The losers in daily youth have all become witches

"Indeed, how did you tell that?"

Li Mo asked curiously.

"Because people usually grab a seat right after getting their food, otherwise they'd have to stand around in the cafeteria with their plates for ages. It's rare to see someone like Asakura-san leisurely chatting with others."

"You took the photo, didn't you?"

Li Mo complained.

The girl raised her chin at him, signaling him to hurry up: "Asakura-san, please find a place to sit quickly, and save a seat for me too. I'm going to pick up my food soon."

After saying that, the girl ran away in a hurry.

Li Mo walked around the cafeteria helplessly, but unfortunately he couldn't find a seat.

In fact, the cafeteria of Sobu High School is quite large, but in terms of area, it is about the same size as an auditorium. However, there are tables and chairs inside, so the usable space is naturally half smaller.

In addition, many students still occupied seats even after they had finished their meals, which ultimately resulted in many people who came later being unable to find seats.

Li Mo looked around and picked out a group of people who were obviously still occupying seats and chatting after dinner, and blew an imperceptible whistle in that direction.

next moment.

"Snake! There's a snake!"

The person who looked like the leader of the group screamed, and immediately scared the people around her so much that they jumped up and looked around for the snake.

The kitchen staff immediately ran out to maintain order, but they did not find the snake in the other person's mouth. They just picked up a chopstick on the ground and concluded that the other person probably mistook the chopsticks that fell on the ground for a snake.

Those students had no way to defend themselves and could only leave in disappointment, while Li Mo took the opportunity to sit in the seat over there.

"What a blessing!"

At this time, Yanaijian came over with a plate of food and sat down across from him. He said happily, "I thought I would have to wait a long time before I could get a table. What was that commotion just now? Was there really a snake?"

"It's just an illusion created by people who lack quality and public morality."

Li Mo picked up the disposable chopsticks and broke them apart as if nothing had happened.

As a result, it was broken into one long and one short.

"Haha, it seems that Asakura-san's training is still far from enough. People like me who often come to the cafeteria to eat are already familiar with how to use disposable chopsticks. Watch out!"

Crack.

"You broke it too, didn't you?"

"...as long as they're the same length in the end, it'll be fine!"

"You can't eat disposable chopsticks. Don't chew them! Why do you only have this inexplicable desire to win in strange places like this?"

"Asakura-san, don't you know?"

"what?"

"As the saying goes, the food field is like a battlefield! From the distant Ediacaran period to the present, all living things have been constantly honing themselves for the sake of food! This is the inheritance and evolution of billions of years. As humans, how can we let go of our obsession with food? Eat or be eaten, that is the question!"

"I don't think it's such a grand issue at all. I think it's better to stop distorting famous quotes so wantonly. Shakespeare would cry."

"There are a thousand different kinds of disposable chopsticks in a thousand people's mouths!"

"No one except you will eat disposable chopsticks!"

“Because it’s made from wood from fast-growing forests, it won’t damage normal forests and is very environmentally friendly.”

"Is this something to be proud of?"

Li Mo sighed and said, "So what exactly did you come to me for? Just to eat?"

"Actually, it's about making salt sauce."

The girl put down the chopsticks that were dented by her teeth and looked at Li Mo seriously: "I think we can stop here."

"Aha?"

"I know Asakura-san is a pushover, which is why I pay attention to what's going on with Yakishio-chan and Ayano-san. But often, I think letting two people who rely on each other face the unknown future together is perhaps a better option than planning their future path from the start. And Asakura-san, if you ever get a girlfriend, you definitely won't like someone dictating your future, right?"

Perhaps feeling she was being too serious, the girl gave another sheepish smile. "Besides, many people grow up hearing things like 'I'm doing this for your own good,' and then follow a path planned by their parents. Even if that's objectively the path least likely to go wrong, they still find it hard to let go, whether it's for their dreams, sweet love, or extra char siu ramen."

Although he looks silly at ordinary times, he is actually surprisingly sharp. His mind is quite delicate to some extent, but he is very rough in many aspects.

