The azure eyes spun around, and after a moment of contemplation, a very solemn expression appeared on her face, and she nodded solemnly to him.
"...I understand, sensei. I'll print out the reimbursement form right now. Please fill it out and submit it to Ogiki Aoi, the head of the Federal Student Union's finance office."
"That way, the 450,000 federal coins we get from the reimbursement can all be used to buy strawberry cakes!"
"Hey! Alona, the 450,000 federal coins I reimbursed are my little treasury for emergencies. I'm not going to give it to you so easily to buy snacks!!!"
Faced with Alona's nonsense, Lin Qiusheng argued with her and stepped into the closed elevator to the first floor of the mall with Hoshino Takanashi.
"In order for me to survive in this academy city of Kivotos after Rin-chan fires me, it's necessary to keep some money."
"Okay, okay, sensei, that kind of thing won't happen." Hoshino Kotori smiled and gently patted Lin Qiusheng's back, saying soothingly:
"If that's going to happen, Sensei should come to Abydos College. Abydos College always welcomes sensei."
"Xing, Xingye, that's such a manly thing to say!!! If I were a woman, I would definitely fall in love with you the moment I got there!"
When Lin Qiusheng looked at Xiao Niaoyou Xingye with eyes full of admiration, she immediately said:
"Sensei, who was it you said was Aoi?"
"Ah, you mean Shan Xikui? She's the head of the finance office of the Federation Student Union. Since I usually spend money too lavishly, Rin-chan couldn't stand it, so she asked her to manage Xia Lai's financial funds."
"I see. It seems like it's not easy for you, too, Sensei."
"Drip! Drop! Drop! Drop! Drop!"
As the elevator arrived at the destination floor prompt sound, Yuan Xiaoyue slowly opened the tightly closed door. Lin Qiusheng walked behind Kotori Yu Hoshino and walked out of the elevator with her.
Because the escalator is located near the entrance of the entire mall, and the enclosed elevator is at the end of the entire mall.
This design seems to be intended to divert incoming guests to areas with less traffic.
What appeared in front of Lin Qiusheng were closed shops. Although there were not many people at the entrance, they were still standing at the door of the shop, waiting for customers to come.
"Speaking of which, I haven't told Yuuka yet about Aoi being in charge of Xia Lai's financial budget."
"I always feel that if I tell her, something bad will happen..."
When Lin Qiusheng and Hoshino Takanashi followed the crowd out of the enclosed elevator, his eyes drifted towards a somewhat old shop on the right as if attracted by a magnet.
That's right, there is a toy store there that is as inconspicuous as a plain-looking fly-infested restaurant in a busy street.
Lin Qiusheng's brain was sending him signals frantically, that there must be goods hidden there that were unavailable on the market, and maybe there would be unexpected gains!
"Sensei, what's wrong with you?"
"Ah, Hoshino-san, don't worry. The man's expression means he'll definitely be scolded by Yuuka-kun at the seminar later."
Alona glanced at Lin Qiusheng and sneered at the empty strawberry cake packaging in his hand. She folded it neatly with a look of satisfaction and then threw it into the air.
The rustling packaging bag turned into a blue light and disappeared around her.
"Actually, I've wanted to ask a question for a long time."
"What? If it's a strawberry cake, well, I'll give you two, or one is fine too!" Alona folded her arms in front of her chest, turned sideways, and looked at Lin Qiusheng suspiciously.
"Only one? I just bought so many..." Lin Qiusheng looked at Arona, who was somewhat protective of her food, with his shoulders slumped in disappointment. Then, he shook his head left and right as if he was thinking about something.
"No, that's not right! That's not what I want to ask."
"Alona, I remember you said before that you can't touch objects in the real world directly, but you can touch me and touch what I touch."
"What's the principle behind this?"
"Hmm..." Alona tilted her head and thought for a moment, then smiled indifferently.
"I don't know, since the president of the Federation Student Union suddenly disappeared from Kivotos before it seemed like the Box of Shitin was even finished."
"So, I'm very familiar with the specific situation. Aside from assisting you in completing Xia Lai's mission, I don't know anything else about the Shiting Box's database."
