Buzz –

The mobile phone vibrated in his pocket, and Morimi just moved his eyes and continued to work on the topic in front of him.

Ten minutes later, after making all four questions, she checked them again, and looked around the classroom again, seeing that most of the students were frowning and lowering their heads and still solving the problems, she had a little more smile on her face, and then took out her mobile phone to take a look.

Chunhai: I found a clue and went back first.

“……”

Clue?

Kazuha: Where did Naoko go?

Harumi: Yes.

Kazuha: Let me know when the results are available.

Harumi: Okay.

Putting away her phone, she thought about it for a while before refocusing her mind on the topic in front of her.

On the bus back, Naruse couldn't completely calm down anyway.

Hikaru Takikawa sat next to him and squeezed his hand, still remembering his excitement in the café just now.

["I remember—some time ago, I saw Naoko coming out of the post office, and she must have sent the puppet of the transaction to the buyer! ”】

Aoyagi's local post office is next to the convenience store, and where they pass every day, a single-family building with an orange sign that should be very conspicuous but is often overlooked by them — most of the time they don't use it.

"As long as you can get Naoko's shipping records, you can contact the buyer at the time, and you can ask Naoko's store." Naruse said.

"However, although the shipping information will be recorded in the post office, it should also be confidential information, and outsiders can't see it casually." Hikaru Takikawa asked.

He frowned and nodded, thought for a moment and said, "I'll go and deceive first." ”

"Huh?" Hikaru Takikawa and Starfish both looked over.

"The people at the post office should know me, right?" Naruse said, "Naoko has sent me things many times before, and I said that she sent them to the wrong address last time and wanted to contact the recipient to recover them. ”

The two looked at each other, and Hikaru Takikawa said again: "Brother Ishido is working at the post office now, he may be able to help." ”

"Brother Ishiwatari? Which Ishiwa? ”

"Chunhai doesn't remember, but also, he's a lot older than us." She looked at him, "The guy who got the stud in our ears when we were in elementary school." ”

“……”

Naruse was stunned for a moment, and soon had a clearer impression of the name Ishido in his mind.

"I remembered...... Is he still in Aoyagi. ”

"It's still there, it's better to say that I haven't left at all. But he shouldn't remember Harumi, I'll ask later. ”

"Okay."

The bus staggered and finally returned to Aoyagi, and the three of them got off the bus and went straight to the post office.

The Aoyagi Post Office, which is an independent building, has all the deserted post offices in the countryside, and when you walk inside, there is even only one person at the counter.

The young man inside raised his head and looked at the three high school students who suddenly broke in, and his eyes focused on Hikaru Takikawa, who was walking in front.

"Light?"

"Brother Ishiwatari." Hikaru Takikawa walked over, "Are you alone today?" ”

"yes."

He looked bored, "It's nothing to do anyway." In another hour, I'll be off work too. ”

"Is Brother Ishiwatari in charge of the post office now?"

"Pretty much." Ishido finally reacted, "What's the matter, is there something to do, do you want to send something?" ”

Hikaru Takikawa shook his head and pointed at Naruse again, "Does Brother Ishiwatari remember him?" ”

"Naruse's screenwriter and Matsu Chiaki's son, Harumi. I'm sitting here, watching you running around every day, and it's hard to remember. ”

Ishido looked at Naruse, "It's you, you shouldn't remember me, right?" ”

"Yes." Naruse smiled, "I still remember hiding in the cement pipe with Hikari and seeing Brother Ishiwatari making out with his girlfriend. ”

"Haha, stinky boy!"

After a short greeting, things became much simpler, and Naruse and Hikaru Takikawa directly explained their intentions, saying that they wanted to check Naoko's mailing records.

"In principle, this kind of record cannot be shown to outsiders......

Shi Watari glanced out the door, "I can only help you once, and I must not tell others." ”

"Never tell anyone." The trio gave assurances.

He sat back at the computer, tapped on the keyboard, searched for it, and soon found Naoko's mailing history.

"Hmm, Naoko has sent a lot of things to Harumi in the past few years......"

Naruse pursed her lower lip, "What about the latest shipping record." ”

"I'll see...... Well, it's a puppet that was sent to a guy in Tokyo called 'Cat Hero'. ”

He turned on the camera and handed the phone in.

“……”

Ishiwatari looked at him and muttered that if he was caught, he would definitely be finished, but he still took his phone and took a picture of the recipient's message on the screen.

"Thank you, Brother Ishiwatari."

"Alright. The best thank you can give me is when today's events never happened. ”

"I'll never talk to anyone." Naruse assured.

Getting his phone back, he walked out of the post office, and looked at the message of "Cat Hero" on the photo, and he took a deep breath.

"Are you going to call this person?" Hikaru Takikawa asked.

"Hmm."

He typed in the number, his hand clenched a little unconsciously, and then called the phone anyway.

After waiting for a while, the phone was connected, and a timid female voice came from inside.

"Who's ......"

"Hello, I'm ......"

"No, thank you."

Toot –

Naruse put down his phone and looked at the screen.

“……”

Hung up?

"What's wrong?" Hikaru Takikawa and Starfish looked at him.

"It's okay...... It seems to have taken me for telemarketing. ”

He called again, but this time the other party directly refused.

“……”

Trouble.

I didn't expect that the buyer's information was in hand, and he would encounter problems with this kind of step, and Naruse suddenly had a big head.

"I'll try." Hikaru Takikawa asked for the number and also made a call, but he was hung up as soon as he spoke.

"It seems to be the kind of girl who is very timid...... I'm in trouble. ”

Standing on the snowy street, Naruse was silent for a while, and then said, "I'll go to Tokyo and talk to her in person." ”

"Huh?"

Hikaru Takikawa and Starfish were stunned for a moment, "Why don't you go directly to Tokyo?" ”

"Hmm."

He nodded, then walked back, saying as he walked: "The other party is such a fearful character, even if she is willing to answer the phone, it will probably be difficult for her to understand what I mean on the phone." ”

"But it's so difficult to connect to the phone, are Harumi sure she's really willing to talk to you in person?"

He was silent for a moment and didn't look back, "As long as you can find where she lives, it's not too much of a problem for her to speak." ”

Hikaru Takikawa quickened his pace and grabbed his arm, "Harumi is thinking about that kind of unsightly method again, no." I'll go to Tokyo with you. ”

Naruse looked at her and quickly nodded, "Okay, Hikari come with me." ”

"I'm going too!" Starfish said immediately.

"We're not here to play."

"Maybe I can help with that."

Naruse stopped and looked back at the two of them.

"Then you go back and pack your bags now, and we'll take the night Shinkansen to Tokyo."

"Ah, let's go today." Starfish was stunned.

"Won't you wait until the weekend?" Hikaru Takikawa said, "Harumi's attendance is already dangerous. ”

"Eight days to go." He looked at the two of them, "I can't wait." ”

"Okay." Hikaru Takikawa nodded quickly, "Then meet at the bus stop later." ”

"I'll ask Dad to take us straight to the station." Starfish said.

"That'll do fine."

The three of them went back to pack their luggage, Naruse only came back from Takayama City the day before yesterday, and after staying there for two days, the suitcase was basically not opened, and the packing was very fast.

As he was about to go out, he thought of Morimi again.

Buzz –

What's the news......

In the study school, Morimi took out his mobile phone and took a look.

Harumi: I've found a clue, I'm going to Tokyo, so I'll leave now.

"Huh-"

Everyone in the classroom looked over.

"I'm sorry." She calmed down and bowed her head in apology.

Buzz –

Chunhai: Help me ask for leave tomorrow.

“……”

She squeezed her phone.

This guy ......
