Ch 141: The Law of Conservation of Luck

Pa Hua Luo Di’s extremely unpleasant mood warmed up slightly after learning that Jian Ni was still completely unaware of the matter.

At least he wasn’t the last to know, and as President Eric said, the children didn’t speak up because they didn’t want to worry him.

But he still had many grievances.

“Then you shouldn’t have acted without telling me! What if Principal Ous takes even more drastic action?”

Mi Ya Xing, outside the door, thought that even if Wu Ke Na Na was a true Dark Undercover Agent, there would still be a process required for execution. No matter how drastic Principal Ous was, there were limits to his actions.

Eric, standing inside receiving a scolding, clearly thought of this as well. He was momentarily stunned, then maintained his apologetic posture with his head bowed:

“I’m sorry, Director Pa. It was my poor consideration.”

After his repeated apologies, Director Pa Hua Luo Di, sitting in his office chair, coughed lightly twice. Eric understood that this signaled the end of the reprimand, but also that forgiving him so quickly made him lose face.

For the next twenty minutes, he sincerely expressed to Director Pa that Meng Academy couldn’t function without him, that Director Pa was Meng Academy’s pillar, and the indispensable sun in the hearts of all students, and so on.

Outside, Wu La La and Mi Ya Xing got goosebumps repeatedly.

Wu La La whispered, “Is that how President Eric tricked my older sister into being his girlfriend?”

“No,” Mi Ya Xing glanced inside, confirming that the currently elated Director Pa wouldn’t notice them, “He’s incredibly clumsy when he’s with your sister.”

“How do you know?”

“Oh, that day he went to confess to Wu Ke Na Na. I thought they were going on an adventure without me, so I followed them and accidentally found out.”

Wu La La had a general understanding of his “accident.”

However, having dealt with Director Pa, there was still another matter to resolve.

Jian Ni.

This time, Eric refused to play rock-paper-scissors with them.

“Hey, Wu La La, it’s best if you’re the one to talk to him.” The two of them huddled in a corner, Mi Ya Xing looking as if he were bestowing an important task.

“Why me…?” Wasn’t it agreed that they would face it together?

Mi Ya Xing quickly interrupted her, “Wu Ke Na Na is your older sister, right?”

Wu La La nodded blankly.

“You understand her situation better than anyone else, right?”

Wu La La nodded again.

“Right? You know everything about this, so of course you’re the most suitable person to tell him!”

“But aren’t you also…” Wu La La’s thinking was clear; she wasn’t completely swayed by Mi Ya Xing.

He interrupted her again, “If I were to tell him, Jian Ni might get angry—whoosh—a burst of fire, and turn me into grilled fish. Would you bear to see your classmate become grilled fish?”

Mi Ya Xing looked pitiful, and then, as Wu La La was contemplating shaking her head, he pushed her out of the corner.

The sudden push startled both Wu La La and Jian Ni, who was sweeping the floor.

“You’re looking for me…is there something you need?” Jian Ni scratched his head sheepishly.

Was it about the new flavor of Bear Bear Biscuits? He was a little expectant.

While sweeping the floor alone, no one had specifically told him about Wu Ke Na Na’s arrest. Consequently, the news had spread throughout most of the school, but he still knew nothing.

He only felt that the eyes of several students who had passed by were strange.

The moment Jian Ni raised his hand, Wu La La imagined herself turning into grilled fish.

And profoundly felt that Mi Ya Xing was not someone worthy of trust.

Wu La La, whose methods of comforting people only involved offering Bear Bear Biscuits and head pats, faced an incredibly difficult predicament.

What to do? She had never encountered such a situation before.

Subconsciously looking for help from her teammate—she found not a single strand of hair in that direction.

Her teammate had abandoned her at some point.

The girl felt helpless and alone in the battle.

“Otherwise,” closing her eyes, Wu La La prepared for death, “just turn me into grilled fish.”

Jian Ni, who was still processing the nonsensical news—that Wu Ke Na Na had the Dark Gene, that Wu Ke Na Na’s Dark Gene was somewhat out of control, that if Wu Ke Na Na’s Dark Gene fully erupted she would be controlled, that Wu Ke Na Na was now locked in the Detention Room— inexplicably heard this sentence.

