Practical teaching: Starting from the soul traveling through Dragon Garden

Chapter 487 Senior Sister from the Mountain
The four walked side by side on the path back to their dormitory.

The atmosphere was somewhat eerie. To the left of Ryuen was Horikita, to the right was Ichinose, and to the right of Ichinose was Shiranami.

Because Shiraha kept talking to Ichinose about random things, Ryuen and Horikita couldn't get a word in edgewise, which left them feeling left out.

This situation continued until the four of them arrived at the dormitory entrance.

"Goodbye."

Horikita waved to Ichinose.

"Fanbo, when did you become friends with Horikita? Why would she greet you first?"

Ichinose put her finger to her lips: "I don't remember when we became friends. My relationship with Horikita-san has never been too bad."

Ryuen nodded. Ichinose was the kind of person who was always nice, so it was possible for Horikita to become friends with her.

Ichinose's attention was drawn to Ryuen, and Shiranami was a little jealous, but she dared not compete with Ryuen, as that would make Ichinose dislike her and might even be punished by Ryuen.

Reluctantly, Bai Bo knew he couldn't be a third wheel any longer.

"Then I'll head back too. Goodbye, Honami."

Shiraha waved goodbye to Ichinose.

Under the bright lights, only Ryuen and Ichinose remained. Although it was still early, there were not many people around.

"Does Ryuen-kun like Chihiro?"

Ichinose suddenly asked Ryuen out of the blue.

"..."

Ryuen placed his large hand on Ichinose's forehead: "What's wrong? Do you have a fever? Why are you saying such strange things?"

It may seem like a denial, but Ichinose has spent so much time with Ryuen that she knows very well that Ryuen is avoiding the question. If Ryuen really had no feelings for Shiranami, she would have answered directly that she didn't like him, instead of asking Ichinose what was wrong.

Ichinose reached out and pinched Ryuen's nose: "Here's a little punishment for you."

After saying that, he turned his back, walked five or six meters, then turned around and smiled, saying, "Bye-bye, see you tomorrow."

Ryuen waved his hand as well. It wasn't that Ryuen didn't want to give Ichinose a definite answer to Chihiro Shiranami's question, but rather that he himself wasn't sure how to express it.

It's definitely not a matter of disliking her. After all, Bai Bo has done so many things for him, is very cute, and has never done anything to offend him. Long Yuan has no reason to dislike her.

But can we say that Ryuen likes Shiraha?
Before today, Bai Bo was just a cute little girl in Long Yuan's eyes. But today, he discovered that she could sing and dance, which added to her charm. Even so, in Long Yuan's eyes, she was just a cute little girl who could sing and dance. There was no romantic attraction between a boy and a girl at the moment, but Long Yuan had a possessive feeling towards her.

It was this unusual possessiveness that made Ryuen question his own feelings, and also led him not to give Ichinose a direct answer.

Is Ichinose's sense of smell just too keen? Or is it just a coincidence?
Ryuen wasn't sure, but Ichinose didn't seem particularly angry, so Ryuen didn't take it to heart. As for Shiranami's feelings, she'd just let things take their course.

Longyuan didn't go back to the dormitory because she had already received a message from her senior on her phone.

"The person who framed Guilongyuan is in the mountains. Ask her directly if you have any questions."

At the end of the message was a phone number.

Long Yuan dialed directly: "Moshi Moshi".

"Excuse me, who are you?"

"Long Yuanxiang, the current student council president and class monitor of Class 2-A."

Longyuan introduced itself.

"I'm sorry, you must have dialed the wrong number. I don't know you."

"I didn't dial the wrong number, Senior Sister Shanzhong. If you're free, how about having a coffee with me?" Normally, if Longyuan said this, she would definitely be considered a nuisance and have the call hung up. So when Longyuan identified herself, she made a point of saying that she was the student council president. That way, when she asked the other person to meet her, the other person would have to consider whether she had something important to talk about.

"Isn't this a bit late?"

At 8 p.m., the senior student from the mountain school was politely refusing, but Longyuan didn't care at all.

"If you feel it's too late to come out for coffee, I can come to your dorm to have some hot water. After all, there are some things I need to talk to you about, and they're very important."

Longyuan rejected his senior's refusal and offered two options: either she would come out of the mountains for coffee, or Longyuan would go to her dormitory for hot water; in any case, the two of them had to meet.

It seems like there are two options, but in reality, for someone in the mountains, the only option is to come out for coffee.

"Then let's have coffee instead."

"Okay, I'll wait for you downstairs in the dormitory."

"Wait for me a moment while I change my clothes and come downstairs."

Since he was unsure what important matter Longyuan wanted to discuss, Yamanaka decided, after some thought, to go downstairs and meet Longyuan.

Although Longyuan had never met the senior from the mountain school and had no idea what she looked like, the senior who had just come out of the elevator and was looking around was too easy to recognize. Longyuan waved to her, and she ran over.

"Sorry for the wait."

The senior student was quite polite and didn't seem like the type to frame others, but appearances can be deceiving. Long Yuan waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and then led the senior student from the mountain school to the vending machine.

Two bottles of MAX coffee rolled down, and Longyuan handed one to the senior student from the mountain school.

"This is the coffee I bought for you."

Yama was clearly a little dazed. Being invited out by boys was not uncommon for her, but this was the first time a boy had asked her out for coffee from a vending machine.

The senior student from the mountain chuckled and opened her coffee: "Thank you, junior."

"The senior doesn't seem like a bad person."

Because of Shan Zhong's laughter, the sense of distance between the two lessened considerably, and Long Yuan naturally started chatting with her.

"Junior, you do seem a bit mischievous."

The coffee in my hand was sweet. Drinking coffee at this hour meant I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight, but even so, I drank it anyway.

"I'm not just someone who looks bad, I also do bad things."

Long Yuan revealed a sly expression.

"I don't believe it. Junior, you are the student council president and a role model for the students. How could you do something bad?"

The senior student from the mountain school smiled as she drank her coffee.

"Student council presidents can do bad things too. The previous president, Nagumo, did a lot of bad things. You should know that, senior."

At this point, Yamanaka's expression froze, and he glanced to the side: "How could that be? Chairman Nagumo is a very outstanding person."

"Oh? So that means someone else instructed you to frame Kiryuin Fuka?"

Longyuan's expression turned serious. Shanzhong wanted to retreat, but it was clear that he couldn't escape at all.

"No, no, it was Nagumo who ordered me to do it."

"Ah, but you just said that the student council president is a role model for students, and that Nagumo is an excellent person. Is he so excellent that he ordered you to do bad things?"

Shan Zhong lowered his head, intending to remain silent and play the quail under the pressure from Long Yuan.
