Chapter 5 Opening Ceremony
What caught his eye was a piece of sprawling geraniums that were intertwined and flourishing, the flowers were dotted, gorgeous and abnormal, and dark, Du Shu felt a kind of traction that hit his heart, and the source turned out to be this piece of geranium bushes.

Because just when she got out of the car, she received a wonderful sense.
It was a strange feeling that Du Shu approached, and the leaves of the geraniums were swaying, as if in a warm response.
The hand was naturally stretched out, and Du Shu didn't realize that she was entering a wonderful realm at this moment, and the entire spiritual sea of her brain emitted a faint glimmer of light, which produced a strange co-connection with the nerve endings of the geranium in front of her.
Just as his hand was about to touch the blade, a roar interrupted Du Shu's movements.
Just as the nerve tentacles were completely severed, a trace of pain flashed in Du Shu's head, and the faint light dissipated in an instant, and the flowers in front of him became almost ordinary geraniums.
"Shu, why are you here?"
Wen Zhenyue strode over, "The opening ceremony is about to start, didn't I tell you to wait for me at the gate after getting off the bus, you see, what time is it, you won't tell me to stand here for more than an hour and look at these flowers in a daze, right?" ā
It's been more than an hour, Du Shu's eyes are a little confused, she has only been here for a few minutes.
"Well, forget it," Mazuki sighed, "It's good that the opening ceremony is still five minutes away, and it's still too late." ā
"Xiaozhi, help me connect to the minister!" Matsuki said to the communicator on her wrist.
"Okay, Matsuki," the miniature communicator suddenly sounded the warm voice of a cute teenager with a very human nature.
Ding, soon, after a flash of blue light, a virtual blue screen flashed, revealing the face of a handsome and steady young man.
"Matsuki, what's wrong?"
"Minister, my sister is late, and the opening ceremony is estimated to be in time, can you send a special car from the student union to come first."
"Matsuki's sister, it's not impossible to send a car, but you have to be careful of the school guards, they are staring at our mistakes every day!"
"An-la-a-la, when did I lose my hand!" Zhenyue waved her hand magnificently, "Minister, hurry up and send a car, or it's really too late." ā
"This must be in time, now Matsuki will look at your back!" The minister on the virtual crystal screen smiled.
"Huh?"
Mazuki turned around, and a flying car engraved with the unique emblem of the student council came from the sky, and then stopped steadily in front of them.
"When did you get here?" Matsuki's eyes widened in surprise.
The minister's eyes crooked, "I forgot to tell you, I happen to have some foresight!" ā
"Scared, I won't tell you," Matsuki rolled her eyes and turned off the communicator speechlessly.
The auditorium for new students is located on the west side of the college. The speeding car was driving at high speed, and finally arrived a minute before the ceremony began.
"Whew, I'm glad I didn't touch those goddamn wooden faces!" Mazuki patted her chest without danger, and praised the brown-haired cute boy in the driver's seat: "It's worthy of the exclusive driver of our student union, Xiaolu, good job!" ā
The young man named Xiaolu shook his head embarrassedly, "Sister Zhenyue, time is running out, you guys go quickly." ā
didn't waste time, Zhenyue directly took Du Shu into the auditorium, because Du Shu hadn't changed into a freshman uniform, so Zhenyue took her to sit in the back row and mingled in the crowd watching the ceremony.
This caused the lights in the hall to dim suddenly, and then under a burst of spotlight, a middle-aged man wearing a plain robe Zheng Ran walked up to the stage.
"That's Mr. Macbeth, the House Councilor!" Matsuki introduced.
Director Macbeth, who was standing on the stage, had a grim face.
"Students, welcome to Olijiu, although today is your first day in Olijiu, no matter how you feel now, but to spend the four years of Olijiu, it is very necessary to study your courses seriously and steadily."
"In Olijiu, no one will welcome the weak, only by constantly moving forward, can we have the opportunity to stand at the top of the Aulijiu Pillar of Honor, listen to Mr. Charlemagne's teachings, and bask in the glory of the oracle. Okay, without further ado, now I would like to invite Mr. Ha Jin, the dean of Olijiu Academy, to give a lecture to the new students.
Bang Bang Bang! With a round of applause.
With a silver beard and curly hair, and dressed in a formal and complicated dress, Principal Hakin walked up to the stage with a very relaxed pace, with a ruddy face and a very spirited personality, who was known for his philosopher-like mind.
Principal Ha Jin, who has made an inspirational statement for the opening ceremony of more than 14 new students, is obviously very kind and kind. He smiled and waved his hand, calming the enthusiasm of the freshmen.
"Haha, seeing such lovely you, I can't believe that my old man Hajin is a year older, but time is so cruel, and now I am sure that I actually saw you standing at the bottom of the pillar of honor four years later, and I personally engraved your names on it one by one, at that time, you represent not only yourself, you also carry the glory of Olijiu's history, with its glory flying over the entire Mockland, and even beyond the entire galaxy."
