Volume 1 The Witch Scourge and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 23 Miss Winslow's Strange Behavior
During the three-hour exam, Allen's exam room was always calm and there were no accidents. Everyone sat in a proper manner, answering the questions quietly, until the bird chirped three more times, and all the exam papers were collected by Ms. Meisha.
But things aren't going well with Riel.
After the commotion at the door, everyone felt that Miss Winslow's temper was too bad, so they sat down very quickly, for fear that a slower movement would anger her.
Riel was the same, his eyesight was good, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw his position at a glance, and he rushed to sit down a little further back in the middle of the classroom as fast as he could.
Facts have also proved that his approach is wise, because Setty, who is deeply myopic - a highly myopic little girl with a freckled face, usually does everything slowly, is the kind that takes a long time to think about it, and when she walked into the examination room, she didn't know who hit her and her glasses were knocked off. It was killing her, and the world was a blur for a moment, so when everyone was already seated, she was still fumbling with her glasses on the ground.
"Let me warn you first, you are not free to do anything unrelated to the exam without my permission!
The classroom was silent, for Miss Winslow's cold tone could tell that she was very dissatisfied with Setty, and looking at her face, it was already gloomy to the extreme, and she looked impatient. Sure enough, just as Setty's fumbling hand touched the frame, Miss Winslow finally broke out: "Get out! Get home!" With two consecutive roars, she stepped on Setty's glasses, directly smashing one of the lenses.
But that alone didn't seem to be enough to calm the anger in her heart, and she immediately took out her wand and aimed it at Setty's test paper: "Fire, brilliant burn!"
Setty's test paper was set on fire in an instant.
Poor Seti was frightened on the spot, and trembled and put on her torn glasses, until she saw that the test paper in her hand had burned to the point that only a corner was left, and she realized that she had been disqualified from the exam.
The fright and grievance made her cry all at once.
But Miss Winslow didn't care about that, and shouted out the door, "Cavendi, take her out!"
The other deputy examiner, who had been in charge of distributing the examination papers, hurried in and tried to take Setty out, but Setty sat on the ground and only knew how to cry, and seeing that Miss Winslow was about to lose her temper again, the deputy examiner named Cavendy looked at the paper that was almost burned in Setty's hand, and was afraid that Miss Winslow would set her clothes on fire this time, so he quickly dragged her out.
Immediately afterward, there was a deathly silence in the classroom, and the whole room was so frightened by Miss Winslow's temper that they all lowered their heads, and no one dared to squeak, not even wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads.
Until the chime bird chirped three times.
"Alright, let's get started. Miss Winslow seemed to be in a much more relaxed mood, and with a light remark she sat down in her chair, and began to nonchalantly admire her finely decorated nails.
There were no hints, not even instructions on how the kids should unlock the exam questions, and the room was full of people looking at each other.
Riel flipped through the exam papers, looking confused.
Everyone could see that she was deliberately making things difficult for them, but no one dared to raise their hands to ask more, because no one knew if her nameless fire would burn on their heads.
Just as Riel was at a loss, he heard a soft cough and his desk shook slightly, and he looked up to find Alyssa sitting in front of him to the left, gently raising her hand and tilting her head slightly to his side, as if to signal Riel to do what she did.
Of course, Riel will not do this, after all, in his eyes, Alyssa's suspicion has not been cleared, and she is not trustworthy at all. But when he saw Alyssa put her hand on her name, and then her exam paper began to show up little by little, he realized that he might really blame her, she really didn't seem to be the kind of person who would snitch.
Riel's head immediately lowered, covering his face with the exam paper, and his eyes didn't dare to look in her direction because of shame.
At this time, the people around Alyssa also noticed what to do and began to follow suit, and some even screamed softly because they couldn't suppress their excitement, only Riel still lowered his head, embarrassed to stretch out his hand.
Alyssa sighed softly, touched his table again, and whispered to him, "Infuse, magic".
Riel struggled for a while, feeling that the exam was more important than this pride, so he nodded embarrassedly and said that he understood.
Unfortunately, Alyssa's actions were taken seriously by Miss Winslow. Originally, she was sitting proudly in her chair, but suddenly found that most of the people were unlocking the exam papers and were ready to start answering the questions, which made her shocked and angry. I was surprised that someone knew how to unlock the exam papers, and I was angry that her plan to make things difficult went bankrupt.
