A little girl at a magic school, she's a goofy troublemaker who can do anything.

The interrogation room had no windows and was brightly lit, but Li Wenyin's first feeling upon entering was one of suffocation and oppression.

That's the downside of the invisibility cloak; others can't touch her, but if she wants to do something, she can touch other people or things, so she can only come in with Zhou Mixuan.

Under Li Wenyin's watchful eye, Zhou Mixuan entered with a new set of torture instruments and magic tools, and examined the knife-like and scissor-like objects in her hands with great interest.

The knife in Zhou Mixuan's hand was sharp and gleaming. Rui Yuan's glasses were askew. He was chained in mid-air with his wrists hanging up. He looked at Zhou Mixuan with disdain, yet he still appeared fearless, as if he had lost his basic emotional capacity.

"...That huge iron chain looks like it's used to tether wild animals." Li Wenyin huddled in the corner, speaking in an extremely low voice, like a mosquito buzzing.

Muyou: "Normally, it is indeed used to tether wild animals."

Zhou Mixuan roughly figured it out, gripped the torture instrument, infused it with magic, and gently swung it...

Ruiyuan's arm was dislocated.

Li Wenyin: "!!!"

Her pupils contracted, and she instinctively looked away. Mu quickly reached out and covered her mouth, silencing the scream that almost escaped her lips.

"Don't be afraid, it's not really cut off."

Li Wenyin calmed down slightly: "What is that?"

"That magical artifact... it uses a kind of spatial severing magic, which can temporarily separate objects that were originally one to see inside," Mu said softly. "It is said to be a torture device, but it is actually a medical device. In reality, his arm was not broken, it just looked scary."

But this looks terrifying.

Li Wenyin controlled herself from looking at the severed part of Ruiyuan's arm.

Clearly, Ruiyuan was unaware of the true purpose of this magical artifact. He stared in astonishment as his arm was severed, staring at Zhou Mixuan in disbelief: "The student council... is this so lawless? They just cut off my arm?"

"Anyone who gets sent to this torture chamber has lost some of their human rights. You should have given a proper answer when that icy-faced guy came in and questioned you. He's much easier to talk to than I am."

Zhou Mixuan smiled, waved his magic wand, and directed the "removed" arm to float in front of him, carefully examining the broken end.

Ice-cold face... Is that referring to Nangong Zhi? Li Wenyin thought about it and realized it was true. Compared to Zhou Mixuan, Senior Nangong seemed much more gentle and refined.

Zhou Mixuan can be unpredictable and both gentle and strong all by herself, how can anyone not be afraid?

I'm starting to miss those chubby, buttery little cookies.

-

People can lie, but the body cannot.

"Two-thirds of the blood is from magical beasts," Zhou Mixuan analyzed using a detection spell. "No rejection reaction yet?"

Upon hearing this, Li Wenyin pondered.

When I was learning weaving magic before, my senior, Yu Zhiyuan, knew a healing weaving magic that used blood to weave blood. She emphasized that only blood from the same race could achieve the desired effect. Different blood could easily cause rejection reactions, and might even cause the body to explode and die.

This shows that blood exchange and blood fusion are not high-level or deep magic, and can be replaced by other simple magic.

Just like you can't buy poison if you specifically want to, but you can get rat poison that's readily available in everyday life and it has a similar effect.

Ruiyuan remained silent, simply staring intently at Zhou Mixuan.

"Hmm?" Zhou Mixuan seemed to have discovered something new and interesting. "Your bone age doesn't seem to be only sixteen years old."

Upon hearing this, Mu frowned slightly.

Li Wenyin was stunned. Was her age also a lie?

How could this be kept secret? Even if ordinary students didn't notice, what about the teachers, professors, and all the mysterious deans?

Oh right... Li Wenyin remembered that this school has always been student-run. Even if the professors and teachers knew something, they never interfered. The student council was the bridge between teachers and students.

Li Wenyin now roughly understands why the biggest villains in novels are the student council. In this case, if several members of the student council turn evil, then it is indeed a dark and hopeless situation.

In fact... it's possible that the professors knew all along that the flag-raising ceremony, which seemed to be about selecting people for the college flag but was actually about selecting people for the professors, was just about choosing Ruiyuan to go on stage to present.

-

Ruiyuan remained silent, neither offering any explanation nor any attempt to defend himself.

Zhou Mixuan had almost finished collecting blood samples. Looking at the results analyzed by magic, she asked with great interest, "...the fusion of nine, ten...seventeen kinds of magical beast blood, and all of this blood comes from magical beasts registered in our school's magical beast forest."

