After returning home, Huai Shi and Crow squatted in the basement to discuss until midnight, and then they started to act separately the next day.

It turned out that committing crimes was a skill.

Especially when you are being closely monitored by the authorities.

The two of them finally decided on their respective tasks. Crow would prepare the criminal tools, while Huai Shi would be responsible for smoothly and inconspicuously joining the school celebration.

It would be better to be more conspicuous.

Like having hundreds of alibis.

In this day and age, even black-on-black activities carried risks. It was always good to have multiple escape routes.

This was their first time planning a black-on-black operation. They needed to act like they were used to doing illegal things. They were online and in a hurry.

Huai Shi contemplated the steps of the entire operation in his mind. He casually pushed open the door of the general affairs office and skillfully put on a flattering smile. "Teacher Gao, regarding the school celebration this time..."

The room fell into an awkward silence.

Huai Shi stood dumbfounded at the door.

Inside the dimly lit office with the curtains drawn, the man who was panting heavily on the desk raised his head in astonishment, looking at the teenager who had entered without even knocking on the door.

The woman lying on the table immediately covered her face.

In the silence, no one spoke.

Huai Shi took a step back, closed the door, and looked blankly at the sunlight outside the corridor, scratching his head.

"Why did it suddenly become so exciting?"

He realized that his criminal plan might be stillborn...

After taking a deep breath, he tried to calm down and estimated that the two inside were almost dressed. He pushed the door open again, pretending as if nothing had happened, and put on a flattering smile.

"Teacher Gao, regarding the school celebration this time..."

The office remained silent.

Teacher Gao was still lying on the desk, maintaining the petrified posture. He happened to hear the woman lying on the table ask, "Did he leave?"

"..."

Damn it, why were they in such high spirits!

They didn't even bother to put on clothes after being caught!

"Uh, you can continue... just call me when you're done."

Huai Shi swallowed his saliva, awkwardly retreated, considerately closed the door for them, and then wiped the sweat off his forehead under the afternoon sun, frowning and thinking about how to solve this problem.

Since he refused to tutor his nephew's violin lessons last time, Director Gao from the Academic Affairs Office had started to dislike him. Now, with the explosion of new and old grudges, he was afraid of being expelled.

Should he be more ruthless? Take action without hesitation, take out his phone, rush in, and take dozens of photos, then force Director Gao to give him the green light, and maybe even extort a few hundred thousand...

An evil thought arose in his mind. Huai Shi gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and picked up his phone to prepare for a frenzy of shooting. But then he heard a surprised voice behind him.

"Huai Shi?"

Fu Yi, holding a stack of documents, curiously asked, "What are you doing here?"

"...Taking a walk! I'm taking a walk!"

Huai Shi's expression twitched for a moment. He quickly put away his phone, turned around, and squeezed out a smile towards her. "What a coincidence, are you also taking a walk?"

"I'm here to submit the materials and reports for tomorrow's school celebration, as well as the list of invited alumni." Fu Yi looked at him suspiciously. "You don't look too good. Did you stay up late last night?"

"Yes, didn't sleep well." Huai Shi smiled awkwardly.

Not only did he not sleep well, but he also stayed up until four in the morning planning a criminal operation!

"Then wait for me for a while. After I submit the report, I'll treat you to a Red Bull." Fu Yi wanted to bypass Huai Shi and enter the office, but Huai Shi panicked and quickly blocked her path. "You can't go in! You can't!"

"Hmm?" Fu Yi tilted her head. "What's wrong?"

Do you believe that there are fairies fighting behind the door?

Of course, Huai Shi couldn't say that. He didn't want to involve her in this matter. He didn't know how to explain, so he stammered for a while and awkwardly blurted out, "I... Can you stand here with me for a while?"

"Hmm?"

Fu Yi became even more puzzled. Soon, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she smiled lightly. "Sure."

She took a step back and leaned against the wall next to Huai Shi, standing in position.

"Is this okay?" she asked.

It was as if she was really standing with Huai Shi as a form of punishment.

The wind blew quietly.

Huai Shi was stunned for a moment and turned to look at her.

The afternoon sunlight shone into the corridor from outside the window, illuminating the dancing dust and her pupils, like amber.

A quick look at "pawread dot com" will leave you more fulfilled.

Black hair fell from her white school uniform, and in the reflection of the sunlight, each strand seemed to emit a faint light.

In the moment of Huai Shi's astonishment, she suddenly stuffed all the documents in her hand into Huai Shi's arms and smirked triumphantly.

Huai Shi looked down at the documents in his hand, shook his head, and for some reason, he also laughed.

Suddenly, it seemed like nothing else mattered.

It was all left behind.

He leaned against the wall, watching the sycamore tree outside the window sway in the breeze. The fragmented sunlight shone through the shade of the tree, falling on the passing shoulders.

It was as quiet as a bubble.

He let out a breath, and the restlessness that had been lingering in his heart for the past few days seemed to dissipate. He became calm and peaceful again, as if he had awakened from a long dream.

Soon, he heard footsteps behind the door.

A woman came out, saw the two people outside the door, smiled awkwardly, and the Director Gao sent her out, handing her a thermos box.

