Teacher Xia Lai is also teaching in Kivotos today

Fortunately, Qing's voice also sounded from Lin En's communicator at this time.

"The comparison is over, Teacher Lin, this is it!"

After hearing Qing's voice which sounded like heavenly music to him at that moment, Lin En finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, it’s time to implement the next step of the plan.

Chapter 35: Lin En, are you going to C&C for further studies?

Although Asuna was able to use her beast-like intuition to determine Lin's approximate location, the bullets in her assault rifle were not unlimited.

"Click——"

The moment the sound of the firing pin hitting the air was heard, Lin En, who was hiding in the smoke that was beginning to thin, covered his mouth and nose with a cloak and rushed towards Asuna without hesitation.

However, what Lin En did not expect was that when he pushed off the ground with his feet and jumped into the air, he found that the blonde girl appeared under him at the same time with an extremely graceful slide.

Not only that, in the smiling girl's hand appeared an assault rifle with its magazine already replaced.

"Asuna, I am here to attend!"

At this moment, knowing that he could not dodge in the air, Lin En thought quickly and threw the small cardboard box in his hand that was originally used to hold the [Mirror] towards Asuna.

"Da da da da——"

Seeing the cardboard box flying towards her, Asuna pulled the trigger without hesitation and smashed it to pieces.

Although there was nothing hidden inside, it still bought Lin En some precious time.

The moment Lin En threw the cardboard box, he also took out a few things from his pocket that looked very inconspicuous, even a little earthy, and like candy.

Then he slammed it hard to the ground.

"Bang bang bang bang-"

In an instant, the continuous explosion sounds produced by these exploding firecrackers burst out instantly.

"Wow?!"

As she had not expected this sudden "attack", Asuna paused as she was about to aim the gun at Lynn.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lynn climbed onto the wall again.

Next to him is the only window of this detention center.

In other words, he only needed to break the glass here and then use the glider to escape.

But just as Asuna reacted and pointed the gun towards the window, Lynn turned a corner without hesitation and rushed towards the door he came in through.

Looking at Lin En's departing back, Asuna stood up from the ground and blinked in confusion.

"01, how is the battle going in the storage facility?"

Hearing the question from her colleague on the communicator, Asuna scratched her head in confusion.

"Strange, for some reason, she didn't choose to escape through the window..."

"...What a pity. The moment she broke through the window, I was 100% sure I could hit her."

"But... if she was really hit by your gun, she would probably faint on the spot, right? In this case, wouldn't the child falling from such a high place look very pitiful? It must be very painful, right?"

“This is a necessary lesson.”

Listening to her colleague's answer, Asuna chuckled and replaced the magazine of the rifle in her hand.

"But I quite like that child."

"...After you meet the minister, you can ask her if she is still willing to accept a new maid."

"Haha! It seems that you, Karin, also like that child!"

Asuna replied as she walked out of the storage center.

She knew all the arrangements outside very well. Even if the thief could get rid of them later, or even break through the blockade of this thousand-year-old tower, he would never be able to get out of this place.

The reason is very simple, because their minister who possesses the strongest combat power in C&C is about to arrive here.

--------

"Momoi, Midori."

After repelling the siege of the defense robots once again, Momoi and Midori, who were counting the ammunition behind the bunker, heard a voice that was somewhat strange but also very familiar.

"Lin...Joker-san!"

Looking at the two sisters who were looking at her at the same time, Lin En nodded slightly.

"Thank you for your hard work... We have obtained the [Mirror], and now we just need to find a way to retreat."

"Can't we just jump out of that broken French window over there and then escape using a glider?"

Hearing Midori's suggestion, Lynn shook his head slightly.

"C&C has an excellent sniper. I don't know his position yet, so I can't guarantee that I can avoid his sniper fire while running away from here with you two."

As he said this, Lynn threw out three playing cards, destroying two defense robots that were trying to sneak up on them.

"But don't worry, I have already made a plan for what's next. Just wait a moment."

However, just as Lynn was about to explain the plan to them, the fire door of the fire escape diagonally in front of them was suddenly pushed open.

Then, a familiar figure appeared in front of them.

"You guys!"

Hearing this extremely familiar voice, Tao Jing and Midori both froze in unison.

"It's... it's the big devil!"

"Who is the big devil? Please don't give others such weird nicknames, okay?!"

After protesting in dissatisfaction, Yuka sighed helplessly and looked at the two of them.

"Although I really want to say hello, I really didn't expect you to make such a big deal out of this. I'm really surprised about this, so I'll just praise you a little. But one thing at a time..."

Although Yuka's expression didn't change at this time, and her words and attitude weren't particularly intense, for some reason, Lin En seemed to be able to hear the sound of veins popping out on her forehead.

"Attacking the student union like this is no longer just a prank! You'd better be prepared for an unconditional suspension for a week or even detention!"

"Wha...what?!"

After hearing Yuuka's words, Taoi and Midori's faces turned pale for a moment.

"If it's only a week... then the Millennium Science Academy club competition is already over, right?!"

Seeing the two of them like this, Yuuka remembered something and raised the corner of her mouth slightly.

"Anyway, Alice is in the reflection room right now. Wouldn't it be too pitiful for her to be alone? If you could go with her, she would definitely be happy, right?"

“Wow…Wow…”

When Tao Jing spoke stiffly, a strange figure pushed open the fire door of the fire escape and appeared in front of everyone.

