Ten minutes later.
In the lounge, Huai Shi, Uncle Fang, Crow, and Fat Horse, who had come to join in the fun, also came with Beelzebub. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.
Horses could not speak, and in front of Crow, Beelzebub did not seem to know how to speak either.
He did not move and pretended to go offline.
Uncle Fang, on the other hand, could speak freely. If he really had any opinions or ideas, Huai Shi would definitely listen to him. Sometimes, she might even put his own wishes first. However, Fang Shu rarely expressed his opinions. Other than telling Huai Shi not to enter the kitchen …
He had even less thoughts about this invitation letter.
"Young Master, take your time to think. I'll go make supper."
Then he ran away …
Whatever decision he made was up to Huai Shi. Or rather, no matter what decision Huai Shi made, he would brainlessly agree — as long as it was not too outrageous.
Thus, the only person who could give Huai Shi advice was Crow.
"Why did they suddenly send me this letter?"
Huai Shi scratched her head in confusion. She raised her head and looked at the crow, as if asking him if he had any clues. "It doesn't make sense. The Ivory Tower is so big. Why would they need someone like me? Why would they send me a letter?"
"I think it would be strange if the Ivory Tower didn't value you."
Crow replied calmly, "Don't forget that the Ivory Tower is not only the most advanced research institution in the world, but also one of the few remaining Celestial genealogy bases in the entire territory. It's also the headquarters of the Road of Dusk and the Road of Divine Marrow. Why wouldn't they value a rising star in the same genealogy?
Moreover, as an educational institution with an excellent reputation, why would they let a student like you go? "
"You're right."
Huai Shi rubbed his chin and could not help but sigh. "After all, it's hard to find someone as powerful as me."
"Yes, yes."
Crow nodded in agreement, holding back his evil smile.
"Hmm?"
Huai Shi suddenly looked up and saw Crow's serious and solemn expression. He withdrew his gaze with some astonishment, and then … he suddenly looked up again.
In the end, he found that Crow's expression became more and more serious.
That was strange.
Huai Shi glanced at her suspiciously. "Is it really not your doing?"
Crow stared blankly for a moment before asking, "Why would you think that?"
Huai Shi's eyes became sharper and sharper.
"He actually didn't deny it?"
He narrowed his eyes. "So it's true?"
This bad thing, who was always thinking about the pocket money of the innocent young man, was going to cheat him again!
Crow, on the other hand, felt even more helpless. He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. "I admit that I did foresee this day, but I have to say …"
She paused for a moment and pointed the spear back at him. "This is mainly your fault."
"What?"
Huai Shi was stunned. "Why is it my fault? Even my breathing is wrong? "
"No one cares if you breathe in the cold air at home every day and increase global carbon emissions."
Crow shook her head. "Don't you know how much face you've gained for the Astronomy Society on Stellaris? Think about it, if it weren't for the people in the Astronomy Society's Asian Countermeasure Room leaking the news, how could there be the Judge Card? Isn't this to build momentum for you?
Let's talk about it in detail. Can you hide the fact that you used Olysses? Why didn't they ask you about it when they already had an idea after going through the list? Didn't they keep it a secret for you, understand your feelings, and not take the initiative to say it?
Since you didn't admit it and didn't show up, there's no way to openly record this great merit. Besides, you're still so young. You only turned 18 last month. Even if there's such a great merit, it's not easy to promote you. Being in charge of the Asian Countermeasure Room is probably a headache, right? "
"You mean, this is the arrangement of the Countermeasure Room?"
Huai Shi suddenly understood. "Arranged for me to go to school?"
"Figure out your current identity and your position. It's not to go to school, it's to teach."
Crow corrected him. "You're a gold medal fighter of the Astronomy Society, an official Calamity Musician, an Abyss Chef, and a registered Level Three Sublimator. If you go to school, who's qualified to teach you?
I guess the Ivory Tower is also having a headache over this. It's right to let you study, but you can't be a student. Otherwise, where's the face of the Directorate of Command?
When you're done with your tour of the Ivory Tower, you can logically arrange for your progress when you come back … Hey, if you ask me, this is a good idea. "
Crow stopped halfway and looked at Huai Shi's phone that lit up. "Hey, there's a call with good news."
It was Chai Fei.
After the phone call, Huai Shi fell into silence.
According to Chai Fei, the Ivory Tower was indeed the arrangement of the Directorate of Command. After all, Huai Shi was still too young. Otherwise, the other arrangements would not be so troublesome.
An 18-year-old inspector was already shocking enough.
If he was promoted to a position, on the one hand, he was too young to convince the public. On the other hand, he was really too young, had no experience, and even had no education.
That's right, education …
The Astronomy Society also paid attention to this.
