~4 min read 686 words

The officer stopped to answer:

"Oyamada Gengmu fainted!"

"Ah? Why?"

"I don't know, I heard them say... he self-destructed!"

Huh?

Mouri Ran looked bewildered.

"Can I go now?"

Hoshino Ki looked up indifferently at the officer opposite him.

"Ye... yes, you can!"

The young officer had been recording the course of the case in his notebook.

He looked up after hearing Hoshino Ki's cold voice.

Now that the suspect had fainted.

The police station had no reason to keep the victim and witnesses any longer.

Plus, Hoshino Ki's actions were in self-defense.

So this case would not have any impact on him.

Hoshino Ki stood up and walked out of the room.

He ran into Mouri Ran, who was on the phone, in the hallway.

"Let's go!"

"Huh?"

Mouri Ran held the phone.

Her eyes turned into dots.

"Then Oyamada, he..."

Mouri Ran pointed to the phone.

Suzuki Sonoko's voice came from the phone.

"Hey hey! Ran, what are you saying..."

Hoshino Ki didn't say another word.

He walked straight ahead.

"Hey? Wait, Hoshino-kun!"

Mouri Ran hurriedly said into the phone's receiver:

"Sonoko! I'll call you back later!"

"Mom, Hoshino-kun is fine here, let's go!"

Mouri Ran hung up the phone and put it in her bag.

Then she ran into the room to call Fei Yingli.

After the three of them signed the papers, they left the police station.

It was already near evening outside.

The trees on both sides of the street were gently swaying in the breeze.

The branches were laden with cherry blossoms.

Every time a pedestrian passed by, one or two lovely petals would fall.

Some landed on their heads.

Some landed on their shoulders.

The three of them walked along the romantic cherry blossom street like this.

"It's a good thing Hoshino-kun's strength isn't low, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."

Mouri Ran put her hands behind her back.

She tilted her head to look at Hoshino Ki.

"Hoshino-kun knows karate?"

Fei Yingli, who was on the side, asked in surprise.

"Yeah! He's self-taught!"

"..."

Fei Yingli's gaze was cast toward Hoshino Ki once again.

After looking him over repeatedly, she couldn't tell that Hoshino Ki, who had such a lean build, actually knew karate.

From the outside, she would have thought he was just a quiet boy who only knew how to study.

"And! Hoshino-kun's grades are also very good, he ranked first in the whole school in the last test!"

Seeing her daughter's high evaluation of him, Fei Yingli.

Couldn't help but feel a strong curiosity about Hoshino Ki.

"Do you like him?"

Fei Yingli pulled her daughter in front of her.

She lowered her voice and asked.

"Ah!? No!"

Mouri Ran suddenly exclaimed.

She raised her volume by several degrees!

"I didn't expect the rumors to be true..."

Fei Yingli had a teasing expression.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at her daughter.

"What!? Mom, who did you hear that from!?"

"Everyone says so! Even on your school's forum!"

Fei Yingli suddenly took out her phone and waved it left and right in front of Mouri Ran.

"Let me see!"

Mouri Ran snatched the phone from Fei Yingli's hand.

She held the phone with both hands and clicked frantically on the screen.

"What is this!!!"

Mouri Ran exclaimed loudly.

"???"

Hoshino Ki turned his head to look in Mouri Ran's direction.

He walked to Mouri Ran's side.

"Ya! Hoshino-kun! Don't look!"

"??"

Hoshino Ki frowned.

"It's your school's forum! There's even some kind of ranking list on it..."

Fei Yingli looked at Hoshino Ki.

The playfulness in her eyes was fully revealed.

"Mom!"

Mouri Ran lunged forward to cover Fei Yingli's mouth.

But it was too late.

Hoshino Ki had already taken out his own phone and opened the school forum.

On the most prominent position of the forum's main page.

Was a "poster" of Hoshino Ki and Mouri Ran!

This photo was taken secretly when they were eating on the rooftop with Suzuki Sonoko last time.

It's just that Suzuki Sonoko was the only one missing from the photo.

In the photo. ===== CHAPTER 309 =====
