"Congratulations on getting rich, congratulations on your brilliance!"
At Eastern State, the song "Congratulations on Getting Rich" echoed through the shopping malls.
The citizens were bustling with activity, buying things in big and small bags. Tomorrow was New Year's Eve. To prepare a perfect reunion dinner, many people had already bought their ingredients. Some only made their move today. Some bought Spring Festival couplets, lanterns, zodiac decorations, candies and so on.
In the past year, Eastern State was still shrouded in the shadow of the influenza during Chinese New Year. Then there was the panic of legionella pneumonia. Finally, there was the shadow of the Mutated Scale Disease.
Now it was Chinese New Year again. The dead were gone but the living were still alive. Everyone wanted to celebrate the new year happily.
At that moment, Chen Jiahwa accompanied his mother to the mall. He was wearing the Phecda University uniform, he stood out like a sore thumb among the crowd.
With the help of the government, things like Phecda University and Phecda University gradually entered the lives of the common people. Most people knew about this, they knew there were people protecting the people against the darkness. Therefore, they were not that surprised when they saw them.
To normalize the Phecda members was to increase the public's confidence, to dispel their fear and to educate them on how to seek help if they encountered supernatural forces.
Therefore, Chen Jiahwa wearing the school uniform was allowed by the school rules and was encouraged by the school.
Dressed like this, many heads turned to look at him. Many young girls of his age turned to look at him. Chen Jiahwa was, after all, only 18 years old. He couldn't help but straighten his back, feeling that all the suffering he had endured this past semester was worth it.
They arrived at a candy and dry goods shop. The shop owner recognized them because he was his mother's old classmate.
Seeing them walk in, the shop owner and his wife greeted them happily, "Jiahwa, it's the holiday!" "How's Phecda University?"
The customers who were picking out candies from the shelves also turned to look at them. A group of high school girls had stars in their eyes.
"Yes." Chen Jiahwa answered. Mother Chen sighed with both worry and pride. "Sigh, what's so good about this Phecda University? I told him not to go but he insisted on going! This winter holiday is on the fourth day of Chinese New Year, it's only a week. "
"Mom!" Chen Jiahua quickly stopped her in a low voice. He had already told her not to speak nonsense, but she was still like this. It really made him feel helpless.
You're acting like a nouveau riche. Really, can't you see those girls looking over here?
"Jiahua is so promising!" The lady boss praised. "Who doesn't know about Phecda now? Only elites can study in this school. How promising! "
"It's true that Phecda is an elite, but …" Mother Chen laughed and sighed again. This time, she was really worried. "Look at the news. A while ago, someone sacrificed their life again. Even Gu Jun was seriously injured and was in a coma for a few months. He could die at any time. This job is too dangerous."
Right now, the name Gu Jun was not considered to be well-known on the streets, but it was already well known by many commoners.
"Dangerous, that's true," the lady boss said. The shop owner said, "Otherwise, why would they call him a pillar of the country! Jiahua, do you know Gu Jun? "
"No, of course not." Chen Jiahua gasped in shock.
Many commoners did not know the difference between Phecda University and Phecda University. They thought university was the same as entering the game, but that was far from it. University was merely a training ground for talents. Chen Jiahua explained, "We're just normal students, Gu Jun is the top member of the Special Mobile Force."
The existence of the Special Mobile Force had also been revealed to the public.
At the same time, when the name Gu Jun was mentioned, the girls' eyes lit up. But when they heard he did not know Gu Jun, they were disappointed.
Chen Jiahua did not mind because he was also a fan of Gu Jun. "But I've met Gu Jun before. It was during the opening ceremony, Gu Jun gave us a speech. There was another occasion that I don't know if counts, but it was a visit organized by Eastern State Phecda. There's a statue of Gu Jun at the Medical Department. "
He made it sound like he was familiar with Gu Jun, but that was not the case.
But to the shopkeeper and the customers, this was impressive. Only then did they know that Eastern State Phecda had a statue of Gu Jun, even though this had been reported by the media.
"Jiahua, do you have the chance to join the Special Mobile Force in the future?" The shopkeeper asked. If Jiahua was accepted, he would be able to tell others that he knew his old classmate's son from the Special Mobile Force.
"There should be a chance." Chen Jiahua nodded. His voice rose involuntarily. "My performance at school is not bad."
He was not bluffing. In this semester, he excelled in medicine and other subjects. Furthermore, he was quite talented. Before the holidays, he was selected to join a special training class.
This special training class was not simple. According to rumors, it was led by a big shot from the headquarters, Gu Jun's old boss, Tong Ye. This time, only 50 students were selected from their batch. Combined with other talents from other sources, they would undergo a 2-month training together.
"This special training class will decide your future," the teacher said solemnly. The teacher said solemnly, "You are a blank piece of paper. This is your advantage. You can paint however you want. You are highly malleable. This is also your disadvantage because you don't know anything and haven't experienced anything. How you will grasp this opportunity, where you will go after the training, and whether you can officially join Phecda, it will all depend on your performance. "
Because of this, even though Chen Jiahua's winter holiday was only seven days long, he felt it was more than enough.
"Don't think too highly of yourself when you return home during the holidays." The teacher's other words echoed in his heart. "Your uniform is impressive not because of you but because of people like Gu Jun and Xue Ba. When you wear it, take care."
With this in mind, Chen Jiahua seemed to wake up. He quickly adjusted his demeanor and walked to the side. He did not want to participate in the conversation between his mother and the shopkeeper.
Indeed, the reason why his uniform was so eye-catching was not because of him but because of people like Gu Jun and Xue Ba.
At that moment, the few girls found an opportunity to walk over. They asked with a smile, "Little brother, can I take a picture with you?"
The fragrance of the girls entered his nose. Chen Jiahua's heart raced. He was not a popular student at school and did not know how to court girls. This was the first time he had been in a situation like this. Therefore, he tried his best not to appear bashful. "I'm sorry, but our school rules do not allow us to take pictures together."
They were allowed to walk around in the school uniform but they had to pay attention to their appearance. In the age of the internet, the slightest mistake could lead to a scandal.
"Oh." The girls were disappointed. It was not easy to meet a Phecda student, there were only a few of them in the city. Was there really nothing to be gained?
Some of the girls asked for his autograph and WeChat, but that was even more impossible.
In the end, another girl came up with an idea. She stood far away and took a selfie with the Phecda student as the background.
