For Duanmu Ai, the biggest benefit of this cleanup duty was making a friend. At least in her eyes, Fangze Xia was a pretty interesting girl. At least she wasn't a gossip like the idiots in her class. She had heard that Fangze Xia was a competitive gymnast, too, and had to spend every day training.

Hmm, Duanmu Ai was once again convinced that the main reason bullying existed was that students had too little homework.

They really should increase every student's workload until they couldn't go to sleep before midnight. Then they wouldn't have time to bully anyone.

However, it seemed Duanmu Ai's good luck ended there.

She had only just returned to the agency and hadn't even warmed her seat yet when the telephone rang. Then Dote's voice came through the receiver.

"Quick, Duanmu, we've got a case!"

"Let me at least drink some water. I just finished picking up trash in that damn park!"

"Murder."

"I'll be right there."

Duanmu Ai had originally planned to complain a little more, but the moment she heard that it was a murder case, she immediately fell silent. She didn't even have time to drink the coffee Rumiere had brought her before leaving the agency.

After all, no matter where you were, a murder was a very troublesome matter.

Besides, murder cases that required her assistance were generally related to the Electronic Devil.

By the time Duanmu Ai arrived at the scene, the area had already been cordoned off. Crowds of onlookers surrounded it, while the police stood with their backs to the scene and kept watch over them. Duanmu Ai showed her identification to the officer on perimeter duty, and he led her into the crime scene. Then Duanmu Ai saw it at a glance...

"Wow."
