Chapter 495: Chapter 164 Between Little Wizards_1
As the two bigwigs on the podium were discussing matters and the students below were whispering to each other, Su Ya, sandwiched between them, seemed a bit redundant.
One moment, she was biting her lips, taking small glances at her lady; another, she was tilting her small face, looking left and right at the magical glows rising and falling in the classroom.
As the personal maid of Su Shijun, she couldn’t frolic freely like her peers.
At most when bored, she would stand on tiptoes to feel the shifting and changing of her body’s center of gravity under different conditions—but this small pleasure definitely couldn’t be discovered by others.
So, when the stick figure behind the door greeted her, the little fox lady immediately tightened her muscles and stood up straight.
"Little Fox!" The stick figure lowered his voice and called out, "The little fox by the lectern?!"
Su Ya tilted her head, gave it a glance, not knowing whether she should respond.
Theoretically, in such "informal" occasions, she doesn’t need to strictly adhere to the eighteen rules of being a maid.
Besides, her lady is busy talking to that smoky man, she probably wouldn’t notice her slacking off.
"Excuse me, could you draw me a hat... It’s almost winter, it’s rather cold without a hat." The stick figure, noticing Su Ya’s gaze, immediately perked up, illustrating with bounces and hops.
Initially, he could have asked the young wizards of Astronomy Class 08-1 for help.
But considering the poor "The Wolf is Coming" performance this magical image displayed previously, the classmates unanimously formed a line, insisting on refusing to draw a hat for it—This was being extremely kind already, if they were to follow the perspective of Xin Fat Man and others, they should add a couple strokes of cold wind to the drawing, letting this terrible sketch experience what a real winter is.
Upon hearing this simple request, Su Ya hesitated for a moment.
Honestly, she was more than willing to have a suitable reason to relax her stiff body. But the little fox lady was afraid that the picture might have some advanced magic attached to it. Drawing a few random strokes might not only have no effect but would also make her lady lose face for nothing.
The stick figure seemed to sense Su Ya’s hesitation.
"It’s okay, it’s okay... just sketch the shape of a hat will do." It vigorously waved its arms made out of lines, wishing desperately that the two thin black lines could break through the paper to form two ropes and bind the little fox lady.
"It doesn’t matter if the hat can’t move on my head... I can take off my head and stuff it in." While speaking, the stick figure removed its round head from its body, playing with it like a ball.
The three lonely hairs on top of its head swayed randomly with the rolling of its head, looking quite amusing.
"Pfft..." the little fox lady burst out laughing.
"If I were you, I would never agree to any strange requests from a foreign magical image." A crisp voice interrupted the interaction between Su Ya and the stick figure.
Su Ya turned her head.
The speaker was a little enchantress sitting in the first row of the classroom who looked about her age, but she was already wearing the red robe of the Jiuyou Academy.
Maybe the sight of the red robe irritated the little fox lady’s pride, or maybe the little witch’s age made her feel indignant, she felt she should be a bit more proactive.
"I knew that common sense when I was three." Su Ya lifted her chin proudly and said.
"I knew it when I was two!" Li Meng immediately retorted.
"Seeing you in the red robe... are you studying here?" Su Ya’s large tail gave a slight twitch.
"Humph, of course." Li Meng immediately boasted, "I am one of the youngest enrollees of the top university this year."
"So you’re already a college student..." Su Ya hummed nonchalantly, "Sorry... didn’t notice... I thought a child was playing house in the classroom."
Seeing Li Meng about to explode, Xin Fat Man who was sitting in the second row quickly intervened and changed the subject, distracting Li Meng to quietly push her back into her seat.
"You must be Su Ya, long time no see." Saying that, the fat man forcefully handed over a brand new law book, "Could you, seeing as we’ve long been kindred spirits, help me get a signature from Councillor Su..."
Su Ya didn’t take the law book from the fat man.
There was a look of confusion in her eyes, even the large tail below her skirt couldn’t help but droop.
"Do I know you?" The little fox lady frowned tightly, reflecting deeply.
"Sorry, my apologies, I used the wrong word." As expected of a man who stepped into the journalist’s circle, Xin Fat Man was quick to correct himself, "What I mean is... considering the fortune that has brought us together, lend me a hand..."
"But... do I know you?" Su Ya still couldn’t recall where she had seen this fat man.
"You don’t know me, but I have a good friend who you would definitely know." Saying that, Xin Fat Man forcefully pulled the young cost-student from under the table, patting off the dust from his robe corners in a considerate manner, cheerfully said:
"Zheng Qing! You know him... you’ve even borrowed his little fox! That is, Poseidon, that little fox with blue water ripples on its white fur! A truly clever little thing... I have to say, you have excellent taste!"
Saying that, he even put his thumb up, expressing his admiration in his heart.
Zheng Qing, who was pulled from his covert corner by Xin Fat Man, suppressed the fury in his heart, lifted his head, and forced a smile on his face.
"Hi!" He raised his hand and waved to Su Ya, "Nice to see you again!"
The little fox lady’s eyes widened.
Looking at that familiar face with a red right eye, she took a deep breath.
Zheng Qing carefully looked left and right, trying to find a safe escape route.
Perhaps because of the chaotic atmosphere in the classroom, Xin Fat Man didn’t notice the weird atmosphere between Zheng Qing and Su Ya, and still looked excited:
"I didn’t deceive you... this is destiny!"
"Just send a paper crane if you want to use the fox in the future! We deliver... Poseidon that little guy loves to play with you guys the most, as you see, our ’sir’ is also at ease."
Zheng Qing tugged the corners of his mouth, starting to look for a suitable "Silence Charm" in his grey cloth bag.
Before Su Ya could speak, Li Meng was already drawn over by Xin Fat Man’s words.
"Sir?" The little witch turned around, puzzled, "Who is the ’sir’ you just mentioned?"
This question immediately caught the attention of the two great wizards on the podium.
Old Yao subconsciously picked up his pipe and placed it in his mouth.
Su Shijun tilted his head slightly, glancing at the young wizards who were speaking.
"Of course, it’s our great recipient of the Merlin Medal, our cost-student, student Zheng Qing!" Xin Fat Man shamelessly gave Zheng Qing this title, forcefully patted his shoulder, and proudly said, "... His codename in our hunting team is ’sir’, impressive, right!"
"Old Master." Li Meng wrinkled her nose, not bothering to continue the appraisal.
