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

The medical department is relatively quiet.

After all, the school itself has a school hospital, and those who come to the student union's medical department for treatment are mostly members of the student union, or special victims like those in the Ruiyuan incident last time.

Li Wenyin came here because she couldn't find the clothing matching department, so she just stopped by to scan something.

Not long after Zhu Yunxi went inside, Shangguan Yu returned after picking up his things.

When he returned, he saw Zhu Yunxi pouring water beside him, and his gaze softened, revealing a hint of relief.

Then Shangguan Yu slowly reached out to Zhu Yunxi, and Zhu Yunxi simply tilted her head back and poured herself a drink.

Zhu Yunxi only noticed Shangguan Yu's hand, frozen in mid-air, after drinking half of it, and once again showed a very confused look.

"minister?"

Shangguan Yu: "..."

He paused for a moment, then said nothing.

Li Wenyin glanced at him and thoughtfully reminded him, "Senior Sister Zhu, Minister Shangguan might be a little thirsty."

"!"

Zhu Yunxi seemed to understand, turned around and poured herself another glass of water, this time handing it to Shangguan Yu.

But she was using a cup with a handle, and she was holding the handle herself.

Clearly, Shangguan Yu didn't care much about these small details; he smiled and reached out to take it.

My fingers just touched the cup.

It quickly shrank back again.

Oh my god...

Li Wenyin thought to herself.

It's still hot.

"?" Zhu Yunxi seemed confused. "Didn't the minister want some water?"

Shangguan Yu closed his eyes, feeling a bit of a headache, and said, "Xiao Zhu, you can leave it for now. I'll drink it later."

After saying that, he turned to look at Li Wenyin: "I'm sorry, my assistant... she's not very perceptive, please excuse her."

"I can see that." Li Wenyin nodded.

It's not immediately obvious which of the two is whose assistant.

Zhu Yunxi, who lacked tact and had a stern face, was very confused. She frowned and thought for a while before going over to close the door. Then, like a little ornament, she stood blankly at the door as a doorman.

Busy Shangguan Yu decided to take charge of everything himself, and called Li Wenyin to stand next to the machine to scan. He was quite helpless and did not expect his little assistant to be of any help. It seemed that her obediently staying by his side and watching was the greatest help he could give.

-

After a while, the scan was finally finished. Li Wenyin had changed into another princess dress, lifted the hem of her dress, and walked around to look at the monitor.

The images scanned by the magic device were quite similar to X-ray scans in ordinary hospitals, directly penetrating the bones.

But what's different is that the images scanned by this scanning device, in addition to the human skeleton and other tissues, also show colorful lights distributed throughout the body.

Li Wenyin guessed that this must be some kind of magic power within her body.

"Leave the professional work to the professionals," Li Wenyin said after watching for a while without understanding. "Minister Shangguan, have you figured out what's going on?"

"Hmm..." Shangguan Yu gently pinched his chin, scrutinizing the screen. "Do you often stay up late eating ice cream and spicy food?"

"?" Li Wenyin was taken aback. "No, isn't this a human body scan? Minister Shangguan, how did you arrive at this TCM-style result?"

And they were all right.

She took a step back warily. How come they're offering a combined Chinese and Western medicine approach to treatment?

Li Wenyin was a little worried that if she let him take her pulse again, he would calculate her menstrual cycle and other things.

"Sorry, my occupational hazard kicked in," Shangguan Yu smiled apologetically, looking back at the screen. "The magical artifact on you... has been found. It's here."

Li Wenyin followed his finger and saw that where his fingertip was pointing was a pale purple dot of light on her neck.

Li Wenyin looked down and saw that she was wearing a very beautiful diamond necklace around her neck.

She gently lifted it a little: "Is this a transformation device?"

"Yes, but it's very interesting that this magical artifact is mobile."

Shangguan Yu pulled out his wand from his sleeve and gently tapped the screen. The screen, which had been frozen in time, immediately started moving.

Li Wenyin saw that the pale purple dot that Shangguan Yu had pointed out was now moving all over her body, sometimes turning into a shoe heel, sometimes into her hat, and sometimes into her earring.

Shangguan Yu: "This demonic artifact hasn't disappeared; rather, it's on your body, constantly changing its form and moving around all over you, making it very difficult to catch."

"This is disgusting," Li Wenyin muttered. "Doesn't it mean we have to be completely naked to take it off?"

