Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　As Cong Yu said this, he reached out and scratched Hong's chin: "I just wanted to save you... You know how bad your condition was back then."

　Hong was very satisfied with Cong Yu's answer, so she adjusted her posture, squinted her eyes, and snuggled closer into his arms.

　Then, she suddenly remembered something and abruptly opened her eyes.

　"That ring?!"

　As Hong said this, Cong Yu immediately followed up, "Yes, it's the 21st Group."

　"They wanted to use that ring to simulate the magic of a magical girl and control the spiritual veins here... The shackles on the spiritual veins are not very intelligent things."

　In other words, it is very easy to deceive.

　"So, the monster was also lured by the 21st Group?"

　Cong Yu tilted her head in confusion at Hong's words, then pressed her back onto her lap: "Too smart."

　Speaking in such a sarcastic tone, Cong Yu gently rubbed her ear: "The ring has already been sent to the school, and we still need to work hard to determine the location of the spiritual vein."

　"..." That seems to make sense.

　I don't know if it was because of Cong Yu's actions, or because she was shy about those actions, or because she knew she was clumsy...

　Her red earlobes gradually turned the same red as her name.

　Cong Yu then briefly explained the truth to her, saying, "There are two forces... the Twenty-First Group and an unknown force."

　"The former has already made arrangements within the school, while the latter is still using monsters to pinpoint the location of the spiritual veins, but... I think the latter poses a greater threat."

　"..." That's enough. Unlike a certain yellow-type person who doesn't want to reveal their name, red people are actually intelligent enough.

　"But the situation at the Magical Girl Headquarters is making things a bit difficult for me."

　Cong Yu said this, and Hong's reply was simple: "Then let them die here... I'm just kidding."

　Yes, it's only something we can joke about now.

　While it's not impossible, the subsequent consequences would be extremely troublesome.

　Because their purpose and demands are unclear.

　If they came for those two groups, that would be fine, but Cong Yu was worried that they were specifically targeting her.

　In the eyes of everyone at Honghe Group, he was just an ordinary cadre... probably a fairly capable, popular, and prestigious ordinary cadre.

　However, Cong Yu herself knew this...

　My background is quite intimidating.

　"..." Cong Yu silently pondered the problem, while Hong enjoyed this rare moment of closeness... She remembered the last time she had stayed so quietly in Cong Yu's arms.

　It's the same as last time!

　Ok……

　When she was first captured by Cong Yu, he held her like this, and she, who always had nightmares, slept very soundly from then on.

　During her time as a member of the "Purgers Squad," the vengeful spirits of those she killed never appeared in her dreams again.

　It really puts my mind at ease.

　"Is Teacher Hong here? Teacher? Someone didn't have time to escape to an open area and was injured by a heavy object... Teacher?"

　With that sound, the door to the infirmary was suddenly flung open.

　A student council member carrying an injured person stared in disbelief at Cong Yu and Hong lying on each other's laps, saying, "Cong Yu?"

　Cong Yu: "..."

　"She was too tired and fell asleep."

　Cong Yu spoke quietly, covering her red, open eyes with her hand: "I was having an upset stomach... I didn't expect her to lie down like that while we were talking."

　The student council members immediately believed it.

　After all, Cong Yu was known for being popular with both men and women at school, and he always rejected love letters from all sorts of girls.

　He couldn't help but believe it.

　As she said this, Cong Yu pretended to push Hong: "Teacher Hong, wake up... a student is injured."

　Then, Hong pretended to wake up groggily, but the blush on her face didn't look like she had been asleep.

　Student Council: "..."

　After hesitating for a moment, the student council member didn't say anything, but silently placed the student with the injured leg on the hospital bed.

　Then, he quietly pulled Cong Yu aside.

　"Although I envy Cong Yu, you are really too kind."

　As the student council member said this, he looked at the injured person in the next bed and Hong, who was asking about the injured person's condition.

　"I think Teacher Hong is in danger; she might have been awake just now."

　A student council member, who knew Cong Yu, warned, "I think she's trying to take advantage of you!"

　All correct! That's amazing!

　Cong Yu was impressed by his keen insight.

　"Moreover, I suspect that Ms. Hong wants to keep bothering you. She might take the opportunity to retaliate against that student because she was disturbed."

　Hearing the other person speak so softly, Cong Yu didn't think the Red Cross would go to such lengths... There might be resentment, but not enough to warrant revenge.

　Cong Yu was thinking this.

　Wounded soldier: "Ouch! It hurts so much... Um, Teacher Hong, let me apply the medicine myself."

　Hong: "Shut up! It's just applying some medicine, why are you making such a fuss... Once you've applied the medicine, get out of the infirmary! I'm going to massage it!"

　Wounded soldier: "Ugh...ahhh!!!"

　Cong Yu: "..."

　Student Council: "See, I told you... So Cong Yu, when you're out and about, you need to take good care of yourself."

