"So that's how it is—" Lian felt a little emotional and smiled a little happily.

In Teacher Hanekawa's strange family, there are three sets of tableware and kitchen utensils, and the father, mother and she will prepare meals separately.

That twisted family relationship also gradually gave birth to monsters named Meimao and Koushu, who were born from Hanekawa Tsubasa.

Now that she has overcome those things, Hanekawa Tsubasa has become an outstanding independent adult.

The only thing left was the mottled hair that needed to be dyed black every day as a sign of accepting all of herself.

"Suddenly, the meaning of eating together like this has become heavy." Lian said softly.

Teacher Hanekawa tilted his head slightly at a subtle angle, "Is it troublesome to eat with me?"

"No, no, no, I'm not talking about this side—" Lian explained hurriedly.

"I'm just kidding." Teacher Hanekawa picked up the cup and took a sip of tea. "So, based on what Shijo-kun has learned in the past few days, the whole thing is related to the 'Snake Cutting Rope'?"

"At least it should be correct." Lian responded seriously, "Although the rumors are a bit too weird, such as making a wish to the snake god, or changing the other person's mind within two weeks and then promoting a romantic relationship... Is there really such a convenient weirdness?"

Teacher Hanekawa also expressed his agreement, "No matter how you look at it, this result is too optimistic, so much so that one has to wonder if something went wrong."

"And another thing is, this time the weirdness isn't some fake weirdness that's only for show." Lian put down her chopsticks and looked at the side dishes in the lunch box.

The "Snake Cutting Rope" that happened to Sengoku Nadeshiko was just a fake strangeness that would disappear in three days. The reason why it got worse was simply because she took the wrong way to break the curse, which made the fake become real to some extent.

"That's what Mr. Bei Mu Ni Zhou told you, right? Do you believe what the fraudster said?"

"If I went to find him and he told me something, I would be suspicious." Lian thought for a moment, "But since it was Ms. Woyan Izuko's errand, at least he wouldn't dare to lie, right?"

"That's right. Miss Woyan specifically asked Mr. Beimu to explain the situation. I guess she thinks highly of Lian's qualifications."

"I'm still a long way from that." Lian said modestly.

"After all, from this perspective, Shijo-kun is still just a novice." Teacher Hanekawa agreed with a smile, "Ah, by the way, how is Hachikuji-sister?"

"Of course, God is fine—" Lian sighed, "The only pity is that Kasumigaoka actually wasted such a good opportunity. What is she going to do with that half-weight body..."

"Are you worried?" Teacher Hanekawa blinked.

"Don't worry." Lian pursed her lips.

Chapter 55: "It Has Nothing to Do with Me" (2)

It’s not so much that he is worried, but rather that he has to care because he is also implicated.

After all, half of the weight still belongs to him.

Even though she was almost used to it, Lian still found it troublesome.

The school will hold a physical examination for the entire school next month, and we can bribe the health doctor to keep it secret.

If it can be solved earlier, there is no need to spend that money.

"So, after going to the Kitashiroji Shrine to confirm that the rumor had nothing to do with that place, Shijo-kun met the victim." Teacher Hanekawa continued, "It was Ogiso Setsuna from Class 3-A?"

"That should be it." Lian just briefly explained, "Because my mother was present, my mother and I interfered with each other's perception of the weirdness..."

"In a sense, it's really inconvenient." Teacher Hanekawa understood.

Lian nodded continuously, "So if that little Kiso hadn't passed by me, I wouldn't have known that she was haunted by something strange."

"So in order to confirm the facts, Shijo-kun followed Ogiso-san to the girls' restroom?"

"Teacher, your words are full of criminal connotations. Could you please change your words a little bit..."

Teacher Hanekawa smiled sweetly, "But it is also true that when he saw the other party leave, Shijo-kun followed him. Didn't he get suspected?"

"I said the agency called and I had to leave the table to answer it."

"Oh, being a celebrity is so convenient." Teacher Hanekawa praised Lian's handling of the matter. "Then at the sink at the door, did you see the cursed snake that attacked Ogiso-san?"

"Yes, this is the most puzzling part for me." Lian crossed his arms. "If someone cast the snake-cutting curse, then judging by the snake-shaped binding marks that have crawled onto Kogiso's calves, it should have happened several days ago."

"It's only up to the calf?" Teacher Hanekawa pinched his chin, obviously very worried.

In terms of the speed of the curse, it is relatively slow.

But this is no reason for optimism.

For a person possessed by the Snake Cutting Rope, lines will begin to spread from the toes upwards. When the lines spread to the face, the cursed snake will appear and devour the person whole.

"Considering that Ogiso may not have killed the snake to find a way to break the curse like Ms. Sengoku did, this situation may have lasted for at least a week." Lian lowered his eyebrows in thought, "Combined with the current rumors, the information related to time, that is to say, in another week, Ogiso Setsuna may be devoured by the cursed snake."

The so-called snake god can bless love, but it is nothing more than a rumor. As for the original source, it is very difficult to investigate it now.

In addition, the rumor also mentioned the snake god and the cursed snake did appear, so the rumor is likely not completely fictional.

Two weeks is not a time limit for a change of heart, but a time limit for the victim to be devoured.

"Two weeks is just a conservative estimate. The reason why Sengoku's condition spread rapidly to her neck in just a few days was because she tried to kill the snake to remove the curse, but it caused the condition to worsen." Hanekawa reminded Lian.

"Teacher Hanekawa, are you trying to say that it might be shorter than expected, and it won't take two weeks?"

"Well... because Shijo-kun saw the 'Cursed Snake', didn't he?"

Hanekawa Tsubasa grasped a very crucial point.

On Saturday night, outside the bathroom of the hotel, there really was a cursed snake trying to attack Setsuna Ogiso.

