Chapter 113

Good morning! Uh... Linton Trainer, are you staying up late again?

Translation: "Good morning! Uh... Training Officer Lin Dun, have you been staying up late again?"

We need to keep punctuation and quotes? The source includes Chinese quotation marks 「」. Should we keep them? The instruction: translate faithfully, never skip, summarise, or merge paragraphs. It doesn't say to keep the Chinese quotation marks. Usually we replace with English quotes? But we need to output translation; we can use English punctuation. The Chinese quotation marks are part of the source; we should translate them into English quotation marks? The instruction says render exactly what the source says — same meaning, same information, nothing added. The Chinese quotation marks are punctuation; we can replace with English quotes. Usually translators use English quotes. We'll use double quotes.

Thus line 1: 【1】 "Good morning! Uh... Training Officer Lin Dun, have you been staying up late again?"

Check: we kept "Good morning! Uh... Training Officer Lin Dun, have you been staying up late again?" That's fine.

The next day, at the gate of Central Tiresen Academy.

Translation: "The next day, at the gate of Central Tiresen Academy."

We need to keep punctuation: after "the next day," we have a comma. We'll translate as "The next day, at the gate of Central Tiresen Academy."

Aomo once again missed out on being a motorcycle rider.

Translation: "Aomo once again missed out on the identity of a motorcycle rider."

But to keep the nuance: "missing the chance to be a motorcycle rider" means "Aomo once again missed out on being a motorcycle rider." We'll translate: "Aomo once again missed out on the identity of a motorcycle rider."

Walking alone off the bus amid the gazes of students looking at the rare beast, he was met with the concerned gaze of the chairman's secretary.

Translation: "Walking alone off the bus amid the gazes of students looking at the rare beast, he was met with the concerned gaze of the chairman's secretary."

Walking alone off the bus amid the gazes of students looking at the rare beast, he was met with the concerned gaze of the chairman's secretary.

After all, his eyes were more bloodshot than before.

Translation: "After all, he had more bloodshot eyes than last time."

"No, it's different this time—I just have insomnia."

Translation: "\"No, this time it's just insomnia. \""

"But isn't insomnia worse than staying up late? Why not go to the infirmary? Ah, good morning, Qing Zhu classmate, thanks for your hard work last night."

Translation: "\"But isn't insomnia worse than staying up late? Why not go to the infirmary? Ah, good morning, Qing Zhu classmate, you worked hard last night. \""

As Shunkawa Jinshou spoke, he saw a brown-haired horse girl walk by and quickly greeted her.

Translation: "JunChuan JiangSheng said, then saw a brown-haired horse girl walk by, and hurriedly greeted her."

And that horse girl, without a doubt, had those overly obvious dark circles, her spirits not great either, as she glanced at the secretary and then at Aomo beside her: '... Good morning, Miss Shunkawa, good morning, Trainer.'

Translation: "As for that horse girl, the obvious dark circles under her eyes were undoubtedly worrying, and her spirits weren't great either; she glanced at the secretary miss and then at Aomo beside her: \"\"Good morning, Miss JunChuan, good morning, Training Officer. \"\""

We need to keep the quoted speech. We'll translate: "As for that horse girl, the obvious dark circles under her eyes were undoubtedly worrying, and her spirits weren't great either; she glanced at the secretary miss and then at Aomo beside her: \"Good morning, Miss JunChuan, good morning, Training Officer. \""

"Last night... last night was fine, I went in first, goodbye."

Translation: "\"Last night... last night was fine, I'll go in first, goodbye. \""

Having said that, she walked straight through the school gate, leaving Shunkawa Jinshou's slightly worried gaze behind her.

Translation: "Having said that, she walked straight into the school gate, leaving JunChuan JiangSheng's slightly worried gaze behind her."

"She looks more tired than I am, that horse girl." Aomo, still standing in place, commented, and given that this 'Qing Zhu Huiyi' should be a fiery girl, her remarks ought to have some exclamation marks of liveliness.

Translation: "\"She looks more tired than I am, that horse girl. \" Aomo, still standing where he was, commented, given that the 'Qing Zhu Huiyi' should have been an energetic, hot-blooded girl who usually speaks with exclamation marks."

