Chapter 14 "Scene 5" "Xiao Qin", my savior...
"Xiao Qin's mother doesn't love her."
"Xiao Qin's mother loves her very much."
"Xiao Qin's mother is a devil."
"Xiao Qin's mother is an angel."
"Xiao Qin's father loves her very much."
"Xiao Qin's father doesn't love her."
"Xiao Qin's father is an angel."
"Xiao Qin's father is a devil."
"Xiao Qin is a good kid."
"Xiao Qin is a bad boy."
"Xiao Qin will never find his mother again."
"Xiao Qin will always be with his mother."
"Xiao Qin will always be with Daddy."
"Xiao Qin will never find his father again."
"I'm Xiao Qin."
"You are Xiao Qin."
"I'm Mom."
"You're my mother."
"I'm Dad."
"You're the daddy."
......
......
......
"Xiao Qin, is your name Xiao Qin?" It was the voice of the [good guy].
"Um! Can you...?" It was a [Neutral] voice.
able......?
...What is that?
"Xiao Qin's eyes were still fixed on the endless [starry sky]. She had never remembered that there was a [starry sky] above the [school]."
"She had a terrible headache, the kind that made her feel like she was going to die."
"Hey, you guys..." "Xiao Qin" struggled to roll out of someone's arms and slowly stood up.
"Xiao Qin!" She saw "Ye" rushing towards her with concern, hugging her and starting to cry.
Behind "Ye", there was a woman with her face covered. Her appearance could not be seen clearly and she never spoke, but "Xiao Qin" felt that she was a [good person].
"Xiao Qin" pushed "Ye" away and pointed at the woman: "Who is she?"
"Yes..." "Ye" began to hesitate again, "Yes..."
"Xiao Qin hates people who hesitate the most. They're long-winded, annoying, and can't make their own decisions. Xiao Qin doesn't like them. Xiao Qin really hates them."
"Xiao Qin likes decisive people. They are smart, efficient, and can lead everyone to the truth. Xiao Qin likes them. Xiao Qin doesn't dislike them."
"I'm here to look for someone." the woman said.
The sound is very sharp, this is the evaluation of "Xiao Qin".
The voice is very gentle, this is "Ye"'s evaluation.
"The person you're looking for isn't here," "Xiao Qin" replied, "You'd better leave here quickly."
"Really?" The woman lowered her eyebrows.
She seemed a little angry, this was "Xiao Qin"'s evaluation.
She seemed a little sad, this was "Ye's" evaluation.
"To be honest with you, this is just an orphanage. If there's someone here you're looking for, no one will let you take her away even if you find her."
"Xiao Qin" stared at her fiercely and said, "Including me."
"Xiao Qin swore that she would protect everyone in the school, so she won't let this woman go."
The woman smiled.
She must look down on herself, this is what "Xiao Qin" thought.
She must have been so sad that she turned into joy, this was "Ye"'s thought.
"Yeah, Xiao Qin and Ye are such different people, how did they become friends? It's really strange."
"But the most important thing right now is how to deal with this [foreign] woman."
"Please make your choice!"
"Choice 1: Leave it alone."
"Option 2: Get rid of her (68% success rate)."
"Choice 3: [Protect] her."
「Choice 4:......(Unlocked)」
"Reminder: Tomorrow is the annual [assessment]. This [assessment] is not important to Xiao Qin, but Ye attaches great importance to it."
"This choice is limited in time. Players need to make a choice before the story character chat ends!"
"Ye, what do you think?"
"Me? I think she's pretty good! Why don't we just let her stay?"
"Do you know what the consequences will be if you are discovered?"
"Xiao Qin, when did you start worrying about these things?"
"Hmph, I don't mind. But have you forgotten what day tomorrow is? Have you forgotten tomorrow's procedures as well?"
"Oh! What should I do? But I..."
[The player has made their choice!]
"Forget it, I'll do it this time." "Xiao Qin" sighed helplessly, "Although you...well, you're not allowed to say anything nonsense outside this time! This is what you asked for."
"I know!" Ye took Xiao Qin's arm and nodded at the woman, a hint of excitement in her smile. "I knew you were the best, Xiao Qin! I'll definitely treat you to dinner tomorrow!"
