Chapter 18 A Conversation on the Beach at Night
Mr. Lan was wearing a pair of beige trousers today, perhaps to avoid getting wet by the waves, and the trousers were folded up until a little below the knees, revealing two white calves, which looked good. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info is still wearing a white shirt with a loose style. The long hair of the waterfall was not coiled up like when I first saw it that day, but was casually draped over my shoulders.
The face without powder was still beautiful and moving, and he was looking at Caesar with a smile.
"Come with me?" she said casually.
"Ah...... Good. ”
The two of them walked on the beach together, Caesar didn't know what to say, he was a little nervous for no reason, and at the same time a little puzzled: The beach where he lives is so remote that it is almost out of the urban area of Aoki City, Mr. Lan shouldn't be idle and boring, take a walk here, right?
Caesar could sense that Teacher Lan seemed to have something to say.
However, after walking together for a long time, Mr. Lan never spoke, just walked quietly, stepping barefoot on the not very soft sand, which made Caesar a little worried about whether the feet, which were as white as his calves, would be hurt by the gravel?
But when he remembered what had happened in Team Leader Coleen's office that day, Caesar felt that he was completely blind.
That day, Teacher Lan was very simple, very direct, and very simple to express the idea of wanting Caesar to stay in the academy.
Team Leader Colleen was stunned.
The Director of the Pursuit Department frowned.
The silver-haired old man of the Roy family narrowed his eyes and said to Mr. Lan, "Please find out your identity and status, otherwise the Roy family won't mind helping you." ”
Then the silver-haired old man lay on the ground.
It's so simple, so simple that Caesar can't believe it until now.
Teacher Lan, who has that strength, would be a joke if he was punctured in the foot by a small stone.
Teacher Lan seemed to enjoy the sea breeze, squinted his eyes slightly, and suddenly asked, "Caesar, you are going to the special training class tomorrow, are you nervous?"
"I was actually quite nervous before. Caesar said honestly, "But I have done a lot of preparation in the past two days, and I have some confidence, so it's okay now." ”
"I heard that you and Wataru met, how do you feel?"
"Teacher Lan also knows Du?"
"Well, Wataru was the runner-up of the last Aoki hunting season, and this kind of person will be put on the list of key concerns by the major military academies, including the three major academies in the imperial capital, very early. ”
There are countless ordinary colleges and countless military academies in the empire, and standing at the top are always the three major academies of the imperial capital, and no other academy has ever been able to shake it. The joint military exercise of the three major academies of the imperial capital once every three years is one of the biggest events in the Wind and Thunder Empire, attracting countless attention and attention. Caesar knew this very well, because in the recent Dragon Dao trial, the young men and girls who he had fought against were all demons, and now they were in the three major courtyards.
Duneng was put on the watch list by the three major hospitals, and it is the focus of attention, which is really remarkable.
Caesar recalled the stout young man who had only spoken a few words and cast a dragon claw vine orchid after his appearance, and said truthfully: "I can't beat him for the time being." ”
When he said this, Caesar's tone was calm and his mood was calm.
Du's level is two levels higher than his own, and he enjoys the most superior cultivation resources of the special training class, and he, except for the Wind and Thunder Physical Technique, everything else is learned by himself. So Caesar didn't feel that he was worse than Watar. What's more, Caesar's current focus is actually not on Wataru at all. He just wants to stand firm in the special training class where the genius is like a cloud. As long as you stand on your feet, then there will be what should be.
Caesar was now focused not on anyone else, but on himself.
"It seems that your mentality is really good. Teacher Lan sighed softly and showed a strange smile, "But actually, I'm quite nervous." ”
Caesar turned his head to look at Mr. Lan's smiling side face, thinking to himself which nervous person would be like you?
I only heard Teacher Lan continue: "You know, the minimum threshold for the special training class is level 4. So theoretically speaking, you are only level 3 at the moment, and you are not qualified to go there. I was originally a new teacher, easy to be excluded, just arrived in the new environment, instead of learning to be low-key, I directly brought a controversial student who was not good enough and was not optimistic about the future into the special training class, which was more than I imagined...... Well, how to say it...... It's a little harder. ”
Caesar was silent.