No, it's very difficult. If Li Wenyin takes off one piece of clothing, the transformation artifact can immediately put another one on her. Unless it blows all her clothes and jewelry off in one go before it can react, it's impossible to take it off.

Which bored lunatic invented this thing? And they even made it so it could move around, as if they were afraid it would be taken off, right?

"Don't worry, there's no need to fret too much," Shangguan Yu said. "Magic artifacts generally require magic power to operate. If you don't actively supply it with magic power, it can stop once its original stored magic power is exhausted."

I just don't know how long it will take.

But at least there was something to look forward to, and Li Wenyin breathed a sigh of relief.

Since she was already there and the filming had already taken place, she asked, "Dr. Shangguan, could you please check if I have any other illnesses?"

Shangguan Yu gently focused his gaze on the display screen.

After a pause, he said, "It's nothing serious, but classmate, the spicy jam sandwich you ate at 2:45 AM the night before last seems unhealthy. Then, you spent too long in the toilet 15 minutes later. I suggest you avoid doing other things while on the toilet in the future, otherwise it can easily cause..."

"Cough cough cough cough!"

Li Wenyin suddenly coughed violently, interrupting Shangguan Yu's words abruptly, and awkwardly waved her hands haphazardly.

"Are you feeling unwell anywhere?" Shangguan Yu asked gently.

"No, Dr. Shangguan, um," Li Wenyin guiltily looked away, "please give me some privacy..."

Shangguan Yu smiled in response.

-

After Li Wenyin finished asking her question, there was nothing more to it.

However, since she had come to the medical department, she was required to write a report and record all the treatments, big or small. Shangguan Yu went to organize the data and write the report, so she sat on the chair next to him and waited for him to sign the report so she could leave.

When she had nothing to do, Li Wenyin would curiously look around at the other people.

There weren't many people in the medical department, but the flow of people was orderly. The people in white uniforms here seemed to carry a special meaning, giving people a sense of security.

As she was looking at a vibrant green plant with great interest, she suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.

A...sweet fragrance.

It's somewhat similar to the exotic scent on Yuchi Quan, but not quite the same. This sweet scent is sweeter and more cloying, lacking the "delicious" quality of Yuchi Quan's exotic scent. Instead, it's a slightly pungent sweetness.

This fragrance cannot be compared to food, and Li Wenyin always vaguely felt that she did not "smell" it with her nose, but rather it came from a "smell" deep within her body.

It's hard to describe, but at this moment, Li Wenyin did smell a sweet fragrance.

She looked around suspiciously, following the scent, and saw a tall boy in an oak school uniform walking out of a consultation room not far away. He was looking down and carrying a backpack, and he didn't seem to be in a good mood.

Did he bring that strange smell?

Curious, Li Wenyin couldn't help but ask Zhu Yunxi, who stood by the door like a doorman, "Senior Zhu, do you know that student?"

Zhu Yunxi examined him with a serious expression and replied, "I know him, Si Zeyi."

Si Zeyi?

Li Wenyin felt a jolt in her heart.

She knew...

Si Zeyi is the older brother of the novel's female protagonist, Si Weilan.

-

The original plot of the novel was too far removed from Li Wenyin's memory and too unreal to recall in a vague and unreliable way. She had to encounter certain scenes or meet certain people to vaguely and barely remember anything.

Even if she remembers, she can't completely trust or rely on the plot. She has been in this world for more than ten years, so it's very likely that she has misremembered or missed something.

Moreover, based on her many days of actual schooling, the world she saw was not quite the same as the one described in the novel.

The plot of a novel can only serve as a perspective for reference. Li Wenyin now prefers to explore on her own, to see and hear with her own eyes and ears, and to think and judge for herself.

Li Wenyin had some impression of this Si Zeyi.

This seems to be the first time Li Wenyin has encountered someone who originally belonged to the "protagonist group" of the novel.

Si Zeyi is the older brother of the female protagonist Si Weilan, and he is also the reason why Si Weilan infiltrated the school under an assumed name.

Si Weilan comes from a wealthy family, but she was admitted to the university as one of the six "special students" selected by lottery because she met a real "special student" named Xu Tingqiu before enrolling.

Si Weilan and Xu Tingqiu reached an agreement and swapped identities to enroll in the university.

Si Weilan concealed her wealthy background and transformed herself into Xu Tingqiu, a penniless and helpless girl, all for the sake of her brother Si Zeyi.

Si Zeyi has disappeared.

