"But..." Mrs. Yoshida wanted to say that she was the one who killed the man, so how could her husband leave a suicide note?

But she couldn't say this. She racked her brains, and suddenly, a bold idea popped up in her mind. Could it be that Xiao Che took out this suicide note and poison on purpose?

But she quickly dismissed this ridiculous idea.

Putting aside the fact that Xiao Che was still in the first grade and didn't know many words, even if he could recognize all the words and knew everything about his family, how could he imitate his husband's handwriting? And the matter of poison, how could a child possibly get hold of such a thing?

But if it wasn't Xiao Che, how could all this be explained? She didn't believe that her extremely selfish husband would have suicidal thoughts.

"Auntie? What's wrong with you?"

Watanabe Toru's voice pulled her out of her thoughts again. Mrs. Yoshida looked into Watanabe Toru's clear, harmless eyes and forced a smile: "It's nothing, Auntie is just a little tired."

"Is it uncle?"

"Well, uncle has left this world and gone to a place far away. Auntie and Ayumi may also have to leave here and move to live somewhere else."

021. You don’t like Ayumi, do you?

Three days have passed since the incident.

Just like the previous few days, Ayumi took a leave of absence from school today.

"Hey, what do you say? We should go see Ayumi after school today?" During the break, Mitsuhiko suggested to Watanabe Toru and Genta, "Ayumi's father passed away. She must be very sad now. As her good friends, we should go and comfort her."

"I agree." Genta raised his hand and agreed: "If we go, Ayumi will definitely be happy."

"But I heard from Ayumi's mother that they were moving and might not live there anymore." Watanabe Toru reminded: "If we just go there, we might end up empty-handed."

"Moving?" Mitsuhiko was surprised. "Where are they moving to? Away from Tokyo?"

"I don't know about that." Watanabe Toru shook his head. "But I don't think he'll leave Tokyo. After all, it takes a long time to get familiar with an unfamiliar environment."

Mitsuhiko finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"But this is just my guess." Watanabe Toru continued: "Maybe Ayumi hasn't moved yet. If we go over there, we might be able to help a little."

"Uh-huh."

When the bell rang, the students who were chatting together immediately dispersed and returned to their seats.

After a while, Kobayashi Sumiko walked into the classroom.

She looked at the students below, adjusted her glasses, and said, "The monthly test results are out. Many students have made great progress. The teacher is very happy."

"It's over."

Toru Watanabe heard Genta's trembling voice behind him.

"This exam was more difficult than usual, but one student managed to get a perfect score. He was also one of the participants in this monthly test."

"Congratulations, Watanabe-san! This exam has given me a deeper understanding of you. I hope you can continue to work hard. Other students should also learn from Watanabe-san."

The first place is actually Toru Watanabe!

Not only other classmates, but even Mitsuhiko and Genta, who spent every day with Watanabe Toru, were staring at Watanabe Toru in amazement.

Xiao Che, is he so powerful?

"In addition, the teacher must fulfill the promise made before the exam." Kobayashi Sumiko continued: "Whoever gets first place in this monthly test will receive a special reward from the teacher."

Here comes the reward...

Watanabe Toru looked at Kobayashi Sumiko expectantly as she took out a gift box and said to him, "Watanabe-san, please come up and receive your gift."

"Thank you, Teacher Kobayashi." Toru Watanabe walked up to the podium and took the gift box from Sumiko Kobayashi.

……

After class, Toru Watanabe was surrounded by female classmates.

Girls of this age always have a good impression of male classmates with good grades. In addition, Watanabe Toru's handsome appearance makes them want to get closer to Watanabe Toru.

"Watanabe-san, you're amazing. You're actually one of them."

"No wonder you're taking this monthly test. It turns out you're such a good student, Toru Watanabe."

"Watanabe-san, let's go home together after school."

In contrast, when the boys saw that Watanabe Toru was so popular with the girls, they all increased their hostility towards him.

Only Mitsuhiko, Genta and three or four other boys gathered around because they were curious about the gift from Kobayashi Sumiko.

"Xiao Toru, open it quickly and see what gift Mr. Kobayashi gave you." Mitsuhiko looked expectantly at the gift box in Watanabe Toru's hand.

Watanabe Toru nodded and gently opened the gift box.

A toy appeared in everyone's sight.

"Wow! It's a limited edition Kamen Rider toy." Genta shouted excitedly, "It just came out. I heard it costs 3,000 yen each."

"I didn't expect Mr. Kobayashi to give me such a great gift." Mitsuhiko said with envy, "Xiaotetsu, you are so lucky."

The other students also looked at Watanabe Toru with envy.

Watanabe Toru looked at the toy in his hand. This toy, which was a treasure in the eyes of others, was no different from scrap metal in his eyes. It was even not as worthwhile as the 100 points given by the system.

"How about giving this to Ayumi? She should like it," said Toru Watanabe.

Mitsuhiko was shocked and said in disbelief: "Xiaotetsu, you, you want to give this to Ayumi?"

"Yeah, doesn't it mean that Ayumi doesn't like Kamen Rider?"

"But this is a limited edition."

Watanabe Toru smiled and said, "So what?"

"Xiao Toru, you don't like Ayumi, do you?" Genta looked at Watanabe Toru suspiciously.

In his opinion, limited edition toys are more precious than eel rice. If someone doesn't like it, how could he give it away so easily?

022. Auntie’s reward to Xiao Che

After school, Watanabe Toru and the other two came to Ayumi's house.

