While one moment they're still fantasizing about the pure and beautiful nature of love, the next they've meticulously planned out their idyllic deaths and their afterlife...

It just looks a bit too bizarre no matter how you look at it.

If it weren't for the days and nights they spent together, he would have already figured out Hiyori's personality long ago.

He genuinely believed that she was a woman at heart, ready to pull out a knife and fix the ship at any moment.

Su Wei shook his head inwardly.

......

Unfortunately, Hiyori Shiina remained quite reserved.

Even though she had already subtly expressed her feelings to Su Wei during their conversation.

However, barring any unforeseen circumstances, given Hiyori's personality, she would never easily do anything that crosses the line.

Of course, all of this is based on the premise that—barring any unforeseen circumstances.

The two walked back to the student dormitory in silence, but without any awkwardness.

With a crisp "ding," the elevator came to a smooth stop on Su Wei's floor.

The metal elevator doors slid open slowly to both sides.

Shiina Hiyori took a deep breath, preparing to raise her hand, offer a serene smile, and say goodnight to Su Wei.

But in reality, her small, fair hand, which she had just raised halfway, stiffly and awkwardly withdrew back to her side.

This is because, at the moment the elevator doors open...

She encountered someone who was quite unexpected at this time and place.

Tianze Yixia was standing prettily in front of Suwei's door, carrying a brown paper bag in one hand.

Hearing the elevator, the red-haired girl turned around and smiled at Su Wei.

Immediately, she noticed Shiina Hiyori walking side by side with Su Wei in the elevator car.

Tianze Yixia was slightly taken aback at first, but instead of panicking, she curled her lips into a half-smile and spoke in a slightly mischievous tone:

"I never expected Hiyori-san to come back with her senior..."

She shook the paper bag in her hand, tilting her head to look at the two of them:

"It seems I've disturbed your time alone?"

"How about... I come back another time?"

Faced with Tianze Yixia's strong tea flavor, Su Wei rolled her eyes.

"okay."

"Those who have made even a little progress in cultivating 'qi' can recognize the aura of others while concealing their own."

"I don't believe you're more skilled than me in this area. You noticed Hiyori's presence before the elevator stopped, didn't you?"

Instead of being embarrassed when Su Wei exposed her, Tianze Yixia puffed out her cheeks slightly and complained with some distress:

"Well... what you said is indeed the truth, senior, but the truth is the most hurtful. Don't you know that?"

"Couldn't you just pretend you didn't know and guess that I've been following you so devotedly because I miss you so much?"

At this point, she seemed to recall some unpleasant past events, and rubbed her temples in frustration:

"Come to think of it, I did secretly spy on you for quite some time..."

"Sigh, who would have thought that dealing with someone like you, senior, doesn't require any complicated schemes at all? Just go for it without thinking! After all the suffering I endured in the shadows before, what was it all?!"

Su Wei couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth:

"That means you're a promising candidate who can endure hardship."

"Furthermore, isn't your statement even more subtle?"

"If it weren't for the fact that the school is now under the interference of the Black Ball, barely qualifying as a special exam middle ground, and the rules aren't as rigid as before... just based on your previous reckless probing, I think you're really going to suffer."

"Hehe~ I still prefer the world as it is now."

Tianze Yixia laughed without a care in the world.

After all, before the black ball arrived, as an orphan adopted and raised by the "White House," she came to this school with orders.

If she fails to complete the task of getting Kiyotaka Ayanokoji to drop out of school, and is deemed a "failure," she will likely be destined to be destroyed and abandoned.

And now.

As a regular participant in the Black Ball Exam, she carries the sword of Damocles over her head, constantly facing the terrifying future of world destruction and being devoured by monsters.

But this disaster is universal.

It is not a natural disaster targeting Tianze alone, but a natural disaster that everyone faces together.

In Tianze Yixia's view, no longer being controlled by others and being able to completely control her own destiny... there is absolutely no time in the world when she feels more at ease than now.

Su Wei looked at it and shook his head helplessly.

He turned to look at Shiina Hiyori, who had remained silent in the elevator, and comforted her:
