"So, it was a suicide attack?"
Somewhat incredulously, Miyuki Shiba sought answers from her older brother.
"I'm afraid so."
Since the tools used in the crime have all disappeared, all we can do now is analyze the situation. However, based on Chiba Yeyou's feedback, it can be basically confirmed that this was a premeditated suicide terrorist attack.
"Um?"
"What's wrong?"
Tatsuya Shiba looked at the suddenly stopped Miyuki.
"That's despicable!"
Miyuki Shiba's face was pale, and she gripped her dress tightly with both hands.
"Ah?"
Seeing his sister like this, Tatsuya Shiba smiled and gently patted her shoulder to comfort Miyuki.
"Criminals and terrorists are inherently despicable. They will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, disregarding life and killing indiscriminately, because those who give the orders will almost never risk their own lives."
"So you're here too!"
"And they even arrived earlier than us!"
The two siblings had just reached the door when they heard Chiba Yeyou's exclamation.
"Mmm!"
"It's nothing!"
"It was just a matter of using a few connections!"
Erika Chiba proudly showed off.
Good heavens!
"I can only say it's amazing!"
"I'm not the only one here!"
"And Mizuki and the others, consider this a vacation!"
"Why?"
" Tatsuya, Miyuki!"
Erika Chiba suddenly spotted the Shiba siblings at the door and greeted them.
What are you doing here?
Miyuki Shiba was somewhat surprised, Erika Chiba was not on the list of participants for the Nine Schools Competition.
"This guy said he came to cheer us on."
" Erika, Chiba Yeyou, I'm leaving now. See you later!"
See you later!
Chiba Yeyou waved her hand.
"Okay, see you later!"
"At least let me say hello..."
Erika Chiba looked at Miyuki Shiba with a hint of complaint, somewhat displeased.
"Sorry, there are senior technicians waiting."
"Then why doesn't he go?"
Erika Chiba pointed at Chiba Yeyou beside her and asked in confusion.
"You don't like me? Then I'll leave?"
Chiba Yeyou Erika Chiba glanced at Chiba, saying she was leaving, but she showed no intention of moving.
"Yes!"
"Aren't you going?"
Miyuki Shiba looked at Chiba Yeyou with some confusion.
"I'm only responsible for two people. I've said what I needed to say and done what I needed to do. What else would I need to do?"
"He's not in charge of so many people like your brother; he can't not go."
Chiba Yeyou explained.
"Then how come my brother is in charge of so many people, while you're only in charge of two?"
Miyuki Shiba was somewhat confused about how the money was allocated.
"Don't feel sorry for your brother; this is a good opportunity for him too."
What opportunity?
"I'm giving you a chance to find a sister-in-law!"
Chiba Yeyou approached Miyuki Shiba.
"Sister-in-law... Sister-in-law!"
Miyuki Shiba was struck dumb, and her entire being began to emanate a chilling aura.
" Miyuki, he's just joking!"
Erika Chiba quickly tugged at Miyuki Shiba.
"Oh, I'm sorry!"
Miyuki Shiba snapped out of her daze and quickly apologized to Erika Chiba.
"Snort!"
After apologizing, Miyuki Shiba immediately gave Chiba Yeyou a haughty and disdainful look.
"Okay, I'm just kidding. Actually, this is an opportunity for your brother to gain more recognition, don't you think?"
"Um!"
Miyuki Shiba agreed, as her greatest wish was for her brother to shine and gain recognition and praise from those around him.
"Alright, you two chat, I'm going back to rest for a while."
See you later!
See you later.
Chiba Yeyou took her room key and went to find her room.
"502?"
Looking at the room key in my hand, I stepped into the elevator.
" Chiba Yeyou?"
"Oh, Mizuki!"
Chiba Yeyou looked up at the person in front of her and realized it was Mizuki Shibata.
Are you going to find your room?
"Okay, I'll go rest for a while."
"Let me check your room key. Oh, 502 is the second room on the left."
Mizuki Shibata leaned over to look at the room key in Chiba Yeyou's hand, then gave him a specific location.
How do you know so much?
"We arrived two days early."
"Wow, you're here really early!"
"I'm here to cheer you on!"
Mizuki Shibata clenched her little fist and made a cheering gesture.
Thank you!
"Also, this outfit suits you very well, it's beautiful!"
Chiba Yeyou stepped into the elevator, glanced at Mizuki Shibata, and then praised her.
"Thank you... thank you!"
Mizuki Shibata ran away, her face flushed.
"This little girl is really interesting!"
"Uh, I think I'm only 16 too."
Back in her room, Chiba Yeyou lay down and rested for a while.
"Ta-da!"
"Who?"
" Chiba Yeyou, the social gathering is about to begin!"
A familiar voice came from outside the door. Chiba Yeyou opened the door and, as expected, it was Mayumi Saegusa.
"So, does this count as an invitation?"
My president!
Chiba Yeyou chuckled softly.
"Certainly!"
Mayumi Saegusa extended her hand in invitation.
"Hmm, should I consider saying yes?"
Chiba Yeyou in thought.
"Okay, I'll agree!"
Chiba Yeyou reached out and placed her hand on Mayumi Saegusa's outstretched hand.
"Have we got them mixed up?"
"Have we got them mixed up?"
"Puff!"
"Hahaha!"
Chiba Yeyou and Mayumi Saegusa couldn't help but chuckle at their sudden unanimous agreement, as if Mayumi Saegusa were a man inviting Chiba Yeyou, the lady.
The two arrived at the venue, where elites from various universities were gathered, chatting and drinking.
"Would you two distinguished guests like a drink?"
The sudden, familiar voice startled the two of them.
" Erika, you look great in that outfit!"
"I never knew you had the potential to be a maid."
Chiba Yeyou sized up Erika Chiba.
"Of course!"
Erika Chiba didn't care about Chiba Yeyou's gaze; she even turned around once.
Mayumi Saegusa handed one of the two wine glasses in her hand to Chiba Yeyou.
"I'm leaving. Mari and the others still have some things to take care of. You two chat!"
Mayumi Saegusa gave a soft snort and left.
"Sorry, I made your girlfriend leave."
Erika Chiba didn't seem a little apologetic at all.
On the contrary, they seemed somewhat gloating.
"Then you'll stay with me!"
Chiba Yeyou Erika rolled her eyes at Erika Chiba, clearly annoyed.
"I'm a staff member at the event, not just anyone!"
Erika Chiba took the plate and left.
Chiba Yeyou chuckled and shook her head.
"Click!"
