Slimes also want to be evil gods

Yagami Shen sat on the chair directly behind the table in the middle, resting his chin with one hand and looking at Hirouchi Uesugi.

Ding...boom...ding...boom...

"No, it's not good. The lunch break is over. I'll go to class first. Since Yagami is here, don't skip school and go to class..."

Although there are still countless unsolved mysteries in his heart, he is also full of curiosity about this room, but when he heard the class bell, Hirouchi Uesugi, who has not yet been prepared to waste his studies, panicked and wanted to go out.

Chapter 4 Inside the classroom

"Hey……"

"What? Ah...it's too dangerous."

Before Uesugi Hirouchi was about to step out of the room, Yagami behind him stopped him. After he turned around suspiciously, he noticed something thrown at him out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly caught it.

The thing thrown over was that pocket watch, that ordinary-looking pocket watch.

"You chose this pocket watch, or maybe the pocket watch chose you... In short, this pocket watch is now yours."

While speaking, Ye Shen Shen was holding a coin and stuffing it into the coffee machine in the corner. After pressing some buttons on the coffee machine, a paper cup fell from the bottom of the coffee machine. It looked like a cola with bubbles. The dark brown liquid fell from the machine and filled the entire paper cup in a short while.

"This pocket watch...for me?"

Hirouchi Uesugi held the pocket watch in his right hand, lightly touched the edge of the pocket watch with his fingers, and said confusedly while feeling the cold touch.

"Just treat it like this... why don't you go to class?"

Yagami took a sip of the drink in the paper cup, then sat on the sofa beside him, paused for a while, looked at Hirouchi Uesugi who was not moving, and reminded.

"Oh yes, yes, I have to go to class, I have to go to class..."

After being reminded by Yagami Shen, Uesugi Hirouchi suddenly came back to his senses and walked towards the classroom, but he kept staring at the pocket watch he just bought during the walk, until he reached the door of the classroom, he was reluctant to part with it. Put it in the inner pocket of the jacket.

However, Hirouchi Uesugi didn't notice one thing. In fact, the distance he walked had exceeded the size of the teaching building. If he recalled it, he would find that there was nothing at all except the section in front of the classroom. There are no classrooms in the corridor, and there is only a wall with nothing in the section where he walks. Behind the wall is a flower bed in the middle of the campus building.

It is a pity that he himself has not noticed this, and his mind is almost entirely on the pocket watch he just got.

"Uesugi, Uesugi Hirouchi, Uesugi Hirouchi! Hey, are you listening?!"

"What, what?"

Hirouchi Uesugi, who was sitting in the classroom in a daze, was woken up by the gradually intensified voice, his consciousness turned clear in an instant, and he immediately noticed his gaffe.

At some point, the attention of the whole class was already on him, and the teacher on the stage was looking at him angrily. At the same time, there was an unsolved problem on the blackboard.

Not good, very bad feeling.

"Hirouchi Uesugi, my class is so boring that you can fall asleep in a dignified manner, that is to say, you have fully grasped the knowledge, right? Then please ask Hirouchi Uesugi to solve this problem. For those who can Hirouchi Uesugi, who fell asleep peacefully in my class, should have no difficulty."

The teacher on the podium showed a very hearty smile, but this smile was not warm to Uesugi Hirouchi, but cold, as cold as Siberian room temperature vodka.

"Hug, sorry."

Uesugi Hirouchi apologized backwards, while walking up to the podium under the gaze of everyone, but he felt very strange, he couldn't remember when he fell asleep, he clearly remembered that he was about to open the classroom door and go in .

Could it be that he was daydreaming when he heard the clock ringing and saw Ye Shen Shen in the room?

No, not right!

The pocket watch in the inner pocket of the jacket is very obvious. This is the most direct proof that he should have indeed got the pocket watch from Ye Shenchen just now.

"Tsk... think about it later, focus now, concentrate."

Compared with what happened before, the most important thing for Hirouchi Uesugi is the question on the blackboard. If he can't solve this question now, he can imagine being left in the office by this angry teacher to criticize education after school .

