"I have a letter of thanks I want to give her."
"A thank-you letter?"
The male police officer was even more surprised by the words and leaned out of the room.
"Higashimatsu, come out for a moment, someone is looking for you."
"Yes, I understand."
A clear voice rang out, and after a series of pattering footsteps of small leather shoes, Higashimatsuyama Yone's beautiful figure once again appeared before Kobayashi Itsuki's eyes.
"Oh, it's you."
Seeing Higashimatsuyama Yone, a smile appeared on Kobayashi Itsuki's face.
"Officer Higashimatsu, thank you so much for yesterday. If it weren't for your help and guidance, I might not have had the courage to live on."
Kobayashi Itsuki spoke loudly, and his voice was very sincere.
When he used to scroll on Tik Tok in his previous life, someone taught him that when sending a banner of appreciation to doctors or police officers, the best way was to carry the banner and ask everyone where the person was.
It was a disguised way of helping the other party spread their reputation.
And now.
Because the Kōban was relatively small, doing so naturally made no sense.
However, Kobayashi Itsuki's voice still clearly reached inside the Kōban, and the effect was the same.
Not only that.
At this time, there were still many people on the street.
Upon hearing Kobayashi Itsuki's words, many people looked over.
Facing the gazes of her colleagues and passersby, Higashimatsuyama Yone's face immediately turned red.
Having only recently joined the force as a rookie officer, it was her first time encountering such a situation, and her first time receiving a thank-you letter.
Looking at Kobayashi Itsuki's sincere expression, Higashimatsuyama Yone pursed her lips, quickly waved her hand, and said somewhat flusteredly,
"I, I didn't do much. These are all the results of your own efforts..."
"Without your help, I wouldn't have recovered so quickly. I have nothing to thank you with right now, so please accept this thank-you letter."
Higashimatsuyama Yone's face grew even redder upon hearing this.
She quickly took the thank-you letter with both hands and then bowed to Kobayashi Itsuki.
"Thank you for your thank-you letter, I will definitely continue to work hard!"
After delivering the thank-you letter, Kobayashi Itsuki looked at Higashimatsuyama Yone and smiled.
"Delivering the thank-you letter to you makes me content."
"I'm going to look for a job now and start anew. Officer Higashimatsu, do you have any good suggestions?"
"I haven't been out much for a long time, and I'm not very familiar with the surrounding information."
Higashimatsuyama Yone, who had put away the thank-you letter, heard that Kobayashi Itsuki was seriously thinking about finding a job and wanted to start working hard again.
This ambition touched her quite a bit.
After all, according to Kobayashi Itsuki, her involvement played a significant role.
"Suggestions?"
"How about this, I'm also going out on patrol, how about I take you to refamiliarize yourself with the surrounding area?"
"I know some shops are still hiring, if you just want a job, it's good to give it a try."
"Then thank you very much."
Kobayashi Itsuki said gratefully.
Higashimatsuyama Yone quickly turned and returned to the Kōban, took her police cap from the wall, put it on squarely, and then greeted her colleagues.
Then she walked briskly towards Kobayashi Itsuki.
"Let's go, Kobayashi-san."
"Mhm!"
Higashimatsuyama Yone's mood had not yet calmed down from the excitement she had just experienced.
And Kobayashi Itsuki, walking beside her, was also somewhat excited at this moment.
It wasn't because he was walking with the beautiful police officer beside him, but because just as Higashimatsuyama Yone went back to get her police cap, he received a system notification.
[Ding, Higashimatsuyama Yone's favorability has increased, gaining 1 green treasure chest]
Along with the system notification, a green treasure chest appeared on the system page.
At the same time, Higashimatsuyama Yone's name on the system panel also turned green, indicating that her favorability towards Kobayashi Itsuki had risen to the second level.
Seeing this change, Kobayashi Itsuki suppressed the urge to immediately open the green treasure chest and silently thought to himself.
'The first two levels and treasure chests should be the easiest to achieve.'
'It seems that in the future, as long as there's an opportunity, I should interact more with the people around me.'
Knowing a name or something like that is incredibly simple.
Although, it might be a bit difficult for people with social anxiety.
But Kobayashi Itsuki believed that facing the benefits given by the system, even those with social anxiety could become socially adept!
"Kobayashi-san, Kobayashi-san?"
Suddenly, Higashimatsuyama Yone's voice beside him woke him from his contemplation.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I was just distracted."
Kobayashi Itsuki said apologetically, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"It's nothing, I wanted to ask if Kobayashi-san has any specialties or skills."
"That way, when taking you to look for jobs, it will be more focused."
Facing Higashimatsuyama Yone's question, Kobayashi Itsuki thought for a moment. Writing a novel, that certainly couldn't be said; it would be useless even if he did.
So what else was there besides that?
"I majored in early childhood education in university... Is that useful?"
The original owner chose this major not because he particularly liked children, but simply because he thought there were many girls in this major.
Before his parents died and his stock trading failed, the original owner was undoubtedly a socialite, living a colorful life every day.
"Oh, early childhood education? Kobayashi-san is truly a kind-hearted person. If I hadn't chosen to be a police officer, I might have chosen this path as well."
Higashimatsuyama Yone said with a beaming smile, her eyes full of approval.
"However, this major is indeed not easy to find a job in."
"But I remember when I was on patrol a few days ago, I happened to see a Kindergarten in our Futaba Town that was hiring a Physical Education Teacher, it's not far ahead, Kobayashi-san, you can go and try it out ~"
Being a Physical Education Teacher for Kindergarten children?
Kobayashi Itsuki recalled the original owner's memories from university.
It seemed that besides socializing and messing around with senior and junior female students, he didn't have many other impressions.
Fortunately, he did manage to get some qualifications and certificates, so he was qualified.
For him now, a Kindergarten Physical Education Teacher was a good choice.
The work was easy, and it included lunch.
Moreover, he could use the ample afternoon and evening time to carry out his plagiarism plan.
And if it was with children, increasing favorability should be very easy.
To say the least, just introducing himself and learning the children's names could earn him quite a few treasure chests.
If he was a little more interesting and earned a green treasure chest from the children, that wouldn't be too much, would it?
"Please, Officer Higashimatsu, please take me to try it."
"No need to be so serious, but let me tell you in advance, I only know about this job opening; I can't help with anything else."
"Whether you get the job or not is entirely up to you."
Note: Please give me good reviews and power stones itrings more people and more people means more chapters!
