Night’s Nomenclature

Wang Yun was a top student back in Hai City High School.

Originally, she planned to travel abroad to attend the AAPT Physics Bowl in March of next year.

Then, she would easily be able to attend the best colleges in the world.

If it weren’t for the need to get closer to Liu Dezhu, she would have wanted to study STEM.

Wang Yun chose this simple geometric problem just so that she could get to know Nan Gengchen and Qing Chen better, but now they seem to look down upon her.

Her self-esteem couldn't take it anymore.

Just as Wang Yun was about to argue with Nan Gengchen, Bai Waner stopped her and reminded, "Let's not mess up the big plans because of something small. Did you forget what Xiaoniu said? We need to tolerate!"

"Yeah, tolerate." Wang Yun said as she sat back in her seat.

At the same time, Nan Gengchen was still muttering next to Qing Chen, "Hey, do you think she asked the question because she likes me?"

Qing Chen didn't bother to answer but asked, "Did you get yourself involved with some hacker group in the Inner World? Why are you learning how to code all of a sudden?"

"No," Nan Gengchen said with a hint of guilt, "No, I just think it's fun… Very fun."

Mentioning learning, Qing Chen suddenly realized that he shouldn't stop learning either.

Although the technology of the Inner World far exceeded that of the Outer World, this did not mean that knowledge from the other world couldn't be useful, like the chess he learned led to his initial breakthrough in Prison 18.

Wait… Qing Chen suddenly realized what he needed to learn: Japanese.

He now had another background in the Inner World, and he could only understand what that person was saying through translation apps.

Qing Chen has maintained an attitude of seeking information for the past ten years, intending to use knowledge to improve his destiny.

This habit could not change even after being involved in the Inner World.

He quickly searched up some basic Japanese textbooks online and bought four of them at once.

As he paid for the books, he suddenly remembered something and searched up "Kamidai Sorane".

He was shocked.

Kamidai Sorane, who had an arranged marriage with him… was also a time traveler!

Because the chances of this happening were so slim, he overlooked the fact that it would.

The other person must have thought that he was a native of the Inner World, so she didn't hold back speaking Japanese.

But the problem was that his identity in the Inner World became even more confusing now.

How come this girl named Kamidai Sorane could speak Chinese so well? Was she raised in China, or did she have Chinese relatives in her family?

He went deeper into her bio and discovered that she was, in fact, mixed-race. Her mother was Japanese, while her father was Chinese.

Wang Yun glanced at his phone and said curiously, "Do you like this Japanese girl? You have been browsing all about her."

Qing Chen glanced up at her and said, "No."

Wang Yun just thought that he was being stubborn, so she didn't ask further.

But Qing Chen's mind was spinning. He searched up Kamidai Sorane simply out of boredom and never expected to actually get a result.

Back in the small room, the girl from the Kamidai Family was so quiet.

In the photo he was looking at right now, the girl was running in a sunflower field with her hair fluttering backward, and her smile was particularly brilliant.

It was a charming, simple, and innocent smile.

The profile about her showed that her dad came from China, and her mom was a native Japanese.

No wonder she could speak both languages.

Last year, she was awarded the Japanese Cinema Academy's Best Actress in a Supporting Role Award with the movie "Hibiscus Flower", and this year, she got a lead actress role in Director Yuki's "Sunflower"

Although these films weren't mainstream nor famous in other countries, Japanese media still claimed her to be "one of the most potential young actresses of the decade."

Qing Chen used Weibo and other news applications to keep up with social trends, but he didn't pay much attention to overseas celebrities, especially because she wasn't well-known yet.

As a result, he had never heard of the name.

Now after some research, Qing Chen felt more confused than ever about how he got involved with this kind of person.

At this moment, Wang Yun was still glancing at his phone from time to time, thinking, "Didn't you just say you don't like her? Look how devoted you are…"

But then she thought it was naive of Qing Chen to think that he could be with some foreign girl.

Wang Yun had seen "Hibiscus Flower" and "Sunflower" before, so she knew how fast Kamidai Sorane was gaining popularity in Japan. She wouldn't be surprised that before long, she would attract more fans globally.

Still, such a girl would be too far of a reach for a boy in a small city.

Qing Chen was perplexed as to how the Kamidais, according to the information he had, lived on the same continent as the other huge corporations.

After all, Li Shutong had informed him that the entire sea had been declared the forbidden area. It would be impossible to cross the water and reach him if the Kamidai Family resided on an island.

So, the only logical situation was that Japanese time travelers would transmigrate to the same continent as Chinese time travelers?

Qing Chen has yet to see a map of the Inner World. He must ask Lin Xiaoxiao for one next time.

After class, Wang Yun and Bai Waner went to meet up with Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen.

Hu Xiaoniu asked, "Any progress?"

Wang Yun looked helplessly and said, " Nan Gengchen and Qing Chen are both idiots. You know Nan Gengchen already, and Qing Chen today was staring at a hot Japanese girl the whole time during class."

Bai Waner asked, "Didn't the teacher say that Qing Chen is a good student? Why haven't we seen anything on him that seems like he's a good student yet…"

"Who knows," sighed Wang Yun, "Many students experience raging hormones around this time and start to fall behind around this time. Hey, do you know the two from our school who started dating? The girl used to be the first in the class, but then she was nowhere to be found on the top list."

As he was listening, Hu Xiaoniu frowned, "What did we talk about yesterday? We need to stop feeling proud about our past. If you keep thinking that these two are idiots, then how can we ever become friends with them?"

Wang Yun wanted to quit, "How about let's switch classrooms? I can go deal with Liu Dezhu, and you can be friends with Qing Chen."

At this time, the class representative Yu Junyi came down from upstairs and called towards Qing Chen from the hallway, "Qing Chen, the foreign teacher wants you in his office."

"Alright, I'll be there soon," said Qing Chen.

Luo City Foreign Language School had several foreign teachers, but they only taught one class a week that wasn't essential to the high school curriculum, mostly just chatting and singing in English.

This was the school's specialty class, simply built to attract some parents.

As Qing Chen left the classroom, Hu Xiaoniu suddenly asked Yu Junyi, "Hi, do you know what the foreign teacher wants Qing Chen for?"

Yu Junyi smiled and said, "How would I know? Qing Chen is his favorite student. For a while, Qing Chen kept asking him to practice speaking English after class, and they got to know each other pretty well. The teacher even brought back gifts from his country, and Qing Chen even gave me some chocolate."

Hu Xiaoniu and the others were stunned. This was enough to prove that Qing Chen could understand English just fine, and he wasn't the type of student they thought he was.

Hu Xiaoniu took a deep breath, "I'm suspecting that he is also a time traveler! I need to confirm again. Are you certain that he didn't hear you two talking?"

Bai Waner thought about it and said, "I can confirm that he was doing math problems when we talked, and he wasn't paying attention to us."

"That's not enough to prove that he's not a time traveler," said Hu Xiaoniu calmly, "I need to find a way to confirm."
