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

On the way out, many little dolls came to see her off, and one of the dolls hugged Yu Zhiyuan's lower body and cried with reluctance.

They chatted amiably for a few moments, but they couldn't waste any more time. It was getting late, the mimicry magic was about to wear off, and they had to revert back to their original forms.

Surrounded by a group of miniature dolls, Qin Guanyu felt much more relaxed after completely letting go of his royal airs, and he got along much better with the dolls.

Li Wenyin watched him from the side for a long time without saying a word.

"What are you thinking about?" Yu Chi Quan walked around from the side.

"I was thinking that, through the gallery, I learned that many of the little dolls here are based on real people."

Li Wenyin spoke to Yuchi Quan in a low voice, but her eyes were always on Qin Guanyu.

"Could there be... or a few small dolls modeled after Aunt Qin?"

Upon hearing this, Yuchi Quan looked over and then smiled slightly.

"Who knows?"

-

Before leaving, they decided to give Mu Fengmao one last push to complete his "Supreme Painting" so that he could leave a good reputation here.

They gathered paper and paint from all over the place, and decided to make a handprint painting, just like the "Supreme Painting".

And so, a magical handprint painting was born.

The handprints of three miniature dolls.

One mouse paw print, one cat paw print.

There's also a strange little square tombstone imprint.

After pressing their handprints, they left their names next to their own handprints and finally handed them to Qin Guanyu to take back to the palace.

"It's a bit like setting a flag," Yu Chiquan said.

"What flag? Don't talk nonsense," Li Wenyin put her index finger to her lips to make a "shh" sign, and then said, "Our generation will definitely be able to protect him."

Yu Chi Quan: "Keep it up!"

"What 'cheer up'? Hey, don't go! You have to come with me!" Li Wenyin followed and pulled him along. "We've been classmates for so many days, and we know so many secrets together. What about our unwavering revolutionary friendship?"

Yu Chi Quan smiled gently: "I don't know, it may have disappeared."

Li Wenyin was unhappy and continued to argue incessantly.

-

Li Wenyin probably realized it.

She accidentally... got used to holding Yuchi Quan's hand.

Perhaps it's because Mu You is too deceptive, or perhaps it's because Yu Chi Quan in the food processing factory is in the form of a miniature doll. Even if he grows bigger and more handsome, he's still just a slightly larger and more handsome miniature doll, and he still looks strangely cute.

She really didn't have the real feeling that he was the student council president, Yu Chi Quan.

Knowing something in your mind is one thing, but feeling it in your subconscious is another.

When did she suddenly realize this?

It was in that magical, pitch-black tunnel.

One second she was holding the hand of the miniature version of Yuchi Quan, muttering about "love," "friendship," and "bonds."

The next second, I suddenly felt the hand I was holding grow longer and more delicate, warm and smooth, with distinct knuckles. The slender fingers gently closed and clasped around me, not rejecting my touch.

Li Wenyin suddenly became obedient.

They were as quiet as a deflated hot sauce bread roll.

Although I couldn't see them, I could feel the figures of the people around me gradually lengthening and growing taller in the darkness. A familiar feeling washed over me, along with a vague sense of oppression...

At this moment, Li Wenyin finally realized that this person was "that man".

Why go through all that trouble if you're going to kill them?

She stared resentfully in the direction of her hand.

"Li Wenyin?"

A gentle voice carrying a light laugh drifted over.

Li Wenyin was jolted awake. Her past crimes flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern. She realized that she was powerless to defend herself and that the only way out was to play dumb.

"Oh, what's wrong, Chairman?"

"Why did you suddenly stop talking?" Yu Chi Quan asked.

Li Wenyin: "Maybe I'm just naturally quiet and reserved!"

Yu Chiquan smiled and did not express any objection.

After a while, as they approached the exit of the passageway, he slowly spoke.

"After leaving here, I will also be leaving."

Li Wenyin's eyelashes trembled slightly.

what......

She unconsciously pulled her fingers back slightly, then asked, "Will you be very busy after returning to the student council?"

"Hmm," Yuchi Quan replied.

Just thinking about it annoys me; I'm really busy.

Li Wenyin nodded and began to ramble on and on: "Oh... let me think, I have my midterm exams coming up soon, then there are school-organized recreational activities, then studying and attending classes, and then the final exams are coming up soon, and then it's winter break. Thinking about it like this, time really flies..."

