I, who advocate giving up, feel like a disqualified person

"Well..." Let's not delve into this matter any further. "Speaking of which, have you received any commissions recently?"

Actually, I was a little worried that one of Lin Yi’s friends would ask me for help again, so I asked as soon as possible.

"Ah... Actually, it wasn't a big deal, but I recently encountered a troublesome commission. Here's what happened: that day, there was a first-year student..."

"Stop, stop, stop... I'm not interested in this..."

I quickly interrupted him before he continued to tell the story.

"Oh... Anyway, because of that commission, I had a fight with that unreasonable club leader."

"Ah...that was quite unexpected."

I thought based on his personality, he wouldn't get angry easily... Is it true that appearances are not the best guide?

"Is it because the commission is too difficult? Or is it a matter of principle?" I asked.

"Of course it's because it's too difficult." He became excited when he talked about the commission, and suddenly looked at me.

"..."

What...what's going on? This is...

"Just think about it. How on earth are we going to find the owner of an umbrella with nothing more than this?! And this client keeps asking about our progress every day... It's giving me a headache just thinking about it."

"......oh...."

It's none of my business, it's none of my business...

"By the way, I remember you weren't very good at reasoning before? Could you..."

"cannot!"

I rejected him decisively, I was just that skilled.

...

Exploration and Discussion

This is not bragging, I am very good at judging people.

It is incredible to say that in thousands of years of culture, there are very few books about science and technology handed down, but there are many principles about how to deal with the world.

Maybe that's why... We all have the ability to judge a person to some extent, but proper learning can strengthen this skill.

It is impossible for a person to live his whole life without any contact with others... As long as there is contact, various connections will be generated, and the ability to make use of these connections is what many people want to learn.

It's similar to pursuing someone you like, where you need to design a strategy based on their personality... Actually, asking someone for help and pursuing a strategy are the same thing. The most important thing is the power of words and the subtle intuition used to judge a person.

When I asked the freshman named Yi Sheji, "Can you help me?", he skillfully denied it with "no".

This shows that he has developed an instinctive reaction to similar questions to a certain extent... Of course, if it were an ordinary person, he might answer "No, get lost" because of a certain joke, but he did not say the most crucial last word, which at least shows that he is not playing a joke, but he really hates being entrusted by others from the bottom of his heart... In other words, he hates troublesome things.

No one hates something from the beginning. And if he really hated it, why did he help someone investigate our case last time? In other words, he used to help others, but for some reason he stopped helping and developed a habit of saying "no."

But deep down, he's still worried about the person in need... In short, he's a one-sided person. Getting him to act is easy; just one reason is all it takes.

Well, the reason why I understand him so well is probably because I feel that he is a bit like me... This should be intuition.

If it were me, it might be a little difficult, but if it were him... he could probably find that person. I still have some expectations for him.

"..."

Suddenly I thought of the saying, "Expectations are something you can only express when you know you are powerless."

Really, that's what this feeling is like...

Well... after all, he is really talented.

Chapter 1: Exploration and Discussion

"Don't refuse so directly, think about it again..."

He gave me an awkward yet polite smile.

"What am I even considering? If you think it's impossible to solve, how can I possibly solve it? Besides, this is your club's business, why should I help?"

Besides, just moving these to the designated place would use up all my reserve energy for the day, leaving me no way to do anything else.

"Yeah...never mind..." He didn't say anything else.

"Hmm... but have you ever read a novel about deduction based on objects? I remember a Sherlock Holmes fanfiction called 'The Case of Two Old Newspapers'... I don't remember the author, but it left a deep impression on me."

Through reasoning, it was concluded that the newspapers could actually form a mask when put together, and then the dates printed on the newspapers were used to determine that the robbery had occurred on those days... The tools used in the crime included these two newspapers... In short, it was a very magical plot.

"...I haven't heard of this..." He sounded somewhat helpless, "It seems I'm still ignorant."

"After all, it's a fan work... I saw it in a detective fiction magazine before, so it's normal that you don't know about it."

Well, that's the reality. It's hard to surpass a famous author like Conan Doyle, and fan fiction is probably only remembered for its good plot; almost no one remembers the author's name.

"Hmm..." He thought for a moment after hearing what I said, then asked me, "You mean, if we treat this commission as a case, we can find the answer according to the routine in the novel, right?"

"No, I mean... this is something only Holmes can do. Let's forget about it."

"........"

. . . . . . . . . . . .

After moving the boxes to the printing room, I didn't want to go back to class immediately...because I was very tired.

"Um... walk slower... why are you so eager? Class starts in a while."

I reminded the person in front...who was it...

"...It's better to go back quickly. You can't take a break in the middle of a busy schedule." He shook his head at me, but his pace still slowed down. "In fact, every grade you move up adds a little more tension... Don't you have any knowledge points you don't understand? Even though we've been divided into arts and science, we still have to take the unified exam in the second year. It covers all subjects, including physical education. Aren't you nervous?"

