Has Su Yuan's condition become so serious? (Seeking follow-up reading!!!)

Ancient method of refining corpses, such a foul thing, better to not have it at all.

Su Yuan immediately lost interest in completing this Favorability Task.

But this task couldn't be canceled or abandoned, so he could only leave it be and let nature take its course.

While Su Yuan was troubled by the new task, martial arts teacher Li Ziquan and physical education teacher Zhuge Tie finally finished their argument.

"Su Yuan, don't argue with a brute like Teacher Zhuge. Teacher will take you to eat."

Li Ziquan pushed Zhuge Tie aside and, with a gentle smile, took Su Yuan's hand, pulling him towards the cafeteria.

Zhuge Tie snorted and said:

"Su Yuan, your physical fitness is too mediocre. Your body is the capital for all your athletic achievements. You'll drink all of my Black Horned Bull Bone Soup at noon later."

Saying this, he also walked into the cafeteria.

Hearing the words of the two teachers, Su Yuan suddenly understood.

When Teacher Zhuge stopped him earlier, he had probably already figured out what to do about him not being able to get food in line at the cafeteria.

Which was to take him through the teachers' special channel to get food.

Even if he really ran ten laps on the field, he probably wouldn't go hungry.

So thoughtful!

It was said that teacher's meals contained many nourishing ingredients not found in student meals, so he was in for a treat.

Su Yuan thought happily, a blessing in disguise.

Upon entering the cafeteria, he was met with a bustling crowd. Every food service window was packed with people, and most of the tables were occupied.

Su Yuan quickly found his "good old son" (a term of endearment for someone he cared about), who was still queuing for food.

Ha!

Su Yuan smiled smugly and, following the two teachers, strode towards the teachers' channel.

Just then, a student carrying half-eaten food walked past Su Yuan and dumped it into a nearby Swill Bucket.

Seeing this, Su Yuan, who always cherished food, couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

And this student's behavior was not an isolated incident; the Swill Bucket was already piled high with leftovers.

Gazing at the half-eaten Spiritual Fruit in the bucket, a half-eaten steamed bun soaked in swill, and bones with plenty of meat still attached, a strange idea suddenly popped into Su Yuan's mind.

Did this discarded food count as sect resources?

With this thought, Su Yuan quickly walked to the Swill Bucket, grabbed its rim, and repeatedly chanted in his mind to claim it as his own.

However, nothing happened.

Tsk, it seemed it had been classified as discarded sect resources, so he couldn't exploit this loophole.

Just as Su Yuan was feeling a bit disappointed, a hesitant voice sounded from behind him:

"Classmate, can you move aside?"

Su Yuan turned his head. The person was a student who was about to dump their leftovers. Their tray still had a whole egg yolk left, which looked quite tempting.

This shouldn't be classified as discarded resources by any means, right?

A thought suddenly flashed through Su Yuan's mind, and he asked with a sincere expression:

"Classmate, I need some leftovers to feed my dog. Could you let me handle your leftovers? Of course, I'll wash the tray clean too."

"Uh, okay."

Seeing Su Yuan's earnest request, the classmate could only nod and hand the tray to Su Yuan.

The next second, a "ding-dong" sound echoed in Su Yuan's mind.

[Task Two: Secret Infiltration (In Progress)]
[Task Progress: Resources Plundered (1/100)]

"Oh ho, I guessed correctly, didn't I?"

Su Yuan's heart rejoiced.

Although the task progress had only increased a little, there were five to six hundred students in the cafeteria!

Even if only one-fifth of them had leftovers, his task could be completed in one fell swoop!

With this in mind, Su Yuan dared not miss the opportunity. He quickly asked the cafeteria's cleaning aunt for a pile of clean trash bags, brought over several trash cans, and lined them with the trash bags one by one.

"Su Yuan, what are you doing?"

Zhuge Tie, who had already entered the teachers' channel, asked with a frown.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, I can't eat with you. I have more important things to do now."

After speaking, Su Yuan, carrying these trash cans, stood in front of the Swill Bucket, waiting with a solemn expression.

Teachers Li Ziquan and Zhuge Tie were stunned by this scene.

They watched as Su Yuan took the trays from student after student who was about to dump their leftovers, then sorted the food from the trays into different containers, looking just like... an old man packing up food at a rural banquet.

"Classmate, over here, over here! Just give me the food trays, I'll wash them clean."

"No trouble, no trouble at all. Thank you, classmate, for your support."

A strange look appeared on Zhuge Tie's stern face as he gazed at the gradually filling trash cans. He couldn't help but say:

"I just heard this kid say he was going to take these leftovers to feed dogs? What kind of dog eats this much in one meal? A Foundation Establishment Realm Dog Demon?"

Just as the two were filled with confusion, a figure walked through the cafeteria entrance. It was the homeroom teacher of Class 2, Grade 3, Yue Lin.

The two teachers exchanged a glance and proactively walked over.

"Teacher Yue, you're Su Yuan's homeroom teacher, right? Do you have any idea what he's doing right now?"

Li Ziquan pointed at Su Yuan and asked Yue Lin.

Yue Lin was startled. He looked at Su Yuan, who was guarding the Swill Bucket, and a storm surged in his heart. He instinctively said:

"This kid, has his condition worsened so quickly?"

"What?!"

He had only shown slight mental abnormalities in the morning, and by noon, he had become addicted to picking up trash. This seemed like a typical symptom of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

If it progresses further, will he completely lose control and go mad?

Thinking of the exceptionally talented students he had seen in his teaching career who had gone mad due to a single misstep, Yue Lin couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

Is another young Prodigy going to be crippled... Wait, Su Yuan seems to be just of average talent, not really a Prodigy.

Never mind then.

After his thoughts were briefly interrupted, Yue Lin carefully observed Su Yuan's mental state again and coughed lightly:

"It's also possible that Su Yuan's family situation isn't very good, which is why he's collecting these leftovers to eat."

Li Ziquan, Zhuge Tie: "..."

This is even more pathetic and heartbreaking!

Zhuge Tie hesitated slightly and said hesitantly:

"Teacher Li and I invited Su Yuan to eat just now, but he refused. He doesn't seem like someone from a poor family who can't afford to eat."

Li Ziquan said softly:

"Teacher Yue, you're always so pessimistic. Can't you think in a more positive direction?"

Hearing this, Yue Lin began to waver. He analyzed:

"If we rule out the possibility of illness and family background, then there's only one reason left for Su Yuan's actions."

"That is, he cherishes food and can't bear to see so much of it being thrown away. He plans to use this food to feed pets like cats, dogs, tigers, and crocodiles."

Li Ziquan, Zhuge Tie: "..."

Alright, we're back where we started.

After a moment of silence, Zhuge Tie said:

"It's fine for Su Yuan to collect leftovers, but I just realized today that the students are throwing away too much food every meal. It seems like the students nowadays are living too well."

Yue Lin shook his head:

"Even so, a considerable number of students in the School now prefer to order Takeout rather than come to the cafeteria. If we impose stricter requirements, I'm afraid more than half of the students who eat in the cafeteria will decrease."

He looked at Su Yuan and sighed:

"Young people like Su Yuan, who are thrifty, are rare nowadays."

Just then, a "ding-dong" sound suddenly echoed in Su Yuan's mind.

[Note: An elder from an unknown sect has also increased their favorability towards you!]
