Chapter 9 Enrollment
Phoebe, who has always been known for her sniping ability, is 120,000 confident in her eyesight. The boy who had just passed by, though only a brief glimpse, believed she was not mistakenβthe man she had met in the MI conference room five days earlier, the man who wore a self-detonation collar and said nothing.
You can't see his appearance from behind, but you can see that he didn't wear the collar he used to wear. And...... What's going on with that pitch-black three-piece school uniform? Black double-breasted stand-up collar jacket with cuffs turned out with gold trim, that exquisite cut and craftsmanship...... It is clearly a school uniform style that only the key universities of the empire will customize.
Phoebe shook her head, the back of the person in front of her and the big boy in the cheap T-shirt and jeans I had seen in the MI before, couldn't match it anyway.
The teacher of the admissions office had just put away the student materials at hand, and when he raised his head and saw the shadow owl walking towards him, his eyes fell on his school uniform for a moment, and then he stood up and smiled with a smile on his face: "Lu Chao of Lingxiao Yuxiang University, right?" Your Vice President Xu called us yesterday and said that you would bring materials to go through the transfer procedures today. β
Phoebe stood at the door and heard it clearly, her jaw almost fell - who is Lu Chao!? Isn't that guy called Shadow Owl!? And isn't Lingxiao Yuxiang University the Empire's top mixed-student university with an annual acceptance rate of only 2 per 1,000? What's going on with Vice President Xu? Why is there a clear sense of concern in the words of the admissions officer? Could it be that stuffy gourd is actually a real person who doesn't show his face, he is very sloppy in disguise on weekdays, and his real identity is the dragon and phoenix among people!?
The boy turned his back to Phoebe, seemed to have taken something out of the pocket on the inside of his jacket and handed it to the teacher, and then said, "Hello Teacher Zhang." These are my letters of recommendation and transcripts. β
Sheet...... Mr. Zhang!? Phoebe was shocked again - there was more than one teacher in the admissions office, how did he find out who was on duty today? And look at the teacher's expression...... Exactly right!?
"Okay, I'll take a look......" Teacher Zhang took the information handed by the shadow owl, sat down and began to flip through it.
Phoebe recovered from the shock at this time, and hurriedly walked out of the office lightly, hiding outside the office door and continuing to eavesdrop.
"You've read your sophomore year before, right?" Teacher Zhang asked.
- What!? Isn't he 19 years old? Shouldn't a 19 year old be a freshman?
"Yes." The shadow owl's voice is neither humble nor arrogant.
"Transferring to a life sciences department? You studied geology before, right? β
- Department of Life Sciences? That's definitely right. It's not wrong to listen to the voice, this person is a shadow lord! No matter what the name is, he's the guy with the collar who showed up in MI before!
"Yes, but it's hard to find a job after graduating from sociology." The shadow lord replied fluently, "After graduating from the Department of Life Sciences, you can apply for positions related to agriculture and medicine, or you can go to research institutes as experimenters. And I'm not very good at physics, geology isn't really good for me......"
Phoebe almost vomited blood as she listened outside the doorβisn't that the same rhetoric I just had!? It's just that the word order has been changed, and all the content is copied and copied, right? Is this person too lazy to use his own brain!?
"Oh......" The teacher of the admissions office was obviously stuck here, and she may also wonder if she had the illusion that she had heard a passage twice. However, looking at the recommendation letter signed in black and white by the vice president of Lingxiao Yuxiang University, as well as the transfer transcript with almost full marks, Mr. Zhang still made a "rational" judgment - this student is undoubtedly a high-achieving student who Vice President Xu cares about.
is very different from the seriousness and meticulousness when reviewing Phoebe's materials, Mr. Zhang only hastily read the information taken out by the shadow owl, and put it in the file box on the side: "I have received your materials." You will be notified of the time of the entrance exam by phone tomorrow. The subjects are very basic, and they are all points for you, just remember not to be late. β
"Okay." The shadow owl replied calmly, and then suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, Mr. Zhang, a transfer student from the Department of Life Sciences...... Do you take the same entrance exam as me? β
"It should be ......," Teacher Zhang said after a little thought, "Transfer students from the same department should all take the exam at the same time and in the same examination room." What's wrong? β
"Nothing. I thought that I would be classmates in the future, and it would be good to get to know them in advance. After the test, go say hello or something. β
"Good! It's great that you can think so. Teacher Zhang nodded frequently, "The girl who came for the interview just before you also wants to transfer to the Department of Life Sciences, I think her grades are very average, and I don't know if she can keep up with the second-year courses." It would be great if you could help such a student academically. β
"Well, that's going to be fine."
