Of course, she was just a little envious. She also knew how Shizuka Hiratsuka evaluated her, so she didn't feel jealous.

Compared to such boring things, what attracted Yukino's attention more was the criminal who had been released into the police force, Kiichiro Numabuchi.

"What's wrong, Yukino?" Shizuka Hiratsuka lowered her head curiously, frowning at Yukino who suddenly fell silent. She followed her gaze and looked at Kiichiro Numabuchi.

"Ah, it's nothing, Sister Jing, I'm just curious about the criminal." Shaking her head slightly, Yukino hesitated for a moment but didn't say much.

"Oh, really." Shizuka Hiratsuka blinked, but she knew that it was definitely not an ordinary thing that could make Yukino care so much.

Although she had not yet decided how to tell Yukino, Shizuka Hiratsuka already knew that Yukino had the ability to contact monsters and spiritual energy, and she was also very clear about what Yukino had said to her before.

If she hadn't accidentally discovered that Xueno had innate spiritual energy in her body, Huajian Yingluo wouldn't have paid attention to Xueno intentionally, and she would have left a cherry butterfly by her side just in case.

Huajian Yingluo knew very well what dangers someone like Yukino, who was talented but unaware of it, would encounter, and Hiratsuka Shizuka was equally clear about it after receiving the explanation.

"Is there something wrong with that man?" Subconsciously following the description in the manual that Might Guy brought her, Shizuka Hiratsuka circulated the energy in her body to her eyes and once again looked at Kiichiro Numabuchi who was lying in the police car.

"Hmm?" A light exclamation came from Shizuka Hiratsuka's mouth. Under the gaze of her spiritual eyes, Shizuka Hiratsuka discovered something different.

"That aura is similar to Fatty, Yingluo and the others. No, it's not his own aura, but rather a feeling that he has been infected with?" Licking her lips, Shizuka Hiratsuka felt something was wrong.

According to what Kong Lao and Fatty told him in the tavern, Japanese monsters generally do not actively contact humans nowadays.

Even if we meet by chance, it won't leave too deep a mark as long as we don't spend too long together.

As for those who would actively contact humans, except for a few that were incomprehensible, most of them were similar to the monsters that Hiratsuka Shizuka had dealt with. In any case, they were all evil spirits.

And now, Kiichiro Numabuchi, who was lying behind the police car, had a rather strong demonic aura about him.

The fact that he could form this level of demonic energy meant that Kiichiro Numabuchi had definitely come into contact with a demon. Moreover, hadn't that demon killed him yet?

"Tsk, what a troublesome thing." Shizuka Hiratsuka scratched her hair, feeling a little annoyed.

Anyone who can survive after encountering a monster cannot be an ordinary person. This is what the fat man said.

"If you have time, you should find a way to ask."

. . .

Overall, the trip to Osaka was good for Shizuka Hiratsuka.

In addition to once again lamenting that high school detectives are all strange guys, Shizuka Hiratsuka also gained some new insights.

After contacting Fatty by phone that night, Fatty also told Shizuka Hiratsuka not to worry, and that their pub would send someone to investigate Kiichiro Numabuchi's case, and ensure that it would be handled properly without anyone knowing.

Shizuka Hiratsuka has always believed that professional matters should be left to professionals, so she temporarily put this matter aside.

After all, she herself did not have the ability to sneak into the police station and contact Kiichiro Numabuchi under layers of supervision.

"So, Xiaojing, do you want to go have a drink together~"

After sending Yukino back to the apartment, Haruno narrowed her eyes and made an invitation to Shizuka Hiratsuka.

"How about a drink? That's not a problem." After thinking for a while and seeing that there was nothing else to do, Shizuka Hiratsuka sent an email to Fujiko saying she would be back late, and she and Haruno happily found a nice restaurant.

Well, I didn’t bring Yukino with me because she’s not old enough to drink.

After ordering a few dishes she liked and drinking a few beers, Shizuka Hiratsuka gradually calmed down.

"I know, Yang No, you must still be a little curious about what my mom said!" After drinking a large glass of beer in one gulp, Shizuka Hiratsuka was silent for a moment, then gritted her teeth and spoke.

After all, this kind of thing weighs on her heart, and even Shizuka Hiratsuka, who has always had a strong mind, feels a little uncomfortable.

It was a bit embarrassing to tell my mother, but to tell Yukiko... Strictly speaking, Yukiko was not a normal person in Shizuka Hiratsuka's heart.

As for Fujiko.

