Volume 2 Saving and Doing Chapter 3 Out of place
Joey patted his chest with some fear, let out a sigh of relief, and said with a little envy, "That's Theodore, the son of the Marquis of Ogst Severyry" Luo Mu didn't say anything and nodded, the golden carriage slowly turned its head and walked outside the school gate, the morning light reflected the golden light in the reflection of the golden carriage, as if the man and the woman were gilded, and the extravagance was compelling.
Joey noticed the direction that Luo Mu was paying attention to, and said, " Behind Theodore is his sister Syris, speaking of which Syreth is much more low-key than her brother, but after all, it is a nobleman, no matter how low-key it is, it can be called a high-profile in our school, I heard rumors that Theodore has always had some thoughts about his sister, and this school was also proposed by Syris, and Theodore followed his sister to this school, otherwise with the identity of the Marquis of Ogst, the private middle school must have been chosen by them."
Joey said a lot with a little envy before he stopped, and suddenly he seemed to remember something, turned his head to look at Luo Mu and said, "Oh yes, Brother Mu, you should know, after all, you and..."
It seems that Joey wants to say something more, but Luo Mu waved his hand and said, "Let's go" Joey nodded, the two walked into the main teaching building, and waved goodbye, Joey was only sixteen years old, in the first year of high school, his classroom was on the first floor of this building, and Luo Mu's classroom was on the fifth floor of this building, except for going to and from school together and having lunch, basically during the day of class, they did not see each other.
Luo Mu slowly walked to the front of the classroom and walked in, there were already many people in the classroom, all chatting in groups, no one noticed Luo Mu walking in, even if someone saw it, it was just a glance and talked and laughed with the people on the side, Luo Mu's identity was clear to everyone on the first day he came to this class, and the class idea has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even if these are just some teenage children, no one will want to waste their tongues on Luo Mu.
But in this way, Luo Mu is also idle, Luo Mu slowly walked to a corner at the back of the classroom, his seat is here, Luo Mu put his schoolbag in the desk hall, and was a little sleepy to prop his hands on the desk and start, this corner seems to be isolated from all the sounds around him, and the noisy classroom at the moment is incompatible.
And just like Luo Mu's corner, there is another place that is out of place, just in front of Luo Mu's left, in the middle of the classroom by the window, a girl is sitting there reading quietly, the girl is none other than Ciris , Ciris has waist-length smooth long hair, the long hair is not pure black, but a little yellow brown, which makes the girl have a gentle temperament, Ciris 's facial features inherit the handsome appearance of the Ogster family, a slightly thin melon seed face, a pair of bright eyes, a straight nose, and Ciris is most eye-catching is her extremely soft lips, Ciris has smooth lip lines, a little thinner than other girls, ruddy lips glowing with a lustrous luster, and the crystal teeth exposed when Sirith's lips open and close slightly are more noble and self-contained.
Cyris was wearing a well-cut white dress, the waist and cuffs of the long skirt were slightly decorated with sand lace, the hem could cover her calves, revealing her white ankles, the long skirt did not have too many other patterns and decorations, despite this, it still exuded a restrained elegance, setting off Cyris as if she was a fairy who did not eat fireworks in the world, a long skirt alone was enough to discourage all civilians, and the price of this long skirt could even buy a year's rations for their family.
Cyris sat by the window and read quietly in the pale yellow morning light, occasionally stroking the hair that fell down her face behind her ears, she seemed to be isolated from the whole atmosphere, but there was no doubt that she was the heart of the whole classroom, all the people were scattered around her, and the boys in the classroom would quietly glance at her a few times while talking, and after seeing that Cyris did not react, they would talk more vigorously about the conversation they had been brewing all morning.
The girls may not look at Sirius many times, but there is no doubt that every girl looks at Sirius with envy in their eyes, Luo Mu sat in the corner of the classroom and watched all this quietly, Sirius didn't seem to notice everything around her, only focused on the books in front of her, Luo Mu was a little disdainful, shook her head slightly and lay on the desk, Luo Mu has seen more women than Sirius who are a hundred times more respected and ten times more glamorous, it seems that Sirius seems to ignore all the eyes around her, but who knows if she is enjoying all this, with her identity, she can obviously go to a private high school to get a better education, but she wants to come hereIf it weren't for the sake of enjoying this kind of high-profile treatment, would it be to experience the suffering of the people? Luo Mu thought with some amusement.
With the screeching of the bell, the commotion in the classroom instantly fell silent, Cicero Middle School is not only famous for the quality of education, but also for its strict teaching style, no student dares to do something unrelated to the class after the class bell rings, and if a student is late, he may even be whipped.
Ciris also closed the book, straightened his waist, and put his hands on the table, only Luo Mu was still a little listless lying on the table with his eyes closed, Luo Mu seemed to be like this forever and did not wake up.
As soon as the bell rang, a teacher walked in with a brisk step, the teacher looked like he was in his sixties, but he was still in good spirits, he looked around the classroom with blazing eyes, and then he didn't say anything, and directly started today's lecture, this teacher is teaching rhetoric today.
Rhetoric is highly respected by Corvo scholars, almost any school in Corvo's large or small cities will teach rhetoric, the great scholar Cicero has publicly stated that rhetoric learns to exercise students' hearts and minds, making them the pillars of the country, and rhetoric is also a discipline that is extremely particular about personal talent, and some scholars also call rhetoric eloquent, mainly through the polishing of their own language to make conversation and writing more attractive and convincing.