Phoebe stood in the doorway of her office, and she could feel the world's malice towards her.
I was just about to think about it, what should I say when I see the Shadow Owl? I heard a voice say in a place close to me, "Huh? Why haven't you left yet? β
Phoebe raised her head, the guy in front of her who was wearing the uniform of Lingxiao Yuxiang University was not a shadow lord, who else could be! Immediately exclaimed: "Shadow Owl! You're embarrassed......"
Before she finished speaking, her arm was grabbed by the other party's outstretched right hand, and a huge force dragged her towards the door of the office building. The cold voice of the shadow owl sounded in her ears: "Let's talk about it when we go out." Also, call me Lu Chao at school. β
Don't look at Phoebe's slender figure and face looks like a high school student, but her real identity is a corporal serving in the Fourth Regiment of the Imperial Army, a real soldier. Although she was grabbed by the arm just now because she was negligent in her precautions, it was impossible for the soldier's self-esteem to make her really be dragged away honestly like a student. So a moment later, the Shadow Slash felt the man he was dragging resisting, and his other hand was clasped in a grappling position, trying to break his own hand.
Shadow Owl: "Huh? With a sigh of strength, he continued to walk towards the door.
- A monster who duel in 30 seconds and tied with Second Lieutenant Ito.
Phoebe's mind flashed through the only comment that the boxing champion Lei Yan had on the shadow owl that day in the military intelligence department. Because at this time, even if she tried her best, the hand that grabbed her was like an iron beating, and no matter how much she struggled, she did not let go for half a minute.
The shadow owl dragged Phoebe to the door of the office building, and found a place where no one was there before he took the initiative to let go: "I can't see that your little arms and legs are quite strong." β
Phoebe almost turned her back on her anger: "I'm a soldier ...... anyway"
"Oh, you're a soldier, huh?" Shadow Owl exclaimed, then looked Phoebe up and down, "Tsk...... It's not like that. β
"I ......," Phoebe choked up and rolled her eyes, and then continued, "Didn't you introduce yourself at MI that day?" I used to be a traitor like you, and now I'm an active army soldier serving in the Fourth Legion! My name is Phoebe! β
"Oh, Phoebe." Shadow Owl nodded perfunctorily, "Got it." β
In fact, on the day of MIA, the Shadow Owl only remembered Aaron. Carol's name. He didn't remember the names of the other original people present because they didn't talk much, or they didn't have any eye-catching performances.
"Why are you eavesdropping on my interview with the admissions officer!?" Phoebe unfolded the Queen's Settlement Mode, "Actually stealing my words!" β
"I didn't eavesdrop." "You were already inside when I came, and I waited at the door for a while, and I just happened to hear it. β
"Damn!" Phoebe was so angry that she burst into a foul mouth, "Then you give me an honest explanation, what do you mean by asking about the exam room!?" What do you say to get to know in advance...... Didn't you already know me! β
"You said this...... "The shadow owl touched his face a little embarrassed, "Actually, I haven't read a book, so it's definitely not good to take exams or anything on your own." I'll have to find someone reliable and copy her papersβlike yours. β
"...... you" The corners of Phoebe's mouth twitched slightly, and the expression on her face became very weird, "Aren't you a top student of Lingxiao Yuxiang University!" Even the teachers in the admissions office are respectful to you. β
"That's someone to help say hello."
"What kind of greeting, even the school uniform is ready for you!"
ββ¦β¦ In fact, it includes school uniforms, letters of recommendation, transcripts, and proof of enrollment. β
"What the hell are you coming from......
"Didn't you prepare the materials too?" The shadow owl pointed to the schoolbag on Phoebe's shoulder, "How can an active army soldier still hand over a certificate of enrollment in the School of Economics and Business?" β
"Ahh Then his face turned white, and he turned his head and said, "That's right! I'm an active duty army soldier, and I won't do any entrance exam papers! When you take the exam, you will be troubled by another - seek - high - ββ! β
"......" The shadow owl suddenly fell silent.
Phoebe interjected for a moment, not hearing the other man, and turned back a little confused.
"So you won't either?" Unexpectedly, the shadow owl really fell into thought, "What should I do then...... I also think you must have been sure to disguise yourself as a student. Do you have to find someone you don't know to copy his paper during the exam? β
Phoebe already had the feeling of being defeated: "You really are ...... The only solution is to copy ......"
"Huh?"
