I just hope to live a leisurely life in the world of anime.

"Hmm... Eh..."

An Shu looked at her expression, which was half surprise and half tears...

I'm really not good at comforting other girls...

Well... I'll ask someone else to do it.

"Hey Ram, come here for a second!"

He shouted something towards the alley entrance, then took out his teacher's terminal to call the police.

###Chapter 543 The Date (Seventeen)###

('We're already at the police station.')

Director's Office.

"You're the police chief."

Sitting in the main seat, An Shu lazily crossed her legs.

The maid standing straight behind him only behaves obediently at times like this.

Even in front of strangers...

She was exceptionally obedient, doing whatever she was asked to do without ever arguing or refusing, and never overstepping her bounds. She truly treated me like a bed warmer, giving me all the face I needed.

But if you really try to boss her around on purpose... then afterwards she'll catch you and bite your cheek in revenge.

Now, she is holding a bespectacled girl of the same age in her arms.

“My student has already told me what happened,” An Shu said, trying to appear arrogant, because these people knew that people with powerful connections would fall for this act. “The shop assistant was a fan of my student, Sakura Airi, the popular online idol ‘Shizuku’. Because Sakura’s camera broke, she went to his shop for repairs, and he recognized her and followed her, attempting to assault her.”

An Shu stated the facts, but the girl in Ram's arms was clearly still unable to get over the incident. When she heard An Shu bring it up again, she subconsciously shrank into the warm embrace.

"Yes, yes, I know, I know!"

Standing opposite An Shu, the somewhat overweight chief placed his police cap on the table, lowered his head to wipe away cold sweat, and dared not look up.

Make sure the people in front of you are satisfied at all costs, or you can retire!

This was a direct order from the police headquarters.

He had just received it half an hour ago.

"You just said that, based on the surveillance footage and sentencing standards, it doesn't actually constitute attempted assault, but only provocation and disturbance, which only warrants fifteen days of detention?"

This was to be expected, and An Shu was not surprised.

But this made the bureau chief think the wrong way. He racked his brains and hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no, actually, our investigation here shows that the shop assistant is also involved in a major arms smuggling case. It seems that he is connected with some terrorist organization and intends to commit treason! I think he should be executed immediately after the investigation is completed! Give the people an explanation."

He spoke with an air of righteous indignation, as if the shop assistant were truly guilty of heinous crimes because of these fabricated accusations.

An Shu almost burst out laughing, but thankfully she managed to hold it in.

"Well, no, Chief, don't be nervous, don't get agitated. I just wanted to ask, if it's only fifteen days of detention, are you confident you can get that shop assistant to reform and start anew? You know we're all averse to trouble, what if that shop assistant comes causing trouble again after fifteen days..."

The bureau chief was stunned for a moment before realizing that he had been overthinking things.

Indeed, in a society governed by law, it's impossible to treat human life so lightly...

"Why not?"

Seeing that he didn't answer, An Shu put on a stern face.

"No! No! Of course not, absolutely no problem! In fifteen days, I can completely transform him into a kind person who will proactively help the elderly cross the street!"

The bureau chief still didn't dare to look up, but he quickly responded.

If we use physical means to make him repent and reform, of course there is no problem.

And even if it's not possible, it has to be possible!

"Well, since that's how it is, then we'll leave now. Don't forget what you said, Chief!"

"Yes...yes!"

……

"Wow, I never expected that Sakura-san, who's always been so obscure, is actually a popular idol!"

On the way back to the student dormitory, An Shu sighed and tried to find a topic to talk about, otherwise the atmosphere would be a bit awkward.

"……Um."

It would indeed be surprising if you didn't know that beforehand.

In real life, she has a slightly hunched back, wears flat-screen glasses, and deliberately ties her hair into rather unflattering pigtails. When she's not in class, she wears sportswear to cover herself up completely, and doesn't talk to people much... To put it bluntly, she looks a bit rustic...

