I went all in on Group C

...Forget it, he is a passionate young man now and is too lazy to waste his brain cells.

As long as he performs at his normal level and is killed by Gao Songdeng, Ye Mu will naturally not be able to bear it and choose to take action himself.

As the saying goes, the less ability you have, the less responsibility you have!

Even if Ye Mu wants to settle accounts with him, he has to get rid of the devil Gao Songdeng first!

Come on, Takamatsu Deng, the future of the earth and the destiny of mankind are protected by you!

Step on my corpse and defeat the witch!

With a peaceful expression as if he had accepted death, Ito Kaiji didn't think or calculate at all. He just hugged Wakaba Mutsu and said casually in accordance with his character as a hot-blooded young man.

"Best friend, Mutou didn't mean it in a literal sense. She meant that she is like Lianlian, always by my side listening to my troubles."

"In fact, the reason she was willing to return to Crychic was because Sushi-san and I persuaded her parents so that she could meet more friends with us."

"I believe that one day, she will be able to show the brightest smile because of us, her friends!"

After roughly revealing the situation on Wakaba Mu's side, Ito Kaiji began to wait for death. No matter what tricks Takamatsu Deng would use later, he promised not to launch any counterattack!

Takamatsu Touma, who was placed with high hopes, was now struggling to absorb the information given by Ito Kaiji.

First of all, Wakaba Mutsu would always stay by Ito Kaiji's side and listen to his troubles.

This happened because he persuaded Wakaba Mu's parents to bring a smile to Wakaba Mu's face.

If I understand it this way, there should be no problem, right?

In Takamatsu Deng's impression, she seemed to have only seen Wakaba Mu smile once... No, to be precise, not even once.

At that time, Ruo Ye Mu deliberately covered her mouth with her hands, so her smile could not be seen at all.

It's no wonder that Ruo Yemu said she never felt happy in the band. After all...

Under what circumstances would you deliberately hide your smile?

Gao Songdeng couldn't figure out this problem, nor did he want to understand it.

She understood only two things.

1: It is extremely difficult, almost impossible, to make Ruoye Mu show the brightest smile.

2: Even so, Ito Kaiji still brought Wakaba Mutsu back [for her]!

And it must have cost a huge price. After all... she had seen it with her own eyes, her parents negotiating with her classmates' parents and asking them to forgive them.

Then look at the handcuffs on Ito Kaiji's hands, and his uncomplaining attitude towards Wakaba Mutsu, and his somewhat fearful expression...

In order to resurrect Crychic, for his own sake, he had to do this. Was it really worth it?

...I don’t know, but... Gao Songdeng’s heart felt both bitter and warm at this moment.

Because this shows that Ito Kaiji is serious about his lifelong vow.

She wanted to help Ito Kaiji. They were obviously partners, and it was impossible for Ito Kaiji to be the only one to make the sacrifice!

But what should she do?

His sight began to wander, and finally, it fixed on Nagasaki Suyo, who had a complicated expression on her face.

Although... Nagasaki Suyo is a traitor, since she is willing to come to her house to help her with her summer homework, she should have turned over a new leaf, right?

Then... try asking her for help.

When we were in Crychic, if the mainstay Toyokawa Shoko was not around, it was usually Nagasaki Motoyo who took care of everyone and shared their worries.

Walking towards Nagasaki Suyo, Takamatsu Deng also imitated Wakaba Mutsu and sat in her arms.

He lowered his head and asked in a low voice.

"Sushi, are we...partners again?"

“…Of course~”

"Then...what should I do so that the handcuffs on Kaiji's hands become mine?"

"……what?"

Sometimes, Nagasaki Suyo would feel that her brain was not enough. It was usually filled with amazing wisdom, but whenever she met Takamatsu Touma, she would always encounter situations that she could not understand.

What does it mean to [let the handcuffs on Kaiji's hands become hers]?

Is this an attempt at robbery or theft?

Gao Songdeng, it turns out you are still Fat Tiger. Other people’s things are your things, right?

...Okay, okay, no more jokes. After Nagasaki Suyo used her amazing wisdom, she was able to understand Takamatsu Deng's thoughts.

She probably felt that it was too pitiful for Kaiji Ito to be handcuffed, so she wanted to help him remove the handcuffs, and then she would become the prisoner instead.

Alas... the real thing is the real thing. She thought that Takamatsu Deng would fight with Wakaba Mutsu over a stone and get a bloody head, but it turned out that Takamatsu Deng actually wanted to help Ito Kaiji get freedom.

Really, everyone is so kind, doesn't this make her look even darker...

But there is no problem in helping Ito Kaiji gain freedom.

Well, let her amazing wisdom be used to think about how to help others.

Judging from the situation in the morning, Ito Kaiji felt that the handcuffs were a necessary punishment, and it would definitely not work to let Takamatsu Deng take the blame.

He won't agree to suffer together.

Then... the only way to replace him is to commit a greater crime than Ito Kaiji, right?

...Damn it, if I tell Takamatsu Deng about this idea, wouldn't that be inciting crime?!

What happened to her incredible intelligence? Is it that she can only think of thoughts that hurt others?!

There must be other ways!

