I, Tomoya Aki, am not a bootlicker

Now tell him that this person is of the same kind, and he is about to go bad.

"Ah, your reaction is really exaggerated..."

Akitomo Tomo was also an insider. If they were not both otakus and the other had not started writing light novels, they would not have met each other because of such a chance.

However, he was still a little surprised at this moment. The senior sister who had never exposed this fact in Fengzhizaki Academy, took the initiative to tear off the mask in front of several juniors except him today.

"An Yi, I think I understand why you and this amazing senior know each other. It turns out you two were the same kind before!"

Kudo Sayaka looked at him with interest.

I didn’t expect that he was also a otaku. So that’s it. So that’s it!

Although she was surprised, Sayaka Kudo had no prejudice against otakus because of Tomoya Aki. Besides, she had been treated with prejudice when she was a naughty boy in the past.

Kato Megumi's reaction was even simpler, as if she was not surprised at all, probably because she had already seen some clues a long time ago.

In fact, after revealing her true identity as a otaku, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt indescribably refreshed.

It’s really comfortable to not have to worry about other things and just let go and do what you like.

Kasumigaoka Utaha doesn’t have any special singing skills, but her singing is definitely not bad and is enjoyable to listen to.

After singing a song with Eriri, a faint pink appeared on her cheeks and she was breathing a little hard, as if she had exerted too much effort.

“It seems good…”

Evaluating her own performance, out of a total of 10, Kasumigaoka Utaha gave herself a 7.

After that, the weekend party ends around the time the sun sets.

Although it is summer vacation, it does not mean that everyone is really free. After entering university, thanks to the habits developed in high school, everyone has a lot of things to do.

Without wasting too much time, they each went their separate ways. Before leaving, what impressed Utaha Kasumigaoka the most was probably the look of surprise on Kiyako's face from behind her, which he couldn't calm down for a long time.

"I'm still a homebody. I'm really sorry."

Kasumigaoka Utaha muttered to herself.

While saying goodbye to them, Aki Tomoya and Kudo Sayaka started teasing each other again.

Kasumigaoka Utaha turned her head to look at Eriri beside her and said thank you awkwardly.

"Eh? You know how to say thank you too?"

Eriri thought she had misheard and turned to look at Kasumigaoka Utaha in surprise.

She was surprised to see Kasumigaoka Utaha looking a little awkward and shy.

Besides, what should I say, what did she do?

"Just forget what I said!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha replied unhappily.

However, she was still sincerely grateful to Eriri for inviting her and taking her out to play today.

Otherwise, it would be really boring to just stay at home and write novels.

People should always relax.

Moreover, like this, it's nice to let go occasionally. She seemed to realize how carefree Eriri has been living in the past two years.

At the same time, I also understand that this guy must have received a lot of care from Aki Tomoya.

She could only sigh that this was the unique advantage that childhood sweethearts had.

"Pfft, you are too stingy, can't I tease you a little?"

Eriri smiled.

But to be honest, she didn't expect that Kasumigaoka Utaha would let go today.

After all, at today's party, the only people who knew his true identity were her and Tomoya Aki.

I never expected that my kindness would make this proud writer soften his heart and say thank you.

"Eri, here you go... I don't know what you like to drink, senior, is iced coffee okay?"

After seeing off Sayaka Kudo, Tomoya Aki came back with three cans of iced coffee. He handed them to Eriri and then looked at his senior.

It was quite convenient for him to meet these two, and Akitomo had no intention of avoiding the seniors on purpose. Even though their relationship was not as close as before, it was at least more than strangers but less than friends.

We have already talked about the past at the last social gathering.

"Thank you."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded, and then began to look at Aki Tomoya seriously.

Her meticulous gaze made Akitomo feel a little awkward, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"I just thought of a new topic. I'm not so keen on the topic of youth romance for the time being."

After writing light novels about youth romance one after another and taking stomach medicine all the time, Kasumigaoka Utaha feels that it is boring.

Now she wanted to write about something else.

"For example, open a pseudonym and send an introduction to a popular fiction publisher?"

"puff!"

"puff!"

Tomoya Aki and Eriri were sprayed out at the same time and almost choked.

"Ms. Machida will kill you if you do this!"

Eriri complained.

Aki Tomoya standing beside him felt the same way.

Kasumigaoka Utaha jokingly replied: "If it doesn't work, I'll continue to write light novels under the pen name Kasumigaoka Utaha. If it becomes popular, it will be adapted into a TV series or movie!"

It still sounds ambitious, but Tomoya Aki and Eriri can still tell that this senior is mostly joking.

But Eriri is still looking forward to her future works.

But before that—

"Finish writing this book for me first! Many people want to lock you up in a small dark room, hoping that you will become a creature who can only write novels!"

Chapter 202: The cicadas are chirping, and people are corrupt (3/?)