"Questioning Sound".

A hand gently touched my head.

Li Wenyin's rambling stopped abruptly.

"I had some doubts that night at the student council," Yu Chiquan asked softly, "Were you feeling a little anxious?"

"Ah..." Li Wenyin chuckled and waved her hand, "No way, I'm known for being happy, carefree, and without a care in the world."

"Even the healthiest person will have negative emotions, and that's not contradictory."

Yuchi Quan continued.

"Besides, I know your family background, which seems to have absolutely nothing to do with health."

"..." Li Wenyin almost forgot that this person was the head of the student council.

She opened her mouth, but after a long while, she finally spoke: "I'm a little reluctant to part with Youyou."

Just as Yu Chiquan was about to say something, Li Wenyin interrupted him with a few more words.

"I also can't bear to part with you."

"I am very sorry about what happened to Aunt Qin and the thirteen head chefs."

"I think the fourteen of them should have thought about not being separated and doing their best to protect Aunt Qin."

"Perhaps they really did succeed. The food processing plant was built more than ten years ago, and Aunt Qin helped a lot. So it seems they have always kept in touch."

"Perhaps... it's possible they met the day before, and then Aunt Qin had an accident the next day."

"Suddenly... a friend of many years is gone just like that, I can't take it."

Especially those people you've protected for so many years.

-

Li Wenyin recalled the night she faced Ruiyuan at the student council, and the moment she panicked when she mistakenly thought that Mu had been splattered with blood.

She remembered that Yu Chiquan had said that he had a physical problem and could not use magic, which was when he was at his weakest. She also remembered that when she first met Mu You, he was burning up, fragile and easily injured, and on the verge of death.

And then, right under her nose, something almost happened because of her.

At that moment, overwhelming panic and a sense of powerlessness, as if nothing could change the situation, engulfed her.

Li Wenyin couldn't ignore this feeling, and the future plot of his character in the original book that he remembered in his mind, where he would be corrupted by black magic, ultimately defeated, and meet a tragic end.

Li Wenyin comforted herself that she had already changed the future. Putting everything else aside, Xing Rui was saved, Rui Yuan was behaving himself, and the matter of the Monster Forest had been investigated and clarified.

But she still feels panicked.

Because of Yuchi Quan.

He was the first person to reach out to her.

It shone in like a beam of light.

Only then could Li Wenyin continue to burn the fire recklessly, charging forward bravely and fearlessly.

For whatever reason, she hoped he wouldn't repeat the mistakes of the original book, and she didn't want his future to be like that.

"Want a hug?" The person next to her noticed her wandering thoughts and offered.

Li Wenyin snapped out of her daze, turned her head, and generously reached out to give him a hug.

After transforming back, the strange fragrance on Yuchi Quan's body disappeared, replaced by a very pleasant and refreshing scent.

It was very comfortable to hold him. Li Wenyin could feel his long hair falling down when she raised her hand. Being buried in his arms gave her a very stable and reassuring feeling.

He gently patted Li Wenyin's head, showing tact and restraint, and patted her back reassuringly.

He is such a gentle, kind person.

However, Yuchi Quan spoke up again.

"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, we should be able to see each other again after the midterms."

"...Why? Solitary confinement???"

What do you think?

......All right.

Li Wenyin remained silent.

A very bad cat.

-

The other friends at the door noticed something amiss.

Their mimicry magic had been dispelled, and they were each familiarizing themselves with the somewhat unfamiliar human body.

Then I looked back at the two people embracing inside the door.

Pei Yuan: "Are those two alright?"

Mu Feng: "Is Li Wenyin going to do something wrong?"

Yu Zhiyuan: "Aren't they hungry?"

Qin Guanyu: "I learned to cook a few dishes at the processing plant."

"..." Pei Yuan withdrew his gaze speechlessly. "It's hard to imagine that we are classmates."

Mu Feng chuckled like a fool: "I am indeed hungry."

"Eat, all you ever think about is eating." Pei Yuan rolled her eyes at him.

Mu Feng felt that he was acting strangely, wondering if he had become too naive after being a rat for so long.

Qin Guanyu smiled and said, "I'll cook for you guys when I have the chance."

