Although Kurosaki Yoshihiro is the third-ranked figure in the Teiai Group, he is nothing more than a lackey of the Hyoudou family. If he wants to fight against Hyoudou Takako, it would be an absolute rebellion and would involve great risks. It would definitely be a huge gamble.

So he must have important supporters behind him.

Similarly, because this matter is a matter of life and death, he cannot tell others casually. At least Sagihara Masao should not be qualified to know.

Then we can only guess.

According to common sense, the people that Kurosaki Yoshihiro relies on are either from outside, that is, the mortal enemies of the Teiai Group; or from inside, that is, people in the Hyodo family who are very dissatisfied with Hyodo Takako.

There is too little information available to know which one it is.

but……

Maybe it's really someone from the Hyoudou family?

This is not an unfounded guess. As Hyoudou Kazutomu's health condition deteriorates day by day, the dispute over the Hyoudou family's inheritance will certainly become more intense. Isn't it for this purpose that Hyoudou Takako put aside his pride and came to cooperate with me?

From this background, it seems very normal that someone within the Hyodo family colluded with Kurosaki Yoshihiro to find dirt on Takako.

No, it should be, this is inevitable!

That’s why Kurosaki Yoshihiro has the courage to rise up against Hyoudou Takako—because he has the support of other members of the Hyoudou family!

The more Jun Mogami thought about it, the more it made sense to him, and finally it all clicked for him.

He had no way of being sure that this was 100% the truth, but it was the best guess to explain the current situation.

All the intelligence lines have been connected.

He trusts his own judgment.

So, if this is true, what should we do?

He couldn't figure this out for the time being.

But it doesn't matter. At least the chairman can still withstand the pressure from Kurosaki Yoshihiro. He still has some time to make a decision, so there is no need to make a decision in a hurry.

He has no good feelings towards either Kurosaki Yoshihiro or Hyoudou Takako, and he has no psychological burden no matter whose business is ruined in the end.

He interrupted his complicated thoughts and looked back at Sagihara Masao who was lying on the ground.

Then, he picked up the phone that Masao Sagihara dropped and tried to call Koichi Sakai again from the call log.

However, this time the call could not be connected as Mitsui Sakai's phone had been turned off.

I don’t know if he will contact me next time.

Just at this moment, there was another soft knock on the door.

"Chun-chan, I'm back!" Zhenyou's voice then reached his ears.

To reassure him, she added, "It's just Yuzu-chan!"

Jun Mogami opened the door and let Mayu in.

Zhenyou came in with a bunch of desserts and snacks, and also brought a bottle of mineral water.

But of course she would not feed the middle-aged man herself. She glanced at him with disgust and put the food on the table.

Mogami Jun didn't move either, and the two of them looked as if it had nothing to do with them.

In the end, Hirofumi Hanyu had no choice but to sigh, pick up the food, walk to the side of Masao Saginahara, then squat down to help feed him.

Because Sagihara Masao's hands were tied, he carefully opened the food packages and unscrewed the caps of the water bottles.

Sagihara Masao, who had been hungry for a long time, no longer cared about his image. He lay on the ground and gobbled the food voraciously, almost devouring it in a whirlwind.

He finished eating quickly, and by this time, it was already dark outside.

"Let's stop here for today," said Jun Mogami.

"Well, it's time to go back." Hanyu Hirofumi also nodded.

So Jun Mogami blocked Sagihara Masao's mouth and stuffed him under the table just like he did at the beginning. After making sure that he couldn't escape, the three of them walked out the door together.

Although they all appeared calm on the surface, the expressions of the three people were somewhat solemn, and they all had their own thoughts.

After walking out of the auditorium, Hanyu Hirofumi, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke again.

"Mogami, can you listen to me for a few words?"

"Please go ahead?" Jun Mogami nodded.

"Let's not talk about how we should end this... First of all, I don't think we can keep him here forever." As if he had made up his mind, Hanyu Hirofumi spoke slowly and firmly, "I told you before, this is a very dangerous and violent crime! Can we continue like this?"

"I haven't denied it," Mogami Jun replied calmly, "but now that I've done it, there's no room for regret, right?"

"It's not that there is no room for maneuver. At least there is still a chance to end it. It just depends on whether you really want to end it." Hanyu Hirofumi raised his voice, "You can leave everything to the chairman, he will help you handle it! You just want to use this person now."