"I don't recall you having a Warcraft Forest entry permit, do you?" Zhou Mixuan asked. "How did you get in?"

Ruiyuan looked at him with an almost lifeless gaze.

Zhou Mixuan: "Or rather, the most important question is, is the theft of King Ehuyu's corpse related to you?"

Li Wenyin: "!"

So that's how it is! No wonder the student council was so uninterested in managing other matters the other day, with all the talk of student council chaos and neglect of various issues, all to keep the most important information completely under wraps.

The giant bird, the mutated magical beast, the corpse of the King of the Beaks, has been stolen!

Ultimately, everything came back to the Monster Forest.

If the Demon Beast Forest is involved, then Ruiyuan's actions go beyond simply disguising himself as an animal, playing tricks, and acting strangely; they involve the most serious matter of demon beasts mutating and attacking students.

As Li Wenyin thought of that mysterious secret entrance, she became increasingly convinced that Ruiyuan was the instigator.

From this perspective, Vice President Zhou, who interrogated Ruiyuan, appears to be a good person who cares about the people.

But now, Zhou Mixuan, acting like a complete villain, asked with a smile, "Aren't you going to say anything?"

After saying that, he stepped forward and kicked the chair, then reached out and grabbed Ruiyuan's chin with a clamp.

"Even a mute has to speak up for me."

He grabbed the man's neck and poured something down his throat quickly, forcing Ruiyuan to choke and cough several times, his body hunched over weakly.

Li Wenyin: "..."

If she hadn't known some inside information, seeing this situation, she wouldn't know who the good guy was.

Mu You, probably afraid that she might misunderstand, explained in a low voice, "That's a truth serum, not some other kind of medicine."

Li Wenyin nodded sadly.

She understands.

-

"Let's go through them one by one. First of all, where is the body of King Ehuyu?" Zhou Mixuan shook his hand and walked back.

After a long silence, Ruiyuan, under the influence of the potion, had no choice but to speak: "I... took it..."

"You eat...?" Even Zhou Mixuan was briefly taken aback by this answer. "Why?"

Ruiyuan looked calmly at the ground: "I want to completely transform myself into an animal. I have an uncontrollable craving for raw meat."

So he took advantage of the chaos to steal the corpse of King Ehuyu, killing two birds with one stone.

Zhou Mixuan then asked, "The method is to frequently collect the blood of monsters from the Monster Forest? Won't mixing different blood types cause the body to explode and die?"

"Yes. As long as I really want to do it, there's nothing I can't overcome. There are plenty of people who don't want me to die, so I won't die," Ruiyuan said.

"Your family?" Zhou Mixuan said sarcastically, "They must have it tough having such an unlucky son like you."

Ruiyuan asked calmly, "Is that so?"

Zhou Mixuan: "How did you get into the Monster Forest?"

"...A few years ago, I discovered a secret entrance, and I've always entered through that." Ruiyuan lowered his eyes.

Zhou Mixuan understood: "You really aren't the sixteen-year-old Ruiyuan."

Ruiyuan remained silent.

"Who exactly are you?" Zhou Mixuan asked sharply.

Ruiyuan quietly looked back. Under the influence of the truth serum, he couldn't lie or hide anything, but he could say something else before telling the truth.

"Vice President Zhou, I'm practically an animal now, and my sense of smell is much more sensitive than a human's."

"Didn't you notice that there are more than just the two of us in this torture chamber?"

Li Wenyin: "!!!"

Holy crap, this bastard stabbed her in the back even when she was about to die!

She held the child tightly in her arms, not daring to move, holding her breath and watching their movements closely.

Oh no, this is really going to be the case. Curiosity really killed the cat. Oh no, we still don't know if it was Ruiyuan who harmed the big bird and the senior!

"Really? Then I'll have to..."

Zhou Mixuan looked around, her empty yet cold and sharp gaze slowly moving towards Li Wenyin.

"Take a good look."

As soon as Zhou Mixuan finished speaking, Li Wenyin felt a sudden turbulence around her, engulfing her.

Suddenly, everything went black in Li Wenyin's vision. She felt as if her body had been pulled away to another part of her body, and the world spun around her. It felt exactly the same as when she was forcibly dragged to the flag-raising platform.

This is teleportation magic!

After feeling dizzy for a moment, she shook her head, trying to see where she was and where Zhou Mixuan had put her.

Then Li Wenyin found herself in a strange room, not only by herself, but also by the things in the torture room, such as tables and chairs, all next to her.

