Chapter 12 second quarter
Swinging the bat, the ball soared high over second base and hit right near the second floor of the schoolhouse in the middle of the outfield.
"Great, home run."
Aren was very satisfied with his swing, nodded, and ran with ease.Her teammates applauded excitedly.
"Hey, what a lot of strength."
Pitcher Hataka grumbled, "It looks like I can't get married."
"What did you say?"
After Renin ran back to home plate, he walked to the mound.Hataka covered his mouth with his gloves, and Shinobu put his hands on his hips, looking at the students who were defending.
"Your team is listless today. It's already 8-1 after only three rounds. Do you want to play or not?"
"I'm very motivated."
Hataka replied, and then suddenly lowered his voice and said, "It's Harada and Tanaka who are lax. They were struck out as soon as they played today, and their defense is full of loopholes."
"From what you say, it seems to be true."
Shinobu looked at the other two students. Shortstop Teppei Tanaka and third baseman Harada seemed absent-minded, kicking the ground with their heads down.They have always loved softball and played it well.
There must be something——she sensed it with her sixth sense as a teacher, nodded slightly, and walked back to her team.
"The game was robbed?" "En." Tie Ping hung his head weakly. "I spent all my pocket money on..." "Your was stolen too?" Aren looked at Harada, and he also squeezed out a smile and scratched his head. "You guys are so stupid." Ah Ren looked at the faces of the two students, and subconsciously sighed heavily.During the lunch break, she brought two students to the teacher's office and asked them why they were listless in physical education class. They told her that the game software had been robbed. "Two people's games were robbed on the same day, and you happened to be in the same class." "That guy must be a repeat offender, his movements are super neat." Tieping said. "Such things are not to be admired." Anne showed an impatient expression. "Have you told anyone at home?" how is this possible?Both children shook their heads. "I'll just be beaten by my dad." "In my family, my mother will teach me." Harada also said. "I don't think it's good. I should go to the police." "But," Tie Ping said hesitantly, "I've given up hope. If I get stolen, I'll be stolen. Just be careful in the future." "Huh? You're really negative." "A man must know how to let go at the right time. I want to forget about it quickly. Teacher, don't mention it again." With that said, Tieping turned and left.Harada also walked out, both of them were downcast. "Wait a minute." Ren stopped them, and they turned their heads slowly like old people. "Is it in front of Busch Station? Alright, take me there after school today." "Huh?" The two students' eyes widened. "Teacher, don't you want to catch the robber?" Harada asked worriedly. "Of course." Ah Ren said with his chest out. "Seeing my students so frustrated, I certainly couldn't stand by and watch me!" "I think it's better to get rid of this idea as soon as possible," Harada looked up at her. "Otherwise no one will dare to marry you in the future." "Without further ado." Shino hit Harada hard on the head. "Teacher, that guy runs super fast." Tieping looked at the sky, seeming to remember what happened yesterday. "I can't keep up with him at all." "give it to me." Anin patted his chest. "I'm very confident in running. If I can catch the robber, maybe I can get the Police Superintendent Award." Ah Ren laughed happily, and the two students could only look at her with complicated expressions.