"So? Is there anything about him that deserves pity?" Mogami Jun asked back.

"I don't feel sorry for him, so I didn't say anything just now. I waited until everyone came out before I spoke out." Hanyu Hirofumi did not back down. "But even if he is a big villain, you can't let yourself degenerate into a criminal, right? You were so cruel just now that it was scary. It was like you were a different person--"

"Then you're probably mistaken. I've always been like this, but I just don't show it." Mogami Jun sneered, "So, class leader, are you going to report me?"

"I... I don't want to report you, but... I can't just sit there and watch this happen in front of me." Hanyu Hirofumi replied with some pain, "So, I beg you, don't go on."

Mogami Jun didn't answer.

Things have come to this point now, it’s impossible to stop just like that.

"Class leader, as Jun-chan's friend, how could you betray Jun-chan?" Mayu looked at Hanyu Hirofumi with an unconvinced look on her face.

"He did such a terrible thing, can I just turn a blind eye? Do you want to watch him keep him here? This person's physical condition is already very bad, if he dies here, how will it end?" Hanyu Hirofumi asked. "So, isn't it better to stop now while there is still time?"

"Chun-chan, this is for everyone's good. So what if it's a crime?" Zhenyou said nonchalantly, "Anyway...anyway, no matter what, Youyou will support Chun-chan. If...if you dare to report Chun-chan, Youyou...Youyou will never forgive you! And I will do everything I can to get back at you! I will make you regret it!"

Although her threat seemed to have no lethal power, Hirofumi Hanyu was choked and speechless, and in the end he could only smile bitterly and lower his head.

But it was clear that he had not changed his mind.

"Okay, stop arguing!" Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Mogami Jun had no choice but to interrupt them.

Even though Hanyu Hirofumi is causing him trouble now, he is not angry.

Hirofumi Hanyu's reaction is very consistent with his personality, and it can even be said that he is normal. The "abnormal" ones are him and Mayu.

Given the monitor's personality, it's not easy for him to endure until now.

Besides, for someone who has not yet entered society, facing such a shocking scene is something he is not used to and cannot bear to do.

Not everyone can smash someone's head with a baseball bat without hesitation like him.

His opinion actually made some sense. Having Sagihara Masao in his hands was both an opportunity and a hot potato that had to be dealt with.

He still needs the other person now, so he can't have a falling out with him.

To put it more clearly - he needs help, and Hanyu Hirofumi is the most reliable helper he has found so far. It would be not worth it to fall out over such a small matter.

So, compromise, what Hanyu Hirofumi needs is a compromise.

"Don't worry, class leader. Although I am sometimes braver than ordinary people, I don't want to become a murderer at such a young age. I know my limits. You can not believe in my morality but at least you should believe in my reason." Mogami Jun said while chuckling, "So, let's make a promise-"

"What agreement?" Hanyu Hirofumi was a little confused.

"Give me three days. During these three days, you must not report him and try your best to cooperate with me. After three days, no matter what the result is, I will hand over Sagihara Masao—" Mogami Jun said in one breath. "For the sake of our friendship, I will let your conscience rest for three days. Is this request not too much?"

Hanyu Hirofumi fell silent.

"Think about it carefully. Don't you hate Hyoudou Takako? Now the best opportunity is in front of us. As long as we work hard, we may be able to get evidence of her guilt. Then we will have a chance! Didn't you always want to stop her? Then why are you backing off now?!" Mogami Jun continued to persuade, "Yes, I know that my current methods are not fair, but do you think anyone can rely on fair means to fight against Hyoudou Takako?"

His questioning left Hanyu Hirofumi speechless.

Because Hanyu Hirofumi knew that what he said was right.

The dilemma left him at a loss as to how to answer.

But Jun Mogami knew what choice he would make.

"Okay..." After a moment, Hanyu Hirofumi sighed, "Then for three days, I will remain silent and do as you say. If you don't send Sagihara Masao away after three days, I will have no choice but to report it."

"Well, okay, let's do it." Jun Mogami stretched out his hand.

Hanyu Hirofumi hesitated for a moment, then shook his hand.

"So what should we do next?" Hanyu Hirofumi asked again.

"No matter what, let's find Sakai Koichi first. He must be hiding now. He's the only one who has that thing." Mogami Jun answered immediately. "Didn't you follow him before? It's time to look for him again."

