Since someone was treating him, Fang Zheng naturally didn't hesitate to do so. He not only ate the entire menu of the cafe, but even packed up a bunch of food - this made Arisu Sakayanagi's eyes twitch when he saw it nearby, but he still had to maintain an elegant smile. Fang Zheng, on the other hand, didn't care about this. He smiled and picked up a bag of things, greeted Arisu Sakayanagi, then turned around and left, leaving Arisu Sakayanagi at the door and ignored him.
It's simply the typical case of someone taking everything, wiping his mouth and walking away.
After leaving the coffee shop, Fang Zheng turned around and headed back the way he came. Seeing this scene, Meigan, Mengmeng and others who were hiding in the back immediately retracted their heads in fear. However, before they could get any further away, they saw a dark shadow covering them. When they looked up, they saw Fang Zheng standing beside them, staring at everyone.
"Hey, it's rare to see you two out together, shopping?"
“Ah, ahahahahaha…”
In response to Fang Zheng's question, Meng Meng laughed dryly.
"Yes, I came here to go shopping with Mikan and the others. What a coincidence, Mr. Yuuki."
"What a coincidence. Come, eat."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng handed over the packed food in his hand.
"This is……?"
"You've been following me for a whole day, so you must be hungry. You should eat something. The food in that restaurant is pretty good."
"Well……"
Meikan reached out to take the snack, sweating profusely - it was obvious that her brother had already noticed that they were following her.
"Eat early and go home early."
Fang Zheng didn't say anything more, just gave a few instructions, then turned around and left. It wasn't until Fang Zheng was far away that everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other...
"It's okay, go home."
Time passed quickly, and soon it was the eve of the Joint School Festival.
As for Fang Zheng...
“This is all we can do now.”
After confirming the placement of the instrument again, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly. The most difficult part of the core of this stage was Lala's invention. Fang Zheng led Lala to experiment hundreds of times before finally determining a basic model that could be used. However, even so, this thing still has defects. According to Lala, this machine can only last for a maximum of ten hours, and you have to be careful not to break it - after all, once Lala's invention is damaged, the failure rate will immediately increase by one thousand percent.
In addition, the transformation hairpins were also prepared, and Fang Zheng also specially assigned them a time to change the transformation hairpins according to the program of each school - the clothes of the transformation hairpins were not like those of the magical girls, which could be changed at will. It can be said that every time the transformation hairpins changed a set of clothes, it meant that the previous set of clothes was directly erased. Therefore, Fang Zheng had to let them change clothes according to the rhythm of the program.
Otherwise, if the order is accidentally disrupted, it might turn into a shameful play in the wild.
It seems like there is such a plot in the book?
"I'm so tired... We should go back..."
Nana had collapsed on the ground. Lala didn't dare to let Lala check her invention. After all, according to Lala's standards, her inventions would not have any problems. So he took Nana and Mengmeng to check the entire stage in detail. Poor Nana was usually careless and couldn't stand such meticulous work. Usually, she would just move materials here, which was not a big deal for Deviluke's physique.
But it would be really difficult for Nana to check every screw one by one.
"Yeah, almost."
Fang Zheng lowered his head, looked at his watch, and nodded.
"You guys go back first."
"Hey? Aren't you going to go back, Mr. Yuuki?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Meng Meng was stunned for a moment, while Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.
"I'm staying here tonight."
"Hey? Why?!"
At this moment, Nana also rolled over and climbed up from the stage, looking at Fang Zheng in confusion.
"The stage has been inspected, so there should be no problems, right?"
"Be prepared for the worst."
Fang Zheng shook his head. He was the protagonist of this world, and this joint school festival was obviously a large-scale plot line. According to the plots of novels, animations, games and comics, it was not so easy. Oh, we are ready here. The joint school festival will start tomorrow, and then everyone will happily perform and everyone will be happy?
There's no plot conflict at all!
And even though Fang Zheng has checked it now and confirmed that there are no problems, who can guarantee that there will be no problems after he leaves?
For example, a mouse suddenly came in and chewed through the wires. Or maybe someone behind the scenes was planning to cause trouble and secretly came here to set a trap, or even worse, set a fire. In this way, when Fang Zheng came back at dawn, the stage in front of him might be burned to ashes.
After all, the plot is about "conflict".
What's the point of just going through it smoothly and securely?
Of course, this is still a hardware problem. Even if nothing goes wrong on the stage, there may be problems with the performers. For example, a school idol was too excited the night before the performance and didn’t sleep well. The next day, he caught a cold and had a fever of 40 degrees. He could only go on stage despite being sick, and then fainted in public...
