Chapter 16: Mine part 1
Yun Yingzhi’s spirit jolted, and his “sleepy bugs” vanished instantly.
His eyelid skipped wildly as he instinctively looked toward the classroom door, but he didn’t see His Highness Elvis.
The student added, “His Highness is waiting for you outside.”
Yun Yingzhi’s heart thudded in his chest. He hesitated for a moment before standing up and, amidst the whispered speculations of his classmates, walked out of the classroom nervously and tentatively.
Like his gossiping classmates, he was also curious: Why did His Highness Elvis come to find me?
Theoretically, they didn’t know each other…
Right?
Almost the instant he walked out, he saw the back of His Highness Elvis standing in the hallway, looking out the window.
As if sensing something, Elvis turned his head, and his cold violet eyes met Yun Yingzhi’s.
Yun Yingzhi: “…”
Before yesterday, Yun Yingzhi’s impression of Elvis was that they had never had any contact, so he didn’t understand why Elvis had come to find him.
Yun Yingzhi respectfully greeted Elvis.
Elvis gave a slight nod, but didn’t speak.
Many students in the hallway looked over with curious eyes.
With less than ten minutes left before class, Yun Yingzhi asked, “His Highness Elvis, is there something you need me for?”
Elvis looked into Yun Yingzhi’s eyes and said, “Sixteen years ago, I lost a little rabbit.” His voice carried no emotion.
Yun Yingzhi thought: I was three years old back then.
He pursed his lips and didn’t speak.
Elvis paused, then added, “Yesterday, I lost another little rabbit.”
Yun Yingzhi’s cheeks turned red and hot uncontrollably. He forced himself to stay calm and replied, “It seems you really like little rabbits.” But why are you telling me this?
Did His Highness discover something? As soon as he thought of this, Yun Yingzhi felt like his scalp was about to explode.
Elvis said, “…Not quite.”
Hearing this, Yun Yingzhi let out a sigh of relief.
In the next moment, he heard Elvis say, “I like them very much.”
Yun Yingzhi: “…”
Elvis said, “It’s mine.”
Yun Yingzhi was stunned and didn’t regain his senses for a long time.
Seeing that class was about to start and the warning bell had rung, Elvis said, “Go inside.”
Yun Yingzhi was in a daze as his body moved stiffly back into the classroom, his whole person completely out of it.
He didn’t understand at all. What did Elvis mean?
What did he mean by “it’s mine”?
Sixteen years ago, Elvis said he lost a little rabbit?
Sixteen years ago, Yingzhi was also only three years old, and his second form back then was just a tiny ball of a rabbit.
The memory was blurred.
However, what he did remember was that perhaps because his second form looked like it had no aggression and was a tiny “milk rabbit,” he had heard his brother Yun Yinghui say that many children had liked him very much back then.
At that time, there were always children who wanted to “steal” him and take him home—the human form as a “child bride” or “child groom,” and the second form as the best “moe partner.”
It was also because Yun Yingzhi’s childhood second form was too cute that for a time, the “little white rabbit” second form became the “dream rabbit” of many children on the Imperial Star. Even now, many people still considered the “past him” as their dream rabbit.
Yun Yingzhi shook his head, forcing himself not to think too much.
But…
He vaguely felt that His Highness Elvis might be very difficult to deal with.
How annoying.
Yun Yingzhi sat in his seat, and in the next moment, his classmates swarmed over, asking why His Highness Elvis had come to see him.
Yun Yingzhi’s eyelid jumped as he shook his head, saying he didn’t know.
Another classmate asked, “What did His Highness say to you?”
Before Yun Yingzhi could answer, a student said, “His Highness told Yingzhi that he has a beloved little white rabbit.”
Another student said, “I heard it’s lost.”
“Is it really because Yingzhi’s second form is so similar to His Highness’s little white rabbit?”
Suddenly, a student looked straight at Yun Yingzhi, suspicion in their eyes and a testing tone in their voice, “Yingzhi, you wouldn’t happen to be that little white rabbit His Highness was holding yesterday, would you?”
