Chapter 1: How Flowers Will Bloom (2)
"Xiaobai. Yi Ziyun jumped in front of Xiao Baiyu and stared at him with big eyes, "What do you want to do?"
"You'll know when the time comes. Xiao Baiyu said as he put the broadsword in his hand back to its original position.
"Why do I have a feeling that you're going to have serious consequences. ”
"Yes, if I want to dominate the world, I must first hit the world's number one. Xiao Baiyu smiled faintly.
"You...... It's really not oil and salt. Yi Ziyun pouted angrily, she was very familiar with Xiao Baiyu's personality (except for the past three years), and she saw that it was harmless to people and animals, and the smile on her face was very reassuring. But he's just capable of doing things with a gentle smile that will leave you stunned.
In two days, the date of the second type of assessment will be reached, and the location of the assessment has been announced - Istanbul, Turkey.
At this time, Xiao Baiyu rarely received a call from Han Luanshou.
"How have you been?"
"Very good, nothing was going on. Also, thank you for your concern. Xiao Baiyu yawned lazily, "In two days, I will take the second type of assessment." ”
"Oh, where?"
"Istanbul, I remember there was a museum there with an ancient map, do you know where it is? In ancient times, people were able to draw partial maps of the world without satellites, which made me a little interested, and I was going to stop by and take a look at it......"
As he spoke, Xiao Baiyu found that there was some abnormal silence on the other side of the phone, with Han Luanshou's complaining skills, he should not be able to let himself say such a long sentence in one breath.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, stay safe there. ”
Xiao Baiyu was a little confused, this kind of weird advice was not at all like the style of the uncle, "Hey, is it Mr. Han Luan on the other side of the phone?"
"This time I'm seriously reminding you that, after all, it's Istanbul. ”
"Oh, so you've had a lot of experience in Istanbul. ”
"yes, it's not pretty. ”
"You know, you won't deliberately remind me to 'stay safe' after a good experience. Remember to come over and drive your car back for the next two days. ”
"It's my car, why do I have the feeling that I'm just a driver?"
"Your complaining skills have risen again. ”
Hanging up the phone, Xiao Baiyu and Yi Ziyun went to the restaurant together, and Feng Hate Song and Laura were already waiting for them there to order lunch.
"Brother. Laura, who still only speaks Pashto, couldn't wait to wave and say hello the moment she saw Xiao Baiyu.
"You really don't stop, you just came back and made such a big noise, I followed you to the restaurant and attracted attention. ”
"Shut your mouth. Xiao Baiyu choked unceremoniously on the wind hate song, after all, this guy's "praise" was obviously not from good intentions.
Yi Ziyun immediately sat next to Laura and chatted with her, Xiao Baiyu interjected from time to time, only Feng Hate Song sat next to her and ate with a blank face.
"I wonder what is the point of you initiating this duel?" Feng Hate Song asked the question that Yi Ziyun had just asked, which naturally attracted Xiao Baiyu's eyes.
"It's just a show. ”
"Isn't it, the academy specially designed a performance of the vice principal's defeat to warn the new classmates after he loses?"
"No, it's my lead show. Xiao Baiyu said, "At least I'm acting well now." ”
"What do you mean?"
"Since it's a performance, it requires careful input from the actors, and spoilers are not interesting. Xiao Baiyu smiled slightly, unwilling to say more......
In the evening, the long convoy drove into the grass fields on both sides of the large garden of the Dawn Hotel, and the students who had just arrived today all entered the hotel to rest, leaving Xiao Baiyu alone in the empty garden to wander in front of the flower bed.
"Is there anything you're looking for me?" a cold voice sounded behind him.
"You still have that temporary phone number. Xiao Baiyu turned to look at Ji Duyu.
"Well, what's wrong?" the girl clasped her hands to her chest, tilted her head to one side, two red glows rose from her cheeks, and her hair was wet, as if she had just taken a bath.
"Nothing, just a little surprised. ”
"You're so imposing today. Ji Duyu raised her head slightly and looked at Xiao Baiyu.
"I heard it this time, at least not in praise. Xiao Baiyu smiled helplessly, after winning the class basketball game last time, she was also "praised" like this.
"You've changed so much. Ji Duyu sighed, she vaguely remembered that the boy she called "Little White Fish", after winning the last game, the smile on his face was extraordinarily bright, a little silly, but it made her heart beat a little faster. However, today, during the boy's victory over the "One Sage" of the Protoss, the smile on his face was cold, and there was not even the slightest excitement in his eyes after the victory.
"But Han Luan often says, 'People always change', I don't think it's strange that change happened to me, and it's ......"
"I want to know who you are. Ji Duyu interrupted Xiao Baiyu's tirade.
"Xiao Baiyu. ”
"What I'm talking about is the identity behind the name. ”
"You should know the son of the chairman of the God's Generation Committee. ”
"I don't think there's any need for our conversation to continue!" said Ji Duyu indignantly, turning to leave.
