Chapter 508: Chapter 508

Ji You raised her hand, wiped her face, and when she looked up, she saw five curious heads popping up in front of her.

Ji You stiffened the corners of her mouth, trying to save face, and said, "I just got sand in my eyes."

Sheng Qingyan elongated his voice: "Oh—"

Yue Qiguang curled his lip: "Oh—"

Yue Qiyuan stroked his chin: "Oh—"

Shen Changqing was silent: "Oh—"

Chu Jiaojiao giggled: "Oh—"

Ji You’s forehead vein throbbed: "Keep ’oh-ing,’ and I’ll start hitting people."

The five of them stared at Ji You with meaningful looks, chorusing, "Oh—We get it, you’re mad because you got caught crying?"

Ji You glanced at them, "You guys really are great at making things up. But I suggest you do less fantasizing, and more brain-enhancing."

The group laughed cheerily, and they all came to understand roughly what Mu Jianling had said to Ji You after she had been left alone. Hearing that the teacher Mu Jianling had not given Ji You a hard time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Yue Qiguang changed the topic, "Let’s discuss cleaning the toilets, number 4444, you’re one of the main culprits, so shouldn’t this task be yours?"

Yue Qiyuan spread his hands and said, "I’ve never cleaned a toilet in my life, so I’m afraid this challenging task will have to be handed over to you guys."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Qingyan was visibly upset and said, "When it’s time to crack jokes, how come you two don’t shut up? I’m the real victim here, I only said one sentence, and I got dragged down by you lot."

Yue Qiguang nudged him, impolitely retorting, "That’s what you get for having a loose tongue! You could have chosen to not say anything at all."

Shen Changqing looked up at the sky, treatinng all the argument as if it’s just wind passing by his ears, but—facing the reality that they had to start cleaning toilets from today, Shen Changqing couldn’t muster any enthusiasm either.

Chu Jiaojiao also had a trace of anguish on her face and asked, "Can we hire cleaning robots?"

When this was said, everyone collectively plunged into despair. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel⦿fire.net

Ji You impolitely added, "The teacher also said, none of you can be missing, everyone must put in the work personally."

Five people: "Shut up."

Ji You, stroking her chin, chuckled, "Thanks."

These guys, although they can be quite annoying on a regular basis, none of them serious, but when it comes to crucial moments, they’re still reliable. This thank you from Ji You came from the heart.

After classes ended that day, Ji You and the others learned what real despair was.

They looked at each other.

Yue Qiguang said, "Weren’t we supposed to clean the bathroom?"

Yue Qiyuan said, "This is the bathroom."

Sheng Qingyan burst into mournful tears: "This is not a human’s toilet..."

Chu Jiaojiao glanced at him and scoffed, "As if the human toilets are clean."

Shen Changqing raised his hand, rubbing his forehead, and then decided he didn’t want to talk. He just looked up at the sky.

Ji You opened her mouth wide and said, "So—the so-called toilets, are actually us cleaning the stables? Our school actually raises horses?"

The appearance of such a thing in Lanyue Star Military Academy, a school full of high-tech, is simply inconceivable. Besides, what era is it now? It is the interstellar era. When Ji You saw the horses, she was shocked on the spot.

Yue Qiguang spoke out what everyone was thinking, "Shouldn’t these things be at the Agricultural College next door?"

Shen Changqing let out a long sigh and said, "They’re temporarily rented from the Agricultural College territory. It’s said that one is worth millions."

Ji You licked her lips: "Quite the luxury, huh."

Yue Qiyuan’s voice was somewhat despairing: "So—they are bred in an ancient way, allowed to roam freely. You see that horse manure... you see it, right?"

Shen Changqing said, "It’s said that this batch of horses might be props for this year’s graduation exam..."

"Forget all that, let’s get started. The quicker we finish cleaning, the sooner we’re free." Chu Jiaojiao had little patience—whether it was a mule or a horse, to them, all of these were big shots, big bosses who needed to be well looked after!

Ji You felt the same and said, "Let’s get to work."

The rest of the boys followed with faces that looked as if they had lost all will to live.

Perhaps as a punishment, the stable had no modern tools at all, only very primitive brooms—those that required manual labor...

Yue Qiguang looked at the broom; his forehead veins bulging: "Isn’t this thing supposed to be in a museum?"

Looking at the broom, the others, including Ji You, also felt despair. They knew the entire range of the stable was tens of thousands of square meters, even the stable itself occupied more than a thousand meters. Within sight, all was horse manure, and the key issue was the smell, which was truly unpleasant...

Ji You suddenly pulled out several masks and gloves from her person, saying, "Artifacts—do you want them?"

Each one donned them and found that the smell around them finally became bearable. Chu Jiaojiao said in surprise, "Ji You, you’re really clever. How did you think of this?"

Ji You said with slight pride, "You young people, you just don’t have enough life experience." After knowing she had to clean toilets, she prepared these for herself, and, don’t mention it, they really came in handy at this time.

The group of six, including Ji You, each took a broom and started working.

Meanwhile, Lin Lele stood by herself, with a gloomy face.

The robot managing the stables spoke up in time, reminding, "Student Lin Lele, please start cleaning the stables right away. If you stay inactive for more than a minute, your performance will be reported immediately to Teacher Mu Jianling, the security office, and to Admiral Lin Jun."

Lin Lele gritted her teeth: "Bastard!"

Lin Lele could only pluck up her courage, hold her nose, and start cleaning with the broom.

No one cared about her.

Looking at the six people on the other side who were chattering and laughing, then at herself so lonely, Lin Lele felt wave after wave of bitterness in her heart.

A lump of horse manure flew diagonally past her, nearly hitting her head. She turned her head and glared at the instigator: "Yue Qiguang!"

Yue Qiguang withdrew his broom and spoke in a disdainful tone: "Seeing an idiot makes my hands uncontrollably urge to punch someone."

Fire blazed in Lin Lele’s eyes, and she felt an immense sense of injustice, furiously saying, "Are you even a man? You resort to hitting girls?"

Yue Qiguang was about to speak when Chu Jiaojiao interrupted him, stroking her fingers and saying, "Leave bullying girls to me!"

Lin Lele felt like crying.

She had never borne such grievance in her life.

Seeing those who were acting out of tune around her, she figured that if they weren’t stopped, Lin Lele might indeed be driven to tears. Ji You heaved a deep sigh and said, "Well, the matter of bullying a girl, leave it to me. I’m more professional than you guys."
