The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 283 In the Name of Youth (4)

Before Qian Xiaoyi finished eating, a large group of high school students gathered at the door to watch the fun. A celebrity from TV appeared in their school, which was a big event for these high school students whose daily lives were boring.

"It seems like he really is that psychic detective~"

"Eh? He actually came to our school? Is there some supernatural incident in the school that needs him to deal with?"

"Don't scare me, supernatural events or anything like that... Could it be that someone died?"

"Stop joking. If this is a supernatural event, he should have come here at night. Why would he be eating here leisurely?"

"That's right, so you're just here to visit? Do you want to go up and ask for an autograph or something?"

"The previous episode of "Horror Night GO" was so interesting. I really want to know the answer in advance..."

Qian Xiaoyi suddenly had the illusion that he had become a giant panda being watched by people. It seemed that these high school students had too little homework.

"Please go slowly!"

After paying the bill and wiping his mouth, Qian Xiaoyi said hello to Suzuki and then got up to leave. As soon as he walked out of the classroom, he saw a group of people outside looking at him eagerly.

A girl mustered up the courage to come forward and asked, "Um...Excuse me, are you the psychic detective Mr. Qian Xiaoyi?"

"Psychic Detective..." Qian Xiaoyi really didn't want this nickname. He hadn't even read two detective novels, so how could he be a detective? But there was nothing he could do. For the sake of publicity, Horror Night GO had completely tied him to this nickname.

"Yes, I am Qian Xiaoyi." So Qian Xiaoyi took off his baseball cap and agreed with a smile. Since he had been discovered anyway, he might as well leave a good impression on outsiders.

"Sure enough, it's exactly the same as on TV!" The girl's eyes lit up and she asked, "Can we take a photo together?"

Qian Xiaoyi smiled cheerfully: "Of course, let's not waste time, let's all come together."

He is now barely considered a public figure, and he still has to try his best to maintain his image in public.

Upon hearing this, a group of students excitedly gathered around Qian Xiaoyi, took a photo with him in the middle, and started asking questions at once.

Male student A: "Mr. Qian's Japanese is very good. By the way, you came to our school. Do you have any commission?"

Male student B: "Yeah, could it be a murder case in a locked room?"

Faced with these guys' imaginations, Qian Xiaoyi said helplessly: "If that kind of thing really happened, the person you saw would not be me, but the police. I was invited by a friend to visit."

Female student A: "I've always wanted to ask, are Suzuna-chan and Mr. Qian a couple?"

Qian Xiaoyi: "No, just a colleague."

Female student B: "Really? They've been live together before, and they've even appeared on the same show. They're obviously not just colleagues, right? Could it be a secret relationship?"

Qian Xiaoyi: "...What are you thinking about? That guy and I are not idols, why would we have to have an underground relationship?"

Female student C: "Mr. Detective, have you ever done divination for other girls in school? I think someone told me that you have a love divination business. Can you do a divination for me now?"

Male student A: "Love fortune-telling is so boring. It's rare that Mr. Qian is here, why don't you tell me about previous cases? You must have helped the police solve many difficult cases, right?" A group of people surrounded Qian Xiaoyi, and all kinds of strange questions came one after another. He was now helpless, and at this moment, his savior came.

"Ah, it's really Teacher Qian! Please make way." Kawasaki's voice came over.

"Oh! Kawasaki, you finally..." Qian Xiaoyi had just said halfway when he saw Kawasaki's current appearance.

This guy was wearing a wig with double braids on his head and a maid outfit. His bamboo-like legs were exposed, revealing his thick leg hair. It was as eye-catching as it could be.

Seeing Qian Xiaoyi's contemptuous look, Kawasaki sighed and said, "It's a maid cafe. All the boys and girls in our class have to dress like this..."

His eye-catching outfit had a certain repelling effect, and everyone made way for him.

"Is this guy Kawasaki from the Psychic Club?"

"I didn't expect he wasn't just bragging when he said he knew a psychic detective."

Kawasaki walked to Qian Xiaoyi with a smug look on his face and said loudly, "Teacher Qian, let's go this way. I'll take you to visit the school. There are many interesting activities in this cultural festival."

Qian Xiaoyi smiled at the others and said, "Sorry, sorry, let's talk about storytelling and divination next time. I'm leaving now."

Then he and Kawasaki left the crowd.

Although from time to time some people heard the news and came to watch Qian Xiaoyi, with Kawasaki's current appearance as a talisman, he was not surrounded by crowds like before.

"I'm finally saved." Qian Xiaoyi sighed, "I never thought I would be so popular. I couldn't even imagine it."

Kawasaki said: "What are you talking about? Teacher Qian, you are a superstar in our school. Everyone knows you."

"Ah? Why?" Qian Xiaoyi asked, "Are they all fans of Horror Night GO?"

Kawasaki said proudly, "You were already a celebrity in the school before this, Teacher Qian, have you forgotten? Many girls in this school have come to your office to ask you for divination. From that time on, everyone knew that there was a Chinese exorcist who could do divination in Roppongi, and the results of divination were very accurate. When you appeared on TV, Teacher Qian, you became even more famous."

"I see." Qian Xiaoyi nodded. It seemed that a few months ago, when the firm's business was not picking up, in order to earn some money for food, Suzuki did indeed bring a lot of female students to the firm for divination. He fooled a lot of people, but recently, as the number of clients increased, he did very little of this kind of divination business.

Kawasaki asked, "By the way, why did Teacher Qian take the time to come to school? Could it be that he has something to ask Inuyama?"

"Not really." Qian Xiaoyi smiled and said, "It's just that I've been too busy recently, so I took a break and visited the school. After all, there is no cultural festival in the school in China. I have heard of the cultural festival for a long time, but I have never seen it."

Kawasaki became excited: "That's great, if that's the case, let's go upstairs and challenge them! Let those guys who run the haunted house know what it means to be a professional!"

Qian Xiaoyi asked, "Let me go? Wouldn't that be a bit of a bully?"

Kawasaki: “I heard the prize is a free ticket for snacks from the stall outside.”

"Let's go and let these little brats see the cruelty of society." Qian Xiaoyi said seriously.

As the two were strolling around the teaching building with great interest, they did not notice that there was a gloomy gaze hiding in the corner behind them, watching them.
