"My lover."

Chiho said meaningfully, "But your feelings are really quite substantial."

She was implying that the girl's feelings were far too heavy.

Because she didn't have any substantial evidence to prove that the man had cheated on her.

Everything was just her conjecture.

However, the girl didn't seem to notice. Instead, she said, "Yes, this is the first time I've ever liked someone. So, I'm very anxious and uneasy. Every day after we part, I think about him all the time."

"I just can't stop."

She explained, but Chiharu Tokisaka simply said, "It's not free here. It's a paid service."

Without any hesitation, the girl simply thought for a moment and calculated how much money she had left.

"Three thousand yen." The girl said decisively, "Three thousand yen, could you please help me?"

"Of course, no problem."

Chiharu Tokisaka said with a smile, "I will definitely help you see the true colors of that boy."

Seeing Chiharu Tokisaka's serious expression, the girl finally relaxed a little.

She pulled out a piece of paper with a list of the places the boy had recently visited. Most of the time was spent at school, with only a small portion of his time spent outside the city.

The girl said to Chiharu Tokisaka, "Senpai, this map shows my lover's recent activity route. If you follow the route, you'll definitely see him."

“Okay, I understand.” Chiharu Tokisaka put down the paper. “Tomorrow morning, tomorrow morning, I will find out for you.”

"Thank you so much."

The girl stood up and bowed again.

She smiled with relief: "It's so good to have you here."

After the girl left, Chiharu Tokisaka said somewhat apologetically, "I'm sorry, I couldn't get you to help this time."

"Huh? Why?"

Chiho asked, feigning ignorance.

Chiharu Tokisaka explained, "Because there are some places you can't go, Chiho-san. Also, your scarlet hair is too conspicuous, making it impossible to set up an ambush or anything like that. And there are some places you absolutely can't go, Natsugiri."

Chiho feigned a sad and dejected expression: "Well, alright, alright. It seems this is the only way."

"Well then, I'll be going now." Chiharu Tokisaka pumped her fist in delight. "Hmph, the time has finally come when I can make money. I'm determined to defy fate!"

Chiharu Tokisaka said to Chiho, "If you and Natsugiri are about to leave, remember to close the door. Even though no one steals anything in the school, it's still better to close the door."

"I didn't look at the problem."

Chiharu made a gesture to her, indicating that she agreed.

Finally, Chiharu Tokisaka left and began to work seriously.

At this moment, Chiho looked at Zhou in the afternoon and said, "As expected, it's just the two of us again."

Xia Wuzhao ignored this and continued reading her book as usual, then remained silent.

Chiho said softly, "Are you really not going on Saturday?"

Xia Wuzhao said, "Mm."

The girl said with a regretful look, "I dreamt that we went somewhere. That's why I invited you. But I didn't expect you wouldn't come. It's such a pity, I was planning to dive from there. If you had gone, you might have seen a really nice sight."

Please take one day off.

Sigh, there have been so many upsetting things happening in my life lately.

The updates are a bit slow.

I'm taking a day off today. Starting tomorrow, I'll resume updating twice a day, totaling 6,000 words.

One chapter in the afternoon, one chapter in the evening.

Chapter 262 The Promise Buried in Time

Chiho spoke these words as if nothing was wrong, with a smile on her face.

It seemed like they were just saying ordinary words.

"But that's definitely not how it works."

Do you remember our promise?

"We made a promise, didn't we? That when things came to an end, we would go and see the ruins in the sea."

"If, if you refuse, then our relationship ends here."

"Then I will die."

"You're so clever, you must have figured it out by now."

Chiho looked at Natsumi with a smile, waiting for her answer.

Xia Wuzhao didn't look at her, but instead looked out the window.

He said, "The sky is absolutely blue."

Chiho ran a finger through her hair and said, "But this blue is quite rare. If we're always looking forward to blue, won't we feel disappointed when we look at the white sky all the time?"

"I think it's better to look forward to a white sky. That way, you'll feel lucky most of the time, and it can bring you a good mood for the day."

After a long silence, Xia Wuzhao finally asked, "What time is Saturday, and where are we going?"

"How about we do it the same as usual?"

The girl said, "I'll have the driver pick you up at the school gate. After all, Aoi definitely won't let me go to your house. So, waiting at the school gate is the best option."

"Besides, you can also come and take Aoi to school. It's a win-win situation!"

Chiho said this, thinking of Natsugiri Kai.

"Then it's settled."

Xia Wuzhao responded with this sentence.

"Ah."

The girl laughed happily, her crimson hair seeming to shimmer at that moment.

After school, Chiho got into the car and went home.

Xia Wuzhao went to find Tokisaka Chiharu because Ai could sense the location of the demonic energy.

Natsugiri Kai easily found Tokisaka Chiharu.

