Chapter 34: A Late Lunch Break

By the end of the luncheon, it was almost half past one in the afternoon.

There is only more than half an hour before the official start of class at two o'clock, which is not enough for a lunch break, and it is too late to go to the library - maybe the front foot has just found a vacant seat in the library, and the back foot is about to run towards the teaching building.

After sending off the little monk Shiyuan, only the members of the 403 dormitory were left in the house.

It was only at this time that Zheng Qing turned his gaze to Xiao Xiao.

Dr. Shaw barely spoke at today's meeting—a very rare case—and his intuition told the public scholarship that the doctor must have discovered something, but it was inconvenient to say it to everyone.

"What did you find?" Zheng Qing walked up to the doctor, lowered his voice, and asked in a low voice.

Xiao Xiao raised her eyebrows, not surprised by Zheng Qing's discovery.

"Is goat's milk good?" he replied softly.

Zheng Qing glanced at the several empty goat milk bottles on the table and blinked.

"Not bad. He complimented him sincerely.

"Then when did you think goat's milk was good?" Xiao Xiao asked in a different way.

is as dull as Zheng Qing, and he can also hear the obscure meaning in this question.

"So, it has something to do with goat's milk, right?" Fat Xin had been paying attention to the chat in this small corner since just now, and listened carefully with one ear, and when he heard this, he finally couldn't help but interject:

"Actually, I've noticed that there seem to be more people drinking goat's milk lately...... Usually there aren't many people except me who go to fetch goat's milk, but there was a queue at that place this morning! There must be a problem!"

"It does seem a little strange to say that. Zheng Qing suddenly remembered the theme of today's meeting, and couldn't help but confirm: "Is Lin Guo's black goat male or female?"

"Of course male!" Xiao Xiao rolled his eyes: "Have you ever seen a female goat with such big horns?"

"If I were you, I would be more cautious before giving my opinion. Fat Xin raised a stubby index finger, shook it in front of his companion's eyes, and said in a lecturing tone peculiar to old-school wizards, "...... You know, you're in a wizarding university right now. There's no possibility that magic can't do. ”

"Although Lin Guo's big black is a ram, this does not rule out the relationship between the two things. Xiao Xiao leaned back and stretched: "On the contrary, there must be something to do with this...... Brother Qing inexplicably likes to drink goat's milk, and Lin Guo's black goat disappears again. ”

Zheng Qing suddenly remembered the hideous outer god phantom in the northern district of Beta Town last night.

He instinctively felt that there was a vague thread running through these nodes, stretching into the depths of the mist, known or unknown.

“...... In many cases, before a crisis comes, pets are always more aware of the situation than wizards," Xiao Xiao finally concluded: "It's like the rats scurrying around before the earth dragon rolls over, and the beasts come out of the forest after the silent resurgence." We cannot afford to let go of any subtle clues on this kind of issue. ”

The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, Zheng Qing subconsciously thought of Liu Feifei's missing snake, and then realized that Poseidon doesn't seem to be too sticky with himself recently - of course, because there have been too many affairs in the past two or three weeks, he doesn't have much time to take care of the relationship with the little fox, but it can't be ruled out that the little fox has a 'new love'.

With this concern, after the luncheon, Zheng Qing did not go to the teaching building as soon as possible, but went to the pet garden first.

The guard of the pet farm is still an acquaintance, Deng Xiaojian.

"When did you take care of the pet farm?" Zheng Qing asked curiously when filling out the application form for visiting.

"Temporary help. Deng Xiaojian replied succinctly with a dark face.

He wouldn't tell his junior that he had lost a bet on a hunt and had to take on the drudgery—according to his own wishes, he would never waste time on such trivial matters. Isn't it nice to have that spare time, running two laps in the hunting ground?

While speaking, the student on duty took the application form and entered the garden to find Poseidon.

But soon he walked out empty-handed.

"Not there?" After hearing the answer from the pet farm guard, the young public scholarship student shouted out in a bit of a gaffe: "What do you mean by not being there? My pet is not here, where is it?"

For a moment, he thought of the tragic death of the little white cat whose eyes had been gouged out, the black goat that Lin Guo lost, and the angry appearance of the owner of the Qingqiu Mansion.

This made him shudder involuntarily.

The pet garden guard turned his head slightly to avoid Zheng Qing's sound.

Zheng Qing noticed that some students passing by outside the garden were looking at this side with interest, and immediately lowered his voice: "You can't lose my pet like this, right...... This is subject to legal responsibility...... We have a contractual relationship with each other...... Is there one?"

"Limited liability, for pets placed at school, the school has always had limited liability. Deng Xiaojian very politely corrected the boy's point of view, and at the same time reminded: "And it was no one else who picked up Poseidon......

As he spoke, he flipped through the clipboard in his arms and found another application form and shoved it under the nose of the young scholarship student.

"Su Ya, this is the name left by that little fox girl. The pet garden guard analyzed matter-of-factly: "It sounds like it has something to do with Qingqiu Mansion...... But she's holding a note that you've signed. Do you still have a relationship with Qingqiu Mansion?"

Zheng Qing breathed a sigh of relief, but was frightened by Deng Xiaojian's question.

"It doesn't matter," he replied dryly, while indignantly accusing, "when did I sign the note...... It's just that they have traded some rune paper before, and they like Poseidon very much...... This time it must be that little girl who is making her own decisions!"

Deng Xiaojian looked at him suspiciously, and finally didn't say anything.

"It's your business. He shrugged his shoulders and withdrew the two application forms - now that the magic seal had been checked, the rest had nothing to do with the pet house.

Zheng Qing wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and made a note to a certain little fox girl in his heart.

Even if he remembered it, he couldn't do anything.

But there is always an attitude.

Look at the pocket watch, it's less than a quarter of an hour before class. The boy gave up his plan to go to Qingqiu Mansion immediately, and after saying goodbye to the duty of the pet garden, he went straight to the teaching building.

Hurriedly, he finally sat in his place before Teacher Zhang entered the classroom.

As soon as my heart relaxed, the tiredness that had been suppressed for a long time came up like a tide.

The May sun is soft.

There is no spicy July and August, nor the coldness of March and April, it falls on people, warm, and is most suitable for sleepy insects to reproduce. After only sitting in the classroom for half an hour, Zheng Qing felt that his eyelids were about to stick together.

"It's time to take the insecticide...... There's a sand bug at school again?"

This was the only thought left in the witch's mind at the last moment before he lost consciousness.
