108: Chapter 108 Don't go out, there are terrifying third-tier experts outside!

Jiang You glanced out the window.

After all, he was a member of Class F. Although he often wanted to drop out, he still had a bit of team spirit when it mattered.

"I wonder how Old Lu and Fugui and the others are doing."

"And that female devil Teacher Shen Qing—if she finds out I'm missing, she'll definitely hang me from the flagpole."

"No, I have to go back."

"At the very least, I need to hitch a ride back; otherwise, my legs will break from walking all the way to school."

Thinking of this, Jiang You struggled to climb out of the comfortable massage chair.

"Um... little sister."

Jiang You looked at Bai Lan, who was licking potato chip crumbs off her fingers. A hint of reluctance flashed in his eyes—mostly regarding the massage chair and the snacks.

"I have to go."

"My classmates are still suffering out there, and I have to go save them."

Bai Lan froze for a moment, her two fox ears drooping, looking a bit disappointed:

"Ah? Are you leaving?"

"But I haven't even opened my second box of potato chips yet..."

Jiang You glanced at the boxes of potato chips in the corner, then looked at the lush green radish patch outside the window.

Jiang You nodded and walked over to the pile of snacks with a righteous expression.

"Um, little sister, look, I haven't had anything to eat on this journey."

"I'll help you relieve the inventory pressure on these few bags of potato chips."

As he said this, he naturally picked up three large family-sized bags of potato chips and tucked them under his armpits.

Then, he swaggered out the door and arrived at the vegetable patch.

He spotted two of the thickest, most spiritually potent Tier 3 Jade Dew Radishes.

"Heave-ho!"

Jiang You bent down and pulled up the radishes.

Then, with practiced ease, he shoved the two radishes, which were as thick as his forearms, one into each pocket of his oversized school uniform jacket.

From a distance, it looked like he had two white grenades tucked into his waist, a look that was incredibly cool yet abstract.

After finishing all this, Jiang You patted the dirt off his hands with satisfaction, turned around, and looked at Bai Lan, who had followed him out.

At this moment, although Bai Lan felt a bit pained over her radishes, she still stood obediently by the fence gate to see him off.

Looking at this young girl in pink pajamas with a dazed, cute expression, a wave of fatherly concern couldn't help but rise in Jiang You's heart.

Out here in the middle of nowhere, a young girl living alone—even if she was a bit strong, she didn't seem very bright. She was just too innocent.

Therefore, Jiang You placed his hand on the fence gate and earnestly advised her with a serious face:

"Little sister, take a brother's advice."

"Stay inside honestly for the next few days, lock the door tight, and don't open it for anyone who knocks!"

"Especially don't open the door for those people fixing pipes or checking electricity meters. Scammers these days have so many tricks!"

Saying this, Jiang You lowered his voice, his expression becoming even more grave, as if he were revealing some earth-shattering secret:

"Although that slap of yours earlier was indeed quite powerful and sent that short guy flying."

"But!"

"You must not let your guard down!"

"As far as I know, this swamp is full of hidden experts, and among the bad guys outside... there might be masters even stronger than those two from before!"

Jiang You held up three fingers, gesturing dramatically:

"Maybe even... the legendary Tier 3 experts!"

"A terrifying existence of that level can shatter rocks with one punch! If you run into one, you won't even have time to cry!"

"They'll hang you up, spank your butt, and steal your potato chips!"

Bai Lan: "..."

Her big, watery eyes blinked, and her expression turned somewhat strange.

Tier 3?

A terrifying existence?

She silently compared the Peak Fourth-Order short guy she had just slapped into the wall with her own identity as a Tier 5 Great Demon.

Hmm... This big brother is a nice guy, but his understanding of power seems a bit off?

However, Bai Lan still nodded obediently. The two snow-white fox ears on top of her head swayed with the motion, and the fine fur on them looked exceptionally soft in the sunlight.

"Mm-hmm! I know!"

"I won't go out, I'll just stay home and eat radishes!"

Jiang You watched her two swaying ears, his gaze instantly drawn to them.

He hadn't seen them clearly from a distance, but looking at them up close now—the craftsmanship was too realistic, wasn't it?

Even the pink fuzz inside the ear canal was clearly visible, and they even twitched with her emotions?

Driven by curiosity, Jiang You instinctively reached out with the hands he had just used to pull radishes, which hadn't been wiped very clean.

"Squeeze."

His fingers accurately pinched Bai Lan's left fox ear, and he even rubbed it a couple of times to feel the texture.

"Warm?"

"Soft?"

"And it moves?"

Jiang You's eyes instantly widened. He leaned in to observe with a look of amazement, clicking his tongue in wonder:

"Wow! Little sister!"

"Where did you buy these fake ears?"

"This is too high-tech! Not only does it feel real, but it even comes with a constant temperature heating function?"

"And the mechanical transmission structure is so well-made, there's not a hint of noise—it's even smoother than my massage chair!"

As he spoke, he recklessly tugged on the ear:

"Hurry up and take it off so I can wear it!"

"I want to see if I look as cute as you when I wear it, and go back to scare my roommate!"

"..."

Bai Lan froze completely.

Her face, originally as white as porcelain, instantly flushed red at a visible rate, spreading all the way to her earlobes, and even to the tip of the fox ear Jiang You was pinching.

For the Demon Fox clan, ears are one of the most sensitive and private parts!

How could... how could this weirdo pinch them?

And rub them?

And even wanted to take them off and take them away?

A surge of hot, shamed anger rushed straight to her head. Bai Lan felt like a boiling kettle.

"You... you..."

Bai Lan suddenly took a step back, breaking free from Jiang You's demonic claws. She covered her ears tightly with both hands, her large eyes filled with mist from shame and anger, glaring fiercely at Jiang You.

"Pervert!!!"

"Who would let you wear them! These are real! They grow out of my flesh!"

"Hmph!"

Bai Lan stamped her foot in anger, turned around abruptly, and rushed back into the small wooden cabin like a pink whirlwind.

"Bang!"

The door was slammed shut, and she even locked it three times from the inside.

Only Jiang You was left standing outside the fence, still holding the pose of pinching the ear, looking completely bewildered.

A cold breeze blew by, swirling up a few dead leaves, making the scene look exceptionally bleak.

Jiang You looked at the tightly closed door, scratched his head, and asked with a confused expression:

"Was that necessary?"

"I just wanted to borrow a headband to wear, right?"

"Why are young people these days all so stingy?"

He shoved his hands back into his radish-filled pockets, snorted, and turned to leave:

"Tch! If you won't let me wear it, then don't!"

"Who cares!"

"When I get back, I'll go find Gou Fugui!"

"That kid has wild connections; he'll definitely be able to get me a second-hand one just like it! Maybe even buy-one-get-one-free!"

Jiang You muttered to himself as he left the cozy little valley, carrying two pockets full of radishes and three bags of potato chips, and relying on his mysteriously confident sense of direction, he headed in the direction he believed his main group was.
