I'm in Teresin, dedicated to playing badly

Furthermore, since this was something that Alice herself caused, even if she had any grievances or complaints, it was all her own doing and he couldn't be blamed.

Moreover, although Alice experienced feelings of shyness such as blushing afterward.

But Shinji Kitahara thought that with Alice's rational way of thinking and Frankenstein's thick skin, she probably wouldn't care too much about such superficial things, and might even just pretend nothing happened tomorrow.

After all, she usually acts like she doesn't care about such things, and after a while, when she returns to normal, she might even use this to tease him or threaten him into trying drugs or something.

Shinji Kitahara thinks so.

But is this really the case?

Alice didn't know.

Because she has now lost even the energy to think.

After the effects of the medicine completely wore off and her thoughts and consciousness returned to normal, the scenes that had just occurred began to echo in her mind.

Confessions, playful teasing, hugs, and even that final kiss...

What did she do?

Her mind was blank, incapable of any further thought, and she buried her head in the sand like an ostrich.

The problem is that no matter how much she tries to pretend that everything just now was an illusion, the scent on her body, the warmth from her ankles, and the lingering taste of him on her lips and teeth are all constant reminders of the inescapable reality.

In this state, she was not able to think, and she didn't even react when Shinji Kitahara finished the rest of the nursing work.

Compared to the stimulation in my mind, the sensations in my legs were insignificant.

—Of course, the main reason is that Shinji Kitahara's methods afterward reverted to the level he used in the basic match, and even weakened.

After all that had just happened, he was worried that there might still be residue from the drug, and he was also concerned about Alice's ability to handle it, so he didn't dare to go too far.

After the nursing work was over, a voice kept telling me, "Why don't you do it?" "I'm giving you a chance, don't be a useless fool." "I'd rather find a guinea pig than you."

But Alice remained motionless, simply curling up silently and covering her head with a pillow.

Then, nothing was said that night.

In the darkness, the sound of a tongue constantly sliding across the lips could be heard.

Is this what guinea pig tastes like...?

......

When they met again the next day, Alice Soko reverted to her previous behavior after the basic match, refusing to acknowledge Kitahara Shinji.

Shinji Kitahara wasn't surprised, but he felt somewhat helpless.

Damn it, you caused this mess yourself, and before the victim has even said anything, she's already getting upset.

The other members of the team naturally noticed the unusual interaction between the two and cast curious glances their way.

In particular, Donghai Emperor, who had some suspicions about the previous basic competition incident, took advantage of a break in training to come and find him. During their casual conversation, he 'inadvertently' mentioned Alice's performance and asked him if he knew anything about it.

"Ah, this."

Shinji Kitahara remained calm and composed as he spoke.

"She tried to play a trick on me last night with her new drug, but she didn't test the side effects properly beforehand and messed up the experiment, and that's how this happened."

It was an experimental accident.

Upon hearing this answer, the rest of the team stopped worrying about it.

After all, this isn't the first or second time that something has gone wrong with the Alice experiments. Sometimes it happens three or four times a month, and sometimes it happens once every two months. Everyone's gotten used to it.

However, most of the time it was others, especially the trainers, who suffered. Although it was rare for her to have an accident, it did happen, so everyone quickly accepted this explanation.

As for what exactly the accident was, judging from Alice's behavior, everyone could guess that it was probably something that was not easy to tell others, so they tacitly refrained from asking further.

So, on the surface, the matter was dropped.

While things seem to have passed on Alice's side, things on Kitahara Shinji's side have only just begun.

Kazuya Hisado...?

As he murmured the name to himself, Shinji Kitahara's expression became somewhat conflicted.

He was thinking about how he should investigate this person next.

Do it yourself? Probably not.

He's not a professional, and the fact that the chairman entrusted him to investigate related matters has already spread among the trainers. He's inappropriate in terms of both ability and status.

The chairman and a cuckold? That's not appropriate either.

Putting everything else aside, Hisato Kazuya has been at Tressen headquarters for nearly twenty years. In terms of seniority, he is even more senior than the two of them. In fact, the two of them received help from each other when they first took office, and their friendship is quite deep.

As a newly hired trainer, it would be difficult to convince them of this without evidence, and it would also be easy for Hisadou Kazuya to become aware of it.

After all, the two sides have been dealing with each other for more than a year or two. If the chairman and Tsuna Sugawa have developed suspicions about him or even launched an investigation, he would easily discover the anomaly, and the situation might become difficult to handle.

Most importantly, after dealing with him for so many years, the chairman and Tsuna Suguru have never suspected him, which is enough to show that they don't have any key information, and Hisadou may even have been on guard against them all along.

Since the chairman and Green Hat are both unsuitable, the other trainers are even less likely to be suitable.

So Shinji Kitahara was caught in a dilemma, and even began to consider whether to seek help from reliable people outside the academy.

Just as he was struggling with this dilemma, a voice rang out.

"What's wrong, Trainer Kitahara? Have you run into some trouble?"

The voice sounded somewhat familiar, but not quite, and didn't seem malicious, so Shinji Kitahara answered instinctively.

"Ah, I am indeed thinking about some things, but..."

He paused halfway through his sentence.

Wait, that sound...

He turned his head and saw a familiar face that almost made his heart stop.

Student council president, symbolized by Rudolph.

She stood beside him, watching the East Sea Emperor training in the distance, a gentle smile on her lips.

Then, after noticing that Shinji Kitahara was looking at her, she turned to look at him and spoke.

"If you don't mind, perhaps you could tell me what's troubling you, and maybe I can help?"

"And I also happen to have something I'd like to discuss with you, Trainer Kitahara. If you have time, how about we find a place to talk?"

.......

