Ah, xdm, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival. I was thinking about updating today even without telling the group, but I have to go out for dinner tonight, so I don’t have that much time. Let’s see tomorrow.
Volume 98: Chapter : The Underwear Was Stolen
"Ahaha... I'm so sleepy."
Time passed quickly and it was the third day of the exam. It was slightly different from the previous two days. Today Wu Yi arrived at the camp almost on time.
Theoretically, according to his concept of time, this situation should not have happened, but the battle situation last night was really tense.
First, he stayed at the beach with Kushida Kikyo until almost ten o'clock. After returning to the cruise ship, he was questioned by Sakayanagi Arisu and forced to hand in his homework. Finally, he kept making a fuss until almost one in the morning before going to bed.
The loss of physical strength is not a big deal. The most important thing is the reduction in sleep time, which is the real flaw.
However, when Wu Yi arrived at the camp, the expected roll call did not begin.
Instead, the entire Class B, both male and female, split into two opposing factions for some unknown reason. They stared at each other in a stalemate, and the entire base was filled with a tense atmosphere.
The class teacher, Chabashi Sae, stood aside with one hand supporting his forehead, looking like he had a headache.
"Hey, hey, hey, what the hell are you doing? Why do you look like you're going to start a fight on the spot?" Wu Yi clicked his tongue and strode into the camp.
The eyes of both sides gathered together almost at the same moment.
"Student Wu Yi, you came just in time! Something big has happened!"
Before anyone else could speak, Satsuki Shinohara from the girls' group took the initiative.
Something big?
Wu Yi was still wondering how serious the matter was when he heard the other party continue.
"I'm telling you, Hui's underwear was stolen!"
"……what?"
After being stunned for about half a second, Wu Yi slowly typed a question mark.
What the hell? My underwear was stolen?
"Yes, Karuizawa woke up this morning and found that one pair of underwear was missing from his bag, and now he's crying in the tent." Kushida Kikyo also stood up and said.
"Oh……"
After hearing this, Wu Yi almost understood the whole story. To put it bluntly, someone secretly took Hui's underwear in the middle of the night last night.
But it is not impossible. After all, the indoor space in the camp is limited. There are not many tents and it is barely enough. In addition, it has not rained in the past two days, so everyone's travel packages are left outside.
This means that no matter who finds an excuse to get up at night and reaches out when leaving the tent, they can easily get things from someone else's bag.
"So where are things going now?" Wu Yi turned to Yukinoshita Haruno, who was the leader among the girls.
Although he was basically the only one carrying the team these past two days, all the affairs in the camp, big and small, were handled by the latter. It would be much more convenient to ask him directly about some things.
"Now..."
“Hey! Even after something like this happened, at least as Kei’s…boyfriend, you’re not angry at all!”
Yukinoshita Haruno was about to speak when Shinohara Satsuki interrupted her directly. She was indignant and barely used the word "surface" in "surface boyfriend" to describe him.
"Angry? Is being angry useful?"
Wu Yi glanced at her with caring eyes.
"If yelling and screaming in anger would work, then Sudou would have solved the problem long ago."
"what??"
Sudo Ken, who was confused in the crowd, inexplicably felt as if he had been kicked.
"That's what I said..."
Shinohara's momentum suddenly weakened.
Yukinoshita Haruno took the opportunity to take over the topic.
"We have already searched the surrounding woods and haven't found it at all. So if it is still in the camp, the only possible place is..."
——It’s the boys’ side.
She was very reserved and didn't finish her words, but everyone understood what she wanted to express.
The boys were immediately unhappy about this.
"Hey, if you can't find it yourself, just say that we boys stole it. Do you have evidence?"
"That's right, maybe Karuizawa lost it by accident!"
There are all kinds of chatter about everything.
Admittedly, from the perspective of most boys, what the girls said is somewhat slanderous. But if we put ourselves in their shoes, based on universal rationality, the most likely culprit in this situation is indeed among the boys in the class.
It couldn't be that a boy from another class stole it. He didn't sleep well in the middle of the night, and groped his way through the dark mountain roads to run to another class's camp just to steal a pair of girls' underwear. What kind of psychopath is he?
"So my suggestion is to let Wu Yi check the packages of all the boys in our class, what do you think?" Yukinoshita Haruno proposed a solution.
"This one……"
"It's not unacceptable?"
The boys looked at each other. If it was a girl who was to examine them, they might not agree, but since they were all boys, it didn't matter.
As for boys, except for some special cases, their interests and hobbies are usually not that different, they are nothing more than guns, cars, balls...all kinds of balls.
Those who understand will understand, so even if a Fei X cup is found in someone's bag, they won't be too surprised.
"But what's the point?"
Wu Yi asked back suddenly.
"Just imagine if a lingerie thief got up in the middle of the night to steal a girl's underwear and... used it. Would he hide the stolen goods in his bag? Not to mention whether the deoxyribose on it would get on other clothes in the bag, once such behavior is discovered, it is almost foreseeable that he will be asked to search the bag and body."
