Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 183 You're Getting Married, But the Groom Isn't Me!
Kitahara Natsumi, who was driving, showed no sign of blushing or panic. Instead, Yonehara Akiko, who was driving, blushed slightly and became nervous.

She glanced around and noticed that everyone's attention was on Matsumoto Sayuri and her father, Matsumoto Kiyonaga, and no one seemed to notice their previous little romantic gestures, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

"Are you trying to kill me?" Akiko Yonehara said coquettishly, "Is this the kind of tone, this kind of emphasis, this kind of talk appropriate for this occasion?"

"If other people heard this, where would I put my face?"

She's a teacher, after all. How could she flirt with her boyfriend in public? If she were caught, she'd really have the urge to kill herself.

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu smiled and said, "If I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

"Besides, their attention is all on Matsumoto Sayuri and Matsumoto Kiyonaga, no one will notice me."

"Even if they notice, it doesn't matter. I play some games with my girlfriend, and it's not illegal."

His skin was as thick as a city wall, and he didn't care about these things at all; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get along so easily with so many older women.

Hmph! I'm awesome!
"Shut up!" Akiko Yonehara glared at him, clenched her small fist, bared her teeth, and threatened, "If you keep talking, I'll beat you up when we get back."

fist?

Kitahara Natsuyu glanced at the small, white fist and thought to himself, "This punch will only make me more excited."

He thought that in his heart, but he wouldn't say it out loud.

"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say."

Kitahara Natsuhiro smiled, reached out and covered Yonehara Akiko's fist, gently lowered it, and held it firmly in his hand.

Akiko Yonehara snorted, a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth, and then her fist began to change shape in her palm.

Finally, their index fingers intertwined and they held each other tightly.

Meanwhile, a winner was decided between Matsumoto Kiyonaga and Matsumoto Sayuri.

Ultimately, music teacher Sayuri Matsumoto was no match for her father, who was an administrator.

The lemon tea that had fallen into his hands had been handed over to Inspector Megure, who was preparing to take it for inspection immediately.

Moreover, during the packaging process, the lemon tea was poured out, and capsules that had not been completely dissolved were discovered inside.

Although it was only a part of the capsule, it was enough for Matsumoto Kiyonaga and the other police officers to confirm that the poisoning was real.

However, the person who poisoned the poison was protected by Sayuri Matsumoto, for reasons currently unknown.

At the same time, Matsumoto Kiyonaga also asked other Metropolitan Police Department officers to call over everyone who had entered the dressing room. Once these people came over, along with the videotape in Sonoko's hand, they would definitely be able to find clues about the murderer.

"Dad, can you please stop investigating this matter?" Matsumoto Sayuri pleaded desperately.

She really didn't want to see her father clash with Takasugi Toshihiko, even though she had become his target.

After all, this was her path to atone for her father's sins.

However, in some cases, atonement by others may not be effective; only atonement by the person involved is truly helpful.

Furthermore, Matsumoto Sayuri's atonement will only make Takasugi Toshihiko feel guilty.

Ran mentioned to Conan that Matsumoto Sayuri married Takasugi Toshihiko after being released from prison.

But this is not true happiness; it is a bondage, a bondage created by guilt.

So wake up!

Sayuri Matsumoto.

Upon hearing this, Matsumoto Kiyoshi's face darkened: "Tell me why, Sayuri, why are you helping this man who wants to kill you?!"

Faced with her father's questioning, Matsumoto Sayuri lowered her head and remained silent.

She really couldn't talk about this.

"Let me say it!"

Just then, a woman with freckles walked in. Besides her, there were quite a few other people standing at the door. These were all people who had been to the dressing room that day, and they were all friends of Matsumoto Sayuri.

One of them was her student, but this student had designs on Matsumoto Sayuri.

"One beauty!"

Upon seeing Kazumi appear here, Matsumoto Sayuri immediately became anxious.

Among those present, only Takenaka Kazumi knew the whole story, as she had told Kazumi that she was the only one who knew the truth. Upon hearing this, Takenaka Kazumi smiled with relief: "I really couldn't bear to watch you get killed by this guy."

"Besides, this isn't your fault, and you don't need to take responsibility for your father's actions."

"And do you think the two of you can still live happily together after doing this?"

Upon hearing this, Matsumoto Sayuri fell silent.

She knew that doing this was wrong; it was tantamount to suicide, killing herself.

But for her father's sake, and for the sake of her childhood sweetheart who had protected her when she was young, she had no other choice but to do this.

Meanwhile, Takasugi Toshihiko, standing to the side, felt a sense of dread as he saw that his bride was still alive.

hateful!

I've already figured it out. Why is Matsumoto Sayuri still alive? Why didn't she drink the lemon tea? Isn't that your favorite drink?
Why won't you drink? Why won't you drink?
Takasugi Toshihiko roared furiously in his heart.

All he wants now is to kill Matsumoto Sayuri, so that Matsumoto Kiyonaga can experience what it's like to lose a loved one.

His mother had died at the hands of Matsumoto Kiyonaga, and he wanted to repay her in kind by killing Matsumoto Sayuri.

As for Matsumoto Sayuri, the girl he protected when he was a child, his childhood friend, he had long forgotten about her.

They were just childhood playmates, but we didn't play together for very long, and I don't even remember their names. What kind of childhood sweethearts are we?

Is revenge more important than childhood sweethearts?

No!

Matsumoto Sayuri is love-struck, but Takasugi Toshihiko is not.

"Ichimi, what exactly happened?" Matsumoto Kiyonaga asked.

Upon hearing this, Takenaka Kazumi nodded and recounted everything she knew.

When everyone learned about this, their eyes immediately turned to Toshihiko Takasugi, especially the detectives from the Metropolitan Police Department, who wished they could kill him.

You should know that Matsumoto Sayuri is the daughter of their boss, and a great beauty at that.

They were furious when they learned that their goddess was going to marry someone else.

You're getting married, but the groom isn't me—that's the most accurate description of their situation.

Now, Takasugi Toshihiko is about to marry Matsumoto Sayuri, but he is about to kill her, which they cannot accept.

If they weren't police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department, they would have already taken action.

After all, intentional assault is different from mutual fighting!

"You little brat!!!"

Matsumoto Kiyonaga's face contorted with rage as he grabbed Takasugi Toshihiko by the collar.

"If you want revenge, then come find me! What kind of person are you to come after my daughter, especially in this way! Shameless!"

Upon hearing this, Takasugi Toshihiko sneered, showing no remorse whatsoever: "Say what you will."

“I don’t care at all, because my heart died the moment my mother died.”

"I am still alive in this world only because of the belief in revenge!"

When Matsumoto Sayuri, who was not far away, heard this, her heart sank.

"Don't I mean anything to you?"

"We've only met a few times since we were kids, and you're the daughter of my enemy. You don't actually think I like you, do you?!"

"I'm not a foolish love-struck fool!"

These words completely silenced Matsumoto Sayuri.

The truth is the sharpest knife!
"Takagi, Sato, take this guy to the Metropolitan Police Department!"

"Yes!"
