Lin Qi was immediately struck by how impolite the two of them were to run away without even giving him a glance.
Afterwards, Hisako resumed her role as secretary, and after arranging everything, the three of them sat in the car.
Lin Qi sat in the center, with the other two on his left and right. At that moment, he asked a question.
"I'm a little curious. You guys have to take a bus to get from your dorm to the teaching building. Don't you think there's something wrong with that?"
Lin Qi was genuinely confused at this moment. What school requires a special bus ride from the dormitory to the teaching building?
I just happened to encounter this bizarre situation here, and couldn't help but chime in with a comment.
Erina didn't find anything wrong with his comments, since the place was indeed huge, especially for a school. In fact, it was incredibly large, as it was built on an entire mountain, unlike the place on his side.
"Look how big this place is, and our dorm isn't in any of those normal places. It's in the back hills for the sake of quiet."
"The teaching building is in front, so there's no problem taking the bus, okay? Don't you see how far apart they are?"
"So the only option is to take a car."
Lin Qi knew that what the other party said made sense, but there was one thing he didn't understand.
"I understand the logic of what you're saying, but there's something I don't understand: aren't you afraid of encountering danger by putting your dorm rooms there?"
"You know, this is reality. Can you be sure there aren't any bad people around here?"
"Especially since you two live in a place like that, aren't you afraid someone will sneak in with you two girls here?"
Lin Qi felt something was off. The two girls lived in the back mountain. Although there were other residents, there didn't seem to be many people. Wasn't he afraid of danger under these circumstances? Especially since these two were not ugly and had status, he wouldn't be surprised if something terrible happened.
"If I were in a place like this, with a little less scruples and some power, I would have already put you two in a prison play."
At this moment, Lin Qi used himself as an example, which surprised the two of them. They didn't expect him to use their own situation as an example. However, although they knew he meant well, the two of them were quite knowledgeable and confident about the situation in their own area.
“I know what you mean by that, but our security is top-notch, not some half-baked job. So there’s absolutely no need to worry. There are surveillance cameras everywhere, and all sorts of people patrolling around.”
Erina was quite confident when she said this, after all, such a thing would never happen in her own home, especially since she lived here herself. How could she let such a young lady be subjected to such a thing?
"You're only good at dealing with ordinary people, right?"
Lin Qi said that this configuration is at most for an ordinary person.
...
P.S.: Please, handsome guys and beautiful girls, add this to your favorites, recommend it, share it, and give it flowers! Please do everything you can! If you haven't added it to your favorites yet, please do so! Thank you so much! I'm bowing down to you all!
Chapter 728 Those points were wasted.
Erina was speechless after hearing the example someone gave. Did this guy even know how to give an example? You know, if it really was the special situation this guy was talking about, even the strongest security force wouldn't be of any use.
"You're trying to say that it wasn't an ordinary person who attacked me, but have you considered this question? If it really was that kind of person, what way could I fight back? At least under normal circumstances, all I could do was lie down and accept it."
"I even learned some things later."
"So if I really encounter that kind of situation, all I can do is lie flat, and I'm not kidding."
"After all, my family is quite well-off, but only my grandfather and a few others are capable of making dishes that involve that kind of cooking. But I can see now that they can only play around with weaklings at best. They can't resist the truly powerful ones at all. So, in this situation, the only thing I can do is to give up."
After hearing what the other party said, Lin Qi realized that he had something to say but couldn't say it. It seemed that the other party's situation was really like that. Although they had new dishes and could do many things for offerings, the problem was how to put it? The other party's chef was quite incompetent, so it was impossible to make that kind of request under these circumstances.
Thinking about this makes me feel inexplicably a little embarrassed.
"It seems that's indeed the case. How should I put it, the only truly useful chef in your family is probably your grandfather. The rest aren't very high-ranking; they can only play around with some small gadgets at most. And it seems that the family that actually makes offerings and signs contracts with you is strangely unbelievable. What's going on here?"
"I don't see anything in your house that's been contracted or made offerings. Even if there's no contract, you should at least make offerings to protect your home, but I don't see anything like that."
"Given your grandfather's abilities, he should be able to find them. Something is better than nothing, and nothing is better than nothing."
At this moment, Lin Qi's tone was full of doubt.
I hadn't thought about this issue before, but now that we've talked about this security force, I've discovered such a serious loophole; it just doesn't seem very scientific.
Erina was also completely baffled by this question, since she had never thought about it before. Now that it seemed to be true, it was a bit strange. She would ask herself about it another day.
"I'm not very clear about this matter."
"After all, it was only after I joined the chat group that Grandpa started talking to me about some things. Before that, I was a complete newbie, okay? So please don't ask me that question."
