The all-powerful middle schooler

"Ahem, Kotori-san, did you find anything?"
Ying Lili coughed twice, controlled her expression which was almost out of control, and then continued to ask.
"Sorry, I almost forgot. In this era, even my Evil King's True Eyes have lost their former effectiveness. I can't see too clearly, but... I have a hunch that the 'thief' is among you!"
At this moment, Rikka Takanashi's eyes became sharp and she pointed at everyone.
Of course, intuition is not something that can win everyone's trust.
"Come on, Sawamura-kun, this guy is totally unreliable!"
"Let's let Hanesegawa-san come!"
"Yes, if it was Hanesegawa-san, he would definitely be able to analyze it."
Although everyone had different expressions this time, no one was afraid anymore, and some even had serious doubts about her.
"You actually doubted the master's judgment of death! You fools..."
Toumori Sanae expressed her dissatisfaction, but was ignored by everyone.
"Well..."
It is difficult to offend the public, and even Eriri cannot speak for Rikka at this time.
"There is no need for the minister to step in. We are enough."
Under Nibutani's surprised gaze, Natsukawa Masaki stepped forward. Her silver hair and snow-white skin set off each other, making her look like an elf walking out of the ice and snow world.
This mysterious and elegant temperament immediately attracted the attention of the whole audience.
"So pretty! She looks almost as pretty as Sawamura-san."
"It seems to be from the Xiachuan family..."
Everyone in the painting department immediately stopped talking and listened to her.
At this moment, a secret sight quietly entered from the unnoticed corner of the windowsill.
"Xiachuan, it's your turn to perform!"
Unaware of someone's attention, Natsukawa Mayurō began her performance.
In her opinion, the Far East Magic Society was a habitat that she had found with great difficulty. If she wanted it to continue to exist, she naturally had to maintain the fantasy of certain people, lest some people wake up from the blow and become ordinary and boring people. This would not only make her feel bored, but would also likely lead to the collapse of the Far East Magic Society.
So, she stepped forward, both for herself and to respond to that person's expectations.
Only by gaining the minister's favor can she do certain things.
"In fact, it's similar to what Kotori-san said. I think the thief is among you. Especially the one holding the key, I am the most suspicious!"
Xia Chuan Zhenliang's eyes flashed coldly and his words were shocking.
"I, I didn't! I didn't steal it!"
The eyes of the other members of the painting club fell on a tall, brown-haired second-year senior. This was their club leader, Hamada, and the key had always been kept by her.
In fact, everyone suspected her at the beginning, but no one wanted to say anything that would be detrimental to unity, so they took advantage of the situation and asked outsiders to help.
Eriri was silent at this time.
She didn't want to be the bad guy any more than anyone else.
However, she soon began to doubt her previous judgment based on the other person's expression.
Could it be that the minister’s performance was too superb?
No, in terms of acting skills, there is only one person here who can compare with her, and Senior Hamada is definitely not one of them.
"Why don't you tell the truth, Death! What have you done since yesterday!"
Toumori Sanae pointed at the other person, as if she had determined something.
This is putting pressure.
"I didn't do anything. I was the last one to close the shop as usual and then went home. When I came here today, I found that the painting was gone. It really has nothing to do with me!"
Hamada tried hard to distance herself from the incident and her emotions were not stable because she had worked so hard to get the position of director as a common student in the academy. If this matter were confirmed, it could be said that her life would be over!
"The mental quality is a bit poor, but it's definitely not her."
Izumi Hanegawa, who was secretly watching from outside, made an easy judgment.
However, others were still skeptical.
"You can also say goodbye to the other members and sneak back to take the painting away!"
Natsukawa Masuyoshi pressed the issue once more, his eyes filled with deep pressure that pierced people's hearts.
"Absolutely not! I went shopping with my friends after school! I have evidence for this, I can ask those stores!"
Although Hamada was sweating profusely, he still had a solid argument.
This performance temporarily dispelled her doubts.
"Does anyone else have a key?"
she asked again.
"The art teacher, she's our instructor, but she doesn't come to the club very often."
Hamada answered quickly, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
"Then please ask the art teacher to come over again."
