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

what......

In that instant, Lazy Hat's movements became somewhat sluggish. Her words and actions were usually slow and gentle, but now, a stiffness and sluggishness were very obvious on her, which the perceptive Li Wenyin and Qin Guanyu could both observe.

The Sloth Hat slightly turned its head, tilting it towards Qin Guanyu. Its eyelids were always lowered, never showing any sign of being raised, yet it could still see them clearly.

It's Qin Guanyu again...

It's Qin Guanyu again.

The NPC Qingqing was discovered by Qin Guanyu.

The reason for his discovery was even somewhat ridiculous and absurd. Just because NPC Qingqing used a period instead of an exclamation mark at the end of her sentence, he concluded that NPC Qingqing had developed an abnormal emotion and that he had to go find NPC Qingqing to check on her.

Now, how did he discover it?

The Sloth Hat asked him, "Why do you say that?"

Qin Guanyu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment: "You like the Holy Emperor Grove Flower."

"There are many people who like the Saint Gerro flower," the Sloth Hat retorted casually.

Qin Guanyu looked at her solemnly and firmly: "But there is only one Qingqing who likes the Holy Emperor's Flower."

The Sloth Hat suddenly made a slip of the tongue.

"Are you Qingqing?" As gentle as Qin Guanyu was, he always spoke softly and gently when questioning people, without putting any pressure on them. His tone was not oppressive at all, as if it didn't matter whether he answered properly or not at all.

The Sloth Hat stood quietly, without saying a word.

When Qin Guanyu first said this, Li Wenyin was a little shocked. But after thinking about it carefully, the more she thought about it, the more it made sense. Hey! It's very likely!

When they were doing the quest for NPC Qingqing, they went to Canghai Academy, and Qingqing was from Canghai Academy.

Now, as one of the many minor points of doubt, the meeting place chosen by the player "Don't Mind Too Much About Huayuan" is also Canghaiyuan.

Add to that the Saint Emperor Flower... Li Wenyin paused, then searched through her game log from when she was doing the mission. She saw the review notes written by the player "Don't Mind Too Much About the Flower Garden" when she was helping He Kouli complete his homework. She had written a lot of periods.

NPC Qingqing also pays attention to punctuation marks at the end of sentences...

Qin Guanyu glanced lightly at the game logs displayed by Li Wenyin, then asked Lazy Hat, "Aren't you happy?"

"Yes," Li Wenying leaned closer, "What's making you so unhappy?"

"..."

The Sloth Hat is a helpless choice.

They shouldn't have asked that.

At this point, continuing to question her true identity and the purpose of her actions, showing anger and resentment because she deceived her, is more appropriate than suddenly asking her if she's happy now, right?

Furthermore, judging from what they said, they should have already discovered all the suspicious points and made a thousand and one guesses. Why did they have to wait until the mission was over, until the ordinary day of accompanying He Kouli was over, and even after they had prepared their daily complaints and rants before parting ways, and said goodbye, before stopping her and pointing these things out?

It was almost as if... they were deliberately fulfilling her wish.

The Sloth Hat suddenly chuckled: "You guys figured it out a long time ago, why did you wait until now to say so?"

"Because of you..." Li Wenyin and Qin Guanyu exchanged a glance.

Li Wenyin scratched her cheek sheepishly: "Because you were the first to show us friendliness."

"Hmm?" the Sloth Hat hummed softly.

"Yes, you're really friendly," Qin Guanyu affirmed. "We were very nervous at first, thinking we had to find some clues and flaws, but after you arrived, you relaxed and smiled at us naturally."

Li Wenyin nodded and continued, "We really didn't know your purpose, but we could feel your friendliness, so we thought we'd just take it one step at a time and see what happens. We didn't expect that you wouldn't do anything and would just spend a student's day with us."

"Yes," Qin Guanyu gently echoed Li Wenyin's words, expressing her own feelings, "We were actually quite flustered and surprised, and didn't know what to do."

"To be honest, we've had a lot of terrible and horrifying thoughts about you!" Li Wenyin confessed.

The Sloth Hat asked in confusion, "What guess?"

Li Wenyin bared her teeth and brandished her claws: "For example, what kind of hidden identity do you have, a great magician, trapping so many students in the game just to teach everyone a lesson and make them remember the lessons of history!" Reference: Mo Xiaoguan.

Qin Guanyu: "For example, you could be an evil, mad magician who imprisons students as sacrifices to increase your own magical power!"

Li Wenyin had another idea: "Capture all the students with delicate skin and eat them!"

She shook her head, saying, "Perhaps you're sent by the Magical World's Ministry of Education to severely punish students addicted to games, to show us just how terrible game addiction is! To make us never dare to play games again!"

The Sloth Hat was amused by the two of them again.

Laughing now would be really inappropriate. The scene should be serious and formal, with a tense atmosphere, but these two are acting like they're performing a comedy show, full of energy and excitement.