But Li Wenyin's magic wand, invisibility cloak, and even her school uniform jacket are all gone!

Li Wenyin understood. This was a designated teleportation, a group teleportation after the magic artifacts were removed. The magic wand and school uniform were essentially a type of magic artifact, so naturally they didn't come along.

Zhou Mixuan didn't know if there was anyone else in the torture chamber, but he could conduct a large-scale screening, eliminating the possibility of being teleported away by magical artifacts that could be used for hiding. Next, as long as he came to this room, he would know exactly what was in the torture chamber.

That's why he's called the number one torturer in the Chinese server.

Damn it, Li Wenyin wanted to curse. How was she supposed to explain this? She was just curious and wanted to explore the truth, so she accidentally used an invisibility cloak to follow into the torture room to watch.

Can we trust Zhou Mixuan?

Li Wenyin pondered deeply. Perhaps if she said a few more kind words, would Vice President Zhou let her off the hook?

Or should we find an opportunity later to give Vice President Zhou another personality-switching technique...?

There's one more thing...

Just as Li Wenyin was racking her brains trying to figure out how to get through this, the room door was suddenly pulled open.

It's unclear whether it was Zhou Mixuan's real body or a clone that arrived, but Zhou Mixuan arrived incredibly fast, immediately coming face to face with Li Wenyin in the room.

Li Wenyin was no longer wearing her school uniform and was only wearing thermal underwear and a wool sweater underneath. Fortunately, it had been almost two months since the start of the school year and autumn had arrived, so her inner clothing was still quite thick; otherwise, it would have been even more embarrassing.

"..." Li Wenyin raised her hand shakily, "Hi, Vice President."

Without a school uniform and of unknown origin, Li Wenyin's mind raced as she tried to concoct a plausible reason to explain herself.

If all else fails...

They were eyeing Zhou Mixuan's head, planning to strike her on the head later.

What happens next is not important at all; whatever happens to it, it can't fall into Zhou Mixuan's hands.

Zhou Mixuan stared at her: "Who are you, and why are you here?"

"I..." Li Wenyin was about to start making things up.

"Tap, tap, tap"

The sound of heels lightly tapping the ground.

One sound after another, the footsteps were neither hurried nor slow, but steady, and came softly from behind Li Wenyin.

"Vice Chairman Zhou, why are these items being transported to my room in the middle of the night?"

A clear and gentle male voice.

"!" Li Wenyin turned around abruptly and saw a long-haired beauty who looked all too familiar. She was wearing a silver-white school uniform jacket and was walking slowly towards her side, smiling as she looked at Zhou Mixuan at the door.

Yuchi Quan?!

The person beside her had long, flowing hair, and the gentle smile on her face perfectly overlapped with the person in her memory, without revealing the slightest flaw. Standing next to her, he looked exactly like a certain president who should be far away.

Wait a minute, why is the president here? And what happened to Li Wenyin earlier? Where's her little cat, Youyou?!

Could it be...?

"President?" Zhou Mixuan's expression relaxed slightly as she asked, "Shouldn't you be on a scientific expedition in Antarctica? You've returned early?"

Li Wenyin: "..."

Antarctic scientific expedition...

No wonder the student council has so many problems; no one has gone to invite the president back.

"It's not the real body," Yu Chi Quan explained calmly. "I heard something happened here, so I sent an image to take a look. You still haven't answered my question."

"It seems like rats have gotten into the torture room, so I checked. Luckily, your room is the only one in the student council that should be empty, so I teleported everyone here," Zhou Mixuan said, glancing at Li Wenyin. "Has she been in your room the whole time?"

Yu Chi Quan: "Yes, it's always been there."

Li Wenyin readily agreed: "Yes, I have long admired the president's extensive knowledge and have come here specifically to seek his guidance."

Zhou Mixuan raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at the two of them, one wearing a school uniform jacket and the other not wearing a jacket at all, and it was midnight.

He offered a friendly reminder: "President, she should still be a minor."

"..." Yu Chi Quan smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"Alright, there's no one else here, right? I won't bother you any longer." Zhou Mixuan closed the door and took her leave, seemingly not wanting to know too much about the president's unethical behavior.

As soon as he left, Li Wenyin immediately turned to look at Yuchi Quan: "Youyou, is that you? Why do you look like the president?"

(Thank you so much for the free gifts you all gave me! You guys are much kinder to me than Rotten Tomatoes are to me!)

Yuchi Quan's reputation was ruined (X)