Natsukawa Masuyoshi used a commanding tone, which was very strong, but very useful.
Is this the ability of the Greedy Witch?
Rikka Takanashi and Sanae Toumori's impression of her has changed greatly.
"By the way, where the hell is Quan? What on earth is this idiot planning?"
Eriri went to the corridor and called her art teacher, but what bothered her most was that she hadn't seen her childhood sweetheart.
A few minutes later, the art teacher arrived at the scene.
"Was the painting stolen? Who is so abominable! That is a prize-winning treasure!"
She was surprised at first, and then she realized that she was also a suspect, and she couldn't help feeling a little resentful.
"I went on a date with Darling yesterday. How could I possibly do something like this? If you don't believe me, I even recorded a video with Darling yesterday..."
She took out her cell phone from her pocket, intending to prove her innocence.
"Alright, alright! Teacher, just keep it. We believe in you!"
Ying Lili and others quickly spoke out to stop them, and their faces turned red.
"What are you thinking! It's not that kind of video! It's just some night scenes."
The art teacher took the phone back with a teasing look on his face.
"I'll excuse myself now!"
Natsukawa Masuzu did not comment on this, but fell into deep thought.
If it wasn't the two people who held the key, then is it possible that there was another key?
For example, if someone engraved it.
"Has anyone borrowed the key?"
She continued to ask, but the two shook their heads in denial.
"This is going to be tricky!"
Nibutani Morika also realized the difficulties.
"It seems that this is really a mysterious incident!"
Rikka Takanashi made the comment thoughtfully.
"Does this mean that we can only seek help from the wise man? Tuo Shou is really useless, death."
Toumori Sanae seemed to have lost all her energy and spirit at once. She was helpless and her head drooped.
……
"Looks like it's time for me to make an appearance."
Izumi Hanegawa, who had been observing the progress of the situation, was ready.
As for their inability to uncover the truth of the matter, all we can say is that it is understandable.
After all, the detection rate of theft cases is not very high when the theft is committed unintentionally, especially when there are no cameras.
The members are also unable to use superpowers and magic, so it is good that they can analyze this much.
"Ok?"
Just as he was about to show up, there were new changes in the house, so he stopped.
"I thought about it."
Natsukawa Masuyoshi woke up from his thoughts, a look of understanding flashed across his eyes, and he thought of another aspect.
After hearing the sound, everyone looked over.
"Although I don't know what method she used, as a thief, she must have had her own purpose in stealing this painting, either for money or for love..."
She smiled, exuding the confidence that she was in control.
For money?
This possibility was ruled out by Eriri at the first opportunity.
Because she knew that even if her paintings were good and had the name "Kashiwagi Eri" attached to them, they would only be worth a few hundred thousand yen. After all, she was not a famous painter.
Of course, if it was named after her real name, it might be sold for a much higher price, but that would definitely not be because of her own ability.
Speaking of feelings.
Either for hate or for love...
Is there anyone in this painting department who hates Quan?
That shouldn't be the case, after all, have they ever been bullied?
"So it's all about... love?"
As Eriri pondered this possibility in her mind, various thoughts came to her mind until a name came to her mind.
"Sagano-san, is that you?"
As she suddenly read out the name, other club members all looked towards the short girl in the corner who was easily overlooked.
The scene was silent for a moment.
"She has a watermelon-shaped head, her bangs are so thick that they cover her eyes completely, she speaks in a very soft voice, she is a silent character, and she is very timid and shy..."
This is their personal impression of Sagano.
"Well...it's me."
Sagano admitted weakly, lowered his head and answered without denying.
"why?"
Hamada asked on behalf of the others.
"Because I like Hanesegawa-san, and I like that painting..."
"From that day on, the heroic fighting image of Hanesegawa-san was forever engraved in my heart. He was like a sun hanging in my sky, emitting warm light."
"But I know that there is a way for people like me to touch the sun..."
Although Sagano's voice was low when he spoke, everyone could hear it clearly, and the sincere friendship was not fake.
It turns out to be a fangirl!
This fact caught everyone off guard, and everyone looked particularly excited.