"Ah! That's right. I still remember strawberry milk and strawberry cake!"
"...I understand. Don't mention the word strawberry milk anymore. I've heard enough of it today." Lin Qiusheng sighed helplessly.
Alona's azure figure flashed quickly like a snowflake screen. When her figure solidified again, she had a blueberry pineapple bun and strawberry yogurt in her hands.
She excitedly tore open the plastic wrapping of the pineapple bun, put a straw into the yogurt, and looked happy again.
"Hey, you're still eating."
"...Well, of course, it's all because you gave all the food in the Shiting Box to the students of Trinity College's Arianus branch, which is why I've been hungry for so long."
"Uh, sorry. No! Why should I apologize to you when I paid for the food?"
In the end, the quarrel with Alona ended with Lin Qiusheng's speechless gaze. At this moment, his peripheral vision noticed something he had been thinking about day and night.
"Oh my! This, this is..."
When Lin Qiusheng and Kotori Hoshino were about to leave the mall towards the main door on the first floor, they had just stepped a dozen steps into a store.
Lin Qiusheng noticed the model assembled behind the glass window for display.
"It's actually the HG 1/144 Mobile Suit Gungen 35th Anniversary Limited Edition Glossy Clear Color!"
"This product, which has disappeared from the market, is now available here! And it only costs 150,000 Federation Coins! What a bargain!!!"
He lay on the transparent glass, his eyes wide open, staring at the model in front of him like a treasure, as if he couldn't wait to take it away.
"Okay! Let's buy it!"
But when Lin Qiusheng stood up excitedly and was about to rush into the toy store selling models, and stretched out his right hand to pay for his wallet, he noticed something unusual.
That’s right, the funds that originally served as a small treasury in the wallet have disappeared without a trace, leaving only an empty wallet that is as empty as a folded piece of white paper.
"What's going on? Where's my money? Where's my money!?"
"Woooa! Calm down, sensei. The money in your wallet was just spent on supplies."
Hoshino Kotori quickly took Lin Qiusheng's right arm and said soothingly.
Lin Qiusheng was like a zombie. He swayed and collapsed to the ground, his eyes dull and full of longing as he looked at the model inside the glass window that was as bright as the sun.
"My HG 1/144 Mobile Suit Gungen 35th Anniversary Limited Edition Glossy Clear Color, how could this happen..."
"Okay, sensei, don't be so sad. Uncle has some money here. You can use it first."
As she spoke, Hoshino Takanashi took out a wallet with a blue whale patch from the pocket of her pleated skirt, pulled out a dozen 10,000 federal currency notes from it, and handed them to Lin Qiusheng.
"Uncle, I don't have anything to spend money on. You can pay me back anytime."
"Xing, Xingye..."
Lin Qiusheng stretched out his right hand, looked at the gentle smile of Takanashi Hoshino, then looked at the HG 1/144 Mobile Suit Gungen 35th Anniversary Limited Edition in the glass window beside him. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head heavily.
"Hoshino, I can't use your money after all...Okay! Whether you have to kneel down to Rin-chan or do anything else, I'll advance next month's salary!!!"
"Eh? Wait, sensei..."
Before Lin Qiusheng could take a step forward and rush towards the road ahead to leave the mall.
Three figures appeared one after another on the road ahead. Sand Wolf Baizi, Okusora Ayane, and Izayoi Nomiya, who were originally going shopping, appeared in front of Lin Qiusheng.
"Hey, sensei, Hoshino-senpai, long time no see."
"Shiroko, Ayane, Nomiya...why are you here..."
Lin Qiusheng looked up and found that Okusora Ayane and Izayoi Nomiya were breathing rapidly, and their chests were heaving violently.
"Haa...haa, sensei, good evening. Shiroko suddenly said he smelled you and Hoshino-senpai, so we hurried over."
"That's it."
Lin Qiusheng looked at the three girls in front of him in a daze. They were wearing the iconic uniform of Abydos Academy and carrying shopping bags of various sizes. It was obvious that they had just finished shopping like himself.
Sand Wolf Baizi came up to him expressionlessly, the tip of her nose slightly raised, the gray-white ears on top of her head tilted back like airplane wings, and she frowned slightly.
