After school, there was a two-hour free period.
Because Kaguya was in the Student Council room, Ai couldn't enter without permission. But right now, Ai didn't care about that; being alone with Lin Feng was far more appealing. If they went back to the Dungeon world, they would be with the group most of the time, so moments of privacy would be rare.

A message from Kaguya appeared on Ai's screen: "Hayasaka, lots of tasks today. I'll probably be home late."
"Feng-kun... looks like I can't stay with you today. I need to head back to the Shinomiya mansion first."
Ai was annoyed, but she couldn't stay mad at Kaguya, who was like a little sister to her. She spoke to Lin Feng with an apologetic tone.
"It's fine. I can look around this world a bit. Besides, isn't Kaguya the person you want to help?"
"Mn!"
Hearing his understanding words made Ai very happy. No matter how much work awaited her at the mansion, she would continue to do her best.
Watching Ai leave in the Shinomiya family's luxury car, Lin Feng understood her feelings toward Kaguya. However... if Kaguya continued to be this willful, she might eventually drive away the one person truly on her side.
Bored, Lin Feng wandered around the campus until he spotted a small figure in the distance, jumping up and down, seemingly doing something strange.
Looking closer... wasn't that Iino Miko from lunch? What was she doing?
"Damn it, if only Kobachi were here... but she had family matters and had to leave early."
Little Miko missed her best friend dearly right now. She looked up at a thick branch that seemed miles away, her eyes starting to mist over.
"Isn't this the Public Morals Committee member from noon? What are you doing here?"
Lin Feng walked over, tossing two questions right at her.
"Eh?! Eehhh!"
"It's the crim... the transfer student from lunch! Q-Quick, come help me!"
Seeing Lin Feng, Miko immediately called for help. "Quick, squat down! I need to get up there to save that kitten!"
Her small body stood before Lin Feng as she strained on her tiptoes, trying to tap his shoulder. But facing Lin Feng with her height of barely 1.4 meters... it was a bit of a struggle.
"Meow~"
Lin Feng looked up. Sure enough, a small calico kitten was trembling on a branch above, meowing pitifully. It had clearly climbed up without thinking about how to get down and was now stuck.
"Hurry up! As a member of the Public Morals Committee, I order you, male student, to squat down!"
Realizing she couldn't reach his shoulder, Miko puffed out her cheeks in frustration. She had no choice but to try and use her authority to pressure him.
"Turn around first, and I'll let you sit on my shoulders."
"Turn around?"
Hearing Lin Feng's instruction, Miko's eyes glazed over slightly, her brain failing to process the logistics.
"Do you want to save the kitten or not? Hurry up."
"Ah... okay."Hearing Lin Feng's command, Miko's mind flashed back to the scene from lunch—the intense gaze of that gyaru, Hayasaka-senpai.
Like boyfriend, like girlfriend! They're both so wicked!
Defeated, the "Small Fry" Miko lowered her head and obediently turned 180 degrees.
"Is... is this okay?"
After standing there for three seconds with her back to him, Miko realized the new transfer student hadn't moved. She asked quietly, but before she could finish...
"Eep!!"
The moment the words left her mouth, she felt two large hands grasp her under her arms. In the next second, her feet left the ground, and the earth seemed to drop further and further away.
"Ah! Hey! Student! Calm down!"
Miko's voice was filled with panic. She thought this handsome, slightly roguish boy was going to bully her, causing her to stutter uncontrollably.
"Stop squirming. If I lose my grip, you're definitely going to fall."
As soon as Lin Feng said this, he felt Miko's body instantly go rigid. She didn't dare move a muscle. Scaring her really works.
"Uppie-uppie!!"
"!"
When Lin Feng uttered those two words, his movements were swift—unlike the slow, deliberate way he had initially lifted Miko off the ground.
"Put me down right now! We are at school!"
Miko exploded. While she was incredibly embarrassed, her indignation was currently winning out over her shame.
Although she had stopped struggling momentarily due to Lin Feng's warning, she now began to thrash about violently.
Her chances of breaking free were effectively zero, but she had no idea of the supernatural strength Lin Feng possessed.
"Fine, fine. I'll let you ride on my shoulders to save the kitten, okay?"
Lin Feng still had a trump card; otherwise, he wouldn't be teasing her about her height so boldly.
Having her weakness exploited, Miko's struggles gradually subsided.
First, a burst of energy; second, a decline; third, exhaustion. Miko had already struggled twice. With such a small body, her stamina was likely lower than average (even if her appetite wasn't).
Soon enough, Lin Feng had the petite Miko sitting on his shoulders, her smooth, slender legs dangling freely over his chest.
"Sit tight!"
With Lin Feng's height combined with Miko's upper body, they quickly reached the branch and rescued the kitten.
Every bit of this scene was witnessed by Shinomiya Kaguya, who was watching from the window of the Student Council building.
"Hayasaka... is that the person you like?"
Kaguya murmured this in her heart, her left hand tightening slightly on the windowsill.
She barely had any work to do in the Student Council today; most tasks had been completed yesterday. The reason she had told Hayasaka Ai to go home alone was precisely because she thought Ai would want to spend time alone with Lin Feng.
"Meow~" "Meow!"
Miko hugged the rescued kitten, cooing at it gently and affectionately.
"Ahem. Well, Public Morals Committee member, I'll be going now."
"W-Wait! Thank you for helping me, Lin... Lin Feng-kun."
"I am Iino Miko from Class 1-B. Thank you!"
Still hugging the kitten, Miko thanked Lin Feng repeatedly.
She truly was a cute girl with a heart for justice—even if her personality was a bit difficult. When faced with someone stronger than herself, she could only feign calmness while wearing a tiger skin of authority.
"What?! My father is here!"
Up in the Student Council room, Kaguya, who was still watching Lin Feng, was startled by her phone ringing. The moment she answered the call, her face went pale.