His gaze began to move, and finally, it stopped at the cucumber Band-Aids on Ito Kaiji's arm.

……

PS: Current bounty progress: 20/10000 cat biscuits.

21/100 blade.

Chapter 90: Compensation for Xiao Mu.

As Nagasaki Suyo lowered her head, she looked at the blue octopus Band-Aid on her arm, and then looked at the cucumber Band-Aid on Wakaba Mutsu's arm, which was the same as Ito Kaiji's.

An idea begins to appear uncontrollably.

Those cucumber band-aids are such an eyesore, even more so than the handcuffs. I really want them off.

As this thought flashed through her mind, an idea began to vaguely emerge in Nagasaki Suyo's mind.

If... let Takamatsu Deng tear off all these Band-Aids and throw them into the trash can under the pretext of wanting to change the pattern.

Afterwards, he asked Wakaba Mutsu to uncuff him first, using the excuse that it was inconvenient for Ito Kaiji to put a Band-Aid on him since he was handcuffed.

After that, all we need to do is have Takamatsu Deng put the handcuffs on first and refuse Wakaba Mu to remove them, and that'll be it, right?!

You know, handcuffs don't require a key when you put them on, they only need a key when you take them off!

one stone two bird!

In this way, the annoying Band-Aid on Ito Kaiji's hand was gone, and Takamatsu Touma's freedom was also restricted!

Sometimes, Nagasaki Suyo is afraid of her own talents!

How come I always come up with such great ideas?

By whispering these suggestions to Takamatsu Deng, Nagasaki Suyo successfully gained Takamatsu Deng's admiration for his high IQ and Takamatsu Deng's trust in his partners.

Looking at her extremely determined back after she stood up, Nagasaki Suyo also lamented the fickleness of fate.

Originally she came to unite with Mutsu to fight against Deng, but now it turned into a two-on-two battle between her and Takamatsu Deng VS Wakaba Mutsu and Ito Kaiji.

...Why is she standing on the opposite side of Ito Kaiji!

Damn it, this time she is in Dengying but her heart is with Kaisi, she will definitely go back!

But first, come on, Takamatsu Deng!

The future of the earth, the fate of mankind, and Kaisi's freedom all depend on you to protect!

Since it’s the real thing, let her see the power of the real thing!

Under Nagasaki Suyo's expectant gaze, Takamatsu Deng...left the living room without hesitation.

...Yes, she went to get a new Band-Aid, still thinking about what kind of Band-Aid to put on Ito Kaiji and herself.

Leaving behind where she was, Nagasaki Suyo smiled awkwardly at Ito Kaiji and Wakaba Mutsu, who were full of questions, looking calm and composed.

But inside, it was like a storm!

Why did Takamatsu Deng just leave her here?!

Instead, go tear off the Band-Aid and grab the handcuffs!

You're not really going to pick out a new Band-Aid, are you?!

That kind of stuff is not important at all!

...Forget it, it's easy to fix it with a Band-Aid. It's just a technical adjustment and we'll be back on track soon.

...hours later...

Looking at Wakaba Mutsu, who had already closed his eyes and was dozing off in his arms while letting Ito Kaiji sing a lullaby, Nagasaki Suyo's eyes were dead.

Gao Songdeng, where are you?!

It's just a Band-Aid, why does it take so long?!

Could it be that this Band-Aid is some kind of sealed artifact that requires the collection of four attributes to unlock?!

Wow... Why is she still staying here? She is the one who wants to be held in Ito Kaiji's arms and sung a lullaby!

Why did she have to watch the boy she secretly loved treat someone who had hurt her so intimately, and even have to keep a smile on her face?

She didn't want to laugh anymore, she wanted to cry!

You shouldn't have any trust in Takamatsu Deng!

Everyone in Crychic is an enemy!

She wanted to expel all the Crychic guys from her life, leaving no one behind!

Otherwise... she would have to keep looking at this scene!

"...Ahem, that's about it, Mutou, my voice is almost gone..."

He felt like he could hardly make a sound, but he was able to sing a lullaby continuously for almost an hour. Ito Kaiji felt like he was a superman.

I can only say that it's a good thing that the lullaby's tune is slow enough. If it were a faster tempo, Ito Kaiji felt that he would probably die here.

However, even a witch should understand sustainable development and give him a break, right?

"Here...drink it and continue."

When Wakaba Mutsu held the mango juice and handed the straw to his mouth, Ito Kaiji's eyes also died.

What a black-hearted boss!

If you don’t do your job, you are not a human being!

Tomorrow he will buy a sickle and hammer!

But tomorrow is tomorrow, and now, Ito Kaiji still wanted to struggle and made a small protest.

"I hate mango juice, hiss..."

He tried his best to suppress the urge to scream. Damn it, where did Ruo Yemu learn to twist his waist with his hands?

Damn it, he must twist it back tomorrow!

As for now, a real man can bend and stretch!

"How can there be something in this world as delicious as mango juice? It feels like I've drunk agar-agar dew. It's so mellow and rich, leaving a fragrant aftertaste on my cheeks, and the aftertaste is endless!"

"Ah, what if I can't drink something this delicious anymore? Mutou, you're so good to me!"