"It must be a sacred moment, and on the first day you enter Olijiu, you will carry its honor and shame on your shoulders, and you will move forward step by step, or one day in the future, Olijiu will carry forward the next step of your glory."
When I was young, I had a dream in which I was still a child, and the goddess of wisdom asked me, if I told you now that your future would be nothing, and that you would be extremely depressed and humble, would you still try now, even if everything was in vain and everything was useless, would you continue to persevere, because today I tell you your future, and if you still resist so strongly, then the price you will pay is that your relatives will go because of you, Your closest friends will stay away from you one by one, the truth will never favor you, even strangers, they will never understand you, they will only blindly slander you and misunderstand you, so at the cost of this, are you willing to self-exile and let fate arrange it? ā
"That's a nerve-wracking choice!" Principal Hajin stroked his hair and smiled wittily. And as he moved, the freshmen below looked at him without blinking, hoping to hear the dean's final answer.
"Hehe," Dean Hajin smiled slightly, and continued, "That question has bothered me for a whole few days, and I have been desperately thinking about comparisons for the past few days, I need to measure the importance of something to me, I don't want to lose my relatives and friends, I don't want to be separated from the crowd to pursue the truth of my own loneliness, but then my future will be bleak, I will lose the right to work hard before I grow up, when I lost sleep for a few days my mother asked me strangely the reason, I had no choice but to tell my mother the promise of the goddess of wisdom honestly, and my mother smiled when she heard this, and she did not refute me, nor did she say anything more, but just gave me a seed to plant in what she thought was the most suitable place. ā
"I did it without any doubt, and on the first day I planted it well and marked it in the fertile fields of the country lords, which were the places where the harvests were the most abundant in previous years. But for a day or two, it still did not grow seedlings, and until ten days later, it did not move at all. So I dug it up, planted it in a pot with the most conspicuous flower that grows, and carefully watered and fertilized it all day long.
But many days have passed, and the seedlings of the flowers in the pot have sprouted, but the seed still does not move, and the last time I am really impatient, I am angry, the problem of the goddess of wisdom still haunts me, and I have wasted so many days in vain trying to make a useless seed germinate, maybe my mother gave me this seed not to help me at all, but to laugh at me, and I was very angry.
Perhaps the prophet of the goddess of wisdom is right, my relatives do not love me at all, and I should choose the path that I have always believed in my heart, even if it is full of thorns, I can walk through it without mercy. ā
"So I told my mother my choice with great ease, and tonight I will swear to the goddess of wisdom that I will never go against my choice."
After listening to my words, my mother was not angry as she imagined, but shook her head helplessly, dug the seed out of the pot, and put it in a huge cup of water, it would not die, Mother said gently.
No matter where it is placed, it will not live according to the wishes of others, and what kind of future do you believe it has, and it is not fragile and needs to be controlled by the hand of God before you really understand what it depends on.
In the same way, you can't give up the barrier you rely on before you have even worked hard to plan for your future, have you ever really understood her, or is everything just a fantasy in your heart, you vent, you are dissatisfied, just to get an excuse to give up and avoid yourself.
Look, Mother pointed to the glass of water and said, you don't really understand it, it has always lived in the water, and you have forgotten that no matter what your future will be, the first and most important thing is not to escape, no one can choose your future for you, as long as you have always believed in it, then all obstacles are not obstacles after all. You tell me? ā
"My mother looked at me with a smile, and I stared at the seed that I had been unable to germinate with so much effort to sprout and blossom in the water."
"When I understood everything, the goddess of wisdom did not come to my dreams that night, and I grew up happily and always believed in it."
"So, children, remember, your future is not in anyone's hands, whether you are a nobleman or a commoner now, in Olijiu, time will tell, and your future should be proved by yourselves, don't make excuses for yourself, as Macbeth said, Olijiu will never welcome cowards."
After Dean Ha Jin finished speaking, the whole auditorium immediately burst into fierce applause, and there are no words more inspiring than Dean Ha Jin's story.
After the applause stopped, Dean Ha Jin continued happily: "I have always remembered my mother's words until now, although I have encountered countless obstacles, I can always step over without fear and face it with a smile, but now I have to admit that I am old.
As I said earlier, the glory of Olijiu still needs to be carried forward by you, and when I first ascended to the position of Dean of Olijiu, I made a vow to carry Olijiu forever, and now, children, my nemesis, Old Man Cochinson of Mosoni Law School, has always been very suspicious of us Olijiu, although he has to admit the fact that Viscount Sisoka has transferred to Olijiu.
But I believe that it will not be easy to convince him of the strength of our Oliver Jiu. But for more than ten years, I have been helpless about it, so in order to make Old Man Ke Bingsen more deeply aware of this, then work hard for the honor of Oliver in the next time!