"At least in my opinion, they should bury it in a corner around the camp that is not easy to find. Maybe they will take it away on the last day, or maybe they will bury it on this island forever."
"But this method has a fatal disadvantage, which is that it is very time-consuming, especially in the dark of the night. No matter how... fast the other party is, he still needs to find a place to confirm the burial after he is done, and then return to the river to wash his hands. He can only return to the tent after completing all this."
"Also, you have to know that there is more than one person living in the tent in the camp. There are other classmates there. Besides, I believe that everyone must have not slept very comfortably in the past two days on such a ground."
"So...please tell me, which people were out of which tents last night?"
After completing the well-reasoned analysis, Wu Yi's gaze swept across the entire room with a strong sense of oppression. Wherever he went, the boys subconsciously looked away.
After a while, Yosuke Hirata raised his hand in the crowd.
"If I remember correctly, classmate Chi seemed to have gone out in our tent yesterday."
"Oh, yes! And I remember Chi was out for quite a while!"
Although he had a grudge against Wu Yi, in order to clear himself of suspicion more quickly, Yamauchi sold out his brother without saying a word.
After being pointed out by two people in a row, Chi Kuanzhi panicked instantly.
"No! I really just went to the bathroom! And because I didn't bring a flashlight and it was dark outside, it took quite a while!"
"Chi..."
Wu Yi turned her eyes away, smiled and waved.
"come over."
"I……"
"come over."
Chi Kuanzhi wanted to struggle, but at Wu Yi's repeated request, he compared the physical difference between the two sides, and then decisively gave up the treatment. He hung his head and was forced to obey.
However, Wu Yi would not let him get away with it so easily. He simply clamped Chi Kuanzhi's face from both sides with his hands together, forcibly lifting it up so that they were staring at each other.
"What are they...doing?" One of the girls asked quietly, "Is this the Ghost Rider trial?"
Because the scene was too quiet, even the whispering sounds could still be heard by the boys.
"No, I think this is a common interrogation method used by the CIA."
Sotomura Hideo, who is known as the "doctor" among the boys, pushed up his glasses and said.
"This is a technology that uses subtle changes in human body temperature to check if the target is lying. Rena Mizunashi used it in Conan."
"Uh... Conan?"
Upon hearing this, the people around immediately showed an expression of "nmd, are you suffering from a chuunibyou?"
At the same time, Wu Yi, who was pinching both sides of Chi Kuanzhi's cheeks with his hands, also began to ask questions.
"Let me ask you, what did you do when you got up last night?"
"I……"
Ike Kanji's gaze subconsciously shifted to the upper left.
"I got up and went to the bathroom. It was pitch dark and I couldn't see anything, so I just estimated the general direction and found a corner to pee. As a result, I accidentally splashed some on my feet. When I came back, I almost couldn't find the tent."
"that's it?"
"that's it."
Ike Kanji said firmly.
Wu Yi continued to maintain the posture and only let go after a while.
"Well, I believe you are telling the truth."
"Well, I told you it wasn't me."
Hearing that he had been ruled out as a suspect, Chi Kanzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Sakura Airi on the girl's side slowly raised her hand, looking cautiously like a slightly timid little squirrel.
"Well...actually there was another person who also went out at midnight yesterday."
"Who?"
Sakura Airi pointed at Ibuki Mio who was looking away not far away as if it had nothing to do with her.
"she."
Volume 99: Chapter Eat my leg!
"You mean... Ibuki-san?"
Following the direction Sakura Airi pointed, everyone's eyes fell on the girl from Class D who was not far away and looked as if she had nothing to do with it.
"Yes……"
Taking a deep breath, the girl with red twin ponytails seemed to muster up all her courage. Without looking at anyone else, she cast a focused and serious gaze towards Wu Yi.
"Because the ground is very hard, I haven't slept very well these past few nights, so I clearly heard Ibuki, who was sleeping next to me, get up last night."
"But Ibuki-san is also a girl, why does she have to do such a thing?" A girl with a slower mind asked puzzledly, "Could it be that Ibuki-san is..."
"Ying?"
Chi Kuanzhi added with a rude tone.
"What the hell..."
Wu Yi wanted to punch him twice: "It's because she is from Class D!"
"But wasn't Ibuki kicked out of Class D?" Shinohara was still confused.
"Well, your IQ is second to none."
Wu Yi kept shaking his head.
"Forget it, let's just watch and learn."
Having said that, he turned and walked towards Ibuki Mio.
Soon, the girl with short blue hair, who had been sitting by the tree roots pretending to look around, noticed someone coming up to her. She could no longer play dumb and raised her head with a slight sneer.
"Why, since you can't find the underwear thief, you're suspecting me, a member of another class?"
"Doubt?" Wu Yi tilted his head. "I think you may have misunderstood something. It's not doubt, but complete certainty."
"Really? Then let me listen to your nonsense." Ibuki Mio continued to act like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
"Then I'm going to start."
Wu Yi clapped his hands and coughed lightly.
