"It doesn't matter, no one will know." Black Cat's words were very coherent at this time, completely unlike the confused look he had when they first met.
"But if I leave, I will become as tattered as those people, right?" Li Xuan asked worriedly.
"It's okay, just hold Black Cat's hand. It's safe around Black Cat." Black Cat said, handing a slender hand with black nail polish to Li Xuan.
"Okay! I'll do it!" Li Xuan held Black Cat's hand and walked towards the middle-aged woman pretending to be a little trembling.
"What are you doing? Don't come over here! If you dare to hurt me, you will all go to hell!" The middle-aged woman was so scared that her whole body collapsed, but she still kept muttering curses.
"Whether you will go to heaven or hell is Buddha's business. My mission is to send you to see Buddha." Li Xuan walked forward with a sneer and said.
"Great Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering! Buddha! Arhat! Please come and save me! I usually donate so many incense and release so many lives! You...you can't take the money and not do the job!!!" The woman sensed a chill from Li Xuan's smile, and she was so scared that tears streamed down her face. She hurriedly clasped her hands together and began to mutter.
"Black Cat, can you take me to the lake? I have an interesting idea." Li Xuan looked at the woman's funny appearance and suddenly turned around and asked.
"Okay, but you can't leave Black Cat at all! And you have to hold his hand at all times." Black Cat reminded.
"No problem." Li Xuan nodded, stripped off the woman's coat and tied her up, dragged her with one hand and led the black cat with the other to the place where he had fished before.
The night was dim, and the black cat's awakening made it even darker. Li Xuan took out a strong flashlight for fishing and shone it on the lake, where a sea of dead fish floated.
"Oh! All the fish are dead!" said the black cat in surprise.
Li Xuan looked at the dead fish floating on the lake and couldn't help but get angry. As a fisherman, he often couldn't catch a single fish after working all day, but now there was such a large area of dead fish on the lake! What a waste! What a waste!
Li Xuan angrily grabbed the middle-aged woman, twisted her head and forced her to look at the lake:
"Open your eyes and look! Lao Deng! All those fish are dead, it's your fault! I don't know if releasing animals has merit or not, but the way you released them has absolutely no merit at all! And you will even get a deduction!"
"How could it be? How could it be? You must have put poison bait when you were fishing! How could I kill the fish?!" The middle-aged woman was shaking with fear, but she still put all the blame on Li Xuan.
"Bah! Who the hell uses poison bait when fishing? Fish won't eat it! I told you: these are sea fish, they can't survive in the lake! You released them without knowing it, I think you should be punished!" Li Xuan scolded.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could a fish die in the water? You are lying! You must be lying! Even if I made a mistake, it was out of kindness! I definitely didn't kill it!" the middle-aged woman shouted in a shrill voice.
"Brother, don't waste time. I have to go back to find my mother." The black cat said, covering his ears.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Li Xuan said, first grabbing a lump of dirt and stuffing it into the woman's mouth, then moving a stone of appropriate weight and putting it into the woman's clothes, and finally tying the clothes firmly to her feet.
"Old witch, I'm going to let you go now. I don't know if you can survive in the water, but I definitely have good intentions and I'm definitely not trying to harm you~" After Li Xuan finished speaking, he kicked the middle-aged woman into the lake.
With a burst of bubbling, the woman quickly sank.
"Congratulations!" Li Xuan imitated the woman and put his hands together.
"Gulp gulp~~~" The black cat expressionlessly imitated the sound of a woman drowning, as if she was indifferent to death. At the same time, the black cat also lifted the awakening transformation and returned to the lazy appearance of wearing cat pajamas.
Li Xuan felt that his mood was also good. He picked up the fishing bucket and prepared to leave, but suddenly heard a familiar voice from a distance:
"Black Cat! Where are you? Stop playing hide-and-seek! I can sense your magic! If you don't come back, Filia will be angry! You won't be able to play the new song!"
Li Xuan thought about it and quickly realized that this was the little gangster who stabbed him that day. He wondered if she would remember his face. It would be terrible if she found out.
"Black Cat, your companions seem to be looking for you, go back with them quickly! Brother wants to go home to eat fish~" Li Xuan hurriedly coaxed Black Cat.
"Well! Take care, brother. Although you will forget it soon, I am really happy today!" said the black cat, jumping towards the direction of the voice.
Looking at the back of Black Cat leaving, Li Xuan let out a long sigh. This contact was indeed a bit unexpected. He failed to kidnap the band members as he wished, but it was not a complete failure. At least he saw Black Cat's awakening ability. Although he didn't know the principle, at least he could be prepared.
