They are all still here.

It's just not in the lobby.

Shouldn't...

A thought suddenly popped into Aoko's mind as she recalled the so-called 'TV drama plot' that Kumanri Kinro had been nagging about all day, but she quickly dismissed it.

impossible.

We've only known each other for less than a day!

How can it be so fast?

Besides, that's a pearl—the Kuonji Pearl!

Just as it's hard for a normal person to imagine winter snow falling in the height of summer, it's also hard for Aoko to imagine that Yuzu would be moved.

However, once such a trend emerges, it is difficult to suppress.

Once such thoughts begin to emerge, they are hard to shake off.

What if?

just in case...

"You can use a little more force."

"Still no feeling?"

"Ah."

"So I used even more force?"

"it is good."

"..."

Oh God, what a terrible conversation!

Following their possible route, Qingzi arrived at a room deep inside the Western-style building. Before she could even knock, she heard this conversation coming from inside the tightly closed door.

The voices of a girl and a boy rang out one after another.

The content of her words, coupled with the slightly fluctuating yet seemingly unstable voice of Yuzhu, made it hard for Aoko not to have the wrong idea.

She silently withdrew her hand.

Silently...

"Oh, Miss Aoko is back? Then come in together!"

The boy's voice rang out.

Aoko's expression changed slightly, and instead of retreating, she took a step forward—a terrible scene flashed through her mind like an avalanche. She thought to herself, this foreign boy is too bold. He's already 'eaten' Youzhu, isn't that enough? He wants to drag her along too?

Is this the world of magicians? It's terrifying—

But before Aoko could even take a step, she heard a creak behind her as the door opened.

Driven by curiosity, she couldn't help but turn her head to look.

Then, under the glow of a ghostly blue phosphorescent light, intricate circular runes almost covered the entire room. At the very center of these runes, Kuonji Yuzu sat upright, her clothes neatly arranged, her short, jet-black hair flowing freely. Apart from her slightly pale complexion, she still looked exactly the same, exquisitely crafted like the most beautiful doll.

In front of him, Lu Kang stood to the side of the threshold. The young man from the foreign country, dressed in a black undershirt, was tall and handsome. He watched Qingzi's furtive steps as she stood up on tiptoe.

One can't help but laugh:

"So, you went and came back from being a thief?"

Qingzi: "..."

What have I been thinking about all day?!

...

"In the end, were you just researching magic tricks?"

A moment later, Qingzi, having figured out the truth, didn't know whether she should be disappointed or relieved—well, actually, she also somewhat wanted to see the 'winter snow melt'.

Thinking of this, Aoko glanced at Yuju, who was still sitting in the center of the magic circle, expressionless under the light of countless operating circuits. Her mysterious and quiet demeanor was even more sacred and aloof than usual, and she confirmed her thoughts!

But if that would involve risking my own life, I'd rather decline.

She let out a breath.

Looking at the girl's expression, which clearly revealed her thoughts, Lu Kang couldn't help but find it amusing.

Whether in simulations or in reality, after dealing with a large group of old monsters, Lu Kang always preferred the mentality of a true young man.

He nodded: "What else?"

"Exploring the mysterious and studying magic—this is the most basic task for a magician, my friend."

Half serious, half ambiguous.

This guy must have seen through my wild thoughts!

Aoko tried hard to keep her face straight, but she couldn't help but let the blush creep up her cheeks.

It's all that guy, Kumanori Kinroku's fault!

She resisted the urge to dig her toes into the floor and changed the subject: "So, what have you figured out?"

Nothing was discovered in the research, of course.

If magic were really that easy to study, there wouldn't be only five types today.

Lu Kang only used his own 'True Ether Magic System' as support, allowing Youzhu to try to fully activate her magical mystery system called 'Yumina'.

With the triple-cycle system he has now constructed, he can gain inspiration from every single complete spell that a bead can cast.

But in the end, they gained nothing.

After listening to the story, Aoko nodded slightly, feeling only...

In short, we managed to get away with it.

In short, it was just a misunderstanding...

"Let's call it a day then," Lu Kang said with a smile. "Oh, by the way, would you please trouble Miss Aozaki to help Miss Kuonji up?"

"Her posture hasn't changed for so long—I think it's not that she doesn't want to change, but that her legs have gone numb from sitting for so long."

Did you know that?

Kuonji Yuzu, who had remained motionless from the very beginning until now, had no expression on her face, only staring at Lu Kang with a cold gaze.

The girl, whose expression remained calm and composed, strongly suspected that this guy was doing it on purpose.

Aozaki Aoko blinked, looked at Lu Kang, and then at Youzhu.

