The Silent and Eerie School (Seventeen)
Li Su had no time to care who the other teachers were; he had a premonition that the person in front of him was the key to entering the school history museum, and that no other NPC would be easier to fool than him.
Moreover, his task was to go to the school history museum that night.
Li Su looked at Qi Wujin and nodded seriously: "I'll go."
The system's voice sounded again the instant Li Su agreed.
[Congratulations to player Li Su for triggering the key quest: Try your best to get the key to the school history museum from the NPC. Good luck.]
Quest Hint: Be careful not to get spotted by the NPCs, or you'll face terrible consequences!
“But students aren’t allowed to enter the school history museum.” Qi Wujin’s face showed a troubled expression.
As expected, this task was not so easy.
Li Su calmed down and thought things through.
The NPC in front of him seemed to really like that temptation just now, so could he try again?
Thinking this, Li Su's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she quietly closed the distance between herself and Qi Wujin.
The pleasant fragrance wafted into his arms again, and Qi Wujin's blood began to feel abnormally hot.
Li Su wrapped her arms around the waist of the person in front of her and said softly, "Then, teacher, please let me in just this once? Okay?"
The handsome young man was clearly doing this for the first time. Even though he hadn't done anything yet, his fair face was already flushed, and he was looking up at him.
Her watery eyes were slightly evasive with shyness, and her thick eyelashes trembled gently. It was clearly an awkward and clumsy seduction, yet it made Qi Wujin feel a surge of heat.
His child has a really strong learning ability; he's so smart that he can apply what he's learned so quickly.
Li Su was almost crying with shame inside. Would this really work?
Li Su started calling the system: Where is the key to the school history museum?
Sorry, this is sensitive information and cannot be disclosed. Players are advised to find it themselves.
Li Su's gaze shifted downwards, landing on the pocket of the NPC's trousers in front of her.
Will he find what he wants here?
Qi Wujin was still lost in the allure of his darling's appearance when he suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his lower back.
Her soft, boneless little hand quietly moved down from his waist.
He should have spoken up to stop her, but he wanted to experience Su Su's initiative a little more.
Qi Wujin silently indulged the mischievous brat, letting those slender fingertips reach his trouser pocket.
The pocket was slightly bulging, so there should be something inside, but I wondered if it might be the key to the school history museum.
Li Su looked at the trousers that were too tight against her skin and began to worry.
If he were to steal directly, the NPC in front of him would definitely notice.
Only by getting the NPC to take off his pants will he have a chance to steal what's in his pocket.
Li Su's eyes brightened slightly, and when she looked up at Qi Wujin again, her expression had become very distressed.
The boy in his arms had a furrowed brow, his gaze weak as he looked at him, and even his voice was much weaker: "Teacher, I feel a little unwell..."
Wasn't everything fine just now? Although he knew this might be a trick by Li Su to deceive him, Qi Wujin still willingly took the bait.
He couldn't tolerate even the slightest possibility of something going wrong with his baby.
Qi Wujin quickly supported Li Su's shoulder, a hint of panic inevitably appearing in his eyes: "Where do you feel unwell?"
"My heart hurts so much..." Li Su said, her whole body began to slump downwards.
Qi Wujin bent down and hugged him tightly, striding forward, his tone becoming disordered: "Does it hurt a lot? Don't be afraid, I have medicine, Su Su will be fine."
Completely unexpectedly, Qi Wujin picked him up in a princess carry. Li Su was stunned for a moment, but quickly cooperated by wrapping his arms around Qi Wujin's neck and burying his head in his neck.
Qi Wujin lowered his eyes; the boy's face was mostly hidden by his hair, making it impossible for Qi Wujin to discern his expression.
Is there anything else about Su Su's body that he hasn't discovered? He had already checked her thoroughly beforehand; there shouldn't be any unexpected problems.
Even though he was confident in his abilities, Qi Wujin still panicked when he recalled the scene of the little girl lying in a pool of blood with a pale face in his arms.
I started to think about whether I had really overlooked anything.
"Susu, are you still conscious? Are you still feeling unwell?"
A worried and urgent voice came from above her head. Li Su felt a deep sense of guilt for deceiving others, but she still held back and didn't say anything. Since she had already lied, she had to keep up the act.
Receiving no response, Qi Wujin quickened his pace, but worried that the jolting from running would make the person in his arms even more uncomfortable, so he simply walked quickly.
The system in my brain paused twice, then spoke in a mechanical voice: [Where do you feel unwell?]
Li Su blinked. Would the system even care about the player's physical condition? Why did he feel like the system was speaking much faster than usual?
Li Su denied it: I wasn't feeling unwell. I lied to him. I wanted him to take me to drink medicine so I could take the opportunity to spill water on his pants.
