If I can get the uniform from her, it will be much more convenient for Gokou Ruri to come to Sobu High School in the future.

But asking a girl who had just broken up with her boyfriend for her old uniform—isn't that a bit too ambiguous? Would she really think he was a pervert?

"Oh, it's so troublesome..." Li Mo muttered.

On the other side, Wu Geng’s house.

"Did anything happen to Liuli today?" Wu Geng's mother, who came back early for a rare occasion, asked her eldest daughter curiously.

"What?" Gogen Ruri was stunned and said with a guilty conscience, "Why do you ask?"

"Because Hinata and Tama said you were late when you went to pick them up today." Gogen's mother said, "Hinata even came to me to complain."

Gokou Ruri immediately glared at her sister, who gave her a Fujiya look in return.

Paired with the two pigtails that are mysteriously similar to Fujiya's, it really has that flavor.

"It was just a little accident on the way." Gokura Ruri muttered in her usual somewhat cold tone: "Don't worry."

"That's good. Now, the second question." Wu Geng's mother's smile suddenly turned a little mischievous: "Where did you get that set of boys' clothes at home?"

"What..." Gokou Ruri had never expected that the magician's sportswear that she had secretly hidden would be discovered by her mother, and her expression suddenly became panicked.

"Although mom doesn't object to love, Liuli is still too young. Mom suggests that you just stay at the platonic level for now. Don't cross that line~" The smile on Wu Geng's mother's face became more teasing.

"That's not the case!" Gogen Ruri, who finally came to her senses after seeing her mother's expression, immediately denied it. However, a blush still appeared on her face, which was particularly obvious and charming on her porcelain doll-like white face. "My relationship with that person is not like that! It's much more noble and profound... Ugh, stop laughing!"

Chapter 13 On the way to school

Yukinoshita Yukino is on her way to school.

Because of the accident at the beginning of the school year, she moved out of the house and lived alone, and naturally she no longer had a driver or luxury car to pick her up.

But for the girl, this actually gave her a hard-earned sense of freedom.

And occasionally you can see some stray cats on the road. Although most cats are very alert and difficult to approach - this is understandable. Eighty percent of those that are particularly unvigilant are caught and disposed of harmlessly by people in the shelter - but even so, if a girl can see a cute cat that suits her aesthetic taste, it can still make her mood particularly good for the whole morning.

The same thing happened today. When she passed by a place where stray cats often appeared, she looked over there out of habit.

It was a vacant lot for sale, but because the location was not particularly good, the sign had been hanging on the real estate side for a long time but it still could not be sold. At this time, the ground was overgrown with weeds. If it were not for the children nearby who always played here, the weeds would probably have been high enough to cover people's ankles.

Thanks to such a good ecological environment, Yukinoshita Yukino can always see those little wild cats here when she goes to school on weekdays.

However, the situation today was quite different. Before her, there had already been uninvited guests in this open space.

It was a boy wearing a Sobu High School uniform. He was holding a cat flick in his hand and shaking it, as if trying to lure a few small kittens to come closer, making a sucking sound with his mouth.

That sound is usually used to tease dogs, right? The girl complained in her heart as she took a few steps forward as if nothing had happened. Only then did she see the face of the uninvited guest and the small airline box he had placed at his feet.

To Yukinoshita Yukino's surprise, the other party was someone she knew.

It's not quite right to say that they know each other. To be precise, they just have a slight intersection, and their relationship is not very good - although her relationship with everyone in the school is not very good, but if other people's friendliness level in her eyes is 50, then this person is probably only around 30, which is the level that will almost become hostility if it drops another 10 points.

After a brief hesitation, the girl asked, "Asakura Takuma-kun, what are you doing here?"

The moment the boy turned around and saw Yukinoshita Yukino, his expression, which had originally seemed quite kind because he was teasing the cat, suddenly became much more sinister.

"This has nothing to do with you, right, Miss Yukinoshita, the snitch?"

"I only informed the teacher of your actions out of basic human morality." The girl was completely unfazed by his harsh attitude. She simply frowned and said, "If you don't want to be reported, just behave yourself."

"You make me feel like a prisoner," Li Mo shrugged, not wanting to argue with this guy any further. "What can I say, man."

Although this guy seemed to be very popular before traveling through time, Li Mo is not from the second dimension, and he has no interest in this kind of character who is neither honest nor upright.

Just like a female imp, if you meet her online or in a game you can just laugh it off, or even make some funny jokes, but if you meet her in real life you will just think she is a naughty kid who you want to grab and beat up.

"I'm not a man. Your meaningless words almost make me doubt how you get your English grades." The girl said tit for tat.

She seldom communicated with others and she didn't seem to realize that Li Mo had refused to fight and didn't want to communicate with her.

"I don't know if you've heard of this in Chinese, but there's an idiom called 'suspecting your neighbor of stealing your axe.'" Li Mo was almost amused. He sarcastically replied, "People's prejudices are as huge as a mountain."

