Chapter 1590: Chapter 474: Interlude of the Gathering (3)
"...I’ve already sent my mom back to the country, let her talk to Dragon Country."
"..."
This left Bai Yi speechless, mouth agape.
Yet it seemed to indicate a certain attitude from Tong Yingying.
At this moment, after listening to everyone, Sakuragi Hitomi pondered for a moment and softly said,
"No need to rush, I know there will be a lot of issues to resolve, but it can’t be done in a hurry.
"Besides, the most important thing now is still to focus on finding the President and stopping him from continuing the ritual.
"I just want everyone to have a psychological expectation so that when difficulties arise, at least they have the resolve to solve them and won’t be confused..."
Hearing this, Bai Yi blinked and glanced at Sakuragi Hitomi.
How should I say it...
Maybe because Sakuragi Hitomi had always treated her well and didn’t taunt her as a clown, her gentle words had a small effect on Bai Yi.
In short, hearing this, Bai Yi finally quieted down.
But inside her mind, it was still not calm.
As she sipped her coffee, her mind began to wander, imagining living with them and being with Yan Huan.
That would surely...
Hmm?
Wait, it seemed like she had seen this in the if line before.
At that time, why did she feel...
It was okay?
"No, no, no, no... It’s definitely an illusion!"
Frightened by her thoughts, Bai Yi quickly took several gulps of coffee to calm herself and looked at the others.
"So, next..."
Meanwhile, Sakuragi Hitomi rubbed her coffee cup, resting her chin as she moved to the next topic.
She had already shared all the information related to the ritual with them.
And now, to stop the ritual, there was a very clear clue.
"Vice President Sakuragi, you mentioned before that the host of Xiao Huan’s ritual will have a sense. I already have a sense now, could the next one Xiao Huan does be the Little Thumb’s ritual?"
"...Hard to say. You’ve had a premonition since the day before yesterday, but yesterday the President appeared to complete the index finger’s ritual."
Sakuragi Hitomi, resting her chin, deduced,
"This suggests the ritual content may be varied and can occur simultaneously."
"...But so far, neither of us have any feeling, even if Yan Huan performs another ritual, it could only be the Little Thumb or Big Thumb, right?"
Bai Yi counted the remaining tasks on her fingers.
"Which means, to truly determine Yan Huan’s next move, we still need to contact Aria."
Beside her, Tong Yingying timely filled in the corresponding conclusion.
Upon hearing this, Sakuragi Hitomi couldn’t help but sigh.
Even though she had tried her best to avoid it, there was no way to achieve it, after all.
No matter what, they’d have to contact Aria and request her assistance.
This would undoubtedly increase Alvira’s suspicion, possibly even causing her to flip the table.
"Can’t I help deliver the message, Meow!"
"?"
At this moment, noticing Sakuragi Hitomi’s uneasy expression, as if knowing what she was worried about, Meow jumped onto the table, volunteering.
Upon hearing this, Sakuragi Hitomi was slightly stunned and looked at Meow.
Immediately, she realized something.
Yes!
Even though Aria was closely monitored during this time, she was likely still going to school.
And Meow could remain unseen by others, as long as Meow delivered the message to Aria, it would allow contact with Aria without alerting Alvira.
"Right, there’s still Meow... Sorry, I almost forgot because of the previous matter, Meow, you’re still useful..."
"?"
What’s with your babbling?
You’re not secretly insulting me, are you?!
Meow widened its eyes, looking at the relieved Sakuragi Hitomi, full of suspicion.
Hmm...
At this moment, Sakuragi Hitomi’s love for cats overwhelmed Meow’s divine filter, revealing its useless true form.
...
...
"Buzz..."
At this moment, inside the school.
Aria lay weakly on the desk, wearing a bracelet that blinked with light, constantly monitoring her physical data.
She seemed a bit drowsy, remarkably taking a nap in the classroom.
However, her nap was not restful.
She seemed to have had a dream.
"Take it back..."
She dreamed of hearing vague, unwilling words in the dream, dreaming of the helplessness and pain when something was taken away.
Then, she seemed to see the blurred face of Yan Huan...
It was still the first time she saw Yan Huan with such an expression.
"Yan Huan..."
In the dream, she murmured.
On the bracelet, a soft light immediately began to flicker.
But on the other hand, after confirming she’d just been asleep...
The bracelet dimmed slightly, returning to normal.