"An experiment of the Divine Descent Research Institute," Xiao Baiyu said lightly, "I think this answer is enough to satisfy you." ”
Ji Duyu's body froze in place, and her body turned around with some trembling, her eyes were full of shock, and she seemed to be a little incredulous: "What?"
"That's it, you didn't hear anything wrong. Xiao Baiyu said, "But it hasn't fallen to the level of a guinea pig." ”
"Then which one is the real you?" Ji Duyu's voice was not as calm as it was at first, "Xiao Baiyu half a year ago and Xiao Baiyu now. ”
"I've had both of these real, and I can't say who is false. ”
"Can you go back to the way you were?"
"I'm sorry, I can't. Xiao Baiyu's answer made Ji Duyu's hand hold the corner of her clothes tightly.
"Why did you come to me?" Ji Duyu took a deep breath, and her voice returned to coldness.
"Borrow your sword. ”
"Xuanyuan Xia Yu Sword?" Ji Duyu said in surprise, "What are you borrowing it for?"
"I still have a duel to fight. ”
"Duel? What are you kidding? Isn't this one enough today, that's not how the sword is used. Ji Duyu said angrily.
"I'm sorry, but thank you anyway. Xiao Baiyu smiled slightly, and walked towards the hotel after speaking.
"Wait, even if I don't lend it to you, will you still find someone to lend a famous weapon to participate in a duel?" Ji Duyu suddenly thought that the situation that Xiao Baiyu asked her to accompany her to Kabul that day was very similar to today.
"Yes. ”
"Tell me, who are you going to duel with. ”
"Stuart. ”
"Stuart?" Ji Duyu frowned, not very impressed by the name.
"An archon of the Atlas of the Celestial descent, he is also one of the leaders of the school's academic affairs office, and also serves as a teacher of etiquette. ”
"But why did you challenge him?"
"He changed my pilgrimage route?"
"Is it just because of this?" The moment she heard the reason, Ji Duyu almost froze.
"Of course not, I just can't tell you just yet, but everyone will know when the duel is over. Xiao Baiyu said, "Of course, my reasons are sufficient. ”
"Whew......" Ji Duyu glanced at Xiao Baiyu a little helplessly, and sighed, "Although I have a bad premonition, I don't want to see you cause trouble to others!"
"Thank you. Xiao Baiyu felt a little funny, why hadn't she discovered her "tsundere" attribute before.
"Don't blame me if you don't fit well with this sword. ”
Xiao Baiyu nodded.
......
A day later, in the northeastern suburbs of Athens, Greece.
"The entrance ceremony for new students is all in preparation. The old man sat down on the sofa and smoked his cigar quietly, and said slowly.
"Yes, the senior students are ready, don't worry about the execution of the students now. Byron sat down at the wooden table in the headmaster's office and said, "But you, old Masefield, don't keep giving me your assignment on the grounds of 'old age.'" ”
"Of course, these things have to be done by young people, and when you find someone suitable for the position of vice principal, I should step down and make way for Xian. The old man said, "By the way, nothing has happened on this pilgrimage, so show me the report, and let me share a little task for you young people, lest you keep saying that I don't know anything but smoke cigars all day." ”
"Who dares to find fault with you, everyone has gone to take care of their old age, and you are the only one who is still struggling on the front line. Byron pulled one out of a pile of papers and handed it to Masefield, then leaned back on his desk and took a sip of his tea, "When did the sirloin cool?" ”
"It's not bad, there was only one case of the pilgrimage road this year using a call for help. Maesfield puffed lightly on the smoke ring.
"Well, I heard Frederick mention it when I was in Jerusalem. ”
"Huh?" said Mesfield, pulling out a report, "it was the little guy from Tibet who used the call for help." ”
"That's very likely," Byron smiled, "after all, I was cheated by that guy from Stuart, and it would take a lot of effort just to climb over the Tibetan Plateau, and it would be ......"
As he spoke, Byron's smile gradually froze: "Wait, who did you say was the one who used the call for help?"
Mesfield glanced at Byron suspiciously, and handed the information directly to him.
Byron looked at the report written by a graduate named "Wei Wenke", and his face became more and more solemn, until he saw the conclusion at the end of the report that "there were no student casualties in this operation, but one human student died", and suddenly thought of something.
"What's wrong? You seem to have found something. ”
"This cadet, Gavin's son, is almost impossible to get into trouble in terms of combat effectiveness alone. If there is any trouble, it is useless for the teacher who went to support him. Byron then told Maesfield about his participation in the duel, "that is, the report did not give all the information." ”
"Shouldn't that be a good thing? You've got blood that could be a 'Ω'. ”
"No, you haven't dealt with this little guy, he doesn't think the same way we do. I'll call Stuart and Frederick first. ”
"Did he know that his pilgrimage road was 'cared for' by Stuart?"
"It is quite possible that this seemingly inconsequential matter will be revealed by Frederick. Stuart must know about my failure in the duel......"
"It's just a duel, and even if Stuart loses, there's nothing to lose. ”
"I'm not worried about this ......," Byron dialed his cell phone number.
