The next day, Rozen, together with Gu Cheng, Yusha, and Agulola, went to school as usual in a luxury limousine driven by the Special Administrative Region Guards.
After getting off the limousine, Rozen was surrounded by a lot of female students as usual, pushing Gu Cheng, Yusha, and Agulola out of the limousine. Although it had always been like this, Gu Cheng had to complain every time, while Yusha and Agulola kept a straight face the whole time, as if they were in a bad mood. This was considered a routine every morning.
After much persuasion, Rozen finally got away from the female students. However, at this time, Gu Cheng, Yusha, and Agulola had already left and went to their respective classrooms.
If they did not do that, they did not know how long they would have to wait for Rozen, and how many times they would have to suffer from the supercilious looks of the female students.
So Rozen was used to it. He continued to greet the passing female students as he entered the classroom.
"You're finally here?"
"You're always like this. It's really hard on you."
Seeing Rozen coming in, Gu Cheng and Ji Shu, who were chatting in their respective seats, looked at him at the same time. One squinted his eyes, while the other mocked him.
Rozen ignored their greetings as if he was already used to it. He sat in his seat, which was next to Gu Cheng, while the girls in the class greeted him.
Rozen, Gu Cheng, Qian Cong, and Ji Shu sat together. Rozen and Gu Cheng sat together in the last row by the window, while Qian Cong and Ji Shu sat in front of them. Ji Shu turned around and chatted with Gu Cheng, who was sitting behind him. Rozen sat in the row next to Gu Cheng. He looked at the empty seat in front of him and felt a little strange.
"What's wrong? Isn't Qian Cong here yet? "
Rozen asked Ji Shu.
"Not yet." Ji Shu spread his hands and said, "Yesterday, when you went to get your magician's license, we teamed up and went to the arcade together. It was almost dark when we came back, but before Gu Cheng, Yusha, and Agulora-chan could get back, San Onion received a call saying that she had work to do and had to leave first. I guess it must be some troublesome work that made her sacrifice her sleep time."
"Does that mean that Shallow Onion is still sleeping?" Gu Cheng scratched his head and said, "Is she going to be late or absent? The first class today was Nakamura -chan's class. If you skip her class, the consequences will be very bad. "
"Who asked Nakamura to be our homeroom teacher this year?" Ji Shu said disapprovingly, "I guess Shallow Onion is panicking now. If she knows that the first class is Nakamura -chan's, she will probably run into the classroom while panting."
Hearing that, Gucheng didn't have the time to say anything, but Rozen smiled.
"As expected of the childhood friend who grew up with you. You know her so well."
As soon as Rozen's voice fell, a panting voice sounded at the door of the classroom.
"Great … Great … I made it in time …"
Upon a closer look, Shallow Onion was running into the classroom just as Ji Shu had said. She was panting and looked exhausted.
"You really made it in time, Shallow Onion."
"See, I told you so."
Gu Cheng was surprised, while Ji Shu was proud of himself. Rozen could not help but laugh.
"Are you okay?"
Rozen tossed the water he brought to Shishou, and his action looked very natural.
"Thank you. You've been a great help."
Shallow Onion did not hesitate at all. She opened the bottle and gulped down the water. After a while, she finally felt a little better.
"Seriously, I'll never accept this kind of work again. It's so troublesome and tiring."
Scaly Onion sat on her seat, panting and complaining at the same time.
"What kind of work did you do?"
Rozen asked curiously.
"The Artificial Island Management Commune gave me some lousy work." Shallow Onion said in annoyance, "They said that there was a fire at Warehouse Street in the East yesterday. All the security systems were destroyed, so I had to work overnight. I even had to do the adjustment myself, but they didn't do the filtering and load balancing properly. God knows how much effort I've wasted. Although the pay is good, I really want to scold them. What have they been doing all day? Can't they pay more attention to the maintenance work?"
Qian Cong kept complaining and even used a bunch of technical jargon that no one else could understand, causing the three boys to be confused.
Only Rozen could understand it.
Although he was not as professional and powerful as Shallow Onion, Rozen at least had the knowledge to understand the jargon.
Therefore, Rozen only said one sentence.
"They took care of the adjustment and the filtering, but you finished all the work?"
It was unknown whether Rozen was lamenting or sighing.
"Well, it's not a big job anyway. I just updated it for them."
Qian Onions brushed it off in a very casual tone.
However, to be able to remake, adjust, and update the security system built by the Artificial Island Management Commune overnight in one go, Shallow Onion's ability would make countless computer geniuses tremble in fear.
To put it bluntly, if Shallow Onion was willing to sell the program that he had updated, he would definitely be able to sell it for a sky-high price. However, he was completely unaware of it. It was as if he was watering flowers. In a way, he was guilty to the extreme.
"But why did the Warehouse Street in the East suddenly catch fire?"
Ji Shu noticed this problem.
"Could it be that the storage and protection measures for flammable materials weren't done well enough?"
Gu Cheng made such a guess lazily.
"The Warehouse Street in the East is the place where the Flux God Island stores a lot of resources from outside the island, including food. For this artificial island that can't be completely self-sufficient, it is equivalent to a lifeline. How could there be a problem because of this kind of carelessness?"
Rozen shook his head, denying Gu Cheng's statement.
In the end, Shallow Onion gave the answer.
"This, I heard that it was caused by a vampire's dependent beast going berserk."
Shallow Onion said the reason very straightforwardly.
"Caused by a vampire's dependent beast going berserk?"
Gu Cheng and Ji Shu were stunned.
"Oh?" Rozen suddenly became interested and asked, "What kind of vampire's dependent beast went berserk?"
"I don't know, I didn't specifically investigate this." Shallow Onion tilted her head and said, "But I heard that it was a vampire from the old generation that went berserk, so the damage was very great. Nearly 40% of the island's resources were burned."
"Old generation?" Rozen was also stunned. He frowned and said, "Even the vampires from the old generation couldn't control their dependent beasts and let them go berserk?"
This was really unheard of.
If it was a vampire from the young generation, then it would be fine. But even if the vampires from the old generation weren't pure-blooded, they had lived for a long time and accumulated extraordinary power. Their accumulated blood memories formed a huge amount of experience, so how could their dependent beasts go berserk uncontrollably?
Rozen faintly felt that there was something wrong.
At this time, something happened and interrupted Rozen's thoughts.
