Chapter 7: The Knot
At 11 o'clock in the evening, the high-speed train was filled with an indescribable coldness.
Qin Ming put the phone back in his pocket, and after straightening up slightly, he wanted to say something to Yi Shaodong beside him, but found that the product was sleeping soundly with his mouth open.
He didn't call Yi Shaodong, but retracted his gaze and looked out the window.
This month's monthly exam notice was sent to their microbrain in the form of an email earlier today.
The location of the examination room is in Building 1 of the Lakeside Community in Tenghai City.
The duration of the exam is 6 days.
As for the reward for passing the monthly exam, it is 5 points.
Not only he and Yi Shaodong participated, but Xue Kai and Fu Guangliang were also among them, but the two of them were not in the same carriage.
But strictly speaking, there really isn't much need to discuss it until there is formal contact with the people involved in the incident.
He had just searched the Internet with his mobile phone, but he didn't find anything.
Obviously, even if someone is killed, it is far from the point of making a fuss.
When it was almost 1 o'clock in the morning, Qin Ming and Yi Shaodong came out of the station.
Originally, according to Qin Ming's plan, he first found a hotel near the examination room to live and rest, and when he got up early tomorrow morning, he immediately entered the investigation of the incident.
But Xue Kai and Fu Guangliang insisted that they find a place to eat and then go back.
Seeing that the two of them insisted, Yi Shaodong was also noisy and hungry, although Qin Ming didn't want to go in his heart, he didn't say much, but just proposed to open the hotel first, and then go to eat.
After they opened a hotel near the examination room, they did not go far, but found a barbecue restaurant nearby.
Qin Ming thought that they were just going to eat something, but as soon as they sat down, Xue Kai asked the waiter to serve a case of beer, putting on a posture of several people wanting to get drunk.
"Just eat something, let's drink or forget it, after all, the monthly exam will officially start tomorrow, and we have to have a sober state to face it."
Qin Ming shook his head, and did not take the wine handed by Xue Kai, seeing this, Xue Kai smiled a little embarrassedly, and then explained:
"The exam must be important, none of us are stupid, we must not drink unscrupulously, everyone can drink a little, otherwise it is not interesting to eat."
As soon as Xue Kai finished speaking, Fu Guangliang picked up the conversation again and said to Qin Ming:
"Lao Xue and I have actually wanted to find an opportunity for a long time, let's get together and chat.
After all, we were selected by the academy, and we can be regarded as people with the same fate, and we can become classmates, which is really a great fate.
I called you two days ago, you all have something to do, so you didn't get a chance, today is here for a small gathering, not for anything else is to cheer for tomorrow's exam, I hope we can survive this exam, no one "fails".
When the exam is over, we will find another place and have a good drink. ”
Fu Guangliang and Xue Kai asked Qin Ming and Yi Shaodong to go out for dinner, and it was indeed not a day or two.
Since the two of them passed the class task, Fu Guangliang and Xue Kai have been calling them out.
At first, they didn't come out because they had just returned from solving the incident, and they were indeed a little physically and mentally exhausted, plus Qin Ming was plagued by nightmares all day long, so he was somewhat in no mood to go out. When he recovered, something happened to his house again, so the matter dragged on until now.
Although Fu Guangliang said it tactfully, he was undoubtedly picking on this matter.
If it were someone else, he would definitely be embarrassed and sorry to hear the other party say this, but Qin Ming didn't feel anything in his heart, and he didn't think that he had anything to do if he didn't agree to go to dinner with Fu Guangliang and Xue Kai before.
After all, this is something you want me to do, not to mention that there is no emotional basis between them, just like rejecting a stranger on the street who wants to invite you to dinner, if you feel sorry in your heart, it will be hell.
But he and Yi Shaodong didn't mind this matter, but from Fu Guangliang's words, it was obvious that the two of them were very concerned about this matter, and they felt that the two of them didn't give face.
I looked for them again and again, and they didn't come out.
But in that case, why do they have to look for it over and over again?
Qin Ming actually knew very well in his heart that the little Jiujiu that these two people were fighting was nothing more than that he and Yi Shaodong were useful for the two of them to complete the monthly exam.
If, as they say, they were just looking for them to become classmates, then why not ask them out before they go on class assignments?
Because at that time, I asked them out and contacted them about the so-called classmates' feelings, classmates' fate, and it was not too valuable. After all, no one knows if the two of them will completely disappear into the class task like those who died in the monthly exam.
"Then just have one drink, and we'll talk about the rest when we pass the exam."
Qin Ming took the wine and symbolically poured himself a small glass, Fu Guangliang was very unhappy with Qin Ming's perfunctory, he subconsciously glanced at Xue Kai, Xue Kai's expression was also very unnatural, obviously felt that Qin Ming was a little ignorant.
When it comes to this, he doesn't even give them face.
But they didn't dare to show it too obviously, because as Qin Ming guessed, the reason why they strongly proposed to come here to eat and drink some wine was not because they were really willing to drink, but because they wanted to get closer to Qin Ming and Yi Shaodong in this way.
I hope that the two of them can take them as much as possible in the monthly exam.
Yi Shaodong looked lively, eating edamame peanuts next to him, smiling and not saying a word.
The atmosphere at the table was a little awkward, and Xue Kai brought up a glass of wine at this time, trying to alleviate this embarrassment.
But Qin Ming didn't raise his glass, but said to Xue Kai and Fu Guangliang:
"I feel like there are some things that we need to settle down before the exam starts before we drink this glass."
"What are you sure about?" Xue Kai and Fu Guangliang looked at Qin Ming, not knowing what Qin Ming was referring to.
"Something about the use of spells."
"Spell usage?"
"Yes. Because in the monthly exam, we will need to use spells, or to verify, or to deal with sneaky.
But the monthly exam is not for one person, so this kind of consumption of spells cannot be made by one person or two people.
At the very least, it should be average.
For example, after the monthly exam is completed, we need to calculate the consumption of the spell and then average it to everyone's head.
Those who consume more will be replenished by others, and those who consume less will be replenished by others.
To avoid the problem, after an exam, some people consume a lot of spells, while others consume very little. ”
