The Crow Prince

It was the second class.

Just halfway through, Su Cheng saw a very eye - catching crow on the big tree beside.

And this crow was also standing on the branch, staring at him.

"Quite fast, aren't you?"

Su Cheng glanced at it, then looked at Li Guanqi in the corner and found that she hadn't noticed his little interaction with the crow.

Su Cheng let out a sigh of relief and then winked at the crow, signaling it to hide away and wait.

The crow understood Su Cheng's intention, then moved to the side to conceal its figure and quietly stayed there, neither making noise nor causing trouble.

When the second class was over, Su Cheng told the crow to wait on the rooftop and gave it a small packet of sunflower seeds to munch on.

After the third class, Su Cheng deliberately went to the senior - student area, which attracted a lot of attention. It was worth mentioning that when he passed by a classroom, he unexpectedly found a figure of extraordinary elegance sitting inside.

It was Ji Qingyi.

She was sitting gracefully in her seat, holding an old - looking, yellowed ancient book and studying it. She seemed so out of place with the other girls in the class who were playing with their phones, yet she exuded a unique charm.

However, no one dared to look at this beautiful and stunning girl, not even steal a glance. Everyone knew that Ji Qingyi was extremely sensitive to people's gazes.

Not to mention getting close to her. People sitting next to her had already left their seats because of the strong aura of "keep away from strangers" she emitted.

But Su Cheng's current target wasn't her.

It was Hoshino Yikui.

So he just took a look and then shifted his gaze, walking towards the corridor ahead.

But Ji Qingyi seemed to have noticed him. She slowly turned her head and watched his back disappear at the classroom door before she retracted her gaze and continued reading the book.

He quickly found Hoshino Yikui's classroom and then located Hoshino Yikui inside the class.

Hoshino Yikui was discussing something with several students in the corner of the class and didn't notice Su Cheng's arrival at all.

"Junior Su Cheng, may I ask what you're here for?"

A senior at the door noticed Su Cheng looking around at the classroom door and walked over to inquire actively.

"Um... I'm looking for Senior Hoshino," Su Cheng said hesitantly after a moment.

"Okay, got it," the senior replied, then turned towards the class and shouted, "Hoshino, someone's looking for you!"

As he shouted, everyone in the class stopped talking and all cast their eyes towards Su Cheng at the door.

Among them were also some people that Su Cheng knew.

"Huh? Who?"

Hoshino Yikui was stunned when he heard the senior's words. He turned his head and, seeing it was Su Cheng, his expression changed immediately. He quickly got up and walked towards him.

"Junior Su, what's the matter?"

He amiably put his arm around Su Cheng's shoulder and walked out of the classroom, planning to take him to the deserted end of the corridor.

However, when they passed by the next class, two little - loli seniors suddenly walked out of the classroom door.

They were Cornelia and Ailiya.

The three of them bumped into each other.

"Hey, where are you taking him?"

Seeing the burly Hoshino Yikui trying to drag Su Cheng to the corridor corner, Cornelia immediately stepped forward to block him and glared at him.

She didn't remember that Su Cheng knew this guy.

Ailiya also looked at Hoshino Yikui warily.

"I have something to talk to Senior Hoshino about," Su Cheng said to Cornelia, whom he hadn't seen for a few days.

"Oh..."

Hearing this, Cornelia nodded, though she was still a bit on guard. But she still allowed Hoshino Yikui to take Su Cheng to the end of the corridor.

Only her eyes were fixed tightly on the two of them.

At the end of the corridor, Hoshino Yikui whispered, "Junior Su, what's the matter?"

Su Cheng pretended to look around warily and found that Cornelia and Ailiya were looking in his direction.

Only then did he remember that since the last incident, Cornelia hadn't asked him to play games with her in the past few days. Moreover, she hadn't come to his home to drink milk or even chat with him.

Did she get angry because of the last incident?

However, he decided to put Cornelia's matter aside for the moment and deal with the immediate matter first. So he leaned over to Hoshino Yikui's ear and whispered quietly, "I just heard some noises on the rooftop!"

"What?!"

Hoshino Yikui suddenly widened his eyes, and his face became solemn.

You know, the rooftop was locked now.

"Senior Hoshino has been treating me like a penguin these days. So I think we can go up there together this time to have a look," Su Cheng said.

"Well..."

Hoshino Yikui hesitated for a while and finally nodded in agreement. He said, "Okay, I'll go and borrow the key now. After the morning classes are over, we'll go directly to the rooftop to check it out."

"Then I'll go back first," Su Cheng nodded and indicated that he was leaving first.

Hoshino Yikui nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, and watched him leave.

Cornelia and Ailiya were still at the classroom door. Su Cheng walked over to them and said, "Class is about to start. I'll go back first."

"Go ahead, go ahead~"

The two little lolis waved their hands, indicating that they knew, but their eyes still fixed on Su Cheng.

When Su Cheng came to Ji Qingyi's class, his eyes swept towards the back row of the classroom and found that Ji Qingyi was still concentrating on reading an ancient book.

However, this time, after she noticed Su Cheng's gaze, she looked up at him, then lowered her eyes again. As if she hadn't noticed anything, she immersed herself in the ancient book again, as if she hadn't seen him.

Su Cheng felt a bit depressed and withdrew his gaze, starting to prepare for his plan for noon today.

………………………………………………

The bell rang at the end of the fourth class.

Hoshino Mirai and Hoshino Yikui rushed to the rooftop door in a hurry.

"Where is Junior Su Cheng?"

Hoshino Mirai looked around but didn't see Su Cheng's figure, so she asked Hoshino Yikui.

"I've told him. Maybe he'll come later," Hoshino Yikui replied.

Hoshino Mirai and Hoshino Yikui stood outside the door, waiting patiently.

But Hoshino Mirai always felt that there was someone hiding nearby, watching them. However, after looking around, she didn't find anything unusual. This strange feeling made her uncomfortable, so she simply closed her eyes and rested.

"Crunch~"

However, at this moment, the sound of someone cracking sunflower seeds suddenly came from inside the rooftop, which made Hoshino Mirai open her eyes wide abruptly.

Hoshino Yikui also got a shock. The two looked at each other. Finally, Hoshino Mirai suggested, "Don't wait for him. I think he must be inside."

She was very excited because she felt that Su Cheng was going to confess something to her!

"Um..."

Hoshino Yikui pondered for a long time and finally could only nod. He took out the key and opened the door.

Then the two pushed the door open and walked in together.

Then, they saw a puzzling scene -

There was a crow wearing a red sweater cracking sunflower seeds with its beak, and the ground was full of sunflower seed shells.

At the same time, while Hoshino Mirai was in a daze and was about to close the door subconsciously, suddenly a strange gust of wind blew, as if someone had flashed past her.

But there was clearly nothing there.

"Yo, long time no see," at this moment, the crow suddenly opened its mouth and spoke to Hoshino Mirai.
