Chapter 93: Our Principles
Watching Andrew leave in a gloomy manner, Shen Xiaohe's little face was a little lonely, and she felt that her chocolate was gone.
"Don't worry, he'll be back, with chocolate. Shen Chai comforted Shen Xiaohe.
Shen Xiaohe's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Really?"
"Of course it's true, not only him, but there will be more people who will bring chocolates to Xiao Hey. Shen Chai said with great certainty.
Sure enough, before the door was closed, another figure appeared at the door.
The man was dark and thin, and even had a vegetable face, which was caused by long-term malnutrition, but his blue eyes were bright, and his school uniform was neat, although it had been washed a little white.
The Gruss Academy of Magic only distributes one set of school uniforms a semester, but one set of school uniforms is not enough to wear, at least another set must be used for washing, but the academy only distributes one set, and if you want more, you have to pay for it yourself.
A set of school uniforms costs five silver coins, which can already catch up with two months' rations for a family of three, and the children of ordinary people are reluctant to buy it. Therefore, they usually only have one school uniform, and once the school uniform is dirty, they can only use the evening time to wash the school uniform and then put it back on the next morning.
When it was cloudy, the school uniforms had not completely dried at night, so they put them on themselves so wetly, and they were still comforting themselves: This is also quite cool!
Obviously, the student in front of him is a civilian child with only one set of school uniforms.
Before Shen Chai could speak, Shen Xiaohei jumped out: "You are so polite, come here, and bring some chocolates to Xiaohe!"
The man was stunned when he heard this, his face turned red, and the words that had just come to his mouth choked into his stomach. He thought that he really shouldn't have come, Shen Chai was a person who could call Dean Dickens a brother, with an identity like himself......
The man was almost about to turn away the next moment.
"Don't you mind," Shen Chai immediately grabbed his arm and greeted him warmly, "The kid is joking with you!"
The frozen expression on the man's face gradually relieved when he heard this, and he showed a shy smile towards Shen Chai: "I'm here...... Come and ask Brother Shen for magic. ”
Shen Chai let the man into the house and chatted with him.
It turned out that this person's name was Cupia, a student of the third class of magic, and he was indeed a commoner's child, but he had a lot of talent for earth-based magic, and he was also very kind.
"I heard that John, the elder of your third class, entered the academy at the age of sixteen, and now he is forty-six years old, why has he repeated the grade for a full thirty years?" Shen Chai asked Cupia curiously.
Shen Chai believed that no matter how bad a person's cultivation talent was, no matter how hard he didn't cultivate, he wouldn't be able to enter the inner courtyard for a full thirty years, and even a pig who could cultivate would have already broken through to an intermediate magician.
"Alas, it's a pity to say this, I'm afraid that Old John's squad leader won't be able to break through the junior and advanced level in this life!" Chubia said with a frown, "Even Dean Dickens can't do anything about this matter. ”
"Oh, what's going on?" Shen Chai knew as soon as he heard it, there was definitely a story here!
Cupia muttered, "When John Sr. was sixteen years old, that is, his first year at the Gruss School of Magic. One night, two suspicious black-robed people sneaked into the academy, these two black-robed people seemed to be looking for something in the academy, and happened to be hit by the old John who got up at night to go to the toilet, so he immediately shouted for help, and the teacher of the discipline department who patrolled the night heard the sound and rushed to beat the two black-robed people away, but the old John was also seriously injured,
"After Dean Dickens's treatment, although Old John's life was saved, his magic bloodline was severely damaged, and he couldn't cultivate normally in this life. ”
"Oh, I see!"
Shen Chai was very moved when he heard this, and originally thought it would be a story, but it turned out to be an accident.
In this way, Old John did make meritorious contributions to the college, he was not repeated, but enjoyed the compensation and benefits given by the college, just like the wounded soldiers, the state will give a generous living guarantee.
"Yes, so Old John is not a laughing stock who has been repeating grades for thirty years, but a hero who has dedicated his future as a magician to the academy!" said Cupia with infinite emotion.
"Then why didn't he explain it to everyone, now the whole academy thinks that he is the king of repetition. Shen Chai asked puzzledly.
Cupia sighed, and a look of admiration appeared on his face: "I also mentioned this to Old John's squad leader, but he said, 'The innocent is like the clear water river under the Seine, no amount of filth can be discredited, let him go.'" ’”
Shen Chai nodded when he heard this, it seems that this old John is really an admirable magician.
"Senna Mountain?" Tang Shishi showed a thoughtful look when she heard this, "Is Old John's hometown in the Senna area? I heard that the Berkeley School of Magic there has risen strongly over the years, why did he come all the way to study at the Gruss School of Magic?"
"I didn't know anything about that. Cupia shook her head and said.
After Cupia left, Shen Chai said to Shen Xiaohe: "Xiaohe, you have to remember that our principle is to rob the rich and help the poor, so we can't ask the children of the common people for chocolate, their lives are already very hard, they may have never eaten chocolate when they grow up, you know?"
Shen Chai felt that Shen Xiaohe was like a blank sheet of paper, ignorant of external things, and it was necessary for him to tell her some truths he felt from time to time to help her build a worldview that was as correct as possible.
Shen Xiaohe blinked her eyes wide, nodded cutely, she took out a small notebook from the small pocket in front of her suspenders, and carefully wrote down what Shen Chai said.
After Tang Shishi's careful teaching, Shen Xiaohei can already write some basic Firo characters, and when she encounters words that can't be written, she will use some graphics instead.
Shen chased to Shen Xiaohe's side, bent down and looked at what was written in her notebook:
Adults say that Xiao Hey can't XX civilian OO, because they may not have XX OO in their lives.
If you can't write words when you eat them, replace them with X, and if you can't write them with chocolate, replace them with OO.
Shen Chai's face turned black directly after reading it: "Little hey, it seems that your study will be strengthened in the future!"
At this moment, there was another knock on the door, and Shen Chai opened the door and was immediately happy.
"Brother Shen," I saw Locke and Eddie standing at the door with smiles on their faces, "Let's meet again! Brother Shen was really heroic in the last magic tennis match!"
Shen Chai subconsciously covered his nose as soon as he saw the two of them, and the picture of these two people covered in poop immediately exploded in his mind, but they probably didn't know that the culprit of the last "death incident" was standing in front of them.
Locke and Eddie saw Shen Chai covering his nose, and suddenly the whole person was not good......
"Hehe, the two of you are so polite, come here, what kind of gifts do you bring!" Shen Chai still said this.
Locke and Eddie looked at each other in confusion, and then said embarrassedly, "It's getting late, let's visit again tomorrow!"
Looking at the gray backs of the two, Shen Chai really has no psychological burden at all, and he treats one to this kind of bullying the soft and afraid of the hard!
Shen Chai knew that there were still many people coming tonight, so he simply hung a sign on the door:
All students are welcome to come, don't bring gifts, otherwise I will be in a hurry with you!