She began to keep an eye on everyone, trying to find out who had broken her plan, and then punish him severely, only to see Alyssa speak.
"You two, get out of here!" Miss Winslow didn't know that Alyssa was the one who had taken the lead in unlocking the exam papers, but she could see it clearly. was holding back the fire in her stomach and had nowhere to go, but at this juncture, she caught the opportunity, and immediately roared and rushed over.
Riel was so frightened that he trembled all over, and after his heart was finished, he was really afraid of something, looking at this situation, they would probably be disqualified from the exam.
Miss Winslow seemed to be so angry that her face was twisted, and she raised her wand and aimed it at Alyssa's exam paper to say a spell.
Alyssa was also so frightened that she closed her eyes, completely afraid to move, ready to resign herself to fate.
Strangely, more than a minute had passed, and Miss Winslow had not heard the incantation utter.
She slowly opened her eyes, and cautiously raised her head to peek in, and saw that Miss Winslow was still holding her wand aloof, staring out the window.
Alyssa curiously followed her gaze and turned her head to look out of the window, and the people in the room had already noticed the anomaly, and they all looked out of the window, only to find Mrs. Darke standing out of the window with a gloomy expression, staring at Miss Winslow with a fierce look in her eyes, looking a little scary.
Riel was surprised, as he knew that Mrs. Decker was always smiling and looked serious, but he had never seen her look like this, and even gave him the illusion that he didn't know her before.
Just when everyone was surprised, Miss Winslow slowly put down her hand with some trembling, walked back to the chair and sat down again, and said coldly, "The exam continues." "It's like nothing happened before.
There was a little commotion in the exam room, not because the students were waiting for an opportunity to cheat, but because they were speculating about what was going on. I've seen too many things about Miss Winslow's untouchable appearance before, but now she was just glared at by an old lady a few times and then lost her temper?
It's incredible!
But when they looked out the window again, they saw that Mrs. Dalke was gone.
"Silence! Shut up anyone who doesn't want to be kicked out!" With this roar, Miss Winslow seemed to regain her presence, and the examination room fell silent again, except for the faint sound of quills scratching the parchment.
Confused by what had just happened, Rare felt like he was about to fall off a cliff with one foot in the air, but he accidentally grabbed a branch and saved his life.
With one hand on his head, he stole a glance at Alyssa, and saw that she had a calm expression on her face, writing the answer unhurriedly, which made Riel wonder if what had just happened had actually happened.
"Is it all an illusion?" he patted his head, still confused.
However, when he took a closer look at the exam papers, he found that what confused him even more was that there were some questions on the papers that he couldn't answer at all. Except for the first few questions, he was able to answer a few sentences in a so-so way, and every question he looked at next was a heavy blow to his confidence - well...... He really won't.
For the rest of the year, Riel was on the edge of his seat, feeling like he was on pins and needles every second, and every once in a while he sneaked a glance in Alyssa's direction, hoping that she would give him some hints or something. But after a while, he found that Alyssa didn't pay any attention to him at all, and the pen in her hand basically didn't stop, writing the answers on the test paper line after line.
After a few more moments, Riel broke the thought completely. He just felt like his brain was in a mess, and he couldn't write a word.
It stayed up like this until the time was announced, and the bird called three more times.
Miss Winslow did not hesitate for a moment, and immediately began to collect the examination papers as soon as she heard the first time signal. She tapped her wand in the air a few times and swiped a few times, and the exam papers flew back to her hands in turn.
The moment Riel's exam paper flew off his desk, he felt truly hopeless.
Miss Winslow took the exam paper and walked away without looking back, until she was far away, and then she said, "You can go!" Anyone who does not arrive on time at three o'clock in the afternoon is considered to have given up the examination. ”
Everyone was relieved to see Miss Winslow in the carriage through the window, and the air that seemed to have frozen in the examination room just now began to flow.
Remembering that there were only three hours to spare, the students crowded to the door one by one.
Rare and Alyssa were the last two to come out of the exam room because the thoughts in his head were a mess.
"Can you get 30 points? or...... Twenty points?" Riel tried to think of something else, but found that his brain was already filled with these thoughts. If it weren't for Alyssa knocking on his table to remind them that everyone was gone, he didn't know how long he would have been seated.
When they came out, they found that the people were basically gone, and only Alan was left waiting for them at the door.
