On the bus, Hoshino Seri admired the scenery outside the window, her beautiful eyes sparkling, her gaze deep and clear like a pool of autumn water.
Bai Yuze, sitting next to him, was already feeling sleepy as soon as he got into the car. Since it was their first date, he had gotten up early to do this and that and hadn't slept well at all.
Sure enough, as soon as I got on the bus, I glanced at the navigation and realized that the distance was quite far, about an hour or two.
He leaned back in his chair and comfortably dozed off.
When he woke up, Hoshino Seri's cute face was already close to his, her bright eyes sparkling with expectation and concern.
"Time to wake up, Teacher Xiaobai, we've arrived."
"Oh, okay." Bai Yuze blinked, noticing that the bus display showed they were one stop away.
"I slept really well."
Bai Yuze lifted himself off Hoshino Seri's shoulder and stretched comfortably.
"We're even now. Last time I slept leaning on you, this time you slept leaning on me."
Hoshino Seri smiled brightly and extended her slender fingers, making a one-to-one gesture.
To everyone's surprise, Bai Yuzhe immediately opened his phone's camera and flipped it over to carefully examine his face.
"Teacher Xiaobai, what are you doing?"
As soon as Hoshino Seri finished speaking, she suddenly froze, puffed out her cheeks, and glared fiercely at Bai Yuze: "Teacher Bai!"
Don't judge others by your own petty standards!
"hey-hey."
Bai Yuzhe smiled and opened his WeChat Moments. The first post he saw was from Hoshino Seri, which included photos of her under a sea of wisteria blossoms, photos of her with the children at the orphanage, and a photo of her sleeping against her.
There was no text accompanying it, just a few simple photos, yet they explained everything.
Notice Bai Yuze scrolling through his WeChat Moments next to him. Hoshino Seri, sitting beside him, has a slightly flushed face. "My photography skills are limited, please forgive me, Teacher Bai."
"It doesn't matter, your photos are excellent!"
Bai Yuze carefully preserved these photos, knowing they would become his most cherished memories. He happily took Hoshino Seri's small hand, and amidst the smiles and reminiscences of the middle-aged and elderly people around them, they stepped off the bus.
Not long after the two got out of the car, Hoshino Seri's phone vibrated.
She picked it up and took a look.
Someone left a comment below the post on WeChat Moments:
Hoshino Saki: Oh, is this my brother-in-law? He looks so handsome... ::
Hoshino Seri glanced at it, her expression immediately turned cold, and she ignored it, turning off the screen.
Sunlight filters through the leaves of the trees in the nursing home, casting dappled patterns on the bluestone path.
Bai Yuze led Hoshino Seri by the hand into the courtyard. As soon as they entered, they saw Grandma Tan, who had asked him for help finding her cat last time.
The elderly woman with white hair was sitting in a wicker chair, squinting her eyes and enjoying the warmth of the sun.
"Good afternoon, Grandma Tan."
"Hello, Grandma Tan," Hoshino Seri also greeted.
The old woman slowly opened her eyes. Her gaze lingered on Hoshino Seri for a moment, her brows furrowed as if she were puzzled. But when her eyes fell on Bai Yuze, a kind smile immediately appeared on her face: "It's Xiaobai."
At this moment, her gaze returned to Hoshino Seri, filled with enthusiasm and satisfaction. She scrutinized her closely and smiled, "This girl is really pretty! Shiro, you have excellent taste. I have to go tell everyone about this, so they can all be happy too."
As she spoke, the old woman sat up and nimbly slipped into the backyard.
Bai Yuze smiled silently and explained to Hoshino Seri, "These old ladies are just like the children in the orphanage."
I'm also a victim of the Kuroshio crisis. I like to come here whenever I have free time. Along the way, I've been thinking, why don't you bring all those kids here? That way, both sides can look after each other. The kids need someone to take care of them, and the elderly are afraid of being alone and need someone to keep them company. If the kids come, it will be more lively, and Linxi can go to school properly.
What do you think, Dean Hoshino?
"Okay, but..." Hoshino Seri nodded. Bai Yuze was right. It was indeed a good idea. They could even bring the elderly people from there here. The main concern was that there weren't enough accommodations here, which might affect the quality of life for the elderly women. Besides, they might not agree to it.
"Don't worry, leave everything here to me. You just need to bring the children over," Bai Yuze said with a smile, as if he had guessed her concerns.
After a pause, he added, "Remember to say nice things about me later."
Before Hoshino Seri could understand what the other person meant, he had already walked into the backyard and disappeared.
