Chapter 12: The Witch in Pajamas

After class on Thursday afternoon, Zheng Qing did not go to the library.

He went to a coffee house on the pedestrian street, ordered a cup of black coffee, and watched with relish, with walnut crisp, alabang, and chocolate chips on the snack plate, as the two sturdy sugar men wrestled on the plate.

The Sugar Man was bought by him in the Sugar Man shop diagonally across from the bubble tea shop before he came to the coffee shop.

At the beginning of the school year, he had seen a wonderful but brief duel between two cavalry units in the window of that candy man shop, which left a deep impression on him.

It just so happened that he was free today, so he went to the store and bought two candy man wrestlers.

It's still a sucrose, a maltose.

As a new guest for the first time, the owner of the candy man shop gave a fructose dragonfly as a referee for the wrestlers.

"Two wins in three games! If you lose, you will be eaten!" The dragonfly elf waved his cane and flew back and forth in the air at a height of three inches, shouting: "Be chewed and crushed by your audience, swallowed into your stomach!"

Zheng Qing listened to the referee's warning with a black line on his face, and was very worried that this kind of intimidation would affect the performance of the two wrestlers.

As it turned out, he was overthinking.

Maybe it's because of the high work ethic of these 'professional wrestlers', or maybe it's just that their intelligence is too simple to understand the overly complex grammar of the judges.

The two players on the plate were not affected by the words of the dragonfly referee, and still hugged their heads, wrapped their legs, hooked their feet, and picked peaches one by one, and the sugar crumbs splashed everywhere, and the porcelain plate jingled.

Zheng Qing watched it with relish, and from time to time he scraped up the sugar crumbs on the plate with a small spoon, stuffed it into his mouth and sucked it.

He had two Dharma books stacked in his hand.

One was white, his own law book, and the other was an old law book that he had received from Professor Yao's box in Charms class on Monday.

In both books, a complete bondage spell has been copied in each of them - this is the homework of Lao Yao's Charms class, and it is also the reason why Zheng Qing is staying in the coffee shop now.

At the professor's request, he also needed a copy of another student, a priority girl, and at the same time transcribed and used the bondage spell, writing a report describing the different feelings of using different spells and recording the nuances of the spell.

Originally, he wanted to invite Yelena to complete the assignment.

However, after the last Charms lesson, the Gypsy Witch's whereabouts became a little unpredictable again, often ringing the bell and leaving early in the middle of the class.

For some reason, the professors did not express their dissatisfaction with Yelena's behavior.

Helplessly, Zheng Qing tried to send an invitation to Jiang Yu.

Fortunately, the head of the class Jiang happily agreed to his request, but there was one condition - he needed to find a suitable collaborator for Li Meng.

It's too easy.

Whether it is Xin Fatzi or Zhang Jixin, they are all eager for this place.

......

......

"If you're not going to eat them, they can fall in front of you all night. A nice voice sounded in his ears, interrupting Zheng Qing's relishing of the game.

He raised his head, Jiang Yu had come to the store at some point, carrying a handbag, bending over, his head very close, watching the candy man wrestling on the table.

Really close.

When Zheng Qing turned around, he almost touched her cheek.

He could even see the tiny fuzz on her face, smell the refreshing fragrance, and feel the itch of her fluttering hair as it touched her face.

"Huh?" The young public student's face turned red visibly, and he stammered and asked, "What...... What? What a night......"

Jiang Yu also seemed to notice that something was wrong with him, his long eyelashes trembled, his nose fluttered rapidly, he suddenly stood up straight, and stammered in reply, "I...... I mean, you're going to ...... Are you going to watch Sugar Man wrestling all night?"

Zheng Qing's brain reaction speed finally kept up with the development of events.

He shook his head vigorously, as if he could shake off the charm in his heart and shake off the heat on his face.

"Just a little curious," he honestly admitted, "you know I've never seen anything interesting like this before...... Just watched it for a little while before you came. ”

Jiang Yu also seemed to get rid of the panic he had been a few seconds ago, and returned to his usual grace.

"Then let's hurry. She stroked her long hair from her ears, pulled a few large heavy books from her handbag, placed them on the table, and then raised her right hand and cocked her index finger.

A waiter elf dressed in a maid's costume flapped her wings and landed gracefully on her fingertips in a dignified greeting salute.

"A glass of black roses, less ice. Jiang Yu tilted his head, slightly, held a golden bean in his left hand, and stuffed it into the pocket behind the skirt of the waiter: "Snack at will, don't be too sweet." ”

"Merlin bless you, Miss. The elf flapped its wings happily and thanked him softly.

Zheng Qing smacked his lips and couldn't help but sigh as he watched the shiny golden bean fall into the elf's pocket.

Then his gaze fell on Jiang Yu's clothes, and his eyebrows couldn't help but rise higher and higher.

She wore a shorts shirt and a red and black checkered cotton gown.

The snow-white long legs and beautiful posture loom under the wide long coat, and people can't help but look at it twice.

"Are you wearing pajamas?" Zheng Qing looked at the dress of the senior head Jiang with a tangled face, and asked in a very affirmative tone: "Are you wearing a pajama outside?"

"yes. Jiang Yu curled her hair casually, revealing a white neck.

"That's too ...... Feel free to do so. The young scholarship student racked his brains to come up with an appropriate word.

"You know what, it's the trending outfit this year...... And it's very comfortable to wear. The corners of Jiang Yu's mouth curled slightly, took out his law book, handed it to Zheng Qing, and urged: "Hurry up and start." ”

"It always looks like you've just gotten out of bed. Zheng Qing muttered quietly.

"What?" Jiang Yu sat across from him, pulling out his notebook, rune paper, and other test supplies, not hearing what the wizard said.

"Ahem, I mean, don't you have classes in the afternoon?" Zheng Qing coughed dryly and immediately changed his question: "I remember that I should wear a robe during class." ”

"My elective course in the afternoon is Classical Philosophy of Magic, and the teacher is on leave today, so the afternoon class is cancelled. Jiang Yu puffed out his mouth and looked not very satisfied: "Actually, I stayed in the library this afternoon. ”

"What are you doing in the library, do you want to do your homework?"

"Check the file. Jiang Yu's expression suddenly darkened: "You know, that kitten...... The Book Hill Pavilion has the most detailed case retrieval and storage room in the wizarding world, and I may be able to find some traces of the murderer in it. ”

"You're still investigating?" Zheng Qing couldn't help but be surprised: "I thought this matter was closed...... Isn't the school committee already announcing the results of the investigation...... Is it because of the resurgence of silence?"

"I don't believe it!" Jiang Yu raised his head, his eyes full of stubbornness.

Zheng Qing opened his mouth and did not continue to dissuade.

He didn't give up dissuasion because he saw Jiang Yu's insistence.

Instead, he suddenly remembered the dream of the 'witness' in Lao Yao's office last night, the chill he had felt to the bone, and the white figure.

So he suddenly didn't have so much confidence in the school committee's closing report.

"If there's anything you need help with, just ask. He finally nodded, expressing his support for the witch's insistence, "I trust you more than those gray robes. ”

Jiang Yu pursed his lips, his eyelids drooped, and he whispered.
