Chapter 216 Xiangzi is hiding something

On the third day, Xiangzi still did not go to school.

Although Xiangzi had been taught a lesson by Baihe Sanhui, he obviously knew his mistake but refused to change... Well, he did listen to his advice a little bit, and arrived at school just during the lunch break. Carrying the small brown schoolbag bought by Baihe Sanhui, he staggered and pushed open the door of the infirmary.

He didn't even notice that there was a little penguin sitting on the chair, concentrating on eating, and his body suddenly softened and was about to fall on Deng. Fortunately, Deng reacted quickly enough and stood up in advance. He didn't even have time to wipe the rice grains from the corners of his mouth before hiding to the side, holding his half-eaten lunch box and chopsticks in his hands.

If he had forgotten to take his lunch box, Xiangzi would have dove headfirst into the stir-fried cauliflower and steamed pumpkin, with his face covered in white and yellow goo.

It seems to be a members-only medical clinic. I'll wait and see if I'm sure.

"...Saki-chan?"

Xiangzi didn't respond. Deng swallowed the food he was still chewing, called Xiangzi's name in a low voice, and poked Xiangzi's blue-haired head with the end of his chopsticks.

"Are you okay, Saki-chan? Are you sleepy?"

Baihe Sanhui felt that asking questions was unnecessary. Just looking at Xiangzi's face with swollen eyebags, drooping eyelids, oily face and even a reflective nose, Baihe Sanhui saw himself in Xiangzi five or six years ago when he looked in the mirror before returning home after staying up all night in the Internet cafe.

Decadent and gloomy, life seemed to have started a countdown. If I didn't touch the edge of the bed for a second, I would fall to the ground and fall into a deep sleep.

Xiangzi must have been playing online all night! Which bastard got Xiangzi into playing video games?

It must be Xiao! He didn't even avoid Xiangzi when playing Go. Now he's causing trouble for the high school students. Mr. Toyokawa Sadaharu might have someone pour cement on him and sink him into Tokyo Bay for not educating him properly.

"Ah...let her sleep for a while with the light on. You come eat with me."

There's no other way. The infirmary is so small, and the table is so small. I can't let these little girls eat standing up, right? It's better to squeeze in with me than to stand and pick at rice grains like a street urchin.

And the lamp seemed quite willing, taking small steps and plopped down on a small chair beside it... Hey, hey, hey, why are you sitting on my lap, Tou Mo Ling? The scent of lavender is nice, yes, but my teaching qualification is in jeopardy!

However, before he could grab the back of the lamp's collar and lift it to a chair nearby, Xiangzi had used Flying Thunder God to get behind the lamp, gathered himself up, and lifted it up by the armpits.

Well, it was more like my mom telling me to do this and that while she was being sarcastic about me spending the night outside. That was my mental state at the time, and it was even more like the way I forced myself to sit back in the chair and fall asleep.

That's very lifelike.

"Lights... Girls can't, can't... get too close to boys... Huh, huh..."

Ms. Toyokawa Shoko is sleeping so soundly. I'd just ask you to tidy up your clothes a little. It's not very decent to wear a short-sleeved shirt under the school uniform. The straps of your bra have slipped down without you noticing. Your underwear is white and a very conservative style. There's nothing exposed that shouldn't be seen... There's no front view, but the side view is another matter.

Although Xiangzi is a beautiful girl picked out of a million, we are so familiar with each other that I feel embarrassed to have any bad thoughts... One last look, really one last look.

"Ahem...Ichiri-san?"

Kashiwa Sanhui blushed and looked away, then called out to Yili who was playing guitar at the coffee table behind him, and signaled with his eyes to plug the guitar into the portable audio equipment in the corner.

"Um, Doctor...are you really going to do this?"

Yili was a little panicked, feeling that if he did something bad like this, Xiangzi would be woken up and severely punished.

"Do it," Baihe Sanhui didn't care. Anyway, Xiangzi, the little bastard, didn't listen to his words at all. He even learned not to go to school, and you still expect me to be gentle with you. "I'll take care of it if anything happens."

With the endorsement from Baihe Sanhui, Yili strengthened his heart, closed his eyes, and then took out the guitar pick and strummed the strings fiercely——

"Uh-huh-"

Xiangzi was awakened by the sound that was so close to his eardrum and so strong. He looked around in panic for a while and found that it was Yili who breathed a sigh of relief after doing something bad, and then leaned weakly against the back of the chair.

"Doctor, please let me sleep for a while. I really know I was wrong~"

I don't have a buzzer here, please don't say such dangerous things.

"What's wrong?" Baihe Sanhui obviously had no intention of letting Xiangzi go easily. He asked casually while supporting his chin on the table and turning a pen.

"Not going to school——"

"anything else?"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense and things became interesting - in fact, Baihe Sanhui knew that Xiangzi must have encountered something in Xiaomutou, or in Mortis's palace.

After all, I only approved her leave for the morning the day before yesterday, but it was not until the next afternoon that I learned of Xiangzi's whereabouts from Li Xiao. I took advantage of the free time after get off work to make a special trip to confirm whether Xiangzi had encountered any problems.

The good news is that nothing is wrong. Xiangzi can eat and sleep well and is in very good health. Apart from some side effects of staying up late, there is nothing particularly serious.

So yesterday I just taught Xiangzi a lesson casually as a teacher, and after getting Xiangzi's promise that he would go to school on time the next day, I didn't think too much about it.

But today it seems that Xiangzi must be hiding something from me.

"And... huh, huh..."

He was pretending to be asleep so fakely. Who would sleep with their heels on the ground and toes raised up? - Baihe Sanhui turned around and looked at Ichiri, whose eyes were becoming more and more panicked.

"Ichiri-san! Bring the speakers closer and play another song!"

"Alright, alright!" Xiangzi woke up in shock from his dying dream. His face was slightly pale except for the sub-healthy look, but still slightly healthy. His eyes were full of dissatisfaction after his heart was seen through.

"That's what I said... I'm going to find Xiao Mu."

"Hey, did Saki-chan go find Mu?!"

In fact, the conversation between Kashiwa Sanhui and Xiangzi was encrypted, and Deng and Yili sounded like they meant something completely different.

"Yeah," Xiangzi nodded, pulled the chair further away, propped his feet on the seat, and rested his chin on his knees, hunching his back like a shrimp—a very unhealthy sitting posture. "I'm very tired, so please ask the doctor and the light to let me rest for a while."

But Kashiwa Sanhui had no intention of letting Xiangzi go. He simply stopped Xiangzi as he was about to go to the medical bed to take a nap, and then asked: "Did something happen? Otherwise you wouldn't be so tired."

"...I don't want to say it." Xiangzi's face looked really bad. Besides being tired and unhappy, he also had an indescribable feeling of...guilt. He added at the end, "I can handle it myself. Don't worry, doctor."

"I'm not worried. I believe you can handle these things. It's just—"

Although Baihe Sanhui stretched out his hand high and scared Xiangzi so much that he closed his eyes, in the end he just touched Xiangzi's head gently, and smoothed Xiangzi's sloppily and messy hair with a gentle expression.

"I think your energy is limited after all. If you spend too much on Xiaomu, you won't be able to catch up with your studies."

"Let me help you? You don't have to work so hard. If you're too embarrassed to ask, you can just send me a message secretly. Anyway, let me feel a little involved - we are a team, right?"
