I've already accumulated 53 days, 30 minutes, and 47 seconds. I haven't seen Qi Mu classmate since the day we parted ways after school.

I vaguely remember the sky that day,

It was so bright and beautiful — no,

I forgot the dark clouds that floated over Saiki classmate's head when we parted ways that day.

It was as if everything had been foreshadowed.

Saiki classmate's face didn't seem to have the usual joy that day.

His expression was all.

Even if it was only one of his eyes and one of his head.

The disappointment that flashed across his face when the wind blew through his hair seemed to be a foreshadowing of such a long separation.

At that time, I was too naive to know that a lot of things can change in an instant.

Since that day, I haven't seen Saiki classmate — — not only that, I haven't even seen his sister.

Since I went to Saiki's house to pay a New Year's visit and met Xing, Xing would always ask me to go shopping with her.

She was really cute.

She was also very polite — — just like Saiki classmate.

The best part was that Saiki classmate would also come with us.

Although Xing explained that she forced her brother to come,

I actually understood what Saiki classmate meant — — he was still a little shy as before.

But those sweet and innocent dates have become memories, and it's heartbreaking to think about it now.

I passed by his house on my usual evening run,

But I didn't feel his familiar breath — — and Xing didn't open the window to greet me as usual.

I didn't take this as a sign at the time.

I was just a little disappointed at that time.

The first night Saiki classmate wasn't here — —

I just remember that the fragrance of the flowers didn't seem as soft and sweet as before.

The second night Saiki classmate wasn't here — —

"Are Xing and Saiki not here today?

Last time, Xing asked me how to make cookies.

I baked a batch of cookies.

As a demonstration.

It was also Saiki classmate's birthday gift yesterday. "

Saiki's mother seemed a little embarrassed.

"Well,

She and her brother went on a trip to England. "

"Trip … Thank you, auntie.

The cookies are still here, please try my cooking.

Auntie, I'll go back first. "

I obviously felt a little lonely in my heart. Saiki didn't tell me about that at all, but I still left with a perfect smile.

But when I looked up at Saiki's classmate's window, he appeared.

His blond hair was dazzling under the light. He looked down at me, his eyes filled with mockery.

I just lifted my chin and smiled.

He definitely knows what's going on, but he won't give me any hints right now.

On the fourth night of Saiki -san's absence …

Today, Saiki's mother was out. I had just run to the door of Saiki's house when he appeared again. He was wearing a trench coat with a high collar. He lowered his face, and the shadow on his face looked very sinister.

He was just about to go out.

He glanced at me coldly and left without saying a word.

Although I didn't know him well, I knew that in some ways, he was on the same level as my brother. When it was just the two of us alone, he would never give up the opportunity to praise Saiki classmate.

He was just as abnormal as he was a few days ago, starting from the day Saiki classmate was not here.

Things were definitely not as simple as I thought.

On the tenth night of Saiki classmate's absence …

I recorded and analyzed the places that Qi Mu often visited, such as the café. I had been regularly checking these routes over the past few days, but I didn't discover anything out of the ordinary. According to my informant's reliable information, the places that Qi Mu often visited in the past perfectly formed a circle with a diameter of about fifteen kilometers.

"Commander, did you find the missing pink-haired classmate you were looking for?" A few passers-by I just met were reporting to me.

I lowered my eyes slightly, "Thank you. Although the current information is not certain where he is, I believe that with the help of kind people like you, he will be rescued …"

They seemed to be a little flustered, "Don't be sad, Commander, we will start a carpet search now. — — A more precise search in area B345!

I want you to watch the surveillance footage in its entirety!

… "

I let out a sigh. I've already checked the situation records, and there are indeed records of Qi Mu classmate and Xing leaving the airport. But I've watched the entire video of the airport, and I can confirm that it's definitely not Qi Mu classmate.

I also watched it several times, but Saiki classmate's habitual movements did not appear.

I am sure that it must be fake, those two people were just pretending.

But why?

Who would do this?

What is it to hide?

