In addition, he must have caught a cold; his body felt heavy, his head was spinning, and he was coughing up some white stuff. All of this made him feel scared and uneasy.

He plans to ask his teacher for a long leave later.

Hopefully, Dr. Kuroda can investigate the composition of the white crystals and find a way to treat him.

Thinking about it, Tetsuro Mukoda coughed again. He covered his mouth and felt the solid object in his hand. His expression changed slightly.

If people see him vomiting this stuff, don't assume he has a contagious disease.

He quickly got up and went out.

He was completely unaware that someone was paying close attention to him.

Jiuzhi Che seemed to be deep in thought. Xiangtian Tetsuro covered himself up very well, but a glimpse of his side was visible for a moment. If I wasn't mistaken, it was a white solid object.

To verify his hypothesis, Jiuzhiche slung his backpack over his shoulder and followed them out.

In the distance, Tetsuro Mukoda's figure disappeared into the restroom.

The people he passed along the route were not covered in gray-black mist, so they seemed to have escaped the curse.

In other words, it was in powder form yesterday, which may have meant that the substance was unstable in his brain, but today it is in solid form and stable, so it will not cause infection when exposed to air.

"I want to see outside! Let me out!"

The female student passing by looked over in surprise. Had she misheard? Why did this boy's voice sound like a girl's?

Jiuzhi Che smiled at the female student, then quickly left.

"When did our school get such a handsome guy? Is he a voice actor? Wow, that's like dating multiple people instead of just one!" The female student swooned for a while, planning to share her joy at seeing the handsome guy with her best friend later.

Jiuzhiche turned into a corner next to the toilet, a place where almost no one passed by.

"Tomie, are you trying to kill us?"

"But it's stuffy in there, why don't you come in and try it!"

The backpack was opened a crack, revealing a bag full of hair. Tomie in the center looked disgusted and complained, "Ache, I can't take it anymore. I think I'll just go back. Even if that monster comes, I'm confident I can kill him. I missed yesterday, and that filthy blood almost sprayed all over me. This time I'm sure I can get the angle right."

She even seemed a little eager to try.

"No, I can't rest easy about it."

Jiuzhi Che refused without hesitation.

Tomie raised an eyebrow, her eyes crinkling with laughter, and said in a tone that said, "What, now you know how important I am? I told you, no man in the world can resist my beauty, hehe—"

The triumphant and arrogant laughter came to an abrupt halt. Tomie's eyes widened in anger as Kyuji Tetsu covered her mouth.

"Keep your voice down."

After giving a brief instruction, Jiuzhi Che took out a leather mask from the side pocket of his backpack, then zipped up the backpack and walked towards Mukaida Tetsuro who had come out.

A head peeked out from the other side of the corner.

A gaze was fixed on Jiu Zhiche's back, then slowly moved down. When she saw the backpack move a few times, as if the thing inside was scratching and struggling, she almost cried out in surprise.

Is it a rabbit? Or a kitten?

Who was he talking to just now?

She seemed to hear a woman's laughter...

Chapter 9 Experiment, Curse Countermeasure

"I...I didn't see clearly. I just came out of the restroom and someone punched me..."

"Xiangtian, have you encountered any difficulties lately? Is someone bullying you? Or what happened?"

"...Teacher, I don't know who beat me up. No one usually bullies me. I want to ask for a long leave this time because I'm sick."

"OK then."

Ms. Takagi gave Tetsuro Mukoda a long leave slip, saying, "Go to the infirmary to treat your wound first. Don't worry about your studies. If it takes too long, you can apply to repeat this grade. Take good care of yourself."

"Thank you, teacher."

Stepping out of the office, Tetsuro Mukata took a deep breath to suppress the stinging in his eyes. Takagi-sensei was a very good person, and he really wanted to continue being his student.

"Hi~"

Tetsuro Mukoda rubbed his face. That mysterious man was really ruthless. His teeth were loosened, and he was coughing violently uncontrollably. He was in pain and discomfort, and he didn't know what had happened to the white stuff he had vomited.

Perhaps the white things were the reason he had nightmares.

Will others get infected if they come into contact with it?

Tetsuro Mukoda rushed to the spot where he had been knocked down, but there was nothing on the ground.

He sighed.

