Chapter Forty-One: Back to the Academy

  The silver-haired Rou Blues suddenly reached out and grabbed my wig, pulling it lightly, and the long hair fell directly onto my back, while the wig was pinched in the hand of a certain young man.

  His expression was very calm, as if he hadn't been surprised at all by my gender. I think if it were Xing Yu instead of him, his brain would have exploded in shock, or he would have grabbed my collar and asked: "Tell me, where did you hide Xiao Cha?! Hand him over!!"

  Looking at me hastily putting on the wig, the quiet boy spoke faintly: "No need to hide, I who live in a dark world have seen through such disguises... If I couldn't see through even this small disguise, I would have died long ago."

  What?! So he's known I'm a girl since morning?! Failure, failure, huge failure! I thought I was hiding it well t＿t! Sigh, looks like my disguise can only fool those idiot younger brothers and Qi He Lan that kind of moron.

  Although it's a bit depressing, the fact is already a fact. Even if he finds out, I don't think this kid will reveal my identity, right? Hmm... even if he wants to say something =＿=, that's up to him. However, I dare guarantee that at that time, I will definitely do something extremely special to his cat.

  As I comforted myself, I followed the white cat and started running towards the academy. Along the way, the colorful neon lights flew past me like a rainbow in reverse, and only then did I realize that it was already quite late, and the sky had darkened... Of course, it wasn't completely dark yet.

  As I passed through the tightly closed door that only the principal could enter (we climbed over the wall to get in), I suddenly had a very ominous feeling... it seemed like I had missed something, and yet I couldn't think of what it was... there were some vague shadows in my mind but no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't recall them.

  What the heck is going on…… Before this, I saved the prince of Michero Lan country and he sent his guards to protect me. Then I was dragged away by Mingyue to be a cowherd and do business. And then I met Yin Lolan Xius...... Ah, what about those guards? Oh...... I think I had them escort a young boy who was almost bullied to the school hospital. He was being bullied by a group of outsiders from who-knows-where...... So, who's going to tell me where those guards went?! They would have sent the person away and even if they couldn't find me, they would use the royal family's connections to find me! But it's been this long and they still haven't found me! And I still haven't told the student council about that young boy who was almost bullied or the outsiders! Dammit, it's all because of Mingyue that idiot, making me forget such important things!!!

  A cat followed by a somersault jumped over the wall into our great college, and the infrared gap just passed close to my waist. If it had been a little lower, the alarm would have burst out instantly. This damn cat really knows how to pick a place to walk, if I wasn't used to jumping higher than the wall by a few centimeters, I'm afraid I would have been shone on by the campus security guard with a flashlight by now!

  "Shut up, you annoying cat. I've arrived, thanks for showing me the way. Don't bother seeing me off, I'm leaving." With that, he ignored whether the cat understood or not and took off on his own.

  The first destination was the school hospital, although it's already late at night, the emergency room of the school hospital should be open, right? I'll go ask about those guards and the boy. Even if I couldn't remember the boy, I should be able to recall those guards with such distinctive attire... after all, they were two big men! Wait a minute?! Two, that's right, there were only two of them! When I helped the boy earlier, only two people came out from the group of guards. And then I followed Mingyue to the art building, and they should have been waiting downstairs. But... but when I jumped down, I didn't even see a single shadow, let alone any bodies for me to savor the taste of revenge! Those guards really did evaporate into thin air?!

  When I arrived at the school hospital's emergency department, I saw a relatively young teacher sitting inside keeping watch overnight, flipping through an acupuncture point manual with a serious expression. Usually, it should be one teacher and one medical staff member taking turns keeping watch overnight, where did that doctor go? Hmm, maybe he went to the bathroom, who knows.

  After I figured it out, I knocked on the door. Although I didn't want to disturb him, I had no choice but to disturb him: "Excuse me... can I come in?"

  The teacher was taken aback for a moment, then looked clearly at the student and said enthusiastically: "Is there anything I can help you with?"

  "Oh, it's like this, I have a friend who was sent to the infirmary this afternoon, uh...I don't know how he's doing so I came to take a look. Excuse me, is he still here?" I replied cautiously.

  The teacher smiled slightly and took over the roster next to him: "What's your friend's name, I'll help you check if he's in this ward"

  。”

  Name... uh? What's it called?

  I was stunned there, what's that boy's name again? Depressed... I seem to have no idea what his name is!

  "Uh, that... my friend is actually someone I just met today, didn't even have time to ask his name yet... uh, because we hit it off pretty well, so... yeah, this... he was brought by two foreign bodyguards, do you remember, teacher? Were you there this afternoon?"

  "Afternoon I've been here, if someone passed by, I should be able to see (because the emergency room is closest to the door), but I didn't see the friend you described, nor did I see any foreign guards." The teacher still smiled, only putting the name list back on the table.

  "Oh, maybe I remembered it wrong," I replied lightly and turned to leave. Before opening the door to go out, I suddenly turned back and asked: "Teacher, what time do you change shifts?"

  The teacher was taken aback for a moment, then replied: "Around 10 o'clock."

  "Then you've been working in the infirmary all along, teacher?" I remained expressionless.

  The teacher obviously didn't expect me to ask these questions, lowered his head and was stunned for a few seconds, I don't know if he was thinking or something else, then raised his head and smiled: "Hehe, yes, before I was in charge of the White Class, recently changed to the Front Night."

  Oh, around 10 o'clock? I furrowed my brow unconsciously for a moment... As for the night shift time of the school hospital, I really didn't know, but what the old man who helped me treat my wound said, I remembered very clearly. Although the college regulations may indeed be at 10 o'clock to change shifts, many teachers couldn't adjust their sleep schedule, so they privately advanced their working hours, that is, they would come one hour early to guard the night and go home one hour early! Because of this adjustment, it was in line with the appetite of those teachers and doctors. Almost every teacher assumed that the shift change time was at 9 o'clock, even new teachers thought so at first, thinking that the schedule was printed incorrectly.

  But just now that teacher... said very naturally that it was at 10 o'clock, could it be that the leadership above is strictly enforcing the rules again and has re-adjusted the system? Feeling depressed.