In order to avoid any unexpected events, Fang Zheng decided to stay at the venue tonight.
I just don't believe that you can create a magnitude 10 earthquake and tsunami for me just for the sake of plot conflict?
Is this scene planning to turn into Disaster City?
You're going to turn this nice school idol drama into a disaster movie?
It’s impossible that the idols are singing and dancing and then a UFO appears above their heads.
Oh, I'll have to ask Xiao Hei to keep an eye on her for me later. If it rains heavily tomorrow, I'll have to rely on her to drive away the clouds.
Fang Zheng naturally couldn't tell Nana and Mengmeng about this, but they seemed to have their own understanding.
"By the way, you are afraid that guy will come and cause trouble!"
Hearing this, Nana clapped her hands vigorously. She had heard that some gangsters went to the venue to block the door that day. Fortunately, Nana went out to play with Yaya that day, otherwise, with Nana's temper, she would have beaten up the gangsters long ago.
By the way, Fang Zheng had no idea what happened to Nan Yunya later on. Anyway, the next day, the group of men in black suits gave him a big gift—a box containing two fingers.
Well, it is indeed a very underworld and hardcore way of apologizing.
Fang Zheng just let them do what they wanted. Even if they tied up that idiot and sank him in Tokyo Bay, it would have nothing to do with him.
"Almost. Anyway, you don't want to wake up tomorrow morning and see the stage in a mess, so it's better to be on the safe side."
"Then I'll stay too!"
Hearing this, Nana immediately gritted her teeth and waved her fists.
"If that guy dares to cause trouble again, I'll show him how powerful I am!!"
"Then I'll go buy a few drinks."
Mengmeng did not express her determination like Nana did. She always relies on actions.
"What would you like to drink, Mr. Yuuki?"
"Apple juice, coffee...anything."
Fang Zheng said that he wanted to see how the story would develop if he stayed here.
Of course, it's impossible to be idle. Mengmeng went to buy drinks, while Fangzheng and Nana put away all the wall panels and tents that were originally used to cover the stage. Originally, this was to be done the next morning, but in order to avoid any accidents, Fangzheng decided to do it first.
Fang Zheng and Nana were both people with much greater strength than ordinary people. They took down the partition in no time and then put it away again. Looking at the dim and quiet square in front of them, they felt a little bit fresh.
“Hehehe, this way, our stage tomorrow will definitely be the best here.”
Standing on the stage and looking at the "broken bricks and tiles" around her, Nana seemed quite proud. After all, she had spent a lot of energy on stage decoration during this period of time, and naturally hoped for a good result.
"That's for sure, and I don't want anything to go wrong."
Hearing Nana's words, Fang Zheng nodded. He had spent a lot of energy on this and didn't want any "plot" to ruin it all.
Sitting on the stage and looking at the scenery in front of her, Nana felt very fresh. She had never done such a thing outside before. Although the dim square and the messy scenery around made people feel a little nervous, but... thinking of this, Nana secretly glanced at Fang Zheng who was sitting next to her.
This seems to be a good idea.
To be honest, Nana had mixed feelings about Fang Zheng. On the one hand, Fang Zheng was the candidate for her sister Wang's fiancé, but he was always having affairs with other girls, which made Nana unhappy. Unlike Meng Meng, Nana still preferred stories where the couple stayed together, so in Nana's opinion, Fang Zheng's behavior was a sign of being unfaithful.
But on the other hand, Nana did feel attracted to Fang Zheng. In fact, after that day, every time she saw the red-faced photo of herself taken by Fang Zheng on her phone, she felt her heart pounding and had an inexplicable impulse. She always felt safe by Fang Zheng's side, and even wanted to stay here just by hearing his voice.
Could it be that... I have fallen in love with him too? !
Thinking of this, Nana shook her head desperately.
No way, he is Sister Wang’s fiancé, how could I betray Sister Wang?
but……
Looking at Fang Zheng beside her, Nana hesitated for a moment, then quietly moved closer.
Just sit a little closer, it should be fine...
"Mr. Yuuki, I bought the drinks."
Just as Nana was carefully moving her butt, trying to get closer to Fang Zheng, Mengmeng's voice suddenly rang out, scaring Nana, and she quickly turned around again to distance herself from Fang Zheng.
"Oh, thank you."
After taking the drink, Fang Zheng thanked Meng Meng, who smiled slightly, then walked to Nana and handed her a bottle of juice.
"What's wrong? Nana, your face is so red, what happened?"
“No, nothing…!”
As Nana spoke, she turned her head away shyly, while Mengmeng looked at Nana with a smile without saying a word.
