After Boqi moved into my closet, the quiet life is gone forever

"I'm considering the feasibility of your magical escape."

"Oh...have you come up with any good ideas?"

Chaoyang did not think highly of himself and thought that since he could not figure it out, Xiangzi certainly could not figure it out either. On the contrary, he felt that Xiangzi's thinking was definitely more flexible than his own who relied on cheats.

"I thought of several but rejected them all. Now there's only one left. I just finished thinking of it and you came."

"tell me the story."

"The main concern right now is the tunnel cracking. What if we could fill those cracks and give them some support?"

"……What do you mean?"

"You said you could control water, right? If you could control the water and fill it into the soil, then seal the whole thing with ice, it should be much more solid, right?"

Chaoyang had never thought about it that way, because in his impression he couldn't achieve the large-scale freezing ability that Rabinie had. If he wanted to achieve that level, he should call Aokiji.

"I can't do it. It's possible for a small area, but my magic power can't extend that far over a large area."

Chaoyang thought about it briefly. Although he had never tried it, he was sure that he could not do something on such a large scale. Maintaining the frozen area required continuous magic power, but the size of the area he could provide was already limited.

"It doesn't have to be all at once. Didn't you say that magic power is constant? So if you freeze and solidify an area first and then dig through the frozen area, then dig a small part through the frozen area and continue freezing, ice is different from your other elemental magic. Once it's in ice form, it will take some time to melt even if there's no magic power to maintain it, right? You just need to repeat this process quickly..."

"...It's a good idea, but the problem is that if I want to dig it out, I'll definitely rely on brute force, but if I can't freeze the ground over a large area at once, freezing only a small area will still cause collapse."

At this point, Xiangzi was speechless. Indeed, let alone the lack of tools, even if there were tools like shovels, it would take forever to dig out the dirt.

"It would be nice to have a tool that's really sharp and can cut."

As Xiangzi spoke, he seemed a little depressed, and he lowered his head and kicked the iron bar at his feet.

Chaoyang couldn't bear to see her like this, so he spoke.

"It doesn't matter. Your idea is good. As long as you can think of it..."

Chaoyang was halfway through his words when he remembered what he had been taught in the Fulilian world.

"Magic is a world of imagination. As long as you can imagine the scene and have enough magic power, it can be realized."

When Xiangzi saw Chaoyang suddenly say this to himself, she couldn't understand what it meant.

But maybe I thought Chaoyang might be thinking of something.

At this moment, Chaoyang was having a crazy brainstorming session in his mind.

[The magic I currently know includes lightning, water, ice, and some basic magic. I can't imagine lightning and ice being able to cut through anything sharp, but water can... rather, modern technology has provided a way forward. Waterjet cutting, or high-pressure water jet cutting technology. As long as the water stream is extremely fine, around 0.2mm and traveling at a speed of around 800 meters per second, it can even cut through objects like diamonds, not to mention rocks and dirt.]

"Xiangzi, do you know high-pressure water jet cutting technology?"

"Huh!? Can your water control magic also do something like that?"

"I don't know, but magic is a world of imagination. Since I can imagine the scene, I should be able to do it."

Chaoyang's words gave Xiangzi a glimmer of hope, and her eyes lit up.

"Then give it a try! It would be great if you can do it."

in the afternoon

RING's recording studio

“These two guys!!!”

Li Xi saw the message sent in the MYGo group. Both Su Shi and Aine asked for leave, saying that they had something to do and could not come to practice today.

"Ta, Taki-chan... Ano-chan asked me to say sorry on her behalf."

"Tomori, you've been taken advantage of by that guy again. She must be just being lazy and wanting to run away. And it's such a coincidence that she took leave at the same time as Soyo. They probably made a last-minute plan to go somewhere together! If you wanted leave, you should have told me earlier! The money we spent on the recording studio will be wasted again!!!"

Li Xi angrily beat the drums...

But then I changed my mind and thought, now I can be alone with Tomori, right?

"Um... Tomori, are you still practicing today? Or are you going out somewhere to play?"

"Ah... then, I'll take a break today too."

Gao Songdeng saw Lixi drumming hard to vent her feelings, and thought that Lixi was in a bad mood, so he didn't want to disturb her.

Li Xi watched Gao Songdeng packing his things with his back to her, feeling a pang of disappointment. She had thought that today would be a chance for her to spend some time alone with Gao Songdeng, perhaps even develop a closer relationship. However, Gao Songdeng's response was like a cold shower, instantly dashing her hopes.

She lowered her head and sighed slightly, feeling a hint of embarrassment and loss unconsciously appear on her face.

However, Riki's initial guess that Su Shi and Aine had made an appointment to go somewhere together was actually half right.

They are indeed together now.

At this time, the two of them had just met in front of Chaoyang's house.

"Soyo-san!?" "ano?"

"Why are you here?!"

The two of them spoke the same words at this moment as if they were sisters with telepathic connection, but Su Shi was the first to calm down. After coughing, she frowned and spoke first.

"You explained to me last time that you had nothing to do with him, but why did you come to his house so brazenly? Are you trying to become a rich wife?"

"Hey? Soyo-san? I just... He said he would compensate me, but he only made half of his atonement... He hasn't shown up in a few days. Soyo-san, you..."

"I just wanted to ask him about Saki-chan and see if he knew anything about it. That's all."

But Aine reacted immediately and covered her mouth with her hands while laughing.

"Hey~~Really?"

Seeing Aiyin's expression of "I understand everything", Su Shi said angrily

"Don't compare me to a vain character like you."