After school today. "It's really lively here." Shinobu led Teppei and Harada to the shopping street in front of the station, and saw the alleys crowded with people. "It seems that something happened, and the police car is also here." Harada said.Turning his head, he saw that the lights of the police car were indeed flashing behind the human wall. Ah Ren stood on tiptoe and looked behind the crowd.The door of a large courtyard was open, and several police officers, men in unknown uniforms, and men in suits were busy coming in and out. "Ah, where did I see that uncle before?" Sitting on Harada's shoulder, Tie Ping said, "It's the criminal policeman from last time." "Where?" Looking in the direction of Tie Ping's finger, he saw a tall and familiar figure.It was Shinto, a detective from the First Investigation Section of the Osaka Prefectural Police, and the mouse-like man standing next to him should be Shinto's senior, Urushizaki.Ah Ren had dealt with them in a previous murder case. "Did something happen again?" After Tie Ping jumped off Harada's shoulder, he tilted his head and wondered. "Perhaps, they are specialized in investigating murder cases, and a murder case may have occurred here." "This place is horrible, so I hate Osaka," Harada said. "What are you talking about, don't you live here yourself?" "However, there are murders and robbers here. It's a bad place." "If you think so, study hard and become a politician in the future to improve the environment here." As soon as Ah Ren finished speaking, someone patted her on the shoulder from behind.Looking back, a girl in a dark blue sailor uniform smiled at her.The girl has short hair and looks like a little boy.Aren immediately remembered who she was. "Kaino, long time no see." She is Machiko Kajino who graduated from Ohji Elementary School two years ago.Although Aren has not taught her, Aren is very popular in school, and almost all the girls know her very well. "Teacher, what are you doing here?" Machiko glanced at Tieping and the others and asked.Ah Ren couldn't help sighing, the middle school students are much more polite. "Well, the students who accompany our class...how about you?" Anin asked back.Machiko should live near Ohji Elementary School. "My family's rented house is here. I heard that the tenant was killed. The police called my father over. I also stopped by to watch the excitement." "It turns out that a murder happened in your rented house." Ah Ren tiptoed to observe the scene again. "The teacher is very familiar with the criminal police. You can discuss with the teacher if you have anything to do." Tieping interrupted from the side. "Idiot." Ren scolded him, and Machiko seemed to find it very interesting. "It's really good news. Teacher, then I will trouble you." "Why even you talk stupid things with them." After Shinobu said goodbye to Machiko, he took Teppei and Harada to the shopping street. Today's Nakamura Electric Store is also full of children. They don't have enough financial resources to buy games, and they all come to play with the sample machines in the store.There is a long queue in front of the screen, waiting to try it out. "Are you riding your bicycle here?" Anin asked.The entrance of the store is full of bicycles, which is almost as grand as the entrance of the small steel ball store.Tieping and Harada nodded slowly.They were robbed of the game software by the same means. "I guess the robbers should be hiding somewhere and watching, waiting for guests who look like fat sheep to strike." Ah Ren folded his arms and said. "You're making it sound like we've grown stupid." Tieping said angrily. "Then what can be done?" Ah Ren said, "You have indeed become fat sheep. He must think that the fat sheep came out with a dumbfounded look on their shoulders." "It's really infuriating." "Yes, so we must restore our reputation." Ah Ren walked into the alley where the robbers escaped.The alleys are only a meter wide, not technically alleys, but fire lanes between houses, reeking of mud and piss. "If you escape into such a narrow alley, won't you encounter a dead end?" "It just so happens that this is not a dead end." Tieping explained: "As long as you walk the right way and are familiar with the surrounding environment, it is more convenient to take the alley." "Yes." Ah Ren nodded his head two or three times, and quickly walked into the alley. "It's going to the left here." When they came to the fork in the road, Tieping said behind him.Ah Ren immediately turned left as Tieping said. Unexpectedly, the boy suddenly appeared there. Ah Nin was taken aback, and the other party was also taken aback.The boy's long eyes widened. At this moment, Tieping and the others arrived. "Teacher, what are you doing..." Then, Tieping said "Ah!" and pointed at the boy.The boy immediately turned around and ran away. "That's him, he's the robber." When Harada, who was always slow to respond, yelled, Ah Ren and Tieping had already chased him out.Shinobi is wearing jeans and sneakers today. "Teacher, you have to go to the right there." Tieping yelled behind Aren, to show her the way.In other words, the boy had already disappeared without a trace.Ah Nin recalled that Tieping had said before: "He runs super fast." It was indeed fast. Although narrow alleys are more beneficial for children, even after deducting this factor, his footsteps were still super fast. When Ah Ren came to the main road, the boy had disappeared for a long time.Tieping arrived later and said angrily: "I was also thrown away by him here yesterday, and he ran away again today." Ah Ren looked left and right again, but there was indeed no sign of the boy, only the figure of the housewife preparing to go home and cook.
