BA, I just want to save the world

........................

The moment she regained her freedom, Serika subconsciously surfaced.

"Sensei, you are...ah! Sensei can't swim?!"

She looked around in the chaos, but couldn't find any familiar figure. She panicked and dived into the water.

Although there were bubbles underwater and even a lot of blood blocking her vision, in the chaotic sea water, the tablet in Mo Lu's arms lit up by itself, providing her with an important direction indicator, allowing her to rush into the water regardless of everything.

Just like that, relying on the exaggerated physical ability of the Kivotos, she unexpectedly dragged it up, but...

"sensei! Wake up quickly! sensei~~!"

Even after being brought back to the surface, Mo Lu did not move. Ling Qinxiang kept shaking him beside him, and tears seemed to be flowing out uncontrollably again.

But at this moment, she suddenly remembered the emergency rescue method when in distress at the seaside.

"Right, right, right now... right now we should give artificial respiration! But... never mind! Never mind!"

Although she hesitated for a moment due to shyness, it was only a brief hesitation and she no longer hesitated. She leaned over and made the hazy Mo Lu feel a soft touch and gas being blown into his mouth.

In fact...Mo Lu did not completely lose consciousness, nor did he need artificial respiration. He was just feeling so uncomfortable that he could not open his eyes, and was too tired to move.

But at this moment he was forced to open his eyes, and his eyes met the girl in front of him who was crying anxiously and blowing air.

At this moment, the time of the world seemed to stop, and after a brief moment of shock, Qinxiang let out hot tears as big as beans, sliding down his face.

"——Wu, wuwu~! sensei~~! I thought...I thought you were going to die~!"

The overjoyed girl didn't care about being shy. She picked him up and hugged him in her arms, bursting into tears.

"Oh, oh...it's okay, it's okay..." Mo Lu didn't even bother to wipe his mouth. He just patted the girl's back gently with a hint of confusion, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, thinking that this operation seemed to be very wrong.

Normally, shouldn't we first check if the patient is breathing? Then straighten the head to ensure the airway is clear, and then confirm if the patient can breathe on his own. If the patient is not breathing on his own, then perform artificial respiration.

The only thing Qinxiang did was probably pinch her nose... But would she be angry if I corrected her at this time? Or should I talk about it later?

He was thinking about all these things in a wild way, but in the end he put them aside temporarily, gently hugged the girl in his arms, and stroked her back as if to calm her down.

After a long while, the crying girl finally stopped crying. She looked up with red eyes and said inexplicably seriously:

"...I really thought sensei was going to die..."

"Ha, haha...I won't die that easily..."

"Sensei is really an idiot!... You obviously can't swim, but you won't leave when I tell you to."

"...There's no other way. I can't leave you alone, right?" His answer without even a second thought made Qin Xiang's eyes and face turn red. She subconsciously lowered her head and held up his cut hand:

"Speaking of which... Is sensei's injury okay? We need to take care of it right now!"

"Uh... there's no rush... I actually have something to tell you... I hope you won't be angry after hearing it."

"Ah, I, I also have a lot of things to say to sensei!" It was at this moment that Serika finally opened her heart completely, unconsciously grasping his uninjured fingers, and said hesitantly with evasive eyes:

"Um, this... is... although I have always been like that... but actually, I also want to play with sensei, and... become friends with him?"

"Really? That's great, but can we talk about something else after this topic? I think I should tell you, and I can't delay it." In addition to being happy, he seemed a little conflicted in his heart, and asked carefully again: "Before I say this, can you promise not to be angry?"

"What? So mysterious...why not just say no? I know I get angry easily, but I'm not that easily angry, right? And in this situation, I definitely won't get angry."

"Really?"

"Really? So, what's going on?" Seeing him hesitate, Qin Xiang couldn't help but laugh and teased: "It's totally unlike you to be so timid, sensei."

"...This is a long story."

"how long?"

"About an hour ago."