We need to keep the quote marks around Qing Zhu Huiyi. We'll keep it as 'Qing Zhu Huiyi'.

Thus: "\"She looks more tired than I am, that horse girl. \" Aomo, still standing where he was, commented, given that the 'Qing Zhu Huiyi' should have been an energetic, hot-blooded girl who usually speaks with exclamation marks."

"Well..." Shunkawa Jinshou glanced at some passing students, then lowered his voice a bit toward Aomo: "Linton Trainer probably doesn't know yet, but there was some disturbance in the junior high teaching area last night."

Translation: "\"Well... \" JunChuan JiangSheng glanced at some passing students, then lowered his voice a bit to Aomo: \"Training Officer Lin Dun probably doesn't know yet, but there was some disturbance last night in the junior high teaching area. \""

"I'd love to hear the details."

Translation: "\"I'd like to hear the details. \""

"That's right. Around eight o'clock last night, a few students from Kito Dormitory, still shaken, reported to Fuji Dormitory Head that ghosts and monsters had appeared in the junior high teaching building."

Translation: "\"It's like this: around eight o'clock last night, a few students from Li Dong Dorm, still shaken, reported to the Fuji Dorm Head that ghosts and monsters had appeared in the junior high teaching building. \""

【Recommendation: The Wild Fruit reading tracker app is really handy; you can download it at. yeguoyuedu and give it a try quickly.】

This line is an advertisement or note. We need to translate it faithfully. The source includes brackets 【】 and a URL. yeguoyuedu. We'll translate: "【Recommendation: Wild Fruit Reading Tracker is really useful; download here. yeguoyuedu, everyone can go try it quickly.】"

But we need to keep the brackets? We'll translate the content inside. We'll keep the same brackets? Probably we should keep the same style: 【】. We'll translate inside.

Thus: "【Recommendation: Wild Fruit Reading Tracker is really useful; download here. yeguoyuedu, everyone can go try it quickly.】"

"Ghosts?"

Translation: "\"Ghosts and monsters? \""

"Yes, ghosts." Shunkawa Jinshou said with a solemn face, lowering his voice, not even having time to acknowledge others' greetings.

Translation: "\"Yes, ghosts and monsters. \" JunChuan JiangSheng said in a low, serious voice, not even having time to notice others' greetings."

"According to what the Fuji Dormitory Head said at the time, those horse girls' performance couldn't be called confident, but it could be described as nervous and frightened; therefore she contacted the guards, also informed me, and Qing Zhu classmate, having heard the news, voluntarily came to assist as the disciplinary committee chair."

Translation: "\"According to what the Fuji Dorm Head said at the time, those horse girls' performance couldn't be called confident, but it could be described as trembling with fear; therefore she contacted the guard, also notified me, and Qing Zhu classmate, having heard the news, came forward to help as the Discipline Committee Chair. \""

The Fuji Dormitory Head refers to Fuji Kiseki, a university division horse girl who is also the head of Kito Dormitory.

Translation: "The Fuji Dorm Head refers to Fuji Qishi, a university division horse girl who is also the head of Li Dong Dorm."

According to Dongyan, that means the dorm supervisor.

Translation: "According to Dong Yan, that is the dorm supervisor."

Correspondingly, there's also Rhia Amazon, the head of another horse girl dormitory, Miura Dormitory.

Translation: "Corresponding to that is also Liya Masun, the head of another horse girl dorm, Mei Pu Dorm."

By this point, it's clearly evident that the student self-governance atmosphere at Central Tiresen is very strong, even the dorm supervisors are upperclassmen.

Translation: "Here it's also clearly visible that the student self-governance atmosphere at Central Tiresen is very strong, even the dorm supervisors are upperclassmen."

"We went together to check the floors those horse girls mentioned several times."

Translation: "\"We went together to patrol the floors those horse girls mentioned several times. \""

"I think... there probably wasn't any find; otherwise I could have gotten information from my subordinates."

Translation: "\"I think... there probably wasn't any find; otherwise I could have gotten news from the girls under me. \""

Ari Speed would probably be delighted to tell him about a new research project, although she's likely been daydreaming about 'monster research' these days.

Translation: "Ailisuzhi would probably happily tell him there's a new research project, although she's probably been daydreaming about 'Monster Research' these days."

