Human hearts are always biased. Even though he had gone through thick and thin with Yumi, Yuko was still the most important person to Chisato.
Cheng Shuang naturally didn't expect Qianli to be considering so many miscellaneous things. She made an excuse and took Qianli away from the noisy room to the corridor, intentionally guiding the conversation towards the secrets of the Onmyoji.
Qianli happened to go to the restroom. He leaned against the window in the corridor, dried his hands after washing them, and told Cheng Shuang everything he knew.
Onmyoji are neither human nor ghost; they are mysterious and can purify resentment. They usually appear when resentment has accumulated to a certain degree.
"Legend has it that a hundred years ago, a chaotic battle caused a surge of resentment. On that occasion, the Onmyoji (yin-yang masters) went out together and quickly subdued the resentment." Qianli put his arm around Cheng Shuang's shoulder and said in a low voice, "This story was mentioned in textbooks decades ago, but the textbooks were changed later."
"How did you know?" Cheng Shuang asked back.
"I saw it on Dad's test paper!" Qianli chuckled. "Although the textbook is gone, this type of question appeared on the test paper. Dad's grades were pretty good back then! Mom showed me the test paper to encourage me to study harder!"
"How come Akasaka's mother has Akasaka's father's test paper?" Cheng Shuang was surprised.
"You forgot, Mom and Dad were childhood sweethearts too!" Qianli scratched her head and said shyly, "I remember Mom saying that Kawakami's parents originally grew up together, but for some reason, Kawakami's mother suddenly transferred schools, and after their respective families fell apart, they got back together!"
Cheng Shuang frowned slightly as she realized something: there were far too many childhood sweethearts among the humans in this land of death. She used to think it was a coincidence, but now it seemed more like a deliberate act.
She was about to ask something when she suddenly heard a strange male voice approaching from afar. She quickly made a shushing gesture to Qianli and pulled him down from the window. The two of them crouched down and hid under the window.
Outside the window, the man's voice was deliberately lowered, sounding like a buzzing sound to Qianli, but Cheng Shuang could hear it clearly.
"I don't want to leave with the class either, but I'm suspicious of the other teacher's identity. He's been behaving strangely these past few days, so I'm taking this opportunity to observe him closely!"
"Yes, don't worry, how could I possibly expose myself before I figure it out!"
"That teacher... well, he was kind of disgusting. His attitude towards the indigenous people was extremely frivolous!"
"Yes, our class is full of middle school kids!"
"Yes! It disgusted me!"
