511 I detect the scent of something improper (2/2)
”Sure thing, Seiji.” Kaede smiled and nodded.
Both Mika and Chiaki's expressions froze over slightly to hear Kaede addressing Seiji in such an intimate fashion.
They both turned their heads to look at the blonde health teacher/infirmary nurse before both turning to look at the handsome youth.
”I detect the scent of something improper.” Chiaki started acting like a famous detective. ”Inspector Mika, what do you make of this?”
”I believe that a crime has occurred, Detective Chiaki.” Mika began narrowing her eyes.
”Crime, the hell!” Seiji felt rather awkward about this. ”She merely called me by name.”
”That's not something to be described with the word 'merely'. The fact that she's changed the way she addresses you means that something special happened between you! My deduction is that something improper between teacher and student must have occurred!” Chiaki adjusted some imaginary eyeglasses.
”Not at all! Nothing improper occurred whatsoever. I'm innocent!” Seiji averted his gaze.
”Your guilty expression has already betrayed you! You must have done something… Juumonji-sensei, please give us a victim's statement!” Chiaki turned towards Kaede.
”I wasn't a victim, but I can give you a statement if you like.” Kaede had a wide grin. ”That was an unforgettable night…”
”Sensei!” Seiji had an expression of ”Please don't mess around with me like that.”
Inspector Mika… was now giving off an aura as if she was transforming into her evil side!
”I really didn't do anything. It was just that something happened at the Juumonji Family's residence, so I helped out a little, causing my relationship to become closer to Sensei,” Seiji explained.
”I don't think that's all that occurred. The prime suspect is withholding many important details.” Something flashed in Chiaki's eyes.
”The details aren't important. Please don't mind!”
”They're quite important to me. After all, that was my first time—”
”Sensei!”
The commotion caused by this lasted for quite a while.
Kaede finally chuckled and stopped intentionally fooling around.
”It's just as Seiji said. He helped my family, which helped to improve our relationship.” Kaede smiled as she explained. ”Nothing improper happened, even though I wanted something like that to happen. He simply refused to cooperate…”
”As for the specifics of what happened, please leave that to your imagination.”
Chiaki didn't pursue the matter anymore after hearing this.
After all, with her intelligence that was on the level of a famous detective's, she already guessed the general situation that must have occurred.
Mika had a complex expression as she glared at Seiji for a while before averting her gaze.
Seiji could only smile wryly.
When Seiji arrived at the president's residence, he mentioned the suspicious cell phone game named ”Anna” to Natsuya.
Natsuya agreed to investigate it later when she had the spare time.
”The duel equipment that Haruta-san… er, your younger sister is providing for you has arrived. I had it placed in your room,” Natsuya told Seiji.
His dueling equipment!
Seiji was rather curious just what equipment Hana would provide to him.
He immediately went to his room in Natsuya's residence and found a silver briefcase inside.
The briefcase was sealed. There appeared to be no physical way to open it up.
Seiji sent a message to Hana, and she responded almost instantly. She told him the magical way to open it along with the corresponding password.
He then put the briefcase on the floor and injected Mana into the handle.
A black spell formation instantly appeared on the briefcase, showing a number pad.
Seiji entered the correct password into the numpad with his other hand.
