Chapter 46 part 1
However, Tu Wu had already fainted, and no bunny could answer Yu An’s doubts. With mixed feelings, Yu An handed Tu Wu over to Xu Yening. At this moment, Xu Yening stopped dazing and resumed his deceptive, smiling-tiger persona.
“This rabbit is Zhou Xia’s?” Xu Yening held Tu Wu by its hind legs, dangling it in the air a few times. “Yo, quite fat. Looks like it has a pretty good diet.”
Yu An shook his head and explained patiently, “No, Zhou Xia gege‘s rabbit is Lao Yao, the youngest rabbit brother. This is number five, an older brother.”
Xu Yening nodded slowly. “Oh~ I see. Then how does An-an know which one is the older brother and which is the younger brother? Did they tell you?”
Just as the words were about to burst from Yu An’s mouth, the ticklish spot on his waist was poked by Klold. Klold’s voice sounded just in time, [He is trying to trick information out of you. Do not tell him.]
Right, the fact that I can understand Xenogenics is a secret, I can’t tell others.
Yu An’s heart skipped a beat. He hastily covered his mouth, then lowered his hands, nervously tugging at the corner of his shirt. He started thinking about how to gloss over it, but his brain capacity was limited, and he had never encountered a similar situation before. For a moment, he hemmed and hawed, unable to speak.
Xu Yening took in all his little actions trying to cover up his mistake, and the corners of his lips curled into an arc. “Just a joke. Alright, hurry up and let your little white rabbit continue digging the hole. Your Yunshu gege and the others are still waiting for you to rescue them.”
Such a blunt change of topic would definitely be noticed by another adult, but little Yu An just secretly observed him. Seeing his expression remain normal and even smiling “friendly” at him, Yu An assumed he was no longer suspicious.
Yu An placed Tu Jiu on the ground and crouched beside it to watch it dig. Monday also crouched beside him, while Little White comfortably nestled on Yu An’s head. The three little guys acted like overseers, staring at Tu Jiu working.
Tu Jiu felt an immense pressure. It dug with all its might, and the black mass visibly began to dissipate.
Yu An excitedly picked up Monday, kneading its paw pads back and forth. I can go save Yunshu gege soon! He didn’t know how they were doing right now, or if Zhou Xia gege and his bad rabbit had bullied them.
As he thought about this, Yu An couldn’t help but turn his gaze to Xu Yening, noticing something was slightly off. This person had acted extremely lackadaisical from the very beginning, not showing the slightest bit of worry or nervousness for the students in the classroom. It was as if it wasn’t his students whose lives hung in the balance in there.
Yu An suppressed the strangeness in his heart, turned his head, and focused on watching Tu Jiu dig. Tu Jiu was very fast. A few minutes later, a large hole was torn in the black mass. With a light wave of its paw, the scene inside the classroom was revealed.
Contrary to the brutal scene Yu An had imagined, the classroom actually appeared somewhat orderly. All the students were sitting in their respective seats. Ignoring the terror and fear on their faces, everything looked exactly like a normal class.
The difference lay in the corner: three students were surrounded by a circle of rabbits. The space around Fu Yunshu and the other two had been bitten through by the Great-eared Rabbits to form a black spatial fault, guarded by several rabbits.
The Snow Snake was curled up alone on the other side, having lost several scales and looking listless with its eyes closed.
Zhou Xia held a notebook in his hand, carefully reading the behaviors listed on it. “Mhm… Li Yao…”
Li Yao, upon hearing his name, trembled violently. Intense remorse and fear spread in his eyes, and they instantly turned red. Trembling, he watched Zhou Xia walk towards him, his legs shaking with terror. “Don’t… I beg you, please don’t kill me. I was wrong, I was really wrong. I shouldn’t have bullied you.”
Zhou Xia turned a deaf ear, grabbing Li Yao by the collar and dragging him to the trash can at the back of the classroom. The various garbage in the trash can had already begun to rot, flies swarmed relentlessly, and a nauseating, sour stench hit one’s nose upon approaching.
“Zhou Xia… Zhou Xia, I beg you, I promise I really won’t do it again.” Li Yao’s legs gave out, crying and pleading.
He was only a twelve- or thirteen-year-old half-grown child, his psychological defenses having crumbled early on. He knew the current Zhou Xia was no longer the soft target who allowed himself to be bullied. He was going to start taking revenge on them, and they, the abusers, had no power to resist.
Zhou Xia ignored his repentance and pleas. Like completing a task, he pressed the back of Li Yao’s head and pushed him into the trash can. No matter how Li Yao resisted and struggled, he absolutely didn’t soften his heart.
Tu Yao happily bounced around Zhou Xia’s feet, cheering for him. “Ying ying ying! Ying ying ying!”
[Crush him! Stink him to death!]
Under extreme terror, Li Yao fainted. Zhou Xia loosened his grip, and Li Yao slumped to the floor with a dull thud. Zhou Xia knew he wasn’t dead, but the other classmates didn’t.
They were completely terrified. Sounds of crying and screaming rang out one after another. Their past actions towards Zhou Xia flashed through their minds. This group of young students, tears and snot flowing, cried about their sins, begging Zhou Xia to spare them.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have pulled your pants down and hit you in the bathroom.”
