Zongman: Dream with me

Chapter 133 Conjecture and Proof

That night, the originally quiet town of Aomurense became even more silent under the cover of darkness. People who were outside returned home, and the lights in the houses were lit as usual.

And among these lights, a new light appeared.

At Kasugano Hospital, Yukinoshita Yukino said goodbye to Ifukube Yahiro who came to visit her and left the room. She turned around and saw Yuu who was still looking down at her notebook, and she sighed deeply.

As the nominal guardian of the angel Mu Ying, although she was too lazy to do anything in her daily life, when she found out that her girl had been kidnapped and did not return home even after dark, she felt it was necessary to ask about it.

Although it was really just a question.

"Have you found anything?" Yukinoshita Yukino asked curiously.

"No, they are just some daily medical records and some of my grandmother's insights, but..."

Qiong raised her head and looked at the neatly arranged notebooks on the wall, her eyes moving slightly.

"…but there are two missing, or to be more precise, one."

"Do you think this has anything to do with Kasugano-kun?"

"……Um."

Yukinoshita Yukino also looked at the bookshelf. These books were left by Grandma Kasugano, but one of them was given to a girl by her before she died.

Ifukube Yahiro knew about this, and she did not hide it. After all, Qiong was the heir of these books.

"If we calculate the time of the two missing books, one is exactly when the girl named Tiannv Muying was born, and the other is six years later..."

Yukinoshita Yukino began to analyze the situation in detail.

"According to Miss Ifukube, Miss Tenme-eki was abandoned by her mother shortly after she was born and then adopted by Mr. Tenme-eki. So the first book should be related to Miss Tenme-eki's life experience."

Qiong nodded. The book that her grandmother gave to the goddess Muying should be the first one, which should contain some clues about her parents' life experience.

But what about the second one?

"Do you think Yuu took the second one?"

These notebooks contain daily hospital diagnosis records, such as who is sick today, what medicine they need, or who needs a follow-up examination...

Sometimes my grandmother would write down some of her own thoughts and opinions, but they were very fragmented and it was difficult to find anything useful.

Qiong closed another notebook and looked boredly at the cabinet where he was copying and drawing various bottles and jars.

When I was a child, because of my poor health, my grandmother would often take medicine from these bottles for me. There was a time when I hated these things very much. Instead, I would read the words on them out of boredom.

"From an objective point of view, the probability that it was taken away by someone is very high, but the possibility that it was lost by accident cannot be ruled out."

"..."

When they opened the room, they saw notebooks scattered randomly on the floor, and from the traces around them, Qiong immediately determined that it was Mu You.

But they were a step too late. A few hours before they arrived at Homi Station, Mu You took Tiannv Muying to visit another city.

"Are you really not going to contact that guy?"

"Never!"

Qiong didn't have a cold face, but pouted, turned her head away, and looked angry.

"Is Qiong being tsundere?"

Mashiro put down his paintbrush, picked up his phone and sat next to Qiong.

"……No."

"It seems so~"

"you shut up."

Qiong rubbed Shiina Mashiro's little face in annoyance, and rolled it into various shapes like dough.

"Just touch it and try it..."

"What are you talking about?" Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Mashiro who was still being stubborn and signaled to Kyon to let her go.

"Humph!"

"Qiong is waiting for You to contact her, but..."

"Um?!"

Under Qiong's slightly cold gaze, Shiina Mashiro closed her mouth from the bottom of her heart and looked at the messy notebook in front of her, thoughtfully.

"Do you have any ideas?"

"Why don't you ask Yu?" Shiina Mashiro looked at Yukinoshita Yukino who asked the question strangely.

Yukinoshita: “…”

Qiong covered her face helplessly.

Yes, generally speaking, as long as you want, Youmuyou will always be able to answer any question; even if for some reason he can't give a clear answer, it often involves other people's privacy...

Qiong's hands suddenly froze. After calming herself down, she picked up the notebook she had already read, rummaged through it, and finally found an unfamiliar name.

Realizing that Kyon seemed to have discovered something, Yukinoshita curiously sat on the other side and looked where her finger was pointing.

Shigekuni seems to be experiencing some health issues again. Despite being advised to rest more, he's still worried about the shrine...

As the pages of the book turned, time began to flow slowly, and Qiong and others discovered more words and fragments.

……

[…This is ridiculous. You’re already an elderly person, yet you’re still trying to hide your illness…]

……

[…Mr. Shigekuni's health is deteriorating. One of his hands is constantly shaking. Could this really be a remnant of that incident? I feel a deep sense of unease and guilt…]

……

[…His children tried to persuade him to move in with them so they could better care for him, but Mr. Shigekuni refused…]

……

[…Mr. Shigekuni said his children were very unhappy with his granddaughter. If he were to die like this, what would happen to Ying, and what would happen to the shrine…]

……

[…Mr. Shigekuni has passed away.]

……

This was a series of records after the second lost notebook, and then Qiong began to flip forward again, but did not find any relevant records.

"This is..." Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Qiong in surprise, her eyes full of disbelief.

"You has his own reasons for everything he does. If there is no reason, he will not have too many interactions with irrelevant people."

Qiong closed the book and breathed a sigh of relief when she found the cause of the problem.

"What is this? Energy conservationism?"

"Well, sort of, but we have a general idea of ​​what was recorded in the lost notebook."

"Are you saying that the reason Mr. Shigekuni is sick is that he might be the grandfather of the celestial maiden Meei?"

"Wouldn't it be better to ask?"

Qiong stood up, walked out of the room and headed towards the shrine mountain.

She should have thought of it earlier. All of this was related to the girl named Tennome Ei. Yuya must have known the whole story, but in the end he still chose to have an affair.

"……asshole."

Qiong held her hands tightly. In the foreseeable future, she almost saw You bringing another girl to her and introducing her to her, saying that they would become good friends...

It had to be this way because the same thing had happened so many times.

The brother sacrifices his looks to make friends for his lonely sister, and then introduces the friend to his sister...

How could she be so pitiful! It was obvious that having You was enough from the beginning, and it was obviously someone who always liked to make things unnecessary!

So this time, Qiong decided to take the initiative. She wanted to find out the truth before You opened his mouth, and then make her own judgment.

She wants to prove to You that she has no lack of ability in this area, nor does she lack friends!
