Li Nian called Isayama as planned and told her that she wanted to invite her over for dinner and asked if she was free. She was very interested in where to go and what to eat. When she mentioned the name of the self-service barbecue restaurant mentioned by Senior Kamiigusa, Isayama's voice became excited and he immediately replied that he would be there soon. He hung up Li Nian's phone before he could even mention that he was bringing people from Sakurasou to have dinner with him.
Sakurasou doesn't have a very good reputation in the school. Li Nian originally felt it necessary to inform her. If she had any concerns and didn't want to come, she could be invited alone at another time. But now Isayama has agreed. Li Nian thought about it and felt that the people here were normal except Kamiigusa. Kamiigusa was a little crazy, but he was not a bad person who was difficult to get along with. Isayama hung up the phone in a hurry and he probably had left, so Li Nian was too lazy to call him and explain to her again.
After notifying Isayama, Li Nian thought of Amami again. Inviting his roommate and Isayama to dinner was a matter of moral obligation. Since it had already been turned into a dinner party, it would be ok to invite a friend as well, so he also called there.
When Li Nian started talking to An Yi about the dinner party, he explained that there would be other people. The otaku immediately became unhappy after hearing that. Li Nian didn't have much hope from the tone, but he still continued to explain that the people having dinner together were from Sakurasou. But when An Yi heard that they were from Sakurasou, he suddenly became excited.
"So, Kamiigusa-senpai will be here too!"
"Eh? Ah, that's right..."
"I'll go, I'll go! Please let me go with you! Where is the place?"
An Yi changed his words and simply agreed. Li Nian didn't understand his change of heart, so he still told her the place first. He replied that he would come right away.
After hanging up the phone, Li Nian glanced at Kamiigusa and finally remembered that she was an animation producer who once independently created an excellent short animation with over a million hits. She then understood why Amaki changed his statement.
In this way, the number of people for the dinner was finalized.
Chapter 94: The Dining Table is Like a Battlefield
Led by Kamiigusa, who walked in front with a heroic and confident look like the master, everyone soon arrived at their destination.
Li Nian saw from afar that Jianshan was already standing at the street corner waiting at the door, playing with his mobile phone. He actually arrived earlier than them.
"Isayama."
When they got closer, Li Nian called her and she noticed him. She looked up with a smile, but her eyes first met Shang Jingcao who was jumping in front of the team. Her smile froze on her face immediately.
Li Nian was finding her expression strange when she heard Shang Jingcao shouting excitedly.
"Oh? Oh oh oh oh! It's Huang Quan's dear!"
Kamiigusa ran over, and Isayama subconsciously wanted to turn around and run, but he stopped, turned back stiffly, and gave a stiff smile.
"Misaki..."
"Hey."
Ueigusa pounced on Isayama and hugged her, smiling: "Captured successfully! Why is Xiao Huangquan here?"
"I wanted to ask the same thing..." Jianshan pushed her away with difficulty and looked at Li Nian who was walking forward. His expression was obviously asking "What's going on?"
"I want to ask that too... Isayama, do you know Kamiigusa-senpai?"
Before Isayama could even open his mouth to speak, Kamiigusa had already answered, "Yogan is my classmate! We're also good friends!"
It is easy to understand that they are classmates. It seems that these two third-year students are in the same class by chance. However, they are good friends... Li Nian looked at Isayama. She smiled bitterly. Obviously, there was something hidden. Li Nian narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't ask any more questions here and turned to Kanda and others.
"Let me introduce you. This is Jianshan Huangquan, the friend I mentioned before who is coming. Another one should be on the way."
"It's the one who often comes to our class to look for people..."
Kanda and Aoyama looked at each other. They didn't seem to be completely unfamiliar with Isayama, but they still greeted Isayama first, politely called him "Senior Isayama", and introduced themselves. At this time, Shiina hadn't said anything yet, so Kanda gently pushed her and whispered, "Shiina, say hello."
Shiina finally reacted, tilted his head, and whispered "Yellow Spring?"
"Wait, Shiina, you call me by my first name right away..." Kanda wanted to say that this was impolite, but Isayama stopped him with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. I also prefer people to call me by my first name."
"I'm sorry, Shiina is just that kind of person..."
"Shiina-san, eh? Hello."