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have torn your homework notebook and told the teacher you deliberately didn’t do it…”
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said your mother is a promiscuous, bad woman who is also sick.”
“I’m sorry…”
“…”
Almost everyone apologized to Zhou Xia one by one, but Zhou Xia’s expression remained unmoved. He quietly looked down at the dense small characters on the paper, placing a checkmark next to the revenge clause.
Gu Yixing’s eyes were complex. He put himself in Zhou Xia’s shoes, muttering, “If someone bullied me like this and even cursed my mom, I would definitely beat them to death.”
Gu Ersheng rarely didn’t contradict his brother. “Indeed, not beating them to death is already letting them off easy.”
Fu Yunshu glanced at the two brothers who were about to defect and said nothing. Because he couldn’t empathize, he didn’t want to make any comments. But he remembered his mission and responsibility.
It was human nature for Zhou Xia to seek revenge after suffering grievances, but standing in the position of a supervisor, Fu Yunshu had to stop him from using the power of Xenogenics to harm ordinary people, even if these ordinary people weren’t good things either.
It was just a pity. Fu Yunshu glanced at the Snow Snake sprawled limply on the ground, silently lowering his eyelashes. It wasn’t that he wasn’t going to save people; he was simply powerless to help.
“Yunshu gege~”
A tiny, soft voice reached his ears. Fu Yunshu was visibly stunned. He turned his head and saw that the black mass at the door had vanished at some point, and Yu An was standing there waving at him.
Yu An didn’t get a response, so he called out again, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here to save you.”
Fu Yunshu was shocked, having no time to think about how Yu An got in. He instinctively looked at the rabbit beside him.
The rabbits naturally noticed Yu An’s presence. But before it could speak out and tell Tu Yao, Tu Jiu ignored any sense of kinship with its fellow kind and headbutted it, successfully knocking the informing rabbit out cold.
Monday followed closely behind, also learning to use its head to ram. Little White rolled its eyes speechlessly and slapped the nearest Great-eared Rabbit unconscious with one wing.
Yu An gave them a thumbs-up and tiptoed closer to Fu Yunshu.
Tu Jiu straightened its back, very cooperatively filling the spatial gap that trapped Fu Yunshu and the other two. After finishing, it looked at Yu An with large eyes, begging for praise.
Yu An patted its head as a reward.
Suddenly, Yu An turned his head to look at Xu Yening. He hadn’t followed him into the classroom but still stood at the door, silently watching Zhou Xia’s actions. No thoughts could be gleaned from his placid eyes.
Yu An was full of doubts. This uncle was truly strange no matter how you looked at him. He was clearly the principal, yet he didn’t worry about his school at all. Wasn’t he afraid the students’ parents would come looking for trouble?
It wasn’t just Yu An who couldn’t figure it out. The bodyguards following Xu Yening couldn’t grasp his thoughts either. One of them couldn’t hold back and asked, “Eldest Young Master, are we not going to take Zhou Xia back to the Institute now?”
“What’s the rush?” Xu Yening’s tone was light. “Didn’t you see that the kid hasn’t done anything major? It’s just kids fighting and playing around. Since this child was bullied before, let him handle it himself.”
The bodyguard looked troubled. “But… an ability user harming ordinary people goes against the rules. If we don’t stop it, the Institute…”
“Who says we didn’t stop it?” Xu Yening raised an eyebrow, lifting his chin towards Yu An’s back. “Isn’t there a little one working hard?”
The bodyguard sweatdropped. To be able to state not doing work so righteously, his young master was truly one of a kind.
Xu Yening didn’t plan to intervene, or rather, chose to watch the fire from across the river, letting these little guys cause a ruckus themselves, taking revenge if they had enemies. When something truly major happened, there would still be time for him to step in.
Yu An waited for a long time but didn’t see Xu Yening come over, so he busied himself rescuing Gu Yixing and Gu Ersheng as well. Gu Yixing was moved to tears, gazing at Yu An as if he wanted to pledge his life to him.
Gu Ersheng warily watched his brother, ready to cover his mouth before he could make a sound at any moment.
“Ying ying ying!”
A rabbit pressing down on the Snow Snake suddenly yelled out. The reason was that a starving rabbit beside it had bitten its tail. Just as it was about to bite back, it turned its head and came face to face with the sneaking Yu An and the other three. For a moment, the three humans and one rabbit visibly froze.
Yu An’s mind went blank for a few seconds. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed this rabbit by its large ears, lifted it up, and glared at it with beautiful lake-blue eyes.
He had tiptoed around for so long just to not attract attention, but this rabbit instantly ruined everything. Yu An was very angry.
Fu Yunshu didn’t have time to stop him, only hearing Yu An pointing angrily at the rabbit, looking very, very fierce. “You are not allowed to bark!”
Meeting Yu An’s eyes, a “ying” caught in the rabbit’s throat, going neither up nor down.
It was experiencing a total internal collapse, unable to understand where this Ushatos cub came from, nor why Tu Jiu was by his side, looking at it with schadenfreude.
Everything happening now left the rabbit completely bald of thoughts.
Gu Ersheng sighed and stopped guarding Gu Yixing. Anyway, things couldn’t get any worse than this.
“An-an?”
