Monster Hunting High School

Su Ya lives in the Qingqiu Mansion outside the school and was the last one to be sent home.

After Su Man, the head maid of the mansion, politely sent Zhu Si out, she turned around and grabbed the little fox girl by the ears, carried her to Su Shijun's study, and lit the magic candle in the room.

"Clean the house or copy books, you choose one." The head maid said coldly with a straight face and lowered eyelids as she looked at the little maid who was shrinking into a ball in front of her.

After escaping from Su Man's clutches, Su Ya's ears immediately stuck to her hair, fearing that she would be grabbed again. At the same time, her hands unconsciously picked up her big tail and stroked it back and forth, moaning and refusing to make a choice.

This is her consistent strategy when facing punishment, and it works most of the time. But today, even though she burst into tears for a long time, the head maid's expression didn't change at all.

Difficult.

The little maid sighed secretly in her heart.

"I went out at the request of the young lady," she muttered, twirling the tip of her tail between her fingers while trying to find the final justification for her behavior: "Zheng Qing asked the young lady for a copy. Bo Fu’s essence and blood, I went to deliver the things as a supervisor, and Hank was also present..."

"It's classmate Zheng Qing." The head maid calmly corrected the little fox girl's wording without any fluctuation in her expression: "By the way, Hank who delivered the blood and the two rat men who were his followers came back two hours ago. , and you and Poseidon..."

As she spoke, she glanced at the study door.

In the shadow of the door, a small white head was revealed, peering into the room. It thought it was hiding a secret, but little did it know that its behavior was particularly clear in the eyes of the big fox girl.

The head maid laughed secretly in her heart, but did not point out Poseidon's fox tail, and continued to scold Su Ya with a straight face: "...But you and Poseidon have been stranded outside until now, and you were sent back by the school lecturer. of!"

Hearing this, Su Ya suddenly became energetic, clutched her big tail, and defended: "That's Zhu Si, even if you don't count the school teacher, you know him!"

"Put your tail down!"

The head maid reprimanded: "Have you forgotten what the nuns taught you in the 'Hai Zhi Class'? Don't play with your tail all day like a wild fox, what does that look like! Also, the school's lecturers are lecturers, no matter what Whatever her personal relationship with you is, she cannot lose the courtesy of our Qingqiu Mansion!"

The big fluffy tail was like a frightened snake. It retracted from the little fox girl's hand with a snap, and disappeared under her plain robe in the blink of an eye, forming a faint bulge around her slender waist.

Su Man frowned slightly, wanting to point out that Su Ya's tail was not neat enough, but seeing the cowering and pitiful look on the little fox girl's face, her heart softened and she did not continue to emphasize this flaw.

Poseidon, who was cowering at the door of the study, was also frightened by the head maid's aggravated tone, and quickly shrank out, giving up the great idea of ​​saving his companions.

As the saying goes, a dead Taoist friend will not die but a poor Taoist.

Snapped.

The magic candle hanging from the ceiling exploded a few sparks, breaking the silence that had lasted for a few seconds in the study.

"Have you made your choice?" The head maid did not forget the reason why she brought Su Ya into the study in the first place. With a straight face, she repeated the question from a few minutes ago: "Cleaning the house or copying books?"

Su Ya mustered up her courage and tried to make the final struggle: "It's so late..."

"Or do you want to do both?" Su Man added unhurriedly, as if she didn't hear the four words Su Ya just said.

The courage that the little fox girl mustered up was like a soap bubble hitting a rock, shattering cleanly with a pop.

"Clean the house!" She screamed, hurriedly pulling out a small wooden basin and a rag out of thin air, and smiled flatteringly at the head maid: "I will definitely clean the house, there won't be any dust!"

Su Man took out her pocket watch and looked at the time.

"I can definitely finish it before going to bed!" Su Ya added obediently, clenching her fists in front of her chest, and vowed: "It will definitely not affect your normal work and rest!"

The head maid nodded with satisfaction, tiptoed, turned and walked out of the house, her skirt fluttering, looking like a big vicious moth in the eyes of the little fox girl.

"And you!"

Outside the study, the voice of the head maid scolded Poseidon: "I will accompany Su Ya to fool around late at night. I will be grounded for one day tomorrow. You are not allowed to go anywhere until the lady comes back... In addition, since Su Ya chooses to clean, then you Go copy the book... No magic is allowed!"

Chirp!

Listening to Poseidon's sad cry, Su Ya felt a sense of comfort in her heart - the joys and sorrows of foxes are not always the same, and she didn't feel noisy at all.

There is no worst, only relatively worse.

Just like what the doggerel said: People in the world are complaining about injustice. He rides a horse and I ride a donkey. Looking back at the man pushing the cart, I feel that the superiors are inferior and the inferiors are inferior.

Thinking of this, the little fox girl suddenly felt full of energy, and she twisted the rag in her hand even more vigorously.

…

…

After leaving Qingqiu Mansion, Zhu Si did not go back to the office to write and prepare lessons as she had planned. Instead, she followed a sudden inspiration in her heart and strolled leisurely through the winding alleys of Beta Town.

Beta Town is cold and empty at night.

Most of the shops have closed, and the few businesses that are still open have their doors ajar. The thick glass windows reflect the blurry and distorted black figures of the shopkeepers and customers.

Occasionally, pedestrians passed by, wearing wide hoods and walking in a hurry. The Dharma books were hanging on their belts, emitting an alarming dim light, silently warning every stranger who tried to approach.

The witch stepped on the smooth bluestone and walked briskly through the narrow alleys one after another. She soon left the west area of ​​Beta Town, where there were many tall gates, and came to a world of low shacks.

The streets here are becoming more and more twisty, the alleys are becoming narrower, and the stone slabs on the streets have lost the brightness and smoothness of the streets in the West District. There are many large and small potholes, like the faces of lepers, ugly secrets.

This is the North District of Beta Town.

After arriving in this neighborhood that has caused a lot of trouble in the wizarding world recently, the light blue printed dress on the great witch has disappeared and been replaced by a low-key black robe that is more suitable for the North District environment.

Unlike the West End, which is quiet and solemn, the North End is relatively more impetuous at night. In addition to the hurried pedestrians in the night, there are also frogs croaking from time to time.

Quack, quack.

Zhu Si listened to the calls of the frogs that replaced the singing insects, and a faint smile appeared on his face, as if he had returned to a dreamland, and returned to the familiar, humid and sticky Lake Upos.

Finally, her footsteps stopped.

The witch raised her head and looked at the nameplate hanging on the wall - No. 33 Gudiao Street, 'Sakura Tavern' on the first floor, 'Kini's Magic House' on the second floor.