And hereby I declare, whether it is a nobleman or a commoner, if your performance can make the old man Ke Bingsen's face turn blue, then there is no doubt that you are a new hero in the history of Oliver Honor.
"Haha! Children, work hard, fight for honor, you represent not only Olijiu, but also your own glory! ā
Loud applause accompanied by countless screams, President Ha Jin's blatant provocation to Mosoni Law School made the freshmen present have great courage and confidence, and his speech made the freshmen's honor and sense of belonging extremely high.
"Sure enough, it's the witty and humorous Principal Hajin," Zhenyue said with great emotion, "His speech is still so exciting and interesting, and every year he is so confident that Oliver Jiu's declaration is publicized, I think it's strange that Dean Kebingsen of Mo Sonifa is not mad, hehe!" ā
"You have a point!"
A boy next to Matsuki laughed, "But I heard that Dean Ke Bingsen is recognized as a decent and elegant gentleman in the upper class, and he should only laugh at this, but if you want to talk about the repeated malicious provocations of our dean, it is also hyped as a tradition of the annual freshman speech."
Hehe, it's funny to think about, but I'm not at all sad about Mosonif's remark that it was the academy where the rogue mustangs gathered to attack us, after all, the reason why Viscount Sisoka chose Olijiu will always make them unable to open their faces! ā
"Well, that's what I'm saying, in addition to Viscount Siso, this year's Olijiu has a lot of new late-stage juniors, not to mention our president, think about it, the glory of Mosonifa will soon pass."
"Well, it sounds exciting." The boy agreed.
After Dean Ha Jin stepped down, Mo Suo, an aristocratic boy who delivered a speech on behalf of the freshmen, also took the stage.
This is a delicate teenager with black hair and black eyes in a silver-gray freshman uniform.
His walking movements are very standard, his facial expressions are just right, and his every move reveals a good etiquette, and at first glance he is a young master with excellent upbringing from a noble family.
"Hello everyone!"
His voice was steady, and a little green. However, the tone is old-fashioned, and the whole person also looks cold and charming.
There are many girls in the audience who support him, and they are already the most popular figures on campus when they are affiliated to the primary department of Olijiu, so many of the freshmen at the same level are familiar with him, and he is understandable as a representative of the freshmen.
"Tsk, it's really a pure noble young master!" There are many seniors around Zhenyue who praise them, but there are also arrogant seniors who disdain them.
"That's it," the tall boy sitting next to Du Shu said disdainfully, "The origin of the nobleman is unequal, and there is his natural talent, but we civilians, none of us civilians have not come here by their own efforts, compared to these big young masters who have come all the way comfortably, if they are placed on the same level, they will only be worthless and incapable." ā
"Oh, you say this as if it proves how hard you work and how powerful, haha, but what you say is impossible to achieve, the nobility has always been noble and extraordinarily gifted, from birth, this honor will accompany him for life, no matter what, the nobleman will always be the noble, the commoner will always be the commoner, and the commoner will never be above the nobleman."
"Haha, Han Xian, I really didn't expect you to be so servile, you yourself are a commoner, but you are so spineless, you will only slap those nobles, and look down on your partners who belong to the same family, hehe, what benefits did the nobles give you, can make you defend them so much, and give birth to such a triumphant mentality and virtual pride."
"You,,,,,,,ć Lin Tang, why do you say that about me. The girl named Han Xian suddenly became angry, lowered her voice and warned viciously, "You wait, I will definitely tell Young Master Zhao the original number of your words, and see if he doesn't come to teach you a lesson." ā
"Hmph."
After Han Xian said this, he got up and left, and when he left, he could still hear her low scolding.
Many students around me noticed it and secretly talked to each other. Matsuki also took Radushu's hand to reassure her.
But for the whispers around him, Lin Tang didn't lose his temper anymore, but looked at the rostrum quietly. The cold and hard expression softened a lot, and he didn't seem to be an impulsive person, it was estimated that his actions just now should have a lot of grievances with the girl named Han Xian, which caused him to explode.
This is probably the prejudice of the nobles, Zhenyue sighed a little, "So Ah Shu should stay away from those nobles in the future, otherwise it will be bad if you accidentally provoke them." ā
As soon as the opening ceremony ended, Zhenyue took Du Shu to the freshman dormitory.
The building of Olijiu College is simple and not very modern, and it looks like it has a strong sense of historical presence on the outside, but inside it is a variety of intelligent equipment and automation services are very thoughtful.
Du Shu's dormitory is a suite, small but well-equipped.
Wen Zhenyue arranged everything for Du Shu with her hands and feet, in addition to sorting out her luggage by category, she also recruited several intelligent robots to decorate her new home, striving to be warm and comfortable.
