"Whew, time flies, and tomorrow we're going to start the 'mission' again........"

Su Cheli was meaninglessly stirring the fried veal steak on his plate with a knife and fork, while fixing his gaze on Ye Xiaohan, who was sitting opposite. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ye Xiaohan also stirred the borscht in front of her with a soup spoon a little absentmindedly, after hearing Su Cheli's words, Ye Xiaohan's movements paused slightly, and then she raised her head, staring at Su Cheli tightly, and a hint of inexplicable expression appeared on her pretty face:

"What's wrong? Che Li~, you ..... Feeling 'scared'? ”

"It's not 'scared' for the time being, but the emotion of 'hesitation' is inevitable, after all, we have to face the test of deciding 'life and death'~."

Su Cheli said as he gently picked up a small piece of steak and put it in his mouth, chewing it a little tastelessly.

Seeing this, the inexplicable meaning on Ye Xiaohan's face became more and more intense, she lowered her head and muttered in an imperceptible voice:

"It's okay~, just let me 'protect' you~, as long as it's something close to you - whether it's benign or malicious, all ....... It's good to 'kill' them all~! ”

"Huh~? Xiaohan, did you just say something? ”

Su Cheli was solving the remaining veal steak on the plate, and then he vaguely heard Ye Xiaohan's words, but Ye Xiaohan's own deliberate suppression and Su Cheli's own distraction caused him to not hear even a complete sentence clearly, so that after he asked, he felt that he should be an 'auditory hallucination'.

"No~, Che Li, you just had an 'auditory hallucination', right?"

Ye Xiaohan hurriedly denied it.

Seeing this, Su Cheli had to shrug his shoulders and said helplessly: "It seems that my recent psychological pressure has been a bit great, and I have actually had 'auditory hallucinations'~." ”

After speaking, Su Cheli lowered her head and continued to fight with dinner, and Ye Xiaohan also lowered her head and continued to act on the disc, but her gaze would secretly sweep towards Su Cheli as she raised her head from time to time.

Today is September 7th, and it is also the 6th day that Su Cheli and Ye Xiaohan have completed the 'entrance test' and returned to the college (the two returned to the college in the early morning of September 2), and tomorrow will also be the day when the first 'screening test' will start (September 8).

In the original 'weapon skill class', Su Cheli and Ye Xiaohan naturally chose the classification of 'cold weapons', and the two of them have been practicing the 'novice weapons' they chose in their respective missions for the past 6 days. However, the knowledge of the use of cold weapons, precautions when using them, and cold weapon combat skills currently taught by black and white bears is obviously still in a relatively 'basic' common stage-

This is probably also to take care of some 'zero' basic students, and it may be until everyone is familiar with the basic combat of cold weapons, and the black and white bears will be divided into categories to teach martial arts such as knives, swords, axes, hammers, sticks, and other individual weapon types.

Therefore, the teaching of the black and white bear in the past few days has not been of much help to Su Cheli, because Su Cheli himself had systematically learned the sword flow of the palace in the 'Jian Gong Pavilion' before entering the academy, and the use of the Tai Dao and even other cold weapons was stronger than the current other students.

Therefore, in most of Su Cheli's free time in the past few days, he was using the 'Fighting Gym' to conduct combat training with Ye Xiaohan - anyway, there would never be a dead person in the academy, and any injuries caused by the battle would be repaired by the academy instantly, which could be regarded as achieving the effect of 'making the best use of everything'. The meaning of the 'Fighting Gym' itself is that the academy provides students to compete with each other, so the 'mutual harm' that appears in the 'Fighting Gym' will not be counted as a violation of the academy's 'rules'.

Of course, the premise is that both students must have 'voluntarily' consented, otherwise it will still be dealt with in accordance with the 'rules' of the Academy.

In addition, Su Cheli found in the 'desperate' battle with Ye Xiaohan in the past few days that although Ye Xiaohan has not systematically learned the regular fighting method, it is somewhat similar to the 'wild road' style of fighting, but this fighting method is not the kind of novice gangster blind fighting. On the contrary, her fighting style is a bit similar to the 'wild routine' that has been honed after countless fights - simple and direct and straight to the point.

This made Su Cheli have a strong curiosity about Ye Xiaohan's past experience, but considering that Ye Xiaohan once laughed at herself as a 'murderer', she must have something unspeakable, so Su Cheli did not choose to ask Ye Xiaohan about his past experience - everyone has their own privacy, and only mutual respect can maintain this intimate teammate relationship.