"As someone who's second in Chinese, I know that, of course. But it has nothing to do with the current situation. The neighbor in the idiom didn't actually steal, but I can't trust your character."

Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at the cats hiding in the bushes, only their heads sticking out to look at the two of them, then glanced at the flight box at Li Mo's feet and asked again, "What were you doing just now?"

"None of your business." Li Mo rolled his eyes.

There wasn't actually much dirty work between him and Yukinoshita Yukino before. It was just that Shizuka Hiratsuka wanted him to join the Service Club, but neither Yukinoshita Yukino nor Li Mo was interested in this matter. There were some problems during the negotiations between the two, and eventually a small conflict occurred. As a result, Yukinoshita Yukino always felt that Li Mo was not a good person, and Li Mo still doesn't like him very much.

This was also the first time he broke the filter of "anime heroine". After that, he understood that the heroines in animations were not perfect saints, and they might not even be considered good people if they had different standpoints.

It was also after that that Li Mo was able to face the anime characters that appeared in his life with a more normal attitude.

He stood up, ignoring the other party, and decided to move to another place to catch a cat that could help Gokou Ruri with the experiment.

Of course, it wasn't an experiment on a cat. It was just the simplest part, letting the girl try to command the cat. As long as the cat could understand her and execute her instructions, the mission would be half completed.

Only after this success will the next experiment be carried out, such as trying to let her command dogs or birds.

"You want to catch a cat?" Yukinoshita Yukino asked with narrowed eyes.

"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Li Mo, who was picking up the flight case, looked at her unhappily. "Let's put it this way: I want to catch a cat and raise it. What does that have to do with you?"

"But the class meeting is in less than half an hour. As far as I know, the direction you're going back, this open space, and the school are not on the same line. In other words, either you will bring the cat to school, or you will skip class."

Yukinoshita Yukino said calmly, "Neither of these can be considered good behavior."

"Thank you for worrying about me. But as I said before, my affairs have nothing to do with you. The teachers will definitely not find my cat in school. You can continue to tell tales like you did yesterday, but after you have done so many times, whether Hiratsuka-sensei and the others will believe you again is another matter."

Li Mo, who was very annoyed by her attitude of only using righteous arguments to point fingers at others, said in a deep voice without giving in: "If you are not afraid of being late, just catch up."

Chapter 14: Fear in DNA

Originally, Li Mo just said it casually when he was angry, but he didn't expect that Yukinoshita Yukino would actually follow him closely.

Even though he couldn't see the expression on the girl's face, her gaze made him feel like a thorn in his back.

Maybe it was hostility or something else, but after that, no matter how Li Mo approached the cat quietly or used cat strips to lure the cat, the cat seemed to be scared away.

It is indeed a very sensitive creature. It seems that I won’t be able to catch the cat today.

Li Mo could only give up his original plan with regret.

Since you don't plan to catch the cat, the best option might be to hurry to school and make sure you're not late on time.

Although he could have spent the whole day wandering around doing nothing and wasted Yukinoshita Yukino's life by using his strongest stand to 'waste time', Li Mo still did not choose this option considering his credibility at school.

After taking out his cell phone to confirm the time, he started running towards the school.

Because the action was too sudden, Yukinoshita Yukino was unable to react. By the time she realized that Li Mo was running towards the school, the distance between the two had widened to nearly a hundred meters.

At this point, the girl had no choice but to grit her teeth and follow.

Her running posture is very standard, and she looks like a light and graceful deer, which is pleasing to the eye.

If she could maintain this state, no one would think that she could not catch up with the sneaking Li Mo.

However, when they were still halfway to the school, the sweat-drenched Yukinoshita Yukino had already begun to breathe rapidly, her running posture gradually became distorted, and her body became a little shaky. It looked like she would not be surprised to fall at any time.

Her running speed dropped to almost the same as that of an ordinary person's walking, and she could only watch Li Mo's back getting farther and farther away.

After a moment, Li Mo discovered that the girl behind him did not catch up.

He turned around curiously and saw Yukinoshita Yukino in a miserable state.

"So that's how it is. The weakness of the top lady in the grade is her physical strength?" Li Mo exclaimed seriously.

"Humans didn't evolve to this...huhu...level just for running...huhu..."

The girl is still trying to be stubborn.

She staggered a few times and finally couldn't keep running. She held her waist and gasped for the fresh morning air.

"Ah." Li Mo blinked, pointed at the girl, and said stubbornly, "There's a snake."

"what?"

Yukinoshita Yukino subconsciously looked in the direction he pointed.

Then she saw a colorful little snake crawling out from the manhole cover on the side of the road, sticking its head out and coiling up at her feet, as if it was very interested in the girl's ankles.

The girl was completely furious.

