Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

Page 107

Shi Hen said without any sincerity.

"Did Lord Hen deceive those girls in the past few days in the same way?"

Yaezakura said with resentment in her tone.

She has gradually discovered the boy's true nature.

"Ms. Ying, don't just look at the surface of things." Shi Hen stretched out a finger and shook it, "At least, their results are still good, just like you, Miss Ying."

Even for Mei, who only dreams of becoming an Avenger, her life is definitely much better than in the original time and space.

At least, the girl no longer suffered from school bullying, and she also knew that her father was innocent, and even understood the other party's unspoken love.

From these aspects, Mei really deserves to give him a banner.

Yaezakura: “…”

Just a second ago, you said that the process is more important.

"If I had not agreed to join you, what would Lord Hen do to me?"

After hesitating for a while, Yaezakura couldn't help but ask.

Just as the young man said, she was indeed grateful for his help in the Stigmata Space.

But on the other hand, she found it difficult to accept the boy's deception of her.

Alas, the world outside is too complicated. I really want to go back to the Stigmata Space and stay there.

The witch suddenly felt tired.

"If Miss Ying refuses, I will have no choice but to lock you up." Shi Hen said frankly, taking a sip of tea with a helpless expression, "I'm sorry, but I have reasons to do this."

The boss behind the scenes will never be exposed unless he actively defected at the end.

"If you want to keep a secret, silencing me would be a more direct way, right?"

Yaezakura asked with a complicated expression.

When she thought the boy was a bad guy, some of his shining points suddenly became apparent, making her unable to help but hold hope.

"I'm not a demon." Shi Hen shook his head, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and put it into his mouth, with a smile on his face. "Miss Ying, don't you want to try these snacks? It is said that this is a century-old shop, with the craftsmanship of several generations."

Although the price is quite high, the taste is indeed not bad.

Fortunately, the young man at this time was not short of money, otherwise he would not have bought the entire shrine.

The land in Changkong City is not cheap.

Hearing this, Yaezakura also picked up a piece of cake and chewed it carefully, nodding her head: "It is indeed much better than what I ate at the festival when I was a child."

Even with the added bonus of childhood memories, the deliciousness of these pastries in front of me is real.

All I can say is that the craftsmanship of professional craftsmen is definitely not something that ordinary people can match.

"Festival..." Hearing this word, Shi Hen's tone also showed a little more interest, "The festivals in Miss Ying's era must have been very lively, right?"

"It wasn't a good time, but the festival was really lively. Every year at that time, people from several villages would come..."

The setting sun shone on her body without much warmth. Yaezakura drank tea and ate snacks while talking about the past that had long been forgotten.

The cold north wind became gentle as it passed through the woods, and the corners of the girl's mouth slowly curled up.

A day like this doesn’t seem so bad, right?

Looking at the young man's pair of bright black eyes in front of her, and feeling the sweet fragrance between his lips and teeth, the witch couldn't help but think in her heart.

But while the shrine maidens are enjoying their lives, the eldest daughter of the Raiden family is not having such a comfortable time.

In the kendo field, facing the box of mercury placed in front of her, Mei tried her best but could only make ripples appear on the surface, which was far from condensing into a ball.

"What exactly is going on?"

Looking at the constantly fluctuating surface of mercury, Mei gritted her teeth with an unwilling look on her face.

It was clearly the same box of mercury, so why couldn't she even condense it into a ball when she practiced alone?

What's the difference between this and when that bastard named Shihen was present?

Sighing helplessly, Mei could only pick up the phone next to her and enter her email skillfully.

Still no unread emails.

Where on earth did that bastard go!?

The girl frowned and felt like throwing her phone away.

I clearly agreed to be her fencing coach, so why did he suddenly disappear without leaving an email?

This guy, I must teach him a lesson next time!

Said Mei angrily, throwing her phone aside and continuing to control the mercury to create ripples.

Just as the boy said, if you want to gain extraordinary power, you must have persistent patience.

