Oh, Hui, are you getting ready to go out?"

Looking at Jiang Zao who greeted her nonchalantly, Kato Hui rubbed her eyes subconsciously. After confirming that he was wearing a thin long-sleeved shirt, she asked him in surprise: "Jiang Zao, you went out wearing such thin clothes?"

"I'm testing the company's products. Don't follow my example. It's very dangerous."

"What kind of product can allow you to go out in Antarctica wearing autumn clothes?"

"Here, this thing." Jiang Zao took out an oval object from his pocket and showed it to Kato Hui: "It's called a portable constant temperature device. With it, I won't be afraid of the cold weather outside. Do you want to try it?"

Kato Megumi took the oval object doubtfully, and as soon as she held it in her hand, a warm current lingered around her body. Kato Megumi asked Jiang Zao to stay away from the door, then opened a crack in the door so that she could stretch out her hand and stretched her right hand out.

She was shocked to find that her right hand could not feel any coolness in the howling cold wind, so she leaned half of her body out and still did not feel any cold. Now Kato Megumi believed what Jiang Zao said.

“This device is truly incredible.”

"It would be better if you said this with a more surprised tone and a more expressive expression."

Kato Hui closed the door and handed the portable thermostat back to Jiang Zao: "I'm really sorry that I don't have any expression."

Jiang Zao stopped Kato Hui who was about to leave. He could see that she was a little unhappy and apologized quickly: "Hui, I just said it casually, don't take it seriously."

"You just told the truth, that's why I'm not angry."

"Then why are you going back? Aren't you planning to go out?"

"I forgot to get something."

Jiang Zao released his hand on Kato Hui's shoulder: "Okay, I misunderstood. If you want to go out, remember to call me."

"Why did I call you here? To listen to you complain about my lack of expression."

"You said you weren't angry."

"I didn't!" Kato Hui emphasized, frowned and turned around to say something, but when she saw Jiang Zao's smiling expression, she realized that he said it on purpose.

"You are not showing cute behavior."

"...You don't even forget to let me express my emotions more at times like this."

"Hmm? Didn't we agree to help you solve the problem of your presence? Although we didn't have many opportunities during the safety training and at sea, we have a lot of time now that we are at the base, right?"

"Thank you."

Jiang Zao waved his hands and replied nonchalantly: "Why thank me? A promise is a promise. I will definitely solve the things I promised you. Just don't think I'm annoying."

"Shall we go out now?"

"You're not taking anything?"

"It's okay to take it or not. I want to go outside and see if I can see any penguins."

"You should have told me about this earlier. I saw it when I came back just now."

"Then let's get going quickly. Before that, would you like to change into your down jacket?"

Jiang Zao looked at his long sleeves and said, "Wait for me then. This portable thermostat is quite convenient, but it won't last long. Without energy supply, it can only last about an hour at most."

"Ah."

After hurriedly running back to the bedroom and changing into a thick down jacket, Jiang Zao accompanied Kato Hui to go out to look for penguins. Fortunately, the group of penguins he saw was not too far from their previous location. They were standing outside the base and looking inside curiously.
