Chapter 1438: and translation of title

NO. 54: Because she has been waiting all along.

To be honest, this perhaps cannot be said to be the fault of Suzi, Chazuo, and Aizhi.

Aomo training officer's squad chat room started out as a fairly lively five-person chat room; everyone usually far apart, or when internal minor conflicts arose, they would type messages to communicate.

But a few months later, four more members joined.

Ludaofu Xiangzheng, Sirius symbol, Chengtian BaiRen, Qianming representative.

It's like a class group that suddenly had the homeroom teacher dragged in midway.

After that, the squad chat room, which had been somewhat lively, quickly became deserted.

Even a month later, those four second-generation members collectively fell silent, entering a state of 'tacitly agreeing not to add pressure to Aomo, only showing up when necessary,' and still couldn't liven up the chat room.

Usually no one chatted in there, and when they needed to find the training officer, they each resorted to private chat means.

Only when someone's mind is active and they have an ulterior motive will they post messages in there just for others to see.

For example, during winter break, Suzi once posted pictures of the office kitchen and living room with a 'wrong group' appearance, adding a few sentences, which prompted several group members to reply with question marks.

Likewise, Qianming and Ludaofu had both tagged Aomo in the chat to ask whether the training date and location had changed, causing the chat room to 'resurrect,' with others casually asking what training was to be done.

Regardless of whether these people truly care about training, the chat room did indeed have a little bit of activity.

At that time, Aomo, although he could sense some traces of swords and blades from that conversation, didn't know where the contradiction came from; he only felt that the chat room being active was a good thing, but obviously, after that, the chat room fell silent again.

Even if others later used the same way of tagging Aomo as Qianming representative and Ludaofu symbol, opening the topic, the conversation would end after a few sentences, with no one joining in.

Nobody joined in, that's all.

Aomo always suspected others were peeking at his screen, and felt that the squad chat room being like some 'eternal voyeur you' simulator was overly abstract; rather than saying they were attacking each other, it was more like they were collectively giving themselves the silent treatment, making it hard to get along even a little.

But that period was also when Aomo was busiest, even having to run around everywhere.

Aomo really had no time to deal with this situation that seemed to have become a faction, yet also resembled each fighting their own battles, so the phenomenon has persisted to this day.

After finally finding a reason to bring it up, however, everyone's reaction didn't seem pretended.

—It seems they really aren't looking at that chat room anymore.

Thinking again about what these people had been doing a few days earlier, Aomo couldn't help but sigh.

Aimu Zhiji, Manchester Chazuo, Ailisuzhi.

In less than a week, three people had consecutive mindset issues, causing Aomo to have no peace these days; even when he could rest, he couldn't rest easy, and the state of squeezing time to relax still felt like stealing leisure from busyness a few days ago.

Fortunately, that similarity was only a similarity.

Simply not having to run around east and west to arrange meals was already a great improvement in the situation.

Even yesterday's college team-building still let Aomo use the tactic of mixing substitute drinks to feign intoxication to escape battle; such team-building had already ceased to exist in the first half of the year.

Aomo felt fortunate, but some people were very reluctant.

It was heard that Miss Junchuan and Thus we output: Thus we output: Thus we output: QiuChuan chairman even, before being sent back last night, issued indignant accusations, accusing that after tonight they would again have to busy themselves with endless work.

That image of kicking the desk, bold and heroic, had circulated in the chat room for a whole night, but inexplicably it didn't spread, and by early morning the file was gone.

Everyone said it was the mighty hand of the AI Three Goddesses manifesting.

Whether it is or not isn't important; after all, most people still don't have that malice, let alone that idea, after all, that teasing isn't impossible.

Theoretically, everything everyone does via the campus network is under the surveillance of the AI Three Goddesses.

The central authority has never had a training officer who committed a crime by challenging artificial intelligence; only those who made major mistakes purely due to personal conduct and training direction, and were directly expelled and assigned elsewhere, exist.

This also inversely proves that the AI Three Goddesses are not as strict as many people worry.

The horse girl text prison is still insufficient to show; if you complain to a colleague and call the Junchuan secretary a green demon, you won't get a minor report filed.

Even pointing at the current horse girl magazine photospread and discussing which horse girl is a bit more erotic won't get you sought out by the horse girl police.

At most, a neighboring colleague wearing a gas mask will come over to advise, hoping you keep your voices down when discussing XP.

Leaving aside how many people had hangover headaches this morning, and not mentioning how many couldn't forget the drunken performance of certain people last night, Aomo only felt moved that his four high school girl subordinates, one after another being careless, ended up with only the chestnut‑haired long‑haired girl remaining steadfast.

At first glance it seemed like Lindun training officer's close‑fit cotton jacket was about to change hands to become a Northeastern big cotton jacket, but in fact, Bopang and Aizhi kept glancing at Chazuo because both noticed slight changes in Chazuo.

Should one say it's more enthusiastic… or more open‑hearted?

Compared to usual, the replies were faster, the smiles more frequent, and that habitually blunt, low‑pitched voice seemed to gain a few touches of the youthful softness expected of aJK, clearly enough to surprise the two keen companions.

Suzi indeed had talked with them about the training officer's 'flash of inspiration' regarding dreams.

Calling Guinea Pig‑kun, if he could use dreams to trigger the release of monster cards to give everyone psychological adjustment, thereby enhancing real‑world performance, that would create an unprecedented training method.

Regardless of whether the ever‑cautious Aomo accepts this 'unprecedented' claim, at least regarding yesterday's concrete encounter, Suzi definitely did not tell the two of them.

He didn't say he let the Carmilla card run wild, nor did he say Chazuo controlled Gatanjea to oppose himself and even charge into the lab.

Thus they also couldn't understand why Chazuo's change seemed not to be everyone's illusion.

What happened?

What did we miss?

Just like in the past, the people around Aomo always marvel at his tumultuous daily life, feeling that if they aren't careful they'll miss a lot.

But fortunately, if they really wanted to ask, Aomo would also be willing to clarify.

'The principle is somewhat complicated, but the whole thing is actually simple: it's nothing more than having connected with the dream, seen an unknown secret, and then a few brief Q&A.'

'Uh, wait a moment.'

Aizhi raised her hand, turned her head, and looked at Chazuo.

'Since it's an unknown secret, can we listen?'

Likewise, Bopang, who wanted to ask about this but got ahead of Aizhi, also gazed at Chazuo, who followed Aomo around like a little tail ever since they met that morning.

'……Yes.'

'……'

'……A more obvious change……'

'Indeed……'

Turning their head to make eye contact with Bo Fang, they then looked toward the one standing with arms crossed, seeming not to care at all about this side, just staring at Suzi, who represents Qianming's running for them.

Aizhi heard the younger sister Sang's surprised exclamation from beside their ear, which also counts as the two speaking for each other.

They've been getting along for almost half a year already, and they've long since grown accustomed to each other's extraordinary traits and each other's little secrets in their hearts.

Under the tacit agreement of not bringing it up if not asked, they had waited too long and simply tossed it to the back of their mind, almost forgetting the matter.

Even if they could see through some of the other's concealed nature, they all pretended not to know, but they never expected that one day the other would openly reveal themselves without any concealment, and even when brought up, they still maintained that attitude that everyone could know.

No… just how much have we all missed?

Not much, just the result of a single declaration.

A declaration?

"Yes, a declaration." Aomo said lightly.

They glanced at the screen where Xi Qianfeng's contact had suddenly appeared, then immediately turned their head back.

As for her cultivation, hobbies, and that special deceased person, I can refrain from inquiring, and I don't mind either; I only hope she can train steadily and also lend me a hand.
