Nhat Minh happily ran forward.
He greeted Le Na warmly.
By the way, he waved to Hoang Tuan behind and told him to hurry up.
Although the movements were very subtle and hard to notice.
But Hoang Tuan noticed that when Nhat Minh ran up to Le Na, she took a step back.
At the same time, her expression seemed unnatural.
It could be said to be a bit stiff...
"Le Na, this is my junior high school classmate, his name is Hoang Tuan, and he's in the same grade as us."
Nhat Minh introduced Hoang Tuan's identity to Le Na, then paused for a moment and continued, "Hoang Tuan, this is the Le Na I've mentioned to you."
"Hello, nice to meet you. Nhat Minh often talks about you."
Hoang Tuan said with a smile, carefully observing Le Na from top to bottom.
Really unexpected.
The current situation is just like he speculated in the classroom.
In front of him is Nhat Minh's girlfriend, Le Na.
She looks exactly like the girl he met at "Tran Hung Dao High School" before...
"Hello... hi."
However, after Le Na saw Hoang Tuan.
Her expression became very strange, initially quite calm, but suddenly became a bit confused and excited, even her speech became less fluent.
"Yo, really, you look like you're afraid of society, right?"
Nhat Minh teased from the side.
He didn't think much of it.
He thought that Le Na might be a little embarrassed meeting his friend for the first time.
After all, in his impression.
This cute girl was quite shy.
Even when she was called by the teacher to answer questions in class, her voice became as small as a mosquito's buzz.
"Okay, how about we go to the second-floor cafeteria? I'll treat you to a meal!"
Hoang Tuan didn't say much, just nodded.
Then the three of them headed towards the second-floor hallway of the cafeteria...
The cafeteria of Tran Hung Dao High School is similar to the school where Hoang Tuan used to attend.
The cafeteria is divided into two floors.
The first floor serves free meals.
Average quality, but you can eat to your fill.
The second floor offers more food options, and students use food vouchers to buy meals. Naturally, the food on the second floor tastes better.
But there is a drawback.
The second-floor cafeteria is actually a collaboration with an external business, not only limited in quantity but also quite expensive for regular students.
Usually, a few students pool their money together. If they want something delicious, they'll go to the second floor and order a small hotpot or a few small dishes...
The three of them went up to the second floor.
The first impression of Hoang Tuan here is cleanliness, spaciousness, and a pleasant lightness.
"Indeed, you get what you pay for, in comparison, well well."
Hoang Tuan couldn't help but think about the scene of squeezing on the first floor, carrying a large backpack.
If it weren't for his good physical fitness.
He feared that he would only be able to get food when there were fewer people, and he would eat leftovers...
"You two go find a seat, I'll order the food."
Tran Minh said to the two of them, then looked at the nearby menu board, stroked his chin in thought for a while, then turned around and asked them.
"Hey, do you two want hotpot or boiled dishes?"
"For me, anything is fine, as long as it's what Le Na likes."
Hoang Tuan replied casually, and began to look for places with more people.
Even for meals.
He also wants to try his luck and see if he can hear some gossip from other students, like recent "missing student incidents" or similar things...
"Oh, me too."
Le Na answered.
At that moment, she glanced at Hoang Tuan.
Seeing the other party not paying too much attention to her, she felt a little uneasy in her heart.
"Alright, you two find a spot, I'll order a small hotpot. The weather has been getting colder, let's have something warm to eat."
Done talking.
Nhat Minh didn't linger, he turned away with a smile and headed to the window to place the order, leaving Hoang Tuan and Le Na behind.
"Let's go over there."
Hoang Tuan chose a spot that he thought was pretty good.
Then he brought Le Na and walked over...
Both are people who have been pulled into this world for the second time.
Hoang Tuan felt that Le Na and Nguyen Ha Trang seemed a bit different.
He didn't know what Nguyen Ha Trang's original personality was like.
Now she has been assimilated, not to mention it.
But Le Na, Nhat Minh's girlfriend in this world...
She seemed a bit strange...
What's really strange is that from the beginning when the three of them walked together, Hoang Tuan noticed that she would occasionally sneak a glance at him.
Through the logic of Nguyen Ha Trang's assimilation, he initially thought that Le Na would also fall into the role assigned to her in this world.
But now.
It seems not to be the case...
Hoang Tuan can feel that the girl seems to care more about herself than Nhat Minh. If it's not because of the story's elements like being cheated on or something similar.
Then there's only one possibility.
Le Na may not have been fully assimilated.
That's why she reacts like this when she sees herself!
...
Hoang Tuan pulled out two wooden chairs and placed the large backpack on one of them.
While he was sitting in his own seat, Le Na also sat across from him.
At this point, Nhat Minh had not returned yet.
Only the two of them were at the dining table.
Hoang Tuan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to find some topics to test Le Na's reaction, trying to confirm his speculations about everything.
But before he could say anything.
After seeing that there was no one around, Le Na couldn't wait to say to him, "Hoang Tuan, I knew you would be here for sure!"
"Ah... that's right."
Hoang Tuan's thoughts about finding topics came to a halt.
He looked at Le Na saying that, and he didn't need to think anymore.
Obviously, the person on the other side is the one he met before at Tran Hung Dao High School.
And the memories are still there.
The process of assimilation is still not complete...
"Do you remember everything clearly, right?"
Now Hoang Tuan knew about it.
So there's no need to beat around the bush. He straightforwardly asked Le Na, wanting to understand the other party's situation before anything else.
"Ah, remember what?"
Le Na seemed not to respond to his question, stunned for a moment.
"Well, it seems you remember everything."
Hoang Tuan murmured to himself.
Pausing for a moment, he asked again, "When did you come to this world?"
"If you're asking about the time here, it's been a week..."
Le Na didn't know what Hoang Tuan wanted to do.
She just answered honestly.
"Do you see anyone else from the outside that you know? I mean, outside of this story's world."
"Yes, I've seen you."
Le Na nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, then she pointed at the large backpack next to Hoang Tuan and said, "Actually, at first, I thought I was hallucinating, but when I saw that big backpack of yours, I was sure it was you. You don't know, after I saw it, I felt safe immediately!
Hearing Le Na's tone.
Hoang Tu felt a little strange.
In his memory, this was probably a girl who rarely spoke, and was quite introverted.
Her true personality matched the role assigned to her in this world very well...
But Le Na, the girl sitting across from him right now.
The way she spoke seemed like someone experienced, speaking fluently.
"Just went through the story once and changed so much?"
Hoang Tuan felt a bit skeptical.
But what Le Na said next made his thoughts stop immediately.
"Where's Sister Thanh Linh? Why didn't she come with you?"
She leaned on the table and asked.
