When it was late August, the Chinese LPL's summer playoffs had entered the most intense stage. However, Shanghai's summer had come to an end.
The heat that had filled Shanghai for the entire summer had gradually dissipated, and the air began to feel cool and refreshing like autumn.
On the 28th, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics ushered in the day when the freshmen would report.
As one of Shanghai's leading national key universities, recognized as one of the "211" and "985" universities, Shanghai University of Finance & Economics's main campus was located in Yangpu University City, adjacent to several well-known key universities such as Fudan University, Tongji University, and the Second Military University. Whether it was in Shanghai or the entire coastal area of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, it had a resounding reputation.
Being able to be admitted to such a national key university was something that the college entrance examination students should be proud of.
The main campus of Shanghai Finance University covered an area of hundreds of acres. In front of the campus gate was the school's name in flamboyant calligraphy. Looking in from the gate, one could easily see the tall green trees on both sides of the boulevard and the vague shadows of teaching buildings in the distance.
The lawn was like a carpet, the birds were singing, and the flowers were fragrant. Young students were sitting on the benches in twos and threes, either chatting and laughing, or concentrating on reading books. The whole campus was filled with a youthful, calm, and scholarly atmosphere.
Because it was the day that freshmen reported to Shanghai Finance University, the whole campus seemed to be livelier than usual.
An eye-catching red banner had been put up at the gate, brimming with enthusiasm to welcome the new students. Under the banner, there was already a bustling scene of people.
Parents came to report with their children carrying bags of all sizes.
Or maybe the local freshmen rode their own bicycles and took the subway to come here with light luggage.
The parents were all looking around, feeling extremely honored and proud. The freshmen, on the other hand, were looking left and right, sizing up the campus where they would spend the next four years of their lives, or simply looking for beautiful seniors or handsome seniors. Their faces were all filled with curiosity.
Qiu Le, who was also a freshman at the University of Finance and Economics, was a native of Shanghai. He had spent most of his time playing League of Legends in secret, but he was lucky enough to pass the college entrance examination. His family was overjoyed when he joined the University of Finance and Economics.
That was why Qiu Le's parents insisted on coming over to help with moving things and tidying up the dormitory.
"Sigh, I told you guys that you didn't have to come …"
"I didn't bring much with me. I can carry them to the dormitory later. I don't need your help at all."
Qiu Le tried his best to persuade his parents.
"Alright, alright. We've already sent him to the door and taken a photo with him …"
"Why don't you go back first?"
According to the rules of Shanghai Finance, freshmen could choose to live on campus or not. Generally speaking, if one was a local student in Shanghai, there was no need for him to live in a dormitory if his or her home was not far away. He or she could just choose to live on campus. Perhaps it would be more convenient for him or her to avoid the risk of not getting along with his or her roommates.
But Qiu Le did not think so.
Although he was a native of Shanghai and his home was close to the university, he had made up his mind to live in a dormitory from the very beginning.
His parents couldn't bear to see him, an only child, squeeze into a dormitory with other students. They tried to persuade him, but Qiu Le firmly rejected them.
Live at home?
Are you kidding me?
During his three years in high school, he had been tightly controlled by his parents and had almost no room for freedom. Now that he had finally entered university, he was like a bird that had flown out of its cage and finally welcomed the free world. How could he possibly go back to the cage and stay there?
Qiu Le's plan was very well thought out. Anyway, as long as he left home, he would no longer be restricted by all kinds of rules and regulations. He would be able to fly freely in the university dormitory. After that, he would be able to stay up all night if he wanted to. He would be able to laze around in bed if he wanted to. He would finally have a lot of time to play ranked every day.
Life like this was simply too blissful!
Just thinking about it made Qiu Le's eyes sparkle.
As for the so-called getting along with his roommates, Qiu Le wasn't particularly worried. He was the kind of person who liked to get along with others, and he was confident that he could get along well with his future roommates. At the very least, it would be better than listening to his parents' nagging at home every day.
Moreover, it would be even better if his roommates also liked to play League of Legends.
At that time, their dormitory would be able to play together and the whole dormitory would collectively play all night to get points. That feeling would be more exciting than playing solo.
In short …
After finally coaxing his parents away, Qiu Le, who was carrying a large suitcase, stood on the boulevard of the campus. He greedily took a deep breath of the free and fresh air. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and screamed at the top of his lungs, full of pride, "You're the one who's going to die!"
"New world!"
"I'm coming!!!"
…
In front of the freshmen registration office of the School of Finance, Qiu Le smiled enthusiastically and tried to get close to several senior sisters and seniors. He especially made several of the senior sisters, who were above average, smile. After signing in, Qiu Le took the dormitory key and carried his suitcase to his future dormitory building while humming a song.
He took the elevator all the way to the fifth floor and found dormitory 504 according to the number on the key. Qiu Le found that the door was not locked, so he directly pushed the door open and walked in.
At first glance, the environment of the dormitory was quite clean. There were four beds, and they were all configured with an upper bed and a lower table. It was basically in line with the dormitory photos he found on the school forum. In the future, when he played League of Legends, he could just put his laptop on his table. It was convenient.
Qiu Le was not the first to arrive at the dormitory.
At this moment, there was already a tall man in dormitory 504 tidying up his bed. He turned around and saw Qiu Le walking in. The tall man greeted him enthusiastically,
"Hey, you're also in dormitory 504?"
"You're quite early. I'm in bed 3. I'm almost done. Do you have any luggage? I can help you!"
His attitude was quite enthusiastic.
Qiu Le was relieved to meet such a passionate person. After chatting for a while, they found out that the roommate in bed number three was called Shen Zhuang. He was from Shandong. He was a typical burly man from Shandong. He was 1.85 meters tall and had a simple and honest personality. He treated people with sincerity.
More importantly …
After a little probing, Qiu Le was overjoyed to find out that his roommate in bed 3 was also a fellow League of Legends player.
"I'm in Ionia in Division 1, but my skill is average. I'm only in the Gold Tier. I can't make it to the top no matter what."
Speaking of this, Shen Zhuang seemed a little embarrassed.
Qiu Le, on the other hand, patted his chest loudly.
"It's fine!"
"With this bro here, it'll be easy to carry you to the top!"
Qiu Le wasn't bluffing. He had been playing League of Legends since the end of the S1 season. Even though he hadn't reached the Master or King divisions yet, he was still a veteran player in the Diamond divisions. Taking Shen Zhuang, who was in the Gold division, as a teammate was a piece of cake for him.
Shen Zhuang was also quite excited when he found out that Qiu Le was in the Diamond Tier. The two had a common topic and immediately got together to have a heated discussion.
Right at that moment, the sound of approaching footsteps came from outside Room 504.
At the same time, a voice came from outside the door. It seemed to be a phone call.
"Hello?"
"Sister Jianxue, I'm here."
"We're in the dormitory, we're in the dormitory. The freshmen in front got their keys after registering. Military training starts tomorrow."
"Oh, right. We'll have to clean up the bed later."
"Huh?"
"No need, I'm not a child. I can handle it myself. You continue with your training. I don't think I'll be home for dinner tonight. That's all for now. Bye —"
The call ended.
Inside the dormitory, Qiu Le and Shen Zhuang's eyes were attracted to the door.
The next moment, the door was pushed open from the outside. A head poked in and looked around. His eyes fell on the two people in the dormitory.
"Oh, this is dormitory 504, right?"
Lin Feng waved his hand innocently at his future roommates.