"After all, who are you? When he was in the military intelligence department, he was obviously wearing a self-detonation collar, a cheap T-shirt and jeans, no matter how he looked at it, he was a person at the bottom of society. But when you turn your face, you will change into the school uniform of a key university, and the collar will be taken off, and there will be a noble person behind you who can help you say hello to the position of vice president. Such a powerful guy can't even do a college entrance exam paper? Are you kidding me!? β
"Oh. You say ......," Shadowlord replied dismissively, "I'm an unidentified servant. When he was 14 years old, he was sold to Tsubasa and never studied. Because it is a broken code, you usually have to wear a collar. In the past two days, the master was not in Lingxiao City, so they temporarily took off my collar, so that it was easier to disguise themselves as students. β
"Oh?" When Phoebe heard this, she suddenly became interested: "So the student status of Yuxiang University was obtained by your master for you?" β
"Hmm."
"Oh my God...... Even in Lingxiao City, the capital of the empire, there are not many people who can reach this level of connections. Which nobleman is your master? β
After hearing this, the shadow owl's face suddenly turned cold: "I don't think our relationship is good enough to tell you her name." With that, he turned and was about to leave.
"Hey, where are you going?" Phoebe shouted at him from behind.
"Gone. Come back when it's time for the exam. The Shadow Owl waved his hand at her with his back to her, his back quite dashing.
"Youβ" Phoebe didn't have time to say anything, the back of the boy in the black school uniform was far away from her, and she disappeared in an instant.
As the admissions teacher said, the next day, both Shadow Owl and Phoebe received phone calls informing them of their entrance exams.
On the morning of April 26, the shadow owl changed out of the eye-catching school uniform of Lingxiao Yuxiang University, wore a white shirt and slacks, and walked into the examination room for the entrance exam.
He didn't come early, he didn't come late, there were already some students waiting in the classroom, but there were still fifteen or six minutes before the exam, and the students had plenty of time to prepare for the exam. The exam room is a small classroom, and about 20 people can be filled. Because he didn't know how many students would participate in this transfer student-only exam in the end, Shadow Owl found a place with a relatively dense number of students to sit down.
In front of him was a boy with glasses. Dressed neatly and with a gentle face. There is a high probability that such a person is a good student. Shadowlord sat behind him almost with his thighs hugged.
Shadow Owl's kinetic vision is excellent. This ability is reflected in the keen observation of battles, even in the face of a battle-hardened Dawnbreaker like Naoto Ito, he can see his every move one by one, and even the illusions hidden in the movements can be debunked, and then he can accurately take or avoid every blow of the opponent in a 30-second duel. And this transcendent eyesight is put in the exam, which is the invincible ability to cheat. The Shadow Owl has absolute confidence, as long as the boy sitting in front of him relaxes for a second, so that his eyes can make a momentary contact with the content of his test paper, he is sure that he can perfectly copy the other party's answer to his own test paper.
As the time approached the start of the exam, a girl's figure suddenly appeared at the door.
Phoebe was still wearing the same blue vest skirt and backpack as she was in the admissions office interview, and she was full of girlish vitality. She has short playful hair, a pair of jewel-like cat's eyes blinking from time to time, and her smart and refined temperament attracts most of the boys in the classroom to look up at her, and a few of the lewd-looking guys still have greedy faces.
However, Phoebe herself ignored the gaze that stared at her, and walked briskly through the student-packed aisle to the empty seat to the right of the Shadow Owl, took off her schoolbag and hung it on the back of her chair, and then sat down herself.
"Oh, pretty girl!" The boy sitting in front of the shadow owl couldn't help but peek over this side and let out a barely audible snort.
Phoebe seemed to hear it, and raised her eyes to look at him, but soon her eyes moved to the face of the shadow lord, and she greeted familiarly: "Morning, Lu Chao!" β
At this moment, half of the boys in the class turned their eyes on the shadow owl like sharp arrows. The latter didn't expect Phoebe to take the initiative to talk to him, so he was unprepared for a moment and reacted a little stiffly: "Oh...... Hello. β
"Don't you remember me?" Phoebe was a little teasing, "I'm Phoebe who lives next door to your house!" β
"......" Shadow Owl looked confused - what next door!?
"Alas...... You really don't remember me. Phoebe looked sad and played with her forehead in a form of grievance, "I just wanted to ask if you can go home together after the exam......
If the gaze can cause damage, the shadow owl is afraid that he has been poked into a sieve by the jealous gaze around him.
Just when the shadow owl felt 120,000 embarrassed and didn't know whether to pay attention to Phoebe, the invigilator entered at the right time to save him.
After some uninspired explanations of the exam, the test papers were passed from the front row to the back row.
Entrance exams have begun.
