Episode 3: Special Physique, Different from Ordinary People, Part One
A few minutes after receiving the broadcast announcement, I stood before the principal’s office.
I suppose this is the only thing that might be different from other students.
Ordinary students probably wouldn’t even know where the principal’s office is. After all, if it’s just a lecture, there’s no need to be summoned to the principal’s office.
But my experience with the principal’s office is far richer. In fact, because there used to be a fixed passage to the Black Street in the principal’s office, I…
Well, but things should be completely different now.
After all, the anomalies are gone, the Otherworld no longer exists, and the Organization has become a mere urban legend.
And… undoubtedly, I’ve become like that person.
There’s no point in overthinking, so let’s go confirm it directly.
I knocked on the door in an ordinary manner and immediately received a crisp response, “Come in.”
I pushed open the principal’s office door and walked in.
In the familiar principal’s office, across the desk, the person I saw was indeed Nana.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.
Thank goodness, it’s a familiar face.
If it were still the bald uncle, I really wouldn’t know what to do.
She was still wearing that professional suit. The difference was that she was wearing glasses, her hair was pulled up, and her attire was more formal than before. After all, Nana is no longer a succubus and can’t hide her true appearance with the guise of an uncle, so her attire would be a bit more formal than before.
“Excuse me…”
“An Juncheng, right?”
Nana interrupted me and said in a confirming tone.
“Please sit on the sofa by the coffee table first. I’ll join you in a moment.”
“Ah, okay.”
It seems I am indeed going to have a talk.
I first sat down on the sofa and then turned to look at Nana.
She seemed to be looking for something.
But I was more concerned about her.
The current Nana looked more like the Nana from the Mirror World. However, that Nana was very casual when she was at home, and her body was practically made of alcohol. She smoked and drank every day, and when she got drunk, she would harass me.
This Nana… should be the same.
After all, the essence of humans doesn’t change easily.
Her appearance, however, seems more… mature than before. Yes, mature.
Saying she looks old might get me beaten. Age is a woman’s great taboo. I absolutely must not be sharp-tongued and ask about it later.
Soon, Nana found what she was looking for, holding two record books, and came over, sitting on the sofa opposite me.
“So, An Juncheng.”
“Ah, yes.”
I put on a slightly self-conscious and nervous demeanor.
After all, Nana has completely forgotten me. She has lost all memories of me.
Of course, Lily still remembers me, but I don’t think she would tell Nana about me again.
“Don’t be nervous. I didn’t call you here to punish you for your behavior in the cafeteria.”
“Ah, that’s great.”
So, I wasn’t called to the principal’s office for ideological education because of my and Lan’s indiscreet behavior in the cafeteria.
I cast a doubtful glance.
Nana crossed her legs clad in black silk, placed her hands on her knees, straightened her back, and her proud bust looked even more magnificent. Although she was sitting at the same level as me, she adopted a condescending posture.
She slightly raised her head, and I saw the emotionless, cold gaze beneath her glasses.
“Who are you?”
“Eh?”
Caught off guard, I was stunned for a moment. Reflexively, I thought Nana didn’t know my name, so I started…
“Ah, I’m An Juncheng from Class 3, Year 3.”
“I’m not asking for your name. I’ve already said your name earlier, unless that’s not your name.”
Ah, right. When I came in earlier, Nana had already called out my name.
Then what was this “Who are you?” asking?
Who else could I be? I am An Juncheng.
Looking at my innocent and clueless eyes, Nana remained expressionless.
“Are you pretending?”
No, no, no, I really don’t know what you’re talking about.
“Fine, then I don’t want to play any guessing games with you. Let’s just lay it all out.”
Oh, please do.
I’m the type who doesn’t understand anything unless it’s laid out plainly.
Nana opened one of the record books she brought over and said.
“I remember all 1825 students and staff in the entire school, their appearances, identities, and backgrounds. I remember all of them.”
“Oh~ That’s amazing~”
A principal usually doesn’t remember all of this. Truly exemplary.
Even I, who have lived for so long, don’t bother to remember others properly. Rather, as time passes, I feel like I’m forgetting more and more.
I often have to physically rummage through my brain to recall things.
“But you are not among them.”
QF SF Light Novel.
“Hoh, your eyes have become sharp?”
Impossible.
How did she find out?
Ling operates directly on causality. The concept of me being a student is already deeply ingrained.
Where did it go wrong?
“Heh-heh, I don’t understand what you’re talking about, Principal? If you don’t believe me, you can check the records. I’m just an ordinary student.”
“Indeed, your existence is remembered in the records, in the data, and by everyone else. But…”
Nana narrowed her eyes and looked at me.
