Chapter 335: Chapter 158 Lin • Sea King • Bai Ci!_2

"In your Deity Hunter Group, they must all be your food!"

Eater God commented.

A quarter-hour passed.

Lin Baici noticed that Zhu Qiu Nan hadn’t even lifted her head, her focus frighteningly intense.

"She’s truly a top student!"

Lin Baici exclaimed with admiration, thinking that with such talent, coupled with a Vanilla Padded Mat, she could achieve great things.

"Keep an eye on my stuff for me!"

Zhu Qiu Nan got up.

Back in high school, her things would always go missing—erasers, fountain pens, and even on two occasions, she returned from PE class to find her jacket gone.

During the final stages of her senior year, her things went missing most frequently, especially several notebooks, which would disappear during a single lunch break.

"Okay!"

Lin Baici surmised Zhu Qiu Nan was heading to the bathroom, but a few minutes later, she returned with two bottles of mineral water.

In front of Lin Baici, the academically gifted girl unscrewed the cap and placed the mineral water in front of him.

"Make sure to stay hydrated!"

After saying this, Zhu Qiu Nan lowered her head and resumed studying.

"..."

Lin Baici felt somewhat indescribable.

He glanced at the bottle of water. To say he wasn’t touched would be a lie, but just how attentive was Zhu Qiu Nan?

She had unscrewed the bottle right in front of Lin Baici’s eyes.

That meant the water was safe.

With Lin Baici’s caution, not just Zhu Qiu Nan, even Ji Xinyan, who was slightly closer to him, if she gave him a bottle of water that wasn’t opened in front of him, he wouldn’t drink it.

After all, in their dorm there was a Liu Yu who liked to tamper with others’ drinks, so it wasn’t guaranteed that others wouldn’t do the same.

"Holy shit!"

The surrounding guys looking at Lin Baici were green with envy.

Nowadays girls were all like delicate fairies, demanding guys to be attentive and sweet. Ask them to unscrew a bottle lid?

You must be joking,

it would result in a breakup on the spot!

Yet here was this beautiful girl, taking the initiative to buy water for this guy, and even twisting it open for him...

Damn it!

How badly did they want to beat up this guy?

"Thank you!"

Lin Baici wasn’t pretentious and took a sip.

"Mm!"

Zhu Qiu Nan uttered a nasal sound.

During summer break, Lin Baici had fantasized about his university life.

Attending classes with a girlfriend, eating meals together, studying together in the library—Zhu Qiu Nan gave him that experience, albeit in a strange way.

Gu Qingqiu sat nearby, staring at Zhu Qiu Nan in astonishment.

What was this girl doing?

Chasing after Lin Baici?

How brave!

Gu Qingqiu envied her; the way she pursued love was cool.

Lin Baici read the magazine for a while then wanted to leave. He glanced at Zhu Qiu Nan, wondering if he should say goodbye.

Zhu Qiu Nan sensed Lin Baici’s odd behavior, turned her head, and looked at him, "Leaving now?"

"Yeah!"

Lin Baici nodded.

"Rest early, don’t stay up late!"

After saying that, Zhu Qiu Nan continued studying, head down.

"Am I being cared for?"

Lin Baici felt a peculiar sensation.

Since Zhu Qiu Nan didn’t know about his God Hunter identity and saw him as a normal classmate, Lin Baici felt this was different from the kind of care he received from Hua Yue Yu and Kim Myungjin.

And most importantly, she was his classmate.

"Damn, what am I even thinking?"

Lin Baici inwardly cursed himself for being overly sensitive, stuffed his pens and paper into his backpack, and was about to put the magazine back on the reading stand and leave, but suddenly there was a commotion up front.

He walked over and saw a slightly plump girl blocking the library’s door.

"My Apple earphones are missing; none of you can leave, the thief has got to be among you!"

The girl yelled, visibly agitated.

"If you lost your earphones, go find the thief, why block the door?"

"Exactly, I have urgent matters and need to return to the dorm!"

"You’re being too selfish!"

Some students who were about to leave were now stuck inside the library, clearly displeased.

"Whoever’s in a rush to leave is the thief!"

The plump girl yelled, her cheeks flushed with urgency and her breathing fast.

Her words silenced many students, as it seemed logical; no one wanted to get involved in this mess.

"I’ve already called the police, they’ll clear things up when they get here!"

The plump girl glared at everyone, her eyes wide as she suspected them all of stealing her wireless earphones.

Lin Baici shook his head, finding the woman too foolish. This kind of intimidation was meaningless and would only alert the thief to dispose of the earphones or hide them somewhere else.

The students weren’t pushovers either; they didn’t want to argue with this girl and instead crowded around the librarian.

Lin Baici turned his head, surveying the people around him.

Some students looked up, bewildered, while others gathered closer.

Zhu Qiu Nan approached him, "What do you think?"

"Generally speaking, after committing the crime, a thief will definitely try to leave the scene immediately. Of course, if it’s a habitual offender with a strong psyche, they might actually stay inside the library, as that would lessen their suspicion," Lin Baici analyzed. "Because there’s CCTV at the entrance, if it’s a habitual offender, they would choose to stay inside the library."

Zhu Qiu Nan nodded.

"Go check the CCTV footage!"

Someone shouted, and immediately everyone realized checking the footage could clear their names.

Zhu Qiu Nan shook her head; she knew the library had cameras only at the entrance, and it wasn’t certain they even worked. Then she noticed Lin Baici shaking his head as well, obviously aware of the same problem, knowing this method wouldn’t work.

"The library’s CCTV is only at the entrance!"

The librarian, a middle-aged woman, looked helpless.

Occasionally, people lost items in the library, but everyone usually just chalked it up to bad luck, considering it a loss to avert disaster. But this girl was trouble—both noisy and involving the police.
