No one suspected that Eri had a fever, and since she didn't cough, sneeze, or have a stuffy nose, the matter remained hidden in the country, and probably no one else knew about it except for the two of them.
Eri Kisaki was in a good mood today. Although she was sick, she realized some things and said some things. She also found loopholes in the case she was handling. Most importantly, she took a very significant step today.
Eri had already returned the coat to Shiraha. The group was having dinner when Eri breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm really grateful to you, Shiraha. If it weren't for you, I would still be thinking about how to apply for compensation and get the other party to plead guilty."
Caitlin paused for a moment, then said, "Honey, what did you say? You helped Attorney Fei solve the case?"
"No, it was just a comment. Eri realized it herself. So, did you discover anything?"
Eri nodded, put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth and said, "I just reviewed my interpersonal relationships again and found something amiss, but I overlooked it because the alibis and the times were different. Now it seems it's not that simple."
Caitlin and Vi immediately got excited, as this was the first case they had heard about since arriving in this world. Eri didn't hold back either, but she didn't reveal the core details or personal information.
After listening, Wei suddenly realized and said, "That's right. If someone really wanted to commit a revenge killing, they would never choose a small car to cause a car accident. It would either be a big truck, or it would cause multiple injuries immediately after the crash, and the uncertainty is too high."
Caitlin nodded and said, "Yes, but I really didn't expect that. It was completely overlooked, honey! How did you find out?"
"Hmm? I just find it strange because the charges include attempted murder and intentional assault, so I find it quite odd. Moreover, the success rate of such a crime is not as high as disguising oneself in a busy city and stabbing someone with a knife, or poisoning someone. At least there is a high probability of actually killing them."
Everyone nodded, but Fujimine Yukiko tilted her head and said somewhat strangely, "Wait... Shiraha, what did you call Eri just now?"
Everyone paused for a couple of seconds, then looked at Bai Yu with strange expressions. Just as Bai Yu was about to speak, he heard Eri Kisaki casually say, "We are good friends."
"Bai Yu told you to just call me by my name. If you call me Lawyer Fei, then we've known each other for a long time. It would be too formal to use my surname, so just call me by my name. It will also make me sound younger."
Everyone nodded without suspicion, since Leonora and Yukiko were both like that. Eri continued, "So, I changed my address to Shiraha as well. Is that strange?"
Fujimine Yukiko glanced at Kisaki Eri, who was also looking at Fujimine Yukiko. In that instant, Fujimine Yukiko clearly saw a faint hint of amusement in Kisaki Eri's eyes.
"Indeed, there's no problem. Eri still seems to have the same competitive spirit as when she defeated the Queen of Teitan."
"Of course, after all, you're in the same year as me, and I don't want to really get old."
"I have no worries."
"You're just heartless. I've been thinking about this since high school. You forget everything the next day after a good night's sleep. Nothing can make you nervous or frustrated. It's ridiculous."
"That's because of a good mindset! A good mindset keeps you young! Who doesn't like being young?"
Eri rolled her eyes and didn't bother to continue the conversation with Yukiko Fujimine. Lucifer and the others chuckled a few times; the bickering between these two best friends was surprisingly childish.
Ran and Sonoko didn't react much, as if they were already used to it. Sonoko clicked her tongue and said, "Same as always, but... it's getting dark. God help us! Let's see the aurora today!"
Lucifer said irritably, "God? You'd better pray to the devil instead."
"Whatever it is! I hope we see the aurora today!"
Lucifer and the others didn't spoil the fun. They were really looking forward to seeing the aurora. This summer had already been a great success. They had everything they could want. To be honest, not seeing the aurora was still a success, but it wouldn't be as good as having a better ending.
"Speaking of which, the national tournament has been going on for a while now, and I'm really curious to see what kind of results these kids will achieve."

"Honey, who do you think is more skilled, Seishi or Kunimitsu?"
Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Kunimitsu, Seiichi might not be able to beat Kunimitsu in terms of skill, but it doesn't matter, because they are still in the development stage."
