Ch 43: Why haven’t you left yet?

Spending a pleasant half-evening alone in the ocean of knowledge, Rui Bu Si put down her pen.

After being happy for so long, I kind of want to find a pit to bury this school in.

Under what circumstances would someone miss their annoying ex?

—When their current partner is even worse.

Although her former boss, Dark Great Emperor, was unreasonable, he didn’t rigidly require the undercover agent to complete their homework independently.

He didn’t care about academics.

He just liked to randomly throw out all sorts of messy, sometimes unrealistic tasks.

But most of the tasks were actually easy to complete.

For example, you could throw everything to Yin Sen;

Or, for another example, you could team up with other colleagues and together throw all the tasks to Yin Sen.

Regardless, it would absolutely never be like the System, demanding a strange and unusual task—

Completing all homework without any outside help.

【Do you want to return to the Dark Great Emperor’s side?】

“No, actually I’m a good person who loves studying.”

Some things are only suitable for reminiscing; going back is pointless.

A certain good person who loves studying, while no longer having reading comprehension problems, still has significant problems understanding the questions.

Perhaps several hundred years is a bit too long.

She picked up her pen again, thinking that she could still recall a little about the plants in the book.

Meng Academy used to be extremely strict about learning magic-related knowledge; during her days as an undercover agent, she had been forced to memorize countless things.

Only this impression seems to be several versions behind.

To the point that it has become a bit harder to learn.

“Xiao Luo Bu, why don’t you ask Mi Ya Xing tomorrow?”

Having witnessed Rui Bu Si sitting there for hours, Ya Ya, teasing Ya Ya with duck snacks, couldn’t bear to watch any longer.

During this time, she flipped through many books but didn’t write much.

“I can write!”

No, she absolutely couldn’t ask Mi Ya Xing for help again!

Their brief, superficial friendship was over!

“Then leave it until tomorrow? Lao Tai hasn’t had a class for several days.”

“No, I must finish it today!”

Finishing it today would reward her with one hundred Merit; tomorrow, there would be nothing.

Speaking of which, if it weren’t for these one hundred Merit, she would have originally planned to go to the Magic Warehouse to see what that Magic Mirror was after finishing her good deeds.

Burying her head and continuing to write furiously, halfway through her progress, a plate of cut fruit suddenly appeared in her line of sight, and a blanket was draped over her shoulders.

“Studying also requires you to take care of your health.”

After being stunned for a moment, Rui Bu Si took the fruit, tears welling up in her eyes:

“My dear roommate, how long can your personality usually remain consistent?”

If it could be semi-permanent, that would be even better.

“I don’t know, it’s quite random, sometimes it’s a few days, sometimes it’s months without changing.”

“But Xiao Luo Bu,” Ya Ya patted Rui Bu Si’s head, “If you don’t go to sleep, you might miss a lively event tomorrow~”

“Huh?”

“Tomorrow President Eric and Senior Quan Ba have a boxing match; if President Eric loses, he will resign from his position as Student Council President.”

A boxing match?

In all the information she had gathered, there was no information about Eric boxing.

“It is said that Senior Quan Ba challenged President Eric because of President Eric’s fiancée, Xiao Fu Die.”

Ya Ya’s tone clearly already imagined a love triangle story.

Normally, Rui Bu Si would have already put down her homework at this time.

But not today.

“Let’s talk while we watch the excitement tomorrow.”

One hundred Merit.

That’s enough for her to speak a lot less smoothly.

“Speaking of which, who is the person who isn’t sleeping and disturbing the peace at this late hour?”

The harmonica sound had been playing since she and Ya Ya started talking.

Although it sounded like it was coming from a far distance, she still found it a bit noisy, and more than a little unpleasant.

Perhaps she was a little mentally unstable from studying late tonight; she even felt that this unpleasant sound was somewhat familiar.

Ya Ya shook her head.

Fortunately, the harmonica sound stopped after a short while.

Perhaps someone went to complain about the noise; she could vaguely hear shouting.

The excitement of the boxing match was like fate; Rui Bu Si didn’t get to see it.

On the way, Da Tiantian took her to the Infirmary.

The instrument detected the same result: malnutrition—

Of course, two gold coins!

Enduring it and drinking nutrient solution would be fine, but the gold coins were impossible to give to anyone!

Besides, she couldn’t even take out half a silver coin…

“How could this be?” Adjusting her glasses, Da Tiantian was puzzled by the result displayed on the instrument. “There should be some improvement.”

She looked at Rui Bu Si again; the person sitting on the bed had a completely innocent and unknowing expression.

“Oh dear~ System, it’s over~ We’re going to be taken for research~”

Having chatted with her for several days, Rui Bu Si was fully aware of Da Tiantian’s confidence in her professional abilities.

“Oh dear, if we’re taken for research for a month or so, what will happen to Princess Naiya’s affairs~”

The System remained silent.

Remembering when they first met, this System was very talkative, why is it becoming more and more introverted now?

Its words, however, remain as unsympathetic as always.

After studying with the instrument for a long time, Da Tiantian scanned herself; the result was fine. She scanned Rui Bu Si again:

“Huh? Normal?”

This shouldn’t be the case.

“Could this instrument be broken… Ah, Mi Ya Xing, you’re just in time.”

Mi Ya Xing, who was only entrusted by Director Pa to deliver materials, was dazedly pulled to be examined.

“Have you been healthy recently?”

“Is anything unhealthy?”

He had been quite smooth sailing recently, and after feeling himself, he didn’t feel anything wrong with his body.

Staring at Mi Ya Xing for a while, he looked lively and didn’t seem to have any problems, Da Tiantian tapped the instrument:

“It seems to be really broken?”

How could it show Mi Ya Xing as malnourished?

“Alright, I’ll go find Director Pa↗ right away and get a replacement instrument. Here’s today’s nutrient solution; Rui Bu Si, remember to drink it obediently~”

“Okay, Head Nurse Da Tiantian.”

She would obediently throw it away.

As they cheerfully walked away from the Infirmary, the two remaining people sat and stood for a long time. Rui Bu Si, whose arm was tired, switched the nutrient solution to her other hand:

“Why aren’t you leaving yet?”