A moment later, in the student council room.

Shinji Kitahara and Rudolf symbolically sit facing each other.

To be honest, if he had a choice, Shinji Kitahara really didn't want to have even the slightest connection with the symbol of Rudolf, and his first reaction upon hearing her question was to refuse.

But the problem was, in the next second, he suddenly realized that Rudolf was the most suitable person in the entire Treson Academy to investigate Hisadou Kazuya.

Although Hisato Kazuya has a deep network of connections, these connections are mainly with the chairman and trainers.

As for Ma Niang, although he had brought out quite a few over the years, a person's energy is limited, but Ma Niang's possessiveness is limitless.

In addition, he will graduate eventually, so he is not well-known among students and his influence is very limited. He also has no connection with Rudolf and the two have no friendship whatsoever.

So, despite his reluctance, he eventually accepted Rudolph's invitation and was led to the student council room by her.

Unlike last time, Rudolf Symbol did not have the same aggressive attitude this time; in fact, his attitude could be described as mild. Moreover, there were not only the two of them in the student council room, but also two other female students.

One of them was Narita Shirahito, an old acquaintance who had dealt with Kitahara Shinji several times before and had a band-aid on his nose. He was buried in a pile of documents and had a look of utter despair on his face.

The other one was a woman with short black hair, blue eyes, and a somewhat dignified air. She was currently working at her desk, processing the mountain of documents piled up around her at an astonishing speed.

Air Tank, that's her name.

Like Narita Shirahito, she is also the vice president of the student council, and together with Narita Shirahito, they are known as Rudolf's right-hand men.

Narita Shirahito is usually responsible for maintaining order and handling external emergencies because he is good at fighting, while Kiss is mostly by Rudolph's side, assisting with document processing and campus management.

Shinji Kitahara wasn't familiar with the air tank, so he just gave it a brief greeting.

On the contrary, Narita Shirahito, seeing him arrive, immediately raised his head and his eyes lit up.

"Something happened again?"

As a fighter, she would rather go out and fight than drown in this pile of documents in front of her.

"No, and even if you were, Miss Junchuan is on duty, so it's not your turn to go out."

Rudolf symbolized that with a single sentence, he shattered Narita Shirahito's hope of getting out, and then turned to look at Kitahara Shinji.

"Trainer Kitahara, tell me about your problem."

Shinji Kitahara did not answer immediately, but remained silent for a moment before glancing at the air tank and Shirohito Narita.

Rudolf immediately understood his meaning.

"Is your question related to 'that'?"

Shinji Kitahara nodded.

Rudolf squinted his eyes, then turned to look at Narita Shirahito.

"Bai Ren, go outside and take a look. We're about to talk about something that's not really suitable for students to hear."

Although he was curious about what exactly this "thing that's not suitable for students to hear," Narita Shirahito got up and left the student council room without hesitation, and stood guard outside.

On the other side, the woman with short black hair also stopped writing and looked up.

"Qi Cao is my deputy. If you have any trouble and want to find me but I'm not here, you can go to her first. As long as it's not a big problem, she can usually help you handle it."

"As for Bai Ren, although she is not very good at handling normal affairs, you can consider contacting her if you encounter any emergencies or need military support. Both of them are trustworthy, so there is no need to worry."

Rudolf gave a symbolic explanation, then indicated to Kitahara Shinji that it was safe here and they could discuss 'those' questions.

Shinji Kitahara didn't hesitate and, after Rudolf signaled, lowered his voice and spoke.

"I'm thinking of investigating someone, but it might not be convenient for the chairman to do so."

"Who?"

"Kazuya Kudo."

The moment the name was uttered, the student council room fell silent.

Although Rudolf's symbol and the air trough have no connection with Hisato Kazuya.

But after all, Hisato Kazuya had been in Tressen for nearly twenty years, so they had certainly heard of his name and deeds.

"What's the reason?"

The air tank next to him frowned.

As Rudolf's right-hand woman, whose status was basically equivalent to that of Tsuna, the chairman's right-hand woman, she naturally knew the truth about the Black Forest incident, which made her even more puzzled.

"As far as I know, Treson has very strict vetting and control over trainers, and..."

Rudolf raised his hand, interrupting her as she spoke, and looked at Shinji Kitahara with a serious expression.

"Tell me what information you need."

Huh? That was surprisingly quick?

Shinji Kitahara didn't expect Rudolf to agree so readily, after all, in his memory, she didn't seem to have a very good impression of him.

But this was a serious matter, and according to rumors, Rudolf rarely let personal feelings interfere with his decisions, so he didn't think much of it and spoke up directly.

"The most important thing is his whereabouts, especially the date he left the academy and where he went, and not just for a day or two, but for the past few years."

"Secondly, examine his interpersonal relationships, not just within the school, but more importantly outside of it, to see if he has been in contact with any strange people."

"Thirdly, there's the flow of funds. I know he often donates anonymously, which might be difficult to investigate, so I'm not insisting on it. It would be best if we could find out, but it's okay if we can't."

He paused, then added.

"However, these are the needs I can think of right now. As for the remaining information, I can't guarantee whether it will be used in the future. So if possible, I hope to collect as much information as possible, and the more complete and detailed the better."

After hearing his words, Rudolf did not immediately agree. He remained silent for a while before slowly speaking.

"Yes, but I can't guarantee that I can find all the information you need. I can only say I'll do my best."

Their whereabouts are fine, and their interpersonal relationships can be learned from the students, but as for the flow of funds, if we want to investigate, we would probably have to use some of the resources of the family.

But as mentioned before, due to his poor relationship with the symbol of speed, Rudolf's connection with the symbolists has not been very close for several years, only recently has it improved.
