Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Mr. Dazai, are you a mummy?
04
Li Xiaoqi was eating udon noodles, the sour and spicy taste of Tom Yum Goong lingered on her tongue. The udon noodles were cooked just right, and the shrimps were very fresh and sweet. It could be said that it tasted much better than what she made herself.
She looked suspiciously at Dazai Osamu, who was eating happily. Dazai Osamu was slurping udon noodles, with his cheeks slightly puffed up.
Li Xiaoqi paused and suddenly felt that the way he ate was a little cute.
The red scarf made his skin look even whiter, and his pale cheeks, after being heated by the hot steam from the udon noodles, actually took on a bit of redness.
Dazai Osamu suddenly reached out and tugged at the tissue next to him.
"Feel sorry……"
He greeted me very politely.
Covering his nose with a tissue, he turned his head to blow his nose and stuck out his tongue to fan it.
"It's so spicy! I shouldn't have put so much chili in it... Doesn't Xiaoqi find it spicy?"
Seeing how painful he looked from the spicy food, Li Xiaoqi asked, puzzled, "Wouldn't it be better if you didn't put it so spicy?"
Dazai Osamu threw the tissue into the trash can, sniffed, and said rather pitifully, "I was wondering what the extremely spicy Tom Yum Goong soup would be like. It tastes good, but it's really spicy. However, this would be good with firm tofu."
He took out a small notebook and pen from his coat pocket, wrote a few words quickly, and put it back.
Li Xiaoqi pursed her lips, watched his movements curiously, and nodded in response: "Indeed, the tofu will absorb the soup and taste very good."
"Right, right!"
Dazai Osamu suddenly became excited.
"I feel... a little surprised."
Li Xiaoqi couldn't help but sigh when he saw him like this.
Dazai Osamu probably saw what she was thinking, and the exaggerated smile on his face faded a lot.
"What's wrong? Don't you like me in this state? Or are you surprised that I can cook normal food?"
The three questions that came out of his mouth at once made Li Xiaoqi stunned for a few seconds.
"ah?"
It seemed that this dazed look tickled his funny bone, Dazai's Adam's apple trembled and he let out a low laugh.
"I thought Xiao Qi would prefer Dazai Osamu from the Detective Agency, but it doesn't seem to be working out that well."
When Li Xiaoqi heard him say that, he blurted out immediately.
"Mr. Dazai, you are indeed imitating me."
Dazai was slightly stunned, and put his right hand on the table to hold his cheek, "Why do you say that?"
Li Xiaoqi laughed and said, "I just feel that it's a bit inconsistent."
"It's okay. As the leader of the mafia, Mr. Dazai should be whatever he wants to be. Don't force yourself."
Dazai Osamu paused his fingertips and avoided Li Xiaoqi's gaze.
He lowered his head, picked up his chopsticks and started eating again.
“…So spicy!”
Noticing Dazai Osamu's discomfort, Li Xiaoqi looked down at the udon noodles and said with a smile, "However, I'm still a little surprised that Mr. Dazai can make such a normal dish."
Dazai Osamu replied vaguely: "Xiao Qi, you can't generalize."
Li Xiaoqi was stunned and laughed.
"Too."
After eating, Dazai Osamu stood up very quickly, left the task of washing dishes to me, and then rushed into the bathroom to have diarrhea.
It seems that the extremely spicy soup irritated his stomach.
After washing the dishes, Li Xiaoqi saw that Dazai Osamu had not yet come out of the bathroom, so he kindly reminded him: "Don't add such spicy food next time you eat it."
Unexpectedly, the answer was a direct rejection.
"don't want!"
Li Xiaoqi shook his head and said nothing more.
"Xiao Qi, is your stomach okay?"
"No, it's okay."
“Isn’t it spicy?”
"It's spicy, very delicious. I like spicy food, the spicier the better."
Before closing the door, Li Xiaoqi shouted to the toilet.
"...The taste is very similar to someone I know."
Dazai Osamu's voice suddenly came.