"is that so?"

Although I am well aware of how absurd Arizuka's physical abilities are—she is so weak that she is far inferior to even an ordinary person.

But look at Youzhu's expressionless and motionless posture at this moment.

She couldn't tell at all that Yu-joo was in such a distressed state.

so.

"Watching the ice-cold girl's embarrassed yet forced-to-pretend-as-nonsense demeanor."

“It’s really interesting!”

Lu Kang spoke frankly.

Aoko remained silent.

Youzhu remained silent.

This guy is just awful!

Chapter 151 Luvist in the Textbook and the Foreign Student

Finally, with Aoko's help, Arisu managed to stand up steadily, her expression remaining unchanged throughout—but Aoko, who was standing close by, could feel the intense fluctuations in Arisu's emotions.

It's extremely rare... at least in Aoko's memory, it's extremely rare.

Aoko was also certain that this mysterious and powerful foreign boy, this foreign magician, truly had a wicked sense of humor.

That guy... seems to really enjoy 'teasing' Arisa?

Aoko fell into deep thought.

Then I was startled by a head that suddenly popped up next to me!

"Jinlu, do you walk without making a sound?"

"Isn't it because someone's 'standards' are too high?"

Kumanori Kinro answered with her height, her expressionless face.

Looking at Aozaki Aoko sitting in her classroom seat, she, as the student council secretary, could clearly sense the girl's unusual behavior over the past few days.

Aoko, who served as the student council president, was very domineering at school. In Yamato, a country that values ​​seniority, she dared to directly reprimand even third-year students despite being only a second-year student. Even though she herself didn't follow the rules much, she could still use her position as president to punish those who broke the rules with a clear conscience—she was a prime example of domineering and unreasonable behavior.

But in the past few days, she has rarely been seen wielding her authority to arrest people.

Even at internal student council meetings, they spoke much less.

This led Jin Lu, the secretary, to record many interesting remarks, and such an anomaly was quite obvious to her.

Are your standards too high?

Mentioning this, Qingzi paused slightly, as if she had suddenly thought of something: "Little Golden Deer, tell me, when someone likes to tease another person, is that considered respecting or looking down on them?"

“Just call me Jinlu, there’s no need for ‘Xiao’.” Jinlu snorted, but still answered, “As for the teasing, it depends on gender, age, and the degree of the teasing.”

These remarks left Qingzi stunned. She tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, somewhat bewildered. Knowing that she didn't understand, Jiuwanli Jinlu didn't beat around the bush and explained directly: "If they are all the same sex, then it proves that they are either enemies or close friends, most likely the latter."

"If it's someone of the opposite sex, and they're the same age, then it's highly likely that they have feelings for each other—and if the teasing is just some trivial little thing, then it's almost certainly 100% love!"

"In addition, analysis can also be done based on the reaction of the person being pranked..."

These theories sounded both unfamiliar and impressive to Qingzi, almost comparable to the basic magic knowledge that Youzhu had taught her. She thought to herself, "No wonder she is the student council secretary, a character who has 'read' all kinds of romance novels." She had been pondering Lu Kang's behavior towards Youzhu for the past few days, and at this moment she felt a sense of sudden enlightenment!

Yes, several days had passed since Lu Kang and Youzhu studied magic in the room. During these days, the boy from the foreign country had teased the expressionless girl more than once.

With words and actions.

They even designed all sorts of trivial 'traps'.

He also seemed to truly keep his word and enjoyed watching the various embarrassing situations of girls with no money, no job, and no income.

And Yu-chu is truly 'stubborn'.

Each time, he still tries his best to remain expressionless and pretend nothing is wrong.

However, based on Aoko's understanding and analysis, Yuzhu's emotional fluctuations in the past few days are several times greater than the sum of the previous few months!

and so.

"Does he like pearls?"

Following Jinlu's reasoning, Qingzi analyzed the past, but still felt that something was not quite right.

Looking at Lu Kang's seemingly effortless yet serious manner, she always felt that he was teasing a little girl... But aren't they the same age?

I don't understand.

"Are you analyzing your 'fairytale princess' and 'foreign prince'? Aoko."

Seeing that Aoko's facial expressions could almost be a whole play, with her playing dozens of roles at once, Kumanori Kinroku suddenly pulled Aoko out of her thoughts with a single sentence.

Aoko thought for a moment, since she had already said it before—she wouldn't hesitate to say it again.

The mystery and magic remain hidden.

It may look different, but the essence of the story remains the same.

After listening, Kumanri Jinlu remained silent for a moment.

Suddenly said:
