Seeing his expression on the phone screen, Ikeba Shizuka couldn't help but laugh out loud, her eyes full of doting affection.
"How old are you? Still acting like a child." Chi Bo Jinghua shook her head with a light laugh. She elegantly picked up the teacup on the table, took a small sip, and let the aroma of tea spread in her mouth. "Mermaids and such are just folk tales."
"But Master~" Yu Sheng Nan blinked, her tone incredibly soft, "What if it really is? And the seafood there is said to be especially fresh, we can go and try it together~"
Ikeba Shizuka raised an eyebrow: "Are you trying to fool me like Kazuha?"
"How could that be!" Yuzuru immediately sat up straight like a spring, his expression becoming righteous and indignant. "My master is much more precious to me than a mermaid!"
On the other side of the screen, Ikeba Shizuka burst into laughter again, amused by his antics. She sighed, rubbing her forehead, but her eyes were full of amusement: "You..."
She hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist her disciple's coaxing: "Alright, I've got nothing to do lately, so I'll just take this as a break."
"Yay! Master is the best!" Yuzuru cheered, adding, "By the way, let Kazuha and Master come together then."
Ikeba Shizuka looked at him with a half-smile and said deliberately, "What, do you think your master is too old and you need to bring a young girl to lighten the mood?"
"How could that be!" Yuzuru immediately protested, "I just thought Kazuha would definitely be interested too!"
"Alright, I got it." Ikeba Shizuka elegantly smoothed her hair. "But let's make this clear, if I find out you're up to something again..."
"I promise to behave properly!"
Yuzuru raised his hand to swear, but his eyes darted around for a moment.
Chibo Jinghua snorted softly, clearly not believing it, but her eyes were unusually gentle. After not seeing her for a while, she really missed her silly disciple.
After hanging up the phone, Yu Shengnan snapped his fingers triumphantly.
Done!
He knew that although his master usually appeared as a cold and aloof sword master and did not easily show his emotions, he was actually most susceptible to his cute and charming behavior.
.........
The following day, Monday.
Don't ask why yesterday was Wednesday or today is Monday. Just ask, that's the science of Ke Xue.
"Ring ring~"
As the bell rang, the morning's classes came to an end.
On the podium, the sexy English teacher with a hot figure said "get out of class dismissed" and while methodically tidying up her teaching materials, she unconsciously glanced at Yuzuru Nanagi, who was sitting by the window.
Judy is very distressed lately.
Ever since she tried to quit, the FBI has done a lot of work to persuade her.
Even the formidable FBI Queen is now caught in a web of injustice.
Especially recently, with the appearance of monsters and the news from the Black Organization that Hanyu Nan was selling exorcism holy water to deal with monsters, the higher-ups have become increasingly concerned.
This doesn't mean we didn't pay attention to it before.
In fact, prior to this, the image that Yuzuru Hanyu projected clearly indicated that he did not want his peaceful daily life to be disturbed by intelligence organizations like these.
Therefore, they could only observe cautiously from the sidelines, not daring to easily show themselves and disturb them.
But the appearance of the exorcising holy water gave them an opportunity to get close to Hanyu Nan.
Putting everything else aside, since the existence of exorcising holy water has been confirmed, it means that Yuzuru must have other items that can deal with monsters.
If they can successfully purchase these items, they will undoubtedly gain a significant lead and an absolute advantage in their competition with their peers.
Monsters don't matter, our fellow monsters must die.
If you want to buy it, then Judy has to step in.
It can be said that nowadays, almost every intelligence organization in the world with a name or reputation knows about Yuzuru Hanyu, so they all know that this god-like boy's favorite thing is beautiful women.
Judy, who received special attention from Nanami Hanyu during the last Nendoroid battle, undoubtedly meets the standard of beauty.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have enjoyed the enviable title of "FBI Queen" within the FBI.
The FBI, of course, wouldn't let this opportunity pass them by.
So, after that incident, Judy, who had only been slacking off for two days, was bombarded with repeated emotional and rational appeals from above, and had no choice but to return and continue being a teacher.
Life is unbearable; even giving up is a luxury.
However, Judy also had her own plans.
Those monsters don't discriminate, and even her task force was not spared from their attacks.
Their task forces, which are often deployed on long-term missions, are already facing severe funding shortages.
One bottle of exorcising holy water wipes out a month's worth of expenses.
If I could use my connections to get some favors from Yuzuru Hanyu, that would be the best thing ever.
.........
During lunch break, a gentle breeze blew across the rooftop, and the sun shone brightly.
Hanyu Nan leaned lazily against the railing, while Ran, Sonoko, and Momiji sat together, sharing their bento boxes.
"What delicious food did you bring today?"
Sonoko eagerly opened the bento box.
Xiaolan's bento box was as lavish as ever—golden omelets, emerald green vegetable salad, pink octopus sausages, and her specialty fried chicken nuggets, a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.
"Wow! Ran's cooking skills are getting better and better!" Sonoko exclaimed.
Momiji's bento boxes exude an aristocratic air—exquisite sushi platters, sliced premium Wagyu beef, and seasonal seafood sashimi, each small and delicate with meticulous presentation.
"The bento boxes from Momiji are still so high-class~" Yuzuru said with a smile.
Hongye smiled generously: "Prepared by the family chef..."
Sonoko leaned closer to Yuzuru Nanami: "Nanami, where's your bento?"
Yuzuru shook his head and took out a multi-tiered bento box from his bag: "Made especially for Akemi~"
Upon opening the lid, an aroma instantly fills the air—the top layer is fluffy omelet rice, the middle layer is pan-fried salmon and vegetable tempura, and the bottom layer is a variety of delicate side dishes.
"Akemi-nee's cooking is just too unfair!" Sonoko exclaimed dramatically.
Xiaolan couldn't help but exclaim, "It looks so delicious!"
As they spoke, the three of them turned to look at Sonoko.
I've seen them all, how about yours?
Facing the three men's gazes, Sonoko showed no shame whatsoever. Instead, she puffed out her chest defiantly and declared loudly, "What are you looking at! My bento box... um... I forgot to bring it!"
After saying that, she hugged Xiaolan's arm like a spoiled kitten, blinking her pitiful eyes and acting all cute: "Xiaolan~ you wouldn't bear to see me go hungry, right? I promise I'll remember to bring you next time!"
Xiaolan sighed helplessly, pushed the bento box towards the garden, then handed over a pair of chopsticks, saying, "I knew it would be like this... Here are the chopsticks, I really can't do anything with you."
