On Tuesday, as soon as Luo Wei entered the classroom, he heard a buzz of discussions.
Various expressions of shock were written on his classmates' faces. Without saying much, everyone was talking about yesterday's shocking explosion news.
The impact of the explosion far exceeded expectations. Not only did it make the front-page headlines of all morning newspapers, but after public opinion fermented, besides grief and mourning, it produced another consequence that gave officials a headache.
That was — the people of Saint Callen and several other major cities developed a fear of transportation vehicles, worried that any magically-powered vehicle might suddenly explode.
Many students were even late because of this.
The reason for their tardiness was that their parents were afraid to let them take the commuter bus, choosing instead to use horse carriages or walk to school.
Luo Wei listened to their low discussions, his brows slightly furrowed.
It seemed he had caught something very unusual in his mind.
After pondering in his seat for a while and greeting his female desk mate who had just arrived, Luo Wei glanced around the classroom.
The transfer student "Tina" was busy with something at her desk.
Curious, Luo Wei walked over and found Helena still holding yesterday's notebook, propping her chin up, writing something with an extremely serious expression.
She was so focused that she hadn't noticed his approach.
Luo Wei secretly peeked.

...
Unconsciously, Luo Wei recalled what he had said to her that day in the basement.
To let her experience what girls her age should enjoy in life, to help her fulfill wishes she couldn't fulfill before.
Helena had taken every word carefully to heart.
Luo Wei watched the girl who was buried in her writing with a satisfied expression. The current Helena had really changed a lot.
She had improved, gradually becoming the kind of sweet sister Luo Wei had idealized in his mind.
That's wonderful.
"Brother! What are you looking at?!" Helena finally discovered Luo Wei's peeping and hurriedly covered her little notebook.
Her cheeks instantly turned bright red.
She pouted and complained: "How could brother look at my things without permission! What did you see..."
"Huh?" Luo Wei was stunned, "I didn't see anything?"
Helena stared at Luo Wei's eyes with slight suspicion.
"Brother really didn't see anything?"
Luo Wei nodded, "I just caught a glimpse, didn't even read the words before you covered it."
Helena angrily hid her little notebook away.
Then she propped up her chin, turned her head away, not wanting to pay attention to her brother anymore.
Luo Wei secretly laughed, really having that peculiar feeling of a parent sneaking a peek at their child's diary.
He smiled and changed the subject.
"Um..."
"How long do you plan to use this identity as Tina?"
Helena finally turned her head back.
Luo Wei looked at her seriously. If she hadn't had enough fun yet, it would actually be quite troublesome...
Because of the airship explosion case, the whole city was under martial law. As the capital, Saint Callen had deployed many police forces from across the country to conduct house-to-house investigations. Helena's kidnapping of Tina would eventually be exposed.
"Hmm..." Her blue eyes rolled around, "There's still one item left... walking home from school with brother, so Helena will return the identity to Tina tomorrow."
"That's good..." Luo Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, brother."
"What?"
Helena stared at him with a serious expression, "Can you..."
"Kill that woman in our house?"
"Huh?" Luo Wei was stunned.
Looking carefully at Helena again, she was staring at him without blinking, seemingly serious.
"Well..."
Luo Wei hesitated: "I'm not lying to you, but there are many things involved..."
"Hmph!" Helena immediately buried her head and her voice became muffled.
"Whenever you say 'I'm not lying to you,' you're definitely lying... I hate it most when brother lies to me..."
Luo Wei looked at her helplessly. Let alone whether he could bring himself to harm Teacher Evelyn after spending so much time together...
If he really did as she wished, with the contained object's disappearance, his power would also disappear, which was unacceptable for Luo Wei who yearned for supernatural powers.
Both emotionally and rationally, he wouldn't agree to Helena's request.
So Helena was angry.
After school, walking home together, she followed behind Luo Wei with a sulky expression, not saying a word.
After getting off the commuter bus and arriving at the old mansion, that resentful aura behind him still hadn't dissipated.
Luo Wei smiled helplessly.
"We're home now, won't you come in for something to eat?"
He had hoped to lure Helena home, but when he turned around, she had completely disappeared.
"She runs so fast..." Luo Wei silently watched the shadow that had darted into the alley.
She was very afraid of this building. After the containment facility was reactivated, Helena would probably never willingly return to the old mansion.
But facing the current Helena, he didn't want to use the same rough methods as Evelyn...
It was indeed a headache-inducing problem.
The troubled Luo Wei opened the door, looked inside, and suddenly became even more troubled.
A choking dense smoke spread throughout the old mansion's living room, instantly hitting him in the face when he opened the door.
Luo Wei immediately started coughing, fanning with his hand while looking toward the direction of the smoke.
He had thought Evelyn might be up to some tricks at home again, possibly trying to escape by setting fire to his house, but upon closer inspection...
It turned out Evelyn was cooking in the kitchen.
"My goodness! What on earth are you doing??"
Luo Wei hurriedly walked over in shock, and Evelyn, whose face was blackened by smoke, gave him an embarrassed smile.
"You always come back so late."
"I was starving..."
"I saw food in the cabinet and thought I'd try cooking myself..."
She awkwardly brushed her messy hair, "Who knew... human food looks simple but is really quite difficult to make..."
Luo Wei looked around, his gaze passing over the smoke-blackened kitchen, the messy pots and pans, finally stopping on the frying pan in her hands...
Then his eyes widened in shock.
"What is this thing?"
Evelyn laughed sheepishly.
"It's supposed to be a steak..."
Luo Wei frowned at the black mass, which seemed to have completely carbonized.
"Did you not use oil?"
"I didn't know..." Evelyn pondered troubledly, "Only after it turned black did I remember there was something about using oil, so I added some... but then the fire just got bigger..."
"Teacher, please stay away from my kitchen..." Luo Wei held his head and sighed, what a mess...
Ever since Evelyn gained human taste buds, it was as if she had discovered a whole new world.
Every day she would urge Luo Wei to try something new, buying her all kinds of different flavored foods.
This was originally a good thing, as Luo Wei had planned it this way, after all, he didn't want to come home every day to see that reproachful look of a neglected wife...
But he hadn't expected that this vampire lady who had never lifted a finger before, this different species who had just learned to eat human food, would dare to challenge such an advanced skill as "cooking."
He had really thought too much of her.
Luo Wei snatched the pan from her hands and turned off the fire.
Then he crossed his arms and looked at her speechlessly.
Evelyn mumbled while rubbing her stomach.
"Hungry..."
Luo Wei glared at her in exasperation, "You've destroyed the kitchen, what can we eat now?"
Evelyn gazed at him softly, still saying:
"Hungry..."
Luo Wei finally let out a helpless sigh.
"Let's go, we'll eat out."