At that moment, Erina shook her head without hesitation, indicating that she really didn't know the reason.
Lin Qi thought for a moment and immediately decided to ignore it.
"Forget it, never mind. This has nothing to do with me. To put it bluntly, with me here, I really don't think anything can hurt you. The jewelry I gave you will make you invincible in terms of defense here."
Lin Qi spoke confidently at this moment, and the other party did not refute him. Strictly speaking, Zhejiang Guoshun's products really made him invincible here.
Erina indicated that she was referring to defensive capabilities.
"I have to say, what you gave us is basically a blow here. But there's a time limit. Don't you think there's something wrong with that?"
"And it seems like there's nothing about output that would be inconsistent with your identity."
At this moment, Erina started giving frantic hints, saying she wanted to get me an advanced version.
Ideally, you should have a balanced offense and defense, allowing you to do whatever you want, while your opponent is playing a losing game.
Lin Qi understood the other party's implication, and felt quite helpless about their behavior. He hadn't expected them to play this trick too. But how should he put it? It wasn't that he didn't want to help with some things.
"I'm telling you, you need to understand that I'm not good at this. I told you this before I met you. I can only turn these things into something truly useful and permanent if I can get real, usable materials. The problem is, what kind of worlds have I been to to get these materials? Even the upgraded version you're using now was brought back from A Certain Magical Index."
"That world is also the world where I can access and obtain the best materials. I can't really buy them from chat groups, can I? What I have now is enough. Buying from chat groups would be a real waste. The ones I bought last time were all inferior goods."
Lin Qi thought about the difference between what he bought in the chat group and what he got back from the movie A Certain Magical Index.
The fact that it was sold at such an exorbitant price in the chat group makes me feel like I've been ripped off terribly, a truly humiliating experience.
Erina noticed that this person's expression had turned sour, as if he had been tricked and was filled with regret upon recalling the incident.
Did you lose a lot of points back then?
Erina dared not do anything reckless at this moment, and instead spoke in a gloating tone, looking rather puzzled.
Normally, it wouldn't matter if he did something reckless, but this time it seems like this guy is really losing out big time, so it's not good for him to do something reckless. After all, the reason he's losing so much is to provide them with enough security.
So it's really not a good time to do something reckless.
At this moment, Lin Qi pretended to have a toothache and spoke up:
"I used all the points I earned from my first mission to buy the kind of products that weren't even enough to go around. How much did I lose? They were all low-quality products."
Erina:. . .
If Erina remembers correctly, this guy had quite a few points from his first mission, and he ended up buying them all?
And if you add a sentence after that, it's still not enough; then things are getting a bit serious.
"No wonder you have this attitude; you've been scammed a lot."
Erina understood why this guy looked so bad. After all, those points could make an ordinary person very powerful, but to be so powerful only to be scammed and lose everything was just absurd.
"So let's not talk about that. It was just a waste of my intelligence. After all, I was a newbie back then, and I didn't know any better. I got scammed."
Erina then decisively stopped the conversation.
Soon they arrived at the teaching building, and Lin Qi sensed something was wrong.
...
P.S.: Please, handsome guys and beautiful girls, add this to your favorites, recommend it, share it, and give it flowers! Please do everything you can! If you haven't added it to your favorites yet, please do so! Thank you so much! I'm bowing down to you all!
Chapter 729 Erina: Grandpa ruined me!
After getting out of the car and arriving at the teaching building, Lin Qi felt something was off for some reason, and then glanced at the arrogant girl next to him.
“Tell me honestly, how many people did your grandfather invite to watch? It’s definitely more than the 10 good-for-nothings I mentioned. Ugh, no, I mean, 10 including you, not counting the 9 good-for-nothings.”
Erina:. . .
When Erina heard this guy categorize her as a loser, she couldn't help but glare at him fiercely, though she herself wasn't entirely sure how many people she had offended.
"Don't ask me that question. I have no idea how I've spent the last two days. Don't you have any idea?"
At this moment, Erina also felt empty without hesitation. Had this guy forgotten how she had been spending her days lately? Did he think it was appropriate for him to talk to her about this under these circumstances?
Lin Qi felt slightly embarrassed after hearing this. The other person's words reminded him that they had been with him for some time, so it was normal that they didn't know what had happened.
"Ahem, sorry, sorry, I forgot about that. You've been with me these past two days, which means your grandfather arranged and took care of everything. I have to say, that guy is quite cunning."
Erina didn't quite understand what this meant.
"This building is actually quite quiet, but there's one place with a lot of noise, meaning it's all piled up in one spot."