　The process was completely wrong, but the result was completely right!

　Are you really a genius?!

　Chapter Fifty-Eight: Honest Man Yao Chuan Guang

　[Alyssa from Afar: I've done as you said. When can I officially join?]

　[0451: Don't worry, that day will come.]

　[Alyssa from the Far Shore: Also, I'm injured, and you guys are using monsters to attack. Didn't you tell me beforehand?]

　[0451: We didn't do that.]

　[0451: But everything is still within the plan.]

　"Nice to meet you, Yuan'an. I am Cong Yu. Please take care of me... Thank you for taking care of Yao Chuan Guang during this time."

　Hearing the sudden sound from behind, Ayari immediately turned off her phone and turned to look at the long-haired boy behind her.

　How should I put it? Although we've met before at school...

　This was her first formal encounter with Cong Yu, and her first impression of him was, as expected, that he was handsome.

　He just stood there calmly.

　Although she was introducing herself, it was clear that Cong Yu had never expected a response from the other party.

　They simply perform the social etiquette they "should" do in a perfunctory manner.

　It makes one wonder why he was so popular at school.

　"Please...please advise me."

　As Alisa spoke, she nodded hesitantly, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and then turned her gaze to Yaochuan Guang behind Congyu.

　Her heart was pounding, and she had no idea whether Cong Yu had seen anything.

　However, she had clearly misunderstood. Cong Yu's silent approach from behind was simply a reflection of his personality.

　Cong Yu doesn't have a habit of casually watching other people's chats.

　"Senior, Toshiro!"

　Hikari Yokawa interrupted their conversation, glaring at Congyu with a huff: "Congyu-chan, what did you mean by 'thank you for taking care of Hikari Yokawa'?"

　Cong Yu paused for a moment after hearing this.

　"literal meaning."

　With that, Cong Yu simply found a seat and sat down, looking around at the furnishings... This was the club's activity room.

　Last semester, although the food club didn't have many members, it was still a formal club, and they had all the necessary cooking equipment.

　After Cong Yu spoke with the principal, the ban on electrical appliances was lifted...

　So you can find ovens and air fryers in the food club's activity room.

　They even have bread makers and special equipment for frying chicken.

　"..." Cong Yu looked around, then met the gaze of Ayalis, who was looking at him: "I'm just here to freeload, you don't need to worry about me."

　Although I said it wasn't necessary to worry about it...

　However, Ayari was still concerned about whether Congyu had seen her phone... but judging from the looks of it, he probably hadn't.

　Otherwise, Cong Yu's reaction wouldn't have been so calm.

　While she was lost in thought, Yaochuan Guang was still talking to Cong Yu: "If you're full,"

　What will happen after we get home?

　As he said this, Yao Chuan Guang pondered, "When we get back, I still have to cook, and then it'll just be me and Xiao Lan eating?"

　That just doesn't feel quite right.

　Before Cong Yu came to stay, it was always just her and Lan Tianzhu eating together... perhaps without realizing it, they had already gotten used to Cong Yu's presence.

　To this, Cong Yu simply replied, "Don't worry, you can just make some snacks. I'll put dinner in another stomach when we get back."

　"Stomach?! How many stomachs do you have?!"

　"First of all, I'm not called Stomach, and secondly..."

　As she said this, Cong Yu paused and said, "Haven't you heard? Boys' sweets are stored in a different stomach."

　Yaochuan Guang had heard similar words before, but the original words were from a girl, right?

　"..." Seeing that Yaochuan Guang remained unmoved, Cong Yu pondered for a moment and changed his words: "Actually, I was the champion of the 2077 Eating Contest."

　"It's not 2077 yet, is it?!"

　"Maybe I'm remembering wrong, or maybe it happened in a different year. Maybe I won the championship on July 7th last year?"

　Yao Chuanguang: "!!!"

　Where did the 20th month come from? Where did the 77th day come from?!

　"..." Yao Chuanguang's mouth was wide open, and she felt that her pig brain was overloaded. She babbled for a long time but couldn't say anything.

　Cat with a headache.jpg

　"Um...okay."

　As she said this, Yaochuan Guang sighed a little. She roughly understood what Cong Yu meant... In short, she wanted to freeload here.

　But there is a serious problem.

　"Even if you say you want some snacks, I don't have enough time to knead dough or bake pastries..."

　Cong Yu didn't have any objections to Yao Chuan Guang's seemingly helpless expression. So she simply rested her chin on her hand and said, "It's a pity, but... actually, I wasn't really expecting anything anyway."

　Then what nonsense were you spouting just now?!

　Yaochuan Guang and Yuanan Alisa were thinking the same thing at the same time.

　"Um, Cong Yu."

　Alisa, twirling a strand of her hair with her fingers, asked, "Do you want to join the food club?"

　In response to her question, Cong Yu raised her hand and looked at the other person with a hair clip hanging on their head... The style looked somewhat familiar.
