In the real world.
Lin Xiao looked at the tough guy in the field who was still in a daze and touched his chin.
Now that Brother Zhun has reappeared in this world, if he continues to be a hard-working reporter for a metropolitan newspaper, Tenten digging into deep mountains and old forests to dig up Space Beast news, sooner or later he will still be covered in injuries.
A safe place must be arranged for him.
"Reporter...Tenten works in the field and is exposed to wind and sun. I guess he doesn't even have five insurances and one housing fund, right?"
"I think we are quite compatible. It just so happens that Sobu High School, our school at Chiba Prefecture, has recently expanded its enrollment and merged. News Department seems to be short of an instructor and photography course instructor. The salary is generous, weekends are off, and there are winter and summer vacations.
Are you interested in coming to our school to experience the stable life of teaching and educating people?"
"Huh?"
Jun Himeya was completely confused.
He was obviously tracking an extremely terrifying unknown creature, and just now he witnessed the arrival of the god-like Light Giant.
Why did Light Giant start enthusiastically... introducing himself to the job of a high school teacher as soon as the painting style changed?!
"Well... I actually don't have a teaching qualification certificate..." Jun Himeya awkwardly wanted to refuse.
"Hey! What qualification certificate do you need!"
Lin Xiao patted his shoulder domineeringly. "I'll take care of this! We Principal are reasonable and good people! Come to Chiba Prefecture tomorrow morning, and I'll take you to go through the entry procedures in person!"
Lin Xiao finalized the matter without refusal, and then turned around to greet Ai Haibara and Conan who had not yet recovered:
"Let's go, little devils, let's go back to the camp to eat watermelon."
Evening.
Lin Xiao finished camping in the mountains and returned to Chiba Prefecture's high-end apartment.
"Huh... I'm more tired this weekend than going to school."
Lin Xiao threw himself into the soft sofa and rubbed his eyebrows.
Although Space Beast was defeated by him and his brother-in-law had also met him, there was one thing that always lingered in Lin Xiao's mind, making him feel that something was wrong.
He decided to directly ask the "Supreme Landlord" of the planet.
"Hello, Mother Earth, are you there?"
Lin Xiao made a call in the spiritual dimension, and his tone was like calling the neighborhood committee Big Mom:
"Let me ask you something, why did our originally well-integrated world of daily life suddenly spawn such indescribable cosmic garbage as "Space Beast"?"
"Has there been another big change in the world line? Or is there some blind evil god who is eyeing our place?"
One second, two seconds.
In the spiritual dimension, the vast, inclusive, and huge consciousness that represents the will of the entire planet slowly responded.
However.
To Lin Xiao's expectation, the emotion conveyed by Earth's Will did not have the solemnity of "the enemy is now", but was filled with a kind of... humanized [disgusting] and [confused]!
[...I don't know.]
Earth's Will conveyed a feeling of grievance:
[Those smelly black spores did not invade through conventional space at all, but suddenly one day, as if falling out of some hidden high-dimensional crack, they inexplicably grew in the deep mountains and old forests!]
[Not only do they eat living things, they also pollute my soil! They are like a group of cosmic cockroaches that I can't get rid of! So disgusting!]
Earth's Will even conveyed a "well done" sentiment to Lin Xiao very affectionately:
[Fortunately, you completely evaporated the biggest bug! Next time you see this kind of thing, don't give me face and burn it with the land! Don't let them multiply on my body!]
"..."
Feeling Mother Earth's emotional collapse, which was like "a southern girl seeing a big cockroach slapped in her hand", the corners of Lin Xiao's mouth twitched twice and she suddenly opened her eyes.
"Not even Earth's Will knows how they got in?"
Lin Xiao touched his chin, his eyes gradually becoming sharper.
Someone, or some kind of high-dimensional existence that transcends the conventional laws of the universe, secretly treated these "Alien Beast Spores" as garbage and forcibly released them into the world!
"Interesting..."
Lin Xiao sneered, and a dangerous red and silver light ignited in his dark eyes:
"It seems that someone insisted on throwing cockroaches into my Mother Earth house."
"It doesn't matter which dimension you are, since you dare to reach out to my territory."
"Then just pray that I don't catch you along the network cable."
In the early morning of the next day, the streets of Chiba Prefecture just felt a bit of the coolness of early autumn.
Jun Himeya was carrying the old Single-Lens Camera, standing at the intersection, his eyes still a little confused.
What happened in the deep mountains and forests last night was like a ridiculous dream.
"Come to Chiba Prefecture's Sobu High School..."
Jun Himeya murmured to himself, just as he was hesitating whether to go to this high school to take a look.
"Hey, brother Zhun, it's good morning."
An easy-going voice sounded next to him. Jun Himeya turned his head suddenly and saw Lin Xiao carrying a breakfast sandwich from a convenience store. Naturally, Earth Flow came over.
"You..." Jun Himeya was stunned.
"Why are you wandering around on the street so early in the morning? You don't even get five insurances and one housing fund in your current job of running social news, right?"
Lin Xiao took a bite of the sandwich and skillfully put his arm around Jun Himeya's shoulders. "Let's go, I'll take you to the onboarding process."
"Huh? Wait... recruitment?!"
When Jun Himeya was completely confused, he was pulled into the door of Sobu High School by Lin Xiao in an extremely semi-forced manner, and he entered the Principal room without any hindrance.
Principal Indoor.
The gray-haired old Principal, who shamelessly boasted at the school meeting a few days ago that he had "good feng shui in his chosen location," was holding a tea cup and admiring his newly renovated luxurious office.
"Bang."
Lin Xiao didn't even knock on the door, just opened it and walked in.
"Who is so unruly--"
Old Principal was about to get angry, but the moment he saw clearly that the person coming was Lin Xiao, his wrinkled face, as if he had learned face-changing in Sichuan opera, seamlessly switched from "furious" to "extremely flattering smile" in an instant!
"Oops! It turns out to be classmate Lin Xiao! You are here today, do you have any instructions?" Principal rubbed his hands humbly.
Lin Xiao pushed Jun Himeya forward and said casually, "This is my friend, who used to be a reporter. I think after our school merged, [News Department] seems to be lacking an instructor? Let him try."
Jun Himeya took out his resume with some embarrassment. "Um... Mr. Principal, this is my resume. I actually don't have formal teaching qualifications..."
"Ouch! What kind of resume do you want!!!"
Old Principal pushed the resume away in an extremely grandiose manner. Without even looking at it, he slapped the desk hard and said righteously:
"Since it was brought here by classmate Lin Xiao! He is definitely a top education talent that is rare to see in a century!"
"Sir, right? From today on, you are the chief instructor of our Sobu High School News Department! Part-time photography class instructor! The salary is based on the highest level of special teachers! You can report directly to the class in the afternoon!"