The system paused for a moment: 【...Oh.】
Li Su noticed with alarm that the NPC carrying him had slowed down, and was not as fast as before.
Li Su tensed up instantly.
Did he give himself away? But he didn't answer the NPC's questions either, so why is the NPC getting slower and slower? Did he realize he was faking illness?
Li Su swallowed, nuzzled her head against Qi Wujin's neck, and whispered, "It hurts..."
Qi Wujin's eyes, hidden behind his glasses, were deep and dark, but when he heard Li Su's feignedly weak murmur, a slightly indulgent smile appeared on his face.
Little liar.
The system is so honest with you, yet you lie to it.
I'm so naughty to make him worry so much.
Thinking this to himself, Qi Wujin didn't show any sign of distress on his face. His voice was still dry and tense: "Don't be afraid, your teacher will take you to get treatment."
Li Su's tense heart calmed down when she heard those words.
Phew, it seems he didn't realize he was faking his discomfort.
However, the confusion in Li Su's heart did not dissipate for a long time.
Since the NPC didn't realize he was lying, why isn't he walking as fast as before? Instead, he's walking so slowly, like he's taking a stroll.
But Li Su, who was pretending to be in pain, couldn't actually ask him why, so she could only keep all her curiosity to herself.
"Hahaha, what else could it be? Of course, it's to hold the baby a little longer!"
"Baby's acting is really amazing! For a moment when you almost slipped, I thought you were really hurt. Thank goodness you weren't..."
"Are the system and this NPC male teacher connected? Or can this NPC male teacher control the system at certain times? Otherwise, is it really such a coincidence that the male teacher slowed down the moment the system asked Su Su if she was feeling unwell?"
"I also find it strange; the guess from upstairs makes sense."
"I support the second guess."
"Oh my god, so who exactly is this NPC? I'm so curious!"
"Beep beep beep..."
The combination lock clicked.
Li Su quietly tilted his head and found himself being carried to a large gate by this NPC. The male NPC teacher was holding him with one arm and entering a password with the other.
The password is 1006.
Li Su guessed that this might be the birthday of the NPC male teacher.
Qi Wujin pressed the switch on the wall, and the room instantly lit up.
Li Su quietly surveyed the new space in front of her.
The clean and simple living room, with only minimalist black, white and gray colors, looks like this male teacher's home.
As Qi Wujin carried the person in his arms into the room, he said, "It's too late now, the school clinic is already closed. Let me take you to my place first."
Li Su was placed on a soft, off-white sofa.
Li Su quickly closed her eyes, pretending to be in great pain.
"Su Su, are you alright?" Qi Wujin asked cooperatively, looking at the boy who was still pretending to be sick.
But the doting look in his eyes was impossible to hide.
"Hmm..." Li Su pretended to have just woken up and slowly opened her eyes. "Water... I want to drink water..."
Little liar, you stopped pretending as soon as you came in.
Qi Wujin raised an eyebrow slightly. "Alright, you can rest here for a bit. I'll go get you some water."
"Um......"
Soon, Qi Wujin walked over to him with a glass of warm water. "Here, have some warm water."
Qi Wujin handed the glass of water to Li Su, while he himself stood an arm's length away from Li Su.
Li Su never expected Qi Wujin to be so far away from him, and secretly estimated the distance between the two of them.
It's too far. Even if he pretends to slip, the little water in the cup will only wet the NPC male teacher's sleeve at most, and it's impossible for it to wet his pants.
Li Su was in a dilemma; as expected, the imagination was beautiful, but the reality was cruel.
Seeing the boy on the sofa looking troubled and not taking the cup from his hand, Qi Wujin's lips curled up almost imperceptibly as he suppressed a laugh and asked, "Hmm? What's wrong?"
When the plan failed, Li Su's mind raced as she quickly devised a remedy.
Then, Qi Wujin saw the boy on the sofa slump further down, looking completely listless.
"Teacher... I feel weak, could you feed me...?"
If Qi Wujin hadn't already known that Li Su wasn't actually in pain, he probably would have been completely fooled by the boy.
Even now, though he already knew that Li Su was lying to him, trying to trick him into getting closer so she could deliberately splash water on him, he still couldn't help but agree.
"Okay." Qi Wujin's voice was slightly hoarse.
He strode over to Li Su and placed the cup on the low table next to the sofa.
Li Su blinked. Weren't you going to feed me water? Why did you put the cup down?
Before Li Su could react, her slender waist had already fallen into the man's arms, and she was suspended in the air for a moment before falling into Qi Wujin's embrace.
Li Su's lips parted slightly as she belatedly realized that she was sitting on Qi Wujin's lap.
