Why are there only loser heroines around me?

"See you in Yana."

"Here!" She raised her hand and saluted with full energy.

"Anything happen tomorrow?"

“There’s a class reunion, actually.”

"What time?"

"night."

"Then we'll go to the villa this morning and resolve the matter before your party starts. You can arrange a time with your colleague from the Nishio Paranormal Agency, and we'll arrive together tomorrow. Warn him that if he dares to sneak out and investigate prematurely to steal the commission, he will disappear from the paranormal world the next day."

Volume 73: Chapter : No Eating in the Toilet

Yanami sent the specific time to the other party.

The other party replied with a capital "OK" and agreed to meet at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.

After the people from the club left one after another, Yanaijian stretched and said, "Ajing, I'm really concerned about tomorrow's party, so I made an appointment at the beauty salon and plan to do some skin care before going. Can we finish before four o'clock?"

You Jing frowned slightly. "Don't test the boss's bottom line with such a nickname. If the investigation doesn't produce any results and you still ask for leave, I will decide how much to deduct from your salary at the end of this month based on my mood at the time."

Yanai was scared. She cared more about her salary than the class reunion. "I'll cancel the appointment right now!"

Ukyo noticed that Yanami had just mentioned the class reunion.

"Did you just say junior high school reunion or high school reunion?"

"Um... there are middle school students and elementary school students." Yanami waved his hand and said, "Actually, it's just a meal with a few classmates I'm familiar with from the past. Although Kusuke will be there too, I want to make it clear that my going to the class reunion has nothing to do with Kusuke."

Ukyo was startled. Yanai seemed like someone who would get lustful every once in a while. How destructive was Bai Yueguang? It could make her toss and turn, unable to forget it.

He didn't believe what Yanaijian said at all, just like he never believed what his junior said, that the literature club dinner had nothing to do with Chen Wenwen. Was he kidding?

However, it is also good for the demon slayer to have a thought in his mind. When swinging the sword, he should think about the person he wants to protect, then the wound will not hurt and the blade will not deviate.

But if the person you miss is someone else's boyfriend, that would be too bad.

Even if your thought is about a non-existent two-dimensional character, Ukyo will understand and respect that.

Ukyo was thinking about how to completely erase someone he once loved from another's heart.

If you want to cut off the white moonlight of the literature club in your junior brother's heart, you have to put a red-haired little witch in his heart.

But the red-haired little witch was already taken. Ukyo had to find a way to make Yanami feel like she had someone else in her heart who was worth protecting. But what kind of world was this? Just finding a man without bad habits was difficult enough, not to mention that the ideal moonlight in a girl's heart usually had eyes that turned up slightly when she smiled, and words that were gentle like pouring moonlight. Even better, a touch of coolness and clarity was even better. The more unique the temperament, the easier it was to be addicted.

Is it possible to find such a person in Toyohashi City?

Thinking about it later, Youjing smiled silently in his heart. Instead of looking for such a person, he might as well try harder with words.

Yanami wasn't very good at counterattacks, so scolding her was effective. After the attack, Yanami cried and thought about life more often than she talked back.

"Have you forgotten how you cried downstairs at the Sanjiao Building and said you wouldn't save this relationship?"

"Haha~" Yanajian laughed and said, "Ukyo definitely doesn't have a friend he's known for 12 years, right? If 12 years can be easily erased, then I can really relax a lot. But I'm not trying to save the relationship this time... Boss, I'm actually someone who occasionally gets tired of maintaining relationships."

"When Hua Lian comes close to me with a smile on her face, I often think to myself, if only I had the courage to punch her... She stole my boyfriend, yet she's still pretending to be nothing and coming close to me."

"Wait a minute." Ukyo needed to correct something.

"Yanaimi, she didn't steal your boyfriend. You gave him away yourself."

"!"

Yana's face turned red with anger.

But she couldn't refute the facts.

Japanese interpersonal relationships are very strange. If you decline the class reunion this time, they will not invite you to the next gathering, especially if you are not very important to the group.

Yanaijian said with a smile: "Not everyone can be like Ukyo~, you can casually turn down the invitation to Fang Huyuan, because she will ask you next time. You can also refuse the dinner hosted by Maori brother, because you are his important "brother", and he can't do without you."

"But..."

"I was there when Maori and I fought against the Lansters. We also fought together against Hanba, but he didn't invite me to his dinner party~"

She said, "So Yanami must go to her class reunion. If she's absent, people might not invite her next time."

There are signs in the toilets of Japanese schools saying "No eating in the toilet" because many students are excluded by "small groups" and inexplicably become friendless. If they care about how others look at them, they will quietly go to the toilet to eat alone.

