"Wake up, Ugly Duckling. We're here. If you don't wake up, I'm going to set you on fire," Amy threatened in a low voice as she walked up and pinched Ugly Duckling's chin.
"Meow!" Ugly Duckling's eyes widened, and it almost jumped out of Meg's hands. It quickly focused on Amy, and shook its head to indicate that it was awake.
"Amy, carry it." Meg handed Ugly Duckling to Amy with a smile, and then took down the thermos and the Yangzhou fried rice hanging on the handlebars. He looked at his watch. It took him almost half an hour to walk from the restaurant to the entrance of Chaos School, but it only took him five minutes today. The increase in speed brought about efficiency.
The temperature of the Yangzhou fried rice is just right, but the tofu pudding … Meg looked at the thermos in his hand. The tofu pudding had probably fallen apart during the vigorous exercise just now, but it shouldn't affect the taste too much. Anyway, he still had to take the money.
"But if this bicycle is used for short-distance takeout, it would be a good choice." Meg raised an eyebrow. He thought of the scene of riders in yellow and green vests delivering deliveries on bicycles, and his expression became a little strange.
As for those who needed to travel longer distances, perhaps he could find some abject knights to serve as delivery men on horseback. That way, a complete delivery network could be set up.
"Forget it. Let's not think about that for now. The restaurant is busy enough now." Meg shook his head with a smile. He took Amy's little hand, and said, "Let's go to class." They walked toward the school gate.
"Outsiders are not allowed in the school." The orc raised his hand to signal Meg to stop. He was a little vigilant. This guy had run into the school from nowhere last time. This time, he had to keep a close eye on him. He couldn't let him in so easily.
"Father, let's sneak in through that hole." Amy looked at the orc with a little fear. She tugged at Meg's clothes, and whispered. She had been kicked out by this orc several times before, and was a little traumatized.
"Children who are not of age are not allowed to go to school. This little girl is still too young." The old man glanced at Amy and shook his head. In his heart, he had already rejected the possibility of the two of them entering the school. In the end, he added, "Also, pets are not allowed on campus. This is a rule set by the headmaster."
Meg gently placed his hand on Amy's head, indicating for her not to be nervous. Then, he took out a small green card from his pocket and handed it to the orc. He smiled and said, "I'm here to send my child to school. Today is her first day of school. Teacher Crassus said that I can use this card to enter and leave the school. May I know which direction is the Magic Academy?"
"Teacher Crassus?" The orc and the old man's faces were filled with confusion. For a moment, they couldn't remember that there was such a teacher in the school. When they took the green card and looked at it, their expressions changed.
There were only three words written on the card: "Pass", and a name was written at the bottom right corner: Novan.
It was a very simple card, but because of the name at the bottom right corner, it was not simple at all.
The two of them suddenly recalled that the white-bearded old man at the school gate yesterday afternoon had also come to school early in the morning. They remembered that the headmaster had given him a green pass before he left yesterday. They didn't think that it would end up in Meg's hands.
This person's identity is definitely not simple! That was the first thought that flashed through their minds. They immediately looked at Meg and Amy in a different light.
Even though the headmaster was usually very amiable in the school, everyone knew that he was the only person in Chaos City who dared to challenge and confront the city lord and the lord of the city. However, that old man from yesterday was completely treating him like a senior.
"The Magic Academy is on the left side of the school gate. Go all the way to the end. Please keep your pass well. You can send your child in now." The orc looked at Meg with a smile as he handed the pass back to Meg. His attitude was completely different from before. He didn't seem to be fawning over Meg. Instead, he seemed more like one of his own.
"Hmm? We can go through the gate today? " Amy's eyes lit up, and a surprised smile appeared on her little face. In the past, she had always snuck into the school through that small hole. She had always envied her brothers and sisters for being able to enter the school through the main gate. She didn't think that she would be able to do so today.
"Alright, thank you." Meg nodded with a smile as he put away the pass. He took Amy's little hand and prepared to go through the gate.
"I'm sorry, pets are not allowed to enter Chaos School." The orc blocked their way again as he looked at Ugly Duckling in Amy's arms.
"That's the pass." Meg turned over the green card in his hand. Judging from the two's expressions, it was most likely issued by some important figure in Chaos School.
"The pass was issued by the principal, but the rules were also set by the principal. The principal said that the school rules take precedence, so your cat can't enter the school," the orc said with a serious expression, neither servile nor overbearing.
Meg was a little surprised that this orc wasn't willing to negotiate at all. He was a very principled and law-abiding person. Furthermore, the owner of the card was the principal of Chaos School. He was an interesting person. It was rare to see a principal who would put the school first.
"Alright, then I hope you can look after my car and my kitten. Thank you." Meg didn't want to pester him. There was nothing wrong with the rules. There were only children in the school. Ugly Duckling wasn't aggressive, but it was a different story if it was a large dog.
"We will ensure their safety." The orc nodded solemnly, and his attitude toward Meg softened a lot. This was a reasonable person.
Meg looked at Amy, and said, "Amy, put Ugly Duckling in the basket first. It can't accompany you to class. It will wait for you at home with me."
"Alright." Amy nodded obediently. She tiptoed and put Ugly Duckling in the basket of the bicycle. She patted Ugly Duckling's head, and said seriously, "Ugly Duckling, you have to be good at home and listen to Father."
"Let's go." Meg held Amy's little hand and walked into the school.
"Meow ~" Ugly Duckling stuck its little head out of the basket and looked at Amy's back pitifully.
Amy walked a few steps, and then stopped. She turned back to look at Ugly Duckling, and said, "Be good. I'll let you eat two bowls of tofu pudding when I come back today, and you don't have to run."
"Meow, meow!" Ugly Duckling's eyes lit up immediately, and it nodded happily.
"Communication between foodies is indeed so simple and direct." Meg shook his head with a smile, and then walked in with Amy.
