Chapter 136: The Shock That Ensued
The eyes of Professor Yao and most of the students in the class fell on the dog that came without telling him.
Jiang Yu and Xiao Xiao looked at Zheng Qing at the same time.
Because the two of them knew what the origin of the dog was, especially Jiang Yu, in the afternoon she and Zheng Qing were under the cat's fruit tree, and saw the dog disappear into a shadow on the grass with her own eyes.
Like the two of them, Zheng Qing was also confused at the moment.
"Whose dog is this?!" Professor Yao asked, raising his voice.
The classroom was silent, and no one would admit that they had anything to do with the strange dog. There were a few lines of sight sweeping around Zheng Qing, but the young public scholarship student kept a straight face from beginning to end, and did not show the slightest appearance of knowing it.
"Don't let me take it to the school committee to confirm. The professor accentuated his tone slightly, which made the already dreary atmosphere in the classroom even more depressing.
A moment later, there was silence in the classroom.
The eyes of the students wandered secretly over the dog and the professor. The dog also seemed to sense the ominousness in the air, and the cheerful tail that was originally thrown sat coiled under the buttocks, with two small dark eyes dripping, looking left and right, looking innocent.
Professor Yao finally couldn't hold back—he couldn't let an inexplicable puppy disturb the normal regular meeting of the class—he took the pipe from his mouth and knocked the lectern with the smoke pot:
"Ge Zhi Tanxi!"
A few streaks of green exploded from the lectern and hovered in mid-air for weeks, like snakes smelling delicious, scrambling to rush to the puppy sitting in the corner of the classroom.
Zheng Qing didn't have time to react at all, and could only see a few green lights flash in front of him.
"Smack......
When the vines were tightly tied, they made a crisp pop, as if someone snapped their fingers a few times, making everyone who heard it feel a chill in their hearts. Whether it was the professor's sudden attack or this slightly rough arrest method, it seemed a little unusual.
But what is even more surprising is that Professor Yao actually missed.
Although the rattan was fast, it still pounced in the air, and the little dog turned into a phantom the moment the rattan landed on his body, and disappeared from everyone's sight in a blink of an eye. Its panicked 'meow' sound was still lingering in the air.
Zheng Qing's eyes flickered.
Professor Yao, who was still standing on the podium just now, appeared in front of the windowsill the next moment. The vines summoned by the bondage spell turned into bits of green and dissipated as he arrived. The professor lowered his head and carefully examined the dog's traces on the windowsill, his expression a little serious.
"Professor?" Downton, the class president, heard in the classroom.
Professor Yao was stunned, and his brows furrowed very tightly. Because of the proximity, Zheng Qing vaguely saw the professor's nose flutter slightly. This discovery made his throat and eyes dry a little.
The young wizard twisted uneasily in his seat, looking left and right. Many people were talking to each other whispering about the puppy's origins. Xiao Xiao was taking notes on the side, and Jiang Yu was holding Li Meng's shoulders and whispering something in her ear.
"Professor!" Downton raised his voice slightly.
"Huh?" Professor Yao came back to his senses at this time, glanced at Downton, and then noticed that there was some commotion in the class. He chuckled softly, left the ledge, and took two steps forward.
happened to be standing beside Zheng Qing.
Zheng Qing held his breath.
"Funny little thing...... A very clever spatial magic was used to get rid of the attack of the Bondage Charm. The professor's face did not show any embarrassment after being posed by the puppy, but showed his usual smiling face: "Then the question is: if you are in the position of the puppy just now, what should you do in the face of the sudden 'bondage charm'?"
As he spoke, he put the pipe back into his mouth, and his free hand casually pressed on the shoulder of the young scholar and pressed it twice:
"Zheng Qing, you come to answer this question. ”
The young wizard felt that his legs were a little weak, he licked his dry lips, propped himself up with his arms, and replied in a low voice, "The peach is dying, and it is scorching." ”
"Very good! If this is a practice exam, you'd already get half of the marks. ”
The professor patted the young wizard on the shoulder with satisfaction, motioned for him to sit down, and walked briskly back to the podium, continuing as he went, continuing his speech that had been interrupted a few minutes earlier:
"What about the remaining half? Just be able to use the spell correctly...... As I emphasized earlier, there are less than ten days left until your final exams. You must seize this last critical moment. As the saying goes, grinding guns in battle, not fast is also light...... Ten days may be difficult for you to memorize the intricacies of potions or combinations, but ten days will allow you to increase your proficiency in the spells you've learned this school year by a few percent......"
With that, Professor Yao skimmed the puppy lightly and began to talk about how to seize the remaining time before the final exam to improve the practice score in the Charms class.
Zheng Qing listened absentmindedly.
On the one hand, it was because Professor Yao had just patted him on the shoulder, which made him still a little flustered and short of breath. On the other hand, the way the dog disappeared was the same as when he was under the cat fruit tree, which also added a shadow to his heart.
Why did the puppy appear in the classroom? Was it tracking him, or was it tracking Jiang Yu? Or was it just a coincidence? Did Professor Yao find something? What did he mean by standing next to him? Was it to warn himself not to reveal his identity to others, or was he aware that the dog had some kind of connection with him?
One question mark after another popped up in the wizard's mind, and then he was crushed by one question mark after another. The professor's voice on the podium was so loud that he could hear every word, but he couldn't understand the meaning of the professor's words.
In this way, Zheng Qinghun spent the entire weekend regular meeting in a daze.
Back in the dormitory at night, Xiao Xiao tried to discuss the matter of the puppy with Zheng Qing, but was vaguely confused by the male witch. Because apart from knowing that the dog used to go to the cat fruit tree before, could bark cats, could disappear as a phantom, and bit himself, Zheng Qing didn't know more than others.
Banner was interested in the puppy — but only because of a reporter's curiosity about new and strange things, and he didn't plan to waste too much time on a puppy learning to bark at such a critical time as the end of the term.
After the lights went out, Xiao Xiao was still whispering to the fat man about the origin of the puppy.
Zheng Qing squinted, staring at the top of the black tent, his thoughts gradually fell into chaos, but his senses became more and more sensitive—in the darkness, he could slowly hear the different light and heavy breathing of his roommates, he could hear the elf flickering its wings and glide through the air, and he could hear the fat cat purring and purring.
Then at some point, the young public scholarship student suddenly opened his eyes and tore open the account.
Outside the tent.
Three pairs of green eyes were shining in the dark dormitory.
"Ah!!h
The young wizard screamed in fright.
The dormitory suddenly lit up.
