Chapter Fifty-Five

The next day I got up early and caught the first subway train from Kanagawa back to Tokyo. I went back to put the flowers first, and then went to school.

Ono has become a celebrity in the school. The news that she owns a hardcover novel that is limited to 200 sets nationwide spread throughout the school yesterday. At this time, Ono is completely like a big star, enjoying the baptism of those envious eyes.

For the book fans who come here to admire the novel, we are also very generous in showing the novel, but we will never lend it out.

I don’t understand their fanaticism. Isn’t it just a set of novels? I went online to look up information about Tomoko Harafuji, and also took a look at her famous novels. Those novels are basically about ordinary girls.

I met the eldest young master with a first-class family background and appearance, and then the two misunderstood and fell in love. Then there was the obstruction of the family. In the end, the prince and Cinderella lived happily together. Although it felt like it was well written, for someone like me who has watched countless

For those who have traveled through bubble idol dramas and classic love novels, those stories are not profound enough and can only satisfy those little girls who love fantasy.

After school in the afternoon, I went home, picked up books and flowers, and went directly to the station, aiming for the Maori Detective Agency.

It was still Xiaolan who opened the door.

"Hello, Sister Xiaolan!" I greeted with a smile.

"It's a copy! Come in quickly!"

"Sister Xiaolan, is Uncle Maori at home? The doctor asked me to send flowers to uncle." I raised the bag with green peonies in my hand.

"Wait a moment, I'll ask dad to come out." Xiaolan poured me a glass of juice and walked out of the living room.

As soon as Xiaolan left, Conan changed from his usual cute self, walked up to me in an old-fashioned way and asked: "What kind of flowers did you bring today?"

I smiled brightly at him and said, "Don't worry, it's definitely a rare breed that will make you look good!" Then I turned around and took out the set of books from my backpack. "I'm sorry to bother you."

"Yeah! I'll go get it signed for you!" Conan reached out and took the book and put it in his backpack.

"Are they the flowers that Dr. Agasa asked someone to send?" Kogoro Mori arrived before anyone else as before. When he saw me in the living room, he smiled and said, "It turns out to be Murong! The doctor asked you to bring them.

Where are the flowers? Let me take a look first. I am going to attend a high-society flower show this time, and I don’t want them if they are not expensive varieties."

"Uncle Maori, don't worry! They are definitely rare varieties!" As he said that, he took the flowers out of the bag and put them on the table.

As soon as the flowers appeared, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"It's so beautiful! It's actually a green chrysanthemum." Xiaolan couldn't help but admired it.

"Ahem!" Mao Li coughed twice, pretending to be calm, trying his best to hide his excitement. "It's not bad. The doctor asked you to send it specifically, so I'll accept it for now."

I smiled and turned around, just in time to see the corners of Conan's mouth twitching.

The next night, I went to the doctor's place again and brought back the flowers and books. I heard that my pot of green peonies was the most precious variety of all the chrysanthemums in the Tianhua Exhibition, which really made Maoli look good.

.Everyone said that Mr. Mouri was not only great at solving crimes, but also had first-class taste. Even his idol, Miss Okino Yoko, did not hide her love for this pot of flowers. Conan said that Kogoro Mouri was simply in a state of disbelief that day.

Came back.

After chatting with Conan and the others about vampires and dark organizations for a while, I went home with flowers and books. Tomorrow is Renzu’s birthday. If I give him the book, this matter will be over. Thinking about this

I have to run around after class for several days, which is really exhausting. Fortunately, after October, everyone's birthdays are not so concentrated, so I don't have to work so hard to prepare birthday gifts.

The next day, I called Renzu early in the morning. First, I wished him a happy birthday, and then asked him to wait for me at school after class.

As soon as the bell rang, I was once again the first to rush out of the classroom. Although Ono was very confused about me running out of the classroom in a hurry these past few days, he still didn't ask anything.

As soon as they arrived at Hyokui, they found that the entrance to Hyōtei's school was crowded with people. What's going on? Did someone come to Hyōtei to cause trouble? He pushed Renjun aside and walked inside, only to find that it was a group of people from Hyōtei's tennis club.

They were all standing at the door, so it attracted so many people to watch.

Xiang Ri spotted me first with sharp eyes, and excitedly waved to me and shouted: "Murong, we are here!"

I sweated a lot. In this situation, anyone with long eyes must have seen you there! Under the strong gazes of the Ice Emperor nymphomaniacs, I walked over quickly.

"Hey, what are you doing standing at the school gate? Aren't you afraid of affecting traffic?" I asked with a dissatisfied look on my face.

"Didn't you call and tell us to wait for you?" Renzu said with an innocent smile.

I glared and whispered: "I asked you to wait for me at school, not to drag everyone together and stand at the school gate to show off."

Renzu turned a deaf ear to my question, and instead deliberately said to me with a gentle face: "I was afraid that you couldn't find me, so I waited for you at the school gate so that you could see me when you arrived."

The murderous intent around me became even more intense...

This was not enough. I glared at him fiercely. I reached out and took out the book from my schoolbag and threw it in front of him: "A gift!"