She was about to follow the other person inside.
Several kind-looking old women came out, took her hands very affectionately, and looked extremely happy, pulling her to sit beside them.
"Little girl, what's your name?"
At first, she was a little nervous, but gradually she felt the kindness emanating from these elderly women.
The tension in my body slowly relaxed.
"Hoshino Seri".
"A Japanese person, a foreigner?"
"Foreigners my foot! They are clearly citizens of Xia Kingdom. You should know that Dongying City has been an inseparable part of Xia Kingdom since ancient times."
"I knew it! How could Xiaobai possibly date a foreigner?"
Hoshino Seri didn't think anything was wrong. Japan had been incorporated into the territory since the Tang Dynasty. For thousands of years afterward, it was in a state of division and reunification, but basically every time the Xia Dynasty unified, Japan would be incorporated into the territory until modern times.
How did you two meet?
"We are colleagues."
"Hello, colleague..."
While Hoshino Seri was chatting with the old woman outside, Bai Yuze easily found his way to a bedroom on the first floor.
I saw an elderly man lying on the bed; he looked extremely thin.
The old man heard someone come in, glanced at Bai Yuze, and didn't say anything. He was rather taciturn. Bai Yuze knew the old man's personality. He carefully observed the old man and noticed that his fingernails were a bit long. He said, "Grandpa, let me trim your nails for you. It will make you more comfortable."
The old man didn't speak, nor did he move his hand.
Bai Yuzhe took the old man's hand from the bed and carefully trimmed his nails with nail clippers. His movements were very practiced, clearly indicating that he did this often.
Seeing Bai Yuze's focused expression, the old man's indifferent expression softened slightly.
Bai Yuzhe chatted with the old man casually, about school matters, various news events in society, and international incidents. He knew that for these lonely elderly people, sometimes companionship and care were more important than anything else.
As the sun began to set in the west, Bai Yuze finished trimming the old man's nails and then helped him tidy up his clothes and the surrounding environment.
Just as Bai Yuzhe was about to leave, the old man's thin, solitary hand firmly grasped his.
"Young man, I don't know if you're from the Abyss Security Bureau, but this old man has thought it through this afternoon. If we continue to let my granddaughter run rampant outside, I don't know how much damage she will cause to the country. This is all the information about my daughter. I hope you can arrest her as soon as possible." The old man took out a heavy envelope from a drawer on the table next to him. It looked very old, and one could guess that the old man had been preparing for a long time.
But if you're always reluctant to part with it, when it really comes down to putting righteousness before family, who wouldn't hesitate?
The moment the old man handed over the envelope, he seemed to lose his last bit of energy, lying on the bed: "If you're not him, then please give this to that kid Peng Liang. I was originally going to give it to him, but he hasn't come to see me in a long time, and I don't want to wait any longer."
"it is good."
Bai Yuze held the envelope in his hand, his heart filled with mixed feelings. He had inexplicably completed a side quest.
Witches are similar to magical girls; almost once their identities are exposed, they are caught almost instantly and have no chance of escaping. For details, please refer to the incident at the park in Dongguan City.
In order to capture those two magical girls of the [Scattered Leaves] level, not only was a demon-sealing barrier activated and a large number of abyssal monsters summoned, but a witch who had just broken through to the [Blooming Flower] level also came. This setup would be considered extremely luxurious anywhere.
He opened the envelope and glanced at it briefly, discovering that it contained not only photos of him before his transformation but also photos of him after his transformation.
This may indicate that the old man witnessed his granddaughter gradually transform from a witch girl upholding justice into an evil witch hunting magical girls.
Bai Yuzhe narrowed his eyes as he looked at the familiar figure. It was truly a coincidence that he had found the identity information of the leader of the Villainess Association.
The afterglow of dusk streamed through the bus windows, bathing the entire space in a warm hue.
Bai Yuze carried a bag and held a bottle of water in his hand, while Hoshino Seri leaned gently on his shoulder. The two figures looked exceptionally harmonious in the sunset.
"It's obvious that those kids really like you, Teacher Xiaobai. They took my seat on your very first day." The female teacher's words sounded like a complaint, yet also like joy.
"Of course! That way, all the kids will like me and won't like you anymore, and you, Hoshino-sensei, can give all your love to me alone!"
"Teacher Shiro, you're being too selfish," Hoshino Seri pouted, puffing out her cheeks.
"When you went to the nursing home, you took away all the care that was meant for me, leaving me to work alone on the sidelines without even the right to join in the fun," Bai Yuze said resentfully.
"That doesn't count..." Hoshino Seri said shamelessly.
