On the way to school, Yingjing Tong stared at him fiercely, snorted coldly, quickened his pace, and then left him behind. Jiangchuan took a look and saw that he was still remembering the grudge from the morning.
He just asked the question in his mind, although it was he who said, "Strange can't tell the age."
but.
It is very intriguing that after his body was destroyed and he was reborn, Sato-san still pestered Sakurai Tou. Jiangchuan just made a bold guess. After all, in his previous life, he knew a guy who was actually a high school detective, but took medicine and turned into a child. He was unexpectedly famous.
Arriving at the school classroom, Jiangchuan greeted Nakajima Rie and Sato Hiroki, then walked to his seat and sat down.
There was still some time before class time, and Sato Hiroki started talking to him. The two chatted until Ibuki Akiko also came to the classroom. Jiangchuan took a look and saw that his neighbor was a little absent-minded.
As Mr. Miyano walked into the classroom, the bell rang. Jiangchuan ended his chat with Hiroki Sato and prepared the books needed for the first class.
The morning class passed quickly as I listened attentively. In the blink of an eye, it was noon. After calling out to Sakurai Tong, Nakajima Rie came closer to him and invited him, "Egawa-san, let's go to the cafeteria together."
Now that he had money, Jiang Chuan hesitated for a moment but did not refuse. Having lunch with friends from school like this occasionally was a normal social interaction.
In addition to him, Sakurai Tou and Ibuki Akiko, the four of them came to the cafeteria and ordered set meals. What made Jiangchuan slightly surprised was that the dwarf was willing to spend money to buy a set meal with vegetarian meat.
It's a good thing that he started to pay attention to nutritional matching. If Sakurai Tong can keep up with the nutrition of his body by practicing breathing techniques, this guy's strength should increase a lot in the next period of time. It's hard to say exactly, as this involves the potential contained in the individual's body.
Nakajima Rie carried the tray and they found a place where no one was around and sat down. She was very concerned about the fact that Sakurai Tou and the transfer student skipped the club activities yesterday.
The two of them are related to whether the strange research can continue to exist. It’s not long before the next student union review. If the attendance at the club activities is insufficient, it will really be disbanded.
She would do her best to prevent such a thing from happening. Nakajima Rie glanced at the two of them and asked with concern, "Sakurai-san and Egawa-san, what happened yesterday? Do you need any help?"
Jiangchuan and the dwarf looked at each other, and both found the problem in the words. They did not say that there was something wrong between the two of them, but Nakajima Rie treated them as a whole.
In other words, although it seems that Nakajima Rie has good intentions, whether she responded with a yes or a no, as long as she replied, it means that they were together after school yesterday afternoon. It is a trap in the words that is easy to be overlooked, and if you don't pay attention, you will fall into it.
Nakajima Rie was thoughtful. Egawa and Sakurai Tou didn't want their current work to be discovered, and if they dug deeper, they might find out that the two of them were living together.
The dwarf had food in his mouth and moved his lips slightly as if he wanted to explain. Jiang Chuan took a look and spoke first, "I'm fine. I just went back to the apartment to review the classes I missed. I don't know about Sakurai-san. We weren't together yesterday afternoon."
Sakurai Tong nodded vigorously to show that this was indeed the case and to cover up her guilty conscience.
“Eh…”
Nakajima Ri-e looked at the two of them once more. Her intuition told her that things weren't that simple, but since Egawa-san had said so and Sakurai-san had nodded in agreement, she tentatively believed it and replied, "So are you done with your work? Sakurai-san and Egawa-san can come to the club today, right? Momo-san was still studying yesterday, and the activity room looked quite deserted without anyone around."
"Can."
Ying Jingtong swallowed the food in his mouth and replied, "The work is done."
As for taking on the mission to exorcise monsters, there's still enough time to go to work after the club activities are over, as long as you take the train.
After the dwarf answered in the affirmative, Nakajima Rie looked at him again. Her baby-fat cheeks were slightly bulging, and if he refused, they would probably really bulge out, expressing her unhappiness.
He nodded and agreed, "Sorry to bother you then."
Hearing that Jiangchuan Hai had also agreed to join the club, Nakajima Rie's slightly bulging cheeks suddenly dimpled. She smiled slightly and said, "Seniors Tao and Yuzu will definitely be happy when they know."
Nakajima Rie was in a good mood, but she felt like something was missing. She had invited Ibuki Akiko to join the club before, but was rejected. From elementary school to high school, she knew that her good friend didn't like anything weird.
Even just once, Nakajima Rie wanted to invite, "Akiko, come to the activity room and play too."
Ibuki Akiko instinctively wanted to refuse, but she hesitated. It was rare for Rie to be so happy today, so she smiled back and nodded, "If Egawa-san and Sakurai-san are here, I'll go and bother you too."
"That's great."
Nakajima Rie clapped her hands happily, attracting the attention of other students who were having meals around her. Feeling that she was being rude in public, she immediately shrank her head, apologized to those around her who were affected by her, and fell silent with some embarrassment.
…
After lunch, the four of them returned to the classroom. His neighbor, Hiroki Sato, gave him a resentful look, his expression like that of a wronged young wife. Jiang Chuan knew why, so he smiled and brought up a random topic. The two chatted for a while, and then the bell for the end of lunch break rang.
After school in the afternoon.
Nakajima Rie invited the three of them to the door of the activity room.
Ibuki Akiko saw the pattern on the door. The indescribable and strange shape attracted her attention, and she was distracted for a moment.
Coming back to reality she asked, "What is this?"
"This was drawn by Senior Tao."
Nakajima Rie replied, "Senior Momo likes and is good at drawing, and this is the activity room of the Weird Research Club, so she drew these to add to the atmosphere. Isn't that great?"
Ibuki Akiko nodded. The pattern in the painting seemed truly bizarre, making people subconsciously mistake it for real. However, she did not like this kind of painting, as it would only bring about the judgment of a mask in the end.
Jiangchuan glanced at Ibuki Akiko, and was also attracted by the strange and indescribable pattern on the door of the activity room. In addition, the dwarf and he had had the same experience before, so he vaguely felt that the painting pattern on the door of the activity room was unusual - it seemed unreal but more real than real, and there was a feeling that he could not describe.
But the pattern doesn’t have an eerie feel to it, it’s not truly eerie.
Nakajima Rie pushed open the door of the activity room. Just like the previous times, Jiangchuan thought that they would be greeted by Senior Momo who had made tea and was waiting for them, but inside the room was Senior Yuzu who had taken off her glasses and was sitting on the sofa in a man's posture.
Seeing them coming, Shimizu Yuzu frowned. The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and then she said with a serious and earnest expression, "Nakajima, Sakurai-san, and Junior-kun, the urban legend Sato-san may have evolved."