Sōryūin Shion clicked her tongue and said, "These kids nowadays are all frighteningly talented. I wonder how Haimeng is doing with her preparations. Filming is supposed to start this month, right?"
An nodded and said, "That's right. Hai Meng is performing very well so far and is not nervous at all. The final result should be very good. There is another important thing."
"Hmm?"
"To put it simply... after Hai Meng finishes this photoshoot, there's a high probability that she'll be on the cover of this magazine, but I haven't told her yet."
Kasugano Sora sighed and said, "Isn't this great? Hai Meng is very outgoing. If she knows she's on the cover, she might buy several copies and even send one to her father. After all, she's achieved something."
Lantabi shook his head and said, "No, no, no, there is an extra bonus for being on the cover. WGO has always rewarded whoever gets the cover. It's easy to understand, right? Because they will definitely choose the best one, and the best one should get a reward."
"Oh!" xn
Yumiko chuckled and said, "If that's the case, Haimeng will probably be so scared that she can't sleep if a sum of money suddenly appears in her account."
"Pfft..." xn
"Not a lot, but not a small amount either. If the first issue does well, Hai Meng will get a reward. It's getting dark! It's getting dark!"
"It's true! It's already dark without us even noticing! Hurry up and eat! After we finish, let's head to the beach!"
"Okay!" xn
Bai Yu smiled and said nothing as he looked at the crowd who had suddenly become so enthusiastic. He then turned to Eri and whispered, "Eri, wear more clothes later."
"okay, I get it."

Chapter 773 Zdrada's Education, the Discovery of the Masses (Please Subscribe~)
Lucifer and the others finished their dinner incredibly quickly, completely abandoning any semblance of a goddess image. After finishing their meal, they touched up their makeup, put on their coats, and headed straight to the beach.
The beach was eerily dark at this moment because of the black sand. Not far away were surging waves, and the sand underfoot was black. The sky was gradually getting darker.
The occasional breeze carried the scent of the sea, and also brought the slight coolness of summer unique to the Arctic. For Kasugano Sora and the others, this was no longer just a slight coolness, but rather quite a chill.
Lux, supporting her back, looked up at the sky and tilted her head, saying, "Where's the aurora?"
"How could it be so early? I told you there was no need to rush, but we're already here. Running back and forth is a waste of time. Let's just wait here. Judging by the time, it's a little past nine o'clock in the evening now, so we still have at least an hour and a half to go."
Kraki covered her face and said, "Darling! You should have said so earlier! It's been over an hour! It's pitch black and cold here!"
"So there's no need to rush. But if you feel cold, you can go back to the hotel first and come back later. If there's an aurora, I'll send you a message. Don't push yourself too hard, it's not worth catching a cold."
Upon hearing this, Kasugano Sora and a few others immediately pulled Orange and the other girls back. The hotel was about a ten- or twenty-minute walk away, not too far.
Most of those who ran back were young girls like Kasugano Sora, or rather delicate ones; while Riven and others seemed to find it quite refreshing.
Harley Quinn wrapped herself in her long trench coat, put her hands in her pockets, and said with some emotion, "To be honest, I never realized before how insignificant humans are in the face of nature. It's pitch black now, and although I can still see things, I clearly feel my own insignificance."
"Honey, have you been here before?"
"I have been here before, but it was winter and I came alone. I saw the aurora then, and I remember taking pictures. You should have seen the purple one before."
Yukari Yakumo scratched her head, then suddenly clapped her hands and said, "Oh! I remember! That photo album from our date, I think I saw a picture of the sky, but I didn't notice it at the time!"
Kaguya Houraisan clicked her tongue and said, "You really wasted your opportunity. Now think about it, didn't you lose out in a lot of things on that date?"
"I regret it too, but there were special circumstances back then. Besides! Kaguya, don't you regret the proposal you received before?!"
