Teacher Xia Lai is also teaching in Kivotos today

"Then what are we waiting for here? Go and help the teacher right now!"

"Akane-chan, don't worry!"

After quickly reaching out and grabbing Akane who was about to rush out of the activity room, Nonami said seriously.

"The teacher is definitely not such a reckless person! Although he showed that look yesterday, he definitely won't be so impulsive!"

"But...but, this is too much of a coincidence!"

While the four of them were arguing, the sound of the activity room door being pushed open was heard.

The moment they heard the voice, everyone turned their heads and looked towards the door.

"...Huh... This is the first time I've received such a warm welcome..."

Seeing Hoshino showing up unexpectedly so early, Ayane blinked slightly in confusion.

"Senior Hoshino...why are you here in the activity room so early today?"

"Well... you can understand it as a whim."

After laughing, Hoshino, who noticed the atmosphere in the activity room, frowned slightly and asked.

"…Did something happen?"

"Yes! Senior Hoshino, look at this!"

Qianxiang quickly handed the note in her hand to Hoshino, and at the same time poured out all the speculations of the crowd, even telling them that the three of them had not slept well the whole night because of Lin En yesterday.

"Ah... So everyone didn't sleep well because of this..."

When Ayane laughed bitterly, Hoshino had already finished reading the contents of the note.

However, compared to the other people in Abydos, Hoshino, who had a deeper understanding of Lin En because of what happened last night, had already guessed why Lin En looked like that yesterday.

In such a "wandering" life, it is inevitable to encounter some extremely vicious guys. If you cannot gain an advantage in direct force, the easiest way to gain an advantage in the battle is to intimidate the enemy through "momentum".

Thinking about it this way, the look that Lin En showed yesterday was unconsciously cultivated during that period of time.

And what's very coincidental is that Hoshino himself has a deep understanding of this.

More importantly, she didn't think Lin En was the kind of person who would rush into a fight with others just because he got excited.

Therefore, Hoshino, who figured out the whole thing in an instant, chuckled and spoke to comfort everyone.

"Don't worry, maybe Teacher Lin En just has to go back to Xialai for something urgent. There's no need to worry so much."

Chapter 37 It's Like Coming Home

After hearing what Hoshino said, Baizi, who reacted the fastest, immediately took out his cell phone.

"Let me see if I can contact the teacher first."

Hearing this, everyone quickly leaned over and looked at her phone screen.

【Teacher, where are you now? 】

Fortunately, less than a minute after Bai Zi sent the message, Lin En replied immediately.

[I am investigating something]

Seeing Lin En's reply, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

[Teacher, are you investigating something about the Caesars Group? ]

【Yes. 】

After replying to Bai Zi's message in seconds, Lin En was silent for a moment and then sent the second message.

[Assholes like that, let's leave it to adults to investigate. ]

After reading this sentence, everyone on the Countermeasures Committee couldn't help but look at each other.

"I think even if we ask the teacher where he is and whether he needs our help, he will definitely not answer us, right?"

“…I think so, too.”

Ayane nodded slightly, agreeing with Nonami's words.

"Well... since everyone didn't get a good rest last night, why don't we relax and have a good sleep today!"

Faced with Hoshino's suggestion which sounded extremely unreliable, Akane couldn't help but protest out loud.

"Who else can sleep for a whole day except Hoshino-senpai!"

"Since Teacher Lin En has said so, shall we relax a little today?"

After Ayane chuckled and tried to smooth things over, she suggested something as if she remembered something.

"How about... we take this opportunity to visit General Chai?"

"Agree!"

--------

"...They didn't think I was rushing towards Caesars with a gun, did they?"

After putting away his phone, Lin En seemed to have figured something out and couldn't help but chuckle.

Then, he looked up at the gate of Gehenna College in front of him, which he had not been away from for a long time.

Relying on the reputation he had left in Gehenna and Teacher Xia Lai's work permit with the authority of the Federal Student Union, Lin En entered the campus very smoothly without any questioning.

The reason why he returned to the Gehenna campus, in addition to visiting his acquaintances, was to ask the Disciplinary Committee whether they had collected any information about the Caesar Group.

After all, the Caesar Group, which is a group that only seeks profit, certainly did not target Abydos for no reason. And Gehenna must be somewhat wary of the existence of the Caesar Group, and naturally there should be some information about it.

It's not that he didn't think about looking through the database of the Federal Student Union, but Alona told him that the database of the Student Union was still under repair. If it was data or software, she could still recover it, but if there was a problem with the hardware, she would be helpless.

There was no other choice but for Lin En to trust his own connections.

"If that doesn't work... let's go to Trinity and ask around..."

Although it is not clear whether those people in the black market who once hunted him still remember him, he now has the identity of Xia Lai's teacher as a shield. At worst, he can ask Lian Jian and others to protect him.

Just as Lin En was thinking about his next move, a slightly sweet scent entered his nostrils.

Turning around, I found that the source of the smell was a fairly famous dessert shop in Gehenari.

“I didn’t expect that a branch store would open here…”

Lin En muttered to himself and prepared to move on. Suddenly, he realized that although he came here to gather intelligence, he also came to visit his acquaintances. If he came here empty-handed, wouldn't it be a bit unseemly?

Thinking of this, Lynn turned and walked into the store, starting to figure out how many and what types of desserts to buy.