“——Isn’t that super short?!” Qinxiang almost jumped up when she heard him say that.

Or when he was about to jump, Mo Lu held the cat's head and said seriously: "Anyway, the situation is a little complicated. I hope you can listen to me calmly and don't get angry."

"So I won't be angry! Just tell me quickly, don't keep dragging it out, or I'll really get angry! And! Keep it short!"

"...Well, actually, Ruo Zao and I know each other." He sighed and confessed directly: "Also, this matter was proposed by Ruo Zao and I participated in it."

"Huh? Wait? What are you talking about...?"

The overly direct confession made Qinxiang stunned. She tilted her head and stared at him blankly. It took her a long time to recover from this sudden self-exposure.

"...I was hesitant when she first proposed it, but when I thought about getting back together with you, I agreed. It's just that the initial plot design should only be limited to the edge of the cliff, and the rest are all unexpected situations...Although I originally planned to talk about it later, but you cried, I felt that I couldn't keep it a secret from you...So, um..."

He carefully considered his words, but in the end he raised his hands as if giving up: "Anyway, that's probably it. If you want to be angry, you should just get angry. After all, it's all my fault for making you so worried. I should take responsibility for my own evil ways and improper means."

"......." Qinxiang frowned and tried to sort out this sudden situation. After a long while, she pursed her lips and stared at him: "sensei...."

"....Wha, what? Didn't we agree not to get angry? Oh, no, I also told you that you can get angry as much as you want?"

Being stared at by those red eyes made him a little panicked, and he also seemed nervous, but he quickly prepared himself and nodded to himself: "Actually, I can accept you slapping me. Maybe it will make me feel better this way?"

"....You want me to slap you?"

"To be honest, I don't really want to be beaten, but I'd feel bad if I wasn't beaten, so...it's up to you." He swallowed and closed his eyes, ready to be beaten.

This made Qinxiang feel both angry and amused. After a long sigh, she simply reached out her hand to him:

"Give me your hand that you just took back now."

"W-what?"

".... Is your hand injured?"

"Are you going to stick your finger into the wound?!" Mo Lu opened his eyes in surprise, and subconsciously turned around and wanted to get up and run away.

But Qin Xiang, who was squatting on the ground with him, reached out and grabbed his heel, dragged him back from the sand, and said angrily as if she was going to bite him:

"——How is that possible! I'm not that kind of pervert! I'm just bandaging you first, and I'll talk to you properly later!"

"....Really?"

"It's all true! Don't keep asking this question, you're annoying!"

"No, I thought you would be angry..."

"....Yeah, normally I should be really angry."

But why do I feel helpless and depressed now? -- To be honest, Qinxiang herself was a little confused. She tore off the hem of her skirt and made strips of cloth to bandage his deeply cut and bleeding fingers. She stared at the blood stains left on the sand and asked:

".... Was this injury also sensei's plan?"

"That's not the case. How can I dare to do such a dangerous thing if I can't even swim?"

"That's beyond the plan, why not run."

"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? Didn't I tell you all about it? How could I leave you and run away?"

"——You are the stupid one, you are the stupidest one! Sensei is the biggest fool in the world! Just because of something like this, you almost killed both you and me? You are usually so smart, what on earth were you thinking at this time?"

"...Actually, you won't die. After all, if all else fails, you can still use the card?"

"Haa...really, what should I say to you?" Qin Xiang couldn't help but roll her eyes. She stood up, put her hands on her hips and looked down at Mo Lu who was still in a daze. She put on a proud attitude and said condescendingly:

"Since you confessed this time, I will give you a suspended sentence. However, if you do this again, I will never forgive you!"

"...Qixiang is unexpectedly easy to talk to?"

"I'm easy to talk to!"

"Oh no, I am so touched. Can I have a hug?" He couldn't help but stand up and hug the girl in front of him. Ling Qinxiang was so flustered that she started dancing with joy:

“——Hug one? Huh? Wait…why are you doing this before I even agree?!”

