Chapter 484 Lord Dean
The people who were abducted into the villa's living quarters found the right place to settle down, and it was more like a two-story bungalow than a dormitory for the professor's family. With its own garden area and a tall chimney at the top of the roof, such a suitable environment can't help but make everyone show a hillbilly-like face.
Standing at the intersection, the dark blue summoned its own minions, just like the method of Master Wayne*, the minions of magic did not have a clear face, but lined up in the garden in the uniform of a butler, as if they would fight for themselves at the slightest order. Professor Paladin gave up the detailed explanation: "In short, it is also necessary to help Mr. Bai Cixi take care of your family, these domestic servants will now be supporting this house belongs to you and your family." Oh, by the way, the dean is very interested in who your family members are, and I need to give you a debrief before you move in. ”
Dark Blue said as she avoided the approaching servants and asked them to drag their luggage inside the door of the house, although it was not comparable to the Wayne family, but the standard of one bedroom per person was enough for the current number of people. Bai Cixi, who was secretly satisfied, looked at Paladin squarely, and then stretched out his hand and roughly pointed at the people around him, telling Paladin that everyone was his brother and sister. The number of people was counted one by one, but when Mo Le was finally introduced, it happened that the title of sister and sister had been used too many times, so Bai Cixi felt that he couldn't get by, so he subconsciously reached out to stop Mo Le's waist. I saw him say gently: "It's the lover here"
Although the affectionate style seemed quite contrived, and although Mo Le was unprepared for a hint of blush, Paladin still had that face, undoubted but uninterested. After explaining this, Bai Cixi and the others entered the house and found that it was clean and tidy, presumably the servants would specialize in managing the sanitation and choose their own bedrooms. Here Paladin had been standing at the door, and he did not choose to intervene in the supposedly "family". There is no rush to leave.
Seeing this scene, Bai Cixi learned that there were still some things here, so he came over and inquired. Paladin still had that look, and there was no trace of urgency in his handsome but gloomy expression. He said: "Mr. Bai, before becoming a professor, I hope you can go with me to meet the dean, that is, the man who stands at the top of the college, by the way, call the two gentlemen who work part-time, and the dean is waiting." ”
Paladin, who turned to leave, had a strong sense of confidence, and he didn't seem to care that the dean was waiting for everyone like this, what kind of identity this person had to be, so that he would not take the dean who was waiting alone as a thing. Bai Cixi didn't think much about it, and called Yoon and Lu Xiyuan, the two most powerful assistants at the moment, to chase them out. Before leaving, he told Fu Linmei to be in charge of housework, and he didn't need to wait for Bai Cixi and the others to dine again, after all, it was the habit of Wayne Mansion to wait for everyone to dine together.
The sun deflected away from the middle and cast on the streets, giving the whole city a lazy afternoon. Whether it's a good blacksmith or a hot restaurant, it's all going on with their own insistence. In the afternoon, they didn't seem to be happy to let the golden hour pass like this, hoping to stop all the guests like crazy. Seeing such a street, Bai Cixi finally remembered that he hadn't eaten after experiencing a lot of troubles, and he was in a daze in the house to explain the priority of Fu Linmei's dinner, but he didn't remember that it was noon outside the house, and time was no longer a mess to play with the young man's heart.
"You probably won't have the chance to eat Chinese food, but it's hard to say if the dean's side will stay to entertain you." Paladin walked ahead so guessed. But in fact, Bai Cixi didn't see from that person's face that he really thought that the dean would suddenly add food to entertain everyone. Of course, this question is actually not important, as long as it does not drag on for a long time, as long as Bai Cixi can complete all the formalities in one afternoon, and rush back to the current residence, there will definitely be a magical servant to cook.
They followed Palatine towards the central castle, which was more than just the teaching and research center of the Academy. At the same time, it also shoulders the function of the political center, and since the Supreme Council is also in it, the walls of the castle, including the buildings adjacent to the castle, have become more meticulous, and illegal or dangerous buildings are definitely not allowed to appear within a certain range.
The walls of the castle were not taller than the gates, but they were much stronger. The castle itself is made of black stone and makes it look more fleshed out, but there is a glitter in a dark corner of the wall, which makes it impossible to show it in the opaque area of the corner. Entering the main entrance of the castle, everyone first crossed the clattering wooden drawbridge, although there were no crocodiles in the moat, but no one dared to imagine the consequences of storming the castle and falling into the river.
