"Kazama-san? I don't know."

"Yiji said that I was the kind of person who couldn't help but take home stray cats and dogs in cardboard boxes on rainy days. I couldn't help but feel worried when I saw problem girls and would take the initiative to help them, like an old woman who was always worrying about others." Jiang Zao smiled cheerfully. He didn't think there was anything wrong with this kind of personality.

I don't help those who have problems without any bottom line.

"What? Do I look like a problem girl too?" Ying Lili bared her little fangs at Jiang Zao with an unfriendly look.

"Let's not talk about this for now. At least you have encountered a problem, right?"

"Hmph... barely. I'll remember your kindness in helping me. Sooner or later, I'll find a suitable way to repay you."

"Okay, let's get back to work. I'll put the fried rice in the refrigerator for you."

Eriri returned to the table, waved her fist to encourage herself, and then buried her head in working on her notebook.

In the first half of the three and a half days, they drew the drafts until two in the morning. It was not until Jiang Zao hadn't received any new drafts from Ying Lili for a long time that he realized that she had fallen asleep quietly on the table.

The chubby little face was lying on the drawing paper, her nostrils fluttering slightly with her breathing, and her long golden hair scattered on the table, like a sleeping princess. It was a pity that under this beautiful princess's head was a book of exciting drawings.

“The World”

In the world where time stopped, Jiang Zao put Ying Lili on the bed, then closed the door and walked out of the room.

.....

The sharp sound of the alarm clock pierced her ears, and Ying Lili opened her eyes instantly. She turned over as if half awake and reached out to turn off the alarm clock, then buried her head in the soft pillow and continued to sleep, with her hand on the alarm clock without removing it.

Just before she was about to fall asleep, Eriri remembered that she still had to draw in her notebook. All of a sudden, all her sleepiness disappeared and she sat up like a spring.

"Huh? Why am I sleeping in bed?" Ying Lili frantically searched her body with her hands.

Fortunately, the clothes did not change.

She let out a long sigh, reached out to pick up the glasses next to the alarm clock and put them on. She caught a glimpse of a note on the small tea table. Ying Lili went over to pick up the note: "I saw that you were asleep, so I didn't wake you up. Remember to eat when you wake up."

Wasn’t it that Jiang Zao carried me to the bed?

Did he hold her in a princess hug or some other position?

Forget it... forget it, he has already hugged me anyway, so it’s okay... okay... um... but, but I can’t give him a good face, it would be bad if he misunderstands me as a frivolous girl.

Ying Lili didn't know what she was thinking. She stuck the note left by Jiang Zao next to the computer screen and walked towards the refrigerator humming a cheerful tune.

In the following time, the two of them were busy until late at night every day. Jiang Zao's work was no longer limited to helping Eriri draw the background. He gave Eriri suggestions on character movements from his own perspective. With practical experience, he could often make the novice Eriri blush.

Jiang Zao would only bring up such things with Ying Lili when discussing actions, so that she wouldn't have to blush all day long, and he always kept the stun gun at hand.

......

"Hey, Mom, I've finished drawing the book for the fan exhibition. I'll send it to you by expedited delivery. That's it. I need to catch up on some sleep."

Ying Lili hung up the phone. She finally finished the book for the fan exhibition on the afternoon of the third day. If it weren't for Jiang Zao's help, it would have taken her at least half a month. His drawing speed was really amazing.

Ying Lili felt like she was floating in the air, and every step she took felt like she was stepping on cotton. She forced herself to write her home address on the package and handed it to the courier.

Looking at the courier leaving, Ying Lili felt relieved. Now she just needed to go back to her room, have a good sleep, and wait for the notice of printing completion tomorrow. She didn't need to be present at the fan exhibition in person, as it would all be handled by her parents.

Ying Lili did not sleep through the next day. She was woken up by the frequent ringing of the phone. She muttered angrily, "I should have changed my phone to vibrate mode earlier."

"Hey?"

"Eri, are you sure you sent the manuscript home?"

