The sun was shining outside the window, and there was a hint of revival in the morning air, which was the breath of spring.

"It's another day of peace."

Yuriko doesn't really like such a dull day.

Born into a family of businessmen, she received her master's degree from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania at the age of eighteen, and by the age of twenty she was already a well-known broker on Wall Street.

Wall Street is a fast-paced place, where brokers and speculators move from exchange to exchange, and the curse of greed and madness pervades every space on Wall Street, constantly creating wealth for others and constantly depriving others of their wealth. There, every minute and every second of time is full of tension and excitement, and if you don't pay attention, you may become a target who will be eaten alive by capital.

Bed City is a different story, a city that is so plain that there are almost no waves. The city is a satellite city of Tokyo, which has gradually developed as a residential area, and there are hardly any major industries and businesses here, in fact, most of the residents work in Tokyo, and when the busy commute is over, the city suddenly falls silent, as if most of the people have disappeared.

Since marrying her husband, Yuriko has lived the life of a housewife like the traditional Yamato Nadeshiko, and even Wall Street's investments have gradually been handed over to other brokers. Although she sometimes attends some social-style drinking parties, most of the time, Yuriko watches her daughter go to school as she did this morning, and starts her day with the most uneventful.

Although I am not dissatisfied with my current life, I occasionally think about what it would be like if I had not married my current husband and continued to live in my own life.

Hehe, maybe it's a Wall Street giant now. Of course, then there will be no lovely daughter born.

"Ma'am."

The maid's voice interrupted Yuriko's thoughts.

"There's an invitation for you."

Yuriko turned her head and raised her delicate eyebrows slightly.

The Gao Cheng family, as a famous family in the bed master city, will inevitably receive some invitations to drinking parties with other families, even if it is for the purpose of inviting her, the letter will be handed in the name of inviting the Gao Cheng family, and the letter directly specifying the invitation to her like this will generally not be there again after marriage.

It's a matter of etiquette.

Maybe it's someone I've known on Wall Street before. If you're a foreigner, you won't necessarily understand the underlying rules.

Thinking so, Yuriko took the invitation from the maid.

The invitation is made of pure black tones, and if it weren't for the gold pattern trim on the edges, it would be easy to mistake it for a funeral invitation. A peony pattern is painted in gold on the front, and although some traditional families will stamp their own emblems on the letters, Yuriko has the impression that none of them use gold peonies as their coat of arms.

What puzzled Yuriko even more was the content of the invitation.

There is only one line of Chinese characters on it.

"Do you want to get rid of the ordinary routine and feel a new life?"

There is no purpose, no address, and no name of the inviter.

"Filial piety is a fool! Big stupid! ”

Cursing in my heart for the sluggishness of my childhood sweetheart, Miyamoto Litou left the classroom without looking back.

Although it was already school day, most of the students remained on campus for club activities, except for those in the "Home Department".

As an excellent student of character and learning, Miyamoto Rei is naturally in her own club. Not only that, but she is also the main force of her own "spearmanship department", and has achieved good results in national competitions.

But in fact, after the start of this school year, she has not been to the club once.

As the main general, Miyamoto Rei naturally knows how much impact it will have on club activities.

Don't want to...... Still don't dare?

But she really didn't know how to deal with the inquiries of other people, especially those who had been in the same grade as her.

Although it is rumored that she repeats a grade in order to spend school life with her childhood sweetheart, Takashi Komuro, this is not the case. Rather, because her father, who is a police officer, is collecting evidence about the crimes of the City Council Wisteria, the other party asks his son, who works at the school, to give his father a warning by asking her to repeat a grade.

Knowing that now, Miyamoto Rei still remembers the scene when her father knelt in front of her and said sorry after receiving the notice to repeat a grade.

And what made her even more unbearable was the sluggishness and coldness shown by her childhood sweetheart Komuro Takashi in this matter.

"That's enough."

When the girl opened the shoe cabinet and was about to change her shoes and go home, she suddenly found that there was a pink envelope in the shoe cabinet.

Love letter?

As a beautiful girl with good looks and figure, Miyamoto Rei often finds this kind of letter in the shoe cabinet, but because of Komuro Takashi, she never looks at it and goes directly into the trash.

But this time, the girl miraculously put the envelope in her school bag.

She couldn't tell why, maybe she was curious, maybe she just wanted to take revenge on the sluggish Xun Youran.

Then he hid in a no-man's corner and opened the letter, but it was not an imaginary love letter, but a black invitation.

***

The health room at Fuji Bien Garden is small, with only one bed in a small room, and a medicine cabinet full of various medicines.

Shizuka Jukawa looked at the list of medicines in distress.

Although compared to the doctors who work in the hospital, the school doctor is a relatively easy job. However, because she is the only professional, she is responsible for all kinds of things, and the workload is still quite large.

