My wife is the stand-in.

For twenty years since her birth, the girl had lived a peaceful life, but suddenly a gust of wind called 'Amanosaki' stirred up a storm.

Why did she chase after him?

It's because Amanosaki ran away.

Why did she come here?

It's because Amanosaki lives here, and no matter what he's going to do, he'll come back.

Why is she able to keep herself firmly tied to this place with such a simple reason?

What filled her heart besides the anxiety of waiting?

'Amanosaki is going crazy for someone else, for that girl named Tohsaka Rin, for that girl who isn't me.'

This sudden realization made her cover her face in astonishment, ashamed that she had come up with such a bizarre thought.

She suddenly jumped up, babbling incoherently, clumsily put the chair back in its place, and stumbled away from the house.

Once she knew her own thoughts, Lin Shuyu could no longer tolerate staying in that room for even a second.

This room, the room that she opened for Amanosaki, the room where she handed the 'key' to Amanosaki.

The scent and traces of that woman are everywhere.

With Amanozaki.

The girl feared that her jealousy would lead her to do something wrong, so she ran away.

She escaped to the garden not far from the door, to this tiny garden where she had been confined since birth in an underground enclosure surrounded by steel, where she had never seen a forest, a starry sky, or any beasts or birds that roamed freely.

The girl sat with her head down, looking dazed and confused.

Her heart was in turmoil, like a lake being stirred up by a typhoon, causing the silt at the bottom to surge up and the trees on the shore to break.

Lin Shuyu felt as if she had been cursed, which made her develop strange feelings for Amanosaki.

'It's very likely he cast the curse! We must break it!'

Lin Shuyu sat for a full hour, repeatedly confirming her guess, before finally heading to the cafeteria for lunch as the park's noon clock struck.

While she was in line, in front of her... or perhaps behind her, someone was holding up their phone, calling out to friends and watching a video, muttering a series of "Holy crap!"

Normally, Lin Shuyu would frown and put on her headphones, but now, she just remained silent, constantly repeating the thought of 'breaking the curse'.

Until that name reappeared, like a persistent demon.

"Wow, this guy is amazing! Does he even dare to use this kind of combat tactic?" someone exclaimed in surprise.

"Mr. Chili misjudged his opponent's temperament. Every year there are such knights-errant who fight like ravenous wolves, completely reckless." Someone whispered their analysis. "What's this guy's name? We should avoid him in future sparring sessions."

"Let me see, it seems to be called... Amanosaki. This just happened, on the fifteenth floor! Holy crap, blood everywhere!"

Upon hearing the name, Lin Shuyu turned her head, silently walked past the group of people, and after leaving the cafeteria, her pace quickened as she took the elevator back to the fifteenth floor.

The idea that took her more than an hour to solidify crumbled the moment she heard "blood flowing everywhere".

"Amanosaki? Who's that... Ah, you mean that mad dog guy who sparred with Mr. Chili? He's unconscious and had to be treated by Saipanto for a while."

The security guard guarding the cordoned-off area adjusted his hat to let the heat escape, and said thoughtfully, "I saw a very beautiful woman carry him onto a stretcher and push him away. Miss Lin, you should go to the hospital on the surface; he should be lying down receiving an IV drip."

The security guard was lamenting things like, "Mr. Chili is so pitiful, his intestines have been cut into several pieces," and "His poop is splattering all over the wall," not noticing that the ghost-like Lin Shuyu had already left.

Lin Shuyu went straight to the hospital as soon as she arrived on the surface. She asked around the wards but couldn't find anyone. She called Li Junzi and JK Girl but got no news either. She only knew that Amber had hurriedly ended his class for the day and left.

So, on a sweltering summer day with temperatures reaching 39 degrees Celsius, the girl was on the phone, sweating profusely, and spinning around in place.

After finally interrogating several branch leaders under the guise of her grandfather, she went straight to the special care ward on the top floor, which led to the scene where she bumped into Amanosaki earlier.

But despite being busy for so long, she didn't even get to say a word to anyone before Nozaki left that day.

Under her great-uncle's wise and tolerant gaze, Lin Shuyu, having figured out what she had done today, finally couldn't control herself. Tears streamed down her face like a broken string of pearls, her eyes instantly reddened, and her jewel-like pupils were covered with a layer of mist.

The girl, tears streaming down her face, sobbed softly, her voice filled with accusation and grievance:

"Grandpa, please, please ask Amanosaki to break the curse. I was wrong, I was really wrong."

The girl had a beautiful voice; even her sobs were as clear as birdsong in the forest.

"I'm not going to think of any way to get back at him anymore. I... I haven't even had a chance to find someone to deal with him yet."

The bald old man, addressed as "Uncle," watched Lin Shuyu's expression shift several times before she finally broke down in tears. He sighed and said, "Just now I thought I was seventy or eighty percent sure, but seeing you like this now, I'm a 100 percent sure. Tell your Uncle honestly, do you like her?"

"Like him?" Lin Shuyu immediately shook her head in defense, "How could I? I only met him a few days ago and brought him to the branch, and he barely spoke. He's a lecher, not only did he hug me, but he also kissed me on the lips... Just now! My great-uncle saw it too, he hugged me as soon as I arrived!"