Yun Yingzhi: “…”
Yun Yingzhi was horrified. His spine felt cold, and the fur all over his body stood up. He blinked his large ink-black eyes and, forcing himself to stay calm, said, “How could that be? I’m not.” He paused and, to make his denial more persuasive, added, “I heard that yesterday’s little white rabbit was a particularly…” He paused again. “…a particularly ‘shameless’ little pervert rabbit that even proactively nuzzled His Highness and clung to him. How could that be me?”
Yun Yingzhi forced a smile, though in reality, beads of cold sweat were forming on his forehead.
Living is too hard.
A student immediately followed Yun Yingzhi’s words and said with a smile, “True, true! That little white rabbit yesterday was truly ‘something else’ (Jue Jue Zi); it did what everyone wanted to do but didn’t dare. Although your second form is very similar, it couldn’t possibly be you!”
Yun Yingzhi: “…” He was smiling on the surface, but internally he was weeping blood and tears (QAQ).
“Makes sense.”
“But, the resemblance is truly uncanny…”
As the class bell rang, the students scattered, and Yun Yingzhi let out a sigh of relief.
The first class began.
No longer thinking about His Highness Elvis’s lost “dream rabbit,” Yun Yingzhi looked forward to 8:00 PM tonight.
Time passed quickly, and in a flash, it was 7:30 PM.
Yun Yingzhi and the other four took their change of clothes, walked out of the dorm, and “sneaked” into the senior dormitory area.
On the way, Yu Feiwen looked at Yun Yingzhi and said, “Yingzhi, you should still transform into your second form. Our second forms are all quite large, so we have no choice, but your second form is small and won’t draw much attention.”
If it were in the past, Yun Yingzhi wouldn’t have cared, but considering that Wei Yuanqing had asked him several serious questions about his second form, he didn’t want to face Wei Yuanqing in that form again.
Yun Yingzhi firmly refused Yu Feiwen’s suggestion.
The three roommates felt that while Yun Yingzhi had never been very willing to transform into his second form in the past, they weren’t sure if something had happened, but he seemed even more unwilling now.
Suddenly, the three of them had a synchronized thought.
They thought of His Highness Elvis’s little white rabbit that looked exactly like Yun Yingzhi’s second form.
The three paused and looked at each other, exchanging looks.
Yu Feiwen: …No way?
Ji Xiaobo: …Probably not?
Jing Haomiao: …Definitely not?
All three turned suspicious gazes toward Yun Yingzhi.
Yun Yingzhi felt the strange looks from the three and asked, “What’s wrong?”
The three said almost in unison, “Nothing.”
Yun Yingzhi: “…Oh.” His eyelid jumped. He subtly had an uneasy feeling. He felt a bit of an “itch” in his throat and wanted to say “it wasn’t me,” but he held it back with strong willpower.
As soon as I say it, I’ll look guilty (Ci Di Wu Yin).
Around 7:40 PM, the four arrived at the agreed-upon location to meet Wei Yuanqing.
To avoid drawing unnecessary attention, the four found a patch of shade to hide in.
At 8:00 PM sharp, Wei Yuanqing met up with them.
Wei Yuanqing said, “Follow me.”
The four followed behind Wei Yuanqing.
Wei Yuanqing led them toward a hidden spot.
It was only now that Yun Yingzhi and the others learned that there were many “tricks” to sneaking out of the academy.
Looking up at the sky from where they stood, it seemed like there was nothing there, but to prevent students from skipping school and to protect these geniuses from sudden attacks, a thick energy layer was established around the academy’s airspace.
If anyone tried to break out, they would first be blocked by the energy layer.
Multiple attempts to break through the energy layer in the same area would trigger the Fense Academy’s automated defense system. As the number of attempts increased, the intensity of the attacks would grow stronger each time.
At the same time, the academy’s security and enforcement teams would be dispatched immediately to catch the students who tried to violate school discipline.
Wei Yuanqing informed the four, “The protective shield surrounding the entire academy undergoes energy replenishment twice a day. The changeover time is about ten minutes. It refreshes randomly after 8:00 PM. At this time, the energy layer enters a semi-dormant state, which is the most suitable time for us to escape.”
Yun Yingzhi’s eyelid jumped as he asked, “…Then what do we do when we come back?”