"Hmph, just remember it."

A dreamless night.
"Xiao Qin, quickly change into your school uniform, the morning ceremony is about to begin!"
"Xiao Qin" stretched, sat up from the bed, and saw "Ye" putting on a sweater jacket.
She put on the [school uniforms] hanging beside the bed one by one and climbed down.
"What time is it?" "Xiao Qin" asked in a daze.
Ye handed her a box of water and said, "It's already 5:20. Here, your water. Hurry and take it. Be careful, or something will happen again."
"Xiao Qin" took it and put the water into his waist bag.
The two of them quickly packed up and followed the main group into the school.
......
"Hey, have you heard that there is a new handyman in the school!" Girl A said to Girl B.
Girl B was shocked: "Is this true?! The school hasn't recruited in ages! I almost thought the school was going to...!"
"Oh, don't say such things! With so many people here, there must be someone who can hear things from afar!" Girl A was so scared that she covered Girl B's mouth, looked left and right, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Girl B waved her hand: "You forgot, those who could hear the sound of a thousand miles away were eliminated long ago."
"That kind of magic is completely useless in the exam. They're so arrogant that they refuse to do odd jobs! Who do they think they are? They're just..."
"quiet!"
"[Dormitory] corridors must remain silent!"
"Anyone who makes any more noise will not be allowed in!"
Sure enough, the leader's ability is different. After a few shouts, the entire corridor became quiet in an instant.
"Xiao Qin" hasn't woken up yet. If she hadn't, she would probably have yelled a few words.
Humph, it seems she can't stand the condescending attitude of these [leaders]!
Anyway, no matter whether she passed the [assessment] or not, these people would not let her [drop out]!
"Oh, I really don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. But for the [bad boy] Xiao Qin, as long as he's alive."
"No, even if she dies, she wants her freedom to last forever."

"I'm so excited! It's our school's annual assessment and ceremony again."
"I'm sure everyone is quite tired. I won't waste any more time talking. Let's get started with this year's [Morning Ceremony] right away, shall we?"
The audience was silent.
"Haha, it seems everyone is really tired during this period."
"The school has decided to give everyone a month-long break after this assessment."
"What do you think?"
The audience remained silent.
"Okay. I'll get started then."
"First of all, I would like to thank you all for your contributions to the school over the past period of time. On behalf of the school, I would like to bow to you all."
"I believe the leaders have seen what everyone has done. They will continue to work hard to manage the school and provide a high-quality environment for everyone!"
"Secondly, we'll commend the [everyone] and [leaders] who have made outstanding contributions during this period. Those whose names are called, please come to the stage. I'll present you with [gifts]!"
“…”
“…”
"Ye, haha, you're an old acquaintance of ours! You're the one who always wins awards! Come up quickly!"
"leaf"?
As expected, "Ye"...
"Xiao Qin" was still deep in sleep and woke up when he heard "Ye"'s name.
She watched the girl next to her smile at her and quickly run towards where thousands of spotlights were gathered.
——She laughed happily, she laughed so happily, she was so eager.
"Xiao Qin never had any reason to stop Ye because she was a [bad kid], and Ye was a very good [good kid]."
"Congratulations to the above for winning the 'Most Contribution Award'!"
"Let's congratulate them!"
......
"Xiao Qin, look, my first..." "Ye" held her [gift] and showed it to "Xiao Qin".
"The ninth one." "Xiao Qin" continued her words.
"Yes, yes!" "Ye" was very happy and couldn't help laughing.
The man on the stage cleared his throat and continued, "Alright, alright. I'm sure everyone is very excited! But the more exciting things are yet to come!"
"Our annual [assessment] is about to begin!"
"This [Assessment] is divided into two major sections. The first is the [Magic] test, and the second is the [Practical] test."
"That's right. Now the [Assessment] has a new section called [Practical Combat], which is also to allow everyone to better contribute to the [School]!"
"Then, those whose names I call, please follow me to the [Magic Test Room] for the first [Test]!"
......
"Xiao Qin," "Ye" nervously pulled "Xiao Qin's" sleeve, and the two were walking towards the [Magic Testing Room] in the team.