"I'll find it. Let's keep in touch." Hanyu Hirofumi nodded.

"Goodbye." Jun Mogami waved his hand.

"Goodbye." Hirofumi Hanyu left with a heavy heart and gradually disappeared with a heavy back.

"Jun-chan..." After he walked away, Mayu called out to Jun Mogami in a low voice.

"What's wrong, Yuzu-chan?" asked Jun Mogami.

"Yuzu-chan will help you find him too." Shinyu raised her right hand, clenched her fist with great energy, and looked at Mogami Jun with a smile on her face, "No matter what, Yuzu-chan is on your side! The squad leader's boring ideas are really annoying. Obviously, Jun-chan's actions are all correct!"

Although the current situation is definitely not relaxing, and Jun Mogami himself cannot be sure that he is right, but looking at her smile, Jun Mogami couldn't help but feel inexplicably relaxed.

"Thank you, Yuzu-chan."

"Let's work hard together!" Zhenyou also excitedly held his hand.

286, Persistence

"Let's work hard together!"

Mayu wasn't just talking casually. Ever since she made the agreement with Mogami Jun, she started to act with full enthusiasm.

Since that night, Koichi Sakai has not come to school.

However, because he had been taking sick leave frequently recently, his absence from school this time did not cause much of a stir, and his classmates had already gotten used to his disappearance.

Mayu mobilized the people around him to look for Sakai Koichi's whereabouts, but found nothing.

She once asked someone to visit him, but of course Mitsui Sakai was not at home. Even his parents didn't know where he had gone for the time being. They only knew that he had called and said that he was not feeling well and needed to find a place to rest.

Finally, her eyes fell on her lover, Rino Honda.

According to common sense, given their relationship, even if Sakai Koichi wanted to hide, he should have revealed a few words to her.

So, at noon the next day, she took the initiative to look for Honda Rino.

Originally, Honda Rino was considered a good friend of Shinyu, at least she had always been admiring her. However, due to various reasons recently, the interactions between the two have decreased dramatically, and they have almost become strangers.

However, this is not a problem for Zhenyou. When needed, they become "good friends" again.

In the cafeteria, Mayu found Honda Rino.

Originally, she and Mitsui Sakai often sat together to eat, and they were a happy couple, but now she was alone, and her face looked very ugly, as if she was absent-minded.

Even though Mayu never cared about other people's feelings, he couldn't help but feel a little bit of pity when he saw Honda Rino's current appearance.

However, she quickly put this feeling of pity behind her, put on a smile, and moved closer to Honda Rino.

"Rino-chan~" She greeted quietly and kindly, then sat down next to her.

"Ha...!" Honda Rino reacted very strongly and almost jumped up. After she turned around suddenly and found that it was Shinyu, she calmed down a little.

Of course, her expression became even uglier than before.

"It's... it's you. What's the matter?"

"Rino-chan, why do you treat Yuzu-chan so coldly?" Zhenyu opened her eyes innocently, "Aren't we friends?"

"We are no longer friends..." Honda Rino had seen many of Mayu's cuteness, so she had developed some resistance and didn't buy into it. "I'm not in a good mood right now, please stop bothering me, okay?"

"Hey... what's your attitude?!" Fujiyoshi Ayami, who came with Zhenyu, got angry when she heard it, "It's rare for Yuzu-chan to come to you, is this appropriate?"

"I don't owe her anything, why should I be so respectful to her?" Honda Rino replied impatiently, "By the way, I originally approached Takasaki Mayu just to join in the fun. Now that I've retired from the circle, there's no reason for me to keep praising Mayu, right?"

Being treated with contempt in such a manner, a hint of anger flashed in Zhenyou's eyes, but she quickly concealed it.

"It's okay. Rino-chan has been in a bad mood recently and spoke a little harshly. Everyone can understand that. As a friend, Yuzu-chan has the obligation to help Rino-chan cheer up~" she continued with a smile on her face.

"Hmph." Honda Rino didn't want to say anything more. She glanced at Mayu coldly, then packed up her plates and wanted to leave.

"Li~no~chan~can you stay a little longer?" Zhenyou said slowly. "You-chan, I have something else to ask you~"

When she was trying to persuade her to stay, Fujiyoshi Ayami suddenly reached out and grabbed Honda Rino's hand, turning Mayu's attempt to stay into a forced one.
