Chapter 190 : Grandpa Kinoshita's Birthday Party (3)

"There has to be a mistake," Grandpa Kinoshita said. "Midori-san is a smart and sensible young lady. She will never engage in a criminal act and deliberately endanger other people."

Tsukasa cleared his throat.

"I think so, too. Officers, if you don't believe Old Master Kinoshita, you are free to inspect the ingredients Midori-san uses to prepare the drinks."

"Then, we will do that. Excuse us, please show us to the drink preparation area."

The officers moved toward the drink stall, where Mai and Yuri huddled together in fright.

The men searched the stall thoroughly, but they were unable to find the cassava roots. The leader of the operation was both confused and mortified. Grandpa Kinoshita stepped next to Midori and said in a triumphant voice, "I knew that this was a gross misunderstanding. Rest assured, Midori-san, I will make sure that the anonymous reporter gets what the person deserves."
