Xia Xia Xia Mujun heard this and also showed a smile.

"Is that so."

Yukimura Suzune listened to the conversation between the two, and her thoughts were actually the same as Saionji Nanase's, both feeling that this suspense and reasoning novel that had appeared out of nowhere was indeed of extremely high quality.

The logic was rigorous, and it was linked together.

The reversal design was clever, unexpected but reasonable.

The ending had a long aftertaste, making people couldn't help but think about it repeatedly after closing the book.

It was indeed a rare suspense and reasoning masterpiece in recent years, and the writing style and narrative rhythm were far beyond ordinary newcomers.

It was no wonder that this novel was so explosive on the internet now, leading to a situation where physical books were hard to find when the publisher didn't urgently reprint, and the price of second-hand books was rising.

However, compared to discussing the matter of this book.

Yukimura Suzune was now more concerned about another matter.

She pursed her lips, her slender fingers unconsciously pinching the corner of the book "Suspect X," pretending not to care, and asked in a chat-like tone, but her gaze fell on Xia Xia Xia Mujun's face.

"Xia Xia Xia Mujun... I met your sister Ruri at the train station this morning."

She paused slightly, observing his reaction.

"She said you didn't know where you went this morning, and let her go to school by herself."

"Did you... go do something?"

Xia Xia Xia Mujun thought of the experience this morning, and his expression couldn't help but be a bit subtle, he didn't hide it, and explained directly.

"Mm, Konoe Hitomi came to find me this morning, had something to do."

Yukimura Suzune's cold face showed obvious surprise.

"Miss Konoe?"

"How come... she came to find you again?"

Saionji Nanase blinked blankly, and soon reacted, holding two small fists in front of her chest, also showing strong curiosity about this question, her eyes shining brightly.

"I'm also very curious! What did Miss Konoe find you for?"

Xia Xia Xia Mujun looked at the two pairs of eyes that were equally full of inquiring gazes, and had to continue to explain.

"She took me to see Midou Orihime and had me draw a portrait for Midou Orihime."

Saionji Nanase opened her mouth slightly in surprise.

"Ah?"

She seemed to digest this information.

"President Midou... actually specifically asked you to draw a portrait for her?"

Yukimura Suzune's eyebrows hadn't relaxed since just now, and at this moment, they were furrowed even tighter.

"I remember before, didn't she already ask you to draw a painting once?"

"How come she specifically asked you this time?"

Saionji Nanase recovered from her surprise, turned to guess happily, her tone innocent.

"Could it be because you draw particularly well, President Midou is particularly satisfied, so she wants to draw again?"

Xia Xia Xia Mujun heard this and also thought about it seriously.

He wasn't boasting, after possessing the blessing of the two special equipment 'Call-out Drawing Pen' plus 'Da Vinci Notes'.

His level in painting skills had indeed reached an astonishing height, and his ability to capture and reproduce form, light, shadow, and charm was far beyond ordinary people, and might even be more powerful than many professional painters.

However, did Midou Orihime really come to find him again and again just because of this reason?

That young lady of the Midou family, whose mind was difficult to fathom and whose background was deep, would her purpose be so simple?

Xia Xia Xia Mujun had no bottom in his heart, and could only explain vaguely like this.

"Perhaps... I'm not sure either."

Yukimura Suzune looked at Xia Xia Xia Mujun's expression, which was also carrying a hint of confusion, thought about it, and felt that Saionji Nanase's guess was also possible, but the worry in her heart did not decrease.

She lifted her cold eyes, looked at Xia Xia Xia Mujun, and reminded him seriously.

"Although I don't know why they keep asking you to draw for them, you must be careful yourself."

"People from the Midou family... are not so easy to contact, so simple."

"The world they live in is completely different from ours. Getting too close, knowing too much, really easily leads to self-immolation and trouble."

Saionji Nanase also put away the natural smile on her face, rarely showing the cognition of a young lady about certain circle rules, she nodded heavily, echoed, her tone concerned.

"Yes, you must be careful yourself, Xia Xia Xia Mujun. I... I have also heard some things about the Midou family, they are not as simple as they appear on the surface."

Xia Xia Xia Mujun felt the sincere concern in the words of the two, his heart warmed slightly, and he nodded.

"Mm, thank you both for the reminder."

Saionji Nanase seemed to suddenly remember something and asked curiously.

"By the way, Xia Xia Xia Mujun, tomorrow is your sixth round of the shogi tournament, right?"

Xia Xia Xia Mujun nodded, calculating the schedule.

"Yes, tomorrow morning."

Saionji Nanase immediately clenched her small fists, made a cheering gesture, her voice full of energy.

"Please be sure to cheer up for tomorrow's game too! I will support you in spirit!"

Yukimura Suzune was silent for a long while, she knew that the subsequent games, starting from the sixth round, were basically all real professional players, or top powerhouses with professional strength.

Although analyzing from a rational perspective, she didn't feel that with Xia Xia Xia Mujun's current strength of about quasi-professional level, he could easily win against those professional powerhouses who had been immersed in the way of shogi for many years.

But for a high school student to break into the sixth round, it was already a very remarkable achievement that far exceeded ordinary people's imagination.

However, knowing these objective gaps, there was no need to say it out loud to spoil the fun at this moment.

She also lifted her eyes, looked at Xia Xia Xia Mujun, her cold voice softer than usual, and said.

"Good luck."

Xia Xia Xia Mujun looked at the two friends, showed a grateful smile, nodded, his tone carrying firmness.

"Thank you, I will."