And most importantly: when the black cat left, Li Xuan had quietly marked her with a hunting mark. Although he had opened the passage to the illusory evil land at the same time and prepared to escape, Yao did not seem to notice anything.
It seems that even with her perception ability, she cannot detect the marking function of the hunting radar. It is worthy of being a basic skill at the beginning of the system. It is really simple and practical.
Li Xuan secretly rejoiced in his heart.
Chapter 106 Food and Dating
The next morning, Li Xuan came to the gate of Qinghe University with a fishing bucket. In order to ensure the freshness of the mackerel, he also stuffed a lot of ice bags into the bucket for preservation.
This is Li Xuan's first time to Qinghe University. Although the name sounds ordinary, it is one of the top ten universities in the country. It is an ivory tower that many people come from thousands of miles away to study in, and it is also the peak of their ideal that many people can only dream of but cannot reach.
The architecture of Qinghe University is indeed worthy of its status in the education world. Looking around, each building is so unique and obviously carefully designed, giving people a very sacred feeling.
For a moment, Li Xuan regretted not dressing more formally.
But watching the sun gradually rise, he was too lazy to go back and change clothes. The weather was too hot, and he was unwilling to sacrifice comfort for the sake of face. Besides, he was just here to eat, not for a blind date.
Most areas of Qinghe University are open to the public, so Li Xuan came to the campus easily and stood under the shade of a tree to call Li Sijie.
The call was picked up as soon as it was dialed. Li Xuan asked, "Hello? I'm at the gate of your school now. This place is too big. Where can I find you?"
Li Sijie's voice, which she tried to suppress, soon came from the phone: "You really came to see me?"
"You're going to cook fish for me, aren't you? Of course I'll come to keep my appointment."
"Hey, I thought you must be too busy to get away. Anyway, I'm in class now and won't be out until around twelve o'clock. You can go to the second floor of the cafeteria of the fifth school and wait for me. If you're bored, you can just wander around."
"Well, if we wait too long, the fish will be stale..." Li Xuan looked at the time. It was only nine in the morning, so he came too early. He couldn't delay others' classes just for his own appetite, so he had to ask for directions all the way to the school cafeteria that Li Sijie mentioned.
The second floor of the cafeteria was bright and clean. As it was past lunchtime, there were very few students in the cafeteria. The service staff at the stalls were all sitting there concentrating on playing with their phones, and no one noticed Li Xuan's arrival.
The waiting time is always extremely boring. Li Xuan took out his mobile phone and asked if Lilika and her daughter were safe. After getting the answer that everything was fine and the ruthless blame from 8==D, he turned off the screen again.
Lilika obviously didn't know that Black Cat had been there, and thought that she had just left without saying goodbye afterwards. But it was okay this way. For a woman like her who valued dignity, being treated like that would probably be an extremely shameful experience.
After putting down his phone, Li Xuan looked out the window at the soft sunlight outside. Although the scenery from this position was beautiful, the quiet and peaceful atmosphere gave him an unreasonable sense of depression.
The two encounters made Li Xuan deeply realize the power of the A-level magical girl. Although the black cat had demonstrated her awakening ability in front of him and even clearly stated the safe range, he still had no confidence in cracking it.
Not to mention that Black Cat would definitely not hold back when facing monsters like she would towards humans. Even if she just turned on Awakening and stayed there, she would have no means to get close to them.
He desperately wanted to do something to change the situation, but there was nothing he could do. This anxiety struck Li Xuan's heart from time to time, making him lose interest in even admiring the female college students who passed by the window from time to time.
At this moment, something soft hit the back of his head. Although it was fierce, the softness like an airbag easily cushioned the force. The impact force was perfectly converted into deformation, causing Li Xuan's head to sink deeply into the soft flesh pad.
Before he could appreciate this excessive tenderness, Li Xuan felt the light in front of his eyes disappear: a pair of soft hands covered his eyes from behind, so that he could only see a little light through the gaps between their fingers.
"Guess who I am?" the man behind asked in a hoarse voice.
"First, rule out Li Sijie from the photography department." Li Xuan thought to himself, you have put those headlights on your head, if I still can't recognize her, I can just castrate myself and start practicing the Sunflower Manual.
So he held Li Sijie's wrist and turned around, but was immediately blinded by the throwing stone and deprived of the right to breathe.
"You're right. I'll reward you with a delicious meal~" Li Sijie said as she stepped back half a step to avoid creating a horrific campus breast murder case.
