Facing Usami's sharp gaze, Xiong Ji stammered, "Could it be... no... this is..."

"Where did you steal it from? You perverted bear," Usami said with a disgusted look, pressing her phone while glancing at Xiong Ji out of the corner of her eye.

"No... don't call the police! This is my own thing," Xiong Ji replied. "Is there a law that says I can't wear my own bra outside?" He frowned, putting on a serious expression. "Besides... I may be a pervert, but I'm not a degenerate! To equate a pervert with a degenerate is simply outrageous! Even if I am a degenerate, I'm just a pervert who's been given the title of degenerate!"

Cold sweat dripped down Usami's face, her mouth twitching as she continued, "So... that just makes you the worst kind of scum..." She curled her lip. "But... since you're wearing a bra you bought yourself, that means there's no victim, which means... this isn't an incident."

"That's right, that's right!" Xiong Ji replied.

Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi chimed in, "That's right, that's right, if you bought it yourself, there's no problem!"

"How could there be no problem..." Usami continued. "Indeed, this doesn't count as an 'incident,' but... as a man, wearing a bra in public is undoubtedly indecent, so I still have to report it..."

"Usami-chan, although what you said makes sense..." Xiong Ji interrupted in a deep voice. "But... to be reported to the police just for wearing a bra you bought yourself, don't you think this world has lost its so-called personal freedom?"

"The public security regulations exist to restrict the freedom of perverts like you," Usami said with a smile, holding her phone. "Besides... I just like filing reports, is that so wrong?"

"Please, stop!" Xiong Ji pleaded. "Every time, you call the police for such a small matter, it's as if... you can't show your underwear anywhere except in the bathroom and at home!"

"Isn't that obvious..." Hearing this godlike dialogue, Xiao Tan was shocked. He thought to himself, "What kind of world exists in that perverted brain of yours!"

"Alright! Xiong Ji!" At this moment, Feng Bujue took action. "Shut your trap!" he cursed, tearing off Xiong Ji's bra.

"Ha~" Xiong Ji was stunned by the action, but only cried out and didn't resist.

"Okay." Jue-ge held up the pink bra, turning to Usami and Nyami. "He's already taken off the bra." He pointed to Xiong Ji. "It's summer, so it's normal for a boy to not wear a shirt and carry a schoolbag, right?"

"Hmm... since Maosaburo has said so..." Usami pondered for a moment and put down her phone. Then, she looked at Xiong Ji and said, "Okay... I'll hold off on calling the police for now. Today, I'll observe your behavior and attitude during the outing. If you're honest and proper, I won't send you to the health clinic."

"Eh? Health clinic?" Xiong Ji asked strangely, "Not the police station?"

...

Thirty minutes later...

The five of them continued north, unknowingly walking several kilometers.

"Jue-ge..." Xiao Tan, with his excellent eyesight, seemed to have noticed something. He subtly turned to the side, quietly saying to Feng Bujue, "At eleven o'clock, about 1.2 kilometers away, there's a group of people gathered..."

"Roger that," Feng Bujue responded, then added, "That's probably the 'scene of the crime.' Don't make a fuss yet, let's get closer and see what's going on." As he said this, his eyes were fixed on Xiong Ji in front of him, looking... more worried about Xiong Ji committing a crime and being caught than about the side quest.

The group walked for a while longer, and soon arrived near "that group of people."

"Ah! It's Officer Inunosuke," Nyami said, looking over there from several dozen meters away.

Because Inunosuke was wearing a police uniform and his fur was white, even animals with not-so-good eyesight could recognize him from far away.

"Oh! Could there have been some kind of incident here!" Xiong Ji exclaimed excitedly.

"Let's go take a look," Usami said.

So, before Jue-ge and Xiao Tan could say a word, the group had already headed over there...

At that moment, four "people" and a horse were standing on that patch of grass.

The horse was a white horse with a saddle.

The "people" were the following four...

First, the familiar Officer Inunosuke; second, a bald monk wearing an orange-yellow kasaya; third, a monkey spirit with a red scarf around its neck and a golden hoop on its head; and fourth, a kappa spirit wearing blue ancient clothing and green skin.

As he approached, Feng Bujue could see the faces of those guys clearly.

In that instant, his balls hurt even more...

"It's you guys..." Two seconds later, Jue-ge lowered his head and rubbed his forehead, thinking to himself, "Speaking of which... you and Xiong Ji are from the same universe... the Hiyori universe is connected..."

Before Feng Bujue could catch up with the terrible development in front of him, Usami had already begun to chat with them: "Officer Inunosuke, did something happen here?"

"Oh, it's Usami-chan," Inunosuke turned to look at the five children. "There's been an incident here."

"See! Usami-chan, it really is an incident!" Xiong Ji chimed in.

"What kind of incident? Officer Inunosuke," At this time, Feng Bujue also stepped forward, putting on a solemn expression, and asked, "If it's convenient, tell us about it, maybe we can help."

"Oh~ oh!" Xiong Ji cheered from the side, "We'll get to see the long-awaited showdown of detective reasoning again!"

"If you're not the culprit... there might be a bit of a showdown..." Xiao Tan muttered softly.

"Hmm..." On the other side, Inunosuke considered for a few seconds, looking at Usami and Jue-ge. "This morning, the station received an anonymous phone call. The caller claimed that he witnessed a murder case, and the location was by a stream about ten kilometers away from here." He paused for a moment. "According to the caller's description, he saw a human, a monkey, and a kappa attack a pig together, and then they led a white horse westward." As he spoke, he glanced back at the three behind him. "So, I tracked them all the way on foot and happened to run into these three guys..."