Like the man in a case in Chekhov's famous play.

However, she presents a completely different image online.

Her blog posts are positive, sunny, and optimistic. She doesn't wear glasses, dresses fashionably and cutely, and often takes selfies of herself in pretty dresses and other beautiful outfits. She also does photo shoots for swimsuit and other magazines.

These were documents that the police had dropped out of the police station earlier, and An Shu took a look at them when she had a spare moment.

A girl's soft reply came from behind, but then there was no further response.

This caused the conversation to fall silent again.

Fortunately, it doesn't matter anymore.

The student dormitory building is right in front of us; we're almost home.

Speaking of which, today was really a bit of a pity...

He said he'd take his maid out for a stroll, but after a quick morning outing, he started doing strange things to her from noon onwards...

I was thinking of taking her to continue shopping while we still had some time, but then this happened.

I didn't feel anything all afternoon; it just passed by like that...

Well, I'll bring her out to play again next time! Hmm...

An Shu walked ahead, somewhat lost in thought, until she had walked quite a distance before suddenly realizing that the two girls behind her had not followed.

He turned around, raised his hand to ask a question, but then his maid leaned over and whispered something in the other person's ear, then hugged the other person. He swallowed his words and prepared to see what they were up to.

###Chapter 544 The Date (End)###

Teacher Anshu is amazing!

According to the police, the man's shoulder bone was fractured and his nose was caved in after hitting the wall. He was covered in blood when the ambulance took him away; it was a horrifying sight.

But he deserved it.

If I hadn't happened to run into Teacher Anshu, I would have been in trouble...

There wasn't much sympathy left, because it was his own fault.

And Teacher Anshu is so impressive!

In that police station, even the chief didn't dare to speak loudly; he was extremely respectful...

I lowered my head, held tightly to Ram's arm, and followed in her footsteps.

We're almost at the dorm.

Because they were brought back from the police station in a police car, it was relatively quick.

My thoughts were jumping around and wandering when I suddenly noticed that my classmate Ram had stopped.

"Airi-chan..."

When she gently called my name in a hoarse voice, I stopped and instinctively looked up at her...

"Um..." Ram scratched her cheek, seemingly having something difficult to say. "Well, Airi, you can't go back by yourself for the rest of the journey, can you? I have a few words I want to say to Master..."

Lam's voice was a little hoarse, not at all like the clear and crisp voice I usually heard in the classroom after school. I don't know why, but I can guess that she probably has a cold.

And speaking of which, Ram and her younger sister, Rem, have always called Teacher Anshu "Master"... I wonder why...

"Eh..."

I don't know why Ram suddenly said that, but I still agreed.

After all, they saved him today, and he couldn't shamelessly stay and cause them trouble.

And Teacher Anshu and student Ram were acting strangely today... it seems...

Since I met them today, I don't think I've seen them speak to each other at all...

No, it seems that it's only Ram who hasn't spoken to Teacher Anshu!

Was she throwing a tantrum? I don't know... probably.

"Eh, umm, I'm sorry, Airi-chan..."

Ram called me by my name affectionately, which reminded me of the time I cried in her arms in the alley because I was so scared...

She also called herself that affectionately and comforted herself in the same way.

Actually, this is the most surprising thing for me! I never expected Ram to be so gentle...

I often saw her talking back to Teacher Anshu, so I thought she would be a shrew or the kind of person who was hard to deal with, but it turned out to be the opposite.

"Hmm, if Airi-chan is still feeling sad or unwell, you can come visit me! Tonight or tomorrow is fine! I'll be home all day!"

"Looking for... Ram."

"Yeah! After all, we're friends now. I've made a friend with a popular idol, so I'm going to introduce you to Miori-nee and the others! Hehe~"

"friend"

Ram's words left me stunned and at a loss for what to do.

This is a term I haven't heard in a long time...

It's understandable to feel lost, isn't it?

"Yes, isn't that right?"

"Yes!"