Li Xuan, who had regained his sight, looked up and down at Li Sijie who was on campus. Her style today was very different from the past:
She wore a loose T-shirt on her upper body. Perhaps because she was afraid of the heat, the hem was not folded into the skirt, but tied at the side of her abdomen, changing it into a short belly-exposing outfit;
She wore a blue floral skirt that was neither too long nor too short. Below the hem of the skirt, her round calves and white socks wrapped in sneakers were revealed. Her expression and clothing were in line with her student temperament.
"Don't you have classes? Why are you here now?" Li Xuan asked curiously after admiring Li Sijie's outfit today.
"I thought about it carefully, and you're right. Fish tastes better when it's fresh, so I slipped away quietly." Li Sijie said with a smile.
"Oh? A top student from Qinghe University would actually skip classes?"
"It's an elective course. I'm very familiar with the teacher, and the roll call has been taken anyway, so she will turn a blind eye if I sneak away. You're lucky. If it were a professional course, I wouldn't dare skip it. It would be terrible if I couldn't graduate." Li Sijie said, looking at the fishing bucket on the table.
"Isn't it awesome? I caught these sea fish in Qinghe Lake!" Li Xuan said proudly as he opened the fishing bucket.
"How come there are sea fish in the lake?" Li Sijie looked at the mackerel surrounded by ice packs and said to Li Xuan with a confused expression, as if Rei Ayanami was saying goodbye.
"Of course it was influenced by my natural fishing ability. It came from thousands of miles away in the sea and was caught by me." Li Xuan boasted.
"Only children would believe your lies - it's impossible that you bought it at the vegetable market? Looking at your smug expression, it doesn't seem like it." Li Sijie said doubtfully.
"Don't guess blindly, I'll tell you." Li Xuan said, leaning close to Li Sijie's ear and telling her what happened last night.
“Hahahahaha…this is so funny, I released it here and you caught it over there, I can imagine the expressions of those people when they found out.”
After hearing this, Li Sijie laughed so hard that she fell backwards. Her eyes formed a crescent moon and her long eyelashes fluttered, as if they had become crystal clear because of the tears from her laughter.
Li Xuan had never seen a girl who could smile so beautifully. He shared his joy with her, and her joy came back to him, sweeping away all the anxiety and depression he had just felt.
Chapter 107: Li Sijie's Loving Lunch
After laughing, Li Sijie reached out and picked up Li Xuan's fishing bucket: "You haven't eaten yet? Then this will be considered breakfast."
"You're going to do it here?"
"Yes, in order to earn money to buy socks for myself, I often work in the cafeteria, and I am very familiar with the chefs here. Please sit for a while, I will go and discuss it with them. Oh, and by the way: the WiFi password is the full spelling of 'Qinghe Xuewu'."
Li Sijie smiled, carried the fishing bucket and walked towards a stall, where she started chatting with the chef.
The chef nodded and let her in. Li Sijie put on an apron and a hair net and started to work. She would borrow some things from other stalls from time to time. I didn't know what kind of food she wanted to make, but from her movements, she seemed to be kneading dough - is it necessary to knead dough to make fish?
Li Xuan was getting more and more curious about what she was going to make for him. Time passed by little by little in such anticipation. Around eleven o'clock, there were already scattered students coming in to eat, and the chefs at various stalls were also busy.
Just when Li Xuan was about to go over to take a look, Li Sijie finally came out of the stall holding a tray.
"You must be starving. I didn't expect it would be late for lunch." Li Sijie put the food tray on the table, took off her hairnet, and wiped the sweat from her forehead with a tissue.
Li Xuan looked down and saw a plate of small and exquisite dumplings and a plate of fragrant braised Spanish mackerel on the plate, as well as a bowl of rice, a dish of side dishes and a glass of bubbling soda.
“Originally, dumplings should not be eaten with rice, but it would be a shame not to use the braised soup to soak the rice.” Li Sijie said as she sat down.
"For me, the soup and rice are enough, so there's no need to bother making another serving of dumplings." Li Xuan said as he picked up his chopsticks.
"Don't jump to conclusions. Try it first." Li Si said with a confident smile.
Seeing her mysterious look, Li Xuan picked up a dumpling curiously and put it in his mouth to chew. A strong and delicious flavor immediately spread in his mouth. The filling was soft, tender and delicate, which was almost incredible. People couldn't help but wonder what was inside.
Driven by curiosity, Li Xuan picked up another dumpling and bit off half of it, only to find that it was filled with green leeks and tender white fish meat.
"These are Spanish mackerel dumplings. They don't contain any MSG, and are full of the original freshness of the fish. It's hard to find them in Qinghe City, right?"