Seeing that the girl's words were less of an explanation and more of a confirmation of Amanosaki's feelings for her, the bald old man sighed even more as he looked at Lin Shuyu, who was covered in sweat and panting heavily.

He knew that his beloved granddaughter was at the age of puberty and could fall in love with someone at any time.

It was just a coincidence that I ran into that guy named Amanosaki.

He grasped the girl's wrist again and gently shook it:

"My silly girl, still denying it! You're clearly in love!"

Lin Shuyu recalled the first time she saw that young man.

At a time when everyone else retreated, when the knight-errant was buried in the ruins, and when the Eastern Leaf Knight was slacking off, that person stepped forward, raised his fragile fist, and jumped out of the stands.

His eyes shone, and he shouted:

"Amanosaki, the Stand User of [Qunxia Mountain] [Yushan Branch] [Urban Village Hall]".

"I see you!"

She recalled the time when Amanosaki forcibly kissed her and then sparred with Li Junzi, knowing that he was no match for her, yet still daring to fight to the bitter end.

She remembered the way that idiot guy, covered in footprints and handprints, lied and chatted with her in public.

Lin Shuyu then realized that she had developed a liking for Amanosaki ever since she saw his video, a man full of spirit and courage who faced challenges head-on.

That's why she didn't resist the special mission assigned to her at the time, and that's why even after being sexually assaulted, she didn't ask her grandfather to replace her as the special envoy.

This was exactly what she had been longing for.

As spring thunder rumbled across the land, insects stirred the soil amidst the shaking of heaven and earth, gently unfurling their tender bodies in the chilly wind.

This is the Awakening of Insects, when all things awaken.

The young girl's thoughts, awakened by the old man's sharp rebuke, finally shattered her self-deception and delusions, and began to emerge.

The girl finally realized that she liked that person.

She cried out, hugged her great-uncle who was half a head shorter than her, buried her head in the old man's chest, and sobbed like long-awaited spring rain.

Qingniang watched coldly from the sidelines until she heard the girl crying, at which point she rested her head on her hand, feeling a headache coming on.

Although the voice was mostly filled with fear and confusion, the joy hidden within that fear and confusion could not be concealed.

Qingniang glanced at the bewildered man in the vest scratching his head, then smiled wryly at the silent Amber Prince and said:

"What a crime."

-------------------------------------

"Intensive training!"

Rin Tohsaka crossed her legs, her perfectly proportioned legs swaying gently, her high heels dangling from her toes, clapping against the soles of her feet in rhythm.

The culprit, whom Qingniang deemed the one who had committed the "evil deeds," knelt within the magic circle, completely unaware that he had unintentionally set a fire in the heart of a young girl.

He was burning with rage.

At this moment, Rin Tohsaka was wearing red crystal glasses made by magic, had changed into a bodycon mini skirt, and had a shawl simply draped over her shoulders. She was holding a thin black gemstone stick, and there was a dazzling array of instruments and materials on the table.

He looks exactly like a chemistry teacher!

"Rin, what are you doing? Are you cosplaying to add some fun?"

"I was just discharged from the hospital, it's not good to be so stimulating."

As Amanosaki said this, he stared intently at Rin's feet, his mouth dry and a little excited. "So that's why you asked me to go to the clothing store to buy these things earlier?"

Rin Tohsaka's pointer struck the bed with a soft "plop".

“I’ve made myself perfectly clear: intensive training! What do you think I’m doing this for? It’s all because of the new task Amber gave you.”

"Let me be frank, you're not qualified to call yourself a magician at all!"

"This is the only way I can motivate you to study hard for the rest of the day!"

"This is called reward-based teaching!"

Ms. Tohsaka held the pointer in both hands and gently bent it. Her stern, unruly gaze, seen through her glasses, inexplicably took on a lewd quality.

"Good, good, good, intensive training, intensive training." Amanosaki nodded repeatedly.

“But training you in this outfit…it’s hard for me not to get distracted,” he said, fidgeting.

Rin is beautiful, but Rin dressed as a mature woman and disguised as a teacher is even more beautiful.

Her pride blended seamlessly into the strictness of the teacher's role, yet she lacked any sense of superiority, instead exuding a delicate charm.

Such exquisite beauty exists in this world!

Amanosaki slightly raised his buttocks.

"Sit down!"

The pointer swept across Amanosaki's head, narrowly missing him by just a hair's breadth.

Rin gently shifted her legs, her 30-dan black stockings covering her entire legs. Compared to pantyhose, they lacked a bit of girlishness, but possessed an infinite allure and mature charm.

Amanosaki felt a little hot in her nose.

Rin Tohsaka adjusted her glasses and said in a deliberately low, yet deeply captivating voice:

"If you remember what I say carefully, complete the teaching tasks, and pass the exam, the teacher will give you a reward."

Rin's foot, which had been resting on the ground, slipped off her high heels and gently rubbed against Amanosaki's knee.

Amanosaki exhaled two jets of air, his blood pressure soared, his heart spun like a turbine, and his brain became active under the stimulation of the high-pressure, oxygen-rich blood.

"Come on! I'm ready!"