“What…”

Wow, Wu La La’s appearance just now was so cute…wait, a sliver of rationality squeezed out from her lovesick brain, and he quickly retracted his smile.

“So, everyone knew about this, and only decided to tell me when you couldn’t hide it any longer?!”

If Rui Bu Si were here, she would have told Wu La La to seize the opportunity to pick out his flaws and shift the blame.

But she wasn’t.

And Wu La La lacked experience in lying, and even less in shirking responsibility.

A minor panic arose in Meng Academy because of Wu Ke Na Na possessing the Dark Gene.

Director Pa repeatedly assured everyone that Wu Ke Na Na had been confined to the Detention Room and would not pose a threat to their safety, and that as long as the Ten Stars appeared, the Dark Gene on Wu Ke Na Na could be eliminated.

“So, Gui Gongzai, will you become a Ten Star to save Wu Ke Na Na?” Ha Li Bo Bo took the garlic bread…one piece…which became half a clove of garlic…from Lei Gu Chun, politely saying thank you.

“Definitely not, he’s so cowardly.” With a completely tactless remark, Lei Gu Chun’s months of experience in backstabbing told him the atmosphere was wrong and he should immediately stop eating bread, “It’s not me saying this, it’s my sister.”

Gui Gongzai’s face flushed red from his words: “Humph!”

He wouldn’t deign to become a Meng Knight.

Rui Bu Si didn’t care about these things.

Whether it was Meng Knights or the Dark Gene, whatever it was, in a few days, no matter the outcome, it would all pass, right?

If it didn’t pass, just leave it to fate, fate! Please, fate, show me that my wealth luck this month is excellent, fate!

Currently, Wu Ke Na Na, Wu La La, and Eric’s luck wasn’t very good;

Overall, Mulan Huahua and Ba Rui Si’s fortunes were also average;

Specifically observing Director Pa, Head Nurse Da Tiantian, and the current Principal, their worried expressions were clearly not a sign of good fortune.

Therefore, according to the law of conservation of luck, at this time, good fortune should befall her, as their mutual friend or student!

After mentally “sacrificing” everyone whose name she knew, she eagerly awaited Rui Rui’s divination:

“So, so, will my wealth luck be better in the future?”

“It’s different from the previous results.”

Rui Bu Si’s eyes lit up.

“The cards show that your wealth luck for the next few months will be even worse than before,” looking at the cards, Rui Rui added a consoling remark, “But your overall fortune is quite good.”

Ba Bi leaned over to take a look. She couldn’t understand the patterns on the cards, but she could understand the results.

She didn’t understand the dark cloud hovering over Rui Bu Si’s head:

“It’s consistently bad every month, what’s the point of divination?”

“It’s the same as you, always wearing consistently bad makeup, yet still wasting time every day.” Reapplying lipstick, “That’s called ‘ugly people do more bad things,’ you know?”

Rui Bu Si lifted her sad little head.

This wasn’t right, this was completely unreasonable!

Just scold me if you want to scold me, why step on my unlucky roommate’s broken heart?

When Ba Rui Si accidentally ate her lipstick, she must have also swallowed her roommately feelings, so her crimson lips could utter such emotionless words!

“Rui Rui,” her pleading gaze was more earnest than when she was praying for wealth luck, “Please, by all means, divine a bad fortune result for Ba Rui Si.”

“I only do divination,” Rui Rui reminded her, “I don’t change fate.”

At this point, regardless of whether Ba Rui Si’s fortune was good or bad, her own fate would probably not be optimistic.

What was the class discussing just now?

As long as it wasn’t related to her current predicament, it would be temporarily safe for her.

Ah, right, Wu Ke Na Na!

“I want to divine for Wu Ke Na Na first.” As long as she could delay until class started, she could escape this calamity!

“After all, the senior is a pretty nice person, and I’m also very worried about her safety.”

Hmm, although I haven’t met her many times, Senior, please help me out this once.

The smokescreen worked effectively, drawing almost the entire class’s attention. Rui Rui slowly performed the divination, and as class was about to begin, the result was finally obtained:

“Inauspicious, yet with a glimmer of good fortune.”
