Chapter 81: Suspicious Interviewer
Saturday, June 30.
The day of the lecturer interview at the University of Beckland.
Valilla had breakfast, rode in her own carriage, and spent about ten minutes at the gates of Beckland University.
After getting off the bus, she walked into the campus alone.
Compared with the previous one, Valeera's demeanor has a touch of elegance.
Perhaps because there are too many graduates who come for interviews, corresponding signs are hung at various intersections on campus to guide graduates to various interview locations.
Valera followed the signs and twisted around them, eventually arriving at a classroom.
The classroom, where history graduates are waiting for interviews, is already filled with more than a dozen young men and women, both men and women, all dressed up in bright colors.
Obviously, they all took this interview very seriously.
This is not surprising, after all, this is the University of Beckland, the highest university in the Kingdom of Rune, and there are only three places for admission this year, so it seems that the competition is quite fierce.
However, there is a limit to the external blessings.
No matter how carefully they dressed, in front of Valera, they were still dark.
At least in terms of grooming, they lost completely.
Valilla had arrived only a quarter of an hour early, the last of them all, and she had found a seat and waited a moment for the interview to begin.
A man who looked to be twenty-five or sixteen years old, and who did not know whether he was a lecturer or a teacher, came to the teacher's door, read out a name, and asked him to go alone to the next classroom for an interview.
As time went on, one interviewee came and went, with different expressions.
During this time, the classroom was quiet and no one tried to talk.
Of course, eye contact is there.
There are always people who look left and right, look at others, and then make eye contact with another person at some point...... Then, both sides will quickly look away again and look away as if nothing happened.
It was some time again.
"Valera Kaldwin."
Here at Beckland University, her previous name is still left.
Valilla got up gracefully, smiled brightly, walked to the door of the next classroom, tapped on the door of the door, and walked in.
In the classroom, there were three people sitting in the front seat in the middle.
As she walked up to the podium, Valeera's eyes froze.
She didn't expect that she would recognize one of them directly.
Among the three, sitting in the middle is a middle-aged man with silver-rimmed glasses and a square face.
Valera recognized him.
Not long after she was promoted to "Instigator", in order to quickly establish the identity of the bounty hunter Lexa, she took the initiative and led the jealous gamble between the two powerful children.
Roger Hindras, Walden Grammier.
It was at the afternoon tea banquet held by Roger that this middle-aged man with a square face was talking to her with a cup of coffee.
"Bakerland University, Associate Professor of History."
"Barack Ascot."
Valeera's gaze moved down from the middle-aged man's face to the identity tag in front of him.
Then she looked to the left and right.
On the left is a man of about thirty years old, with a tall nose, and his identification tag reads:
"Faculty Member, Department of History, University of Beckland."
"Tan Sri Croyins."
On the right is a beautiful young lady with yellow hair and dark green eyes, and it is difficult to say her exact age.
Her badge reads:
"Faculty Member, Department of History, University of Beckland."
"Dalia Clark."
Valeera stood behind the podium, smiled and nodded, looked at each of the three interviewers, and said:
"Good morning."
"I'm Valyla Kaldwin, a graduate of the Department of History at Hoyin University, and my supervisor is Senior Associate Professor Quentin Cohen."
Associate Professor Barak, who was sitting in the middle, closed the manuscript in his hand and said with a smile:
"Not bad."
"Miss Kaldwin, we've seen your dissertation, and honestly, it's pretty well written."
"You don't have to be nervous, we'll ask you a few questions about the paper first, and then you can play on the spot and explain a piece of history."
"As for the topic, please draw it from the wooden box on the left side of the podium."
Valera smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”
……
The interview process is not worth mentioning.
Because it wasn't much of a challenge for Valeera.
Instead of feeling as nervous as Associate Professor Barak thought, she was so relaxed that she could do something else when answering questions.
】
For example, take a closer look at Associate Professor Barak.
Silver-rimmed glasses, square face, thick eyebrows, slightly heavy dark circles, neat black hair, and a sapphire-encrusted tie clip looming under the red tie...... Overall, nothing unusual was discerned.
But Valera still had some doubts.
She felt that at the afternoon tea banquet held by Roger, the associate professor approached her, which did not seem to be casual.
Because she was sitting alone at the time, it was obvious that people felt that they were not close to anyone, and generally no one was bored.
But this gentleman was different, holding a cup of coffee, took the initiative to find it, and did not flinch when he touched the soft nail, but tried to find a topic.
In the end, Valera forcibly interrupted the conversation through the summons of Roger and Waldden.
It wouldn't matter if she hadn't met this gentleman again today, but since she did, Valera had to be careful.
It would be terrible if this gentleman was extraordinary, and could see a certain trait in her, and then discover the secret of her gender change.
Valera plans to find an opportunity to meet this gentleman alone once and for all, in the capacity of the bounty hunter Lexa.
……
Tingen.
Reggins, a member of the Esoteric Order, finally waited for reinforcements from Beckland.
Moreover, it was more powerful than he expected.
Rosago sent two subordinates from Beckland, a "clown" and a "soothsayer".
In order to help them understand the gravity of the situation and play a more active role, Riggins told the story of the loss of Antigonus's family notes.
Of course, not all.
His version is that the note was missing, he was in charge of tracking it down, and now there are clues, but reinforcements are needed.
The only clue, of course, is Crane himself.
Reggins, who has been trying his best to monitor the scene of the eucalyptus, that is, Welch's residence, naturally will not miss such an important piece of information-
In the early hours of yesterday morning, Dunn brought Crane, who had been ruled out of suspicion, into Welch's house to receive the psychic of the "psychic" Dalie.
Therefore, after the night watchman cleared Welch's residence, the only clue left for Riggins was Crane himself.
Riggins temporarily gave the task of tracking Crane to the "Fortune Teller", and he and the "Joker" were in charge of keeping an eye on the Night Watch team.
In general, there is no more appropriate arrangement.
But, Crane is no ordinary person.
When the "soothsayer" tracks all the way to the University of Tingen, sees Crane coming out of the office building, and really determines the target, Crane clearly senses his surveillance.
And this poor "soothsayer" still knows nothing about it.