Judging from the current situation, this possibility is very high.

However, what troubled Hirouchi Uesugi was that the questions on the blackboard were too general, and he didn't know how to answer them.

On the surface, this seems to be a historical question, but the author of the question seems to want the answerer to use the law at that time to judge whether it is reasonable, which is particularly strange, because the question is obviously an ended historical event.

The general content is to judge whether it is reasonable for Ako Ronin to avenge the assassination of Kira Uenosuke for his daimyo Asano Uchito during the Genroku period. If they did not commit seppuku, what crime should they be punished at that time.

On the surface, this question is actually just for people to understand the whole story of Zhongchenzang incident in history, but this question should not be in the textbook, it is probably made by the angry teacher himself.

Originally, the teacher probably wanted to use this to explain the laws and regulations at the time, and then explain the consequences of violating these laws during the shogunate period, but now, it seems that Uesugi Hirouchi has to write something casually.

Hirouchi Uesugi was silent for a long time in front of the blackboard. To be honest, he was not familiar with this kind of thing. He really didn't know what to write to satisfy the teacher.

However, the longer this thing is delayed, the more unfavorable it is. Hirouchi Uesugi gritted his teeth and wrote the Arabic numerals 42 and [-] below the topic on the blackboard. Afterwards, he let out a long breath as if he had solved some problem.

"Uesugi-san, wait..."

Obviously, this kind of unclear answer could not be accepted by the teacher at all, so he stopped Uesugi Hirouchi who was about to return to his seat.

"Please explain this 42, please... This is a history problem, not an arithmetic problem, please understand this."

After all, the teacher is a teacher. After teaching for so many years, he has seen all kinds of students. It is not uncommon for this kind of answer to write numbers under the history question, but Hirouchi Uesugi does not know how to write this kind of answer in his impression. I'm a decent student, so I'm a little stricter.

"But, but teacher... 42 is the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything. Under this premise, I don't think there is any problem with my answer."

"…………"

As soon as this answer came out, the teacher fell silent. Not only the teacher, but also the other students sitting in the seats were confused by Hirouchi Uesugi's answer, and the classroom was very quiet for a while.

And this unusual silence made Uesugi Hirouchi instinctively feel that there was something wrong with what he said, but he couldn't figure out why, he just said it naturally.

"Hirouchi Uesugi, I'll stop by my office after school......"

In the end, it was the teacher who broke the silence, looked at Hirouchi Uesugi who hadn't realized where the real problem was, and said calmly.

Chapter 5 Sound

Ka... Ka... Ka...... Ka...

Obviously did not hear any sound, but Hirouchi Uesugi had a feeling of hearing a sound, followed by a very awkward feeling.

There's something wrong, it shouldn't be like this.

click... click...

Hearing the soundless sound, Hirouchi Uesugi took out the pocket watch that Yagami Shen had given him from his pocket. It was obviously so ordinary, but an irresistible impulse surged into his heart, making him stretch out his hand involuntarily... ………

Jingle bell.....jingle bell.....

"Ah, school is over...you have to go to the office."

Uesugi Hirouchi came back to his senses from the sudden ringing of the get out of class bell. Only then did he realize that at some point, today's classes have all ended, and the left and right home departments have already started packing their bags and preparing to go back. to their respective clubs.

"You were really amazing just now, you dared to talk back to the teacher, huh? Uesugi, are you listening...... Oh yes, you have to go to the teacher's office."

Yoshioka Kunimura, who was seated to the right of Hirouchi Uesugi, wanted to chat with him as usual, but found that Hirouchi Uesugi did not communicate with him today, but walked out of the classroom very silently without saying a word.

Yoshioka Kunimura then thought that Hirouchi Uesugi was asked to go to the office by the teacher during the break, so he didn't think much about it, thinking that Hirouchi Uesugi should be going to the office now, so he was just in a bad mood.

However, Uesugi Hirouchi did not go directly to the office as Yoshioka Kunimura imagined, but turned into the men's toilet compartment halfway, closed the toilet door, put down the toilet lid, and sat on the toilet. This point already proves that Hirouchi Uesugi didn't come here to go to the toilet.