"……Hello."
"Sasa, don't just stand there like idiots, come in." Shang Jingcao urged hurriedly and ran into the store first.
Jianshan winked at Li Nian, and Li Nian immediately understood.
"Kamiigusa is right. Let's all go in first."
He pushed everyone to walk in front, but he fell behind. Isayama caught up with him and walked side by side. They deliberately slowed down their pace, kept a distance from the people in front of them, and began to whisper.
"What's going on?" Isayama asked.
"You hung up the phone so decisively that I didn't even have time to tell you that I turned it into a dinner party. Don't you like it?"
"That's not the case... I'm wondering how you got involved with Misaki."
"You're asking that... because I live in Sakurasou, too."
“…” It was the first time that Jianshan heard this, but he quickly understood and nodded in understanding.
"It seems like you don't get along well with Senior Kamiigusa? Don't you like her?" Li Nian asked.
"It's not what you think." Isayama shook his head and explained with a bitter expression: "I know Misaki is a good person, and we have known each other for such a long time that we have a good relationship... The problem is that Misaki has almost discovered that I am an exorcist, so I am a little afraid of her."
Li Nian was shocked: "What?"
"You see, I often ask for leave, don't I? This started when I transferred in. Everyone in my class knows about it. I used the excuse that my relative was seriously ill and needed care. No one else asked too much, but Misaki dug into it. Do you know what? This person said something like [It feels like the common method of hiding one's identity in anime. Could it be that Yomizu's true identity is actually the legendary exorcist!], and he began to doubt my identity."
Li Nian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "...She was joking, right? An accidental hit?"
"The problem is that this person is not joking, she really doubts this..."
"...It's really like Misaki-senpai's style. It's a blessing in disguise for her."
Isayama recalled the past: "Since then, I have been entangled by Misaki, and many flaws have been exposed until now... You don't know, this person is really too perceptive in unnecessary places, I am really afraid that she will see through me completely one day."
Li Nian actually knew that Senior Kamiigusa was too sensitive in unnecessary places... Isayama was also inexplicably entangled by aliens. Li Nian gave him a sympathetic look: "You are also having a hard time."
"What a bad fate..." Jianshan showed a sad and angry expression, and decided to turn his grief and anger into strength, staring at Li Nian: "It's all your fault! I will definitely eat you out of money!"
It sounds like Isayama doesn't intend to go home because of such a small matter. Li Nian smiled indifferently.
"Let's not talk about whether it's my fault or not. This is a self-service barbecue restaurant. It's a talent of yours if you can eat your way out of the restaurant."
"That's right." Isayama chuckled, "Let's go in."
From the outside, it looked like a luxurious and high-end restaurant. The inside was also beautifully decorated and clean with a spacious space. Li Nian saw that the environment was pretty good, and his slightly anxious heart relaxed. Although Kamiigusa was nervous, he didn't seem to cheat them. After telling the waiter that there were seven people here, including An Yi who was coming, he was taken to a large private room.
After sitting down, Li Nian learned a little bit and found out that the consumption model here is to enjoy self-service of different dishes in different grades, which are divided into two thousand, three thousand and five thousand per person. Of course, the more money you pay, the more dishes you can enjoy. Qingshan wanted to say something after hearing this, but Li Nian glanced at her and before she could speak, he directly told the waiter to just charge five thousand for seven people.
Shiina and Kamiigusa seemed to have no concept of money at all, and had already picked up their electronic devices to discuss something.
"It's too expensive, classmate Li Nian, for you alone..." Qingshan didn't have time to stop him and seemed a little panicked. Li Nian said he would treat them, but the cost for seven people was 35,000, which was a bit too high for a high school student.
"Just eat well once in a while." Li Nian didn't want to dwell on this disappearance, and shrugged: "Today Qingshan, you are one of the protagonists, and this is also a welcome party for you. Don't think too much, just be happy and eat and drink well."
He turned to Isayama again.
"And I also have to express my gratitude to Isayama-senpai, so of course I have to give her something high-end as a reward."
Isayama was browsing on the terminal that was handed to him. He looked up blankly when he heard this: "Thank me?"
"I got a job recently." Li Nian said with a smile: "I got paid today, and I thought of you first."
