"Um, Haruka, I believe in you."
```
Misaki Saki rubbed her delicate little face into the palm of Haruka Yuzan’s hand, like a wounded kitten, quiet, longing.
"Misaki, actually, most of the time, you should follow what you really want to do deep in your heart, rather than blindly pleasing others."
Haruka Yuzan said softly.
"Okay, I understand."
Misaki Saki obediently nodded her head, then she leaned sideways and sprawled onto Haruka Yuzan, twirling her hair with her fingers, the originally lively and cheerful little one became listless.
"Haruka, do you think we can stay together forever?"
The little one’s voice was very soft, especially frail and pitiful in the stillness of the night.
"We certainly will."
Haruka Yuzan said gently, stroking the poor little one’s smooth back.
Looking at the flashing text on the virtual panel, "[Lucky Draw X4]", with four chances, he should be able to get one or two useful items for himself.
According to the plan, he still had to ask others to help him investigate, cradling the warm little one in his arms, Haruka Yuzan couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
"Misaki, do you still remember the names of those people?"
"Huh?"
.....
"That’s how it is, Chiba-san, I think you have the abilities to help investigate."
Under the sunlight, Chiba Shimizu sat in a wicker chair on the small balcony, her slender fingers gently flipping through the thick pages, glanced at the note handed over by the boy, and said indifferently:
"So, what you mean is you want me to help you find out where these four people are?"
Her voice was very cool, like the autumn wind in September, refreshing and carrying a hint of chill.
"Yes!"
Haruka Yuzan nodded, his face showing a somewhat ingratiating expression; when asking for help, one must show the right attitude.
Chiba Shimizu had no objections to Haruka Yuzan’s desire to help avenge someone, but...
The girl took the note, looked at the names on it, and then said indifferently, "What can a runaway heiress like me do to help with your investigation? This kind of task would be more suitable for Otome Mizuko, wouldn’t it?"
"Yumeko can’t do it." Haruka Yuzan shook his head, "You probably understand Yumeko better than I do. If she were to investigate, perhaps she would have dealt with those people’s affairs before I could even act, which would render the whole thing pointless."
Chiba Shimizu nodded, agreeing with the boy’s point of view.
"So, I’m asking you for this favor, Chiba!"
Haruka Yuzan brought his hands together in an appealing gesture.
"Okay." Chiba Shimizu accepted the note, then opened "Treatise on Human Nature" again and said unhurriedly, "They should all be about the same age as Misaki, right..."

"Yes, I asked Misaki before, one is studying at Tokyo University, and three are wandering in society."
"Tokyo University?"
"Yes, Tokyo University...."
....
"Ding-dong... The examination time has ended."
After the proctor collected the last subject exam paper, all the students breathed a sigh of relief.
Joyful smiles filled everyone’s faces; no matter the results, just two more days of classes and they could welcome their first summer break in high school.
"Hey, Haruka, do you really have no plans for the break?"
Heisuke Yonchu came over, extending the most sincere invitation to his good buddy.
"Join me! Let’s create the spirit belonging to us otakus!!"
Haruka Yuzan looked indifferently at the chuunibyou boy beside him and said leisurely:
"Weren’t you supposed to go on a trip abroad with your family, Heisuke?"
"If you command me, I can not go."
"No need."
"You don’t want me to go?"
"No, I have other arrangements for the break, so, Heisuke, you should go have fun with your family too!"
"Ah?? What plans do you have, Haruka?"
"I’m going to get some fresh air too!"
"By yourself?"
Haruka Yuzan smiled and glanced towards the elegant figure who had been sitting opposite him.
"Ah?!!"
Embracing July while welcoming the beginning of August, heat was like a shadow, with the occasional breeze that felt refreshingly cool, like a touch of comfort in the fierce summer.
The sky was blue, and the clouds were bright, like a painting, comforting and pleasing to the soul.
"Yohoo! Today we set off!!" Enjoy exclusive content from freewebnovel
Wearing a sunhat and dressed in cool clothes, the little one skipped excitedly through the garden with her short legs.
Having finished a semester of studies, Haruka Yuzan stretched languidly, wearing a sports T-shirt and shorts, with sunglasses, he looked particularly sunny.
After taking a breath of fresh air, he couldn’t help but shift his gaze to the stunning silhouettes in the living room.
Today, Reiko Onodera was wearing a black silk strappy bodycon dress that outlined her perfect curves with tantalizing lines, covered by a thin, coffee-colored jacket, just right to cover her bare, delicate shoulders.
The mature woman appeared even more alluring and captivating in the bodycon dress.
"Hoshina, have you packed your clothes yet?"
Madam gently adjusted the hair falling beside her ear and asked softly; she was happy today, as she was about to see her daughter.
"It’s all packed."
On the other side, Kuro-Pi Spicy Girl replied in a straightforward manner.
