"Okay." The girl wearing the Lily badge ignored the topic perfunctorily, "Then you will be in the same grade as me. Sorry, you are so short. I thought you were a lower grade student."
? ? ?
I can't pretend I didn't hear this!
"I am Songli Edgeworth. Fifth grade, Class B." She folded her hands and announced her name.
Um?
Isn't that the same class as myself? Why didn't I see her just now?
Although Wayne was a little face-blind due to mild social anxiety, such a good-looking girl should have left a very deep impression in his mind.
Wayne was about to tell her his name and class when Chris's familiar voice came from the other side of the aisle.
"V-n-"
A figure rushed towards me like the wind.
Seeing Chris appear, Geli's pretty eyebrows immediately frowned.
"Sister Chris, a lady, be a lady!" Wayne reminded her in a kind voice.
"Oh, it doesn't matter. Just pretending to be nice at home is enough. Of course you have to be more lively at school." Chrissy said nonchalantly.
It's hopeless, this person is hopeless. Mother's plan to cultivate her as a lady is absolutely impossible.
No... maybe this is one of the manifestations that she is trying to fulfill the original plot. After all, the villainous daughter in the original work is an ignorant girl who is addicted to otome games all day long. It is normal to be rude.
She quickly stopped in front of Wayne, vaguely protecting him behind her, and looked directly at Songli Edgeworth in front of her with her head held high, and the three supporting actors behind her whose presence was infinitely diminished.
"What? The 'Edgworth's Poultry' can't win from the front, so it's finally going to attack my family!"
Chris asked with a very disdainful expression.
After hearing the name "Edgeworth's poultry", Wayne clearly saw Song Li's expression distorted for a moment.
But she soon regained her composure and responded with a sneer: "Sure enough, a monkey is a monkey and does not have human thinking at all."
After saying this, she walked past them and walked forward without even looking at Wayne.
The three followers who were hiding behind her saw that the situation was not good, and quickly greeted Chris, and then hurriedly caught up with Geli.
As if he was afraid of being settled by the queen, he seemed to be running away.
Chris turned around and asked with concern: "Wayne, are they bullying you?"
"No, in fact, that classmate from Song Li helped me out... By the way, what is the 'Edgeworth's poultry'?" Wayne asked curiously.
Hearing this question, Chris burst out laughing.
"Ah↘ah↗~, that's the dark history that someone wants to make the whole world forget."
She pulled Wayne away from the prying eyes of passers-by and came to an independently planned viewing area.
Chris occupied the wooden bench, then patted the seat beside her, motioning for Wayne to sit next to her.
"When she was little, that guy was confused about how she came into this world, so she asked her mother, and she got a reply like, 'You were brought back to our home by a white crane in the sky.'"
Chris broke the news: "Since then, she has regarded various large birds as her family. She even ran away from home and hid in a bird's nest and was caught, huhuhu~"
"Well……"
It's indeed quite a dark history.
"So, she was called 'poultry' later on, but generally no one dared to call her that in person, otherwise she would be beaten." For some reason, Chris looked a little proud.
"But you called her that, and she didn't do anything to you... Could it be that your relationship is actually very good?"
"How is that possible!" Chris showed a disgusted expression.
Wayne looked very interested: "In that case, what's going on with that 'monkey'?"
…
Wayne rubbed his red cheeks, changed into his school uniform and returned to class.
"Eh? What's wrong with classmate Wayne's face?"
"Bitten by a mosquito."
"Eh, mosquito?"
If you don't want to say it, just say it. It's just a few questions, but he actually started to do it directly.
The girl named Kali whom I met just now is indeed in the same class as me, but the seat is obviously added separately, sitting in the last row like me.
"Is that classmate also from our class? Why haven't you seen her before?" Wayne asked the boy who was talking to him in a low voice.
The boy also lowered his voice and replied: "That is the daughter of the Marquis Edgeworth family of the Finance Minister - Songli Edgeworth. She was originally assigned to Class A, but through shady means, she Changed to our Class B."
"A shady means?"
"Bribery, threaten the school leaders, etc." This classmate said something very remarkable in a very calm tone.
...can you still play like this?
Seeing the surprised look on Wayne's face, the boy spread his hands and explained: "There is no way, the founder of the academy came from the Edgeworth family more than a hundred years ago, and every academy council will give a gift to their family. Reserve your seat. Maybe some things that are hard for others are easy for her.”
"Why do you do this? Is there any difference between Class B and Class A?" Wayne asked.
The boy glanced at the center of the classroom very covertly.
Oh, I see.
It turned out to be another admirer of the first prince.
Wayne searched his mind for Asali Edgeworth's role in the animation, but perhaps because of the different style of painting, he had no impression at all.
Probably he was drowned in the vast number of traps.
It is true that there have always been many aristocratic ladies who have secretly expressed their love for the first prince, but most of the supporting characters who can only serve as backgrounds have not even left their names.
The first prince, Richard Masefield, showed extraordinary talent from birth, and was successfully selected as the crown prince. From the beginning to the end of the story, he was a template for a winner in life.
"Wayne Wincher."
It was still a child's voice, but it was already somewhat calm. After he spoke, the volume in the originally noisy classroom seemed to have dropped a lot in an instant.
Wayne raised his head and saw the first prince getting up from his seat and walking directly to him.
"Are you free after school today? As a new classmate, I would like to invite you to my mansion."
The classroom fell completely silent, and the boy who had just been talking to him immediately distanced himself from him.
Inexplicably, I felt like everyone was paying attention to my answer.
"What if I say I'm not free?" Wayne asked.
The first prince looked stunned for a while, and then said: "Then I have to ask you again tomorrow."
"I'm just kidding. Even if I go back, I can only take tutoring under the supervision of a tutor. It's really a big help for His Highness to invite me." Wayne smiled.
The first prince breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you were going to refuse."
I originally wanted to refuse.
But then he thought about it, he couldn't just rely on Chrissy to hold his thigh, the person in front of him also had one of those solid gold thighs.
Well, not to be underestimated.