However, although Ye Xiaohan has extremely rich fighting experience, and his moves are also 'wild routines' that are not limited to one board and one eye, Su Cheli is not worse than her - he is indeed not as rich as Ye Xiaohan in terms of fighting experience, but after all, he has learned the regular 'Jian Gong One Knife Stream', and his mastery of weapons is obviously stronger than Ye Xiaohan.

Moreover, Su Cheli's own talent in the sword is quite good, and he was once praised as a rare 'kendo genius' by Sagiro Mamiya, who was in charge of teaching. If it weren't for Su Cheli's studies and his inability to spare too much time on 'kendo', Sakiro Mamiya would even have the idea of cultivating him as the next generation of 'head of the palace'.

Therefore, Su Cheli and Ye Xiaohan have fought hard in the past few days of training, but although both sides are 'desperate' to fight each other, at most it is the extent of cutting each other, and the situation of really 'dead' people has not happened once - although even if the head is cut off in the academy, it can be instantly 'resurrected', but the severe pain at that moment is unavoidable.

Therefore, whenever Ye Xiaohan encounters a situation where she can make a 'dead hand', she often deliberately avoids the key point at the last moment, and Su Cheli is also in a similar situation - the two can't really play a 'dead hand' on each other.

Under such almost 'perfect' actual combat training conditions, coupled with the survival pressure brought by their own environment, Su Cheli and Ye Xiaohan's skills in using weapons can be said to have improved rapidly, far exceeding the situation when they were training outside.

In addition, after Ye Xiaohan finished the 'entrance test', the main physical attributes that she improved when absorbing silver-white crystals were not 'sensitive' but 'tendon strength' - after absorbing the crystals, she increased her tendon strength by a total of 3 points (absorbing crystals by 2 points, and stage advancement by 1 point) and reached the level of tendon strength of 18 points, and successfully surpassed Su Cheli who had 17 tendons.

So much so that when Su Cheli practiced with Ye Xiaohan for the first time in the 'Fighting Gym', he almost suffered a big loss because he was defenseless - the powerful strength and the axe, a weapon that focuses on 'gravity slashing', is simply a perfect match.

Finally, it is worth mentioning that Qu Wenjin did not choose 'cold weapons' in that day's 'weapon skill class', but still stubbornly chose 'hot weapons'.

To be honest, Su Cheli was not very optimistic about Qu Wenjin's choice, because the 'firearm' was the only weapon that the 'official' specified could not be brought back to the academy, and the 'novice weapons' issued during the 'entrance test' were all cold weapons. Therefore, Qu Wenjin chose the course of 'hot weapons' and gave up the practice of 'cold weapons', which is indeed a bit unwise.

Of course, everyone has their own choices and must be responsible for their own choices, and others have no right to give instructions. Similarly, if Qu Wenjin dies in the mission because of his own choice, it is also the future he chooses.

"Whew~"

Ye Xiaohan gently put down the clean plate, picked up the napkin and gently wiped her lips, and then she whispered to Su Cheli:

"I'm done eating, I'll go back to the room first~, Che Li will rest early for you, and finallyβ€”β€”"

Speaking of this, Ye Xiaohan seemed to hesitate slightly, a trace of hesitation appeared on his delicate face, and then Sakura's lips opened lightly, and he simply spit out two words in his mouth:

"Good night~"

After Ye Xiaohan finished speaking, she turned around and left, but she turned her back to Su Cheli, but made a silent 'mouth shape' in her mouth-

"Che Li, I hope that our mission will continue to be assigned together........ No, it must be~! ”

Su Cheli watched Ye Xiaohan's slender figure gradually leave, and muttered to himself:

"Are there 'teammates' who can rely on each other........."

It is true that Ye Xiaohan put aside the shortcomings of her mental "problem", and in all other aspects, she is undoubtedly the best candidate to be a 'teammate'. In addition, the two once lived and died together in the 'Mayan Land', so it can be said that they can trust each other with their lives, and they have long regarded each other as close teammates.

However, Ye Xiaohan seems to want to 'sublimate' the relationship of 'close teammates' again, which makes Su Cheli, who doesn't want to put his mind on his feelings for the time being, a little headache, but in the face of Ye Xiaohan, who once saved him with his life, Su Cheli really wants to say that there is no trace of feeling in his heart, which is also false - compared to the peaceful life in the real world, the current college life full of life and death pressure can obviously stimulate the deep feelings of human beings more, and at the same time, the way this feeling bursts out is much more intense.

