"Come in. ”

A short word, low and rough, faintly revealed a majesty, and even through the door, you could feel the authority of the teaching director.

Hodden noticed that the grumpy youth's shoulders stiffened slightly, and then he followed the grumpy young man into the office.

The office is bright and cheerful, with a wall of Victorian glass windows directly behind it, and although the outdoors is also shrouded in thick clouds, the light begins to shine brightly, and the bookcases, desks and grandfather clocks carved from dark brown logs can be clearly seen.

But even with the good light, the whole room is still filled with a solemn and solemn atmosphere, faintly depressed.

As far as the eye can see, the irascible young man is completely devoid of the frivolity and mischievous nature of the class, and his up-to-head and upright posture seems to have been rigorously trained, and his every move is as if he had been measured with a compass and a ruler, which is in stark contrast to Hoden's lazy and boneless stance.

The white-bearded man sitting behind the desk, with his back to the light, his face hidden in the light, unable to accurately capture the details of his facial features and eyes, only a faint outline, he was busy with the things in hand with his head down, he did not raise his head at all, and said unhurriedly:

"Do you think I don't have anything else to do other than to arbitrate such trivial things?"

"No, sir, not at all. The grumpy young man replied with a straight look.

Hordon could sense the tension of the young man's voice, revealing a little nervousness.

"Student relationships are the cornerstone of learning. The white-bearded man finally raised his head, slowly leaned back in his chair, glanced at Hodden lightly, and then landed on the grumpy young man, "This is the principle of the founding of the Sykepace Academy, and it is also the will of our four founders. ”

"Dean of Studies. Hodden glanced at the irascible young man, and saw that he had no intention of quibbling at all, so he silently took all the charges -

But Holden is not prepared to admit his mistake, "Friendship and conflict, debate and controversy, these are the core ideas of St. Cray's College." My student relationship with Mr. Froude was very normal. ”

"We're just arguing......" Hodden paused for a moment, then opened his eyes and said nonsense, "whether wrestling posture has a positive correlation between the first move and the press." ”

The whitebearded man glanced at Hoden, and did not comment on Hoden's flamboyant quibbles, "Even if it is debate and controversy, we should maintain friendship with each other, this is gentlemanly etiquette." What's more, we need to be respectful even if we still have differences. ”

Then, the white-bearded man's gaze fell on the irascible young man again, "Whether it is from the noble or from the commoner, you and this gentleman ......"

"Helo. The grumpy youth took the initiative to add the name.

"Mr. Helo. The white-bearded man continued, "You have to set an example for the other students." I don't want to see such boring and childish things happen again, so you have to do everything together until the end of the semester. ”

"But, sir......" the grumpy youth tried to justify.

"Anything. The white-bearded man interrupted categorically, emphasizing again, and then, whether they agreed or not, he said directly, "You can leave." ”

......

It took less than a minute from entering the door to going out, and it felt like the chocolate bar had not even had time to unpack it, and it was already deprived of the qualification to taste it, let alone explore whether the sandwich was hazelnut or honey.

In fact, Hordon was looking forward to the dean's furious appearance: he didn't know if he would use psionic energy.

"He tied us together. ”

"It's unbelievable!"

"This is an absolutely impossible task!"

"This is what was specifically designed to humiliate me. ”

"I can't believe being punished for such a trivial matter!"

The grumpy young man squeezed out a few words of "exhaust" like a broken propeller, but it was the same complaint over and over again, without novelty or strength, and it began to get boring when he listened to it, and Hodden had no idea of responding at all.

"Say something. Like a lit firecracker, the irascible young man stopped without warning, turned his head to Hoden and complained.

Hoden's eyes widened and his face was full of innocence, "Didn't you say it had nothing to do with me?" ”

The words that were originally from the irascible youth were now returned by Holden's original words, and he couldn't help choking, which made the irascible young man scratch his head in frustration, "Then why didn't you keep your mouth shut in the office just now? If you can successfully pretend to be dumb, there may be nothing." ”

"I thought you said it was all against you. "Holden's understatement can infuriate someone.

"......" the grumpy young man almost didn't choke on himself, "yes, you just don't matter." ”

"Yes, I guess it is. Hodden nodded his head in agreement, and seeing that the irascible young man was about to blow up, he threw a bomb again, "I guess that since he is your father, it means that no matter what happens, he will definitely punish you, and it has nothing to do with me." So, there's no need to blame me for the mistake, I'm ready to leave now, and you reflect on it yourself. ”

After saying that, Hoden also winked at the grumpy youth, "Good luck." ”

The irascible young man almost exploded on the spot.

The Grumpy Youth's last name is Froude, the nameplate above the Dean of Instruction's desk is "Richard Froude", and with such a stark gap between the Grumpy Youth and the office and the Roudgy Youth, the conclusion is less complicated.

After Hodden told the truth, after a brief emotional surge, the irascible young man stood alone and lonely, and was soon overwhelmed by the crowd of students around him, and never followed up.

Realizing that he had missed the golden age of guarding his schoolbag, Holden's state of mind was relieved again, and he did not rush back, but walked back at his usual pace, and from a distance, he could see that the fallen young man was still standing in the square waiting, not leaving.

But the fallen youth only had the grumpy youth's schoolbag at hand, not Holden's.

But you can see an iceberg standing not far from the left side of the fallen young man, the two people maintain a parallel position horizontally, and the atmosphere is tense and confronting each other, but neither side speaks, but they are always vigilant with the rest of their eyes, it seems that as long as the other party moves a little, they will immediately burst out.

"Robben?"

Hoden raised his voice and called out, completely unexpectedly meeting Robben here, and then he could see his schoolbag lying alone on the ground, between Robben and the fallen young man, both of them seemed to be wary of each other, refusing to let the other get closer, which made his schoolbag look a little innocent and pitiful-

It's as if left on the ground and left unattended.

Even when they heard Holden's call, the two young men still gritted their teeth and refused to shake, and a battle of momentum was being staged.