"Do you think my magic power will improve? Will I fail? Will it decline again? Will I..."
"Stop, stop, stop. I'm very sleepy now. You'd better be quiet." "Xiao Qin" covered his ears and turned to glare at "Ye".
"Ye" shut his mouth awkwardly and followed behind with a feeling of grievance.
"Ye, why are you still walking with her?" Behind "Ye", a girl who also received a [gift] patted her.
Ye tilted his head: "I just like playing with Xiao Qin, what's wrong?"
"She...Ye, you didn't know her?" The girl looked at her companions and then at "Ye" with a puzzled expression.
"What?" Ye was also confused. "Xiao Qin is my best friend. You are not allowed to say bad things about her!"
"Oh, never mind. Actually, it's not about Xiao Qin, it's about something else."
The girl moved closer to her.
"I saw people carving words like 'school is bad', 'school deserves death' and 'I hate school' in their dormitories. These were the dormitories of those who had failed to pass the exam and dropped out."
The girl swallowed nervously. "I remember you lived in that dormitory before Xiao Qin came, right?"
"Ye" suddenly shuddered and broke out in sweat.
That was a secret I had kept hidden for three years, and it absolutely could not be discovered by anyone else...
I'm a player, and that thing... I absolutely have to hide it...!
"What are you talking about? I don't understand." "Ye" pulled "Xiao Qin" in the opposite direction of the girl and tried to run away.
The girl's magic was [Giant Strength], and she easily controlled Ye: "Ye, if you don't answer, no one can help you. Have you told Xiao Qin about these things?"
Ye was panting heavily, her vision blurry. She tried to tear the girl's hand away, "I don't understand. Don't ask anymore."
"Ye, why..."
"No, no, I didn't do anything... Please, don't ask..." "Ye" took advantage of the girl's distraction and hurriedly pulled "Xiao Qin" away.
......
"Hello, next one."
"Are you Ye?" A woman dressed as a [nurse] was standing at the door of the [Magic Test Room].
"Ye" replied with sweat on his forehead: "Yes."
"Okay, you can go in then." The woman made a mark on the notebook in her hand.
"Xiao Qin..." "Ye" looked at "Xiao Qin" who was being pulled by him.
"It's okay," "Xiao Qin" let go of her hand and sat on a bench nearby. "Go ahead. It shouldn't take long."
"Okay." "Ye" forced a smile at her and walked into the door.
......
"Xiao Qin recalled the girl who had just been frightened by his [magic], and the somewhat mysterious conversation between that girl and Ye."
"Could it be that Ye is really hiding something from me?"
"Please make your choice!"
"Choice 1: Trust Ye."
"Choice 2: Doubt Ye."
"Option 3: Question Ye. (Unlocked)"
「Choice 4:......(Unlocked)」
…
[You have made your choice!]

"Hello, Ye, welcome to the [Magic Testing Room]. Please place your right hand on the [Tester]." The robot gave instructions with gestures.
Following its words, Ye placed his right hand on it. Following a sharp pain, a line of words appeared on the screen: "Right hand completed."
"Please place your left hand on the [detector]." The robot spoke again.
Soon, the [tests] for both hands were completed.
"Please use your magic on the [Detector]." The robot stepped aside.
"Ye" held her breath and concentrated, and several sharp leaves flew out from the palm of her hand and pierced the [mud] in the center of the [detector]!
Immediately afterwards, dozens more were pierced, and hundreds of holes were instantly created on the [slime]!
"The test is complete. Please take back your magic."
The robot slid out quietly from the side.
"Xiao Qin", my savior, you must protect me——
"Ye" clasped his hands together and retracted his magic.
She closed her eyes and recited silently in her heart.
—You will make my wish come true, right?
"Ding-ling-ling—the test results have been tallied. Please check on the screen!"
"Ye" looked up with one eye open and one eye closed, and she clearly saw the test result belonging to her on the screen.
——[Name: Ye]
[Magic Type: Attack]
[Magic Name: Flying Leaf]
[Magic: 3921 (down 233 points from the previous year)]
[Comment: There is murderous intent, but it's not sharp enough.]
[Conclusion: Passed.]
"Ye" separated her hands and she began to sweat again.