"You're definitely not going to agree anyway, so just do it?" He looked down with a smile.

She was stunned by what he said, then her face turned red, and she bit his arm, making an unclear sound: "——You are really... pushing your luck~~!"

"It hurts...but surprisingly you can handle it?"

"Are you a pervert?!"

"I don't think so."

"Say you are! You are!"

........

Qin Xiang scolded like children in a quarrel, but the force of her bite was not very strong, and he seemed to be able to accept it.

Although there were some changes, the two of them were still joking around, walking together, which was rare, and heading towards the resort together.

Although they still quarreled, their relationship was obviously much better than before.

........................

........................

On the way back, although it was a dilapidated path, Qinxiang was in a surprisingly good mood.

But when she was halfway there, she suddenly seemed to remember something, and turned her head sharply to look at Mo Lu, staring at him until her cat-like pupils shrank and erected:

"Speaking of which, sensei, why do you know that Wakamo? If I remember correctly, she should be a very famous criminal, right?"

"Ah... this is a long story."

"Really long?"

"It probably starts from the first day I returned to the Central District from Abydos."

"——Isn't it just been a week?!"

The time was too close that Qinxiang almost couldn't help but bite him again.

"Yeah, that's when I met her."

"....And she started giving you advice? Was she really not hired by sensei? To be honest, I won't be angry." Qinxiang's face was full of black lines, and she tried hard not to get angry.

"But it's really not."

"Then why should she help you act? And do so much for you?"

"...To be honest, I've been thinking about this question as well."

Ever since he confessed that he was acting, he has never lied once, including this one.

He still doesn't understand why Ruo Zao is so...kind to him?

Could it be that she likes me? But that shouldn't be the case. They have only known each other for a week, and... Ruo Zao acted strangely when they met for the first time.

Thinking this way, perhaps he was trying to get something in return from him? After a while of worrying, he came to this conclusion.

However, Qinxiang was not satisfied with his answer. With a smile that suppressed her anger, she asked:

"Hey, sensei, tell me the truth, do you think I'm stupid?"

"That's not the case."

"Then why did you look away when you answered me! Isn't this a sign of guilt?!"

"Actually, a seagull just flew over."

"Don't try to quibble! Senior Baizi has already said it! Sensei's eyes will wander when he lies!" Qinxiang didn't listen to his explanation at all. She stretched out her hands and pressed them on his face, staring at him angrily, forcing him to change the subject. She forced a smile and said:

"Speaking of which, Qinxiang, you know what? Actually, your method of artificial respiration was completely wrong. And I was actually still somewhat conscious at the beginning. I just need to wait a little longer for me to recover!"

"What! -- Could it be that...?" As soon as he said this, Qinxiang's body froze instantly, and a blush quickly appeared on her cheeks. Then she bared her cute fangs and glared at him angrily: "You... Could it be that you..."

"what?"

"Pretending to be unconscious in order to get my first, first kiss!?"

"No, no, no, what nonsense are you talking about? How can artificial respiration be considered a first kiss? You didn't stick out your tongue. After all, the way you did it, who would have known you wanted artificial respiration? It was not standard at all. I didn't even react and you breathed in. I was so scared that I thought I was really dead. Next time you should..."

"But, but you also took advantage of the chaos under the water to touch my...my breasts and thighs!"

"...I couldn't see at that time, so I could only feel my way down, right? It should be considered an emergency measure, and it doesn't count. I will forget about it, and you should forget about it soon too."

“Who, who wants to listen to you! Go to hell!! Meow~~!!”

After a lecture, he was saying that he had defeated Qinxiang, but the girl with a red face bit his arm again, which made him understand physically what the consequences of reasoning with a girl would be.

Then, the girl with red cheeks walked ahead angrily, leaving him behind, so that he could only watch the girl's receding back... but he didn't dare to chase her, for fear of being bitten again.