Seeing Li Xuan's surprised expression, Li Sijie showed a smug expression, and seemed to be secretly relieved, as if she was sighing that the two hours of hard work just now were not in vain.
"Delicious! So delicious! This trip was worth it!" Li Xuan threw four or five small dumplings into his mouth in one breath, and his cheeks bulged up from chewing them.
"Why is there only one pair of chopsticks? Aren't you going to eat?" Li Xuan took a sip of soda, and then began to taste the combination of braised fish fillets and rice.
"I've eaten this morning, so I'm not hungry now." Li Sijie shook her head.
"Then I won't be polite!" Li Xuan had a big appetite to begin with, and the dishes were also to his taste, so he didn't care about his eating manners and ate like the wind and clouds.
The braised fish was sweet but not greasy, and the dumplings were fresh but not fishy. The fillings seemed to have already been seasoned, so there was no need for dipping sauce. The saltiness of the two dishes was very much to Li Xuan's liking - in fact, his taste was heavier than that of most people, and I didn't know why Li Sijie could grasp it so well.
Li Sijie didn't say anything else. She just supported her chin with both hands and watched Li Xuan eat the delicious food she had carefully cooked until only the last dumpling was left.
"You must eat the last one. How can a chef not taste his own work?" Li Xuan said, pointing at the last dumpling with chopsticks.
"Actually, I tasted it when it came out of the pot, but since you said so, I'll eat another one." Li Sijie reached out to take Li Xuan's chopsticks, but Li Xuan did not let go.
"You don't give me chopsticks. Are you going to let me eat with my hands?" Li Sijie asked doubtfully.
"Open your mouth." Li Xuan said, picking up the dumpling and bringing it to her mouth.
"What era is it now? We are still playing this outdated feeding game." Li Sijie smiled, stretched out her tongue and rolled the dumpling into her mouth flexibly, then closed her mouth and slowly chewed it.
At this time, there were more people in the cafeteria, and Li Xuan's feeding action attracted some people's attention, but Li Sijie seemed to not care about such eyes at all.
"Let's go. I'll take you around the school." Li Sijie swallowed the food in her mouth, sent the plate to the recycling area, and then took Li Xuan's hand and said.
Li Xuan also had the same idea, so he followed her and strolled along the neat streets of Qinghe University. Along the way, Li Xuan felt countless eyes cast towards him, some with envy, some with jealousy, and some even with a bit of hatred.
"Are you famous in school? Why are they all looking at me like that?" Li Xuan asked curiously.
"I performed an escape magic trick at the freshman welcome party, and then a lot of boys came to me and confessed their love to me. I rejected them all properly, but I didn't expect they still wouldn't give up." Li Sijie said distressedly.
"No wonder they all looked at me like that...some of them looked like they wanted to kill me." Li Xuan laughed.
"Maybe it's because I've never had a boyfriend, so everyone thinks they have a chance. Maybe seeing us walking around in the school can make them a little more rational." Li Sijie said, holding Li Xuan's arm.
"Am I being used by you?"
"I made you such delicious food, shouldn't you be taken advantage of?"
"We should, we should, but the atmosphere is like this... let's go to a quieter place." Li Xuan looked at a boy with a painful expression on his face, hitting his head with a book, and couldn't help but make an awkward suggestion.
"That's exactly what I meant." Li Sijie nodded and took Li Xuan into a teaching building. After twists and turns, they arrived at a classroom full of photos.
"This is the photography department's classroom. There are no classes today, so no one will come. You must have come to see me for more than just a free meal, right? If you have anything to say, you can tell me now." Li Sijie closed the classroom door and turned to say to Li Xuan.
"I really can't hide it from you." Li Xuan smiled and stopped hiding it. Instead, he asked directly what he was thinking at the moment: "What color are your underwear today?"
"Purple, but I guess that's not what you really want to ask." Li Sijie said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll get this straight: You must have known about the Witch Band coming here, right?"
"Witch Band? Are they famous?" Li Sijie asked doubtfully.
"The Witch Band! They're the notorious mercenary group! Don't tell me your informant didn't even tell you this?" Li Xuan reminded.
"In order to avoid affecting my studies, I told the informant to stop contacting me after the summer vacation. As for the Witch Band you mentioned, I have indeed never heard of them." Li Sijie shook her head.
Seeing that she didn't look like she was playing dumb, Li Xuan had no choice but to explain: "In simple terms: the Witch Band is a mercenary group composed of four A-level magical girls, and the church intends to let them kill me."