Kaguya Houraisan's eye twitched; she was terribly regretting it. Yuuka Kazami, on the other hand, didn't say anything, just looked up at the sky. Zdarada leaned over, hooked his arm around Yuuka Kazami's neck, and said with a smile, "What's wrong, feeling down?"
Kazami Yuuka glanced at Zdrada. If it were anyone else, even a woman, she would have killed them immediately. But since they were her own sisters, Kazami Yuuka said helplessly, "In the entire Gensokyo, it seems like I have the most regrets."
"What's the big deal? Time is endless. A few minor regrets can be topics to talk about with the children in the future. As long as you made the right decision, isn't that enough?"
Kazami Yuuka nodded without saying anything. Zdarada glanced at Kazami Yuuka and suddenly seemed to remember something, saying with some confusion, "I've wanted to ask you something for a while now."
"Ok?"
Why do I feel like you smell like you have two different scents?
Kazami Yuuka paused for a moment before casually saying, "I am the Queen of the Four Seasons Flowers. I naturally possess the fragrance of flowers, and my own garden is full of flowers. Over time, I have acquired this fragrance myself. Another one is a perfume that my husband chose for me, which I really like."
"But you, who smokes every day, don't smell of smoke at all and even have a pleasant aroma, which is quite amazing."
Zdelada casually said, "How could I possibly let the smell of smoke linger on me? It would be so embarrassing. Besides, my room has plenty of air fresheners, fragrances, scented candles, and aromatherapy. I also use perfume. I only smoke to pass the time."
Just then, Yuuko Ichihara and Lucifer joined them. Lucifer said with a smile, "Zdrada, if your daughter smokes in the future, then you..."
Before Lucifer could finish speaking, Zdrada calmly said, "I can't bring myself to say I'd break her legs, nor can I bring myself to do it, but if this girl dares to smoke, I'll make her kneel on a washboard every day."
“Uh…”xn
"You're the kind of guy who gets high on cigarettes yourself..."
"I'll say it again, I just find it boring. If my husband told me to stop smoking, I would just throw it away. But I know very well that smoking is not a good habit, and I don't want this brat to go astray. It's good to be a good girl. Just like my stupid sister wouldn't let her daughter drink vodka like that."
Marina rubbed her hair and said without curiosity, "Who are you calling stupid! But I definitely won't let that girl learn these bad habits. Wine tasting is fine, but drinking like this is another matter. And what kind of looks are those! Tsunade! Would you let your daughter play dice?!"
"Um... they didn't say anything about it... But, it won't be long now, I'll be going back soon. After that, it'll be the Autumn Selection, I wonder what kind of guests will come. But those five people I saw earlier were really a headache."
"I really hope Michael can come sooner. After all, if we can resolve the most intense conflict in the family sooner, things will be more peaceful sooner, and we can focus more on the wedding the year after next."
Nami nodded and said, "That makes sense. Hey, if my husband and I are going back, do you need me to find some information for you, Hancock?"
"Eh? Aren't you and your husband coming to see me?"
"Please, this is a two-person world. If I were to find someone else, it would be a betrayal of myself. If you were in my shoes, would you go looking for someone else? 0.7"
"Sigh...it really is true. But it's true, if you and your husband come, you have magic and can go to many places. It would be good for you to find some information for me and make preparations in advance. However, I have a feeling that something is going to happen to this sea."
"At worst, you can have Lucy and the others wipe out all those Celestial Dragons. Then the Navy won't have a superior, and maybe there won't be so much trouble."
"We'll talk about it later... I don't want to hear about these guys, they're disgusting."
"Okay, okay, it's a bit chilly... Hey? Have you guys noticed that Attorney Fei and her husband seem to have gotten a lot closer lately?"
"Indeed!"

Chapter 774 Eri Kisaki's Honesty: Things Nobody Knows (Please Subscribe~)
Lucifer and the others chatted in small groups, while in a corner unnoticed by anyone, Eri Kisaki, bundled up tightly, stared blankly in one direction.
"Eri, I think we should have a talk."