This is true for both positive and negative feelings.

For example, that Xiong Jianhua, if he had failed to 'pick up' in the real world, he would definitely not be so 'messing around', but in the college environment where life and death go hand in hand, this negative emotion has obviously been amplified a lot, causing Xiong Jianhua to make a significantly different response to the usual when facing the failure of 'pick-up'.

This is the change of feelings in the environment of life and death - fast and violent.

Similarly, Su Che also has a certain affection for Ye Xiaohan, not to mention that she is not only impeccable in appearance, but also so 'active' that she is extremely lethal to any man.

However, Su Che has a 'goal' that must be completed for many years, and before this 'goal' is completed, he doesn't plan to distract his mind, but if he wants to refuse Ye Xiaohan, who has more than a trace of feeling, obviously he can't do it.

Therefore, Su Cheli can only continue to maintain the current somewhat delicate relationship between the two-

"For the time being, let's be a 'teammate' first.........."

..............

The next morning

Everyone gathered in the classrooms in the living area, quietly waiting for the arrival of the black and white bears.

When the hour hand pointed to 8 o'clock, the black and white bear 'jumped' onto the podium as always, facing the eyes of the students with various emotions such as nervousness, vigilance, hatred, and calmness, it was still unmoved, and continued its own 'painting style'β€”β€”

"Giggle~! Ladies and gentlemen, the 'screening test' is about to begin, and you must be very excited and excited, right? Hee-hee-hee~, it's useless to stare at me~? It's better to think about how to get through the task is the most important thing to wait for yourself~, giggle~! ”

At this moment, Su Cheli and Ye Xiaohan were standing next to each other in the classroom, while the other students were scattered, some were in pairs, and there were a total of nine students in the entire classroom, but they formed two or three different 'small groups'. There are small groups like Su and Ye who trust each other, and there are also small groups that harbor each other's evil intentions and are separated from each other, with different shapes and complicated situations.

It is worth mentioning that Su Cheli and Ye Xiaohan both wore the 'recommended clothing' of the Despair Academy - black and white uniforms, that is, the clothes that Ye Xiaohan changed on the day he returned to the academy, because it was mentioned in the 'help' of the bracelet that the special fabric used in the black and white uniforms is very suitable for strenuous exercise without breaking, so the two decided to enter in black and white uniforms to facilitate their own tasks.

In addition, the difference between men and women in this black and white uniform is that the men are white on the top and black on the bottom, and the women are black on the top and white on the bottom. Moreover, the other students seemed to have some resistance to the Despair Academy in their hearts, and they did not choose to wear black and white uniforms, so that Su Cheli and Ye Xiaohan were currently like a couple in couple clothes.........

"Alright, without further ado, the first time of your freshman reserve will beginβ€”"

As he spoke, the black and white bear took out a remote control with a red button from behind him again, and pressed it hard~!

"'Screening test'!"

The familiar white light lit up again under the students' feet, gradually obscuring everyone's vision.......

In front of the door of Kirika Barnyard Field

"This is the 'thing' that the woman left me? Can it help me find a senior? ”

Hinsaki Fukaha looked at the coffee-brown book in her hand with the Book of Voynich written on the front, and a look of doubt appeared on her face - she was also an outstanding student of archaeology, but she had never heard of the Book of Voynich.

Barnyard Kirika nodded lightly and said affirmatively: "Yes, it can help you find Su Cheli, as for your other doubts, I can't answer you for the time being, and this book will give you the answers to these questions in the future." ”

Shen Yu nodded understandingly, and then she sighed lightly, and said with some hesitation: "No matter what, anyway..... Thank..... Thank you for telling me all this, Fog ..... Aunt Kirika. ”

After speaking, Shen Yu hurriedly turned around and left, and said without looking back: "I'm going to look for Senior Che Li, goodbye~..."

Barnyard Kirika silently looked at the back of Shen Yu gradually leaving, and after a long time, she sighed slightly, turned around and opened the door of her dormitory-

Squeak~

When the dormitory door was opened, there was an empty room and a suitcase lying quietly in the center of the room!

Barnyard Kirika grabbed the suitcase, and at the same time took off the bowled straw hat hanging next to the door, lightly buckled it on his head, turned around and walked down the dormitory building with the sound of the wheel turning, only the faint sound gradually drifted in the empty corridor-

"The 'heartbreaker' who wants to pursue important people, you are not the only one who wants to pursue important people........

"I'm sure I'll find yourβ€”"

"True Winter ....."
