"Liu Chan had great respect for and listened to Zhuge Liang. He regarded Zhuge Liang's 'Chu Shi Biao' as a guiding principle. You could say he wasn't clever because he used every person mentioned in 'Chu Shi Biao,' but you could also say he was clever because he only used the people from 'Chu Shi Biao.'

Jiang Wei: Your Majesty, I have a plan.

Liu Chan: Wait, let me see. Hmm, you're not in 'Chu Shi Biao,' take back your plan.

That's basically the idea. But Liu Chan was also pretty impressive; it took expending all the people in 'Chu Shi Biao' for the kingdom to fall. To think he's a complete idiot just because of the phrase 'too happy to think of Shu' doesn't do him justice. If Yue Fei had a ruler like Liu Chan, he'd probably have had his fill of victories."

Bai Bufan, known as the 'Three Kingdoms Little Brother,' explained to Zhou Baowei.

"Oh, oh." Zhou Baowei nodded.

A few seconds later, Zhou Baowei looked at Bai Bufan again and asked, "I've also memorized 'Chu Shi Biao,' and I remember it mentions the late emperor in the first sentence. Why didn't Liu Chan make use of the late emperor?"

Bai Bufan: "(;☉_☉)?"

Is this question even valid?

"I swear I need to see what's inside your head!" Bai Bufan rolled up his sleeves, ready to act. "You're treating Liu Chan like he's a Necromancer? That's way out of line!"

After agreeing to occasionally guide the socially awkward Wang Ze, Lin Li and the group entered the classroom.

"Why did Old Jian call you guys over?" asked Chen Tianming curiously, seated next to the back door as soon as they entered the classroom.

"Round it up and it's like we filmed a detective series," answered Bai Bufan.

Chen Tianming: "?"

Let's speak in plain Chinese.

"We actually just dealt with a food delivery thief..."

There was no need for further secrecy, so Lin Li openly recounted the events of the day.

Letting it out might be even better.

Returning to his seat, Lin Li checked his phone and continued browsing the confession wall for potential rivals. He was surprised to find himself being quite popular, even warranting a full post on the confession wall.

The system did well.

The post was published around six in the evening and had attracted numerous comments, consisting of praise and recognition from strangers as well as a few familiar names.

"Qin Zeyu: He's my bro. Pretty girls, you can add me, send your photos, and once I screen them, I'll introduce you to him."

Qin Zeyu even leeched off his bro in the back row for profit, truly heartless.

"Gummy Bear: Indeed, you don't need to contact him. I heard he already has someone he likes. I think it's someone named Gummy Bear."

"Are you nuts? Copying that too?" Lin Li looked at Bai Bufan and joked upon seeing this ID.

Lin Li wanted to see that text but not if Gummy Bear wasn't the one who posted it.

Bai Bufan glanced at Lin Li with a teasing expression: "Lin Li, guess who checked my profile two minutes after I posted that comment?"

Lin Li directly took the phone.

"Ying"

"Visited your profile at 19:44."

It seemed someone was patrolling this post that had been up for over an hour.

Lin Li chuckled, returned the phone to Bai Bufan, and replied to Gummy Bear with "Love you, babe~."

A few minutes later, a message popped up in the "Three Men and a Dog" group chat.

"Ding Sihan: 'Picture,' @Lin Li, who is this, who is this, who is this? Your friend?"

"Lin Li: Not a friend, it's my dog."

"Bai Bufan: Lin Li, your mom's a baddy."

"Chen Yu Ying: 'Little Bear peeks.'

...

The next day, Friday.

It was the last day of the sports meet, and Class 4 had only a few events left to participate in.

Either they'd already finished with good results, or they hadn't advanced to today's finals.

Lin Li's event, being essentially the last for Class 4, included the relay race preliminaries in the morning and the relay race finals in the afternoon—if they made it.

But it shouldn't be a problem, since Class 4 had himself, Wang Ze, and Chen Tianming and Qin Zeyu weren't slow runners either.

Upon reaching the class base, Wang Ze was intently focused on his phone.

"Chatted up a storm?" A glance revealed he was still chatting with a senior.

"I think this senior is really nice," Wang Ze said, looking up sheepishly.

"What's nice about her?"

"Nice that she's really a girl."

Lin Li: "..."

It was clear Bai Bufan had left a significant psychological scar on Wang Ze.

"But she didn't post any pictures on her profile." Lin Li, who had this senior's QQ, knew this, "How can you be sure of her gender? Careful you don't like what you see when you meet."

"If I'm not satisfied, I'll deal with it then. For now, I'm enjoying this emotional value," Wang Ze replied nonchalantly, "I've come to terms with it, no big deal."

"That's good, it seems you won't become our class's second Chen Tianming," Lin Li acknowledged.

With some time to spare before the relay race event began, Lin Li sat next to him, browsing his phone to pass the time.

"Is this Lin Li?"

Hearing a voice, Lin Li looked up. It was a girl he didn't recognize.

"That's me. What can I do for you?"

The girl met Lin Li's eyes briefly before looking down bashfully and said, "Lin Li, I like you…"

"What a coincidence," Lin Li exclaimed excitedly.

The girl's eyes brightened even more, and her words quivered with anticipation: "So you also like…"

"Yes, I like myself, too," Lin Li gave a thumbs-up, "Good taste."

Wang Ze choked on his saliva, leading to a coughing fit.

Not far away, Chen Yu Ying, who was chatting with Ding Sihan with her back to the class base, had her shoulders begin to shake.

Girl: "…Thank you."

He must be nuts.

No worries, he's handsome, being nuts is forgivable.