Isayama understood immediately, gave him a meaningful look, and grinned, "I see, then you have to treat me."
Their conversation was like a riddle, and the listeners were confused. Kanda couldn't help but ask, "Work? What kind of work?"
"It's complicated to explain so I won't explain it."
"So perfunctory! So suspicious!"
"Because it's true." Li Nian said calmly, wanting to skip this topic, but Jingcao suddenly asked: "Work? Is it the same job as Huang Quanqin?"
Isayama's body stiffened instantly.
Li Nian pretended to be confused and asked back, "Isayama? Is Isayama-senpai working part-time?"
Isayama reacted and said with a forced smile, "No, Misaki, you are wrong. I was the one who introduced Li Nian to her. I didn't do it myself."
Shang Jingcao stared at Li Nian and made a long "Ah~~~~" sound, but his expression did not change and he did not reveal any flaws, so Shang Jingcao finally lost interest and gave up.
Isayama breathed a sigh of relief.
"Have you found a job with a good salary?" Qingshan said enviously: "That's great, congratulations."
"Thank you very much. I hope Qingshan can realize your dream soon. I believe that by then you won't have to work so hard all day."
"Nanami, come on." Shiina clenched his fist and gave his blessing.
Qingshan was stunned, then nodded with a smile: "Thank you for your good words, I will achieve it through my own efforts! But even if I become a voice actor, it is just the beginning, and I will probably have to continue my part-time job life until then."
There was a knock on the door at this time.
"Is it the waiter who is delivering the food soon?"
Li Nian got up and opened the door, but the person standing outside was An Yi, who was leaning on his knees and panting.
"You're here...what's wrong with you?"
"I, I rode here as fast as I could."
"It's a bit hard, come in and sit down first."
Li Nian returned to his seat, arranged for him to sit next to him, and introduced him to everyone: "This is Aki Tomoya, now everyone is here."
"Hello!"
An Yi nodded heavily, his eyes lingered on Shiina for a moment, then turned straight to Shangjingusa, becoming hot.
"It's a real person..."
Kamiigusa crossed his arms, "Shinto-kun! It seems your friend has taken a fancy to my body!"
"Wake up, this is a herbivore. It probably doesn't like your body but your talent."
"I've heard a lot about Senior Kamiigusa. I've seen the animated short you made! It's so funny! I'm a big fan of yours!" As expected, Aki started with endless praise for Kamiigusa's animation.
When Uegusa heard the compliment, he was immediately overjoyed: "Really? Praise me more!"
"Whether it's the connection between the storyboards or the design of the characters..."
An Yi really started to praise him non-stop, and Kamiigusa enjoyed listening to him very much and became more and more proud.
"Oh! You are very knowledgeable, kid! You have a bright future, so you should hang out with me in the future!"
"Yes, I'd love to!"
"There are actually people in this world who share the same vibes as Kamiigusa-senpai..."
Kanda and Aoyama moved their chairs slightly away from the man with shuddering expressions.
At this time, the waiter came in and started to put food on the table. Shiina, who had no interest in the surroundings, stared at the beef on the table.
"Korata, I'm hungry."
"Then let's eat."
Li Nian picked up a piece of pork belly and placed it on the grill, which made a sizzling sound and dripped fat.
Misaki's expression suddenly became serious.
"I heard the signal that the war had begun."

Chapter 95: No one is saintly
Shiina agreed with Uegusa's description and nodded vigorously: "Korata, level one battle preparation."
"I have a bad feeling when I see your posture! Let me make it clear that you are not allowed to stare at the meat I am grilling!" Kanda became alert and warned immediately.
Ueigusa raised his hand happily and said, "That's impossible!"
"How dare you give me such a shameless and immediate denial?!"
"The essence of war is the plunder of resources, young man! The weak will just wait for the inevitable exploitation and starvation on the battlefield!"
"I now understand that you have set your sights on my meal. Just wait and see. This time I will defend my territory to the death!"
"Misaki is still the same." Isayama obviously knew what kind of person Kamiigusa was and showed a helpless expression.
Qingshan glared at them.
"No fighting at the table."
"Give up, Aoyama. If aliens listen to you, they won't be aliens anymore. So just let Kanda fight to the death, or he will really starve to death here."
"Why do you say that, Li Nian..."
