Chapter 558: Each Harboring Ulterior Motives! Accident!

~4 min read 610 words

The security guard patted Natsume Chikage on the shoulder hard, and thanked him solemnly again:

"Thank you very much! If it weren't for you, I might never have figured out the elevator problem."

"And I wouldn't have known the real reason why 'Xiao Hei' was afraid."

Natsume Chikage shook his head, his tone flat:

"Just discovered it by coincidence."

"Since you already know the truth, please report it to the school and apply for repairs as soon as possible. Lest someone accidentally falls and has another electric shock accident in the future."

The security guard nodded solemnly and promised:

"Will do!"

After seeing the security guard off.

Classmate Classmate Tengyuan Kui immediately giggled, with a bit of pride on her face:

"We are really amazing, we solved another 'Seven Wonders'!"

Yukimura Suzune glanced at her speechlessly:

"Weren't you trembling with fear the whole time? How did it become 'we are really amazing'?"

Classmate Classmate Tengyuan Kui raised her chin unconvinced:

"The way I held Natsume-kun when I was scared is somewhat similar to the situation of that couple at the time... So, from a certain angle, I also provided Natsume-kun with... reference... so he could... solve it."

Speaking to the end, her own voice became smaller and smaller, and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Natsume Chikage felt that this statement was a bit subtle, but after thinking about it, he swallowed the complaint that reached his mouth.

Sister Xiyuan Si Xiyuanji Qilai gently clasped her hands happily:

"Anyway, we can record this event in detail in the Collection Club's literary publication again!"

Natsume Chikage nodded in agreement:

"Yes."

Yukimura Suzune looked at Natsume Chikage, still having a trace of unwillingness in her heart, feeling that this time it was just her bad luck that she couldn't discover the key clues first.

She secretly made up her mind that she must be faster than him next time she solves other "wonder" events.

She coughed twice, looked away and said:

"Since the matter has been solved, let's go back and organize the materials given by the physics teacher and prepare to write the literary publication."

Sister Xiyuan Si Xiyuanji Qilai nodded with a smile:

"Mm-hmm! But about the old school building, including the elevator and those locked classrooms, I also want to collect some photos and supplementary materials, so our literary publication will be more complete and convincing."

Classmate Classmate Tengyuan Kui's face turned red again, and her voice was a little stuttering:

"Then, doesn't that mean you intend to go up and find if there are those... 'evidence'?"

Sister Xiyuan Si Xiyuanji Qilai hadn't thought about that aspect, and was reminded by Classmate Classmate Tengyuan Kui, and her face instantly dyed with a faint blush.

Natsume Chikage coughed twice and took the initiative to say:

"I'll go take photos of the old school building here, you go to the library to check the historical materials of the old school building."

Sister Xiyuan Si Xiyuanji Qilai nodded shyly:

"Mm-hmm."

"Then later, let's gather in the Collection Club activity room."

Konoe Tooru looked at the time on her phone and said calmly:

"Since the puzzle has been solved, I should go too. Everyone, see you next time."

The three girls from the Collection Club and Natsume Chikage said goodbye to Konoe Tooru one after another.

"Goodbye, Senior Konoe."

"Tooru, goodbye."

"Remember to come to the Collection Club to play next time!"

"Goodbye."

Konoe Tooru nodded slightly, then turned and left, her figure quickly disappearing at the end of the corridor.

Looking at the direction she left, Natsume Chikage still felt a bit confused, always feeling that Konoe Tooru's thoughts were hard to grasp.