It should have been cleaned up by the cleaning staff by now.

......

Amano Kori is in love.

Just yesterday, she fell in love at first sight with the new transfer student.

I was planning to dress up nicely today and chat up the transfer student, but when I got out of bed, I almost couldn't catch my breath.

Last night she dreamt that her sister was dumped by her boyfriend, and in a fit of anger, she cut off her hair. But somehow, her once beautiful long hair came to life and began to run wild in her attic. That damned hair strangled her, entangled her, and burrowed into her body, stabbing her to death...

Therefore, she didn't feel like dressing up and just came to school.

After tidying herself up in her seat, Amano Kori went to the transfer student's desk, only to find that the student wasn't there.

"Hey!"

She called out to the transparent girl who had just returned from outside, "Where did Jiuzhi go?"

The girl stopped abruptly and whispered, "I don't know."

"I really don't know, why would I even think of asking you?" Amano Xiaoli complained. Although the transparent girl was Jiuzhi Che's deskmate, no one would want to be friends with her, so how would she know where Jiuzhi Che was?

"I'm sorry."

The girl apologized softly, but Amano Kori, who had already turned around, didn't pause at all. She didn't hear it, and even if she did, she wouldn't waste a moment for a gloomy, invisible classmate whose face she couldn't remember.

On the rooftop.

"Great, at least it can breathe now."

Tomie looked slightly pleased with herself. After enjoying the breeze for a while, she looked at Kyuichi Che with curiosity: "Did that guy have a grudge against you?"

I don't like him.

Because he was cursed, Jiu Zhiche felt he had restrained himself. Of course, his main purpose was not to beat him up to vent his anger.

Jiuzhiche took out the cleaned white crystal, crushed it with a little force, and the crystal turned into powder and spread in his palm.

"Hey, what kind of fetish is this?"

Tomie frowned in disgust. She had seen it through the zipper gap; the man had spat it out.

How are you feeling right now?

Jiuzhi Che looked Tomie up and down, and Tomie rolled her eyes: "It's very uncomfortable, it's disgusting! You're not allowed to touch me with that hand!"

After observing for two minutes, until Tomie was about to curse, Kyuji Che finally looked away.

There was no gray-black mist, so it seems highly likely that the person was not infected with the Long Dream Curse.

So the reason he didn't dream last night might really be because Tomie was by his side.

What is this? Is Tomie some kind of curse?

Curses fight against curses, so they have no effect?

This small experiment verified some of Jiuzhi Che's conjectures, making his special trip with Tomie worthwhile.

He thought the infection could only occur near the white powder, otherwise he wouldn't have risked bringing the head out. If he had known it would turn into a crystalline form and be easier to carry, he wouldn't have brought this megaphone.

Jiuzhiche spent the afternoon slacking off, browsing through templates until he finally found one that might be useful.

"Immunity": Immune curse, illusion.

The Long Dream Curse is still active in the status section. What if Tomie becomes useless in the future and the curse breaks out? And since he is immortal, that would be eternal torment.

He must plan ahead.

He absolutely must obtain the immune template!

When school was over, Jiu Zhiche left his seat without noticing that his deskmate next to him slumped down and clearly breathed a sigh of relief.

He... he's finally gone.

As the transfer student's deskmate, she was receiving so much attention for the first time, and even though those gazes were just unavoidable glances, they still put a lot of pressure on her.

From childhood to adulthood, she has always been an invisible person, with no friends, no one caring about her, and even regarded as an omen of bad luck by some. She has become accustomed to this kind of life.

But now, she has a feeling that her previously lonely and peaceful life is about to be disrupted.

Jiuzhiche, that's his name.

He's so handsome, so incredibly handsome, even more handsome than any male lead in any idol drama she's ever watched.

However, he was very indifferent.

He doesn't chat or get to know anyone, and he keeps a cold face and never says a word to the girls who approach him.

Despite her privileged position, he has only spoken two words to her so far.

"Make way."

"You can put your feet down now."

She wrote these words stroke by stroke.

His voice is also very pleasant to hear.

Listening to him speak made her ears tingle and feel itchy.

She looked down and, seeing the two sentences she had written on the page, closed the book with a guilty conscience.

If he has a kitten, could I ask him about his cat-raising experience tomorrow...?