Ukyo could almost understand what Yanami was saying. He had turned down his first high school reunion, and since then, no one invited him to any other group gatherings. The only girls who left messages for him were the girls in his class who had a crush on him. Yanami was pretty good-looking, so even if she turned him down once, there was a good chance that a boy who had a crush on her would message her next time and ask if she wanted to go to the party. But going to a party like that was pointless; it was hard to get a word in when everyone else was talking.

The kind of "glue-type group" like the one in "Hot Girl", where friends will not exclude each other even if they miss several parties, is very rare in reality.

Many teenagers worry that they will be expelled from their group if they miss a party. Ukyo doesn't think Yanami is one of those people. She's not worried about her "clique," but something else...

She lay down on the velvet sofa, her azure hair scattered, and covered her eyes with her arms.

She suddenly turned over, grabbed the lychees on the table, began to peel them a little frantically, and then stuffed the flesh into her mouth.

He bought that for Xiaoju, but she forgot to take it when she left.

Ukyo was silent.

It turns out that Yanami can also counterattack, but her counterattack is not aimed at others, but at herself.

Ukyo silently stood up and went to the vending machine to buy her two bags of potato chips.

The dormitory social office was filled with the sound of people chewing potato chips.

Ukyo hadn't known a friend for twelve years, so some relationships were difficult for him to understand. He'd spent the first half of his life "socially isolated." Thinking back, the loneliness of high school was like a late spring chill, piercing deep into his heart. Only in college, when he huddled with the other little dragons for warmth, did he find some warmth. A monster like him, infected with the Blood Sorrow, was truly different from a girl like Yanami, imbued with youthful energy.

"It doesn't matter." Ukyo said suddenly.

"what?"

"I mean, it's okay not to maintain that kind of social circle. I won't not invite you next time just because you missed an important party."

Ukyo said, "I see you're quite happy eating lunch in the clubhouse every day. Are you worried that I'll kick you out one day, leaving you to go to the bathroom alone... or eat lunch alone in the deserted staircase behind the teaching building?"

Yanai was startled and said, "No."

"So, the guys who make you worry about this kind of thing are not even your drinking buddies."

Ukyo stood up and said, "Appreciate what you have, and don't dwell on what you can't have."

.........

.....

The next morning, 7:48

"Ukyo, what do you think I should wear to outshine Karen at the class reunion?"

Ukyo said, "I thought we had a fight yesterday. You might be in a bad mood this year and won't talk to me."

"Hahaha~, how can that conversation be considered an argument?" Yanaijian grinned, putting his hands behind his back. "...I was wondering why you were so quiet today. Turns out it's because of what happened yesterday. Sigh~, then I'll have to speak up myself to break the atmosphere."

She spoke with a high-pitched sing-song voice and spun on one leg on the suburban cobblestone path. Ukyo didn't know why she was so happy today.

The two of them were walking on a suburban road with a not very clear path. Yanami followed behind him, but Ukyo stretched out his hand to push away the illusory mist in front of him. He felt that something was wrong around him. Why did morning fog suddenly appear in such dry weather? Before going out, he deliberately checked the air humidity today, which was fluctuating around 30%.

It’s not that there will be no fog in the air because the air humidity is low. It’s just that the old lady’s villa is only 1.6 kilometers away from his three-story mansion. When he went out in the morning, the sun was in the sky, but fog suddenly appeared after he walked more than meters. Isn’t this very strange?

"Wear the watch my mother gave you, the sapphire pendant Yuan gave you, and add Prada's avant-garde shirt and Balmain's short skirt. These two brands are very mature and fashionable, and can help you get rid of the restless childishness of adolescence. If you want to grab everyone's attention the moment you break into the party hall, then I recommend you wear Versace. The design style of this brand is bolder than the two I just mentioned." Ukyo suddenly answered the first question Yanami asked him today.

Yanai seemed to be lost in thought and shook his head to indicate that he had never heard of any of the brands.

Ukyo was surprised that after she had 300 million yuan, she had never browsed luxury brands from other countries on the Internet. This did not fit Ukyo's stereotype of women who became rich overnight. It seemed that Yanami was really a good girl. He felt that he could give her the remaining % of the bounty.

But Ukyo was still very curious——

"Where did you spend all your money?"

Yanami subconsciously began to list to Ukyo what he did after getting the money...

"I gave half of it to Mom and Dad, then went to a nearby mall and bought some clothes. Oh, I don't know what the big brands are. I've looked at them at the counters, and they don't seem to match my usual style. I like the spring and autumn styles of those big brands... but as for the summer styles~, I still prefer my old clothes."

"As for the rest... I went to eat at Matsusaka beef near my house. I've always wanted to eat it, but the prices always put me off."

"...I ate the biggest bowl of curry udon at the place next to JR Toyohashi Station!"

"We also took a bus to Aichi Prefecture to eat Toyokawa Inari sushi. I sent a message that day saying I would bring some back for you to try, but you didn't reply, so I ate it by myself on the bus on the way back."

