Chapter 371: The Ming Country’s Little Sister Was Annoyed

For the whole afternoon, Bai Wei stayed in the sword witch dormitory.

It must be said that humans have a strong adaptability, and they quickly got used to it.

Bai Wei stayed inside the house and didn’t go out, but these enthusiastic girls kept coming in and out.

Yoshine Ise couldn’t help but disdainfully say, "Usually lazy dogs, staying in the dorm with no makeup on, but now they suddenly become exquisite. After staying in the room for half an hour, they insist that they haven’t put on any makeup. And some people, who usually don’t like to cook, suddenly remember that they have this skill and act as if they’re a good wife and mother, making desserts and dinner."

Bai Wei took a sip of water and didn’t comment on it. It’s strange to see less and not strange to see more.

When he occasionally went to the witch village, the witches’ reactions were also similar. Once they found him approachable, they would put away their respectful attitude and unconsciously move closer. Bold girls would pat their chests and ask, "Do I have what it takes to be an imperial concubine or something? I know what you’re thinking, so I don’t expect too much. It would be nice to enjoy it for a few years."

Then she was dragged into the little black room by others and didn’t see her again until two days later.

Bai Wei didn’t think much of it, but the other witches made it clear that they couldn’t tolerate it.

The simple village girl wants to be a queen, but she doesn’t know if she can do it.

Bai Wei also considered his choice for the queen, using it as a political strategy to keep everyone uncertain. He didn’t mind playing games and using this strategy to make the nobles fight against each other.

However, the witches of Black Rose infiltrated and acted faster than expected, so Bai Wei couldn’t use this strategy. The suitable candidates from the Duke’s family were either turned into enemies, discovered and taken away, or imprisoned and exiled. In just six months, most of the eligible girls from the noble families were gone, leaving only a few who were too young to marry. The Emperor was forced to stay single.

Thinking about these interesting events, Bai Wei felt a nostalgic desire to go back in time and continue the story.

In the evening, after Igarashi Shimizu finished her recording and returned to her dormitory, she saw a lively scene but didn’t feel curious enough to ask what was going on.

She wearily walked back to her dormitory, sighing. Along the way, several people greeted her, but she replied casually without much expression.

Bai Wei saw Igarashi Shimizu and greeted her casually.

"Um, hello." Igarashi responded calmly and absentmindedly, then took out the key, opened the door to his room, and walked towards it.

As she walked to the entrance, about to take off her shoes, she suddenly froze… Did she just see someone?

Her neck was stiff like a rusty machine, and she slowly opened the door to take a look.

Bai Wei leaned against the corridor, watching the sunset and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Igarashi Shimizu："…"

A bunch of words stuck in her throat, not knowing how to say them.

Her little face wrinkled, suddenly filled with a faint sadness that brought tears to her eyes, "It’s nothing."

The girl instantly realized that the young man seemed to not even notice her existence, or if he did, it was only as a friend, nothing special. Her teenage emotions couldn’t bear this severe blow, and she began to babble, wanting to collapse on the bed and sleep to release the frustration in her heart that could curse ten times the resentment of Gojo Satoru.

"By the way," Bai Wei said, "There’s some tea and pastries in the room, they are left for you."

Igarashi looked up, his features regaining their radiance in the sunlight, and his eyes gradually came back to life from being dull, "Left for me?"

"Hmm," Bai Wei wanted to say, "left by your best friend," but stopped himself.

"Thank you." She sounded happy again, her eyes and expression regained their liveliness.

Bai Wei put his hands together and said, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry…"

The sky was finally getting dark. Bai Wei checked the time and borrowed a phone to call the Dragon Sakura Club again.

"This is Dragon Sakura."

"It’s me."

"Please hold on…" There was a short pause on the phone for a few seconds, and then another person answered, "Hello, hello. This is Xue Hanlei, the owner of Dragon Sakura. What can I help you with? Press 1 for high-end drinks, press 2 for delivery, press 3 for free chat, press 4 for emotional counseling, press 5 for matchmaking fortune-telling, press the # key for foreign language service, hang up directly for complaints and reports~"

The tone was cheerful as always, even lively. Are all dragons so energetic?

"Have you made up your mind, guest? If you want to chat, there’s a beautiful lady from the Ming Country next to you, nicknamed ‘Silent and Fierce True Goddess’," Xue Hanlei asked eagerly, "Make a decision quickly."

"Even if I want to chat with someone, I wouldn’t choose a woman over a hundred years old and an air conditioner that can only be set to cooling mode."

"Wow? This sentence of yours is really brave. What gave you such courage? The telephone wire?"

"Do you think I called twice because I was bored?"