The castle gate is pitch black, similar in color to the gate of Wayne's house, although the volume and actual carving are a little different. When the door opened, the light blocked by the wall was returned to Bai Cixi for the second time, which made the young man subconsciously squint his eyes, and he couldn't stand the tall wall that passed through Guò twice a day.
If the interior of the city is prosperous and gorgeous, then the interior of the castle is a chic Yaxing, with a noble atmosphere, a peaceful environment, and a magical atmosphere that completely envelops Bai Cixi itself. He followed Paladin into the white stone paving of the academy, and saw the signs, the walls, and even the creeper, which seemed to be completely different.
He couldn't say it, but Bai Cixi could feel that the man in front of him exuded a hint of arrogance, which was more direct than before, because the subtlety in this and the operation of the magic spirit child opened Bai Cixi's eyes. A few students on the side of the road moved in groups, they seemed to be discussing something, but it was too far away; On the other side, there seemed to be a professor unleashing magic in the opening, and there were students from the outdoor classroom around him, and people on the nearby road would greet Paladin when they approached him, and this side slowly shuttled through the crowd, and even from the mage's cuffs that passed by for a moment, he could smell the breath of magic.
"Isn't it amazing?" Paladin asked.
"Amazing, I've studied magic, but I didn't know that after magic was integrated into daily life, it could have so many feelings, like a hungry person falling into a big loaf of bread." Bai Cixi waved his hands happily, as he said, the atmosphere here was very suitable for him, and the atmosphere that could not be described in words was also another kind of power on Cheng Dù.
As they said this, they had long since parted from the stone road outside, and were led to a long staircase from a fork in the road, and slowly walked along the elegant guardrail to the third-floor platform, and then entered a small door in the castle building. Even Bai Cixi couldn't adapt to the arrangement itself and became lost.
The next step was to go up the stairs, but I didn't see anyone along the way, and it seemed that this was not the teaching area of the college, so there were few people hanging out. When led to an unknown location, Bai Cixi tried to check the height of the floor through the window, but it was roughly estimated that everyone had climbed at least twenty floors or higher, and surprisingly, this height was still not the highest as far as the eye could see.
After another period of unanticipated progress, Paladin finally made his way to the end of the hallway, and then stopped, although he could climb any further, but it was clear that the position of the dean was at this level.
Knocking on the door, politely waiting for a reply, but even Paladin pulled his long hair anxiously, he didn't seem to make it clear to the dean, and Paladin himself didn't know when the dean would answer the door anyway.
Suddenly, the door opened to the inside, and the wooden door with a two-way hole was very similar to the door panel of the student council office of Qiying High School, I don't know if it was a coincidence. Relying on the light inside, everyone looked inside and saw the old man sitting behind the large desk, just like seeing most of the agency stewards, the stewards of the other world have always been elderly, and the dean they have never met is an old man, so this reassures Bai Cixi, at least the other party is not a weirdo.
In Bai Cixi's many years of socializing, he has seen the more open and humorous commander-in-chief of the army, the resolute and strict masked commander-in-chief, and indirectly seen the * master Aleclet lamp, and also seen the dark mage of Harroda in the ancient era from the portrait, although these old men have quirks, but they are not as serious as this dean, at least the other party has a decent order to open the door when he sits there. By the way, the dean's guard came to open the door in person, it was an uncle in his thirties or even forty, but he had dark skin, a burly figure and crisp short hair, and because of this, this strict and serious guard did not look old.
"Ah, Paladin?" The elder dean raised his head and looked out of the door, the nose-clipping glasses were turned down by it at the moment, he was trying to make the vision pass from above the lenses to see people, but Bai Cixi felt that the other party was very looking forward to it, at least without the slightest disdain, and at this moment, the young man had a trace of respect for this dean. "People are here so soon? Takeaway at Seongdong Steakhouse? ”
The old man's voice was serious, and at the same time he didn't forget to look at Bai Cixi's hands, Bai Cixi's brain was blank at this moment, and then his whole person became bad, although he was not despised, but he seemed to be forgotten.
"My lord, please remember it for a long time, this is a senior cadre sent by Wayne's * division." The guard beside him couldn't help it for a long time, and immediately began to correct the object of his protection, although the atmosphere in this state was a little awkward, but Bai Cixi was not so nervous because of this.
"Ah, the old man is really forgetful. It's called Mr. Bai Cixi, you all come here, come and sit, let's talk in detail. The old man waved his hand as if an employer was recruiting, beckoning young people to come in.
Bai Cixi can only walk forward seriously with Xiao here, but he is complaining in his heart, isn't this able to remember my name?
