The Only Delicacy - Chapter 26
Chapter 26
As the bell rang throughout the academy to signify the end of classes, the winds loudly howled, the thunder grumbled and the skies darkened, warning all the living creatures that a storm was coming on its way. Many students who were about to go home became extremely frightened from hearing that deafening grumble. Therefore, instead of going home, they obediently stayed within their classrooms in hope that the storm would fade away soon.
No one in their right minds would go home and face death.
It had taken approximately 2 hours for the trio’s grand adventure inside the academy’s restrooms. After these 2 hours of constantly running around in circles, two silhouettes in one corner of the hallway could be seen panting and gasping for air, while one invisible little silhouette could be seen growing red veins in his forehead.
“Jojo… ha the school’s too big! Ha ha We still haven’t visited all of the restrooms yet! Ha Are you sure we are going to the right places?!” While she bent her knees, Nene lashed out towards her best friend as her body instinctively gasped for air like a vacuum.
While she softly panted and wiped her forehead, Jojo stayed silent from hearing her best friend’s question; she was currently in the midst of some deep thinking.
“D*mn you! You women, more useless than a piece of sh*t! You guys are the leaders of their fan base! But, even you all don’t know where they are?! If not leaders, what are the both of you then?! HYPOCRITES?!” Since Jojo stayed silent for too long, Alfred could not keep his calm anymore. So, he cursed out with all of his might towards the two oblivious victims, despite him not being heard or seen by them.
With his present state of mind, Alfred had already forgotten his smug way of thinking a long time ago. Instead of feeling proud of his achievement with finding two birds with one stone, he felt utter shame and disappointment. Unfortunately, he had actually found three stones with one bird!
Therefore, Alfred strongly vowed to himself that he will never trust these two muddled heads ever again!
“HAHAHAHAH! Serves that d*mn cupid right! Ow, my stomach!” One they saw the precarious state the baby cupid was in, all the higher-up angels holding a grudge on him burst out with laughter. Too much laughter. Unfortunately, they laughed out too much that they could not bring themselves to stop anymore!
It was too funny! Not only that, it was highly satisfying!
“Jojo! Ha How long are you going to…Ha… Be a goldfish! Ha ha SAY SOMETHING!” Seeing that her best friend was taking too long to reply, Nene could not keep her calm anymore! This was her best friend’s idea, but it was totally useless! Furthermore, she dragged her into this stupid mess! Who the h*ck could keep calm in this state?!
“Shut up” Seeing how impatient her friend was, angry veins rushed through Jojo’s forehead, as she glared and lashed out towards her best friend while emanating a highly menacing aura.
Right then, Nene knew how dire the state was, because even their happy-go-lucky president had turned into someone completely the opposite! Someone serious and stern like a dictator! Hence, she had no choice but to sadly and obediently shut herself up.
Even the cupid’s back was now drenched with sweat at how high the president’s killing intent was. Currently, he had forgotten how angry he was with this woman. No, to be more precise, he felt like he had never gotten angry with this woman at all.
“She’s no ordinary woman.” The baby cupid thought as he obediently shut his mouth up too. As expected of the leader of my assignment’s fan base, even the members were terrifyingly special!
As the president of the fan club, Jojo had now unknowingly revealed her true colors to both her best friend and the baby cupid. But, that did not matter in the slightest, because there were more important matters to deal with! And if the background was too noisy, how on earth could they even get decent answers from her?
After a few seconds of thinking, the prodigious president finally opened her mouth like the god of death issuing a grave death sentence.
“Tell me all the places that lovers would go to in order to not be seen by the public.” Jojo stared at her best friend with an eagle eye. Right now, she did not bother to mix up work and personal life. That was too unprofessional.
“The locked classrooms, laboratories, clinic, rest rooms, hidden corners of the hallway, inside the lockers, deep into the courtyard” Seeing how scary Jojo’s stare was, which felt like she was pinning her with a thousand needles, Nene immediately replied like a professional; her body instinctively programmed itself not to pant or gasp for air no matter how exhausted she was from all that running.
For if she did, then she would no longer be deserving of such a grand title as ‘vice president!’
“The courtyard is not included. Nene, are you sure that you gathered up all of the places? Literally, all?” Jojo stared deep into her best friend’s eyes like she was prying them open. She displayed a smug smile with an extremely menacing aura as she did so.
As she stared back at Jojo with the same kind of eyes prying open to one’s soul, Nene seriously thought about her best friend’s question. Both the cupid and the vice president tilted their head sideways, forming a big question mark in their forehead.
The two racked their brains and murmured while furrowing their brows downward, “All of the places?”
Right then and there, something big had struck both the cupid and the vice president’s mind, leaving them both dumbfounded and stunned.
As they stared back at Jojo, they immediately brightened up and beamed with excitement. Yes, they had finally found the right place!
As if they were on deadly sync beyond the abilities of luck, they both deafeningly shouted like they had found the most important piece of a puzzle, “THE ROOFTOP!!”