One day, she will be able to put stickers all over the other person's face.

Chapter 121: On this day, the boy was stabbed in the back

At nightfall, the Inari Shrine in the mountains is utterly silent, with the hustle and bustle of the world blocked out by layers of trees.

After a simple but not shabby dinner, the witch watched the young man take out some books and start copying and writing. A hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes: "Sir Hen, are you deciphering the secret code?"

"Secret code?"

The pen tip paused, Shi Hen raised his head, a look of confusion on his face.

"I've read about it in a book. To keep secrets, people hide the real information in a long, unnecessary paragraph of text that only professionals can understand."

Yaezakura explained.

"No, it's just a textbook."

Shi Hen shook his head helplessly.

"textbook?"

The witch, who had only received family education, tilted her head and expressed her incomprehension.

"It's about printing things in a unified way so that many people can learn them, to ensure that everyone understands the same principles."

Shi Hen tried his best to explain it in a language that even the ancients five hundred years ago could understand.

“A lot of people studying?”

Yaezakura blinked in confusion.

In her time, there was no such thing as basic education, and the number of literate people in the entire Yae Village could be counted on one hand.

"Times have changed now. Books and paper are very cheap, so everyone must receive education and learn knowledge." Shaking the textbook in his hand, Shi Hen explained, "You should have seen the library in the shrine. Those books are actually not expensive in this era."

“This is a really good era.”

Yaezakura smiled and nodded.

In her time, books were also a symbol of wealth.

When she first saw the bookshelves piled with books in the shrine's library, she was shocked and thought the boy was some prince or nobleman.

But if we ignore those books...she did have a shrine in the past, but it was smaller and less popular than the current one.

If you round it off, the wealth she possesses is not much different from that of the young man.

The poor witch suddenly felt mysteriously confident.

“But this is also the worst time.”

Shi Hen said quietly.

In a few years, the end will come.

"..."

The witch fell into a state of confusion.

She deeply felt the generation gap between the two.

Seeing that the boy had no intention of explaining, Yaezakura thought for a moment before continuing, "Does Lord Hen also need to study these...textbooks?"

She still wasn't used to the word.

"No, these are for other people." Shi Hen shook his head and continued to move his pen. It was a simple way of multitasking. "Remember those girls from a few days ago? Some of them are not doing well in their studies and need a little help."

Seele's foundation is not up to high school level, while Kiana has no foundation at all.

He has been displaced in the past few years and has to work to support his living expenses. From time to time, he has to play the role of a superhero to fight against the collapse. The white-haired dumpling has no conditions to study.

Even if she settled down a little in Changkong City and in the future Saint Freya, Kiana, who had already developed an aversion to studying, would find it difficult to continue learning.

So at this time, his close friend needs to come into play.

From the shallower to the deeper, Shihen will completely reconstruct the knowledge system of Baimaotuanzi.

"Is this also a way to deceive them?"

Yaezakura said with resentment in her tone.

As one of the victims, she had deeply experienced the disguise and deception of the teenager.

When she was in the Stigmata space, she truly regarded the boy as the light that could save her.

But it turned out to be just bait.

What's even more terrifying is that even if she understood the truth at this moment, it seemed that she had no choice but to accept it all.

"Ms. Ying, how could you assume such malicious intent towards me?" Shi Hen said innocently, "I just extended a helping hand to a friend in trouble, and everyone will be very happy.

Saint Lady... Oh, no, it was Mr. Walter who once said that when judging a person, we should not look at what he says, but what he does. "

Looking at the boy's innocent and friendly face, Yaezakura frowned and thought for a long time, then said: "Who is Walter?"

"Another idol of mine."

Shi Hen said seriously.

Looking down at herself, the witch lady suddenly understood.

This is a habitual offender.

"God said that liars will go to hell and have their tongues pulled out after they die."

Yaezakura advised kindly.

She hopes the boy can get on the right track.

"It doesn't matter. I won't die."

Shi Hen waved his hands indifferently.

Yaezakura: “…”