Eri Kisaki snapped out of her daze and looked at Yukiko Fujimine, who was also wearing a trench coat and had somehow gotten close to her. After a moment of silence, she walked away without saying a word in a deserted direction.
Yukiko Fujimine followed silently, since waiting was pointless and it was normal to wander around. The two were best friends, and Lucifer and the others weren't curious about anything.
After walking for a while and confirming that they were some distance apart, Eri Kisaki said softly as she walked, "I told him."
Fujimine Yukiko paused for a moment, then said in disbelief, "What?! Eri! You really told him everything?"
"Is there any need to fool you about this? I told him, but I only told him one sentence."
"What?" 01 "I've never been married."
Yukiko Fujimine paused for a moment, hesitated for a second, and then said softly, "It seems you're starting to think about your life. Well... you've had it easy."
"Who has it easy... Ran still doesn't know the real reason why Mori didn't become a detective, does he? It's not easy for anyone..."
"You like Bai Yu?"
Eri nodded and then shook her head. Yukiko Fujimine said somewhat strangely, "Weren't you already planning to prepare for your own life? I've never seen you put so much effort into a man before."
"Ok?"
"Yeah, you're usually not very talkative with others, and your strong personality means you don't ask for help from others. But you've done all that now. Plus, you had that commemorative perfume you were planning to keep as a keepsake, which you hadn't used before. Why did you start using it as soon as Sonoko and the others came?"
"Don't tell me it's because of etiquette. You have three bottles of perfume. There's absolutely no need to use the one you're planning to collect. A woman dresses up for the man she loves. At the very least, you have feelings for him, right?"
Eri Kisaki sighed and said, "Yes, I admit I have a lot of feelings for him, but..."
"You haven't figured out what to do next, have you?"
"Yes, I have a lot of feelings for him, I'm very sure of that. But after I confirmed it today, I told him. But I don't know how to tell Xiaolan or him after that."
Yukiko Fujimine sighed and said, "Seriously, Chris is so infatuated with him, and you like him too. All I know is that he's rich, good-looking, has good character, and is a good cook. What else? Tell me, how did you, the Queen, fall for him?"
Eri Kisaki breathed a sigh of relief and said, "To be honest, I also find it strange. I haven't had much contact with Shirayu, but every time I've had contact with him, I feel that I'm very impressed."
"When I first heard Xiaolan talk about him, I was very curious. Someone so young shouldn't have much money. If he had money, he wouldn't have chosen to open a restaurant, since it's so tiring."
"However, I was surprised that not only was he very well-off, but he also had such a unique way of opening his shop. It was right next to the busiest street, and there was only one shop on the whole street, without even streetlights."
"Is that really true..."
"Yes, the neighborhood is brightly lit and bustling with people, while this place is pitch black and unusually quiet, especially at night. When the neighborhood gets lively, you can hear some laughter and chatter on this street, but it's inexplicably reassuring. Even people who are afraid of the dark don't feel scared, it's like magic."
"Chris also said that I'm planning to give it a try, and then what?"
Eri Kisaki breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's what I thought at the time. When I actually met him, I was shocked. He was younger, more handsome, more considerate and gentle than I imagined. His cooking was also exceptionally delicious."
"I can only say that I felt like I had struck gold. I knew I would have a place to eat from now on, and his fiancées were all so successful that Xiaolan could feel at ease being with them."
"To be honest, that was my initial impression. I just had a good feeling about him, but not the kind of good feeling I have now. Oh, I almost forgot, I was also very surprised when I found out that he was a fighter or that White Butler. I couldn't believe that he could be so successful at his age."
"and then?"
Eri sighed and said, "And then? Then it's just our usual interactions. Occasionally I'll send a message to Shiraha asking how to make a certain dish. When I'm resting, I like to check his updates. Once I start, I can't help but keep looking. I can look for a whole day at a time. It's not the first or second time."
"I really never dared to imagine that someone could be so successful and so free at such a young age. He seems different from everyone else. He lives so clearly, so freely, and so fulfillingly. I never thought I could live like this."
