Survival in the Class: I'm the Only Boy on the Bus

12:45 PM.

Jiang Chen sat in the driver's seat, looking at the fork in the road in front of him.

The cat maid version of Haki is missing...

Now appearing is Haki-Zhu in his battle form, with short pink hair, a sleeveless pink shirt on top, and hot pants and long black stockings on the bottom.

She was sitting in the passenger seat, with her legs crossed.

The soles of her bare feet, clad in black stockings, were facing Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen could easily spot the pinkish tinge beneath the black with a quick glance...

For some reason, seeing this scene of food-grade quality, Jiang Chen felt an urge to give Lu Wanzhou the final act of his Dual Cultivation Sacred Body technique...

At this moment, Lu Wanzhou was no longer the clingy girl she was when talking to Xiao Chen, and she reverted to being the protective and domineering older sister she always was.

However... a blush still lingered on her face, as if Jiang Chen had lightly drawn a stroke of pink paint under her almond-shaped eyes and in the center of her nose.

After all, it was a three-hour conversation...

It's normal that some people haven't recovered yet...

Jiang Chen looked away and focused his attention on the road.

He looked at the fork in the road on the right, and his eyes lit up.

This time the situation is different.

On the left is the familiar fork in the road, and in the middle is the main road that won't lead to the instance.

At the fork in the road to the right, there was a wooden road sign on the side of the road.

The road sign had these words painted in red, and they were written vertically:

[The City That Ceased War] (This was crossed out with red paint)

【White Dove City】

The next moment, a system notification sounded in the minds of everyone on the bus:

[Team 43999 has detected a dungeon where an S-rank hidden quest can be completed. The details of the S-rank hidden quest have been updated.]

[S-Rank Hidden Quest: The Light Boat Has Passed, White Doves Fly]

[Mission Description: The city of peace has been rebuilt and, with the help of the Huaxia Kingdom, has developed into White Dove City.]

[Mission Objective: Enter the city of White Doves, inhabited by countless white doves, find Azar and the children, learn their story of rebuilding the city of peace, and offer them an olive branch and sing "Amani" again amidst the fluttering white doves.]

[Reward for successful mission: S-rank treasure chest]

[Punishment for mission failure: None]

Aside from Wang Wushuang, who was unaware of the situation, the girls all stared wide-eyed at the wooden sign at the right fork in the road after hearing the system notification, their faces showing surprise and relief.

"White Dove City... Hazard and his men... they really did it?!"

"So, will we still be able to see Hazard and the others?"

"That should be it. This S-rank hidden mission even asked us to offer them an olive branch and sing 'Amani,' which means they're still alive, and we can still see them!"

"I just don't know... how much suffering those children endured to get the white doves to land in the city of peace..."

Although the girls felt sorry for Hazard and his teammates, the atmosphere on the bus was mainly cheerful.

After all, everyone was looking forward to seeing Hazard and the others again.

Bai Nuonuo lifted Mr. Bear high and jumped off the seat, then ran towards Brother Jiang Chen.

She stood right next to Jiang Chen, her ahoge (a stray hair on her head) standing straight up, her eyes shining like two stars:

"Brother Jiang Chen~! Can we see Hazard and the others?!"

"Hazard and his team are amazing! They really managed to make white doves fly all over the city!"

"Nuonuo wants to see if those kids have grown even a little bit taller!"

"And there's more! Nuonuo saved up a lot of snacks for them!"

Bai Nuonuo threw a string of words at Jiang Chen.

It's clear that this little glutton is willing to share her treasured snacks with Hazard and the others, which shows that Bai Nuonuo really cares about them.

What a loving little glutton!

Jiang Chen gently rubbed her soft, white head, accidentally pressing down all the little hairs on her head...

Bai Nuonuo pouted her little mouth, hugged a teddy bear in her left hand, and covered her ahoge (cowlick) with her right hand as she backed away:

"Brother Jiang Chen, you flattened Nuonuo's little tuft of hair!"

Bai Nuonuo kept backing up until she came to Lu Wanzhou, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

Lu Wanzhou smiled and helped Bai Nuonuo straighten her signature ahoge (cowlick).

Bai Nuonuo turned her head and smiled at Lu Wanzhou:

"Thank you, Sister Wanzhou!"