The reason why Lian appeared there at that time was simply because she smelled a strange scent emanating from Ogiso Setsuna.

So he left the table on the pretext of something and carefully went in the direction where Xuecai went, and just in time he saw the cursed snake appear.

Taking advantage of the fact that Setsuna closed her eyes out of fear, Lian took out the magic sword Heart Crossing from her body, killed the snake, and then quickly put the sword away.

The cursed snake was not an ordinary snake. Having its head stepped on did not mean it would die immediately. Lian had no choice but to step on it again to completely defeat the cursed snake.

But that's the problem.

Question: Since Setsuna Ogiso has already been possessed by a cursed snake and has become a victim of a weirdness, why does the cursed snake attack her again?

Answer: Of course the caster is still using the "Snake Cuts the Rope" curse.

Thinking of this, Lian finally caught up with Hanekawa Tsubasa's train of thought.

"I understand……"

Generally speaking, weirdness cannot be manipulated or driven by just anyone.

It would be impossible to do this without professional knowledge and training.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a thing as weird experts.

But this does not mean that it completely rules out the possibility that ordinary people can drive weirdness.

There may be many students who try to drive the "Snake Cutting Rope", but most of them just treat it as a joke and try it out, without taking it seriously at all.

However, there was one or several people who successfully used the "Snake Cutting Rope".

Because the effect of the snake cutting the rope was too slow, the person who cast the spell became impatient and repeated the spell in order to speed up the effect.

At this moment, Lian began to feel creepy.

Even as the son of a vampire who was above many monsters, he couldn't help but fear the viciousness of people.

Who on earth could not even wait two weeks and wanted to kill Setsuna Ogiso?

"Who did that girl offend?" Lian murmured.

"Maybe it's not an offense." Hanekawa Tsubasa gently called Lian back to her senses, "Have you forgotten what the rumor was about?"

"No, 'make a wish to the snake god and your love will come true within two weeks'..."

After repeating the content of the rumor, Lian was stunned.

"That's right... It's not because I hate Setsuna Ogisona, but because I like Setsuna Ogisona..."

Only at this moment did he finally fully understand what Beimunizhou said.

"Love is something more terrible than hate."

Beimunizhou was only sent by Woyan Izu Lake to state that he had nothing to do with the matter. Regardless of his intentions, he did leave an extra hint for Lian.

This time the weirdness was not used out of emotions such as resentment or jealousy.

It's just a simple feeling of "liking" this.

It's not even love, it's just a one-sided desire for possession.

From the root, there is nothing negative at all.

But it is also completely distorted.

"After all, high school students are at an age where they tend to focus on love affairs." Teacher Hanekawa sighed deeply, and then said to Lian, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's have lunch quickly. The teacher still has work to do, so I have to go back to the office early."

"Well, I see."

As he raised his chopsticks, he realized that Mr. Hanekawa had not asked him to solve the problem.

Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anyway.

Lian said silently in his heart.

Chapter 56: Great! I have come to understand everything (1)

So, after school, Ren decided to go to the second music room to see how Touma and Kazusa were practicing.

After all, it was a task entrusted to him by Teacher Hanekawa, so he dared not be careless at all.

He also had a concert to give during the Golden Week, and even though he knew the repertoire by heart, it was impossible for Lian to go on stage and perform without any practice.

That would be a shame to the audience who bought tickets to listen to his performance.

Calculating the less than ten days left in April before the Golden Week holiday, he walked to the door leading to the second music room.

"Hey, Four--"

Ren, who was stopped by someone, turned around and saw Sawamura Spencer Eriri.

"Oh, Sawamura, what's wrong?"

Seeing Eriri alone, Ren actually felt subconsciously strange.

"What else can I do? Shizhu has something to do tonight, so I'll come over to help him give you the stuff." Ying Lili held up the paper bag in her hand, "Isn't this the collector's edition you've always wanted?"

"Oh, I was worried about the shortage before." Lian happily took the box. "It's really not easy. You actually do home delivery. Are you a witch, Sawamura?"

"...Now this behavior is neither a stay-at-home nor urgent nor convenient. Besides, I'm not a witch." Eriri crossed her arms, speechless.

"That's true." Lian lowered her head to check the contents of the bag and asked casually, "Why isn't that guy with you?"

"You mean him? He has something to do, so he went back to his villa first."

"What's wrong?" Lian raised his head suddenly. "What happened?"

"What could be going on? Someone is going to visit the villa tonight, and he will be attending as a representative of the Shinomiya family with Sister Kaguya." Eriridan closed her eyes and scratched her hair nonchalantly, without any ladylike temperament. "My family sometimes receives important guests, so I know everything very well."

"So it's over there..." Lian breathed a sigh of relief.

This reaction did not escape Eriri's eyes. She put down her hand and said, "What's wrong? You don't want to know who the guest of the Shinomiya family is, do you? I don't know. It would be more convenient for you to ask him directly."

"That kind of thing is done by the real concubine or the emperor." Lian curled his lips, "Are you sure he is really busy with his duties in the Shigong family?"

"What else?" Ying Lili was confused. "What do you want to say?"

Lian hesitated for a moment and decided to just ask.

Both Eriri and Shizuku are very famous and popular people in this school.

Inevitably, some unpleasant problems will be involved.

"There's nothing wrong with Dianthus, right?"

"It's always like that." Eriri smiled, "Always smiling, but very reliable."

"It's not like that—" Lian coughed, "I mean, there's nothing wrong with that guy's body, right?"

Eriri looked at Lian as if she was an idiot, "Well... I've never taken off that guy's clothes, so I don't know."

"That's right." Lian changed direction again, "How about you? Is everything ok too?"