Li Xiaoqi paused, raised his hands to cover his face, and stopped talking.
Shut up! Stop talking!
She shook her head, suppressing the instant pity she felt for Dazai Osamu.
Li Xiaoqi always felt that it was a bit strange to face him with that kind of mentality.
I used to think of him as just a character in a book, but now he is a living person standing before my eyes.
Suddenly, the corner of Li Xiaoqi's mouth twitched, "He did it on purpose?"
Judging from his attitude towards the barrage, he must know that he is a character in the book in another world, and she must know it too.
Since you know it but still speak so vaguely, it must be a trick.
Dazai Osamu, what does this guy want to do? He keeps trying to get close to her...
Li Xiaoqi was puzzled and simply let the problem go.
She opened the wardrobe and was surprised to find that there were several sets of clothes inside. There was even a whole set of famous brand cosmetics and skin care products on the desk. In addition, there was also a mobile phone. It must be said that the system was really thoughtful.
"As a broadcaster, image management is very important. Friendly reminder, broadcaster, don't forget to report to the cafeteria at Jujutsu High School at 7:30 tomorrow morning."
Li Xiaoqi was startled and patted his chest and complained: "It's too scary to speak so suddenly..."
The system fell silent, and my mind was silent.
Li Xiaoqi took out his cell phone, closed the cabinet door, opened the floor-to-ceiling window, and walked to the balcony to look at the scenery outside.
A fresh mountain breeze blew, bringing a slight coolness.
She thought of the world mission given by the system, which was to reach 100% map exploration.
This sounds like a game, but how do you explore it?
The system has not given any prompts yet.
Li Xiaoqi leaned on the railing and curled his lips. In the dim light, he could vaguely see the Japanese-style buildings standing among the lush trees.
She thought it was probably the teaching building, as there was still a little light coming from inside.
Suddenly, a voice came from below.
"Wu, wait, I—"
When she heard the sound, she looked over and saw two tall young men walking one in front and one behind on the path downstairs.
"Hurry up, hurry up, or the teacher will scold us again." The white-haired boy wore a pair of black sunglasses, put his hands in his pockets and looked back at the black-haired boy.
The black-haired boy showed a helpless look and complained: "It's already evening, what on earth is going on, teacher..."
"Glass has arrived."
The white-haired boy shook his phone and said casually.
The black-haired boy quickened his pace and spread his hands, "Forget it, let the teacher wait."
The two young men were walking side by side, and suddenly turned around to look at each other.
Li Xiaoqi blinked, and the two men's gazes seemed to stay on him.
Maybe the sight is too obvious?
Forehead……
There was no one else passing by, and with such a direct gaze, Li Xiaoqi couldn't pretend not to see it.
Out of politeness, she smiled and nodded as a greeting.
Xia Yujie smiled and raised his hand in response.
Gojo Satoru was puzzled: "Is there no new teacher?"
Xia Yujie said with a smile: "This is the staff dormitory, provided for non-teaching staff working in the school."
Gojo Satoru suddenly realized and shouted, "Good evening! Your pajamas are very cute, miss."
Li Xiaoqi smiled awkwardly and immediately hid back in the room.
She puffed out her cheeks, grabbed a pair of pajamas from the closet and ran to the bathroom.
The hot water gurgled and steam spread.
Li Xiaoqi raised the corners of his lips and smiled slightly, "They are indeed good-looking."

Perhaps because his thoughts were in a mess, Li Xiaoqi had a lot of messy dreams all night and was still dizzy when he woke up.
Similarly, Dazai Osamu was also dizzy.
The two of them didn't even have time to eat breakfast, so they hurriedly washed, changed clothes and went out.
Along the way, Dazai Osamu and Li Xiaoqi were in low spirits and complained a lot.
"Why do you have to get up so early to go to work..."
"That's right."
Following the signs on the road, Li Xiaoqi arrived at the cafeteria like a ghost, and she stood in the office with Dazai Osamu.
Sitting on the chair was a kind-looking aunt, about forty years old, with a somewhat naive smile.