"Mom!? Has the package arrived yet?"

"No, kid, did you fill in the wrong address?"

Ying Lili was so scared that her hands and feet turned cold. She looked at the time.

"23:42"

This time it’s really over!

Chapter 126: Being Tricked Again

Ying Lili had a very vague memory of the recipient's address she filled in, but now her mother had not received the expedited delivery, it must be because she filled in the wrong address. If it was some other problem, the courier company would definitely contact her.

It’s better to call the courier company first to ask about the situation.

"Dududu..."

No one answered the phone for a long time. Ying Lili hoped that the staff was busy and didn't hear it. She called several more times, but no one answered. Her heart sank.

I don’t know where the courier is now. It will be troublesome if I fill in the wrong address and it is delivered to someone else. But even if I fill in the wrong address, it shouldn’t be completely wrong. If this is the case, the courier should have discovered that the address does not exist and is preparing to return it to me tomorrow.

But in this case there is no guarantee that there will be enough time to send the finished products to the printing factory. How about I go to their nearby station to see if there is anyone working?

Eriri remembered that some courier stations were staffed 24 hours a day, but she wasn't sure whether the Black Cat Delivery Company she used also had night shift staff.

She could only hope for a lucky happier time and go to see what was going on. Ying Lili changed into her school uniform, stood on tiptoe and carefully opened the door. She stuck her head out of the bedroom and looked into the corridor. It was dark and very quiet.

Everyone should be asleep by this time.

Ying Lili tiptoed out of the room and closed the door gently. Her bedroom was on the second floor of the student dormitory, so she had to be even more careful when going downstairs.

Ying Lili also had this thought, why not ask Jiang Zao for help, but the Japanese have the unique strange idea of ​​not wanting to trouble others, which made her feel embarrassed to ask Jiang Zao for help again.

He has been working with me for three days. Now is the time for him to rest. How can I have the audacity to disturb others again?

......

"Jiang Zao, can you make mousse cake next time?"

"Let me guess, this is what Liang asked you to say, right?"

"Eh!? H-How did you know that?"

Jiang Zao could imagine Goto Ichiri's mouth opening in shock, and explained with a smile: "You prefer fried food and cola to desserts, and Hongxia and Kita are not the kind of people who would take the initiative to make such a request, so it's just a waste."

“I see…”

"By the way, it's getting late, you should go to bed."

"Well..."

"Be good, go to sleep, I'll come visit you in a few days."

"Ok!"

After coaxing his girlfriend to go to bed, Jiang Zao stood up and prepared to go outside to catch a sparkling golden "little mouse".

Ying Lili never expected that Jiang Zao was still awake at this time. The light in the administrator's office was particularly eye-catching in the dormitory at night. She could only bite the bullet and squat down, as if playing a stealth game, and move towards the door little by little.

Jiang Zao, please don't come out, please don't come out!

Ying Lili's inner prayers naturally could not be conveyed to him. Just when she was only two or three meters away from the dormitory door, Jiang Zao's voice sounded from behind her.

"Hey, Eriri, you wanna wake up and take a walk?"

"Ah!" Ying Lili jumped up in fright, her twin ponytails standing straight up. She put her right hand on her chest and used her left hand to tidy up her hair in front of her forehead, trying to hide her panic: "Jiang, Jiang Zao, why are you still not asleep?"

Jiang Zao smiled meaningfully: "I was planning to go to sleep, but I heard some noise outside, so I came out to take a look."

How sharp are your ears? I was almost crawling on the ground!

"Sorry to wake you up." Ying Lili just wanted to trick Jiang Zao back to sleep so that she could run out of school to check the situation at the express delivery station: "Well, you go back to sleep. I... I just can't sleep. Yes, I'm going to go out for a walk."

"I'm not sleepy for the moment, so I'll walk with you."

"No, no, go to bed early."

"Okay, then don't stay out too late." Jiang Zao nodded, turned around and walked into the house.