Thinking about it, she blushed with embarrassment again, wondering which old woman had handed her the small cube. Her gaze became somewhat evasive at that moment, to the point that she... didn't dare to meet Bai Yuzhe's eyes.
"So, how does Hoshino-sensei plan to make it up to me?" Bai Yuze seemed not to hear her answer, staring intently at the shy female teacher.
After some hesitation, Hoshino-sensei finally decided to offer the wronged male teacher some compensation. "Shiro-sensei, what kind of compensation would you like?"
"Lap pillow!" Bai Yuze answered decisively, a rebuttal to Hoshino-sensei from a few days ago.
What does it mean that he's a giant in words but a dwarf in deeds...?
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yuze clearly noticed that Hoshino Seri's smile froze, and she looked at him with a complicated expression.
He let out a deep sigh. "Okay."
She suddenly understood why Ning Zixuan had put the drug in the tea that day.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Bai Yuze lay down on Hoshino Seri's fair thighs.
Here, you can directly experience the pleasant, feminine scent emanating from Ms. Hoshino.
"Um... Teacher Xiaobai."
Hoshino Seri looked at Bai Yuze, who was leaning against her snow-white thighs, and her voice faltered for a moment.
"Is there a problem?"
Bai Yuze opened his eyes and gazed at the beautiful face bathed in the setting sun.
"No, it's nothing."
Hoshino Seri lowered her head and watched Bai Yuze rub his hair against her thigh, which was making her feel a little itchy. In the end, she didn't say anything to tell him not to move.
Then, she placed her hands on Bai Yuze's head and gently massaged it.
The bus slowly drove along the road at dusk, the scenery outside the window constantly changing, but the man and woman inside seemed to be in a world that belonged only to them, with only each other and only love.
Bai Youqing:
The girl sitting at the back of the bus suddenly felt that she shouldn't have come today. Not only had she been fed dog food all day, but what couple would choose an orphanage or nursing home for a date?
I didn't see any scenery today, and I was also starving.
As dusk approached at the First People's Hospital of Yeqiu City, in a luxurious ward...
A young man lay in bed listening to a phone call.
"Today's goals, besides going to school, are also to go to Tianxin District to buy clothes. So far, everything is normal."
"Okay, let's go."
"Um."
On his hospital bed, Wan Jie summarized the information he had just received along with information he had collected previously.
No one asked him to do this, but he felt that if he did nothing, he would be letting down his boss's high regard for him and the life-saving grace he had received.
You should know that when he came back, he was practically no different from a good-for-nothing.
However, thanks to the boss's various actions, not only was his arm saved, but his legs also had a chance to return to normal. This made him feel guilty towards the boss, especially after hearing about the price that Qianyuan Mima paid. He wished he could kneel down to the boss on the spot.
With so much money, you could find anyone to spend it on, but you ended up spending it all on yourself.
These days, he always felt that he had to do something to live up to the boss's high regard for him, so he set his sights on the magical girl from Qiuyuan No. 1 Middle School.
A few days ago, one of the snake's henchmen died and the other was injured; the injured one was even captured.
Finally, Hiruzen blamed them for the cause. Wan Jie saw his boss's swollen right cheek when he came to see him.
Chigen Mima stood aside, heartbroken by Ye Qing's grief.
Wan Jie was even more eager to avenge him on the spot.
However, Ye Qing stopped him, not caring about these things at all, and instead told Wan Jie to take good care of his health and not to think about those things.
Wan Jie felt he couldn't stay confined to his bed forever; he had to do something for his boss.
Based on speculation, the Violet Mage is most likely still in the school. Given her strength, she must be a bit older, which means she could only be a teacher. So Wan Jie sent out all the newly recruited human apostles to keep an eye on all the female teachers in the first, second, and third years of high school. They did nothing but observe what was wrong with them.
To be honest, although this method was quickly discovered by the security bureau, resulting in the loss of most of their manpower, it wasn't entirely without its benefits. They actually discovered that a few teachers were acting strangely.
Their homeroom teacher, Ms. Chen Yuyi, was one of them, but considering that she was their homeroom teacher and had organized this donation, they decided to donate.
He hasn't revealed this matter yet. He won't say anything unless asked by his superiors. This is the best he can do.
Besides that, there's the donation from his classmates. He knows he's not exactly popular, and besides the eldest brother and Qian Yuan Mijian, Bai Youqing donated the most money this time. She even organized the event.
Wan Jie was still somewhat grateful to her. Although they were on opposing sides, he would remember this kindness.