Watanabe Toru rang the doorbell, and after Ayumi opened the door, the three people outside were stunned.

After not seeing her for a few days, Ayumi looked much more haggard. Her big, bright eyes now looked dull, her eye sockets were red and slightly swollen.

Seeing Watanabe Toru and the other two, Ayumi's eyes lit up and she asked in surprise, "Xiao Toru, why are you here?"

"We came to see you." Watanabe Toru smiled and said, "Also, I brought you a gift."

He took out the Kamen Rider hidden behind his back and handed it to Ayumi: "This is a gift from Mr. Kobayashi as a reward for getting first place in the monthly test. Now, I give it to you."

"This, this is a limited edition Kamen Rider toy?" Ayumi is also a fan of Kamen Rider and she could tell the specialness of the toy at a glance.

"Yes, do you like it?"

"I like it." Ayumi nodded without hesitation, but she looked up at Watanabe Toru in disbelief. "Are you really going to give me such an expensive gift, Toru? This is you...ah, Toru, did you get first place in the monthly test?"

She finally realized there was something even more worth celebrating.

Watanabe Toru nodded and said, "Well, I'm lucky this time."

"Xiaotetsu is amazing." Ayumi said in admiration: "By the way, everyone please come in, it's just a bit of a mess at home."

"Are you moving?"

"Ah."

When I walked into the house, I saw large and small cardboard boxes on the floor. The curtains and wall hangings had been taken down and thrown randomly on the sofa.

Ayumi shouted into the bedroom, "Mom, Xiaotuo and the others are here."

After a while, Mrs. Yoshida came out of the bedroom with her hair tied up, a headscarf on, and an apron around her waist. Because her husband had just passed away, she was not wearing any makeup, but even so, her simple and elegant oval face still pleased Watanabe Toru.

"You're all welcome to come and play," Mrs. Yoshida said to the three people with a smile, "but I'm sorry, I'm too busy at home to prepare any snacks for you."

"We're not here for snacks," Yuan Tai said loudly. "We're here to help."

"help?"

"Yes, Auntie." Watanabe Toru smiled and said, "We heard that you were moving, so we came over to help. If there's anything you need us to do, please let us know."

"Ah...thank you." Mrs. Yoshida looked grateful.

"Mom." Ayumi held up the Kamen Rider toy and said, "This is a gift that Xiaotuo brought me. He got first place in this monthly test, and it's a reward from Mr. Kobayashi."

"Really?" Mrs. Yoshida looked at Watanabe Toru with some surprise. She didn't expect that he actually got one.

"That's amazing, Che."

Watanabe Toru said modestly: "It's just good luck. Auntie, let me help you, Genta and Mitsuhiko will help Ayumi clean up."

"No problem." Yuan Tai patted his chest and said loudly: "Leave it to us."

Mrs. Yoshida couldn't refuse the children's enthusiasm. She smiled and said, "Thank you very much. After we move, I will treat you all to delicious cakes."

"Okay." Yuantai became more motivated.

In the bedroom.

Mrs. Yoshida folded the clothes and then Toru Watanabe put them into a cardboard box.

"Auntie, where are you and Ayumi planning to move to?"

"I'll move to the apartment near Beika Station. If you're free, you can come over and visit, Tohru."

"Okay." Watanabe Toru nodded: "Then do you really want to sell the house here?"

"Yes, after all, Ayumi's father..." Mrs. Yoshida sighed softly: "Fortunately, it's all over. Xiao Toru, auntie wants to thank you."

"Eh? Thank me?"

"Yes, if you hadn't found those two things last time, maybe your aunt would..." Mrs. Yoshida shook her head and didn't say anything else.

Even though she still hasn't figured out how the suicide note and the bottle of poison appeared in her home, she was lucky to have found them at the critical moment. Otherwise, she would have knelt down and confessed after the police searched her.

She looked at Watanabe Toru, rubbed his head with her hand, and said gently: "Xiao Che got first place in this exam. Auntie promised Xiao Che that she would give him a reward."

A flash of surprise crossed Watanabe Toru's face. He had thought that Mrs. Yoshida, having just lost her husband, would feel a bit guilty or lost. But now it seemed that she hated Yoshida Fujiya so much that his death hadn't affected her at all.

Looking up at the stunningly beautiful widow in front of him, Watanabe Toru was so excited that his throat felt a little dry.

"Auntie, can I kiss you?"

"Of course." Mrs. Yoshida moved her face closer.

I thought Watanabe Toru would just touch my lips lightly, but unexpectedly, he pressed his lips against my own.

Mrs. Yoshida was a little confused.

When she came to her senses, Watanabe Toru had already left her lips and said with recollection: "Auntie's lips are as sweet as Mom's."

Mrs. Yoshida's face flushed slightly, and she gave Watanabe Toru a look: "Okay, the reward has been given, hurry up and help Auntie put the clothes into the cardboard box."

"Okay." Watanabe Toru responded happily.

023. The Suzuki family is going to hold a party

Maori family.

When Xiaolan saw Toru Watanabe pushing the door open, she stopped vacuuming.

"Xiao Che, you're back."

"Yeah." Watanabe Toru put down his schoolbag, took out the perfect test paper from it, and handed it to Xiaolan like a treasure: "Sister Xiaolan, the results of this monthly test are out, and I got first place."

"Huh? Really?" Xiaolan quickly put down the vacuum cleaner and took the test paper from Watanabe Toru. Seeing the score on it, she smiled happily and said, "Great, Toru."