Regardless of how much of an education there was, at least he couldn't be a high school dropout who didn't even go to college, right?
It was impossible to say that there was no place for him to go to college. How many borders and hell observation stations lacked this kind of strong-willed Sublimator who could fight?
But if this arrangement was really arranged, even if it looked like a promotion, who wouldn't know that he was sent here?
It was not suitable.
Anyway, according to Chai Fei, after a few years in the Ivory Tower, the rest of the things would be easy to do. There would be great improvements.
Don't worry, today's meeting has already adjusted the next job arrangement. Guess what? The second military officer of the Jinling Astronomy Society branch will be transferred in four years! It's just when you're about to finish your studies, isn't it a coincidence?
Okay, it's a coincidence, it's really a coincidence.
Logically speaking, this kind of arrangement was really clear. His mother had opened the door for him and understood everything.
It could be said that it was not thoughtful, not considerate, and not heavy responsibilities.
Even if he was a husky, he should be able to understand the deep expectations and trust of the organization.
And it also saved him a lot of trouble.
The road to heaven was already at his feet, and it was a version with a conveyor belt. As long as he stood on it, he could reach the destination by lying down …
But for some reason, even if Chai Fei intentionally or unintentionally hinted that she was testing Huai Shi on the phone, Huai Shi was still hesitant in his heart.
He didn't give her a clear answer.
He only said that he would think about it.
But after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't say it in detail.
Chai Fei also didn't rush him to make a decision. She only said that before September, if there were any problems, he could call her at any time.
The phone hung up.
Huai Shi lay on the sofa and stared blankly at the ceiling. He lowered his head and looked at the invitation letter on the table.
"You really don't want to go?" Crow asked.
"I don't know."
Huai Shi shook his head and scratched his messy hair. "I'll think about it again …"
He didn't say anything more. He threw the invitation letter on the table, got up, and went back to his room.
After taking a shower and brushing his teeth, he lay on the bed and closed his eyes. He simply didn't want to think about this mess and quickly fell asleep.
But when he was half-asleep, he couldn't help but open his eyes and look at the phone on the bedside table.
He wanted to make a call.
But who should he call?
What should he say?
He couldn't figure it out, so he closed his eyes again.
One night without words. Two nights without words.
In fact, there was nothing much to say in the next ten days.
There were no problems.
Ordinary and simple, Huai Shi finished the sprint before the exam, and then ushered in the college entrance exam that he once cared about so much.
Three days in a row.
He didn't secretly use the Astronomical Association's phone to cheat, nor did he look for answers in the Book of Destiny.
Huai Shi honestly answered with his own ability. Although he knew in his heart that if he continued like this, his results wouldn't be good … It could only be considered not bad.
The moment he put down his pen and walked out of the examination room, he couldn't help but look up at the sun above his head in the blazing afternoon sun.
He let out a long breath.
In a trance, it seemed as if a train roared past him, carrying something far away.
But when he looked back, he couldn't see anything.
Only the afternoon teaching building stood quietly in the dim yellow sunset, and the examinees were like a noisy tide of people, rushing toward him and wrapping him around them as they walked out of the door.
There was no chance to continue staying there.
Huai Shi looked back in disappointment, but he didn't see the figure he was looking for. He couldn't help but sigh.
"Student, student …"
The reporter with the cameraman came over excitedly and saw the young man who stood out among the crowd. He put the microphone to his mouth. "How did you do in the exam?"
"It was okay." Huai Shi scratched his head and thought for a while. "Anyway, I don't know how to do it, so I just answered casually."
Obviously, the reporter didn't expect such a frank answer. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood. "Were you too nervous?"
"Not really."
Huai Shi replied, "Compared to protecting the world, it's just so-so. It's just that I don't know how to do it. "
"…" The reporter was stunned. His expression couldn't help but twitch. He couldn't help but laugh. "Student, you're so humorous."
"Yeah."
Huai Shi also laughed and looked at the reporter in front of him. He suddenly raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder seriously. "So, you must live well and cherish every day!"
Without waiting for the reporter to ask any more questions, the young man waved his hand and turned to leave.
The reporter and cameraman looked at each other, not understanding where this chuunibyou came from.
In the crowd, Huai Shi picked up the phone.
"Hello? Huai Shi, are you done with the exam? "Fu Yi's voice came from the phone." Are Five Heis coming? Hurry up, or the phone will be snatched away! "
"Come, come, come. Today, I'll let you know what it means if the heavens didn't give birth to me, Little Peggy, it would be like a long night! "
After answering the phone, Huai Shi took a bicycle and ran away like it was flying.
The disappointment he felt just now had long been thrown into the trench prison.
Today's game had to be played today.
Tomorrow's matter could be dealt with tomorrow!