Fortunately, the students of our school are more self-conscious, and it is rare for them to pretend to be sick in order not to go to the course.

"What a headache. Are there so many documents that need to be signed? ”

Tilting her head, Shizuka Jukawa let out a distressed sigh.

"Wouldn't you be able to go to Tokyo today? Ahhh~, obviously there are new shoes on the market. ”

Suddenly, the twenty-seven-year-old unmarried female school doctor seemed to think of something and took out her phone from the drawer.

"Call Rika and ask her to help!"

But when the number was dialed, the female school doctor put down the phone in frustration.

"Rika seems to say that she is going to go out in a short time......"

"Really, can you please keep it for me. But in this way, it can't be regarded as the first time to buy. ”

The female school doctor lay on the table weakly, and suddenly her whole head was almost buried in the super front armor of 108J.

Throughout, the female school doctor didn't seem to have any idea of hurrying to work.

Naturally, she didn't find any black invitations in the thick papers.

***

It's already dark.

In the city of Bedlord, where there is no nightlife, the streets are unusually quiet at this time, and there are hardly any pedestrians in sight, and the dim street lamps make the darkness of the places where the light does not shine, making people unconsciously guess whether there is some unknown danger hidden in the darkness that cannot be seen.

Only his own footsteps could be heard on the long and remote street, and Poison Island could feel his heart beating more violently, and he couldn't help but clench the wooden knife in his hand hard.

Four years ago, she was attacked by a man while walking on this street at night.

Of course, she didn't lose, after all, she was the heir of the kendo celebrity Poison Island Dojo, and she was still carrying a wooden knife at that time.

In the end, the man's shoulder blades and thighs were broken by her wooden knife......

Since that time, she has often been alone in this way at night from this remote path.

She had been expecting more than once that the same thing would happen on this path again.

Looking forward to finding a clear presence that can be attacked again.

Yes, her heartbeat wasn't speeding up with fear, it was excitement with anticipation.

That night, knowing that she had an overwhelming advantage with a wooden knife in her hand, she pretended to be afraid to lure the other party into further action, and then attacked without hesitation.

The moment of swinging the knife is an incomparable pleasure.

It's as if something that has been hidden inside has been released.

From that moment on, she knew that was the true nature of herself, Poison Island Tsuneko.

Be intoxicated by power and remain silent in it.

It was not a normal mood, and despite the painful realization of it, the pleasure of finding a definite enemy bound her body like an invisible chain, preventing her from repeating that night's actions on her own.

Yet, nothing happened, just like every quiet and peaceful night in the past.

(What the hell was I expecting?) ）

Opening the door of the house, the soft waiting made the son feel an inexplicable disgust.

Not to others, but to herself.

"I'm back."

Habitually said hello, but received no response. This is a matter of course, since her only relative, her father, went to the dojo abroad, and the family has been her own.

Suddenly, on the floor of the entrance, a black letter with gold trim entered Tsuko's field of vision.

She remembered very well, and she clearly remembered that there was nothing here before she went out.

***

Jingle bells, the sound of the alarm clock rings.

Saya Takashiro looked up, ten o'clock in the evening.

It's time to go to bed.

Over the years, she has maintained a good habit of going to bed early and waking up early.

Saya stretched in her chair and prepared to turn off her computer.

Suddenly, a window pops up on the screen.

"Want to understand the meaning of life? Want to ...... Alive? ”

Hacking? Or is it a new type of computer virus?

As a young lady, it is naturally impossible for her to go to strange websites such as the Caribbean, and she has not downloaded anything strange recently.

However, Saya doesn't know much about computer technology. Although as a genius girl of IQ180, as long as she is willing to use computer technology, it is not easy to master, but because of her family, her learning direction is more to finance, interpersonal relationships and other aspects.

(Forget it, find someone to fix it tomorrow.) ）

After fiddling with it for a while, and finding that there was no way to close this strange window, Saya directly chose to give up.

Force shutdown.

She still knows this kind of superficial thing, as long as her finger presses the power switch for a long time, the power supply will cut off.

However, after a few minutes, the computer still did not respond.

Miss Saya-sama couldn't help but get a little angry.

How dare a computer do this...... Could it be that a genius girl like her is still afraid of her.

The genius beautiful girl reached directly under the table and unplugged the power.

However, as if it was specifically to anger her, the computer that was unplugged was still on.

"Don't take me for a fool......"

The eldest lady grabbed the mouse angrily and clicked NO without hesitation on the YES/NO option under the line of text.

There was no response on the computer.

Shaya was immediately amused.

"Miss Ben, let's see what tricks you can play."

She moved the pointer over YES and clicked it.

In an instant, the genius beautiful girl of IQ180 lost consciousness......