When Mr. Lan said this, his tone was very flat, and he even smiled. She didn't mean anything in particular, just simply and calmly stated a fact.
But Caesar could feel that the pressure on Teacher Lan in the past two days may have been great.
Perhaps it is because of the pressure that I came here for a walk and a break on the eve of the harsh challenge.
Caesar didn't say polite words like "don't force it or not" or "you don't have to do it for me", nor did he say any promises such as "I'll do it again" or "Please rest assured".
Now that it has been decided that he is going to the special training class, whether it is psychological withdrawal or verbal withdrawal, it is an insult to Teacher Lan.
Caesar stared at Teacher Lan's side face and asked the question he had always wanted to ask, "Why are you helping me?"
"I and you, Teacher Lan, definitely didn't know each other before! I haven't saved anyone except Jasmine since I was a child, so you can't owe me any favors, and then come to pay me back. ”
Caesar looked at Teacher Lan in the night and asked, "In that case, why don't you help me even if you offend the Roy family?"
Teacher Lan smiled: "I can't see that you look arrogant, and your heart is quite detailed." Jasmine: Is that your little girlfriend?"
Caesar said helplessly, "Teacher, can you not divert the topic?"
Teacher Lan said, "Okay, you really want to know?"
"I really want to know. ”
Teacher Lan slowly restrained his smile, found a reef and sat down, soaked his feet in the seawater, swayed gently, and then said succinctly and clearly: "Because of the dragon road." ”
Caesar was shocked, and a sharp light suddenly shot out of his eyes.
The psychological change was immediately reflected in the body language, Caesar was originally sitting next to Teacher Lan, but at this time he leaned slightly to the side, as if instinctively resisting.
Teacher Lan waved his hand and said, "You don't have to do this, I didn't investigate you in particular." I have a background in the Imperial military, so I already knew about you before I came here. ”
Teacher Lan paused when he said this, turned his head to look at Caesar, and sighed softly: "I really didn't expect to meet someone here who dared to kill the first heir of the Twelve Round Table Families of the Empire. I didn't expect such a person to be a strange boy with explosive power and surprise, but he couldn't raise his speed. ”
Caesar listened to the other party and did not investigate himself, and was silent for a moment, and then his tense body slowly relaxed, but he was a little confused: "Teacher Lan, what do you want to say?"
Teacher Lan said: "I just said that I value you because of the things you did in the Dragon Road, but in fact, it is not exactly praise, but also derogatory. I feel like there are some things that you didn't handle well enough, and those things you could have handled well. I feel sorry for your current situation, so I can't help but give you a hand. ”
Caesar stayed for a long time before he smiled bitterly and said, "I see...... So. I still think that I was doing some things quite handsomely at that time......"
Teacher Lan motioned for Caesar to sit down beside him, and then said in a slow tone, "You should have noticed it yourself, the Roy family is eyeing you." In the experimental department, you will not only meet geniuses with different styles, but also students with the surname Roy, and even teachers with the surname Roy. You should understand what that means. ”
Caesar frowned and asked, "The Roy family is eyeing me, and it has something to do with the Twelve Round Table family?"
"It's a possibility. "There are other possibilities as well. But in short, the Roy family has their sights on you, that's for sure. And what happened to you at the blacksmith yesterday was actually not handled very well. You should learn to take a break and retreat, and it is not necessarily a good thing to carry it habitually. ”
Caesar thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because of personal experience, I habitually don't dare to retreat." As you probably already know, I don't have parents, I don't have relatives, and once I retreat, I won't have a wall behind me to rely on, and I will only fall into the abyss in one step. Ouch!"
Caesar covered his head and looked at Teacher Lan who knocked lightly on him in amazement, the smile on the other party's face had disappeared, and he was rarely a little displeased.
This...... What's going on?
