Early the next morning, Zhang Shenglin put on Zhang Shengchun's human skin mask and changed into a light blue long robe with dark patterns, the same style that Zhang Shengchun had worn before.

After checking himself in the mirror to make sure his disguise was flawless, he turned and glanced at the little mermaid sleeping soundly on the bed.

The little mermaid was hugging its own tail, its soft cheek pressed against it, creating a small, slightly bulging mound of cheek flesh.

Zhang Shenglin: "..."

The first time he saw it, he was worried that the little mermaid might break its bones. But after seeing it many times, he was no longer surprised by the little mermaid's bizarre and dangerous sleeping postures, which were even more strange than those of cats.

Reaching out, he released the tail from the little merman's hand, allowing the little merman to sleep soundly on the pillow. Su Xingze was already very familiar with his scent, and even with him handling him like this, the little merman didn't wake up. He just impatiently patted him with his tail before continuing to drift off to sleep.

After Zhang Shenglin covered him with a blanket, he took out the strange pen he had obtained from the little mermaid, wrote a line on a piece of paper, placed the paper on the table, and then left the courtyard.

When Su Xingze woke up, it was just past 10 o'clock. He wasn't surprised that he didn't see the child when he got up. He knew that today was the assessment day and the child would definitely go to the assessment location early.

Then he saw the note on the table, and saw that the child had left him food in the kitchen, reminding him to eat it. He couldn't help but smile.

After breakfast, Su Xingze followed his senses to find the child. He walked past some familiar scenery and finally found the child outside Zhang Heshan's house. Of course, the child now had Zhang Shengchun's face and was standing with Zhang Heshan.

Without a doubt, this Zhang Heshan was also a person wearing a human skin mask. He remembered that this person was also a classmate of the child at the clan school, and had a very good relationship with Zhang Shengchun. They were the kind of friends who often shared gossip together.

Su Xingze recognizes people through each person's unique spiritual wave; sometimes, appearance isn't that important.

In his world, there are many people who can transform, and the most advanced transformation techniques can even simulate the spirit waves of the person being transformed into.

Su Xingze only glanced at the child playing 'Zhang Shengchun' at the very beginning, and then walked over to Zhang Shengchun, who was wearing the face of 'Zhang Shenglin', and called out 'Ah Lin' in a very sweet voice.

Knowing that the two of them were actually disguising each other's faces, he was inwardly laughing wildly. He knew that the so-called lottery was rigged, and that the disguise target each person drew was actually arranged by the clan school teacher in secret. But he really didn't expect the teacher to let the child and Zhang Shengchun disguise themselves as each other.

It seems that the teacher at the ethnic school understands his students very well, and the person he chose to impersonate is exactly the opposite of his own personality.

When Zhang Shenglin saw the look of surprise on his face, he was about to say something when he suddenly remembered his current identity and quickly shut his mouth. But as a socialite who liked to communicate with people, suddenly becoming taciturn was really making him feel uncomfortable.

On the other side, Zhang Shenglin saw that the little merman only glanced at him before walking towards 'him'. His pupils contracted slightly, and he reflexively took a step forward.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and adjusted his actions almost immediately. However, his unusual behavior caught the attention of Zhang Heshan, who was standing next to him.

He followed Zhang Shengchun's gaze and found that it was one of the outliers in the clan school, a clansman named Zhang Xingze.

He was usually inseparable from Zhang Shenglin, so he felt a little uneasy seeing him alone today. But when he saw him walk up to Zhang Shenglin, he felt that this was the right way to go.

Zhang Shengchun's actions just now, coupled with his unusually lively expression today and his lack of his usual enthusiasm for sharing gossip, even though his speaking habits were similar to usual, made him suspicious of the identity behind Zhang Shengchun.

“Shengchun, my aunt is marrying Uncle Arong today. Everyone says Uncle Arong is a good choice. He has made contributions to the clan and has saved my aunt from the ancient tomb many times. They are in love, but I always feel that my aunt does not like him.”

Zhang Shengchun patted Zhang Heshan on the shoulder and earnestly advised, "Heshan, I think you're just having this misconception because you're too reluctant to part with your aunt. How could Aunt Shengxue not like Uncle Rong? They've been friends for decades, they've partnered up countless times, and they've saved each other's lives countless times."

"I remember the most dangerous time was more than 30 years ago in the Princess's Tomb. Uncle Rong risked his life to save Aunt Shengxue from the trap. Of all the people who entered the Princess's Tomb that time, only the two of them came out. Since then, Aunt Shengxue has basically only gone into the tomb with Uncle Rong. Unless the clan has other arrangements, no matter who asks her, it won't work. Uncle Rong is the only one who is special."

"Everyone in the clan says that their friendship has been tested in times of hardship. Aunt Shengxue would agree to Uncle Arong's marriage proposal, so it's impossible that she doesn't like Uncle Arong."

This 'Zhang Shengchun' imitates the real Zhang Shengchun's speaking habits very well, but...

Zhang Heshan couldn't help but chuckle. His speaking habits were similar, and his tone was very much like Zhang Shengchun's, but there were still subtle differences from the real Zhang Shengchun. In addition, there was a hint of coldness in the expression of this Zhang Shengchun when he spoke. Without a doubt, it was that kid.

Su Xingze was unaware that the child had been exposed because of a small gesture and overly flat speech. At that moment, he was chatting casually with 'Zhang Shenglin'.

'Zhang Shenglin' ​​tried his best to imitate Zhang Shenglin's usual quiet, indifferent and aloof demeanor, but occasionally he would unconsciously reveal Zhang Shengchun's habits.

For example, right now he couldn't help but put his hand on Su Xingze's shoulder and said in a mysterious tone, "Xingze, guess what we're waiting for in front of Aunt Shengxue's house?"

Su Xingze rolled his eyes. The unique indifference that children possess is something that no one can imitate, no matter how hard they try. Zhang Shengchun's feigned indifference with a child's face is truly comical. He felt that in the future, when he looked at the child's face, he would definitely be reminded of Zhang Shenglin, whose Zhang Shengchun-esque personality was off the charts today.

In order not to let Zhang Shengchun ruin the child's image, Su Xingze silently shifted his gaze to the child, and then fell silent again.

He had expected the child's acting to be bad, but he didn't know how to evaluate this kind of acting that was somewhere between good and bad.

The child actor's acting was good because he perfectly captured Zhang Shengchun's habitual movements, and even what he said was almost identical to what the real Zhang Shengchun would say. The only difference was his somewhat unresponsive expression and those unique, emotionless eyes.

These don't really look like a child's eyes, but it's not strange to see them on a child.

Su Xingze secretly covered his face in his heart and silently added acting to the child's learning plan.

Hopefully, the child won't be too upset after failing the assessment.
