Chapter 26 Side Mission Complete

[Side Mission Completed]

[Special Script Bonus Skill Value Reward: 200]

Feng Bujue's ultimate technique successfully shattered Saint Deut's mental defenses. Overwhelmed, the Prince lost his ability to act, and the girl took him away from the school.

Looking back, this side mission was of average difficulty, no more difficult than the previous "Corpse-less Murder Incident," so the reward for this mission was also quite ordinary.

[One week later, on a small road near Nyamemi's house.]

After the mission completion prompt, a scene transition followed, and Jue-ge and Xiao Tan appeared in the location mentioned by the system voice.

"Hmm...we're here again," Wang Tanzhi immediately said. "Last time we were here, it was early in the morning..."

"I've been wandering around here in broad daylight for a long time..." Feng Bujue casually replied.

"Eh? Jue-ge." While speaking, Xiao Tan suddenly remembered something and turned to Jue-ge. "Before, after we completed the side missions, we didn't have an immediate scene transition, how come this time it transitioned directly?"

"I don't know," Feng Bujue said. "Maybe it's related to the script's progress..." His expression turned serious. "Counting this chapter, only seven chapters remain until the thirty-three chapter goal... In terms of the plot's tension... it should be nearing the end."

"I see..." Xiao Tan nodded in response.

As they said this, two "people" slowly walked over from the T-junction ahead.

Jue-ge and Xiao Tan took a closer look and saw Tumee and Nyamemi walking over with their school bags.

"There haven't been any cases lately~" Tumee said as she walked. "By the way, Nyamemi-chan, are there any dismembered bodies hanging from the trees in your garden or anything? About a hundred would be good."

Nyamemi glared at Tumee and said, "Even if you're full of expectations for a hellish case to happen at my house... I can't help you..."

Their dialogue still displayed the Hiyori nature, flatly stating strange content.

"Good morning, you two." A few seconds later, another figure appeared, it was Kumakichi-kun wearing a set of women's spaghetti strap transparent pajamas. He greeted the two girls nonchalantly and said, "The weather is really nice today~ Did you hear, another transfer student is coming to our class today... Ah!"

Before he could finish his sentence, Tumee's sharp gaze locked onto him again.

"You scared me! Tumee-chan's eyes have become sharp!" Kumakichi stopped in surprise. "This... could it be..." He once again said that explanatory line, "There's no mistaking it... this look shows that Tumee-chan's inspiration is bursting forth, her mental energy is focused on the case... because of this characteristic, Tumee-chan has also earned the nickname 'Scared me!'" He paused for a moment, "But... where is the case?"

"I feel like every time he introduces Tumee's nickname, the content he says is different..." Xiao Tan mumbled with squinted eyes as he watched from the sidelines.

"It's similar to 'the words on Tumee's chest are different on every piece of clothing'..." Feng Bujue replied, "Either it's an intentionally arranged gag, or the author of *Hiyori* always forgets what they drew last time..."

As the two were commenting, Tumee had already taken out her phone, obviously... she wanted to call the police.

"Eh? Wait... that's not right!" Kumakichi said in a panic, "Are you going to arrest me again?"

"Where did you steal it from this time? You perverted bear." Tumee asked him questions, but her dialing action didn't stop at all.

"This is his own," Feng Bujue had already stepped forward and interrupted their conversation before Kumakichi could answer.

"That's right, I saw Kumakichi-kun wearing it once," Wang Tanzhi also walked up, and echoed without changing expression.

The script had progressed to this point, and Xiao Tan's moral integrity had long since been shattered. He was already used to lying for Kumakichi.

"I see..." Tumee said, "I thought wearing a bra during the last outing was already outrageous, but I didn't expect you perverted bear to have so many tricks up your sleeve."

"Yeah, this guy has a lot of weird clothes at home," Feng Bujue said.

"Right, right, last time he was wearing the exact same outfit as the Phantom Thief BeArs_eye from *Detective Tadpole Boy*," Xiao Tan added.

"You two perverts aren't trying to protect Kumakichi-kun, are you?" Tumee continued.

Ever since the "Phantom Thief BeArs_eye" mission, Xiao Tan and Jue-ge had been labeled as underwear thieves, and Tumee often referred to them as such, so Xiao Tan was no longer surprised by this title.

Also, speaking of that incident, it is necessary to mention... after the mission, one thing puzzled Xiao Tan very much, that is... the universe's handling of such cases was ridiculously lenient. Xiao Tan had once found an opportunity to ask Kumakichi how long they would be sentenced for an incident like the last one? As a result, Kumakichi told him that kind of burglary, confronting the police... only three days; and the crimes that Kumakichi usually committed were usually released after a day...

This is in the Hiyori universe... if it were in real life, you would have to pick up soap in prison for at least five years...

"How could that be?" Facing Tumee's questioning, Feng Bujue replied shamelessly, "What good would it do us to protect him?"

"Hmm..." Tumee pondered for a few seconds and put away her phone, "Never mind, never mind..." She shrugged, "If it really is Kumakichi's own stuff, then it doesn't count as an incident."

As soon as she finished speaking, suddenly...

[Successfully disrupted the investigation of the "Panda Teacher's Pajamas" incident]

[Kumakichi's hatred towards you +5%]

[Please note that Kumakichi's hatred towards player - Feng Bujue has reached 100%, hidden plot triggered]

[Main Mission Changed]

A series of unfamiliar system prompts rang in the ears of the two players, and they quickly opened the game menu to check.

Only then did they discover that [Limit the number of times Kumakichi is arrested to within ten times (including the tenth time).] had changed to... [Before the end of the script, find a way to hide your 'player' identity.]

"What!"

"What?"

At that moment, Jue-ge and Xiao Tan spoke the same sentence in their hearts, but with slightly different feelings.

Seeing this unprecedented, strange mission, Xiao Tan felt surprised and confused.

And Feng Bujue... almost instantly realized something when he saw the mission content...

What he felt... was shock, and unease.