“I don’t remember you.”
“Isn’t it possible that you, Principal, are mistaken?”
“I cannot be mistaken.”
She’s really incredibly confident in herself.
Under normal circumstances, when faced with such a situation, one would prioritize doubting their own memory.
But Nana can directly ascertain that her memory is not mistaken.
It’s simply her being obsessive.
“Although I don’t know how you seamlessly integrated yourself into the campus, what is your purpose for entering this school disguised as a student?”
Without even using polite language anymore, I reverted to my previous casual attitude towards Nana and casually replied.
Since she already considers me a suspicious person, there’s no point in continuing to play dumb.
“Young people nowadays are really arrogant?”
“No, no, you’ve misunderstood. I’m just an ordinary person.”
“I’ve never seen an ordinary person who can brainwash the entire school.”
“To be precise, that wasn’t me. I don’t have that kind of ability yet.”
I spread my hands and shrugged.
Ling is far more capable than I am.
“In short, the only reason I’ve returned to school is for a woman. It’s a very superficial reason, so you don’t have to worry about me doing anything dangerous.”
I don’t feel like explaining again, so I’ll just say this for now.
And I’m not lying. That’s the truth.
But after hearing my words, Nana fell into deep thought.
She pinched her chin and looked at me.
“…Are you here to be a personal bodyguard for a certain student?”
SEA
It seems like some strange speculation has arisen. “SF Light Novel”
“To be able to hire a bodyguard of your caliber, Ji Lian… or Zhao Zili?”
…
Am I being mistaken for a personal bodyguard hired by a patron to protect their daughter?
Lian Bing is correct, but who is this Zhao Zili? I’ve never heard of her at all.
And Lian Bing is the school beauty, so am I the personal bodyguard of the school beauty?
This is completely like a development in a urban novel.
Fine, it doesn’t seem wrong.
“Guess whatever you want.”
“Without my permission, you’ve been arranged to… Alright, as long as you promise not to cause any trouble…”
“Heh, Principal, you can rest assured. I’m a good student.”
Nana snorted, crossed her arms, and said.
“But please, do not lay a hand on our school’s students anymore.”
“Yes, yes…”
Beginning her lecture.
Perhaps because of my improper attitude, Nana, displeased, turned her head and said.
“I don’t know what means you used, but to get involved with you on your very first day at this school, I imagine that student isn’t a good person either…”
“Shut up.”
I blurted out without thinking.
But Nana isn’t the type to obediently shut up just because I told her to.
“What? Isn’t that right? Today is your first day of enrollment, right? A girl who gets along so well with you on the first day must be a promiscuous person who wouldn’t refuse anyone.”
“I didn’t expect our school to have such an indiscreet student. She should be expelled immediately. Ugh!”
“Hey, you.”
Unable to hold back, I stood up, kicked away the coffee table that separated Nana and me, approached her, pinched her chin, forcing her head to tilt back to the extreme, leaving her unable to speak.
“You’ve gone too far.”
I pinched Nana’s cheeks, forcing her head up to look at me, and stepped on the sofa between her legs, pushing it forward to cover her chest, forcing her to lean back against the chair in humiliation.
With my other hand, I took off Nana’s glasses and looked directly into her eyes, saying calmly.
“You can say whatever you want about me, but Lan is not a casual woman.”
Coming back to my senses, I realized my actions were too out of line. I quickly let go, retracted my foot, and raised my hands to apologize.
“Ah, sorry, sorry. I got a little emotional…”
I felt I might have gone too far and asked cautiously.
“…Um, Principal?”
She suddenly looked up with a jolt and then shoved me onto the sofa I had been sitting on.
“Na- Nana?”
What’s going on?
Nana didn’t speak but rapidly drew closer, her eyes widening, her face flushed with excitement.
Her clothes were disheveled, her breathing quickened, her coiled hair loosened, and her pupils were filled with some kind of impulse.
“Um, you’re a little close…”
……..
This appearance…
It’s “that” time again!
But Nana…
She’s not a succubus anymore, is she?
Why would it act up?
She covered my entire body, getting extremely close, but didn’t do anything further.
I felt airflow near my face.
…Is she smelling me?
What the hell is going on…
Just then, with a bang, the door was pushed open.
Someone rushed in.
Lily, panting heavily while supporting her knees, straightened up and shouted.
“…Wait! Mom! Don’t push Juncheng…”
Then she saw the scene.
Me, pushed onto the sofa by Nana.
Both of us with disheveled clothes.
Lily stopped thinking, blinked, took a step back, bowed, and closed the door.
“Ex-excuse me…”
It *is* an interruption.
Otherwise, it might have truly turned into what you misunderstood!
