Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

"Hai Meng-chan, turn off the sound."

"it is good."

Kitagawa Kaimu quickly agreed and hurriedly turned off the sound.

As the noise subsided, all the girls breathed a sigh of relief.

Yukino Yukinoshita clenched her teeth, suppressing her shame, and took a deep breath, saying:

"You all go out first..."

“No need,” Natsuki Amamiya said. “This isn’t your sister.”

"Hey, how did Natsuki know?" Kitagawa Kaimu looked over curiously. "That girl hasn't shown her face yet, has she?"

Amamiya Natsuki coughed twice, then said:

"I've seen it before, and I'll show my face later... It's a study video recommended by a friend from junior high school."

Hayasaka Ai gave a disdainful look: "Senpai really loves learning."

Amamiya Natsuki remained unfazed: "Thank you for the compliment."

It's perfectly normal for a healthy male high school student to have a few study materials on his computer. Anyone who says they're not interested is lying; it's an instinct ingrained in the genes of male animals.

"Let me pull it to the back and take a look."

The succubus girl was much more accepting than the other girls. She held the mouse, dragged the progress bar, and the short-haired teacher quickly revealed her face.

"call……"

Yukino Yukinoshita crossed her arms over her chest, her bright eyes unblinking, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Not my older sister.

They were just strangers I didn't know.

"But... why would my sister have something like this on her computer?"

New doubts arose in my mind.

Yukino Yukinoshita quickly bit her lip, putting her doubts to the back of her mind.

My sister is already a 20-year-old college student and has already had her coming-of-age ceremony. It's perfectly normal for her to date others or collect these kinds of videos. There's no need to make a fuss about it.

The most important thing now is to find my sister.

The search continues.

After that, we didn't see anything strange, and eventually found clues in a few photos.

"The photo shows a murder mystery game shop... and it was taken exactly five days ago."

"That's it."

"..."

The group left the apartment and headed straight for the murder mystery game shop.

During the ride, the silly young lady sat next to Amamiya Natsuki and whispered:

"President, please don't watch that kind of awful stuff anymore."

Amamiya Natsuki said seriously, "This is the economic pillar industry of Japan Island..."

"No, it just won't do!" Kaguya Shinomiya straightened her pretty face, her face still burning as she recalled the scene she had just witnessed. That thing was far more impactful than anything in the manga. "That kind of thing... it's disgusting!"

"Those perverts who prey on men on trains and stalk elementary school students must have committed crimes because they watched too much of that kind of stuff, right?"

Hey, don't generalize. Even if those perverts don't study the materials, they'll still commit crimes. External factors are just a trigger!

Natsuki Amamiya said softly:

"I haven't watched it in a long time, but now that you mention it, I suddenly feel like watching it again..."

"What's new now?"

Kaguya Shinomiya crossed her arms and looked over with a smile.

"Suddenly I felt ashamed and guilty," Natsuki Amamiya said with great distress. "It corrodes one's will and weakens one's body. I've decided that I will never watch it again from now on."

"..."

They chatted all the way and soon arrived at the murder mystery game shop.

"Greetings, everyone, welcome..."

The receptionist, dressed in a suit, bowed and smiled politely.

"Hello." Yukino Yukinoshita stepped forward, her voice cool and aloof, and said directly, "We'd like to see the surveillance footage from a murder mystery game from a week ago."

Legitimate murder mystery game studios like these, like movie theaters, are equipped with surveillance cameras, allowing users to not only review materials but also watch the live footage.

"Huh?" The receptionist was taken aback, then quickly shook her head in refusal. "I'm sorry, we can't let you view the guests' privacy."

Amamiya Natsuki stepped forward and said:

"Yukino's older sister has mysteriously disappeared. Before she disappeared, she mentioned coming to a murder mystery game arcade, so we need to see the surveillance video. Please make an exception for us."

