Chapter 185 The Old Woman's Teacup
When he walked out of the room, what Uchiha Ling saw was Yukino and Chitanda sneaking around.
"Aren't you two sleeping?"
Chitanda: "Because Yukino was worried that you were still awake, so I came with her to take a look."
"Eru! I told you it's not the case. I just wanted to come over and get a glass of water. Whether he sleeps or not has nothing to do with me."
Chitanda: "Yeah, so Ling-san came out to sleep?"
Uchiha Ling smiled, "Because I have already thought of Hongo-senpai's script."
"real!"
Chitanda took the initiative to take Uchiha Ling's hand like a curious baby, "What is it?"
Uchiha Ling pointed at the clock, "It's already very late, let's talk about it tomorrow. And you two...don't you feel cold?"
Although it was summer, Chitanda and Yukinoshita were standing in the corridor wearing only thin pajamas, so they might still catch summer colds.
Yukinoshita pulled Chitanda Eru over and said, "Then let's go back to bed and ask what the script is tomorrow."
Chitanda grabbed Uchiha Ling's hand and seemed to have no intention of letting go, "No, if Ling-san doesn't tell me, I won't be able to sleep!"
Uchiha Ling was pulled by Chitanda and followed him all the way to the girl's bedroom.
"Actually, it's not that I don't want to say it, but I'm not sure about the authenticity myself. After all, it's just my guess, so I need to find Senior Irisu to verify it tomorrow."
Chitanda pursed her lips, "Can't you tell me first?"
Uchiha Ling sighed, "I'll tell you my guess now, but when I go to see Irisu-senpai tomorrow, I find out that my guess is wrong. Wouldn't it be embarrassing?"
"why is it like this..."
Chitanda sat on the bed, "Ling-san! Even if you guessed wrong, I still want to hear it! You've made me unable to sleep, and you still won't let me have all the fun!"
Uchiha Ling: "Huh?"
It seems that Amakusa Shino's influence is still a bit big, no! We can no longer let the pure Chitanda and that naughty senior Amakusa Shino get too close.
Yukinoshita tapped Chitanda's head, "Don't talk nonsense. You're already very sleepy. You'd better go to sleep."
"oh...."
Yukinoshita took care of Chitanda to sleep as if comforting a child, and then turned to look at Uchiha Ling who was still standing at the door.
"This is the girls' bedroom, do you want to stand at the door the whole time?"
"Then I come in?"
"get out!"
After closing the door, Uchiha Lingzhi walked to the corridor, raised his head and looked at the starry sky. Sure enough, the starry sky at night was very beautiful in farm areas outside the city.
If his conjecture is true, then even an aristocratic school like Shuchiyuan cannot avoid this kind of problem that often occurs in ordinary schools.
Whether Hongo-senpai is sick or not, I will ask Irisu-senpai tomorrow and the truth will probably be revealed.
"Master! Are you okay? Huh... That's good, that's good!"
Uchiha Ling, who was leaning on the corridor and staring at the sky in boredom, turned around and saw an old man dressed as a butler walking out of the house.
Uchiha Ling remembered that this person seemed to be the old butler of the Chitanda family, but it was already midnight, what was he doing out here?
The old housekeeper was a little excited, as if he was worried about something, and then he patted his chest with relief.
According to the "Master" just now, the other party should be talking to Chitanda's father. Forget it, let's go back to sleep first. I am indeed a little sleepy.
...
In the early morning, Uchiha was awakened by a commotion in the guest room. He rubbed his messy hair and walked out. He found Chitanda and Yukinoshita standing in the yard, seemingly talking to a middle-aged man in his fifties or sixties. .
That seemed to be the housekeeper at Chitanda's house, but the housekeeper looked obviously tired, as if he hadn't slept at all last night.
"Miss, something happened last night, so the master and his wife will come back a day late."
Uchiha Ling stepped forward and happened to hear these words.
The Chitanda couple, who were originally able to go home today, planned to stay in Kyoto for one more day.
"Uncle Teng, can you tell me why? Didn't dad say he would come back as soon as possible?"
The butler, whom Chitanda called Uncle Fuji, thought for a moment and chose to tell what happened yesterday.
It turned out that just yesterday afternoon, Butler Fuji received a call from Chitanda's father and told them that they planned to take a car back overnight and would probably arrive home the next morning. He also asked him to hide it from little Eru and prepare to give her a surprise.
The housekeeper readily agreed, and the Chitanda couple indeed set off from Kyoto last night, but at twelve o'clock last night, an accident happened.
The driver of a truck transporting steel bars seemed to be a little sleepy due to the continuous long journey. He suddenly skidded while turning, and several steel pipes that were not tightly tied flew out.
You must know that if a car is moving forward at a fast speed, even if it is hit head-on by a stone, it is quite dangerous. Several steel bars hit the Chitanda couple's car almost instantly, and the driver died on the spot.
Before the butler could finish speaking, Chitanda Eru's pupils trembled, her feet gave way and she fell backwards. Uchiha Ling immediately stretched out his hand to support him, and then looked at the butler.
"To get to the point, are Uncle Chitanda and Aunt Chitanda okay?"
The housekeeper quickly sped up his words, "The master and his wife are fine!"
"It's thrilling to say the least. Although the steel bar hit the car and the whole car was deformed, the lady was fine at all, while the master only suffered some scratches."
"God bless Master Chitanda... But after this time, Master and Madam will stay in Kyoto for the time being and will not be back until tomorrow afternoon."
Chitanda, who was leaning on Uchiha Ling, covered her chest. She was really scared to death by the housekeeper just now.
"Uncle Fuji! Please just say you're fine next time. I'm almost scared to death by you."
Butler Fuji was a little embarrassed. "I was also scared last night. This was the call from Master himself. But I'm fine! I'm fine!"
Yukinoshita also breathed a sigh of relief and began to comfort Chitanda, while Uchiha Ling frowned.
The disaster of Chitanda's family appeared... As expected!
Uchiha Ling hurried back to the room where they discussed the script yesterday, and what appeared on the table were a lot of teacup fragments.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing Uchiha Ling suddenly leave and run over, Yukinoshita behind him also appeared at the door with Chitanda.
Uchiha Ling bent down to pick up the fragments of the ancient teacup, and found that there was no breath on it, so he could only smile helplessly.
"Sorry, the teacup that the old lady gave you seems to be broken."
Chitanda also saw the broken teacup on the table, "Is that so? It's okay."
Yukinoshita also saw the broken pieces on the table, and then gave Uchiha Ling a blank look. "You are really careless. Since you broke someone's teacup, just clean it up yourself."
Uchiha Ling didn't say anything, but found a bag to put the teacup fragments in.
The person I should really apologize to is you, little guy. I'm sorry that I wrongly blamed you yesterday...The teacup monster is not a monster that brings disaster, but a life-saving talisman that will ward off disaster for people.
The old lady must have seen that Chitanda's parents' luck was not good recently, so she sent the teacup.
After Uchiha Ling cleaned up the broken pieces of the teacup, Yukinoshita nodded, "Then let's go to school. Don't forget that you have to tell us the truth about the script today."
Chitanda: "Yes, yes, yes! You must tell us today!"
Uchiha Ling took the bag and said, "Okay, I will invite Senior Irusu to our Classical Literature Department at noon today, and I will tell you all my guesses."