There seems to be only one person who can answer all of this, and that is Saiki Kōsuke!

。

。

I have a perfect family, although I personally have a very bad life experience.

But in fact, whether it is the family structure or the family's financial situation (if you exclude my father, who is much more mediocre than the average middle-aged man in China), our family can be regarded as an unusually warm and happy existence.

And since I studied abroad for a while, I finally regained some of my self-confidence, and I dared to return to China and face my past setbacks and failures.

But I thought that when I returned home, I would be warmly welcomed by my sister, and Kazuo's always awkward and hard to hide way of showing his love for his brother.

But I quietly opened the door with a pile of gifts in my arms.

I thought that I would be greeted with a scream of joy from my sister, and Kazuo would pretend to frown awkwardly.

But I did not receive a welcome. Kazuo knew this, but he did not come out for a long time and put on a disgusted face to welcome me.

However, the room was filled with laughter and chatter.

There were a lot of noisy and unreasonable voices that I have never heard before.

And among them, there was a particularly sharp and piercing voice.

I have never heard a voice that disgusted me so much before.

She seemed to think that she was a member of the family. "Oh, someone is here?

Who could it be? "

She seemed to be a bit excited as she walked over. She seemed to be a bit surprised when she saw me, "May I ask who you are?"

"I should be the one asking you that." She seemed to be unable to see my displeasure, and still put on a fake smile.

"I am Kazuo and Xing's brother, who are you, you unreasonable woman?!

Don't think that just because you entered our house, you are the center of attention here. Perhaps you can get this treatment outside with your appearance.

But let me tell you, Kazuo and Xing think differently!

They won't be bewitched by a shallow woman like you! "

Someone came. She lowered her head, and the shadow of her bangs made her look a bit sinister. As expected, this woman was provoked by my words and gave herself away.

。

She was pulling over Kazuo's normal friend called Hai Teng. She was pleasantly surprised when she saw me, but she was also curious about what I was talking about with that woman. "Xinmei, what are you talking about with my Kōsuke -gege?

Why are you so happy?! "

She raised her head and revealed a perfect smile. It was even brighter than before.

She looked at me meaningfully from the corner of her eyes, but her tone was cheerful and natural. "So it's your brother!?

He brought a lot of Christmas presents! "

Very good, the topic was easily diverted by this woman.

Kazuo also came down from upstairs, and he seemed to be very displeased. What?!

Just because I gave her a small lesson, Kazuo was so angry?

And this woman, I really underestimated her. She actually knew how to retreat in order to advance. She really can't be underestimated.

。

Thus, from that day onwards, I knew that our family was already ruled by this terrifying woman called Shinji Terahashi.

。

I have always been paying attention to this woman. She often used the name of Xing's friend to ask Xing to go shopping with her with ulterior motives. She even purposely used desserts to tempt Xing. And it wasn't just Xing, her main goal was Kazuo.

What a scheming woman!

The most despicable thing was that she tightly grasped Kazuo's weakness — Xing and desserts.

Kazuo clearly knew her goal, but he still went. First, it was because he was worried about Xing's safety. Who knows what that crazy woman would do?

Second, how could Kazuo refuse desserts?!

This woman used all her methods. She was like a strange and disgusting weed that was deeply rooted here, but difficult to get rid of!

。

。

。

Kazuo and Xing had been missing for a long time. It had already been three days, but I understood that this was a long battle, and it wouldn't do if I didn't have some patience.

But I could see that woman almost every day.

That strange and despicable woman.

She seemed to want to sneak into Saiki's room to investigate.

I just looked at her and sneered.

This woman didn't give up for a few days. She wanted to know where Kazuo went.

But Kazuo and Xing's whereabouts could only be controlled by me. Perhaps this was the best opportunity to help Saiki and Xing get rid of this two-faced woman.

I even found actors to play them and bought a plane and plane ticket to England.

Everything had been arranged so logically.

That woman seemed to be a bit disappointed.

But she still persevered.

I was already starting to feel irritated.

Not only was the experiment stalled, but there was also this sick and crazy woman.