Corvo's education has been implemented for nearly fifty years, but it still can't avoid the rigid thinking of the old society, and the teaching method is still mainly based on memorization, and for Luo Mu, the learning method and content in Sissel are too simple and easy, and the education method of Cold Ridge in the Forest of the Dead is much more effective than here, for Luo Mu and others at that time, compared to the repeated dangers under the hands of Silver Wolf and Cold Ridge and even his companions, memorizing countless handouts and learning various etiquette can really be called a rare relaxation, for the students in these classrooms now, learning may be to have a better future, but for Luo Mu seven years ago, learning is to survive.
Luo Mu took out the book and put it on the table, supported his head with his hands, made a serious reading look, closed his eyes completely, and the morning time passed between Luo Mu's half-asleep and half-awake, during which there were several times of the teacher's recitation inspection, Luo Mu also deliberately said that it was the same as other students, and the recitation was stumbling, although the teacher was not very satisfied with Luo Mu, but he did not ask for anything more.
As the bell rang at noon, the teacher walked out of the classroom slowly, the atmosphere in the classroom instantly changed from silence to enthusiasm, the students were talking loudly about what to eat at noon, Cicero Middle School's education schedule is very tight, and only lunch time can take a break during the whole day's classes.
Luo Mu walked downstairs, Joey was already waiting for him in the hall on the first floor, seeing Luo Mu walking down, Joey stood on tiptoe and waved his hand at Luo Mu with a smile, the two walked out of the teaching building, and slowly walked towards the restaurant behind the teaching building, Joey still looked optimistic, and Luo Mu told Luo Mu some interesting things that happened in their class this morning, such as which student was late and was fined ten lashes by the teacher, and for example, which student did not complete the homework assigned yesterday and was beaten by the teacher, but Luo Mu suddenly frowned and looked at Joey.
Joey was stunned by Luo Mu's look, and turned his eyes a little unnaturally and said, "What's wrong, Brother Mu" It seems that Joey is no different from other times, but Luo Mu can clearly hear a trace of loss from Joey's tone, Luo Mu didn't speak, still looking at Joey, Joey smiled a little embarrassedly, waved his hand and said, "Hey, it's nothing, isn't it just that Paula scolded a few words, after all, people are good friends of Theodore, how can we from this small family provoke them"
Saying that, Joey pulled Luo Mu forward, "Let's go, let's eat." Luo Mu glanced at Joey again, didn't say anything more, the restaurant was full of people, Joey just entered the restaurant and ran to a window to line up, where he sold his favorite charcoal-grilled snails, Luo Mu walked to the farthest window of the restaurant and took two slices of bread, a bowl of porridge sat at a table and ate it, and Luo Mu just finished eating the first slice of bread, suddenly a noise sounded behind Luo Mu, Luo Mu turned his head, and the noise came from the window where Joey was queuing.
Luo Mu stood up and saw that Joey was getting up from the ground with some difficulty, and Paula was standing on the side with her arms just now, Paula's figure was extremely strong, and she looked even taller in the crowd at this moment, Paola pulled Joey who was struggling to get up, Joey didn't dare to resist, but desperately protected something with her hands, and none of the surrounding crowd dared to step forward, but there was a faint voice of dissatisfaction.
Paula's face sank, and his right hand hit Joey's head, and said a little coldly while waving his hand, "It is stipulated that each person can only take one copy, and today I will let you know what the rules are" Seeing that Paula's hand was about to hit Joey's head, Joey could only lower his head, and it looked like his whole fat face was shrunk into a ball, and suddenly, Paula felt his right hand beat, and his arm was actually caught.
Paula tilted her head slightly, Luo Mu was still wearing the somewhat shabby black cloth shirt, wearing white shorts on the lower body, her thin body couldn't even hold up such the most ordinary clothes, as if she was on a slender bamboo pole, Luo Mu still didn't look awake, Paul frowned tightly, Luo Mu's behavior made him feel great disrespect, he slammed his arm out of Luo Mu's hand, but at the moment when he exerted his strength, he seemed to feel that Luo Mu's slender fingers had become five steel bars tightly around his armγ
The huge force even made him think that his arm was about to break, Paula snorted, his face became pale, and even faintly revealed beads of sweat, Luo Mu didn't do anything more, he pulled Paula's hand away from Joey, patted the soil on Joey's body, let go of Paola's hand, and helped Joey squeeze into the crowd, Luo Mu didn't even look at Paola.
Paula was stunned and didn't say anything, just watched Luo Mu and Joey walk aside, Joey sat opposite Luo Mu, Luo Mu didn't say anything and picked up a piece of bread and ate it, while Joey put the thing he had been protecting just now on the table, it was a plate, and there were two charcoal-grilled snails on the plate.
Luo Mu glanced at it and said, "Why do you want to take two servings?" Joey's eyes flashed, there was a trace of innocence on his fat face, a little strange why Luo Mu was suddenly interested in these things today, Joey snorted and said, "I want you to taste it too" Luo Mu raised his head and looked at Joey, looked at it for a while, then took the snail on the plate in front of him, and skillfully picked out the snail meat with the tip of the back of the spoon and put it in his mouth.
Luo Mu ate quickly, and after a while, he finished eating, he took a sip of porridge, Joey seemed to be a little lost, and he hadn't started to eat yet, Luo Mu frowned rarely, looked at Joey very seriously, and said, "In the future, don't be so good to others easily"
Joey was stunned for a moment, looked at Luo Mu's serious face, thought for a moment, and then pursed his lips and nodded.
