Chapter 25 Mahjong Girls
“Wow, mahjong is such an interesting game, I never knew…”
“Right~~ In our hometown, we play mahjong during festivals and holidays.”
Zhisheng Luo smiled and set up the mahjong tiles for the girls.
…
In the game room of the Time Shuttle, the girls gathered around the table, learning to play mahjong… It was a game that was easy to learn but hard to master, and besides Zhisheng Luo and Lonis, none of their companions had ever played before.
So everyone was concentrating on learning, and naturally, many jokes were made.
…
“Hehe, I won~~”
“Oh… Su Ling, did you win with the 5 of Wans I played? I really shouldn’t have played such a dangerous tile…”
Lonis sighed. Although she had played mahjong before, it had been “a thousand years,” and her skills had regressed a lot.
However…
Su Ling shook her head and said, “Won with 5 of Wans? No, Su Ling’s hand was already a winning hand.”
“Huh?”
“I didn’t notice it before, but it was four 3s and a pair, right? So, Su Ling won!”
The pink-haired girl pushed over her hand, which was a standard simple win. And there was also a three-color straight, which looked very neat.
But, but!
This was right when Lonis played a tile!
This meant that Su Ling hadn’t drawn a tile yet…
“Su Ling, why are there 14 tiles in your hand!”
“Huh? Isn’t it 14 tiles? You need 14 tiles to win~~~”
“That means you have 14 tiles including others, honestly, have you always been saving 14 tiles?”
Lonis sighed, already overwhelmed by Su Ling’s natural cluelessness.
“Hmph hmph, this is the advanced table. Unlike the little idiots at the next table, we are all smart girls.”
Elus smiled and threw the dice.
And as the black-hearted girl said, the players at this table were all extraordinary.
There was Elus, the black-hearted girl known as the Black Nightmare.
There was Isumi, the clear-minded girl and one of the Seven Wonders of C. Academy.
There was Mi Xue Zhou, the genius mahjong girl with elegant demeanor, who considered herself a proper young lady.
And there was Cécile Moon Kolotia, the eldest princess who ruled the entire Kingdom Ming.
(Senior Zhisheng Luo did not participate as she was explaining the rules on the side.)
…
Therefore, this mahjong competition included almost all the masters in the world, and it was a highly valuable summit confrontation.
But…
“Uh, how could this happen…”
“Senior Isumi, what’s wrong?”
Seeing Isumi frowning, Cécile quickly asked.
“Cécile, is the tile you just drew a 3 of Wans?”
“Ah? Senior Isumi, how did you know?”
“Sorry, my vision seems to be too powerful… Even without trying, I can see the tiles in everyone’s hands…”
“…”
The girls were stunned, because in mahjong, the concealment of hand tiles is very important.
If it was an open game for Senior Isumi, then what’s the point of playing!
This meant that Isumi wouldn’t accidentally discard a winning tile herself, and she could see all the tiles in the draw pile at a glance.
This wasn’t mahjong anymore, it was cheating (divine realm)!
And Isumi realized her situation and said, “One eye patch is not enough to cover it. I think I should wear a full-coverage hood.”
“Ah?”
“Elus, do you use such a thing when you play games with Lonis usually?”
“How could I possibly have such a thing!”
And so, all the girls had a great time playing.
They genuinely enjoyed this novel game, learning from each other and improving together~
Seeing everyone immersed in the game, Senior Zhisheng Luo showed a calm smile of fulfilled wishes.
“Mm mm, I’m content to see everyone enjoying this game.”
“Senior Zhisheng Luo, isn’t this a very fun game? How could anyone not like it…”
“Actually, Su Ling, you may not know, but mahjong is often combined with gambling, so gathering to play mahjong is actually not allowed on Academy Island.”
“Eh?!”
“I can understand the school teachers’ good intentions, but it feels like such a shame.”
“Wuwu, that’s too inhumane. When I become headmaster, I’ll definitely overturn this rule… Boo hoo, why are you hugging me, sister.”
“Su Ling, don’t make a fuss. Actually, Senior Zhisheng Luo just wanted to play occasionally, she doesn’t always want to play this game.”
Mi Xue Zhou hugged Su Ling and patted her little head.
“Ugh…”
“Hehe, actually, mahjong without gambling is okay! If there’s a chance in the future, perhaps we can hold a mahjong competition at school.”
“Mm mm, that sounds really fun~~~”
…
…
After fulfilling Senior Zhisheng Luo’s wish, everyone agreed to play mahjong again later and decided to move on to fulfill other people’s wishes.
But no one would have guessed…
That Senior Isumi’s wish would be like this!
…
…
“S-Senior wants all of us to try the experience of walking blindfolded?”
“Yes, but not walking completely blindfolded. It’s about having a companion to assist you as you walk around the Time Shuttle together.”
“!”
“Because in the future, there may be very dark combat environments. I have no problem with it, but I want everyone to adapt in advance.”
“Ah…”
Lonis hesitated, while Su Ling directly raised her hand:
“Then, let me and sister go first.”
“Eh?”
“It feels like a courage test, so interesting.”
After speaking, Su Ling blindfolded herself and couldn’t wait to set off with Mi Xue Zhou.
And Elus?
She smiled cunningly… This black-hearted girl had long wanted to tease Lonis, who had been getting on her nerves lately.
How could she miss this opportunity?
So she quickly grabbed a black cloth and tied it around Lonis’s eyes.
“E-Elus?”
“Hmph hmph, you silly little maid, we have to fulfill Senior Isumi’s wish, right? So you can’t back down now, can you?”
“I mean, why does this black cloth feel a bit strange? And it’s also a bit…”
“It’s good if it’s strange, because this is the thigh-high sock you wore a few days ago.”
“What?!”
“Does the smell of your feet make you more excited? As expected, even your boobs are perked up~”
Saying that, Elus maliciously blew on Lonis’s earlobe, making the girl feel even more sensitive.
“H-How can you do this…”
“Hehe, hurry up and walk.”
Urged by Elus, Lonis could only take a step forward.