Lu Wanzhou's eyes darted around, and she leaned close to Bai Nuonuo's ear, pointing at Jiang Chen and saying:

"Nuonuo, Jiang Chen is so naughty! From now on, don't increase your stats with Jiang Chen anymore, let me suffer the pain of increasing your stats for you!"

As Lu Wanzhou spoke, she patted the front of her body.

Although it lacks the charisma of Wen Ruyan, it boasts an ultra-realistic physics engine.

Jiang Chen immediately activated auto-aiming.

He gently clenched his hands, a feeling of emotion welling up inside him:

I have to say, pink really makes you look...

After hearing Lu Wanzhou's words, Bai Nuonuo shook her head vigorously, hugging the teddy bear tightly and saying earnestly:

"It's okay, Sister Wanzhou. Nuonuo doesn't find it bitter at all; Nuonuo likes it very much!"

"Jiang Chen is amazing!"

As Bai Nuonuo spoke, she stretched out her hands, gesturing a large area...

Jiang Chen sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation...

Nuonuo... can you say something like this in front of so many of your girlfriends?

Lan Xingyao immediately smelled Se Se's scent, and she immediately spoke:

"Wow! Nuonuo said the sports committee member is amazing!"

"I think there's nothing more to say, let's just call the sports committee!"

"Then I have a question: Is it possible that the 'electricity' in the Sports Commission is also Luo Li?"

"Because the electricity only takes a few minutes to travel from the power plant to the Electricity Sports Commission, isn't that Luo Li Electricity?!"

"So, wouldn't it make the sports committee member even happier if we used a power source to electrify them?"

The girls all looked completely bewildered.

"Alas... Destroy it!"

"I agree to the Trisolaran invasion of Earth..."

"The future of humanity is nowhere in sight..."

Lan Xingwan didn't say a word because she wasn't there; she was in the bathroom...

Wang Wushuang, who was helping Wen Ruyan organize lunch, blushed instantly after hearing Lan Xingyao's words.

After all that Lan Xingyao said, all she heard was, "The sports committee member is amazing..."

Remembering how Brother Chen suddenly gave Senior Lu Wanzhou a 180-point boost to her Freedom attribute, her face turned even redder. She even lowered her head, her toes digging into the ground inside her large shoes...

Wang Wushuang shook her head, forcibly suppressing her thoughts of being led astray by Lan Xingyao for the time being, before she became curious about the system's prompt.

After arranging a bottle of water and a pack of compressed biscuits, Wang Wushuang looked up at Teacher Wen:

"Teacher, what is this S-rank hidden quest?"

Wang Wushuang was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected there to be a hidden mission.

She had only learned about the mission from the public chat channel before.

However, most of the other players received D-level to B-level missions.

This was the first time she had ever seen an S-rank hidden mission.

And this task doesn't seem too difficult to complete...

Wen Ruyan's lips curled up slightly. The thought that Azar's group of children had really made white doves fly in the city of peace made her feel sincerely gratified.

She briefly explained to Wang Wushuang the situation of Azar and his group, as well as how she received this S-level hidden mission.

Upon hearing this, Wang Wushuang immediately covered her mouth with both hands, her wide eyes instantly turning red, and her black pupils trembling in their sockets.

She knows best what it's like to be displaced and hungry.

She simply couldn't imagine how a group of children, whose lives were hanging by a thread, could survive amidst the ruins filled with gunfire and zombies.

How could the ruins ravaged by gunfire be transformed into a home where white doves could alight?

Jiang Chen only heard Lan Xingyao's flirtatious remarks, but not Lan Xingwan's attempts to stop her, so he understood that Lan Xingwan had gone to the bathroom again...

no???

Didn't I just earn 120 free attribute points for you two sisters this morning?

It's only been half a day, right?

Why is it starting again?

However... he also felt that he really deserved to be electrocuted...

And it was a really strong electric shock...

Who told him to have been with Bai Nuonuo more than once...

The girls don't know this yet...

Jiang Chen chuckled self-deprecatingly, looked at the two forks in the road and muttered to himself before activating [Full Map Reveal]:

"Black Sheep Wall"

The next moment, the instance information on both the left and right sides popped up.