Si Weilan disappeared before she enrolled in school. It is unknown how long she has been missing, but she has not returned home for a year. The Si family is worried and investigates, but they find no trace of Si Zeyi. The spies they sent out are also missing.

The magic school is a gathering place for outstanding talents, and various families are deeply intertwined. Si Weilan is worried about her brother, but as the eldest daughter of the Si family, she is inconvenient to act and is easily targeted by others.

So he swapped identities with Xu Tingqiu, a special needs student, in order to find his missing brother.

Si Zeyi...

-

As Li Wenyin was thinking about his affairs, Si Zeyi walked up to her with his bag in his arms, his steps hurried, as if he was in a hurry to do something.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Zhu Yunxi stepped aside and opened the door for him.

"bite."

Li Wenyin heard a very faint and inexplicably clear tinkling sound.

Then she looked up and saw Si Zeyi looking at her with a complicated expression. His complicated gaze didn't linger for long before he looked away after meeting Li Wenyin's questioning gaze.

Strange, Li Wenyin wondered. Si Zeyi shouldn't know her, so why was he looking at her like that?

After turning back, Si Zeyi stumbled out the door and left, accidentally bumping into Zhu Yunxi before he did.

Zhu Yunxi frowned and muttered, "What kind of person is this? Can't even walk in a straight line."

"bite."

Li Wenyin heard that faint sound again.

She looked around in confusion but couldn't find the source of the tinkling sound. It seemed that nothing had happened; Si Zeyi had just left in a hurry.

Li Wenyin asked Zhu Yunxi, "Senior Zhu, did you hear any dinging sounds?"

"No." Zhu Yunxi shook her head.

Was she hallucinating...? Li Wenyin had a slight doubt.

-

She continued to think about Si Zeyi.

Si Zeyi's disappearance is an important plotline in the early part of the novel. The main characters, including Si Weilan, go to great lengths to search for their missing brother, exploring various parts of the school.

Time seemed to stretch on for quite a while, and Li Wenyin couldn't recall some of the clues or details of the process.

But she remembered how Si Zeyi was finally found.

It's in the student council.

Li Wenyin only learned about the underground prison in the student council during the previous Ruiyuan incident. The novel seems to describe Si Zeyi being locked in a closed room in the student council, without systematically mentioning the underground prison.

When Si Weilan and the others found Si Zeyi.

Si Zeyi has gone mad.

He was pale and emaciated, no longer the noble and elegant young master of the Si family. Instead, he looked like a beggar struggling in the mud, or a rat that couldn't be seen in the gutter. He didn't even recognize his own sister, Si Weilan, and kept calling her "my living benefactor" and begging for mercy on his knees.

Si Zeyi was tortured terribly, his body was covered in wounds, he was afraid of the light, he was fearful and cowardly, his speech was incoherent and he was mentally unstable.

Seeing Si Zeyi like this broke Si Weilan's heart. The main characters tried everything they could to secretly take Si Zeyi out of the student council and hide him to recover from his injuries. Then they investigated the truth and searched for the reason why Si Zeyi had disappeared and gone mad.

All the clues indicate that the truth is...

The student council president is Yuchi Quanqian.

As she recalled this, Li Wenyin suddenly felt a terrible headache.

Even though she had just finished seeing the doctor, Li Wenyin felt she needed to go to Shangguan Yu for another X-ray.

Oh, again.

-

In the novel, student council president Yu Chiquan not only acquiesced to, but also seemed to participate in, and even orchestrate, Si Zeyi's disappearance and madness.

And whenever the name "Yuchi Quan" was mentioned, the insane Si Zeyi became extremely agitated and frightened, stammering something like "Don't come any closer."

Based on this, the main characters speculated that Si Zeyi was very likely tortured by Yuchi Quan. He was a seemingly respectable but actually depraved and wicked man who was imprisoned and tortured to the point of madness. The purpose was easy to guess: either for the Si family's ancestral magic, or he was just a depraved man who enjoyed torturing students.

Following this line of investigation, the truth was eventually revealed to be that Yu Chi Quan was behind it. From then on, the main characters harbored a deep grudge against Yu Chi Quan, who gradually slid into a powerful and morally reprehensible villain.

Li Wenyin had a headache. On one hand, she was recalling the plot of the novel. Si Zeyi was indeed discovered in the student council, and the clues also indicated that it was indeed Yu Chiquan who did it. Yu Chiquan even seemed to have admitted it.

On the other hand, she thought about that hypocrite who loved drinking strawberry milk.

Um......

She still needs to follow up on this matter carefully.