"There's also that restaurant called the 'Medieval Castle'. I went there for afternoon tea. The restaurant's name starts with P. I forgot what it was called. A playboy like you, Ukyo, must know it, right?"

Yanami was probably referring to PincoPicon in Toyohashi City. Ukyo wasn't sure how to translate a shop name that sounded a bit like an English nickname. When he first passed by, he thought it was a photo studio, but later he realized it was a cafe. Yanami obviously didn't understand either, because it was actually a castle restaurant.

Youjing doesn't like going there because it's too far from his home and motorcycles are not allowed to be parked at the door.

While chatting, the two had already waded through the fog and arrived at the commissioned location.

Youjing looked at the three-story villa in front of him. The villa was beautifully built with a Mediterranean-style blue exterior wall. If it weren't for the mist blocking it, the lighting here should be quite good.

The villa is surrounded by a man-made canal and rockery in the courtyard, creating a feng shui layout with both mountains and water. Many wealthy families in Japan also pay attention to feng shui, and before building a house, they often invite a renowned local Yin-Yang master to read the wind and water.

It was exactly eight o'clock when the two stopped in front of the villa.

Ukyo said, "Has the colleague from Nishio Office not arrived yet?"

Yanaijian took out his phone and said, "I'll urge him."

After waiting for two minutes, the other party did not reply, so Yanaijian had to call, but no one answered.

People in their line of work can't afford to oversleep so early in the morning.

Yanaijian put down his phone and looked at Ukyo with some fear... "Boss, I warned them yesterday, but they seemed..."

It is very common for colleagues to steal business in any industry. For private detectives, whoever solves the case first is considered awesome. If they encounter someone who doesn't keep his word, they can only blame themselves for their bad luck. Youjing plans to teach them a lesson so that they won't suffer this loss in silence.

But the employer has not closed the case yet, which proves that the other law firm in Nishio has not yet successfully solved the case, so they still have time.

Ukyo stood still, looking at Yanami, then shifting his gaze to the doorframe. His employer had said the key was left on the doorframe.

"You go."

"I?"

"There's a lot of dust on the door frame. Do you want the boss to do it himself?"

"Hmph!" Yanami breathed out through her nostrils. She felt that she had been doing this action frequently recently. She wondered if the assistants of other famous detectives in history also had to do all the dirty work like her.

.....

Youjing had a very sensitive nose, and he smelled a bloody smell as soon as the door was opened.

"Call Maori, it's time for him to go to work." Ukyo said.

After discovering the body, the normal procedure had to be followed. After Yanami's call came through, Ukyo put on white gloves and walked into the house. He guessed that Yanami would not make such preparations, so he prepared two pairs in advance. Unexpectedly, Yanami took out a pair of cotton gloves exactly the same as Ukyo's from the pocket of her skirt as if to show off.

Yanami said seriously, "I'm a licensed detective who passed the detective exam, okay? How could I make such a small mistake?"

Youjing suddenly felt that the child he was taking care of had grown up, and a feeling of coldness swept through his mind, as if he was going out on the street without wearing thermal underwear in such cold weather.

...

Volume 74: Chapter Just Chose a Ferrari

The two searched the scene separately, and Ukyo found the two dead bodies in the master bedroom.

One died in bed, the other died against the wall.

The man lying on the bed was emaciated, his skin covering his bones, like a patient suffering from long-term malnutrition. But strangely, his hair was very shiny, and his eyes, which were wide open before his death, were still bright and vivid, not at all like a malnourished patient.

The most crucial point is that this person was also wearing cotton gloves that criminal police often wear when investigating crime scenes.

Ukyo took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket. He couldn't unlock the password, but he could see the incoming call notification. The first few digits of the number matched Yanami's cell phone number. If nothing unexpected happened, this was the colleague who had set them up, Detective Nishio.

He and his assistant died together in the master bedroom of the villa.

Nishio shouldn't be so thin. Paranormal detective work is a physical endeavor. It doesn't necessarily require exceptional martial arts skills, but the prerequisite is that you must know how to fight. Even if he wasn't a strong adult, he definitely wouldn't be this emaciated. It looked as if something had drained all his energy... This death reminded him of fox spirits from Japan or back home.

Essence and Qi are the essence of life. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, this refers to the essence and blood, primarily sperm in men and eggs in women, while Qi and blood refer to the body's breath and blood. Nishio's death certainly aligns with this.

As for his assistant——

There was a hole in his chest, blood was flowing all over the floor, the hole was empty, his heart had been taken away, venous blood and arterial blood were pouring out of the hole together, forming a broken fan shape.

In many Chinese ghost stories, there is a legend that fox spirits need to eat human hearts to maintain their appearance.

Everything at the scene seemed consistent with a fox demon committing the crime.

The Guhuo Bird silently appeared behind him. Youjing asked, "Is there any demonic presence around here?"