Faced with the girl's persuasion, Li Mo also responded with a smile.

"Well said, so I'll accept your barbecued pork."

"Huh?! That's what I was saving for last!"

Chapter 84: Ryunosuke.

Interestingly, after Li Mo's observation, he found that although Yanami Xingcai's eating manners were not very elegant, he did not eat voraciously. His cheeks were always bulging, which reminded him of Hamtaro, whom he had raised in his previous life. He thought he was quite cute.

But even with such a cute eating posture, Yanami was able to finish the food in about the same amount of time as herself, even though the amount was twice as much as hers. In a sense, this shows that one cannot judge a book by its cover.

But considering that she eats those hot spring buns the size of a baby's fist one bite at a time, it doesn't seem unacceptable.

After lunch break, there is physical education class.

The physical education classes at Sobu High School are for both boys and girls, and although the content of the activities is slightly different, they are mixed in order to save educational resources.

The general manifestation is that when boys are exercising, girls will sit on the edge of the playground or gymnasium and watch them exercise, and when girls are exercising, boys will stand by and discuss whose gymnastics suit is more revealing.

When a boy's righteous declaration of "Anyone who abolishes Bruma should go to hell!" was agreed by a group of male compatriots, Li Mo hid in a corner and answered a phone call.

"Hey, Ryunosuke, why do you have to call me at this time? It's still class time. Unlike you, I'm an honors student who's studying hard and getting credits."

"I called you because I knew you were in class. That way you wouldn't be constantly making fun of me and wasting my time."

"Is what I said really that boring... But having said that, I'm actually quite flattered that you called me personally today instead of the maid."

[The maid is currently undergoing maintenance. There were some issues with the previous AI model, and it will take some time to completely eliminate the bugs.]

"Anyway, thank you for the previous procedure."

Li Mo doesn't have much talent in computers and programming. The operating program for the 'room you can't leave without XX' that connected a series of devices including monitors and surveillance cameras was written by this big guy. Although to him it was just a 'crude thing that can't even be considered a college student's graduation project', the fool-proof operation was very easy to use.

【boring……】

"You want to see a river of blood? What a bad taste, Ryunosuke."

"No, that's not the case. Anyway, we're not close enough to call each other by name."

"Don't say such cruel things, Akutagawa-kun."

"What's with that name? It seems like someone would commit suicide at 35. Please call me Akasaka-sama."

"Okay, Akasaka-sama."

Li Mo said in a tone like coaxing a child.

He met Akasaka Ryunosuke while working part-time, and he had never actually met him in person. The two basically communicated through phone calls and the AI ​​software called "Little Maid" developed by the other party. However, Little Maid was still in the early stages of development and often had some strange bugs, so Li Mo was able to obtain a lot of real information about Akasaka Ryunosuke from the other party.

At first, the other party was indignant about this, but he got used to it over time. Li Mo was not the kind of person who liked to harass others and maintained a good social distance. As a result, the two of them became more familiar with each other without realizing it.

[Rather than this boring stuff, how's the thing we agreed on going? Any new progress?]

"As for the IBN5100, I found another one, but I suggest you don't get your hopes too high."

"Just get it, don't worry about the rest. I have my own pursuits."

"The legendary phantom program G.Bible?"

[That's right, the legendary G.Bible, a program written by a legendary game developer who compiled his life's experience and 'encompasses all the possibilities of gaming in the world.']

"I think this kind of thing sounds like an urban legend. After all, it sounds a bit exaggerated..."

"That's just because you're too shortsighted. There are many similar rumors in our industry. For example, it's said that someone once developed software that could harm all of humanity and could be stored on a single CD..."

(note)

"Humans are too fragile."

[What a condescending perspective! Aren't you a human?]

"To be honest, I'm actually a magician."

Li Mo said seriously.

Even through the receiver, Li Mo seemed to be able to hear the awkward breathing of the other party.

[I accidentally chatted for too long again. Anyway, remember to mail me the IBN5100 you found.]

