Three bicycles suddenly stopped in front of Mochizuki's house.I was still wondering who this was, but when I took a closer look, it was the "vegetable trio" we were talking about just now. Zappa seemed to see something joyful, and said excitedly: "The trio who love each other have appeared together, and they are really inseparable." "The trio who are in love with each other should just have fun on their own, and stop pestering Hyung and Keiichi-kun." "They must be bored." "boring?" "It's just three people, and it gets boring over time, so they want to mess with people. That's how it should be? They don't have any ideas of their own."

"What idea?" "Even they can come up with fancy ideas. They can't come up with more interesting new games, so they can only have fun by bullying their classmates. This is a complete exhaustion of inspiration." "That's right." I didn't agree with Zappa's statement, so I had to echo it.I tried to say hello to three bicycles, and they all replied: "★Φ※!" "Are you Heng's friends?" At this moment, Yu Zi came home, and she came home earlier than usual today. "Ah, yes. We have something to show Heng-kun." Sato replied politely, straightening his back.Yamada and Iida also greeted politely. "We were trying to ring the doorbell."

"Excuse me, is it convenient for us to park our bicycles here? We'll leave later." Oops, acting like a model schoolboy. "Wait a minute, I'll call Heng to come out." "Okay, please." The three said loudly and heartily, and bowed. When Ikuko walked into the house, Sato smirked: "Toru's mother is very easy to lie." Yamada nodded: "Adults think that being polite is a good boy." "Yes." Iida answered briefly. "These young masters are so arrogant," Zappa said. "Maybe kids are more or less like that," I said, silently calculating the odds of them becoming Mr. Tanker.

Soon after, Heng came out, visibly reluctant.He was holding a magazine in his hand, probably only halfway through it. "Why are you looking for me again today?" "Just to report something to you." Yamada said with a smile. "Report?" "Yes. Keiichi is very disobedient recently, and he doesn't go with us when we go to cram school." Iida stepped forward.The way this big man squeezed in between the two was quite scary. "oh, I see." "You thought 'Oh, that's it' and you're done? You must have encouraged that guy."

"Did I let him break off with you?" As soon as the words came out, Heng seemed to think that the three people might not understand the meaning of "break off", so he changed his words and said, "Did I let him leave you? It was Keiichi-kun who made the decision himself." Determination, I just pushed in the back." "So, it's all your fault." Iida blamed, but the excitement could not be concealed in his tone. "It was Keiichi-kun who planned to do this himself, how can you blame me?" "That's not what I mean, I mean, it's all your fault that the video will be circulated on the Internet."

"What?" Henry's complexion changed drastically.Iida and the others seemed to have noticed it too. They are eager to try, planning to take advantage of the momentum to attack when the enemy's spirit is greatly reduced. Yamada took a smartphone out of his pocket and started working. "Look, people all over the world can see the picture of Gui Yi peeing his pants on the Internet." "Do elementary school students also have that kind of mobile phone?" I asked. "It's probably less. Probably his parents," Zappa said. Heng stared at Yamada's cell phone, and what was probably playing on the screen was the video from the last time the glass was broken.Heng covered his mouth without saying a word, his flustered expression frightened me.Iida and the others are even more proud.

"We haven't told Guiyi that the video has been uploaded on the Internet, so it's up to you to pass it on." "But, it's already been uploaded!" Heng muttered blankly, "There's nothing we can do about it." "Yes, it may be difficult to delete. Not many people see it now, but it will spread among classmates soon." Yamada seemed satisfied with his words, he nodded, and put the phone back in his pocket . "This is broken." Henry whispered expressionlessly. "Broken? It's all your fault. It's all because you support Keiichi and fight against us, that's why it became like this." Iida looked like a winner.

"Xiaolu, your second son is completely at a disadvantage." Zappa was worried. I, too, said worriedly, "Yeah." It was rare for Henry to be at a disadvantage. At this time, Heng bowed deeply to Iida and the others and said, "I'm sorry." Last time Heng apologized to them reluctantly, but today he is very serious and sincere. "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." The vegetable trio looked at each other with joyful expressions, and their faces were filled with a sense of accomplishment of working together to defeat a powerful enemy. "Why do you have to apologize? It's too late to apologize now." Sato said.