It was as if the terror engraved in her DNA suddenly gripped her heart. She had to stop and rest as if she had exhausted all her strength just a moment ago, but at this moment, she was already running towards the school like an arrow, as if it was a biological instinct to stay away from danger.

Li Mo whistled softly, and the little snake obediently crawled back into the sewer.

Then he leisurely followed the girl and ran towards the school.

Originally, Yukinoshita Yukino's poor endurance meant that the two of them were destined to be late for school - unless Li Mo left her behind and went away alone. It was not that Li Mo was incapable of doing such a despicable thing, but he had a feeling that if he really did that, it would probably take a long time to build up enough reputation with Hiratsuka Shizuka again.

But with the help of the snakes, the girl ran for her life and actually managed to get the two of them to school safely before the deadline.

"Safe." Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

"But you're out in front of me," Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was preparing for a class meeting, glanced at the two figures blocking the doorway, still breathing heavily, and quipped, "They were so incompatible yesterday, but today they're so close that they can go to school together? This generation of young people really has strange values."

"You'd better apologize to all the young people of this era," Li Mo said calmly. "And the one who was slow was Miss Number One in the school year, and it has nothing to do with me."

"Why did you come to school with Asakura, Yukinoshita? I remember that your homes are not in the same direction." Shizuka Hiratsuka ignored Li Mo's protest and asked Yukinoshita Yukino.

"It's just a coincidence... and a way to prevent any accidents." The girl said defiantly while trying to slow down her breathing, but she had no intention of revealing the news that Li Mo caught the cat.

This made Li Mo change his opinion of her a little.

Then he noticed the girl's eyes.

Unlike the pure hostility before, this time there seemed to be a hint of scrutiny.

Sure enough, the last bamboo green snake appeared too abruptly, which aroused the other party's suspicion... If you think about it carefully, it is indeed a bit too much to be scared by different kinds of snakes three times along the way.

However, the advantage of supernatural powers is that they cannot be confirmed by Muggles alone. No matter how suspicious Yukinoshita Yukino was, she could not have guessed that she could drive snakes at will and even make them do things that far exceeded the normal IQ of snakes.

"I am the one with the disease." Li Mo admitted seriously.

"Then why do you look so miserable..." Shizuka Hiratsuka took a look and found that although Li Mo was a little out of breath, he was much better than the disheveled Yukinoshita Yukino. He didn't even sweat much. After his breathing stabilized, he didn't look at all messy. So she changed the topic and said, "Did you make Yukinoshita look so miserable?"

What kind of nonsense is this unmarried older woman talking about?

"What, Asakura usually looks quiet, but is actually such a cruel person by nature?" "Unable to surpass the other person in academics, so he decided to destroy him physically?" "As expected of Asakura-kun" "Yukinoshita-san is in trouble..." The students in the audience whispered.

The corner of Li Mo's mouth twitched. He always felt that he had nothing in common with that group of guys. To be honest, he had never felt this way before. His reputation in the class... couldn't be considered bad, but it was definitely not very good either.

"I'm just doing what I should do." The girl, who had finally caught her breath, spoke in her usual cold tone, without any of the pitiful look she had just shown when she was frightened by the snake and screamed in pain.

"Okay, that's all for now. It's time for the class meeting." Hiratsuka Shizuka patted the table, then glanced at Li Mo and said meaningfully, "If you have anything to say, wait until lunch break. We'll have plenty of time to communicate properly then."

Chapter 15 Common

"I say, can't you just live in peace?"

After class, Shizuka Hiratsuka caught Li Mo who was trying to escape in the chaos, and called the reluctant Yukinoshita Yukino into the office as well.

"Useless teacher, problem students and normal people cannot understand each other." Yukinoshita Yukino sighed.

"Don't talk about problem students as if they were some other species!" Hiratsuka Shizuka complained. "Also, although you may not be self-aware, from a teacher's perspective, Yukinoshita is also a problem student."

Yukinoshita showed a rare look of astonishment, as if she had heard some shocking fact.

Was being called a problem student enough to shake her so much?

"Useless teacher, wizards and Muggles cannot understand each other." Li Mo also imitated Yukinoshita Yukino's tone and said.

"It doesn't matter since we're all Muggles." Hiratsuka Shizuka glanced at Li Mo and said, "It's better to say that you and Yukinoshita get along quite well."

"That's not the case." "No way."

The two said in unison.

"Is it necessary to show such a disgusted expression..." Hiratsuka Shizuka muttered.

"This is the first time I've been insulted like this since I was born."

"Being the same kind as this guy is worse than being cursed by a dark wizard."

The two of them spoke in unison again.

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at the two people who were in perfect harmony with each other and showed a distressed look.

Both Yukinoshita Yukino and Li Mo have very prominent personalities, and they cannot be convinced by a tough attitude. Moreover, as the first and second in comprehensive grades in the class, it is difficult to find a point of entry even if one wants to criticize them. It seems that the only way to ease the conflict between the two is to use roundabout means.
