My first reaction was to smash my phone in anger!
After seeing the news about Kaguya Shinomiya, I felt even more like throwing my phone!
That's outrageous!
He not only got on the bus to go on his autumn trip and completely forgot about her, but he also made her stay behind at the JS Research Institute, constantly on guard against people from her family coming to inquire about her situation.
The worst part is that Kaguya Shinomiya wants to go to Kanagawa for a soak in the hot springs, so she doesn't want to come back that night!
Hayasaka, the tool, loves a sudden, throbbing pain between her eyebrows.
However, it seemed there was no other way. Since Kaguya Shinomiya was determined to do this, she sighed softly, took out a small mirror, and quickly tidied her makeup.
Turn around and go study JavaScript!
……
...
"Who else hasn't arrived yet?"
"Now we'll begin the final roll call. If anyone is still absent, they're out of the running for this fall trip."
"Also, the bus will depart on time in 5 minutes!"
On the playground of Shuji Academy, buses from other classes had already started moving and left the playground, but Class 2F had not yet moved.
Hiratsuka Shizuka is conducting the final headcount.
As for the mock exam results, the school ultimately showed some leniency, announcing that the results would be announced to the entire school after the fall trip.
Of course, the most likely reason for this "merciful hand" is that they did well on this mock exam.
At least among the six schools in the six-school cohort, it is far ahead of the other schools; otherwise, given the iron-fisted approach of the Shuji Academy Board of Directors, the autumn trip might have been canceled.
"Luo Chen!"
"Luo Chen!"
"Luo Chen?!"
Hiratsuka Shizuka called Luo Chen's name three times in a row, just like the previous roll calls. It seems that Luo Chen didn't come!
"Luo Chen, are you really not planning to participate in this autumn trip?"
In the classroom, Yui Yuigahama looked around anxiously, but unfortunately, she couldn't find Luo Chen. She was quite disappointed.
Although she didn't have any special relationship with Luo Chen, she always felt that if Luo Chen didn't participate in the autumn trip, everyone would miss out on a lot of fun on the trip.
Miura Yumiko and Totsuka Ayaka shared the same thought, and both subconsciously searched for Luo Chen in the crowd.
Yukino Yukinoshita came today.
Although she wasn't fully recovered from her illness, it didn't diminish the slight dimming in her eyes as she silently cursed herself inwardly:
"What a shameful guy. He told me just the night before last that he absolutely had to go on the fall trip, but today he's not going."
Her gaze was clear, carrying a hint of disappointment that was hard to describe, but it quickly returned to its calm and serene state.
It was as if everything outside of her was irrelevant; she didn't interact with anyone and showed no intention of speaking.
"Didn't come?"
Hiratsuka Shizuka, who had been called out, rolled her eyes. After waiting in vain, she couldn't figure out what Luo Chen was up to this time, so she decided to skip it and give up completely.
Just then, the phone rang.
"Feel sorry."
Hiratsuka Shizuka frowned. When she saw that the person on the phone was Luo Chen, she felt an instinctive resistance. After all, none of her phone calls with Luo Chen had been pleasant.
But with so many students watching below, Hiratsuka Shizuka tightened her grip on her phone slightly, then loosened it, determined that if Luo Chen dared to slip up again...
Heh! Kill!!
"Hello? Is this Teacher Jing?"
It was Luo Chen's unique way of greeting people.
Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded and, with the authority of a homeroom teacher, asked, "Luo Chen, what's wrong with you? If you weren't going to participate in the autumn trip, why didn't you ask for leave in advance?"
"Who said I'm not participating?" Luo Chen's question left Hiratsuka Shizuka speechless.
Hiratsuka Shizuki asked with a laugh, "You weren't present once during the five roll calls, yet you said you wanted to participate. I don't care. We'll set off as soon as the last roll call is over."
On the phone, Luo Chen coughed awkwardly and said, "Um, I'm sorry, my stomach hurts and I'm running to the toilet like crazy."
Hiratsuka Shizuka was silent for a while, then asked, "You can't expect the entire second-year F class to wait for you to finish using the restroom, can you?"
"Of course not."
Luo Chen was still able to laugh and calmly said, "Teacher Jing, you just go ahead. I know the destination. I'll rent a car and go there myself. I'll call you when I get there so you and the other students can meet up."
