Chapter 67 Three Puzzles
"What are you doing here?" Maori Kogoro didn't realize the seriousness of the situation. "Go home after get off work."

Yes, I still have good brothers!
Lin Xiuyi, who was worried, grabbed Maori Kogoro.

"What did you want to tell me before? Let's go back to the house and talk in detail."

"What did you say?" Maori Kogoro was stunned. "What did I say to you before?"

"Don't be embarrassed if you keep pretending!" Lin Xiuyi dragged his friend upstairs, "We are brothers. There is nothing we can't say to each other's faces."

Seeing Lin Xiuyi and the other person go upstairs, Kisaki Eri and Fujimine Yukiko snorted at each other, then left in opposite directions.

……

The next day, Grade 1 Class A,
The homeroom teacher, Yui Murakami, walked into the classroom with dark circles under her eyes, wearing a T-shirt with a cabbage printed on the chest.

"Teacher, are you okay?" Yukiko Fujimine stood up and asked with concern.

"Haha," Mr. Murakami smiled strangely, "It's okay, I just didn't get enough rest."

"Yesterday was the weekend," Fujimine Yukiko asked in confusion, "Where did the teacher go to play?"

You bastard, don’t you know what I did yesterday?
If you hadn't insisted on competing with Lin Xiu and asked me to make puzzles and hide things, I wouldn't have to work overtime at school on the weekend!

In order to figure out the last puzzle, I didn’t go to bed until after five last night!
Mr. Murakami was so angry that his teeth itched, but he could only force a "kind" smile on his face.

"Okay, enough about that. This weekend, the teacher came up with three puzzles. Each puzzle contains a piece of paper with the words 'committee,' 'member,' and 'chairman' written on it. All three pieces of paper are in this classroom right now."

"Before school ends this afternoon, whoever gets the most notes between you and Lin Xiuyi will be the class chairman!"

After saying this, Mr. Murakami came over and placed the paper with the puzzle on the desks of Hayashi Shuichi and Fujimine Yukiko.

Lin Xiu took a quick look and stuffed the paper into the hole in the table.

Next to her, Yukiko Fujimine studied it seriously.
"Vegetables that can live for ninety-nine years."

"We'll meet again on September 9th."

"What is it that when it gets angry, even the Prime Minister has to bow down to it?"

"Fujimine-san, go to class first!" Mr. Murakami reminded, "Please save the puzzles for after class."

……

As soon as the get out of class was over, the students in Class A couldn't wait to gather around Hayashi Shuichi and Fujimine Yukiko.

"Let's see what the puzzle is."

"Lin Jun, you will definitely win!"

"Fujimine-san, we support you in becoming class monitor!"

……

Most of the supporters on Hayashi Shuichi's side are female classmates, while the opposite is true for Fujimine Yukiko's side.

Kisaki Eri originally wanted to go forward to help Lin Xiuyi, but looking at the "beautiful girls" surrounding her childhood sweetheart, she snorted in annoyance, and was too lazy to meddle in other people's business, so she simply took out her textbook and went to study by herself.

The girls who gathered around him kept chattering and trying to figure out the puzzle, which made Lin Xiuyi very confused.

He could only crumple up the puzzle paper and put it in his pocket. Then he apologized to the female classmates around him, "Sorry, everyone. Although Mr. Murakami didn't tell me, this is a competition between me and Fujimine after all, so the puzzle can only be kept secret for the time being."

After hearing what Lin Xiuyi said, the girls around him tactfully stepped back.

After they left, Lin Xiuyi breathed a sigh of relief, then stretched and dozed off on the table.

On the other side, Kogoro Mouri and other boys gathered around Yukiko Fujimine.

"How about it, Fujimine-san, have you solved the puzzle?" "It's not that easy," Fujimine Yukiko wanted to put the paper with the puzzle on the table to see what other people thought.

After hearing what Lin Xiuyi said, she didn't want to take advantage of him and put the puzzle paper away.

Seeing this, the boys had no choice but to leave.

"Hey, Shuichi," Maori Kogoro was still not giving up. He pushed his friend, "Do you already know the answer?"

"...Yeah," Lin Xiuyi responded vaguely.

"Tell me about it," Kogoro Mouri's eyes lit up.

"The answer to the first puzzle is..." Lin Xiu had just said this when someone covered his mouth.

He opened his eyes and saw that it was Kisaki Eri.

The girl was staring at Maori Kogoro: "Are you trying to find out the answer, do you want to tell Fujimine?"

"How, how is this possible!" Maori Kogoro quickly complained, "Shuiichi and I are brothers, I will never betray him!"

"You are not allowed to talk to Fujimine today!" After warning Maori Kogoro, Kisaki Eri leaned over and whispered in Lin Xiuyi's ear, "If you lose to Fujimine, we will break up!"

Lin Xiuyi was surprised and said, "...It can't be like this, right?"

"You can try it." Kisaki Eri sneered.

"But I really don't want to be the class monitor," Lin Xiuyi lay on the table, his face full of helplessness.

……

During the four classes in the morning, Lin Xiuyi was still struggling with whether to be the class monitor, while Fujimine Yukiko was frowning and pondering over riddles, and didn't even pay attention to the lessons.

It was lunchtime, and when Hayashi Hideichi was about to invite Kisaki Eri and Maori Kogoro to have lunch together, Fujimine Yukiko next to him suddenly shouted in surprise,
"I solved the third riddle!"

As she spoke, she put the chair on the table and tried to climb up.

Lin Xiuyi hurriedly stopped her.

"Hey, you're not trying to steal the answer from me, are you?" Fujimine Yukiko said with a wary look on her face.

"Stupid, look at what you're wearing?" Lin Xiuyi reminded him unhappily, "If you really climb up, all the boys in the class will have a feast for their eyes."

Only then did Fujimine Yukiko remember that she was wearing a skirt. If she climbed up high, she would be exposed!
The girl looked around the classroom, trying to find someone familiar to help, but most of the people she knew were girls.

The boys have just started school and are not familiar with each other yet.

Although Fujimine Yukiko knew that if she asked, there would be many boys willing to help, she didn't want to owe anyone a favor.

After all, favors must be repaid. What if the other party asks you out on a date?
Seeing that Fujimine Yukiko was in a dilemma, Lin Xiuyi glanced at Kisaki Eri and, while she was not paying attention, gave his friend a look.

Kogoro Mouri was about to stand up excitedly when Eri Kisaki suddenly slammed the table. He was startled and quickly sat down again.

Seeing this, Lin Xiu could only sigh and stand up.

"Xuichi!" Kiyori bit her lip and pulled her childhood sweetheart. "You...you really want to help her?"

"Don't worry, I will definitely win," Lin Xiuyi patted Kisaki Eri's hand, then bent down to take off the foot pad of his desk, and pulled out a piece of paper from the exposed gap between the table legs. There was a word "委" written on it.

"She's already guessed what's on top. Even if I don't help, someone else will help her take it down."

Seeing that Lin Xiu was serious at first, Kisaki Eri nodded.

Lin Xiuyi walked to the door and turned off the fan. After the blades stopped turning, he climbed onto the table and took out a piece of paper from behind a blade. On it was the word "long"...
