Chapter 430: Chapter 291. Bei Family People, Bei Family People.jpg (4000 words)

Though these seven people managed to express the sentiment, "I believe in Brother Beichuan," by going with the flow, Beichuan Si could still clearly sense the unease and suspicion in their eyes.

But Beichuan Si didn’t mind; his speech from earlier had dispelled some of their concerns, and at least a few people were now whispering and chatting, not as somber as before.

That was good enough.

Beichuan Si didn’t dislike living alone, but having to wake up, sleep, and even think, while looking at someone with a face as if both parents had died, was somewhat unbearable for him.

After all, emotions tend to be infectious.

Seeing that they were finally becoming a bit lively, Beichuan Si didn’t hesitate to find a good spot to hang the Shinra Bell, and then, in front of the other seven people, he took Nishijou Kurenai out of his backpack and placed her in the middle of the small round table.

The remaining seven people all looked dumbfounded.

Beichuan Demon King... brings a doll and a shiny golden bell to a retreat?

Is this some kind of hobby?

"Could it be that Beichuan is the homebody type?" someone muttered softly nearby.

This triggered a small discussion among them.

"...," Beichuan Si.

Not minding how he was perceived by them, Beichuan Si stood on the balcony with a water bottle, gazing at the rivers stretching into the distance.

Beneath those rivers, Beichuan Si saw wisps of white smoke rising.

It was said that there was a camping site nearby, and due to the gradually warming weather, many locals were camping around here.

Beichuan Si took another sip of water, glancing at Shenzhu Shihui who had emerged from the Shinra Bell but remained invisible.

She was tirelessly muttering about nursery rhymes.

In fact, she preferred surfing the internet on her phone, but because of the presence of the other seven people, she had to do this.

"Hey—I’m saying... Beichuan, why... don’t we just get our own... room... Didn’t we just make a good chunk of money recently?" Shenzhu Shihui stopped her rhyme, clinging to Beichuan Si’s back, complaining like a nagging spirit on his shoulder.

Yes, after reviving Shan Yuanmu Yuzi, Shan Yuanmu had once again contacted Beichuan Si and transferred a large sum of money to his bank account.

How come Beichuan Si was still as stingy as ever?

Realizing what Shenzhu Shihui was thinking, Beichuan Si casually answered, "It’s not about being stingy or not, the eight-person retreat was the teacher’s decision, and it wouldn’t be nice for me to expect special treatment."

"What...no, how is that not nice? Look at Kurenai... you just put her here, she’s not going to be happy."

Shenzhu Shihui blatantly dragged Nishijou Kurenai into it as well.

After hearing Shenzhu Shihui’s words, Beichuan Si unconsciously turned his gaze towards Nishijou Kurenai.

Nishijou Kurenai was quietly posing as a doll, feeling like playing hide and seek in front of these seven people.

She seemed to actually be having quite a bit of fun.

Taking advantage of the others not paying attention, Nishijou Kurenai even turned around, clasped her hands, and flashed Beichuan Si and Shenzhu Shihui an OK sign.

"...," Shenzhu Shihui.

"Shenzhu, stop always wanting to surf the internet on your phone, or you’ll end up becoming a person who can’t live without a smartphone all day," Beichuan Si said in a flat tone.

Shenzhu Shihui’s mouth twitched, and she murmured softly, "I’m clearly a spirit... not a person."

While she was still grumbling with resentments brewing in her mind, a greeting suddenly came from outside:

"Excuse me, senior second-year students, the first-year students have finished roll-call, the teacher is downstairs calling you... ah... Be, BeiBeiBeichuan..."

The junior girl, who had naturally come to notify them of the roll-call, started to stutter upon seeing Beichuan Si turning his head to look at her, and after stumbling over her words for a long time, she finally deep bowed deeply at Beichuan Si:

"I’m so, so sorry!"

Afterward, hurried muffled footsteps followed as she quickly left.

Beichuan Si didn’t care what the other party thought; after briefly instructing Nishijou Kurenai and Shenzhu Shihui, he ignored the strange looks from the other seven roommates, placed his travel bag in the corner, and went downstairs.

Before leaving, he left a final remark:

"Do not touch the Shinra Bell or the doll."

Once Beichuan Si spoke, who would dare to defy him?

So even though they were very curious about why Beichuan Si was talking to the doll and the air, they all maintained a respectful attitude without daring to delve deeper.

And since they needed to go downstairs for the roll-call, after Beichuan Si left, these seven roommates also departed.

...

The roll-call was conducted by class and student number within classes, and it went smoothly without anyone taking sick leave.

After the number of class members was counted, it was naturally time to cook lunch.

As mentioned before, in order to hone the students’ ability to do things on their own, lunch had to be prepared by the students themselves.

Each group was given equal amounts of ingredients and firewood, and groups with more members were allocated an extra stove.

Naturally, Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai were assigned to one stove.

There were many types of ingredients to choose from; Beichuan Si randomly selected a few, had them approved by the teacher, then returned to his assigned stove—

For some reason, there were many more people standing in front of the stove than expected.

Sakura Miori, Beichuan Huili, Sakurai Saki, Otomoto Ai, Takigawa Nanako.

The ever-smiling Shen Gu Mirai, who had already started the fire, was chatting with them.

"What’s going on here? This is the senior second-year area," Beichuan Si put down what he was holding and glanced at the five girls, including his sister.
