"What happened? Why are you so slow?" Uesugi Yui waved her hand and shouted at me as soon as I entered the range where I could barely hear her voice.

"I was just talking to Teacher Araki for a while!" I had to shout back at her.

"I hope it wasn't because the excuse to leave early was exposed, right?" Well... it was definitely exposed, but Mayumi Araki clearly didn't care about this kind of thing.

"It's nothing, just a few words, it doesn't matter. Besides, we should hurry and go. Time is running out." I patted Uesugi Yui's shoulder, hoping to help relieve her nervousness about skipping school for the first time, and then we headed towards the station together.

Since neither I nor Souren Manranyama could find the location where Baiyixin would pick up the truck, I planned to infiltrate before the truck left the factory and was handed over to Baiyixin.

For this reason, we took a bus to the JR station (Japanese railway station) and transferred to an express train to the parking lot of this truck rental company.

The time written in the delivery agreement was three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was currently two thirty, so we had plenty of time to think about the infiltration method.

In terms of business nature, this rental company doesn't have any problems. It is just a tool used by Baiyixin. Because of this, it is not fortified like a regular company, and there is only a general security guard at the entrance.

After going around the walls with Uesugi Yui, we finally chose a spot behind the office building. The height of the walls was the same everywhere, but we chose here because it was secluded and had the least chance of being seen after flipping over.

Although that's what I said, the wall was a bit too high. Even if I stood on my tiptoes and jumped with all my strength, I couldn't reach the top.

"How about this, Zhougong, you squat down and I'll step on your back to go up, and then pull you up." Uesugi Yui stood under the wall and suggested to me while comparing heights.

It sounded like a good proposal, but when I looked at Uesugi Yui's skinny arms, I couldn't help but feel that she wouldn't be able to pull me even if she went up.

"What are you looking at!" Although I just glanced at her, Uesugi Yui still caught my gaze keenly and scolded me softly.

"Although my arms are not thick, but I am the captain of the Kyudo Club. It should be more than enough to pull up a guy like you!" Uesugi Yui said while rolling up her sleeves and flexing her arm, seemingly wanting to show something, but I didn't see any muscles at all.

Since Uesugi Yui said so, there was no reason not to believe her. She was a person of words and actions, and I was clear about that.

"Then, Yui-nee, you go up first." I kneeled down and used both hands to support the wall, and then Uesugi Yui took a short run and used my shoulders as a stepping stone to jump up. It seemed like she grabbed the edge of the wall, but I didn't know if she could pull herself up.

I was about to look up when I suddenly remembered that Uesugi Yui was still wearing her school uniform, which meant that she was currently wearing a skirt that reached just below her knees. If I looked up, wouldn't that violate my principles as a person?

If I wanted to see the view under the skirt, I would have to lift it up myself. Any other way would be vulgar.

Uh, for a moment, it seemed like I said something problematic. Please don't arrest me, Mr. Policeman. Let me finish this infiltration investigation first.

"Did you make it up, Yui-nee?"

"Yeah, I'm up here." After cautious confirmation, I finally felt relieved enough to lift my head... Huh? What is that pink and white striped fabric?

In an instant, my gaze collided with Uesugi Yui's, and she immediately reached out to hold down her skirt, suppressing her emotions without shouting out. Instead, she stretched out her hand to signal me to come up.

"Actually, the stripes look pretty..." I wanted to alleviate the awkward atmosphere, but Uesugi Yui immediately gave me a fierce glare. Even without her speaking, her eyes conveyed her thoughts to me. The meaning was, "If you say one more word about fat pants, I'll make sure you regret it."So I obediently kept my mouth shut and successfully climbed over the wall with the help of Uesugi Yui. I have to admit, Uesugi Yui's strength is much greater than I imagined. How did she hide such power in those thin arms?

There are really countless secrets in a girl's body.

"What's the next step?"

Uesugi Yui walked quickly along the outer wall of the office building to the corner, cautiously peeked out with one eye, and quietly asked me.

"There are no patrols here. When there's no one around, we'll just slip to the side of the truck. Our target today is three cars with tail numbers A7 to A9. We just need to blend into one of them."

"Alright, I'll give you a signal when I have a chance."

Uesugi Yui spoke to me without even turning her head. She was completely focused on surveillance, which showed how enthusiastic she was at the moment.

For a girl, having such interests is really unique.

Although Uesugi Yui is in high spirits, my attitude is completely opposite to hers. Compared to the later plan, this place is quite safe. If I get overly excited now, it will only lead to premature exhaustion of energy later.

"Ziongzong, there's no one."

Receiving Uesugi Yui's signal, I looked down at the time. It was 2:45, which should be fine.

"Let's go."

The two of us rushed over to the nearest car, A7, as planned. As I expected, since preparations needed to be made in advance for the handover, the back compartment of the truck was not locked. This saved the trouble of unlocking. I looked left and right, then opened the back compartment.

"Hide in the truck."

I lowered my voice and suggested to Uesugi Yui while gesturing with my hand in case she couldn't hear me.

"Alright, let's hide in the cargo container. I'll go in first, and you keep an eye out for me."

Uesugi Yui understood what I meant and mimicked my actions to give me feedback.

After Uesugi Yui went up, I followed her into the back compartment and closed the door. It was pitch black inside the cargo container. I groped around and found a place to sit, then smelled a faint fragrance nearby.

"Is it Sister Yui? Why do you smell so good?"

It was an unfamiliar scent, so I instinctively didn't speak too loudly.

After a short while of my questioning, I finally heard a reply, a response that surprised me.

"Uesugi, I'm not your Sister Yui ."
