Looking at the five-story A3 teaching building, Lai was starting to have second thoughts.

Lai smiled wryly and said, "Let's start by looking in Class 1 of the third year. No matter what, it's our fault."

After saying that, Lai walked towards Class 1, Grade 3.

Fortunately, it was lunchtime and everyone was eating their lunchboxes, otherwise my behavior might have been seen as a provocation by the senior students.

"What is Lai Jun doing here in the third grade area?"

"Could that woman named 'Qiong' be a senior in high school?"

"I want to see what she looks like, whether she has a fox face!"

Sanae Ebako, standing five meters away, spoke with a serious expression.

It took almost three minutes to find Class 1 of Grade 3. During the search, I was stared at with scrutinizing eyes by several men.

Lai took a light breath and then politely knocked on the classroom door.

With a loud bang.

The classroom door was opened, and a pretty girl with rosy cheeks peeked out.

She froze the moment she saw Lai, her eyes widening in surprise.

Lai gave her a gentle smile and said in a magnetic voice, "Hello, senior. I'm a second-year student. I'm here to ask about someone."

Upon hearing that magnetic and pleasant voice, the female senior trembled uncontrollably and squeezed her legs together tightly.

She braced her right hand against the classroom door and teased, "Hey little freshman, who are you asking about?"

Lai was secretly delighted and said softly, "Senior, I wanted to ask if Mai-senpai is in this class?"

The female senior's face instantly darkened, and she said with disgust, "That vixen is from this class."

"Let me tell you, this woman is incredibly horny, so you absolutely must stay away from her."

Lai frowned, his eyes showing displeasure. How could he talk badly about others behind their backs? That was very rude.

"Let me tell you, don't be fooled by her glamorous appearance as a big star. In reality, she has been entertaining countless clients behind the scenes."

"Junior, do you know that she hasn't been to school for a month? If it weren't for the principal's reputation, he would have expelled her long ago."

The female senior kept talking, becoming more and more excited as she spoke.

While she was talking, Lai slowly peeked her head into the classroom.

There was no one else in the classroom except for a man who was not handsome or tall, but whose body was covered in large, muscular muscles.

Importantly, there was also a strong fishy smell, which told you that a major battle had just taken place inside.

"That was really fancy!"

Lai muttered to himself.

Seeing that the crazy woman was not in the classroom, Lai did not plan to stay any longer.

He walked back the way he came with light steps, as for the female senior.

Just a tool.

As he walked, he recalled what the man he had just met had said.

"That means the madwoman has been missing from the crowd for a month."

"She was supposed to be at school for the past month, but no one noticed her presence."

"She wore the 'bunny girl' outfit to make sure that people around her were aware of her presence."

In an instant, all the doubts in my heart were resolved.

Lai stroked his chin again, thinking, "Her current situation is a bit like Schrödinger's cat in quantum mechanics."

"No, no, it sounds a bit like the psychological factors of 'adolescent syndrome' in medicine."

"It's also a bit like an urban legend, where patients get diseases that resemble supernatural phenomena, such as 'hearing other people's thoughts,' 'seeing someone's future,' or 'someone's personality being swapped with someone else's."

I keep thinking, keep grabbing at my gray hair, and feel like I'm trapped in a vicious cycle.

"Gurgle..."

Just as I was completely confused, my stomach started growling with hunger.

Lai Qiao's face showed helplessness. She touched her stomach with her right hand and said with a wry smile, "Go buy some bread. You need to be full to have the energy to think."

Because of Qiong's kiss, she didn't eat breakfast or even take her lunchbox before rushing out.

As soon as he left, Ebako Sanae walked out from behind him with a blank expression.

Watching the other person's retreating figure, Green Eyes revealed a hint of doubt and morbidity.

......

After finishing his bread, he headed to the principal's office to return the money for the remaining seafood to the old man.

Receiving too much kindness from others will always make you feel uneasy.

"dong dong dong..."

Lai gently knocked on the office door.

"Come in."

A calm and authoritative voice came from inside the door, making everyone feel solemn.

With a loud bang.

Lai gently pushed open the office door and walked in.

The old man, wearing reading glasses, sat on the office sofa, staring intently at the letter in his hand with a serious expression.

Dujiang Qingling looked up and, seeing it was this brat, exclaimed in surprise, "What brings you here today?"

Lai chuckled lightly without responding, and took out a 30 yen note from his pocket.

Place the money in front of the old man under his watchful eye.

Dujiang Qingling stared at the money on the table and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you, kid? Are you trying to bribe me?"

Lai sat down on the sofa and explained, "You bought too much seafood, so I have to pay you back the rest of the money."

"After all, one shouldn't accept a reward without merit."

Upon hearing this, Dujiang Qingling didn't put the money away, but looked at him with a hint of approval.

"Put it away, consider it payment for the interview. As for the other seafood, it's a reward for getting first place in last year's exam."

After saying that, he lowered his head to look at the letter in his hand and ignored the brat.

Upon hearing his words, Lai didn't stand on ceremony and put the money back in his pocket.

If I refuse again, the old man might get upset.

Lai lay comfortably on the sofa, scrolling through the news on his phone.

You think the principal will scold him?

What a joke, what kind of relationship do I have with him?

"Ugh..."

After reading the letter in his hand, Dujiang Qingling sighed repeatedly, as if he had aged considerably despite his advanced age.

Upon hearing this, Lai put down his phone and asked with concern, "Old man, is something troublesome?"

Dujiang Qingling did not respond, but handed over the letter.

Lai reached out and took the letter, his dark eyes scanning its contents.

"Hello, Principal Dujiang."

"I am a student from Hyakkaou Private Academy in Tokyo, the student council president of this school, and the current head of the Hyakkaou family—Kirari Momobami."

"Every prestigious university will receive this letter, not for any other reason than to challenge you under the guise of a 'bet'!"

"If you win, you will get what you want: wealth, power, and beautiful women!"

"But if you lose, you'll have to change the school's name!"

"Don't worry, this is permitted by higher-ups."

"The 'Lifengyuan Higher School' is our first battle. We hope that Principal Dujiang can find a student from the school who knows how to 'gamble'."

"We also hope this student will bring us joy!"

"See you on April 8th!"

After reading it, Lai looked completely bewildered. What the heck was this?

We just signed "God of Gamblers" talent today, and he's already getting work?

Chapter 22 Private Hyakkaou Academy

Lai looked away, placed the envelope on the table, and asked doubtfully, "Is this Momobami Kirari really the student council president?"

"Why does she seem older than their school principal?"

Du Jiang Qingling smiled and teased, "You brat, are you really stupid, or are you just pretending?"

"Hyakkaou Private Academy is a school without a principal!"

"To put it bluntly, the people in charge of this school are the student council president and the Hyakugaku clan behind him!"

Upon hearing this, Lai became curious and asked, "Old man, tell me about the origins of this school. I'm a little curious."

Dujiang Qingling looked at him with an idiotic expression and said, "You brat, do you really not know anything about this school?"

Lai nodded, indicating that he really didn't know.

I don't even spend much time with Qiong, so how could I possibly know about trivial matters?

"Hahaha..." Dujiang Qingling laughed loudly, looking at the boy on the opposite sofa with a curious gaze.

"What's so funny? Of course you should ask if you don't understand," Lai muttered to himself.

Du Jiang Qingling laughed for two minutes before stopping, and casually touched her sparse hair, as if afraid that she had laughed so hard that she would lose all her hair.

"Cough cough cough..." Du Jiang Qingling coughed a few times, returned to his original appearance, and said sternly, "Alright, I'll give you a little explanation now."
