Chapter 443
After Ye Ya said lightly, the conversation immediately changed.
She stared straight into Xia Jing's eyes.
“…… Am I giving you trouble? ”
"Uh, no...... That one. ”
That innocent gaze made Xia Jing hesitate.
"Anyway, uh...... All right. You're a freshman, and you're coming to me as a friend—that's how you explain it to others. ”
Finally came up with a makeshift excuse.
After all, you can't honestly tell the truth to Li Mu and Wang Chuan.
"Hey, I'm not a freshman, am I?"
"Don't worry about it, just say that! At least in this classroom, you're a freshman. ”
As if frightened by Xia Jing's fierce appearance, Ye Ya nodded and agreed.
- Good.
Xia Jing rehearsed it over and over in his head. This guy is a freshman and came to me as a friend...... Well, I came to my junior high school senior, and that's it.
Well, seamlessly. Xia Jing, who was fully prepared, turned around.
"Ah~ that, that's ......"
Everyone in the classroom looked at it.
"Hmm...... Hey? ”
That gaze was inexplicably stinging.
「…… Belch...... That one...... Why do you have that kind of expression?"
Although Xia Jing was puzzled, everyone only remained silent.
In the middle of the night, Li Mu swaggered towards Xia Jing.
"Black-hearted glasses—oh no, Natsujing."
"You don't need to deliberately change your voice."
It seems to be sympathy, envy, hatred, and sarcasm. Li Mu had a complicated expression on his face, and put his hand on Xia Jing's shoulder with a "bump".
"I'm sorry, I'...... I really don't know what kind of expression to put on at such a time."
「…… What?"
What does that mean—
"Wait a minute, are you all ......?"
"I said, Xia Jing, Ye Ya."
An Ye, who came out of the crack in the human wall, called the names of the two as if he was dumbfounded.
「…… Everyone can hear the conversation between the two of you clearly."
Then he affirmed Xia Jing's heart without any delay.
"Huh?"
Xia Jing couldn't help but stretch out his finger and compare himself.
The unexpected situation made Xia Jing speechless for a while.
- Me?
After asking with a panicked gesture, Anno nodded.
That's right.
Xia Jing continued to point to Ye Ya without saying a word.
- And this guy's?
That's right.
Anno nodded again.
- All the conversations?
Compared with the summer scene, the mouth keeps opening and closing.
However, it seems that the purpose of communication has been achieved.
"I just told you I heard it all."
At this time—
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!"
The whole class roared with joy.
"Is she Xia Jing's girlfriend?"
"Really!?"
"I don't believe it! This girl is so beautiful!"
"Her hair is so beautiful! That's great! But why would such a girl be with Xia Jing?"
"I'm not a student of our school, but I went to great lengths to meet us...... Remarkable!"
"I feel like the eldest lady of a high-class family......
The classmates who knew Xia Jing talked about it. As for those who don't know each other so well, they are chattering with each other.
Xia Jing was stunned by the sudden situation, so he had to open his mouth wide and freeze in place.
"Eh, Anno, do you know this girl?"
"It can't be given to him by Anno Shao, right?"
"It's a fake. You. Before you become a matchmaker, you should care about yourself......
The girls also came up to surround Anno.
Ye Ya also ended up in the same situation. The people who surrounded her were men and women.
"What high school are you a student at?"
"How can there be that uniform?"
"What do you admire about the black-hearted spectacle boy that made you decide to date him?"
Due to the suddenness of the incident, Ye Ya couldn't react for a while, just looking stunned. Anno was also anxious and exhausted.
Xia Jing immediately understood that he had become a fish.
Because, he was also surrounded by friends, and began to make judgments based on his own conjectures.
"Hey, stinky boy! Where did you deceive that beautiful girl?"
"Hey, how did you first meet?"
"You've got a hand, black-hearted glasses. It turns out that the black-hearted glasses boy also has a hidden side."
"Hey, wait a minute......
Xia Jing couldn't bear to want to stop the male and female classmates, but he was suddenly hugged by his shoulder.
That person was Li Mu.
"Hey, Natsujing."
"What are you doing, why are you calling me by name?"
"You or Wang Chuan...... Why are you two bastards going behind my back with the girls, saying?"
The voice was inexplicably filled with a murderous aura.
"No, no, you're mistaken. Wang Chuan, that guy doesn't mention it, I'm—"
At the moment when Xia Jing was about to explain—
"Liar!"