"No empty visits to the holy temple. Of course, there must be someone. Ha, men, they’re only useful when they’re needed, otherwise they don’t even bother to say hello." Xue Hanlei performed, all acting, without any emotional investment. "Clearly, the last time you even called me ‘sweetie’…"

Bai Wei, "…tsk…"

"Alright, alright, let’s stop playing. Don’t hang up, okay?" Xue Hanlei stopped at the mention of it. "So, what’s the matter? Last time, you rescued a panda and a Demon Kingdom princess. This time, did you rescue a cybertonian alien?"

"No, it’s that I’ve encountered trouble."

"Oh… Isn’t Godzilla waking up?"

"I’ve been targeted by the Yingzhou police. They’ve deployed a mobile task force." Bai Wei summed it up concisely.

Xue Hanlei briefly fell silent, then asked, "Did you try to rob the central bank of Yingzhou?"

"Why is your first reaction always that I am going to rob a bank? Do I look so desperate for money?"

Xue Hanlei continued, "Because you seem very interested in stockings."

"What kind of logic is that? Just because someone is interested in stockings, does that mean they have to rob a bank? I can’t believe it…"

Bai Wei was shocked, "What a wicked woman, trying to trick me into wearing stockings."

Xue Hanlei said, "Hmm?"

Bai Wei said, "Hmm?"

"I feel like during our conversation just now, our thoughts were like two trains on parallel tracks… Xue Hanlei took a sip of her sparkling drink and let out an ungainly belch. "So… do you prefer black stockings or white stockings?"

"That’s not the point," Bai Wei said.

"So you really do like stockings."

"I…" Bai Wei didn’t finish his sentence, and Xue Hanlei immediately pressed her hand against the receiver. She gave a subtle smile to the fairy beside her, then looked down at Miss Yun’s long pants and sneakers, showing a disappointed glance.

Yun Wuxin had no expression on her face. "Let’s talk about the matter… why is the police keeping an eye on you?"

"I don’t know," Bai Wei replied. "I suppose some people are targeting me, and they are taking significant actions, even deploying the Shogunate samurai."

Xue Hanlei heard this and restrained her playful laughter. "Those executioners, Sword Hunters? Are you sure?"

"I just took down one of them, there’s no mistake," Bai Wei replied. "Even the Shogunate is involved, which makes me think the situation may be more serious."

"When the Warrior Society intervenes, it’s equivalent to the Jin Yi Wei from the Ming Country stepping in. The problem becomes quite serious," Xue Hanlei said, unable to understand. "What’s going on?"

"I don’t know," Bai Wei said. "Based on speculations, it might be an evil god."

"An evil god? From Goryeo Island? But someone like an evil god is also busy with many responsibilities. Why would they come after you? Do you have a grudge with them?"

"…Yes."

"Hmm? What have you been doing?" Xue Hanlei asked curiously.

"… I foiled a plot at Far East University, had a encounter with an evil god from another world, kicked him hard, and destroyed a stronghold in Edo. Even if I couldn’t uproot it completely, I must have caused some serious damage. How is it possible for them to recover so quickly?"

"I didn’t do much," replied Bai Wei. "What I did doesn’t really matter, what matters is…"

"So, your safety is guaranteed, right? I’m quite professional; Dragon Sakura is very safe," Xue Hanlei asked. "Where are you now?"

"I’m at the shrinesword witch dormitory."

"Say it again… Where?" Xue Hanlei’s tone changed.

"I’m at the sword witch dormitory."

"Both shrinesword witch and sword witch are female, right?"

"Yes, that’s why it’s easy to blend in. They are very welcoming and understanding," Bai Wei added. "It’s quite comfortable being there."

"Snap… Xue Hanlei’s chopsticks broke in half and her mood instantly turned ugly. Why didn’t you come to me directly?"

"I called…"

"Why didn’t you come straight to Far East University? It’s all girls’ dormitories. Do you care which one I’m in?"

"I…" Bai Wei thought, "Maybe everyone around here is being monitored."

Just as he was about to explain, a voice came from the side. Several sword witches greeted him enthusiastically, "Mr. Bai, it’s time to eat. We’re having hot pot, barbecue, and we’ve prepared a vacant room with bedding. Come quickly!"

Holding the phone, Bai Wei stayed silent for three seconds. "Like I said before, they are very enthusiastic."

"Snap…" Yun Wuxin’s chopsticks also broke, and you could tell they were truly enthusiastic.

Xue Hanlei and Yun Wuxin fell silent at the same time, only the temperature dropped and blood pressure rose. This, oh this, was the Ming Country girls breaking through the defenses.
