บท 855: The Relationship between Asada-san and Kashima-san?
Holding a box full of notes, Mafuyu paused a few steps and finally reached Shinichi, who was behind the line.
"Let's draw lots."
"Sure."
Shinichi reached into the box and took it out, but instead pulled out a piece of paper from the small gap at the bottom of the box.
As everyone had to draw and then line up according to their numbers, Mafuyu didn't check the notes in his hand, then handed the box to Kashima next to him.
When they finished drawing and were about to walk towards the next student, Mafuyu stopped, and looked him up and down.
"Did you just come back from the woods?"
Shinichi was surprised: "Woods? Why do you ask?"
Mafuyu pointed at his muddy trousers, and slightly messy tracksuit.
"Weird. I remember a teacher patrolling somewhere and not allowing his students to enter the woods early... What's up with you?"
Mafuyu stared at Shinichi, waiting for an explanation.
"Isn't there a maple tree scenic park on the other side of the hotel?" Looking into Mafuyu's eyes, his gaze turned to her lips, Shinichi smiled.
"I was wrestling with some male classmates there, and I accidentally got myself dirty."
Mafuyu was stunned.
Then she narrowed her eyes in increasing disbelief and displeasure.
"You? Wrestling with your male classmates?"
"Does Sensei want me to be with female classmates?" Shinichi stretched his hands.
"No, it's not a gender issue..." Mafuyu stopped and sighed.
"Forget it. If the wrestling target is female classmates, remember to go to the disciplinary committee to write an apology letter the day after tomorrow."
"I'm not brave enough..."
"Then be careful with what you say."
As that slightly stern voice fell, Mafuyu stopped caring and walked towards the next student.
After walking a little further, Shinichi sighed.
A teasing glance passed by his side, Kashima chuckled and spoke.
"How dare you lie to Kirisu-sensei. I really don't know whether to say you have courage or accuse you of being a liar."
"Don't slander me, I haven't lied to many people." Shinichi clicked his tongue.
"Lies are only to protect myself and others. Besides, I don't want to and don't need to lie."
"Is that so? It's truly amazing." Kashima smiled uninterested.
Soon, after all the second-year students drew lots, they followed the teacher's instructions and began lining up in pairs according to the numbers on the slips. Amidst the noise, a long line gradually formed.
Since this was a random draw, most people didn't know or weren't familiar with their "partners." which was not only embarrassing; some were luckier and happened to draw the same number as friends, lovers, or loved ones.
And Fumino undoubtedly belonged to the "lucky" type of person.
"Kashima-san, we're in the same group! What a coincidence~"
Standing at the front of the line, holding the note "No. 1" in her hand, Fumino looked at the note with the same number written on Kashima's hand, a bright smile appeared, and her joy surpassed words.
"Yes, what a coincidence..."
Kashima clearly didn't have acting ability and shameless nature like Shinichi, or she would feel extremely guilty facing Fumino.
She maintained a graceful smile, trying not to let the other party see her embarrassment.
And Fumino, who usually had a keen observational ability and could detect all sorts of oddities, didn't notice anything strange. Because shortly after, Shinichi and Rizu walked behind them holding "No. 2" in their hands.
"Eh?" Fumino exclaimed in disbelief, "Isn't this a coincidence!?"
"Yes, it doesn't matter if I get number two. Besides, I've been number two since I was little... No, I've been close to number two since I was little."
Shinichi expressed just the right amount of emotion.
"Rizu and I are a group, and you are a group with your friends. You don't have to worry about doing the courage test with someone you don't know."
Listening to him speak indifferently, the smile on Kashima face remained the same, but with a slight sense of disgust.
(You haven't lied to many people, but the people you've lied to are like bread you've eaten, you can't count them anymore, right?)
"Um, I think it's a blessing from the Udon God."
Following Shinichi, Rizu lifted her chest, making a bold statement.
"With the protection of the Udon God, mere ghosts will never be able to hurt me... So this courage test is not difficult for me at all! I can do it easily!"