Ying Lili relaxed a little, and Jiang Zao stopped and said to her unexpectedly: "The school gate cannot be opened at night without my access card."

"Huh? So I still need your access card?" Ying Lili said this and then realized that she had been tricked by Jiang Zao again. She gave an awkward but polite smile and turned her head away, not daring to look at him.

"Eri, you want to sneak out of school in the middle of the night. What on earth are you planning to do?"

"I, I don't think I have enough paper in my sketchbook, so I'm going to buy some."

"You can buy that kind of stuff tomorrow. Why do you have to choose such a late hour?"

Eriri's eyes darted around in her sockets, and she thought of a good excuse that she thought was a good one: "Paintbrushes! I need to buy new brushes for coloring, and I don't want other people to know about this, so I went out to buy them now, yeah, that's it."

"Isn't that the same as buying manuscript paper? You can just go buy it separately at another time."

Ying Lili couldn't think of any other reason to convince Jiang Zao, and the two of them stood there frozen. Time passed little by little, and the silent atmosphere in the dormitory hall was broken by Jiang Zao.

He sighed with a headache, and asked Eriri earnestly: "Eriri, what on earth is it that requires you to sneak out of school in the middle of the night to do it?"

"This...I'm not in a position to say it."

"Ying Lili!" There was a hint of anger in Jiang Zao's voice.

It was the first time that Eriri saw him angry. She shrank her head and stared at her toes like a child who had done something wrong.

"Don't you consider me a friend?"

"No, no, of course you are my friend!"

"Then why don't you tell me why you went out?"

"me...."

I just don't want to bother you anymore.

Ying Lili pursed her lips and clenched the corner of her clothes with her fingers, feeling a little aggrieved.

"Hey, you're not thinking that you can't trouble me, are you?" Seeing Ying Lili didn't say anything, Jiang Zao took it as her consent.

To be honest, this idea of ​​not wanting to cause trouble to others often leads to greater trouble in the end.

"If you don't tell me, I won't let you out of the dormitory. You don't want to cause trouble for me, but your current behavior is to expand the trouble. Tell me the reason and I will find a solution for you. Isn't the problem solved?"

The stubborn Eriri knew that it was meaningless to continue to stalemate, so she gave her own reasons. "The manuscript of the notebook... I sent it to the wrong address, and it hasn't been delivered to my mother yet."

Jiang Zao's tone softened: "I understand. I'll find a way to deal with this matter."

After that, he called Nymph.

"Nymph, can you help me check a package? Um, Eriri, what's the name of the courier company?"

"Black Cat's Delivery Service."

"Black Cat Delivery, sent from Mihama Academy today, help me check where the package is now."

Chapter 127: Can’t drive without a driver’s license?

Nymph waved her hand to open the projected map, and after some operations on it, she found the express delivery sent by Eriri.

"Master, the package is currently in the warehouse because of the wrong address. It should be delivered back tomorrow."

"We may not have enough time to deliver it tomorrow, Nymph, please go to the warehouse and get the package back."

"clear."

"Any reward you want?"

"Food prepared by the owner and a report on whether the number of exercises per day is proportional to the duration of endurance."

Just the name of this report made Jiang Zao feel a dull pain in her waist. When it comes to juice extraction ability, she is far superior to all other girls. No matter how good a person is, they can never compare to a high-tech angel with unlimited power.

There are only cows that die from exhaustion in the world, but there are no fields that are damaged by plowing.

"I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Zao could only start preparing for Nymph's reward in advance. The man's strange desire to win was burning at this moment.

No matter what, the data in the investigation report cannot be too ugly!

Ying Lili, you made me bleed heavily this time.

"My sister will deliver it shortly, don't worry, Eriri."

"Thank you, Jiang Zao, but how did your sister find the package?"

"Well, just think of this as my special method." Jiang Zao doesn't plan to let Ying Lili come into contact with the side that transcends reality for the time being. She has just taken the first step in her growth, and it is better for her not to know about anything too exciting.