Renzu did not reach out to pick it up, but asked in surprise: "Is this set of books the gift you want to give me?"

"That's right! Don't you like it? I thought you liked reading this kind of novel!"

Renzu pushed up his glasses, smiled and said, "I don't like it, it's just that I bought this set of books a few days ago."

My face darkened. Did I really send a housekeeper to queue up to buy books? I suddenly felt very angry. They had housekeepers waiting in line to buy books, but I was still there alone, risking frostbite from the squad leader, and walked hard for twenty

Isn't it like a fool to stand in line for four hours?

Feeling angry, he took his hand back and said, "If you don't want to, forget it."

Renzu watched Murong take the book back angrily, but suddenly felt reluctant to part with it. Although he had asked Jibu to buy this set of books for him, after all, it was a nationally limited edition of two hundred sets, and Murong must have put in a lot of effort.

You just got it! Seeing that she was about to put the book back into her bag, she reached out and grabbed it without thinking.

I was caught off guard and Ninzu snatched the book away and stared at him angrily.

Renzu shook the book in his hand and said, "Although I already have one, since this is the birthday gift you specially prepared for me, I'd better accept it."

I snorted and replied angrily: "Don't force it. If you don't want it, just give it back to me. I can give it to others."

"Oh? Who else do you want to give it to?" Nin stopped shaking the book with his hand, squinted his eyes and asked with interest.

"Give it to Ji Xiang! She should like it very much."

Renzu smiled and said in a deliberately aggrieved tone: "But isn't this the birthday gift you specially prepared for me? How can you give it to someone else?"

He especially emphasized the word "specially", which caused the nymphomaniac girls nearby to stare at me and bite the handkerchief.

I said disapprovingly: "Don't you already have a set?"

"But..." Suddenly the hand that couldn't bear to open the cover stopped there, looking at the title page of the book in surprise. He then opened the second and third books. Finally, he looked at the front in disbelief and still had an unhappy expression. The girl asked in surprise: "Why is there Tomoko Harafuji's autograph on this set of books?"

As soon as he asked the question, Atobe and the others all leaned over to read the book, and then looked at me with puzzled faces. The surroundings seemed to suddenly become quiet.

"Of course I asked her to sign it? How can the signature appear on its own?"

Renzu felt a little surprised. If this book was sent by Atobu, he would understand. After all, Atobu always wanted to be gorgeous, and it was indeed something he would do to go out of his way to find the author's autograph. But Murong... read it He looked at Murong and then at Atobe. No matter how you look at them, they are two people who have absolutely no similarities at all!

Seeing Renzu being silent there, I continued: "As far as I know, this set of books is signed by the author. So far, there are only two sets. One set is in the hands of the eldest lady of the Suzuki Group, Suzuki Sonoko. There is a set, right here." I pointed to the book in Ninzu's hand and said, "If you don't want it, just give it back to me! I only bought two sets of this book. If you don't want it, I'll give this one to you. Ji Xiang."

After hearing this, Renzu asked in surprise: "You bought two sets?"

This set of books is a hardcover edition with only 200 sets distributed nationwide, so the price is obviously not low. Even Renzu, a young man who is never short of money, spent almost two months of pocket money to buy a set. And she actually bought two sets in one go. Where did she get so much money?

"Yeah! I also gave a set to Xiaoye, but I didn't have time to get that set signed. It's really not easy to buy this book! I queued for twenty-four hours, and I was offended because I didn't go to class. If you lose the squad leader, the gain outweighs the losses!" Thinking of the squad leader's face that has been cold these days, I couldn't help but feel chills all over my body.

After hearing what she said, Renzu laughed. She looked at the book in her hand and originally thought she had asked the butler to queue up to buy it. Unexpectedly, she had queued up for twenty-four hours to buy it by herself. The driver said that it seemed to have snowed in the early morning of that day! Suddenly my heart felt warm.

"Since this set of books is so precious, I will accept it. If there are only two sets in the country, it is indeed worth collecting."

Renzu smiled at me frivolously, and I turned my head to the side. What do you mean, you mean you don't want it if it doesn't have a signature? If I had known better, I wouldn't have bought this crappy book, and I would have just found something as a birthday gift. I had to wait in line for so long, so I was really at a loss this time.

But forget it, anyway, I bought the book and gave it as a gift. Whatever I was thinking about now was in vain. I raised my hand and looked at the time.

"The gift has been given to you. If it's okay, I'll go back first."

"Wait a minute." Renzu stopped me. "We are going to celebrate our birthday together, so you should come too!"

Xiangri jumped out excitedly and said, "Yes, yes! Come together! There will be a lot of delicious things."

I thought for a while, frowned slightly and said, "I'm not going to KTV again!"

"I would not choose such an unpretentious place to celebrate the birthday of my club members. Today I am going to my house."

As soon as Atobe finished speaking, the surrounding area started to boil.

"Did you hear that, they are going to Atobe-sama's house to celebrate Ninzu-sama's birthday!"

"Yeah! I really want to go!"

"Wow! Atobe-sama's home must be very gorgeous. I really want to see it!"