0 ··Requesting flowers····· ···
Hiratsuka Shizuka frowned, worried about Luo Chen's safety, but then she thought about it again. This guy was frighteningly smart, almost as cunning as her former student, Yukinoshita Haruno.
If you're worried about Luo Chen getting hurt, you should be more concerned about the safety of the bad guys who are planning to make this kid suffer.
"Alright, that's settled then. Remember to call me as soon as you get there. Kanagawa is not Adachi, after all, it's completely unfamiliar to you."
Hiratsuka Shizuka ultimately offered a brief reminder.
"Okay, thank you for your concern, Teacher Jing... Oh no! Here we go again! I have to hang up now, goodbye!"
As Luo Chen spoke, his voice suddenly became urgent, and the phone call abruptly ended.
..... .... 0
Hiratsuka Shizuka's face darkened.
What did this guy do last night or this morning? He was in such a hurry. If I'm not mistaken, he probably went to the toilet again.
After putting away her phone, Hiratsuka Shizuka continued taking attendance. After counting all the students, she confirmed that all the students in Class 2-F were present, except for Luo Chen and Shinomiya Kaguya.
After everyone boarded the bus, Hiratsuka Shizuka said, "Luo Chen just called and said he will still participate in this autumn trip, but he won't be on the same bus as us. Okay, that's all."
"Eh? Really?"
Yui Yuigahama, who couldn't hide her emotions the most, was the first to show her surprise and joy, eagerly calling out to Ayaka Totsuka, "Ayaka, Ayaka!"
"Hehehe~"
"Will the transfer student be on the fall trip? That's awesome! I'm ready to sneak a peek at him and Hayama-kun soaking in the hot springs... First-hand information!"
Hina Ebina adjusted her glasses, excitedly covering her face with her sketchbook, revealing a silly smile typical of fujoshi (female fans of male-male romance).
Yumiko Miura cast a helpless glance at him, but as she looked away, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
Because of the aloof and unapproachable atmosphere of the last row of the bus, no one, regardless of gender, dared to sit next to Yukino Yukinoshita.
Her gaze was clear as she looked down at the extracurricular book, "Human Nature: The Nature of Good and Evil," which lay flat on her beautiful legs.
It seemed like she only glanced up casually before quickly looking down again and continuing to read this renowned psychology classic, famous both domestically and internationally.
Chapter 206 The Black Cloak and the Screaming Chicken? For Me?!
"So, we're just going to take a taxi to Kanagawa like this?"
In the speeding taxi, Kaguya Shinomiya watched intently as Luo Chen hung up the phone and asked him this question.
"What else? With your classmates?"
Luo Chen rolled his eyes, and before Kaguya Shinomiya could say anything, he continued, "Don't dream about it. Although you have a chance to secretly participate in the autumn trip because of my invitation, remember the two most important words in this sentence: secretly!"
“That’s true.” Kaguya Shinomiya subtly withdrew her gaze and said softly, “If we’re with everyone, it’s too easy to be exposed.”
Luo Chen shrugged. Good to know.
Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly remembered something and asked with regret, "So, even if we go to Hakone Onsen in Kanagawa, I won't be able to be with everyone in '540'."
"Of course." Luo Chen nodded.
A hint of melancholy lingered in Kaguya Shinomiya's eyes.
What kind of autumn trip is this?
In the end, isn't he still all alone over there?
Luo Chen noticed that Kaguya Shinomiya had fallen silent. He tilted his head and glanced at her, only to find her head bowed, her expression slightly somber, lost in thought.
But the disappointment on that slightly cold, pretty face was undeniable.
"Hmm...actually, it's not that I can't be with everyone." Luo Chen hesitated for a moment before speaking softly.
Kaguya Shinomiya smiled nonchalantly and said, "It's okay, President~, I know that if I'm with my classmates, my identity will be exposed, and my secret participation in the autumn trip will also be exposed, which will have a very bad impact on both of us."
“So, we can try not to expose ourselves.” Luo Chen reached out to Kaguya Shinomiya.
"you!!"
Kaguya Shinomiya was startled and reached out to break Luo Chen's wrist. Why did this guy suddenly want to act like a hooligan?
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and acted swiftly, but Luo Chen was even faster, snatching the backpack back before she could make a move.
At the same time, he gave her a questioning look.