Pei Yuan: "It's not the food in the cafeteria now, is it?"

"No, that's their playful remake; I learned from the old version," Qin Guanyu said.

That put Pei Yuan at ease.

-

After a while, Yuchi Quan left from another direction, and Li Wenyin came over to join them.

"Li Wenyin, what did the president say to you just now?" Mu Feng asked curiously as he leaned closer.

Li Wenyin: "Speaking of this strange passage, this is not the passage we were originally supposed to take."

"What?!" Mu Feng exclaimed in shock. "But didn't we come in with Teacher Wu Ya?"

"Hmm," Yu Zhiyuan began, "Then, what about Teacher Wuya?"

Mu Feng suddenly understood.

Yeah, we almost forgot about that. They came in with Teacher Wuya. Where is Teacher Wuya?

There wasn't a trace of him in the food processing plant.

Qin Guanyu asked in confusion, "Teacher? Is the teacher here too?"

"You've never seen him before?" Pei Yuan frowned slightly. "We noticed that he's been loitering around the cafeteria for the past few days, which made us suspicious, so we decided to come and investigate the cafeteria."

Qin Guanyu shook his head: "I've never seen him before. He's never eaten in the cafeteria."

Upon hearing this, the others remained silent and exchanged glances.

Mu Feng understood immediately: "So, this means he deliberately lured us here? Even those few days he lingered there, he calculated that we would end up in jail because of this?"

Pei Yuan: "I told you he was unreliable."

"Teacher Wuya is really..." Li Wenyin also chimed in with her own complaints.

Speak of the raven, and the raven arrives.

They took a step while passionately denouncing it.

Suddenly, a dark figure darted out of the bushes.

Good evening, students!

The monocle-wearing, instant noodle-headed witch crow makes a grand entrance.

"..."

Five students stared at him, seemingly dead.

"Was tonight's journey pleasant?" Teacher Wuya asked with a smile.

He really does resemble that NPC who pops up every now and then to announce the victory.

Pei Yuan: "I was almost forced to kill cockroaches."

Mu Feng: "I was almost forced to paint for the rest of my life."

Li Wenyin: "I was locked up in a prison for the mute and almost starved to death."

Yu Zhiyuan didn't say anything; she... seemed quite happy.

"Oh no," said Teacher Wuya regretfully, "that doesn't sound good."

"Teacher," Qin Guanyu asked, "why did you lead them there?"

"Yes, yes," the others glared angrily at the raven.

"Because...it's very interesting," Wu Ya adjusted his glasses, "Don't you think? It's very interesting, and you can learn a lot of knowledge from it."

They were convinced.

From now on, they must think twice before acting on anything involving Teacher Wuya.

-

The cafeteria competition is progressing fairly smoothly.

As Qin Guanyu and the toy figures grew closer, the food at the Obsidian Academy cafeteria improved. Occasionally, the thirteen head chefs, who were traveling, would use magic to make video calls back and exchange their experiences with Qin Guanyu.

It's unrealistic to expect them to reclaim the top spot anytime soon, but they managed to secure second place.

The compressed biscuits from Oak Academy and the book-scented bread from Canghai Academy were simply too awful.

After the cafeteria competition came the tense and exciting midterm exams, which proceeded smoothly throughout the entire process.

It is said that the student council president has finally returned from the Antarctic expedition. The student council has regained its backbone and its efficiency has soared. This time, there was no chaos like before during the monthly exams.

Li Wenyin also studied and prepared for the exam with great tension and excitement, and then failed the exam terribly. She walked into the exam room with full confidence, and came out with a gloomy expression.

Mu Feng also had similar symptoms to her.

At his most distraught moment, Mu Feng looked at Qin Guanyu like a demon crawling out of hell, his mind in a daze.

He spoke evilly, demanding that he kidnap some of his puppet subjects so he could play with them. He was devastated; those little puppets wouldn't even be allowed to be happy.

In response, Li Wenyin commented: "It's truly pathetic and lamentable that someone would tear up another person's umbrella after getting caught in the rain."

In addition, she really wanted a doll that could do homework.

-

The midterm exams are finally over, and before the results are released, a large-scale school entertainment event is in full swing.

The pent-up emotions of the student council are about to be released, and their gloomy mood will be relieved.

That is what everyone has been waiting for.

School dance!