Just as he placed his order and sat down in his window seat on the second floor, he suddenly heard a loud gunfight outside the window.

But Lin En didn't feel strange. After all, he was used to this situation when he was in Gehenna. Rather, it was simply a foolish dream to spend a whole day quietly in Gehenna.

Therefore, for Lynn, who returned to Gehenna, this gunfight felt like returning home and seeing a familiar scene.

However, when Lin En looked in the direction of the voice, he found that a large group of familiar figures wearing black uniforms and discipline armbands appeared on the street outside. Not only that, they were led by a girl with silver-gray twin ponytails that Lin En knew.

"…Who is Iori and the Discipline Committee members chasing after?"

When Lin En, who was muttering to himself, looked in the direction where Iori was shooting, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

They were four students that Lin En was very familiar with, and they were using a fast food truck to fight back against Iori and the others.

"…Are they going to blow up some popular online food restaurant again?"

Thinking of the "bad deeds" of the four people in the Food Research Club, Lin En couldn't help but mourn for Hina and Ako, who would probably have a lot more work to do because of this.

You know, unlike ordinary internet celebrities or anchors who visit stores, the food research department led by Haruna not only has strict standards for visiting stores, but also will not hesitate to blow up a store with a bomb if they think it does not match its slogan or fails to meet the "food" standard - and this is usually done by Haruna herself.

Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that they are being pursued by Iori from the Disciplinary Committee.

Just when Lin En was about to send a message to ask Fengxiang or Hina if they were in the cafeteria or the office while enjoying the gunfight, he suddenly found that Haruna suddenly turned her head and looked at him.

Then, the beautiful girl smiled and waved at him as if she had discovered something interesting.

Instantly, Lin En, who had just taken out his cell phone, couldn't help but pause.

Almost at the same time as a bad premonition filled his heart, Lin En stood up from his seat without hesitation, reached out and grabbed the robot waiter passing by and asked.

"Waiter, where is the back door of your store?"

However, the waiter did not feel surprised by Lin En's somewhat abrupt and unreasonable behavior.

After all, in Gehenna, being chased or suddenly being entangled in trouble for no reason is a very normal thing. Therefore, many stores in Gehenna are equipped with back doors that allow customers, employees, and even store managers to escape quickly.

After learning the location and route of the back door from the waiter, Lynn immediately turned and ran towards the stairs, preparing to escape from the back door along the employee passage after going down the stairs.

However, as he rushed down the stairs, before he even had time to turn around, in front of the shocked gazes of the onlookers, he bumped into a girl with long, smooth silver-white hair who had also suddenly rushed in from the door of the dessert shop.

Chapter 38 Kairun!

As one of the people involved in the collision, the moment he was hit head-on, Lin En fell heavily on his back onto the ground, causing him to close his eyes involuntarily and almost suffocate.

However, the next moment, he felt himself being wrapped by something wonderful and soft, and then something soft and elastic pressed against his chest.

"..."

When he swallowed and slowly opened his eyes, a picturesque smiling face appeared in his sight.

Lin En remembered the other person's identity almost instantly and unleashed his arm that he had subconsciously wrapped around the other person's slender waist, while speaking to the other person in a kind manner.

"It's been a long time, Haruna."

"Oh my... I thought I was seeing things. I didn't expect it to be you, Teacher Lin En."

Haruna said this, supporting Lin En's chest with her hands and sitting up, looking at him with a smile.

Looking at Haruna who was sitting on his lower abdomen and didn't seem to have any intention of getting down for the time being, Lin En understood something and coughed lightly.

"Haruna, I think this is a misunderstanding. You can run away without worry. I will never report you to Iori and the others."

"Haha...of course I believe in the teacher's credibility."

In response to Lin En's words, Haruna stood up from him gracefully and then extended her hand to him.

"Besides, I accidentally bumped into you and caused you to fall. I am really sorry."

After seeing Haruna's intellectual look, Lin En was stunned at first, then smiled with relief.

However, because he had been away from Gehenna for a while and had forgotten something, he took Haruna's outstretched hand and stood up.

"It's okay. I have other things to deal with. You guys just hurry up..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin En, who was about to withdraw his hand, suddenly felt that his hand was tightly grasped by Haruna for some reason. To Lin En at this moment, the green fingers of the beautiful girl in front of him were as scary as a vice!

As if she had noticed Lin En's actions, Haruna looked like a hunter who saw his prey fall into a trap.

"Hehe... How can we give up halfway in the pursuit of delicious food? Don't you think so, teacher?"

Hearing these familiar words, Lin En's face suddenly fell as he instantly recalled the temperament of everyone in the Food Research Department.

"You guys, have you already made up your mind to take me as a hostage from the beginning?!"

"Haha, the road to delicious food is bumpy!"

Just like that, poor Lin En was forced to leave the dessert shop by the hand of Haruna, who was talking nonsense.

Lin En had never expected that the "humiliation" that he had never experienced when he was in the Gehenna Supply Department would actually be experienced at this time -

Now, he was being paraded through the streets in public, carried on Haruna's shoulders like a bag of flour. And the girl even raised her rifle with her other hand and fired back at the pursuit team of the Discipline Committee.

Iori, who was shooting at them, seemed to have noticed that there was an extra person on Haruna's shoulder and shouted.