"Rizu, when you say this, can you stop hugging me and trembling..."
"Please don't impose yourself on others!"
"Is this too difficult for others to do..." Shinichi sighed.
Rizu usually believed in atheism and believed that science could explain everything except the human heart, actually talking about the blessing of the Udon God... She seemed very afraid of ghosts and other things.
As for the cute Rizu, she might cry for a long time if she were scared. Of course, Shinichi wouldn't have such evil thoughts. He had to find a way to make her feel comfortable.
"It's certainly fun to have such a coincidence..."
Beside him, Fumino murmured unconsciously.
"But no matter how I say it, it always feels like someone has done something to her..."
She diverted her gaze. Under the suspicious gaze, Shinichi didn't say anything, but the smile on his face became brighter.
Highly suspicious.
"Fumino's Shinichi Radar" sounded, and she detected an unusual smell.
"Asada-san, could it be... No, wait!"
As she was about to ask, Fumino turned to Kashima next to her.
"I'm so sorry!"
Before she could say anything, Kashima bowed her head and apologized, while at the same time pointing her finger at the "main culprit."
"Under Asada... Asada-san's orders, I asked the Thorn Club to tamper with the lottery box. The other members didn't know the reason, they just thought it was the same 'usual' task."
What was commonly mentioned was naturally to bring together the love between Shinichi and Fumino.
"The person who counted Furuhashi-san is this guy from start to finish..." Kashima glanced at Shinichi, then at Fumino.
"But it's an undeniable fact that I acted as an accomplice and quietly helped him."
"So, I'm willing to accept any punishment... I just hope Furuhashi-san won't hate me for this."
After hearing her words, Fumino sighed helplessly.
"Although I'm very upset... But I'm not that stingy. We're friends, not king and minister during the Warring States period."
She smiled and held Kashima's hand.
"So Kashima-san, don't worry, I'll go directly to the person responsible to solve this problem. I won't ever hate you or anything, please continue to be my friend!"
"...Um, of course!"
Kashima nodded enthusiastically, and the genuine feeling even made her tear up.
"Okay, then, next..."
Fumino moved her eyes and looked at Shinichi with a friendly smile, but her eyes seemed cold.
"Right, I did everything."
"Why didn't you fight back even a little?!"
Seeing that Shinichi didn't resist for even half a second and immediately surrendered, Fumino's mouth moved slightly, glaring at him angrily.
"Simply confessing is worse than a Conan prisoner!"
Shinichi stretched his hands with a blank expression on his face.
"It's not a bad thing. I just made some arrangements to facilitate myself. Is that a 'sin'?"
Moreover, he didn't intend to hide it from them from the beginning.
It's different from now. If he didn't say it, Mafuyu wouldn't know why he got his clothes dirty, but as long as Fumino wasn't stupid, she could guess it when he went to the woods...
It's better not to lie, sooner or later, it will be revealed.
"Is that so, what's your plan?" Fumino wasn't angry, but she looked puzzled at them.
"And Asada-san, when did you secretly contact Kashima-san... Hmm?"
Her voice stopped, like a wife smelling an affair, Fumino looked back and forth between Kashima and Shinichi, suspicion growing stronger on her face.
After all, the Thorn Club had a criminal record in some aspects, and Shinichi had many criminal records in more serious aspects.
It really made people wonder if this person doubted what Shinichi said at the confession...
Kashima immediately realized the meaning behind Fumino's expression... Her face immediately stained with a deep red, and she quickly waved her hand to defend herself.
"No, that's not what you're thinking, Princess Furuhashi! I'm innocent and have absolutely nothing to do with this person—"
"She just lost a bet and did something for me." Shinichi immediately interrupted and explained.
Kashima nodded vigorously and quickly calmed herself.
"That's right! No matter how stupid I am, I wouldn't target someone with many women like him..."
In the middle of the road, she saw Fumino and Rizu's expressions soften at the same time, showing a depressed expression.
"Then, I truly apologize..."
