Chapter 33: My sister is in danger, come back quickly!
On the other side, at the Komaba campus of the University of Tokyo.
Unlike Mine Shiori who left school early, Sawayama Haruno went to the classroom for the next class after finishing her meal.
There were even fewer students in this class. He sat alone in the back row, with his classmates sitting a long distance away from him.
Perhaps it seemed strange to sit alone on an island country, and many people secretly glanced at Sawayama Haruno out of the corner of their eyes. Fortunately, he did not care about other people's "sympathetic" eyes. After sitting down, he took out his mobile phone and did his own thing.
The first thing to do is naturally to ask Miyazawa Mana about Mine Shiori.
Sawayama Haruno thought about it for a moment, then immediately edited a text message through the LINE interface and sent it.
[Kiriyama: Mana, do you know Mine Shiori? She said she is a member of the same club as you.]
After sending the text message, Zeshan Haruno slid the screen upwards again and easily saw the news from last night, including the black stockings photo that caused the disaster.
His expression suddenly became tense.
I should delete the photo first. I have already saved it in the hidden album. If I keep it here, I will always be reminded of the ambiguous behavior between me and the other person's sister last night.
That warm feeling still lingers in my mind, and just recalling it makes my scalp tingle.
Not to mention the pleasure brought by immorality.
Sawayama Haruno sighed slightly and tapped the screen a few times to delete the picture from the message history.
Not long after doing all this, Miyazawa Mana's reply appeared below.
[Mana: I know, she is my friend, we have known each other for a long time]
"Have you known each other before?"
Sawayama Haruno was slightly startled.
So, the two of them didn't know each other after joining the club?
Before he could think it through, Miyazawa Mana quickly gave a new explanation.
[Mana: Actually, she was my former classmate at a private school. We happened to be in the same class, but we didn’t talk much at the time. After I was admitted to the University of Tokyo, I found out that she was also here, and then I invited her to join the club I was in at the time.]
[Mana: What's wrong? Why are you suddenly asking me if I know her? I remember she seems to be in the same class as you, right? ]
[Kiriyama: The person who had dinner with me yesterday was Mine Shiori]
【Mana: Ehh】
[Mana: So that’s how it is. I’ll explain this to Shiori later.]
"Private school, I see"
Seeing this, Sawayama Haruno suddenly realized.
If it was a private school, then everything would be explained.
He once took tutoring classes with Miyazawa Mana at an educational institution called "Morishima Private School".
It is a very powerful education group in Tokyo. Most of the students who graduated from it were admitted to the key universities in the island country. Many of my senior classmates have studied in this private school.
Due to its fame, the "Morishima Private School" naturally has a lot of students, with more than 400 students at the same time. It is normal that I can't remember Mine Shiori at that time.
What's more, he was so absorbed in his studies that he barely even looked for Mana Miyazawa, who was also taking tutoring classes at the private school, let alone meeting other girls. "So, the 'vague memory' probably refers to my time at the private school, right?"
Sawayama Haruno stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "But why doesn't Shiori want to say it?"
The task given by the system had too many doubts, making him feel at a loss as to where to start.
Fortunately, I am not completely without direction. At least I have obtained the information that I had contact with Mine Shiori before. Next, I just need to figure out what happened in the private school, and I should be able to complete this system task.
Sawayama Haruno thought for a moment, opened the memo function in his mobile phone, and then wrote down the clues he had so far.
Now he already knows that he, Miyazawa Mana, and Mine Shiori all graduated from the same private school.
And Mine Shiori still seemed to care about the fact that Mana was her ex, so much so that she asked herself this morning when they broke up. After learning the exact time, she showed an ugly expression again.
Put all these clues together.
"Could it be that the reason why I broke up with Mana is actually related to Mine Shiori?"
Sawayama Haruno frowned slightly.
No, it doesn't feel like it.
In the past, Shiori Mine was not familiar with Mana Miyazawa, and the turning point in their relationship was after college. This can be proved by Maki's "lie" yesterday. The most favorable evidence is that Shiori Mine failed to notice the other party's abnormality.
But if Shiori Mine was not the "trigger" for her breakup, then why would she deliberately lie and hide the fact that they once knew each other?
The pieced-together clues seemed to make the truth even more confusing and confusing, making people feel extremely overwhelmed.
Things seemed to have come to a standstill. If the "fuzzy memory" was related to the "ignored truth", no matter whether I asked Miyazawa Mana or Mine Shiori, I would not be able to reach a conclusion.
Isn't this a dead end?
"Calm down, Haruno."
Sawayama Haruno rubbed his brows, feeling an indescribable tiredness in his heart.
He laughed at himself in his heart. It was clearly a normal story of a young couple breaking up, but why did it turn into a large-scale brain-burning suspense drama after awakening this broken system?
If I had known this earlier, I would not have agreed to break up so quickly. At least I would have asked clearly.
Now no matter who I ask, he refuses to tell the truth, which is really a headache.
Miyazawa Mana used some ambiguous answers to evade all the questions; Mine Shiori put on a sullen face and refused to reveal the whole story.
These actions of the two made it impossible for him to force the questioning.
If it was Maki Miyazawa, I would only need to give her two hand knives on the forehead, or tempt her with some money, and maybe I could get the "answer" easily.
Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but sigh in his heart for a while, but the next moment, the screen of his mobile phone lit up again, which made him slightly startled.
It was Kazuki Takashima calling.
"Hello, Mr. Takashima?"
Sawayama Haruno picked up the call immediately, lowering his body slightly and trying his best to conceal his actions.
There's no way. He's still in class. He can secretly play with his phone and chat with others, but he can't openly call others when the teacher is teaching.
Fortunately, Takashima Kazuki on the other side seemed to know his current situation and only gave a very brief sentence that surprised Sawayama Haruno.
——My cousin is in danger, come back quickly!