Don't be ridiculous. That's the person Shizuka Hiratsuka is most wary of right now. Aren't you afraid that you'll die soon if you communicate with her in this way?

After much thought, Shizuka Hiratsuka still felt that the person she could communicate with the most was this former student of hers, but their relationship was getting better and better, and now they were as close as sisters. Yukinoshita Haruno was the most suitable person.

"Yeah, Xiaojing, do you want to say something?" Yang Nai narrowed his eyes into a beautiful arc, and his heart was a little excited.

She felt that it was the right decision to follow her intuition and invite Shizuka Hiratsuka to have a drink tonight!

"If Xiaojing feels embarrassed, I don't have to know." Looking at Hiratsuka Shizuka with gentle eyes, this was also what Yang No really thought.

Although she wanted to understand Shizuka Hiratsuka more clearly, the most important thing to Yono was Shizuka Hiratsuka's own feelings.

If her behavior really made Shizuka Hiratsuka feel embarrassed, that was something Yono didn't want to see.

"This is indeed not something worth saying openly, but I feel uncomfortable holding it in." Shizuka Hiratsuka poured herself another glass of wine and supported her face with some sorrow.

"Yeah." Without saying much, Yang No just smiled faintly, looking directly at Hiratsuka Shizuka without any anxiety, as if to say that she was the most suitable listener.

"Hu, Yang No, let me make it clear first, what I am about to say may be somewhat, somewhat shocking." Pursing her lips, Shizuka Hiratsuka felt a little guilty for a rare time.

"I treat you as my best friend. Even if you don't understand what I've said, don't act too exaggerated. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Xiaojing, I don't think you can say anything that will surprise me~" Shaking her head with amusement, Yukino took her wine glass and took a sip.

"It's not like you have a child or something~"

"...That's not the case." After sighing and looking at Yukino who was smiling at her, Shizuka Hiratsuka took another sip of wine and spoke with a desperate attitude.

"Yang No, I don't seem to like men."

"Hmm...hmm?" The smile on the corner of his mouth stiffened slightly, and Yang Nai widened his eyes in surprise.

"What? Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Looking at Yang No's dazed eyes, Hiratsuka Shizuka was like a broken jar, and was a little exasperated.

"That is to say, I seem to like women!"

"Really!!"

"Um, it seems so." Shizuka Hiratsuka was startled by Haruno who suddenly stood up by supporting herself on the table. She turned her head away awkwardly, not daring to look at Haruno's eyes that suddenly lit up.

"Hey, that's not right, Yang No, why are you so excited?"

"Ahem, no, I'm just surprised~"

"Are you still happy? As expected, you're thinking it's funny!!"

"No, hehe, no~"

"Yang No!!!"

Chapter 262:257 What did she do to you?

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, Xiaojing."

She moved her chair next to Shizuka Hiratsuka, with a flattering smile on her face, and pouted to comfort the somewhat irritated Shizuka Hiratsuka.

"You clearly said you wouldn't be surprised!" If she was angry, Shizuka Hiratsuka was actually just too shy.

However, despite feeling shy, Shizuka Hiratsuka felt a little relieved.

Shizuka Hiratsuka saw Haruno's expression. After hearing what she said, Haruno did not show any shock or subconscious disgust.

It was just a slight surprise. Shizuka Hiratsuka felt that this was the most normal reaction of a normal person when hearing what she said.

It would be strange if you weren’t surprised!

But now Shizuka Hiratsuka is not as calm as usual. She is just acting like a spoiled brat to cover up her shyness and embarrassment.

Yang Noi had some guesses about this, but she didn't care at all.

Because Yang No was so surprised by this sudden news that she couldn't contain herself.

'Are all these years of hints and hard work finally going to pay off?' Haruno thought excitedly in her heart as she comforted Hiratsuka Shizuka beside her.

"I'm not surprised anymore~ So don't be angry, Xiaojing~" With a sweet smile on her face, Yang No took some effort and finally coaxed the somewhat upset Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"Yang No, don't you really think it's weird?" After taking a sip of beer, although it was refreshing to finally say what she had been hiding in her heart, Shizuka Hiratsuka became a little worried afterwards.

"Emmm, how should I put it? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't surprised at all." Yang Noi tapped his chin, weighing what he was going to say in his mind.

"But if I think about it carefully, I feel that this is quite suitable for Xiaojing's style."

"After all, Xiaojing has never had any luck with men for all these years~" Yang Nai spread her hands pretending to be relaxed, and said with a smile what she didn't even believe at all.

