It hurts so much, it's so uncomfortable.

The moment she lay down on the bed, Nozomi Tojo felt aches and pains all over her body.

Ugh, it hurts so much.

I shouldn't have acted recklessly in the first place.

With her head buried in the pillow, Nozomi Tojo felt like she was about to collapse.

I just want to rest.

But not yet.

She didn't want her family to worry or notice anything unusual.

Although I could tell my family that I went to train with my friends from μ's.

But it's not foolproof either.

My friends used to come over to our house often, and my parents knew them too.

It would be troublesome if the secret were accidentally exposed.

"I'm so tired."

With a sigh, Nozomi Tojo felt incredibly tired.

This applies to both the physical and mental aspects.

But she still didn't really want to give up.

I'm still quite confused.

But she was unwilling to give up just like that.

Let's try to hold on a little longer; maybe things will get better?

This is what Nozomi Tojo is thinking right now.

Clutching her pillow, Nozomi Tojo's eyelids kept drooping.

I'm so tired, I need to take a short rest.

I'll get up in a bit; I'll just rest for a little while.

Finally, Nozomi Tojo fell into a deep sleep, clutching her pillow.

In the research institute on the other side—

Good afternoon, Sakamoto!

Looking at the energetic girl in front of him, Sakamoto pushed up his glasses with a serious expression.

It must be said that Wu Jialouluo is a type of person he is not good at dealing with.

What's even more troublesome is that this girl has become obsessed with her.

It's really troublesome.

Standing next to Sakamoto, Luo Zhen glanced at Sakamoto, then at Wu Jialouluo, who was waiting for Sakamoto to greet him.

After a moment's thought, he revealed a look of sudden realization.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"You two can talk slowly."

After giving Sakamoto a "good luck" look, Rozen strode away.

Sakamoto was not given a chance to speak at all.

Chapter 845, Section 866: Kyoki: About being mistaken for Tojo Nozomi

Looking at the girl in front of him who was looking at him with some expectation, Sakamoto silently pushed up his glasses.

The reflection, seemingly from nowhere, made it impossible to see his expression.

Sakamoto admitted that he wasn't very good at dealing with this energetic girl who had a lot of feelings for him.

After all, the other party was a member of an assassin clan.

Their views on many aspects are quite different from those of ordinary people.

Although Sakamoto's views have gradually changed since becoming an investigator, it's a bit too much to ask me to deal with girls of this caliber right away.

To be honest, Sakamoto had never even considered dating.

It's not a matter of sexual orientation or anything like that.

It's just that I simply don't have any ideas.

Or rather, none of the girls around him could truly get into Sakamoto's heart and understand him.

Well, given Sakamoto's past behavior, it's unlikely that a normal girl would go in.

Good afternoon, Garuda.

Suppressing the urge to sigh, Sakamoto spoke to the girl before him.

Sighing in front of someone is really quite rude.

People in Japan are very particular, to the point that they're practically inseparable from the word "politeness."

This 'politeness' has gradually become somewhat pathological in their daily lives.

In many anime works, you can see someone treating someone to a meal, and the person being treated will always say, "It looks delicious," while the person treating will respond, "It's just the way you like it."

It wasn't that I really thought it was that delicious; it was just out of politeness.

Let me give you another real-world example.

A celebrity once complained that he had a business conversation with a Japanese person.

The Japanese man smiled obsequiously, bowed slightly, and rattled off a long string of words.

After listening, the translator said, "He said hello, it's nice to meet you."

Simply put, everything else besides this sentence is just empty politeness and meaningless chatter.

It's fine to say these polite things, but if you don't, the other person will think you're rude, and it's normal for them to treat you coldly.

Therefore, it is very difficult for Chinese time travelers to become prominent figures as soon as they arrive in the world.

After all, I'm really not used to this kind of almost pathological politeness and formality.

"Uh-huh."

Wu Jialouluo nodded vigorously, his eyes shining as he looked at Sakamoto.

Actually, she doesn't care much about these kinds of manners.

No one taught her these things.

After all, learning these things is useless to her.

Does that mean you have to politely inform the victim before committing murder?

It's not like some zombie in a game that has to bow before biting someone.

Wu Jialouluo opened his mouth, wanting to shout to Sakamoto: Come and have my baby!

But then I thought better of it; Sakamoto seemed to really dislike doing this.

Furthermore, at her mother's suggestion, she visited a senior named Asukai Kiki.

The other person has only been in one relationship.

But he successfully won over Luo Zhen, who had absolutely no concept of romance.

She was quite well-known among the female employees in the government office.

On the other side, after giving Sakamoto plenty of space, Rōzō tidied up briefly and left the research institute.

It feels more and more like clocking in for work.

Luo Zhen stood at the intersection with a bag on his back, wearing the uniform of Soubu High School, looking like a student who had just graduated from school.

Although school had long since ended.

But the club activities here can sometimes keep us busy until very late.

So the people around them weren't surprised.

Speaking of which, Luo Zhen suddenly remembered that he seemed to have a club as well.

Back then, out of some morbid curiosity, they even suggested the name Hung Hing for the club.

I wonder if those guys have inherited the will of their predecessors and made a name for themselves in their own circles.

I doubt it exists.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that I only went there when I was initially just a registered member.

I never went to see it again after that.

Go check it out when you have some free time these next few days; you're almost graduating.

After letting the idea pass through his mind briefly, Luo Zhen stopped thinking about it.

For Luo Zhen, it was just a passing thought.

Maybe I'll forget about it later.

"Hmm? That's............."

Out of the corner of his eye, Luo Zhen caught sight of two familiar figures and looked over in surprise.

In her line of sight, 'Nozomi Tojo' was having some difficulty dealing with Honoka Takasaka.

"So, Xi, you're acting really strange today."

Touching her chin, Honoka Takasaka looked at 'Nozomi Tojo' in front of her with a puzzled expression.

After looking her up and down, he confirmed that it was indeed the 'Nozomi Tojo' he knew.

But it feels really strange.

There is an indescribable feeling.

"Really? Or is it just my imagination?"

With a vacant look in her eyes, Jingxi stammered.

Although she also has Tojo Nozomi's memories, she is not Tojo Nozomi after all.

While walking down the street, she was suddenly approached by Nozomi Tojo's friend, who then bombarded her with questions.

Jingxi felt like her whole body was going numb.

I desperately want to escape, but I can't.

In fact, Kagami could simply admit that she is not Tojo Nozomi, but someone else entirely.

But for some reason, she did not immediately deny it.

Instead, they remained vague and ambiguous.

"Strange, really strange."

Touching her chin, Honoka Takasaka looked like she was possessed by Sherlock Holmes.

They kept looking Jingxi up and down.

She was certain that Xi was hiding something from her.

She had noticed before that Xi had become much stronger recently.

And he suddenly took leave in the afternoon.

Although the reason was valid, Honoka Takasaka was still very suspicious.

As Tojo Nozomi's good friend, Honoka Takasaka could naturally notice the recent changes in Tojo Nozomi.

A girl suddenly changed without anyone noticing.