The cicadas' chirping sounds are very annoying.

The enthusiasm of summer vacation is directly proportional to the temperature.

When your passions run high, Tokyo's hot and humid weather will teach you a lesson.

After the rainy season, the temperature continues to rise. In this kind of weather, air conditioning is your best friend.

Tomoya Aki came to UDI in the morning and enjoyed the air conditioning in the office. Work had not yet begun, so he was chatting with people in the office.

"The lawsuit involving Mr. Tansho should have been settled out of court."

He talked about the first body he came into contact with, which was related to a medical dispute.

The family of the deceased, Mr. Tansho, eventually sued the hospital, arguing over the patient's and family's right to know, and whether the hospital had been negligent in clearly explaining the possible risks of treatment to the family.

Because of this incident, the UDI identification results and the hospital's original death certificate were brought to court.

"Ami-kun is still paying attention to that matter. I remember that Dr. Sakamoto came here for this matter before." Misaki Mikoto turned and looked at him.

"Well, the lawyer who accepted this lawsuit is a lecturer at my friend's university."

Aki Tomoya paid attention to this matter because he had talked about it with Kato Megumi.

The lecturer used words of condemnation and regret to attack the hospital in court, emphasizing that society should pay more attention to licardoine allergy.

However, even so, the bereaved family was under considerable pressure and would rather settle out of court and get compensation from the hospital to put the matter at rest.

Since Kato Megumi was able to obtain such first-hand information, it can be seen that she is quite popular in the university.

"An out-of-court settlement is good. There is no benefit in continuing to fight with the hospital."

Mikoto Misumi felt that it would be understandable if it was an out-of-court settlement.

After all, if we consider the reality, when a family loses its main labor force and the breadwinner passes away, the compensation paid by the hospital can be alleviated a lot, and they are not very optimistic about continuing the lawsuit.

Reaching a settlement with the hospital is a good result.

However, the settlement was reached so quickly, perhaps this was the purpose from the beginning.

While they were chatting, the director, Yasuo Kamikura, suddenly walked into the office and said seriously, "New job, you need to go to the scene, it's a commission from the police."

After he finished speaking, he paused and looked at the people in the office.

The Nakadō class was the same as usual, with only two people in the office including Tomoya Aki, and the Misumi class, well, there was no recorder, but there were also two people.

"Doctor Misumi, can I ask your class to go? If possible, can Amami-kun also help?"

"Hey, this is probably a murder scene, is that ok?"

As soon as the director finished speaking, Tokai Lin Xizi asked.

UDI's budget is shared by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare on the one hand and the National Police Agency on the other, so if there is an official commission, there is no room for negligence.

The police's commission is most likely related to the murder case.

And we still have to go to the scene, but it’s hard to say what the situation is like there.

Before coming to UDI, these people were all experienced and were accustomed to all kinds of murder scenes and deaths of all kinds.

Although Tomoya Aki had only been there for a week and had quickly gotten used to the working environment at UDI, it was still his first time to work at a crime scene.

“…I am mentally prepared.”

Aki Tomoya thought about it and nodded.

As a real man, he won't back down from the battlefield.

"He's a very reliable little man, isn't he, Mikoto?"

Tokai Lin Yuko looked at Aki Tomoya with admiration.

She hates those kind of pampered boys, and this new part-time worker in the institute is performing very well so far.

Misumi Mikoto nodded with a subtle expression, and turned to look at Aki Tomoya and kindly reminded him: "If you feel uncomfortable, you must speak up immediately. Also, be careful, the remains are very dangerous, and the same goes for the murder scene!"

This earnest reminder gave him a shot of prevention in advance.

At this time, Director Kamikura Yasuo began to explain the known situation: "In Nishi Musashi, someone found two large black plastic bags with blood on the edge of a lake, so they called the police. The police contacted us and said it was a dismemberment case and they needed our assistance."

The dismemberment case...

Aki Tomoya's eyelids twitched and he began to comfort himself in his heart.

This doesn't seem to be an ordinary excitement.

He rubbed his eyes, swallowed silently, and became a little nervous.

Such a reaction is not surprising in the eyes of others. After all, this is a very exciting thing for the newlyweds, and the scene will only be more exciting.

"It's okay. Doctor Zhongtang said that when a person dies, they will just be a pile of meat when cut open. Just think of it as having been cut open in advance..."

Tomoya Aki comforted himself in this way.

You know what, I feel a little better now.

After that, they each put on their UDI uniforms and followed the two women from the Sancheng class. He also noticed how calm their expressions were, and they were even chatting about other things while walking.

"Unfortunately, there is no Conan or Kindaichi in the real world, so we will have to work hard."

Tokai Lin Xizi turned around and smiled at him.

Misumi Mikoto said in the same tone: "Conan-kun, wherever you go, people will die. That's not good."

Influenced by them, Akitomo also began to relax.
