MTL - When I Bind the Plot Maintenance System-Chapter 42
"Sorry, I didn't hear it clearly, can you say it again?"
"...We caught the killers of your parents."
"…"
"…"
Both ends of the phone fell into an awkward silence, Hagihara Kenji didn't know how to speak, and Zhu Fu Jingguang was unable to convert because of his brain downtime.
If I remember correctly, they just separated for one night, right? For Kenji Hagihara, after skipping one night, his friend said he was going to suspend school.
For Zhu Fu Jingguang, after skipping one night, the real murderer who has troubled him for more than ten years was caught...?
and many more? Something is not right! It's like bending down to pick up a pen in math class, and when you look up, the blackboard changes from 1+1 to quantum mechanics!
Even Hagihara Kenji couldn't hold on to this embarrassment, he said, "Because it's a bit late today, the police should notify you tomorrow during the day... I remember you have a brother, right? So it should be notified first. your brother..."
"Although you can get news from the police...that is, if you want to know Jingguang in advance, or are curious about the details, are you coming to Kongliang's house tonight?"
Zhu Fukongliang looked at him: "Go to my house?"
Hagihara Kenji didn't cover his phone, but asked, "Can't you?"
"...I want to go home and sleep." Zhu Fukongliang replied.
It's too much trouble to explain, Zhu Fukongliang can also tell that if they go to his house tonight, they will definitely stay there, then he can't go home (referring to another world).
But when he heard Zhu Fukong Ryo's words, Matsuda Jinpei and Hagihara Kenji both showed terrifying smiles, Matsuda Jinpei immediately said: "I will go to Zhu-I mean Raki's house tonight!"
They hadn't slept all night, and they were finally woken up to catch up. How could it be possible for Zhu Fu Kongliang to have a peaceful sleep? ! impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Hagihara Kenji agreed with both hands: "In short, let's gather at Xiaokong Ryo's house!"
Then, Hagihara Kenji hung up the phone.
Zhu Fu Jingguang: "..."
Zhu Fu Jingguang called back again.
Hagihara Kenji: "What's wrong, Jingguang? If you have any questions, let's meet and talk."
Zhu Fu Jingguang: "...Did you forget something?"
Hagihara Kenji: "Huh?"
Zhu Fu Jingguang took a deep breath and once again doubted whether the other side was playing with him: "The address of Kong Liang's house?"
Hagihara Kenji: "..."
Hagihara Kenji: "Ahaha, sorry, I'll send it to you!"
The house arranged by the system for Zhu Fukongliang was not large, and it was more than enough for Zhu Fukongliang to live alone, but it seemed a bit crowded when five high school students of the same age were crowded into it all at once.
Both Zhufu Jingguang and Jianggu Ling had eaten dinner, but the other three had not eaten anything because they had been in the police station all afternoon.
Even because they were too sleepy in the morning, they skipped breakfast, and for Zhu Fukongliang, they skipped lunch again—but they didn’t realize they were hungry until they left the police station. .
Therefore, after Zhufu Jingguang and Jianggu pressed the doorbell of Zhufukongliang's house with zero suspicion, and the room was opened, the aroma of food could be smelled at the entrance, which seemed to be a normal thing.
Hagihara Kenji, who opened the door, still had yellow mustard sauce on his lips: "Ah, you are here?"
"Have you had dinner? Xiao Kongliang treats guests!" When they entered the living room, they found that the table in the living room was full of food.
Some are desserts, but also pizza and fried chicken burgers, but there is no main meal.
Matsuda Jinpei even ate his collar full of debris, and his face—in Hagihara Kenji's words, was a waste of this handsome face.
Matsuda Jinping raised his head: "Oh, you are here."
After he finished speaking, he continued to bite into the hamburger.
Zhu Fukongliang is better here, eating more quietly, but also the corners of his mouth are stained with ketchup that he didn't even notice.
Zhufu Jingguang and Jianggu Ling fell into silence.
So these three naive guys caught the murderer? Why doesn't it look like it?
Hagihara Kenji coughed lightly: "It's mainly because we've been hungry for a day... They don't usually look like this!"
Falling Valley Zero: "...before you say this, wipe the yellow mustard off your face."
Hagihara Kenji immediately picked up a tissue and wiped his face, then as if nothing happened just now, and repeated, "They don't usually look like this!"
Matsuda Jinping sneered: "That's what you care about image."
"These two people are not the little girls who like you, do you have to?"
Hagihara Kenji was silent, Hagihara Kenji was persuaded, he immediately rushed to the low table: "That's my favorite fried chicken! Leave it for me!"
Matsuda Jin flattened the fried chicken in his hand with a smirk on his face, then took a bite and said vaguely, "It's mine!"
Hagihara Kenji wailed suddenly, rushed up and shook Matsuda Jinhei's shoulders with both hands: "You spit it out for me—! It's agreed that each person has two pairs!"
Matsuda Jinping was a little choked, but he still insisted on puffing out his cheeks and said, "No one has agreed with you, first come first served!"
Zhu Fukongliang was biting the fries and commented: "Childish."