You have to know that before she completely got over Hiratsuka Sachiko, Hiratsuka Shizuka had participated in a lot of blind dates over the years.

Although the Hiratsuka family is a social organization, Hiratsuka Katsuri still has a great influence in the Chiba area, and Hiratsuka Sachiko is not just an ordinary woman.

Therefore, the blind dates arranged for Shizuka Hiratsuka are all men with good family background, appearance, and background.

In order to prevent those men from taking away Shizuka Hiratsuka, Yono didn't know how many strands of hair she had lost.

Every blind date that Shizuka Hiratsuka goes on is a challenge for Haruno.

She had to find ways to disrupt Shizuka Hiratsuka's blind date without attracting other people's attention.

What makes Yang No most grateful in this regard is that Shizuka Hiratsuka herself has always been casual and indifferent towards men.

You know, there were several blind dates where even Haruno herself felt that she and Shizuka Hiratsuka were a perfect match, and she almost couldn't make the move.

But fortunately, my perseverance paid off!

The little fist hidden under the table slowly clenched, and Yang Nai tried her best to control her expression and not let herself laugh so happily.

"Besides, I don't want you to marry a man, Xiaojing!~" In the somewhat surprised eyes of Hiratsuka Shizuka, Yang No tentatively launched her first wave of attack.

"After all, after getting married, it won't be as convenient for me to ask Xiaojing out to play whenever I want like now. If that happens, I'll feel very lonely."

"You say that as if I won't care about you anymore after I get married." Shizuka Hiratsuka shook her head in amusement. She didn't expect that Haruno would have such little thoughts.

"And even if I have no interest in men, if I get together with a woman in the future, wouldn't that be no different from getting married?" Her tone was a little subtle. Thinking of her possible future experiences, Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn't help but complain a few words.

"No, girls are different~" Yang No blinked and smiled confidently.

"If I were standing by your side, Jing, I wouldn't have to worry about these things at all~"

"But how did you suddenly come to this realization, Xiaojing? It seems that you have never thought about such a thing before?" After temporarily suppressing the joy in her heart, Yang No still wanted to take advantage of the topic brought up by Hiratsuka Shizuka to talk more about Hiratsuka Shizuka's recent situation.

Because of that woman Fujiko, Haruno has been living in fear recently, and many of her plans have been forced to be shelved or adjusted.

and many more.

The image of Fujiko flashed through her mind, and a sense of unease suddenly rose in Yang No's heart.

'That woman named Fujimineko is still living at Shizuka's house, right? Could this change in Shizuka be related to her?' Her panic turned into anger. Having met her before, Haruno knew Fujiko's attitude towards Shizuka Hiratsuka very well, and compared to her own expectations, she was even more direct and greedy.

Yang Nai was furious at such a shameless act.

Well, Haruno would never admit that she was jealous of Fujiko's ability to express her feelings so passionately!

"You say that, tsk." Shizuka Hiratsuka gritted her teeth, thinking that she had already spoken and there was no need to continue hiding other things. She hesitated for a moment, then spoke in a low voice.

"Yang Nai, I'm telling you, but you absolutely must not tell anyone else."

"Well, don't worry, Xiaojing, I will listen to you~" Her eyes changed slightly, Yang Noi suppressed the panic in her heart, and looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka with a smile.

"Fuji... You know Mineko." Scratching her hair, Shizuka Hiratsuka endured the shame in her heart and spoke somewhat awkwardly.

"I accidentally discovered before that she seemed to like me."

The smile on her face was a little stiff, and Yang Nai's heart skipped a beat when she heard the word "Fengzi".

"Mineko...Miss?"

"Well, I've been able to confirm that that kind of liking isn't the kind of liking between friends, but... that kind of liking!" Shizuka Hiratsuka explained vaguely, hesitating about her choice of words. She believed that Haruno could understand what she meant.

"At first I was a little panicked, but then she didn't seem to know I knew, so I pretended not to know. Gradually, I felt that I didn't hate this feeling as much as I originally thought. Plus, I've never had any feelings for men, so I wondered if I liked women."

"Xiao Jing... Did Miss Mineko do something to you that made you realize something was wrong?" Yang No's voice was a little hollow and vague, but the embarrassed Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't notice it.

"Well, he kissed me once again while I was pretending to be drunk."

"Kiss, it's the mouth."

"..Um."

"...That's really well done, Ms. Mineko! (gritting her teeth)"

Chapter 263: Xiaojing, you can’t do weird things.

Yang No didn't know how to describe her current mood.

Should it be anger?