"I'll go back for lunch from now on. It's not good for students to see you always sending me off."

After saying a few words, he sent her away. Director Gao turned back and glanced at the two people at the door, especially the embarrassed Huai Shi. He seemed to explain, "She's my wife."

"Oh, oh." Huai Shi nodded hastily."The report and list for the school anniversary? Just give it to me." He took the stack of documents directly from Huai Shi's hands, looking at Fu Yi, "Remember to send an electronic version to Principal Zhao's email later. It's the 70th anniversary of the school, we should at least get him to approve a larger budget."

Fu Yi nodded with a smile.

"Also, the idea for the microfilm is good, but the program for the school anniversary evening..."

Director Gao calmly looked down at the list handed over by Fu Yi, then looked up and asked, "Isn't it a bit short?"

Fu Yi seemed to have a plan in advance, "Because most of the seniors are preparing for the college entrance examination, there are many programs from the freshmen, but the quality is not very high."

"Well, I'll help you think about it."

Director Gao turned to look at Huai Shi, "Aren't you good at playing the cello? You've even won quite a few awards. Why don't you perform a piece and show everyone the artistic style of our school?"

"Uh..." Fu Yi was taken aback, and said hesitantly, "Director Gao, Huai Shi is currently preparing for a professional level exam... and, the rehearsals are over..."

"No problem, I see him running around every day, he seems quite free. Didn't he take a long leave a while ago? Wouldn't it be good to contribute to the school with this energy? Right?"

He looked at Huai Shi meaningfully, "You're a senior now, about to graduate. Whether you're entering society or going to university, you need to learn to be more steady, speak and act cautiously, and not rush around recklessly."

Then, he said to Fu Yi, "You'll be in charge of this matter. Isn't there a stand-up comedian who's in the hospital? It's a good opportunity to fill the spot."

Huai Shi was stunned, his mood suddenly complicated.

On one hand, the purpose of his visit seemed to have been resolved without him having to say a word. Director Gao didn't seem to want to silence him or threaten him, just gave him a light tap. It could be said that it was quite relaxed and pleasant.

On the other hand, there was Fu Yi.

The reason he came to Director Gao instead of going directly to Fu Yi, who was in charge of this matter in the student council, was because he didn't want to involve her.

Even if she probably wouldn't know that he was committing perjury, why involve her?

The feeling of using a friend made him uncomfortable.

In the end, he nodded helplessly.

"Alright, since you've said so, I'll do a solo."

Originally, he just planned to blend in with the school choir, but now it seemed that he had to take some risks.

After handing over the materials, Fu Yi looked at him with a strange look in her eyes, "Solo? So you're leaving me behind?"

"Just a solo."

Huai Shi nodded, as if he didn't understand her meaning, "After all, if we were to sing an opera again, there wouldn't be enough time for rehearsals, right?"

"Hmph, I always feel like you're up to something."

Fu Yi took out two cans of Red Bull from the vending machine, didn't pursue anything further, just threw him a can, "Just remember not to stand me up at the rehearsal tonight."

"Definitely."

Huai Shi pulled the ring and drained the can.

The first step of the crime plan, done... probably.

.

The so-called school anniversary, it's just that.

The leaders give a speech, then the successful alumni come out to give a speech, the students choose a representative to read a speech according to the script, then enter the donation session that everyone loves, and finally hold a cultural performance to show the leaders and successful people from all walks of life that their money was not given in vain.

While the school leaders were leading everyone on a tour of the school, the backstage of the auditorium was also busy, the school anniversary performance was about to begin, people were coming and going.

Dozens of students were running around, preparing props and final rehearsals, and the TV station's cameramen were also adjusting the lighting and camera positions.

Everyone seemed to have something to do.

So, the crowd gathered in the corner became particularly conspicuous.

"Huai Shi, Huai Shi, your skin has improved a lot."

"Really? I recommend you try the latest night cream from Mint, it works super well. Look at your skin, don't you just wash your face and apply anything? You can't do that, it will hurt your skin."

"Eh? Really, I didn't notice."

"Huai Shi, Huai Shi, are you performing this time too?"

"Yes, a solo. You have to clap and cheer for me, senior. Oh, by the way, did you change your bracelet? This turquoise is of good quality. If you pair it with an agate, it would be perfect. Both turquoise and agate help with sleep. Look, the skin under your ears is a bit oily, it's because of poor sleep."

"Really? Ah, I've been preparing for the Math and Physics competition recently, and I've been staying up late for a long time."

"I recommend you try this brand's steam eye mask, it's very effective in reducing dark circles. Use it for five minutes before bed, along with the serum I just recommended, and you'll wake up the next morning without any pimples."

"Eh? Really?"

"Huai Shi, your phone keeps ringing."

"It's okay, someone might be looking for me." In the group of girls, Huai Shi looked down at his phone, gave his new sisters a charming smile, "I'm going to the piano room to get something, we'll chat later."

"Okay, okay."

Under the reluctant gazes of the girls, the boy who had seemingly become a heartthrob turned and walked towards the piano room, swinging his head and whistling along the way, then opened the door to the piano room.

He saw a face with no expression.

"Having fun?"

The real Huai Shi asked.