Actually, Su Shi originally didn't want to be so direct with Ai Yin, but today

"Ah, what a joke... I was just joking. I didn't expect you to be in a bad mood today, Soyo-san."

Aine immediately realized that Su Shi was in a bad mood today, so she stopped playing playful jokes between girls.

"Of course I'm not in a good mood when an important friend has been missing for several days..."

"You mean about Saki-chan?"

361. Aine and Suye's little episode

"Huh? What are you two planning to do in front of the Toyokawa family's mansion? If you want to steal, I suggest you do it between 3 and 4 in the morning. That's when the security guards are changing shifts."

The maid who often reported Chaoyang suddenly appeared behind the two of them and started talking.

"Wow!" "Wow!"

Aine and Sushi were both startled.

Only after seeing who was coming did they all breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hello, hey..."

Aine was talking midway when she suddenly asked Soyo, covering her mouth and whispering, "What's Soyo-san's name?"

"If you ask me suddenly, I don't remember..."

The maid in front of her pretended to be sad and said

"That's outrageous. You've been called here so many times by the young master, and you still haven't even remembered the name of the person who worked so hard to serve you."

"...Hey, sorry, but Miss Maid, I think you haven't introduced yourself to us yet~~~ Well, today we want to find Chaoyang and ask something."

When facing strangers, Su Shi instantly switches to being a good girl.

Seeing Su Shi like this, Ai Yin couldn't help but click her tongue, and of course she got a warning look from Su Shi in return.

"... Let's talk about this somewhere else. The Toyokawa family is really worried about the young master."

…………

The Toyokawa family maid's lounge

"Please use."

The maid slowly placed two cups of black tea in front of the two of them.

"Thank you... I just heard that the Toyokawa family is in a state of panic... Could it be that Chaoyang is..."

Aiyin's mind worked quickly, and she immediately thought of what she had guessed.

"Ah, you are indeed Miss Chihaya. It's no wonder that the young master liked you so much in the beginning."

"Eh? Ah..."

Aine was about to retort, but then she realized that she was probably confusing the past with herself and Goto Ichiri.

"That's not what we're here to talk about... Didn't Chaoyang's father do anything? He even buried his own son."

After a pause, Aiyin immediately asked anxiously. After all, she had been thinking that Chaoyang might have just gone somewhere for fun.

But when I learned that Chaoyang was now buried underground, all my regrets turned into worries.

"Of course the master is anxious, very anxious... Although I shouldn't tell you, but considering you are the young master's women..."

“Um… Let’s put Aine aside for now, can you please not include me in this?”

Hearing the maid in front of him say this, Su Shi could no longer sit still, and immediately asked her with a fake smile to change her words.

"Oh, am I mistaken? Then I'm sorry, please leave here. After all, I originally intended to tell this information to the people around the young master. After all, if she becomes his wife in the future, she might punish me for not reporting it. But if not, I have no reason to tell you."

The maid said something rather funny with a deadpan expression.

Su Shi was at a loss for words at this moment and didn't know how to respond.

"Maid-san, that's too much! Even if you have a girlfriend, you should only have one. How can a girl say that?"

Aine put her hands on her hips and spoke to the maid with a hint of annoyance.

"It can't be helped, men of the Toyokawa family are like this. When the master was young, he killed a hundred people before he was 20... Ah, I heard it from my mother. By the way, my mother seemed to have had an affair with the master, but unfortunately, I'm not a illegitimate daughter of the Toyokawa family and have no inheritance rights. I was shocked at the time..."

"Because there is no inheritance right?"

Aine probably knew that the maid in front of her had a low standard, so she tried to guess.

"√"

The maid nodded seriously.

"Can you please stop saying this kind of thing?... And I don't want to know. I'm not his woman... I just want to know what's going on."

Su Shi was already a little impatient. After seeing that the person in front of her was not a serious person, she didn't want to pretend to be a good girl anymore, so she asked coldly.

"The situation is that the master has even contacted the Prime Minister, but no amount of money can change the natural disaster. ... The master has lost hope, so he asked a distant relative to bring him a child to raise as his own son, and now I am serving him. Unfortunately, I have no interest in the little boy..."

"So Miss Maid's target has always been Chaoyang?"

Aine couldn't keep up with her pace anymore and could only conclude weakly with her chin in her hands.

"No, Master is not my type either, but if I can get a promotion and a raise, it's not a bad idea... But Master has always been more fascinated by you JKs. It's a pity that the JK clothes I just ordered were wasted."

"But...it seems that your relationship with the young master is not as deep as I thought."

The maid suddenly changed the subject and looked coldly at Aine and Su Shi in front of her.

"Hey?"

Aiyin was stunned, not understanding why she said that, and Su Shi immediately showed her displeasure.

"...I've already said that we're not in that kind of relationship. And if we're really his women as you say, it's probably because of his money...I'm definitely not worried about his safety."

"Ahh~~ My poor young master, I worried about your affairs day and night, and now this is really the end of it?"

"Soyo-san, why does she feel like we're the bad guys? Come to think of it, she doesn't know Chaoyang actually knows magic and is like Superman, right?"

Aine approached Su Shi again and whispered something. While speaking, she looked at the maid in front of her and finally seemed to understand something.

"Um... could it be that the maid actually likes Chaoyang? Look closely, there are traces of tears under the maid's eyes. She started saying these weird things just now because she was unhappy that we didn't seem to care about Chaoyang, so she deliberately embarrassed us verbally at the beginning?"

"How could that be? I'm just a maid. I've never thought of myself as the eldest wife of the Chengfengchuan family."

“Hey…” “Uh…”