“Huh… finally here… I’m actually a little out of breath… could it be because of the weight… no, it can’t be.”

Although the other party said some ambiguous words, the moment they saw this figure, Taoi and Midori, who also recognized the other party, froze in place for a moment.

"Ah... well, even Akane-senpai is here..."

However, although Qian heard their words at this time, she did not look at the sisters, but looked at Lin En who was wearing the phantom thief costume.

"I guess this must be Joker-san. I have to say that your plan to sneak into the Millennium Tower and your skills in fighting Asuna-senpai were all outstanding. I wonder if you would be interested in studying at C&C after you finish your confinement? I think you should be able to become an excellent maid in no time."

"Ah this..."

Faced with Akane suddenly extending an olive branch to them, not to mention Lin En, even Taoi and Midori were dumbfounded for a moment.

As Lynn was trying to figure out how to respond, Yuuka sighed.

"Xia, he won't agree to your request."

Before Akane, who looked puzzled, could ask, Yuka looked at Lin En and said helplessly.

"Didn't we agree to only provide them with a little help? It's really outrageous to do something like this! Teacher Lin En!"

Chapter 36 If Yuuka recognizes me, my career as a phantom thief will be over.

Hearing Yuuka's somewhat abrupt words, Akane beside her couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise.

But not only Akane, but also Momoi and Midori were speechless. And the fact that Yuuka recognized his identity so quickly also surprised Lin En.

"Eh? Did you mention the teacher just now?"

At this moment, Asuna came out of the storage center and approached Yuuka and Akane, asking with a suspicious look on her face.

"Uh... about this..."

Although Yuuka had directly called the man with a halo on his head and wearing a phantom thief costume "teacher", Akane still felt a little suspicious, so she didn't directly relay her words to Asuna.

Seeing this, Lin En adjusted his hat and spoke as if nothing had happened.

"My lady, I don't know why you mistook me for that teacher, but..."

Before Lin En could finish his words, Yuka interrupted him with a helpless look on her face.

"Teacher Lin En, don't forget. As the accountant of the Student Union, I am qualified and obligated to audit the funds and other fund flows of almost all clubs in Millennium Science and Technology Academy. Not only the suit you are wearing, but also the fact that it was finally delivered to you when you were still in Abydos, is all recorded in the report submitted by the Engineering Department."

At this point, Yuuka sighed softly as if she remembered something.

"What's more, even without this report, the voiceprint identification system alone is enough to infer your identity. Although you used military camouflage three-color concealer for makeup and wore a monocle with signal interference function to prevent your face from being photographed, the voice changer on your bow tie is too crude. It is so crude that the voiceprint correction that comes with the voiceprint identification system can crack its effect and determine your identity."

"..."

After hearing Yuxiang's somewhat long-winded explanation, Lin En couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.

Is this the Millennium Science and Technology Academy with powerful science and technology? It must be useful... Well, now that my identity has been directly recognized, there should be no next time.

Faced with Yuuka who had recognized his identity, Lin En realized that there was no point in pretending any longer and could only smile bitterly as he turned off the voice changer on his bow tie and the halo projector hidden in his top hat.

"What a mistake. I didn't expect that I would be so wrong about something like this."

"Because everyone at Millennium Science and Technology Academy is used to the fact that the clubs have to submit finished product reports regularly, it is inevitable that the seniors in the engineering department forget to remind the teachers to pay attention to this aspect."

Yuuka said this while glaring at Momoi and Midori who looked away with a guilty look on their face.

After hearing Lin En's real voice and seeing the halo above his head disappear, Akane and Asuna both widened their eyes at the same time.

"Oh! That's what I told you! My intuition tells me that if I stay in the storage room, I will definitely see the teacher!"

As if her guess or intuition was confirmed, Asuna smiled brightly. But then, she spoke to Lin En in a serious tone.

"But, but, teacher, you can't do this kind of thing casually again. Although I didn't hurt you just now, there will be many unexpected situations on the battlefield. As an adult without the protection of the halo, it will be troublesome if you get hurt!"

"...I will pay attention."

When Lin En answered Asuna's words with a wry smile, Akane beside her couldn't help but sigh.

"Hmm... I didn't expect that the teacher, as an adult, is quite courageous."

If Qian just now admired "Phantom Thief Joker", then now she has a good impression of Lin En.

Although he helped the game development department to cause a lot of damage, to C&C, the damage he caused was nothing. Rather, for them, in order to "complete the cleanup", they would not hesitate to cause more damage.

Therefore, in this regard, Qian actually appreciates Lin En more, because she might have common topics with her.

However, besides Asuna and Akane, there was another person on the field who was angry because of Lin En's behavior.

"Teacher Lin En, in view of your behavior of helping them, we will send a letter of protest to Xia Lai afterwards. Please understand!"

Facing Yuuka who was still a little angry, Lin En touched his chin and said with a smile as if he had discovered something.

"Now that the matter is settled, why don't we sit down and talk about it, Yuuka?"

"This……"

Just when Yuka hesitated because of Lin En's suggestion, Lin En suddenly threw out two projectiles with both hands.

Almost at the moment the thing left his hand, Lin En reached out without hesitation and hugged Tao Jing and Midori, who had no idea how to react, and fell to the ground as quickly as possible.