“.........Not nervous...ah.” I replied expressionlessly.

The reason why I am not nervous is because I am already desperate.

"Oh... I see. So, you must be a good student, right? After all, you give the impression of being quite intelligent."

"Hmm... maybe that's the way it can be understood."

Study?... No! Wrong! It doesn't exist.

But I cannot agree that you are very smart, after all, there is a guy who questions my IQ all day long.

“That’s amazing…”

"It's not that great actually." This is the truth.

"Ha... Anyway, I'll think about that request carefully, even though it's troublesome... Speaking of which, our president hasn't seen you in a long time since that incident, and he's been missing you a little. Why don't you go visit us sometime? Even if it's just for a stroll, okay?"

"...Um...Okay..."

What kind of words are you saying to an old friend? And why would the club leader miss me? Even if it's just a polite remark, it's too stiff.

"Well, I'd better go ahead. Maybe there's anything else you need my help with." He said and waved to me. "See you next time."

"it is good...."

After saying that, he ran away quickly.

I used to think he was a bit like me... but looking at the current situation, his energy consumption is at least ten thousand times higher than mine, and he doesn't seem to mind trouble.

So, I was wrong.

He is nothing like me.

..............................

"Oh, she didn't come today?"

I arrived at my own club after sweeping the floor for the absent classmates, and then I found that the junior girl who always came here to ask about the progress was not reading in the chair that had almost become her exclusive seat.

"She left early...it seems like something happened at home."

The president, sitting at her desk, had a look of relief on her face. "It's a good thing she left early, otherwise..." she said, pulling her phone out of her pocket, "I wouldn't be able to continue playing Hearthstone in the middle of it."

"Yeah...that's right..."

Now I am not surprised no matter what she does, because that is just the way she is...I am used to it.

Besides, it is indeed impolite to play games in front of others.

"Then why did you take it out now?"

"I thought she was back, and then I realized it was you," she said with a hint of dissatisfaction. "I got so flustered that I played the wrong cards, and even a sure-win situation became difficult to play."

Blame me...

"Well... come to think of it." I picked up the umbrella and looked at it carefully, but unfortunately I still couldn't figure out what was going on. Then I picked up the "Case Study" written by my junior schoolmate and took a look at it... This was a reason for delaying, because the client used the excuse that "it would be difficult to investigate without detailed details", so he wrote down what happened at that time.

The font is quite neat.

By the way, this wasn't my idea, but the club leader personally requested it...which seems like an excuse to me.

"It seems like a novel..."

But it is still worth referring to...Because I met that person twice in the school corridor, so it is possible that I met him there for the third time on a rainy day.

However...it has been a while since this happened. It's just an umbrella. A normal person would have bought a new umbrella and forgotten about it.

so...

"How abnormal is it to think of such a request..."

I couldn't help but rub my numb scalp and complain. Besides, this is not our job at all...

"Stop nagging me. You've been following me around all day and have made so many contributions, how could you not even care about such a small matter..."

"Stop, stop, stop. Although my name is Xun Yu, which is pronounced the same as the famous historical strategist Xun Yu, and even has the same surname, please don't treat me as your subordinate. I have my own dignity, okay?

I interrupted her with a little displeasure.

"Oh, to be honest... my ancestors do have some connection with the Cao family."

"It's enough!"

"Haha, just kidding~"

She is still the same as always. When she makes me angry, she just brushes it off with words like "It's a joke"... Damn it, who allowed you to joke with me?

"...Well, it seems I can't handle this commission." I threw the "Criminal Process" in my hand on the table and then collapsed on the sofa.

"Wow, Xiao Yu, what's wrong with you? Didn't you promise... promised me to solve this problem? Why are you saying now that you can't solve it?"

It was clearly her fault, but it seems like she is the one who pissed me off first... Where is justice?

"Yes...I did say I would solve this matter, but just because I can't solve it doesn't mean it can't be solved."

"...How can you say that?"

She suddenly became interested.

"Well, it's like this. Today I happened to meet that person...who exposed our modus operandi..."

"What do you mean by a modus operandi? That sounds so ugly! That's called a battle plan! I've told you so many times, are we some kind of thief gang?"

...Now I have to think about the name...

"Okay, okay... He's the first-year junior who figured out our plan last time. His name was Yi Sheji... Do you remember him?"

"Oh~ It's him, I know, I know, that kid is very capable... You want him to help, right?"

Maybe my intention was too obvious, she guessed what I was thinking directly.

"Yeah, it's just that we have a problem and he doesn't seem to want to help."

"why."

"...Maybe he's afraid of trouble." How would I know why? I didn't ask.

"No, it must be that the way you entrusted it was wrong. If it were me, he would definitely agree."

Where does she get the courage from?

"...Then go ahead and give it a try."

It doesn't matter. Just go and persuade them. It's none of my business anyway.