On the other side, the group that surrounded Ye Ya and Anno heard the girl's screams.
"Dating on the premise of marriage? …… It's really fake!"
- Slow me down, what the hell did those two do?
Xia Jing, who was anxious, slowly turned his attention to the conversation next door.
The girls around Ye Ya slowly brought the topic to the direction of love.
"I, I, I've got a problem! I asked straight to the point, what stage are you going to with Xia Jingxing?"
…… And he asked deep enough.
"Which stage? What do you mean?"
Ye Ya's confused voice could be heard, and it seemed that she had not understood the hidden meaning of the words.
But those girls weren't ordinary people.
"Ah, to put it simply...... Did you kiss?"
The girl who asked the question simply changed to a straight question.
「Kiss……?」
Ye Ya first opened his eyes wide, as if he was pondering what it meant, and fixed his gaze firmly behind the ceiling......
"Do you mean kisses?"
As she asked, her whole face turned red and she looked embarrassed.
Ye Ya's reaction made the group of girls boil emotionally.
"Huh, that reaction...... Isn't there yet? It's so pure~"
"Oh my God, it's a super pure platonic love!"
"She must be conservative. Is it really the eldest lady of an upper-class family?"
"Where did Xia Jing meet such a pure girl......
Even Ye Ya couldn't stand the chatter of the female classmates, and broke the silence.
"You—you stop talking nonsense! The so-called kiss ......"
Although she began to speak incoherently and preachy—
"What matters is the hearts and minds of both parties...... No, I naturally like Xia Jing very much, and I think he is a very good object, but this is not the same thing as that......
It's just that the so-called more and more black refers to exactly that. The girls cheered enthusiastically.
Not good. If you don't help Ye Ya find the bottom of the stairs, even I will suffer together.
Xia Jing, who was so calculating, reflexively took a step towards them.
However, at this moment, Li Mu grabbed the grip of his shoulder, which increased to the point where he seemed to crush an apple.
"And then...... What part is the misunderstanding you haven't talked about yet?"
A terrifying deep voice frightened Xia Jing's eardrums.
"It hurts, and your face is terrifying! Hey, Wang Chuan! Save me......
Xia Jing turned his head to Wang Chuan on the side and asked for help.
"Is humanity really going to show its true colors in a pinch...... Why don't you mention a guy like me?"
My friend just smiled heartily.
"That's just a tactful embellishment......
"Alright, let me hear what you have to say, damn black-hearted glasses? Oh, maybe the nickname of the black-hearted glasses boy is no longer suitable for you, you happy glasses boy."
"What an inexplicable nickname! Sounds like a Doraemon prop!"
"You don't have to worry. My mood has jumped out of the superficial level of jealousy. This...... This affection ...... It's something much more terrifying."
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"Then again, it's really inexplicable. I don't know what that girl is obsessed with about you? Glasses? Or glasses? Ah, could it be glasses?"
"That's enough, Wang Chuan, is my advantage only the object of glasses?"
"Frankly, I can't really think of any other advantages."
If I were to say that, I can't think of a reason why the all-nighter would be so desperate for you! Xia Jing originally planned to choke back like this, but he was worried that the current atmosphere didn't seem to allow him to speak quickly, so he gave up.
It's miserable. It's really miserable.
If you don't want to find a way to get through this difficult time, your position in the class will be limited in the future, and the situation will be extremely discordant. Even when I fought Nangong, I didn't feel as desperate as I am now.
Although Xia Jing expected that he would have a flash of inspiration and come up with some excuses, under the influence of anxiety and the atmosphere around him, he was also surprised that he had no inspiration at all. I even thought about impulsively announcing, "Yes, this guy and I may get married in the future, do you have any problems?" "This kind of thought.
However, an unanticipated object reached out at this time.
The loudspeakers interrupted the hustle and bustle of the classroom by playing cue music on the campus radio. Naturally, no one took the voice to heart at first, but the name that the teacher called out next made everyone present prick up their ears.
"Xia Jing of Class C of the second year, Yasuno of Class D of the second year, and Lan Yi of Class A of the third year."
"Huh?"
"The councillor has something to see you. When you hear the announcement, please go to the reception room immediately. Repeat once. Year 2 Class C Summer ......
"The board of directors has something to do with us? Hey, Anno ......"