"Yes." Heng replied weakly, "It's irreparable." "That's right. It's irreversible." Iida also repeated triumphantly. "Yeah. One step late." Heng said again. "One step and two steps, it's too late if it's late." "Oh." Heng sighed, showing a regretful expression.He opened the magazine in his hand and said, "I just read this report." "What is this?" Iida and the others leaned over to look. "This is a weekly magazine that adults read. It often publishes gossip or sensational events about some artists."

Iida took the magazine and started to read, while Sato and Yamada on the left and right also stretched their heads to look around. "Xiaolu, what kind of report is that?" "How would I know." "Hasn't there been an ATM robbery in the city before? It happened again recently, and everyone in the school is also discussing this topic." Heng began to explain to Iida and the others.Although his tone was very polite and polite, his expression had returned to his usual composure. "The robber has not been arrested yet." "So what?" Iida looked up impatiently, as if reading the report was a lot of work.

"The reporter seems to have discovered in the investigation that these robbers are very big." "Impressive?" "They were scary, and they didn't know what they would do. It is said that they beat witnesses and sent them to the hospital." "Really?" "Anyway, there are rumors that they seem to have done this kind of thing in the past." I found Heng trying to suppress a smile. "It seems to have done such a thing", he himself thought this vague statement was funny. "So what?" Iida asked. "I heard that the robber used to drive his beloved foreign car around the city before the robbery, and stopped by." "Foreign car?" I seem to have heard of this somewhere. "They parked in the parking lot of a family restaurant." "So what?" "Look at the video you took again. It's the scene where Keiichi-kun and I broke the glass and were scolded by the store manager. You may not have noticed that a black car and a silver car were photographed in the corner of the screen." "Huh?" Yamada-kun fiddled with the phone to confirm the screen. "I got it. Those two foreign cars should be the robber's car." Heng pointed to the magazine and said, "Look, it says here that the robber's favorite car is said to be Alfa Romeo and Citroen." "So what?" "A few days ago, the reporter who wrote this story approached me. He seemed to be investigating very carefully. He asked me if I remembered seeing these two cars in the parking lot of that store. I know you guys took the video, so I just Tell him, my classmate may have evidence in his hand." Heng said indifferently, and pretended to be sorry. "Why did you tell him?" "Why? Because it can help the police arrest bad guys, no problem, right? Or are you unwilling to help the police?" Although Iida was afraid, he still stammered and said, "No, there is no reluctance." "However, there is one thing that I didn't expect." "Ah? What's the matter?" "The reporter is more talkative than I thought. The reporter is too bad, and has no common sense at all." Heng shrugged. "He seems to be spreading your video everywhere during the interview." "Ah!" exclaimed Yamada, who looked down at the magazine, and then read the last paragraph of the report. "According to insiders who know the robbers, if that video is circulated, they will dig three feet to find the person who took the video and take revenge. They are so ruthless." Staring at the phone, Sato yelled, "Ah, this is really a foreign car. Is this the robber's car?" "You can check the car models in the video, and nine out of ten it should be Citroen and Alfa Romeo." "How could this be?" Iida also panicked. "So, I just apologized to you guys. Of course, I didn't give your names to the reporter because the consequences would be disastrous." "Uh-huh." "However, as long as you want to investigate, you may be able to find out who uploaded the video. I think there should be traces on the Internet. I am really sorry. Now that it has been uploaded to the Internet, it is irreversible. If the robbers see the video, they may Find you." "how is this possible!" "It's fine if it doesn't." Heng expressed his sincere expectation. "Ah, and, you'd better read this report carefully. The last thing written is not 'allegedly', but 'heard of'." "Isn't it the same?" Yamada replied angrily.Heng covered his mouth, obviously trying to hold back a smile. "I see." I suddenly realized. "Little Green, what's going on?" Zappa asked. "It turned out to be Barter." "barter?" "It means bargaining. Last time, Heng asked Kengo Tamada to do something, but they didn't discuss the details until they got out of the car. I guess Heng asked Kengo Tamada to write this report." "Ask him to write a report? Does that mean it was fabricated by Kengo Tamada?" "Probably." I said, "No matter how I think about it, the Alfa Romeo and Citroen don't look like robber's cars, so I always find it strange. Because they both said that they met each other for the first time, and their owners were carrying out The healing journey just came here." "Little green, what are you talking about?" "Tamada Kengo fabricated this report by pretending to be interviewing." "Huh? I still