"Hmm, no findings; we preliminarily judged it a false alarm, but Qing Zhu classmate patrolled there for several hours to reassure those horse girls."

Translation: "\"Hmm, no findings; we preliminarily judged it a false alarm, but Qing Zhu classmate stayed there for several hours to reassure those horse girls. \""

"... She actually looked more like she'd been staying there all night."

Translation: "\"... She just looked like she'd been staying there all night. \""

"Indeed..." As the disciplinary committee chair, Shunkawa Jinshou is fairly acquainted with Qing Zhu Huiyi, understands her, and thus cannot deny Aomo's speculation, only resignedly saying: "Back then we didn't know either; I'll go talk to Qing Zhu classmate's teacher later."

Translation: "\"Indeed... \" As the Discipline Committee Chair, JunChuan JiangSheng was fairly familiar with Qing Zhu Huiyi, understood her, and couldn't deny Aomo's guess, so he helplessly said, \"\"At that time we didn't know either; I'll go talk to Qing Zhu classmate's teacher later. \"\""

We need to keep the quotes. We'll translate: "\"Indeed... \" As the Discipline Committee Chair, JunChuan JiangSheng was fairly familiar with Qing Zhu Huiyi, understood her, and couldn't deny Aomo's guess, so he helplessly said, \"At that time we didn't know either; I'll go talk to Qing Zhu classmate's teacher later. \""

At least they don't get punished for dozing off in class; overall, Tiresen's class atmosphere is still quite relaxed, like Little Red Riding Hood classmate whose stomach keeps growling from hunger, the teacher would tell her to go to the cafeteria for a snack, even if class is in session.

Translation: "At least they wouldn't be punished for dozing off in class; overall, the class atmosphere at Tiresen is still quite relaxed, like how Xiao Li Mao classmate's stomach would growl from hunger, and the teacher would tell her to go to the cafeteria for a meal, even if class was in session."

Ari Digital and Twin Turbo's past actions are exceptions.

Translation: "What Ailishuma and Shuang Wolun did initially was an exception."

It sounds like this matter is settled, but Aomo again asks: "How are those students?"

Translation: "It sounds like this matter is settled, but Aomo then asked: \"How are those students? \""

"According to the Fuji Dormitory Head, they look fine and are attending class normally."

Translation: "\"According to the Fuji Dorm Head, they look fine and are attending class normally. \""

"After they calmed down, didn't they give any other clues?" Aomo, somewhat puzzled, offered some detailed thoughts: "For example, what the ghosts looked like—this could also help with the incident analysis."

Translation: "\"Didn't they give any other clues after calming down? \" Aomo, somewhat doubtful, offered some detailed thoughts: \"For example, the appearance of the ghosts and monsters—this could also help with incident analysis. \""

"The younger they are, the less likely they are to take their own words seriously when adults treat them as background noise."

Translation: "\"The younger they are, the less likely they are to take their own words seriously when adults dismiss them as idle talk. \""

Ah, yes, Trainer Linton certainly has plenty of experience dealing with children, Shunkawa Jinshou said with a slightly troubled smile. But you should know that children's remarks often lack coherence.

Translation: "\"Ah, indeed, Training Officer Lin Dun has plenty of experience dealing with children, \" JunChuan JiangSheng's face showed a slightly troubled smile. \"But you should also know that children's words often lack sufficient coherence. \""

Of course, Aumu gave a slight nod of acknowledgment. Most of the horse girls in the junior division are only thirteen or fourteen, but formalizing things actually aids intellectual growth, so Miss Shunkawa?

Translation: "\"Of course, \" Aomo gave a slight nod in acknowledgment. \"Most of the junior high horse girls are only thirteen or fourteen, but formal training actually helps intellectual development, so Miss JunChuan? \""

"You're really curious about this, huh..." Shunkawa Jinshou sighed helplessly and began rummaging in her pocket for something.

Translation: "\"You're really curious about this, huh... \" JunChuan JiangSheng sighed helplessly, then started rummaging in his pocket for something."

A 19-year-old young man is usually extremely enthusiastic about paranormal matters.

