Chapter 4 Fujimine Yukiko
Teitan High School, A Class of First Grade.
After two classes, the once-unfamiliar students gradually became acquainted.
"Hey, aren't there thirty-two people in our class? How come only twenty-nine showed up?"
"Three people didn't come, tsk tsk, how bold, daring to skip class on the first day. They must be those kind of delinquent students."
"No way, aren't all the students who can get into Teitan good at studying?"
...
During the break, most students were discussing the three classmates who dared to skip class on the first day.
There were also a few girls sitting in a corner, discussing which club to join after school.
"Yukiko, are you really going to the Drama Club?"
"Yes."
The girl with long, brown, curly hair, azure blue eyes, and delicate features nodded affirmatively.
"After graduating from high school, I want to be an actress. Joining the Drama Club now will help me practice my acting skills."
"You're so beautiful, you'll definitely become a star," the girl next to her said enviously, "I'm having a headache, I don't even know what I want to do in the future."
Just then, a student sitting by the window shouted,
"Hey, look quickly, there's a police car parked at the school gate!"
"Three students wearing Teitan High School uniforms got out!"
The other students in the classroom heard this and curiously crowded to the window.
"They must be those three students who skipped class, right?"
"Why would a police car bring them to school? Did they commit a crime?"
"Idiot, if they committed a crime, the police should send them to prison, not Teitan!"
Fujimine Yukiko also came to the window, curiously observing the three classmates standing at the school gate.
One was a well-behaved girl wearing glasses, one was a delinquent with a pompadour and bloodstains on his clothes, and another was a handsome guy with a lazy expression.
"The Dean of Students and Murakami Teacher have gone over," a student said, gloating, "The three of them are finished!"
...
Teitan High School gate.
As soon as the Dean of Students walked in front of Lin Xiuyi and the other two, he sternly began to scold them loudly,
"Today is the first day of high school, and you three idiots dared to skip class! You've completely disgraced Teitan!"
"Dean, let's hear what this officer has to say first," Class A teacher Murakami Yui reminded him softly.
"Officer, what exactly did these three do? Please tell us everything," the Dean of Students had already decided that Lin Xiuyi and the other two had done something illegal, "If you police find them difficult to handle, we at Teitan will certainly punish them severely."
"Well, teachers, you've misunderstood!"
The one who drove Lin Xiuyi and the others to Teitan was naturally the rookie police officer Inspector Megure. He helped the three explain,
"This morning, the three of them discovered a body on their way to school, so they stayed to report it and cooperate with our investigation. After that, this student, Lin Xiuyi, also assisted the police in catching the murderer. It should be us police thanking them."
"Is, is that so?"
The Dean of Students looked awkward, clearly not expecting the truth behind the three skipping class to be like this.
"We helped the police investigate a case, that shouldn't be disgracing Teitan, right?" Kogoro Mouri said, dissatisfied, "And they still want to punish us..."
These two sentences made the Dean of Students' face instantly turn green and then red.
"Alright, the third class is about to start," Murakami Teacher helped the Dean of Students out, "You three, hurry to the classroom for class."
"Yes."
Lin Xiuyi and the other two nodded and walked towards the teaching building.
The Dean of Students looked at their backs and snorted, too embarrassed to stay at the school gate, and directly turned and returned to his office.
Seeing that the Dean of Students said nothing and just left, Murakami Teacher could only helplessly apologize to Inspector Megure on his behalf,
"Officer, I apologize, our school's Dean of Students is in a bad mood today."
...
"Strange, why did the Dean of Students leave with such a dark face?"
The students of A Class of First Grade were still gathered by the window, watching the commotion.
"Hey, they're coming this way towards the classroom!"
Seeing Lin Xiuyi and the other two walk into the teaching building, many students in Class A looked towards the door.
A moment later, Kogoro Mouri, still with bloodstains on his clothes, stumbled into the classroom first.
"Uh..."
Seeing all the classmates in the classroom staring at him, Kogoro immediately became nervous.
"This, that..."
"Strange, weren't there three people? Where are the other two?"
All the students in Class A were curiously staring at the front door of the classroom, but no one noticed the back door quietly opening, and Lin Xiuyi and Eri Kisaki quietly walked in.
Most of the seats in the classroom were already occupied, leaving only one empty seat in the second-to-last row and two in the last row.
"Is this seat taken?"
Lin Xiuyi came to the empty seat in the last row and asked the beautiful female classmate with brown curly hair next to him.
"Ah?"
Fujimine Yukiko, who was also looking at the front door, was startled and subconsciously nodded.
Lin Xiuyi placed his schoolbag on the desk and sat directly next to Fujimine Yukiko.
Seeing this, Eri Kisaki also put down her schoolbag and sat to Lin Xiuyi's right.
Kogoro Mouri, who was still awkwardly standing at the front of the classroom, only then noticed Lin Xiuyi and Eri Kisaki sitting down.
He ignored everyone else and walked angrily towards the back of the classroom, finally sitting in the empty seat in front of Lin Xiuyi.
"Shuichi, Eri, you two guys snuck off again..."
"Didn't you insist on being the first to enter the classroom?" Lin Xiuyi said irritably.
"But you shouldn't have snuck in by yourselves," Kogoro Mouri said, dissatisfied, "Even if it's embarrassing, the three of us should face it together."
"Don't be silly," Eri Kisaki rolled her eyes at Kogoro, "Shuichi and I don't have a thick skin like yours."
...
The bickering between the three of them made the brown-haired curly-haired girl next to them unable to help but laugh.
Seeing Lin Xiuyi and the other two look over, the girl held back her laughter and introduced herself: "Hello, I'm Fujimine Yukiko."
Yukiko? The future mother of the God of Death?
No wonder I thought her hairstyle looked familiar before...
Lin Xiuyi was in a daze, and Yukiko felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, about to get angry.
Eri Kisaki, sitting on the other side, had already raised her arm and pushed Lin Xiuyi hard.
"What are you looking at? So engrossed?"
"...I remembered someone I knew before," Lin Xiuyi explained.
Tsk, remembering someone he knew before, who are you trying to fool?
Eri Kisaki rolled her eyes at Lin Xiuyi.
The three of them had been playing together since kindergarten, and they knew each other extremely well.
Eri Kisaki couldn't recall them ever knowing a girl who looked like Fujimine Yukiko.
Just then, the class teacher Murakami Yui walked into the classroom.
"Our class is finally complete. The three newly arrived students, please introduce yourselves to everyone."
As soon as Murakami Teacher finished speaking, Kogoro Mouri excitedly stood up.
Perhaps feeling that his previous performance was a bit embarrassing, he deliberately raised his voice when introducing himself: "My name is Kogoro Mouri, I like judo, and my future dream is to become a detective!"
