Chapter 20 Back to School

He pinched the thickness and, well, he was very satisfied.

I opened it and looked at the denomination; it was a thousand.

…………

A few black lines appeared on his forehead. He was about to get angry, but the person who delivered the money left early, so he had no choice but to swallow his anger.

You just can't bear to spend 10,000 yuan on a single bill. You could at least get one for 5,000 yuan, or even 2,000 yuan, I would be satisfied. You just got one for 1,000 yuan.

The envelope contains only tens of thousands of yen, at most no more than 100,000.

He squeezed the thickness again, and felt terrible. "Our organization is so big, but we have no money in the finance department and no money among the members."

This job is impossible to do!

I can't keep doing this anymore!

He'd made up his mind: he'd go to school tomorrow and latch onto Sonoko's coattails.

Without further ado, he drank the last bit of wine in his glass, then went out to hail a taxi and went home.

Back home, he tossed the envelope onto the table, then sprawled out on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling. Just then, his phone rang; it was Sonoko calling. He hesitated for a moment, then answered.

"Are you back already?" Sonoko's voice sounded somewhat serious.

"I just got back less than an hour ago, and I'm lying on the sofa at home right now."

Why didn't you tell me so I could have picked you up?

If I told you that you were going to meet Gin and the others, that would be a huge problem.

"Oh, I've missed you so much these past two months! I've already talked to my teacher, and I'm going back to school tomorrow so I can see you then. I'm so excited!" He was incredibly adept at handling this situation, quickly changing the subject and showering her with sweet words. Who could resist that?

Sonoko changed her tone and said happily, "I miss you so much too. I haven't even seen what you look like for the past two months. When you come to school, I'm going to take a good look at you."

After exchanging sweet nothings for a while, Su Xingbai said he needed to rest and hung up the phone early.

After hanging up the phone, he let out a long sigh of relief, then jumped up from the sofa and went to the basement, heading towards number 3 (Miyano Akemi's villa).

When he arrived, Akemi Miyano was resting in bed. He checked his watch and it was already past 8 p.m.

He chatted on the phone with Sonoko for two or three hours without noticing that it was getting dark. He took a shower and then crawled into her bed.

As soon as he crawled inside, Akemi Miyano hugged him and said gently, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"Silly girl, I just wanted to hold you and sleep together, I didn't think of anything else, why would I wake you up?" He affectionately pinched the tip of her nose.

“I’ve been very worried about you for the past two months, fearing that something might happen to you.”

"Don't I report to you every day?" Because he has too many girlfriends, he has to spend a few minutes every day sending messages to these girlfriends to report his safety and whereabouts.

"Besides, don't you know my abilities? No one can beat me." He was quite confident in this. I admit I'm not good enough without a system. I've had a system for so many years. If I'm still not good enough, then what's the point of having a system?

"Hmph, those who drown are all good swimmers." She looked at him irritably, then remembered her sister and asked, "How's my sister doing lately? Have you gone to see her?"

"Well, although your disappearance did have some impact on her, she's just a researcher, so the organization won't make things difficult for her. I even ran into her at the base today. I tried to approach her under the guise of chatting her up, but unfortunately, she scolded me. Hahaha."

"It's good that you're alright. I was worried that the organization would hold a grudge against Shiho for my defection, so I'd rather stay in the organization."

He put his arm around her, patted her back, and said firmly, "Don't worry, she'll be fine with me here. As long as I tell her I've taken a liking to her, Gin and the others won't harm her."

"Go to sleep, I have to go to work tomorrow."

"Going to work?" Su Xingbai looked at him in confusion. He hadn't had much of a chat with her in the past two months and didn't know when she had started going to work.

“Yeah, I can’t stay cooped up at home every day, and you can’t always be by my side. So I thought I’d just go work as a cashier at the convenience store near the apartment building. That way I can pass the time and earn some money, even if it’s not much, it can help with household expenses.”

Su Xingbai suddenly realized, "Oh, so that's the reason."

"Well, as long as you don't feel tired, that's fine. If you do feel tired, then rest. Don't overwork yourself." He didn't object to her going out to find a job. Now was not the time to confront her, so it was good for her to go out and work.

Anyway, there are human skin masks, and each skin mask has a corresponding identity and certificate, so there is no need to worry about the organization discovering that something is wrong.

Anything produced by our system is guaranteed to be of high quality.

The two rarely spent time together, but they only slept for a short while.

The next day.

When Su Xingbo woke up, he reached out and touched the bed sheet next to him, only to find it was ice-cold. He had gone to work so early.

He then got up to brush his teeth and wash his face. After he finished, he saw a sandwich, milk, and a sticky note on the table.

"If you get cold, warm it up. I love you."

He smiled, stuffed the sandwich into his mouth in one bite, swallowed hard, and then downed the milk in one gulp.

After he finished, he returned to his room, where Number One and Number Two had been waiting for him. Once in the car, he took out a few bills from the money Gin had given him the day before and tossed the rest to Number Two.

“Take this money and use it. If you run out of money, just say so. If I also run out of money, you can go and kidnap some rich people and extort a lot of money from them.”

"learn."

After explaining everything, he did what he always did: lay down on the back seat and closed his eyes to rest.

He arrived at the school quickly, and after getting off the bus, he dismissed the two men and went into the school alone.

When he arrived at the classroom door, he found that most of the students had already arrived. They greeted him and he responded with a smile.

I laughed until the muscles in my face were a little stiff, and finally I returned to my seat, letting out a sigh of relief.

Sonoko, who was in the front row, saw this and covered her mouth to chuckle, saying, "You took two months off all at once, everyone is worried about you. If they knew you went abroad for fun, they definitely wouldn't treat you so warmly."

Oh, so that's how it is. They all thought he was sick and went abroad for treatment. No wonder they were all so enthusiastic towards him.

"And what about our Miss Sonoko? Do you miss me terribly? I've been missing you for two whole months."