Translation: "\"A 19-year-old young man usually holds twelve parts of enthusiasm for paranormal matters. \""

But of course, it's still a bother, Miss Shunkawa.

Translation: "\"But of course, it's still a bother, Miss JunChuan. \""

Well, it's not exactly a trouble, but you really need to prepare for disappointment, Shunkawa Jinshou said, having already taken out her terminal and switched the light screen to public mode, displaying several photos. Just like this, these are reconstructions of what those students think ghosts look like; do you think they could serve as reference?

Translation: "\"It's not really a bother, but you really need to prepare for disappointment, \" JunChuan JiangSheng, having taken out his terminal, set the light screen to public mode and displayed several photos: \"Like this, these few are the students' reconstructions of the ghosts' and monsters' appearances; do you think they could serve as reference? \""

... Aumu looked at the drawings, which could be called elementary school doodles, his tone lacking confidence. Probably... it's not possible.

Translation: "\"... \" Aomo looked at what could be called elementary school doodles on it, his tone lacking confidence: \"Probably... it can't be. \""

It just isn't possible! Shunkawa Jinshou thought Trainer Linton was being unnecessarily polite in this situation, which created an obvious distance.

Translation: "\"It just can't be! \" JunChuan JiangSheng felt that Training Officer Lin Dun was retaining unnecessary politeness in such a place, thereby giving an especially obvious sense of distance."

But she felt that given their current interaction, it wouldn't be appropriate to point it out directly, so she changed her tone and said:

Translation: "But she felt that, given their current interaction, it wouldn't be good to point it out directly, so she changed her tone:"

However, this isn't really a big deal; even if it were truly ghosts or monsters, whether they could harm the students is questionable, let alone the fact that the statues of the three goddesses stand in the square—how could there be mischievous spirits under the gods?

Translation: "\"Actually, this isn't really a big deal; even if it were truly ghosts and monsters, whether they could harm the students is also a question, let alone the fact that the Three Goddesses Statues stand in front of the plaza—how could there be spirits causing trouble under the gods? \""

Indeed so, Aumu gave a slight nod, feeling somewhat relieved. But I still suggest thoroughly checking one of the junior high school buildings; perhaps the students misidentified something, and for the future we should still pay a bit of attention.

Translation: "\"Indeed, \" Aomo gave a slight nod, feeling a bit relieved, \"but I still suggest thoroughly checking the junior high teaching building; maybe the students mistook something, and for the future we should still pay a bit of attention. \""

Indeed, the school... uh, Trainer Linton, would you like to go rest first?

Translation: "\"Indeed, in fact the school... uh, Training Officer Lin Dun, would you like to go rest first? \""

Shunkawa Jinshou noticed Aumu's yawn that wanted to come out but was held back.

Translation: "JunChuan JiangSheng noticed Aomo's yawn that wanted to come out but was held back."

Ah, perhaps indeed, sorry, then I'll take my leave.

Translation: "\"Ah, maybe indeed, sorry sorry, then I'll take my leave. \""

Go get some good rest; insomnia is also a big problem.

Translation: "\"Go get proper rest; insomnia is also a big problem. \""

Okay, goodbye.

Translation: "\"Okay, goodbye. \""

Goodbye.

Translation: "\"Goodbye. \""

Upon entering the gate, the yawn that wanted to come out but was held back first subsided, but after a few seconds it still came out; it's precisely this kind of vague reality that makes the problem invisible altogether, just as Aumu said—his insomnia is not feigned but factual.

Translation: "Entering the gate, the yawn that wanted to come out but was held back first subsided, but then it was still emitted after a dozen seconds; this kind of virtual-real interplay makes the problem completely invisible, just as Aomo said his insomnia is not feigned but factual."

Can having the clues to a dream investigation cut off cause insomnia?

Translation: "\"Can having the dream investigation's clues cut off cause insomnia? \""

More accurately, I'm too angry to sleep.

Translation: "\"More accurately, it's being angry to the point of being unable to sleep. \""

Aumu, lying on the completed unfolded folding recliner, placed the back of his hand on his forehead; at this point he truly showed his fatigue.

Translation: "Lying on the fully unfolded folding recliner, Aomo placed the back of his hand on his forehead; only then did he truly show his fatigue."