"What kind of sound is it? What kind of sound is this? Why is there such a discordant sound... You really shouldn't be holding this."

The sound Uesugi Hirouchi felt was not heavy, or even non-existent, because it was different from before, he could clearly realize that he did not hear the actual sound, but at the same time, he did hear the 'voice', A wonderful mirage-like feeling that I don't know if it should be called a "sound".

Uesugi Hirouchi took out the pocket watch from his pocket again, and put it close to his ear, listening to the sound inside the pocket watch.

In fact, he wanted to do this just now, but was interrupted by the ringing of the bell, and doing this kind of behavior in the classroom surrounded by everyone would only be misunderstood, and he already knew that others would not believe him in the treatment in the morning up.

silent

"Hey, is this pocket watch... broken?"

After listening to the pocket watch for a long time, Uesugi Hirouchi, who did not hear any sound, moved it away in confusion, and suddenly found that the pocket watch in his hand did not move at all, and the hands in the pocket watch were always at 12, without any progress signs.

click...

When Hirouchi Uesugi was staring at this pocket watch, a "sound" came from the inside of the pocket watch that was clearer than ever before. Unlike the previous few times, Hirouchi Uesugi was convinced that the "sound" this time was definitely from this pocket watch from within.

It's just that Hirouchi Uesugi realized that he didn't hear this 'voice', but he saw it.

It is very strange to use vision to receive hearing, but Hirouchi Uesugi is convinced that this is the truth. At this moment, his ears did not hear any sound, it was his eyes, and the images received by his eyes gave him the concept of sound, which is exactly Because of this, he always felt very strange.

"I really want to hear its internal structure..."

Once Hirouchi Uesugi understood this, he immediately understood the truth of the 'sounds' he had heard before, and at the same time, he became very interested in pocket watches that could produce such 'sounds'.

The hands on the surface alone can already make this sound, but what about the internal sound?

With this expectation, Hirouchi Uesugi began to try to open the pocket watch.

"Tsk...it looks like it can't be opened without special tools."

Unfortunately, this pocket watch is as ordinary as its ordinary appearance. This ordinary firmness means that it is almost impossible for Hirouchi Uesugi to open this watch with his bare hands, and he must use various tools.

"Let's buy a toolbox on the way back...... Ah."

When Hirouchi Uesugi was about to leave, the teacher's previous words suddenly sounded.

"No, how long have I been here?"

Hirouchi Uesugi walked out of the toilet and took a second look, and found that the sun was setting outside, there were almost no people in the school, and there were still sporadic students on the playground who had finished their club activities and were going home.

"Hey, Brother Tatsuya...... As expected, you still haven't given up on baseball."

Surprisingly, Hirouchi Uesugi found that one of the last few students seemed to be his cousin Tatsuya Uesugi, who had just encountered that kind of thing before, but continued to play baseball.

Tick ​​tock………………

The sound appeared again, but this time the sound was different from what Hirouchi Uesugi had heard the last few times. Specifically, it should be the timbre.

At the same time, Hirouchi Uesugi noticed one thing. This time he heard the 'voice' at the moment he saw his cousin Tatsuya Uesugi. From this point of view, his judgment should be correct. The 'voice' he felt It is indeed seen.

The question is, why did he see his cousin's 'voice', and conversely why his cousin made a 'voice' that he could see, what is this 'voice'?

"U...sugi...hiro...nai!"

While Uesugi Hirouchi was meditating, a voice suddenly came from behind him that made his movements freeze.

"I should really, really tell you to come back to the office after class... Uesugi, you are really amazing, really amazing, not only did you not come here, um, thinking about that life, the universe, and everything the ultimate answer, right?"

The previous teacher, the teacher who asked Hirouchi Uesugi to go to his office, had stood behind him at some point, watching him with a smile on his face.

"42, the answer is 42, teacher, obviously I have already said it in the previous class, the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything is 42, this is common sense."