The Lazy Hat chuckled softly again, its laughter causing the flower branches on its body to rustle gently—branches that should have been vibrant and full of springtime energy.

"Since you all suspect me of being so terrifying, shouldn't you be even more wary of me?"

"Because, later..." Li Wenyin paused, "I became certain that you meant well."

"Because," Qin Guanyu smiled, lowering his eyes, "you are Qingqing."

She likes the Saint Emperor Flower, and when she's in a good mood, she uses an exclamation mark. She's willing to fight back for them, Qingqing.

The clear-headed and fearless young man, faced with a perplexing situation and the mysterious and enigmatic woman standing before him, should have felt fear, apprehension, and hostility.

But it was only because she was the prototype of Qingqing, the NPC they knew, and only because she smiled first and showed kindness, that they patiently observed her and accompanied her. Even their confrontations and questions when they exposed her seemed so gentle.

Why be so gentle? Honestly.

If the Sloth Hat really harbored malicious intent, wouldn't both of them have been utterly harmed?

You can't do that.

The Sloth Hat said softly, with utter helplessness, "In your opinion, what's the situation now?"

Li Wenyin pondered and tentatively asked, "Are we constantly cycling through this same game day?"

Yuchi Quan came out of the room after smelling a burnt smell.

He briefly communicated with Teacher Wuya, reporting the situation. Although his words conveyed the message, "I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me, I just wanted to let you know," he had at least completed the task Li Wenyin had assigned him.

Then they continued to research how to kill Yuchi Ting.

This is truly a complex and difficult problem. After repeated verification, ordinary methods of death have no effect on Yu Chi Ting, and even potent poisons are as easy for him as drinking soup or water.

However, Li Wenyin recently gave him some inspiration.

Li Wenyin once said that what could hurt Yuchi Ting the most was the dark magic of positive emotions.

Ironically, what was a sweet treat for others, reducing the erosion of dark magic and mitigating side effects, was the greatest poison for Yu Chi Ting.

However, Yu Chi Ting deserved it all.

Yu Chi Quan tried to draw out the dark magic of positive emotions within himself.

Recently, the number of "sound balls" in my body has surged. In addition, a whole bunch of other balls have also been produced, such as "triumphant hands on hips balls," "happy laughing balls," "reminiscing balls," and "joyful spiraling upwards balls."

These are all strange names given by Li Wenyin; she is dedicated to naming each and every one of his balls.

Yu Chi Quan pinched the black magic ball and added it to the potion.

Yu Chi Quan was very reluctant to feed these to Yu Chi Ting. In the past, he could hardly produce even a tiny bit of such dark magic power in a year or two. Now that he had finally increased so much, he had to use it to make medicine.

Yu Chi Quan added it with a mix of regret and pity, but thankfully it was now, and thankfully he was very happy and content recently.

What could harm Yu Chi Ting was the dark magic of happiness. If this had been discovered before, I wonder how absurd he would have found it. How unhappy Yu Chi Ting and Lin Feng had made him, and yet he had to be happy to get revenge? It was as if fate was playing a cruel joke on him, maliciously mocking his life.

If Li Wenyin weren't here, I can't even imagine how ridiculous Yuchi Quan would find it after discovering the truth, or what extreme measures he would take. If Li Wenyin weren't here, he...

Yuchi Quan shook his head.

How can you assume that Li Wenyin isn't there? She was clearly there, and she even said she loved him very much.

After some preparation and cooking, a pot of blissful potion for Yuchi Ting's special attack was ready.

Yuchi Quan looked at it leisurely, thinking that whether he could become an orphan in one fell swoop depended on it.

Yuchi Quan smelled a burnt odor.

The cake smells burnt.

The burnt smell even wafted into his room; that's how badly it was burned.

Somewhat puzzled, Yu Chi Quan took the potion and went out, following the scent downstairs.

The smell of burning was coming from the small kitchen in the first-floor common rest area. Yu Chiquan went in and dealt with it urgently.

It's cake batter that Qin Guanyu baked.

It's already 10:30 pm, and those five people are still lying there playing games.

This is very strange. When has the meticulous Qin Guanyu ever been so careless? Did he not calculate the time to come out correctly?

Yu Chi Quan looked down at the five people lying side by side, each completely engrossed in their game.

Still sleeping and playing? The dormitory building almost caught fire! Thanks to him, you should get up and be grateful to him.

Especially Li Wenyin. Although Qin Guanyu burned the cake, the biggest responsibility definitely lies with Li Wenyin, who wanted to eat the cake. Therefore, Yuchi Quan didn't care. He wanted Li Wenyin to be grateful to him.

Yu Chi Quan squatted down and gently pressed the newly made bottle of happiness potion against Li Wenyin's face, poking her cheek idly.

"Aren't you going to come find me?"

With a soft rustling sound.

The bottle of happiness potion that Yu Chiquan was holding in his fingers had disappeared.

Yuchi Quan: "???"

What happened? Did Li Wenyin's face eat the potion?
