"Huh?"
Yu looked around in surprise. The mysterious substance within a three-hundred-ter radius was actually very close to him?
Although Yu felt sowhat surprised that there might be so special mysterious substance hidden within the mutant school and so close to him, since Flash alerted him, he was prepared to search without any hesitation.
"Within a three-hundred-ter range… It doesn't seem like sothing specifically concealed. It should be in the nearby shaded forest. But why did Flash only alert now?"
Yu couldn't help but feel puzzled.
He had been by the small lake this whole ti and hadn't left. If Flash could sense that mysterious substance within a three-hundred-ter range, it should have alerted him earlier.
Or… could it be sothing that can move?
If that were the case, it would be impressive.
As Yu pondered, he erged from the small lake and was about to put on his clothes to search nearby when Flash alerted him again:
"Approaching within a hundred ters!"
"Hmm?"
Yu's heart skipped a beat. The mysterious substance indeed moved!
He imdiately looked around!
With just one look, Yu was dumbfounded. Within a hundred ters, although it was nightti, the area around the small lake was relatively an open green grassland. With the moonlight, he could still see so things clearly. Yu spotted a figure that suddenly appeared not far away.
But when he saw the appearance of that figure, his eyes widened.
"Yu… Is that you? What are you doing? Uh?!"
In the moonlight, the figure revealed its appearance—it was a red-haired little girl that Yu was very familiar with!
Wasn't this little Jean?
Jean also recognized Yu.
Blinking her eyes, she was about to ask Yu what he was doing when her voice suddenly stopped.
Looking at Yu still not having put on his pants under the moonlight, her little face froze instantly, turning bright red, and she stood motionless in place.
"Uh…"
Yu was speechless for a while.
He never expected that in the middle of the night, this little girl would suddenly appear by the small lake.
And could it be that the mysterious substance Flash ntioned… was it Jean?
Although Yu was montarily stunned, he quickly realized it and imdiately dressed himself in a few swift moves. Then he ca to Jean's side, scratching his head, and said:
"Uh, Jean, why did you suddenly co here?"
"I… I couldn't sleep, so I ca out for a walk."
Jean lowered her head and spoke softly. The faint blush on her face was still visible, making her look cute and evoking a feeling of tenderness.
Wait? What am I thinking? Now is not the ti for the Lolicon Spirit to ignite!
Yu coughed.
Fortunately, Jean was a relatively quiet girl. If it were soone with a hot temper and a loud voice, even a slight scream could wake up everyone in the school, making things awkward.
"Oh, I see…"
Yu sighed inwardly.
He didn't know that Jean had such a habit. Well, since he had been seen, there was no big deal about it. The main issue now was to find out if the mysterious substance Flash ntioned was indeed related to Jean.
"Flash, sense the location of the mysterious substance."
"The mysterious substance is right in front of us."
Flash's response left Yu speechless for a mont.
Indeed…
But how did Jean, a living person, beco the so-called "mysterious substance"?
Or could it be that the mysterious substance referred to Jean's Phoenix Force, the gene or blood containing the power of the Phoenix?
Yu's thoughts spun in his mind, completely unaware of the awkward atmosphere between the two.
Jean, secretly glancing at Yu, noticed that he furrowed his brows and thought that Yu might be unhappy. Recalling the scene just now, her cheeks imdiately reddened.
At this mont, she wished her telepathy had returned.
But unfortunately, her telepathy had no effect on Yu. Jean's gaze dimd slightly, feeling a bit conflicted about what to say next.
She definitely couldn't say to Yu, "Hey, Yu, you have a nice figure!" That would be too embarrassing!
Just as she was struggling to break the awkward atmosphere, Jean suddenly brightened her eyes. Seeing Yu's wet appearance, a clever idea crossed her mind.
"Yu, you'll catch a cold being wet like this. How about going to my room and drying yourself? I have a dry towel over there."
As soon as she said those words, Jean regretted it.
Ah, what was I saying?! Inviting a boy into my room late at night to dry himself. If soone sees us, it would be… It would be… (T/N: I an they both are eight, right? Maybe Jean is having those thoughts because of her telepathy. If she had telepathy and read an adult's mind, then yeah she can have those ideas.)
Jean's face instantly turned red again.
"Oh, um, I… okay! Fine! I do feel a little chilly!"
Upon hearing Jean's words, Yu originally intended to refuse.
He could just dry himself in his own dormitory. However, upon second thought, this might be an opportunity to clarify the relationship between Jean and the mysterious substance. So, he didn't refuse.
As for a guy going into a girl's room…
Ahem!
That was indeed a bit strange!
Normally, boys were forbidden from entering girls' dormitories. After all, they were all kids. Although the mutant school encouraged communication among the students, there still had to be so rules.
But Jean was different.
Due to Jean's special situation, she had her own room. She could invite whoever she wanted, and others couldn't interfere.
However, in a situation like this… Yu looked at Jean, this little girl, in a sowhat peculiar way. After all, he had the mind of an adult. Seeing her blushing face, he couldn't help but think of other things. (T/N: Damn Lolicon.)
"Tsk… This foreign little girl is indeed quite mature!"
Yu chuckled inwardly.
Jean, seeing Yu like this, without the need for telepathy, could sowhat sense the subtle change in the relationship between the two. Her little face turned even redder.
But at this mont, she beca less reserved and directly gave Yu a white look, saying:
"Hurry up and let's go! If you don't, I won't let you in!"
Then, with an air of arrogance and shyness, she quickly ran away, gradually disappearing into the darkness.
"This girl, why did she run so fast?"
Yu smiled faintly, secretly teasing in his heart, and followed quickly after her.