"My name is Inoue Kazuko, and I'm the department manager in charge of student food. Mr. Dazai, Ms. Bing Jingyingxue, Diewu, and Ms. Qi, from now on, please contribute to the students' diet and health. I'm done with you."
Li Xiaoqi was completely awake and was so embarrassed that he dug his toes into the ground.
"Why can I call out this name so normally?!"
Dazai Osamu chuckled, covered his face and turned his head away, "Thanks to you, I am much more sober now."
Li Xiaoqi raised his eyebrows and saw Minister Inoue's friendly hand, and he shook it with gritted teeth.
"Thank you for your guidance, Director Inoue. Please call me Nana (Xiao Qi)."
Inoue was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
"Ms. Nana's real name is very long and very unique."
Li Xiaoqi shook his head frantically and retorted: "No, it's not interesting at all. Don't you think it's funny?"
Inoue, who didn't understand the old Mary Sue literary meme, was a little confused. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, "Could it be the legendary Chuunibyou?"
Li Xiaoqi's mouth twitched and he raised his hand to support his forehead.
"Chuunibyou is a different story..."
On the side, Dazai Osamu laughed even more happily.
"Nana-chan~"
Dazai Osamu took the opportunity to shout in a coquettish voice.
Li Xiaoqi glanced over and said, "Mr. Dazai, you've been calling me that since yesterday, right?"
"A man who starts to get close to you right away definitely has bad intentions."
Dazai Osamu clutched his heart and took a step back, "That's too much! I clearly wanted to be good friends with Xiao Qi."
Here it comes again... This state of Buteizai...
Li Xiaoqi complained in his heart.
Suddenly, Dazai Osamu leaned close to his ear and exhaled slightly.
"But, Xiao Qi, are you relieved by my attitude?"
Li Xiaoqi froze in place, staring at the shirt collar so close to him with wide eyes.
Dazai Osamu acted as if no one was around, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, "Xiao Qi, even though you said it so beautifully last night, you can't accept me like that."
"So, for the sake of smooth sailing in future missions, I think this attitude is more beneficial."
"No matter what this system is, I will return to my world no matter what."
When he said the last sentence, his tone became much colder.
Dazai Osamu straightened up and took a step back. Although there was still a smile on his face, his eyes were extremely cold.
Li Xiaoqi's fingertips trembled, and he forced a faint smile.
Quickly, she took a deep breath and wiped away the fear in her heart.
No matter what his attitude is, as long as I complete the task and pass the level, I can go back.
"You two have such a good relationship."
After they finished whispering, Inoue smiled and took out the prepared cafeteria uniforms and stuffed them into the hands of Li Xiaoqi and Dazai Osamu.
"Anyway, let's get to work now."
In this way, Li Xiaoqi and Dazai Osamu took the clothes and changed separately.
Before stepping into the locker room, she glanced at Dazai Osamu.
He was still wearing the black suit with a red scarf around his neck.
When Dazai Osamu and Li Xiaoqi came out again, they were wearing denim blue work clothes, white aprons, sanitary caps and masks.
She was wrapped so tightly that you could hardly tell her age.
but!
Since Dazai Osamu was tall, slender, and had well-defined joints on his hands, it was not difficult to tell that he was a handsome guy underneath the uniform even when he was wearing it.
There is one thing, even though he was dressed like this, his face and body were still wrapped in bandages.
Imagine a person with bandages all over their face, neck, body, and arms, a mask on their face, and their hair all wrapped up...
This looks like a mummy going out.
Li Xiaoqi was silent.
"Mr. Dazai, are you a mummy?"
Dazai tilted his head, "?"
My goodness, the dignified mafia leader has actually become a "canteen aunt", and a mummy version at that.
At this moment, Director Inoue, who was passing by, looked over and said, "This outfit is really suitable for Jujutsu High School."
“…Huh?”
Li Xiaoqi made a surprised sound.
"Minister, you have good vision."
Dazai Osamu gave a thumbs up.