Xia Jing put aside the stunned classmates and came to Anye, only to see that she also looked surprised. Ye Ya on the side nodded as if he had been mentally prepared.
As if she had finally escaped, she looked relieved and said, "That's what I'm here for. Xia Jing, Anye, where is the reception room? Lead the way."
Among the deer clan, there are divided families.
Even if a clan hides their demonic identity and lives in human society, in order to survive, they can't completely cut off contact with humans.
It is holy to create such a division of the family that intersects with human society and shoulders the responsibility of assisting the survival of the race.
Private high schools are the usual schools for girls from a group of girls. All members of a clan can unconditionally enter the school as ordinary people to become students, and if the clan causes any turmoil in the school, they will also fabricate the name of the real incident on the table, and then solve it secretly. The reason why he can call for wind and rain like this is also because the head of the "saint" has invested a huge amount of money and became a director.
The name of the current head is Sand. When the Prosperity faction rebelled, she happened to accompany her husband on a business trip abroad, and it was in a desolate place, where she had to stay until spring, when she finally had a way to return.
This time she named Xia Jing and others to meet.
"Since the man named Sand is back, why don't you say anything?"
On the way to the reception room, Xia Jing complained to Ye Ya.
"I haven't heard of it either."
Anno echoed, and Yaya replied, "I only received the news of her return to China today yesterday."
"I see...... That's not right. Even then, you don't need to run to the classroom, do you?"
To be sure, she shouldn't have infiltrated human society at all.
Although it was logical to escape from that battlefield in the name of finding someone for the council, the question remained unresolved. Thinking that there would be a mess to be cleaned up later, Xia Jing wanted to just die.
"I didn't expect it to be such a big mess."
Ye Ya will rarely be depressed.
It seems that she was bombarded with merciless questions from strangers before, which made her suffer.
"I'm sorry. I just want to see what you looked like when you were in school."
"Ugh...... I ......."
Ye Ya's straightforwardness extinguished Xia Jing's obsession to investigate to the end.
This guy usually shackles in the house of the lost and doesn't come out. Although she was accompanied by Anai and Lin Yu, the days when she didn't have the opportunity to talk to her peers might make her feel very lonely—or maybe she was actually very envious of Xia Jing and the others?
Ye Ya smiled faintly.
"It's been a long time since I've come to class in this suit...... I really miss it. It's a shame to say that, but I think it's the right one."
Ye Ya looked down at the sleeve of the sailor suit and said.
"You're ......"
Xia Jing finally found out at this time.
Ya's uniform is not new.
It was the uniform of Fang Yuan, who was no longer alive - it turned out that Ye Ya's purpose was to take her to visit the school again.
"It's incredible, obviously I went to school from this school in the future......
Ye Ya inherited Fang Yuan's memories and some of her feelings.
So, is Fang Yuan in Ye Ya's heart missing the school?
"Really?" Xia Jing only replied simply.
That being the case, there is nothing to say.
Fang Yuan's nostalgia for the school, and Ye Ya's thoughtful behavior towards Fang Yuan. There is no need to compare these two with the commotion, the former is obviously too important.
"Haven't you arrived at the reception room yet?"
"Ahhh......h Anyway, I haven't even been there."
"I've been there a few times, and that's pretty much the same as this one."
The reason why Anno's voice is more high-pitched and cheerful than usual may be to dilute this inexplicably sentimental atmosphere.
The group rounded the corner of the corridor and arrived at the reception room. After knocking on the door a few times—
"Come in." A woman's response came from within.
"Ugh...... Excuse me."
Xia Jing turned around the doorknob-style door that seemed a little abrupt in a place like the school. The rooms in the reception room are carpeted and a long wooden table is sandwiched between two sofas. Only the information cabinets in the interior of the room exude the atmosphere of an office.
Lan Yang, who had reported earlier, sat on the sofa.
On the other end, two adults were seen standing by the window.
"Mrs. Sand, Master Xuan."
Ya called the names of the two figures.
The two adults—a man and a woman.
The first impression that came to Xia Jing's mind was black.
The man had a short haircut, thin-framed sunglasses, and was dressed in a suit, so he didn't look like a decent person. I have the impression that I heard that his profession is a botanist or something, but is it because I remember it wrong?
As for the woman, she wore a pitch-black hanfu and coiled her hair up. Although she is a beauty, her eyes have a sharp chill, which is straightforwardly described as terrifying.