Chiharu Tokisaka was located on the third floor of the club building. When Kai Natsugiri found Chiharu Tokisaka, she was still somewhat anxious.

She waved to Xia Wuzhao and whispered, "Hey, don't get caught!"

Xia Wuzhao bent down and went to Tokisaka Chiharu's side.

Her gray hair was tied into a low ponytail, somewhat like a witch's braid.

She whispered, "That boy is inside. Don't let him find out."

Xia Wuzhao asked, "Have you found any evidence?"

"Yes, we've found the evidence." Chiharu Tokisaka showed Natsuki Kai the photos in her hand.

It was a photo of a boy and a girl hugging, and they seemed to be saying something intimately.

"Then, the commission should be considered complete."

Xia Wuzhao said, "You seem quite relaxed, senior."

"Oh, it's really uncomfortable," Chiharu Tokisaka emphasized softly. "Several times, I felt like they were about to find out. But I tried really, really hard. That's how I managed to capture evidence without being discovered."

Chiharu Tokisaka showed Natsuki Kai the wound on her arm: "Look, this wound was caused by falling on the playground."

The girl sighed helplessly; "I didn't expect them to go to the water and electricity room in the woods behind the playground. I accidentally fell down."

After finishing her own story, Chiharu Tokisaka finally looked at Kai Natsugiri.

"But why are you here? Wasn't it agreed that I was supposed to handle this kind of thing by myself today?"

The girl looked puzzled, but Xia Wuzhao said, "I happened to come here because I was seeing Chiho off."

"Is that so?" Chiharu Tokisaka covered her forehead in exasperation. "So, it was just a coincidence?"

Xia Wuzhao said, "So what are you going to do now? Are you leaving?"

Chiharu Tokisaka said, "I want to take more photos so that when I hand them over to my juniors, they will be more convinced."

"Oh."

Xia Wuzhao said, "Then I won't bother you any longer."

The girl laughed: "Okay, you should go now. Don't let him find out, or things will get messed up."

After leaving, Xia Wuzhao went straight home.

Chiharu Tokisaka carefully took a few more photos before returning to the Helping Club.

She glanced at the literary society next door, which was already locked, before stepping into her helper department.

When she tried to contact the girl, she discovered that she didn't have the girl's phone number at all.

"It seems like tomorrow is the only option."

Chiharu Tokisaka murmured something and sat down in the classroom again.

As I watched the sky outside begin to glow with a faint yellow hue, I took a sip of water.

"Do you want to go home?"

But there was nothing to do at home, since the house was empty, with no friends or anyone else.

"But it's useless at school either."

Chiharu Tokisaka thought for a moment, then finished the rest of the water and put the bottles in the corner.

After accumulating some, you can exchange it for money.

After standing up, take a deep breath.

Close the window, leaving only one vent.

Chiharu Tokisaka decided to leave first, since staying at school wasn't a good idea.

After closing the door, she did not leave immediately.

Instead, she went to the classroom first to see if there was anything she could help with. But when she got there, she found that everyone had already left, so the girl had no choice but to leave the school gate with a sigh.

Going down the slope, the October dusk was still a bit chilly. Although she was wearing a knitted sweater on top, she was only wearing a skirt on the bottom.

Although she could tolerate it, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

When she arrived at the platform to wait for the tram, she saw two men dressed in suits and ties, with their hair slicked back and shiny.

They all sat down dejectedly, carrying their handbags, on the chairs.

Chiharu Tokisaka stood next to the station, a little distance away from them.

A man in a suit took out a bottle of beer from his bag and drank it, the white foam dripping from the corner of his mouth onto his shiny leather shoes.

Perhaps because he hadn't had a satisfying drink, he irritably loosened his tie and haphazardly stuffed it into his bag.

He drank it down in large gulps, looking utterly despondent.

"Hey! You, watch your image!"

Another man in a suit whispered.

But the man in the suit who was drinking broke down: "I! I don't understand! Why was I fired! I worked so hard! Senior! You understand, right? I was definitely the hardest working person in the company, so why was I fired?"

"I don't understand! I'm always the first one to arrive and the last one to leave every day."

"I've been working overtime to the point of developing stomach problems. Don't you think I've contributed anything to the company? Absolutely not! I've contributed a great deal. Last time, when there was a problem at the company, I was the one who solved it! Senior! Why should I be fired?!"

The senior colleague also looked gloomy: "There's nothing we can do. The company's profits aren't good. We can't afford to support so many people, and recently we've recruited some students from prestigious universities."

"But I'm a student at a prestigious university too!"

The man in the suit wept bitterly, tears soaking his clothes: "I'm a student from a prestigious university! My qualifications are on par with theirs, and I also have work experience and am familiar with all aspects of the company. Why do they fire me when they're hiring a new person?"