"Sensei, your body has the scent of Senior Hoshino."
"Eh? Ah! Just now, because there were a lot of people in the mall, I signed a contract with her to avoid getting separated."
"...Is that so? Hoshino-senpai."
For some reason, Sand Wolf Baizi turned his head with a somewhat resentful look and looked at the bird Xingye behind him.
"Yeah, it's almost like this~"
Just as the atmosphere was about to become weird, Ayane Okusora looked at the wallet and banknotes in Hoshino Takanashi's hand and quickly took over the topic.
"Um, sensei, what happened to you? Do you need our help?"
"No, Ayane, I'm just paying the price for what I did in the past. I'm sorry for making you worry."
"Sensei means that I just bought too many things at the mall, so I don't have enough money to buy what I want."
"Even though the uncle wanted to help sensei, he refused."
For some reason, Hoshino Takanashi acted as an interpreter, and together with Shiroko Sand Wolf and Ayane Okusora, they gathered outside the glass window, looking at the purple model inside that was half an arm's height.
"Yeah...I get it, sensei."
Sand Wolf Baizi stared at the model inside the window. After a moment, he walked up to Lin Qiusheng, patted his arm gently, and took out a fluffy blue hood from his arms.
"Sensei, please leave it to me. I will ask the clerk here to give it to you willingly."
"Wait, wait, Baizi, you can't do this, wow! Take off the hood and take out your guns!" Ayane Okuma hurriedly surrounded Sand Wolf Baizi.
After pondering for a moment, Izayoimiya smiled gently and placed the shopping bags of various sizes marked with various merchant logos in her hands at the feet of Takanashi Hoshino.
Under the puzzled gazes of the crowd, he walked into the store.
"Jingle Bell!!!"
"Welcome! Please feel free to shop for anything you need in the store. If you need anything else, please call me."
The salesperson at the innermost part of the store yawned in boredom, staring at the TV beside him, immersed in the ever-changing images.
"Excuse me, could you please make the price of that model a little cheaper?"
As she spoke, Izayoi Nomiya pointed to the purple shining model on her left hand near the shop entrance with a smile on her face.
Millennium Technology Academy: Plans after Chapter 108
"what?"
"Can the price of this model be cheaper?"
In the deserted toy model store, the salesperson stood there in shock, looking at the smiling girl in front of him, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
"Um, Mr. Guest, if you continue like this..."
Before it could utter the words it wanted to drive away, the figure of the extremely familiar girl in front of it perfectly overlapped with the figure in its memory.
"That hair color! Those eyes... You are, the president's daughter!"
"Da da da da da da!"
When the salesperson in the mall remembered who the girl in front of him was, he only felt that the circuits distributed in his head were like short-circuited wires, and his intermittent and intertwined consciousness was transmitted.
It immediately grabbed the calculator on the counter next to its left hand and kept pressing the raised buttons on it. Then it leaned forward respectfully, nodded slightly and placed the numbers on the calculator in front of the girl.
"Well, Miss...how about this?"
The salesperson at the mall raised her eyes nervously and glanced at Izayoi Yonomiya, only to find that she was still standing there, with her hands clasped in front of her, smiling loudly and saying:
“A little cheaper~”
"Da, da, da, creak!"
When Izayoi Nomiya walked out of the model shop calmly, everyone immediately surrounded her.
"Sensei, that's great! The clerk here said he can sell us this toy for 10,000 Federation Coins."
"Really?"
"What, what did you do?" Lin Qiusheng's eyes widened as he looked at Izayoi Yonomiya, then at the salesperson in the glass window who anxiously took the model away and then neatly packed it into a gift box.
"Sensei, actually, this store, this mall is a subsidiary of our family."
"Is this so..."
Amidst the silent sigh, for some reason, Izayoi Nomiya's originally not very tall figure now seemed as huge as Mount Tai.
“Ding-dong!!!”
Accompanied by the pleasant and crisp sound of a bell, the salesperson from the model shop rushed out of the store in a hurry, as if she was afraid that Izayoi Yonomiya would disappear before her eyes the next moment.