"I found that IBN5100 in a dilapidated shrine. It might not be in good condition, maybe even broken."

"It's okay, I can fix it myself. Just send it over."

"As expected of you, Ryunosuke... Isn't there a big company that's interested in your technology and wants to sign you? Can't you ask them to help find the program you want?"

If it were that easy to find, it wouldn't be called a phantom program. Furthermore, the legendary game developer spent the rest of his life in Chiba. The IBN5100 and tapes containing the G.Bible are likely in the Chiba area.

"You have a lot of confidence in me..."

[Not really, but I just felt like you were pretty good at rummaging through trash when you were working.]

"Hey!"

Having said that, it is actually true in a sense.

At the beginning, Li Mo had no magic power in his body, and even if he had the two spells [Snake] and [Scale], they were almost unusable.

Yes, 'almost'.

As mentioned before, in addition to being able to turn things into snakes, [Snake] also has the effect of controlling snakes or communicating with snakes.

This ability consumes very little magic power, and even Li Mo at that time could barely use it. Even if it overdrafted his life, it would only manifest as mental fatigue, and he could just go home and take a nap.

So as long as he finds a large number of wild snakes, Li Mo can control them to serve him - he can't do complicated things, but it's still very simple to just find something.

Snakes' long bodies are also very good at getting into places that are difficult for ordinary people to reach, and they can often find many things. With the help of snakes, Li Mo was quite famous in the nearby area as a jack of all trades and master of none. This may be the origin of Akasaka Ryunosuke's impression that Li Mo is "very good at rummaging through garbage."

Although Li Mo wanted to continue chatting with Ryunosuke, the other party was well-known for his energy conservation. After telling him a few things, he immediately hung up the phone. Even if he called again, the other party was too lazy to answer and just asked him to leave a message.

Helpless Li Mo could only hang up the phone.

As a result, before he could put his phone back into his sportswear pocket, he saw the physical education teacher behind him looking at him with dissatisfaction.

Oh shit, it's over.

Note: In the Detective Conan series, there's a plot about a computer game system engineer named Itakura Taku, who develops a program on behalf of the Black Organization. Ultimately, his conscience strikes him, and he decides, "For the sake of all humanity, this program can't be allowed to exist," and abandons development. This incredibly powerful software, due to its age, only requires a single CD... which is actually quite good. If it were a few years earlier, it might have been a 3.5-inch floppy disk, something that even the post-00 generation in China might never have seen in person.

Chapter 85: The cuckoo takes over the magpie's nest.

The mobile phone was confiscated.

This is a matter of course.

Sobu High School's own school rules do not allow students to bring mobile phones, but now that mobile phones have become a necessary means of communication, the school turns a blind eye.

But if someone uses his mobile phone in class as arrogantly as Li Mo, that’s another matter.

But no matter what, Li Mo is an excellent student with top grades, and his deviation value is frighteningly high. Naturally, the school will not be too strict with students like him.

So after school, Li Mo ran to Shizuka Hiratsuka's office, intending to get his phone back.

"I don't have your phone."

In the office, Shizuka Hiratsuka said, cigarette in hand.

"Isn't it bad to smoke in school?"

Li Mo looked at the cigarette in Shizuka Hiratsuka's mouth and couldn't help but frowning and said.

He does not discriminate against smokers, but letting students smell secondhand smoke in a place like school is another matter.

“It’s chocolate.”

Shizuka Hiratsuka gave a mocking smile that said, "Haha, you're blind sometimes too," and held out a candy box that looked a bit like a cigarette box towards Li Mo. "Want one? Mint flavor, very refreshing."

"I refuse anything minty except toothpaste."

Li Mo waved his hand: "If my phone isn't with Mr. Hiratsuka, where else could it be? Could it be with the physical education teacher?"

"Kotegawa from the Discipline Committee came over and took away all the things that had been confiscated. They said they were doing some kind of Discipline Week or something."

Hiratsuka Shizuka spread her hands and said, "Why don't you just go to the student union and ask them for it?"