Shunkawa Jinshou thought his insomnia was due to physical reasons, but actually it was just his brain at 2 a. m. asking, "Are you going to sleep?" "Of course." "But after you finished battling Ludwig, you got kicked offline."

Translation: "JunChuan JiangSheng thought Aomo's insomnia was due to physical reasons, but actually it was just his brain at two in the morning asking, \"\"Do you want to sleep? \"\" \"\"Of course, \"\" but after you finished battling Ludwig you got kicked offline. \""

We need to keep the quoted speech inside. We'll translate: "JunChuan JiangSheng thought Aomo's insomnia was due to physical reasons, but actually it was just his brain at two in the morning asking, \"Do you want to sleep? \" \"Of course, \" but after you finished battling Ludwig you got kicked offline."

「……」

Translation: "\"... \""

This fist began to harden, and profanity started to brew as he gritted his teeth.

Translation: "This fist began to harden, and dirty words began to brew in his clenched teeth."

Thus he fell asleep at 4:30, then woke up at the 7:20 alarm, went to buy breakfast and catch the bus.

Then I met JunChuan JiangSheng, and instead his topic invigorated me.

"Are you omitting something? For example, who is the person who gave you the dream investigation ticket?"

"Can't you just focus on eating your noodles?" Aomo closed his eyes and sighed.

Dragging his exhausted body to the academy and still going to the cafeteria to bring breakfast for his subordinate horse girls, he was almost moved to tears, yet the other side still thought he was being perfunctory.

Well... he really was being perfunctory; those few noodle shops off-campus on the roadside have pretty high ratings, while the cafeteria's can only be described as average.

And although Ailisuzhi seems to live without restraint, she is actually a wealthy lady who will shout for Keemun or Sabaragamuwa tea and can produce a pile of expensive professional equipment.

Some things can be casual, some cannot be compromised, but he is indeed also very sleepy.

"I'm almost done eating, fine, I can also not ask."

"But what if I say I can figure out a way to let you reconnect?"

"Using your research? Don't talk while eating noodles..."

"... Of course using my research, but let's talk about it later."

Accompanying those words, Aomo heard the sound of the chair moving as the other stood up, and also heard the footsteps moving—first heading away, then gradually approaching.

Noticing that the footsteps were already near, Aomo opened his eyes, thinking the other would cause trouble again, but saw the other take off a white lab coat, drape it over him, and slightly bend to adjust the askew collar.

Those scarlet eyes beneath the lenses were earnest and meticulous, reminding Aomo of the scene when the other conducted experiments.

"If you keep this up, I might have to prepare blankets in the lab for you, you troublesome guinea pig," Ailisuzhi, after confirming the cover was steady, rose again, looked down at Aomo with some annoyance, flicked her hand, and said, "Sleep, sleep, I'll go to the library later to read; no one will disturb you."

"... Thank you," Aomo, somewhat surprised, even noticed that this white lab coat was obviously not Suzi's; the shoulder width that could drape over him was more like someone of a similar build, "but whose is this?"

"Yours," Suzi said impatiently, "you're a guinea pig who can chat with me a few sentences; you can occasionally work as an assistant too? Although I usually don't need an assistant."

"I have no objection to that, but you wouldn't be using the measurements taken yesterday during the super dream, would you?"

"Hmm~" The cheerful Ailisuzhi obviously had no intention of answering directly, turned around to tidy up the utensils and the small pack she needed to bring to the library later.

If it was measured yesterday, the speed at which this white lab coat was obtained is somewhat fast, but considering today's production technology, spending a bit more money would not be that hard to achieve.

"By the way, will Chazuo be coming back later?"

"Her? She was previously summoned by Fuji Qishi to the junior high teaching building to check on that meaningless rumor."

Ailisuzhi, lifting the trash bag, obviously had no interest in the so-called supernatural incident.

"Well then, I'm off, rest well, Training Officer."

"I hope your data search goes smoothly."

"Of course!"

"Training Officer? No honorifics?" Aomo pondered this detail, but instead heard the door slam shut cleanly, almost able to picture the girl striding out with head held high, proud and aloof.

But after that, Aomo also cared about the result of the earlier question.

Chazuo has left......

Aomo couldn't sleep again either.