The atmosphere between the three was too natural, and Zhu Fu Jingguang and Jianggu Ling even felt that their existence was a bit redundant.
But looking at this scene, Zhu Fu Jingguang's chaotic thoughts and emotions along the way relaxed a little.
The subject they were about to talk about was too serious, but in the aroma and confusion of the food in the living room, it was not so serious.
Hagihara Kenji still took the initiative to undertake the obligation to explain, the details of which will not be mentioned for the time being, but the name Ariri did arouse a little memory of Zhu Fu Jingguang.
"...There is a girl named Youri."
These are all things he didn't take the initiative to mention with others, so Hagihara Kenji's explanation added another layer of authenticity.
When he heard that Wai Shouyi had followed him for so many years, Zhu Fu Jingguang had hair on his back, shivered, and even had goosebumps.
In this regard, Matsuda Jinping commented: "Forget about Zhufu and Jingguang. After all, he has his own mind, but you can't do it in Jianggu! After so many years, I haven't noticed anything wrong!"
Zhu Fukongliang nodded on the side: "Zero, the valley is so useless."
Drop to zero: "…"
The blue veins in front of the valley's forehead are about to pop out.
Hagihara Kenji smiled and said, "Would you two change? Xiao Zhenping is not used to calling Jingguang, Xiaokong Ryo, why did you change from zero to Yugu?"
Zhu Fu Kongliang, who is used to calling Ling Ge, said: "I am not familiar enough to call my name, but it is more convenient to call Ling than Jianggu."
"But Kenji is more convenient to call than Hagihara, isn't our relationship good enough to call names?" Hagihara Kenji showed a pitiful expression.
Zhu Fu Kongliang thought for a while: "But I also called Xiao Zhenping Matsuda."
"Is it necessary to care about such trivial matters?" Matsuda Jinping complained: "I remember that I called you Hagi and you also complained about it?"
"Because I called you by first name, but both of you called me by last name—so unfamiliar! It's not like a tame dye at all!"
"This person is so troublesome." Such an expression appeared on Matsuda Jinping's face.
Zhu Fukongliang said to this: "You said it directly, Xiao Zhenping."
"You two did it on purpose—?!" Hagihara Kenji shouted.
After they made such a joke, Zhu Fu Jingguang explained to his young tame ran: "The prisoner is too cunning."
"My daily routine with Zero is pretty simple, and it's easy to find patterns. As long as we find a long-term job by our side, it's impossible for us to notice the problem."
"To put it simply, the two of you are too insensitive." Matsuda Jinping said: "Although Raki is usually quite slow, but today when he was followed, he immediately noticed something was wrong."
"Well, you can't." Zhu Fukongliang repeated on the side.
The smile on Zhu Fu Jingguang's face froze.
Zhu Fu Jingguang thought for a while, and said the question that should have been asked in the first sentence before entering the door.
"I'm a little curious about something." The cat-eye boy said gently and softly: "That is, how did you know the situation in my home?"
"If I remember correctly, I should have only mentioned that my parents died, not that they were killed...right?"
Jianggu Ling also said: "Also, you called me last night and said that Kong Liang was not in the right mood. What's going on?"
Zhu Fu Kongliang did not expect such a thing to happen, and also looked at Hagihara Kenji and Matsuda Jinping: "Huh?"
Matsuda Jinhei and Hagihara Kenji: "..."
I always felt that no matter how I explained it, it seemed strange.
Hagihara Kenji immediately picked up the cola: "Ah, this cola is really delicious! Come on, too!"
"Yeah, there's still so much to say, you should eat more, don't waste it!" Matsuda Jinping also said.
At this time, Zhu Fukongliang's landline rang, which in a sense saved the two teenagers.
Zhu Fukongliang wiped the oil stains in his hands and walked to the corridor to answer the phone.
The room also became quieter unconsciously. Hagihara Kenji consciously observed the smile on Zhu Fu Jingguang's face, and silently moved in the direction away from Zhu Fu Jingguang.
I always feel that this kind of smiling guy is quite scary.
Matsuda Jinping said to this: Are you really not talking about yourself?
Hagihara Kenji: I am cheerful, lively and handsome! There is no scheming, okay? At least Xiao Zhenping, you are never afraid of me!
Matsuda Jinhei: That's true.
Then Matsuda Jinping complained: "Zhu, Jingguang, this guy said you have a scheming."
Hagihara Kenji: "???"
Hagihara Kenji: "—Matsuda?!"
Zhu Fu Jingguang was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face widened even more.
However, the mountain of swords on this side has not ended, and the sea of fire on the other side has also come. After hanging up the phone, Zhu Fu Kongliang said to the two friends in the room: "Hagihara, didn't you tell your family that you want to stay at my house? "
Hagihara Kenji suddenly said, "What?"
Zhu Fukongliang replied: "Your sister said that you can't get through on the phone, and asked you to wait tomorrow."
Hagihara Kenji: "..."
Hagihara Kenji: "..."
Hagihara Kenji: "So what do you mean by those sympathetic eyes! Take it back from me!"