don't quite understand." "Anyway, Heng wanted to scare Iida and the others who took the video in this way." "Just for this?" "Yeah. But..." Would professional journalist Kengo Tamada write a false report just for this purpose?This should be related to his credit issues.When I asked this question, Zappa said dryly: "You're just worrying about it. Weekly magazine reports are somewhat exaggerated and false, right? Reporters write a bunch of baseless speculation at length, Adding a question mark at the end, and then claiming that "it has not been asserted", is it not uncommon? Moreover, the target of this report is robbers, and they will not sue the magazine like politicians or entertainers. Therefore, Kengo Tamada wrote this Reporting doesn't trouble him." "That's how it is. It's only right for Yutian Xianwu to help Heng with this small favor." On the one hand, Yutian Xianwu wants to repay Heng's favor, and more importantly, Heng knows the truth of the tunnel accident, so he should satisfy Heng as much as possible. Asking is wiser. "Then what should we do?" Iida looked around in a panic, for fear that someone would attack him if he wasn't paying attention. "I don't know what to do." "Don't you know everything?" "If it were me, first of all, I would delete that video." Heng said. "Oh, that's right." Yamada hurriedly started to operate the phone. "If someone finds the video on the Internet, it will be a disaster if it is preserved." Heng continued. At this time, an adult's voice suddenly broke in. "Hey, what are you doing?" He seemed to be walking, but I didn't even notice. "Hi." Tamada Kengo greeted Hiroshi. Iida and the others were startled, and quickly raised their heads.They thought they had been discovered by the robbers, and trembling with fright, the magazines in their hands dropped to the ground. "What a coincidence. This is Mr. Yutian, the reporter who wrote the report." Heng introduced Kengo Yutian to the three. He was polite and thoughtful, just like a top student. Usually he is called Yutian Xianwu "Xiaoyu", but today he suddenly changed his name to "Mr. Yutian", I am afraid that Yutian Xianwu will also find it strange.However, as a reporter, after all, he reacted quickly, and he immediately said cooperatively: "Ah, yes, what happened to that report?" "No, it's okay!" Iida was so flustered that his tongue was about to tie up. "Is that so?" He confirmed to Yamada and Sato. "Hmm, nothing happened." The two replied in unison. "However, the video you took has been uploaded to the Internet." Heng deliberately pretended to be hesitant to speak. "What video?" Yutian Xianwu also pretended not to know. Jing Yitian and the others panicked and said, "It's okay, it's okay." "It has been deleted." I don't know if his brain was too fast, or he had already discussed it with Heng, Yu Tianxian patted his hands and said, "Ah, is it the video of the parking lot? I saw it too. It really captured those two foreign cars." "See?" Iida and the others looked at Kengo Tamada in surprise. "I searched online just now and saw that video. I downloaded it and saved it immediately. This thing can definitely be used as evidence." "But what if the robber finds out?" Heng covered his mouth with his hand. "That would be miserable. They will definitely not let go of the person who took the video." The vegetables trio were pale with fright. Zappa laughed. "The trio of vegetables has now become a trio of pickles. This scene is so fake, it's a magical development, and the elementary school students actually take it seriously." "You're still a child after all." "Ah, Mr. Yutian, can you really find out who took the video?" Heng said as if reciting his lines. "Well, if you want to check, you can find it." Hearing what Yutian Kengo said, the expressions of the vegetable trio became more and more rigid. "But, please don't check it, okay?" Heng said decisively, "Because it might cause trouble to others. Please don't report this matter, can you?" "Oh, that's it." Kengo Yutian didn't seem to buy it. "Hey, Iida-kun, what do you think?" Hearing Heng call his name, Iida straightened his back suddenly, and replied: "Mmm, yes." Heng narrowed his eyes and relaxed his expression. "Then, I'll explain it to Mr. Yutian later, so go home quickly." "Ah, um." "Yeah, yeah." Like a car that stepped on the accelerator, Iida and the others sped out, jumped on the bicycle, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Heng crossed his arms and looked at their backs with satisfaction. Kengo Yutian touched his general's belly and said, "Is that all right?" "Well, it's fine." Heng made an OK gesture, "In this way, Iida and the others will live in fear." "However, I will write a true report about the robbers recently. The photos of the robbers who escaped by driving golf are exclusive. Coincidentally, the reporter encountered robbers who escaped! How about it? This title is topical." "Xiaoyu, you can write whatever you want. You can write whatever you want. I just want to threaten Iida and the others." "I always feel that they were unfortunately targeted by you. It's so pitiful." I also feel the same way, but after this incident, Iida and the others will restrain themselves a bit at school.