"So what are those voices doing here? They can't possibly be here to play, right? So there's only one truth: they're all here to attend class."
Erina:. . .
Erina wasn't surprised that this person knew how many people were inside. After all, this guy claimed to be an ordinary person, but he still retained some extraordinary abilities. So it was perfectly normal for him to know how many people were inside. However, it seemed her grandfather had broken his promise to this guy, which gave her a slightly awkward feeling. It wasn't what they had agreed on. What was her grandfather up to, or was she secretly thinking?
"There might be a little too many people, but for you, one or two is fine, one is not too many, one is not too few, don't worry about these details."
At this point, Erina had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell someone not to worry about those details.
After hearing what the other person said, Lin Qi glanced at them. Your meaning is very clear. At this point, the other person could only pretend to be dead and act as if they couldn't see it. After all, things had already come to this point. His grandfather must have called other people over. It was not good to bother them in that case. He could only have a good talk with his grandfather about this issue later.
Of course, the most important thing is that I can't take the blame. Based on my understanding of this bastard, once I take the blame, just wait and see. I'll have to be prepared to take the blame for whatever problems arise. I can't take that burden, and I don't want to.
So at this moment, this is the only way to resolve this matter: we'll deal with it later.
Looking at the other person's appearance, Lin Qi seriously suspected that this guy was trying to shift the blame to his grandfather, even though it was the grandfather who should have taken the blame in the first place.
"Alright, I'm too lazy to talk about this anymore. But I really want to tell your grandpa that some things are better left unsaid once they've agreed on them. If you're going to do something reckless, you should tell me beforehand. It's only because I have it myself that I don't care. If it's not one of our own, I'll see if I don't make things worse for him. How dare he play these games with me? Secretly breaking the promises we made."
Lin Qi spoke in a helpless tone, without any anger. The other man wasn't stupid either; he knew very well that the reason this guy wasn't angry was because of him. Instead, he was just saying what he thought was right, reminding his grandfather to pay attention to the matter. He didn't really intend to do anything; it was almost like a joke, implying that there was no problem, but it was just necessary to mention it beforehand.
Erina looked at the school building, then glanced at someone and said earnestly:
"Don't worry, this will never happen again. This time it was really Grandpa's fault, and I will have a serious talk with him about it."
"Alright, you should know that I'm a very easy person to talk to. At least for you guys, I'm basically always willing to help, except for some excessive requests. So just tell me clearly, don't play games with me or suddenly cause trouble. I hate this kind of thing the most. If you don't have the strength and ability, you might get screwed over."
0Request flowers
When Lin Qi mentioned this, he thought of the term "pig teammate." 99.9% of those who do that kind of thing are pig teammates, creating trouble for their teammates.
Erina was quite helpless after hearing this, because she knew this was a problem. She hated things going against the plan and appointments when she worked, so she was definitely on his side in this situation.
Erina secretly thought to herself that her grandfather had gone too far, actually doing something like this. He had secretly called more people over without even informing them.
Just as the group was discussing, the other person came out from inside. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the three of them looking at him with a strange expression.
Senzaemon Nakiri wanted to greet him, but he didn't say it. After all, the look in his eyes was a bit strange. Was there something on his face?
"Erina, Mr. Hayashi, is there something on my face?"
Senzaemon Nakiri was completely bewildered at this moment, wondering why he was being looked at like that.
Erina didn't stand on ceremony at this point and spoke up directly.
"Grandpa, how many people come to your class?"
Erina asked the question at that moment, and the other person didn't immediately catch on.
"The Ten Outstanding Students are some of the students I consider excellent, as well as some lecturers who come to teach when they have free time."
"Upon hearing this, Chef Dojima dropped everything he was doing and rushed over."
...

Chapter 730 Erina: We're doomed
Senzaemon Nakiri was talking about someone inside who had forgotten something and claimed he hadn't realized there was a problem. After finishing, he noticed the strange looks people were giving him and was a little confused. What was going on with those looks? Had he said something wrong?
Erina kindly offered a reminder at that moment.
"Grandpa, have you forgotten how many people agreed on to attend the lecture? Don't you think this number is a bit too many?"
Senzaemon Nakiri was taken aback by these words, then asked in return:
"Erina, didn't you say so?"
Erina:?
Erina had a big question mark on her head. She hadn't said anything, but why did she feel like things were going in a bad direction? Could it be that she was the one with the problem?
"Grandpa, can you please explain yourself clearly? Is there something I might be involved in this?"
Erina was a little confused after hearing the interview. Did she know about this? She didn't think so, did she? But why did they say they hadn't mentioned it, and specifically mention her? It couldn't be that she had forgotten something, could it?