"I'm sorry." The receptionist hesitated for a few seconds, then shook her head again. "If you would like to view the surveillance footage, you can ask the police to come and check it."

Snowflakes furrowed her brows beneath the snow.

Yang's disappearance was not a normal one; he simply vanished. Even if the police were notified, they would forget about it and wouldn't come back.

“Miss, I’m sure you’re well aware of the police’s efficiency. We can’t wait any longer.” As Amamiya Natsuki spoke, she took out her wallet and used her money powers to pull out a few Fukuzawa Yukichi bills. “Please help us. We just want to check the surveillance footage. You don’t have to leave. You can stand here and watch.”

The receptionist's eyes widened: "Um..."

“Five minutes.” Amamiya Natsuki took out another stack of Fukuzawa Yukichi’s notes. “We’ll only watch for five minutes at most.”

Faced with Fukuzawa Yukichi's offensive, the receptionist finally couldn't hold her ground, quickly put away the money, and whispered, "Well, okay... hurry up, and I need to keep an eye on things."

Amamiya Natsuki smiled and said, "Of course, no problem."

Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."

Using money to buy off others is completely wrong.

The receptionist beckoned another person to come and fill in, then whispered:

"You guys come with me."

Everyone followed and headed towards the monitoring room.

"Thank you for what happened earlier." Yukino Yukinoshita tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and thanked her softly. "I'll pay you back later."

"We'll talk after we find your sister."

Upon arriving at the monitoring room, they retrieved surveillance footage from five days prior. It didn't take long to find the video of Yukino Yukinoshita playing a murder mystery game. Besides Yukino, there were five other unfamiliar strangers present.

"Strange..." the receptionist said, standing nearby, sounding puzzled, "Why are there only two people playing a murder mystery game?"

Chapter 553 Money Power and the Mysteries of Murder Mysteries

"Only two people are playing a murder mystery game?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the receptionist.

"What...what are you doing?"

Startled by everyone's gaze, the receptionist took a half-step back in a panic.

Oops.

We shouldn't have been so greedy for Fukuzawa Yukichi. Those guys have such scary eyes; they don't look like ordinary high school students at all!

Could I have gotten myself involved in some strange incident?

The receptionist had no idea that her wild speculations had inadvertently led her to guess the truth.

"Ms. Sato, don't be nervous," Natsuki Amamiya said gently. "Take another look at the surveillance video. How many people are in total?"

"……Let me see."

The receptionist took a deep breath and stepped forward.

This is the company's office server room, and there are surveillance cameras overhead. These people can't possibly do anything strange to her.

"Huh, that's strange, how come there are six people now?" The receptionist blinked, her tone surprised.

Natsuki Amamiya then said:

"Now look at me."

"Eh?"

The receptionist paused, turned to look at Amamiya Natsuki, their eyes met, and a blush involuntarily rose on her face.

How strange!

I already have a boyfriend, so why do I feel a sudden flutter in my heart and want to do oral sex with him behind his back?

They're just high school students. Although I'm a sucker for good looks, I'm not so desperate that I'd even go after a high school student!

This is actually the passive effect of the title "Friend of Married Women," but at most it only makes people's hearts flutter and increases the other person's favorability, but it doesn't make people throw themselves into your arms like in the world of adult anime.

Natsuki Amamiya waited silently for a few seconds, then said:

"Ms. Sato, how many people did you just see?"

"Huh?" The receptionist looked puzzled. "Weren't there two people? Why do I have to ask again?"

"..."

They exchanged a silent glance, understanding each other perfectly.

If you look away for just a few seconds, the thing will be erased from your mind. This is no ordinary disappearance; it's most likely affected by something strange.

In this situation, even calling the police would be useless, as no one except the players would remember Yukino Yukinoshita's existence.

A person who does not exist cannot be found.

Kaguya Shinomiya pursed her pink lips and whispered:

"Ms. Sato, please describe the physical characteristics of the two people you saw."
