Isriel.
The rumbling train stopped at the platform, and a large number of people poured out of the carriage.
Among the crowd, a group of burly men in brown windbreakers was particularly eye-catching.
They were all big and round, and seemed to have hidden weapons. Their faces were filled with an unapproachable aura.
Even though the station was crowded, people still subconsciously avoided them. Even the pickpockets did not dare to come close to do business.
"Boss, we're here."
The scar-faced man looked around and grinned.
"Well, this is a good place. There are many young people."
Chung Shen-soo nodded and led the team out of the station.
He had to have a reason for suddenly coming to Israel's place. The excuse he told his subordinates and family was that he was here to open a bar and investigate the city's moonshine market.
At this time, he took a deep breath of fresh air and smiled. "Scar Face … what do you see?"
Maule scratched his head and revealed an honest smile. "There are a lot of people … and their clothes look neat. That means they're rich!"
"That's right, and it's all young people here! The more young people there are, the more popular the alcohol is! "
Chung Shen-soo laughed and stopped a few rental carriages. "Let's go, we'll find a place to stay first. Then you guys go find a suitable bar. This time, you're going to be the boss here. As for me, I have some personal matters … "
…
A few hours later.
Chung Shen-soo wore a black windbreaker and a black woolen bowler hat. Following the address given by Julie, he arrived in front of a building.
It was already year 668 of the Federation Calendar. The New Year's celebration was over, and it was time for all the major universities to start school.
"Xavier Advanced Technician Training School?
"The name sounds like a pheasant."
He complained. Looking at the building in front of him that looked like a school, he did not see any gatekeepers.
Moreover, the area of the school was very narrow. There was only one teaching building, and on both sides were residential houses and shopping malls.
Rather than calling it a school, it was more like some kind of cram school, and the kind that was about to fail.
"Yes. Ever since the Mesopotamian Federation underwent steam mechanization, the demand for literate workers and advanced craftsmen has increased. Therefore, some advanced technical schools have been set up. They only teach ordinary literacy courses and professional skills. The semester is much shorter than usual, but they are still very popular. They are regarded as the first choice for students from middle-class families …"
Silently recalling the relevant content, Chung Shen-soo walked into the building.
On both sides of the cement passage, there were many large classrooms. The nameplates above clearly wrote "Madam Jenny's Dance Classroom," "Neil's Accelerated Typist Training Class," and so on. Chung Shen-soo was stunned. "What is this? Outsourcing the school? Which school did Julie recommend? "
"Hello, how can I help you?"
At this time, a slightly chubby young man wearing round glasses walked over and said to Chung Shen-soo, "The registration point for the training class is in Classroom 102, and the rental service is in the Miscellaneous Office in Classroom 104 …"
"I'm looking for Professor Davis."
Although he was somewhat disappointed in this sect, Chung Shen-soo still said.
"You're looking for the principal?" The chubby young man pushed up his glasses and looked at Chung Shen-soo up and down. "I'll take you there. He should still be in his office! Oh, and you can call me Jason! "
"Levi, Levi Mojito!"
Chung Shen-soo smiled and told him his name. He followed Jason up the stairs.
When he stepped on the last step, his expression changed slightly. He felt the power of a fixed ritual.
"It seems to be a kind of expulsion, or to make ordinary people subconsciously not want to pass through. Is it a kind of barrier for mortals?"
Only now did he feel that this place was a little like the Mysterious Society.
Jason looked at his slightly moved face and nodded to himself. He took Chung Shen-soo and knocked on the door of an office.
Mottled sunlight shone through the glass window, illuminating a large amount of dust in the void.
What entered Chung Shen-soo's eyes seemed to be an ordinary teacher's office.
There were all kinds of books and lesson plans on the old wooden desk. There was also a small blackboard next to it, on which some lines were drawn with chalk.
Behind the high pile of books was an old man with gray hair, deep wrinkles, and gold-rimmed glasses.
At this time, he was staring at a newspaper and muttering something to himself.
"Function? No … this seems to be a stock graph! "
Chung Shen-soo glanced at the small blackboard and then at the newspaper in the old man's hand. The letters "The Economist" were clearly printed on it.
"Ahem, Principal Davis, someone is looking for you."
Jason knocked on the desk helplessly.
"Oh?"
Davis raised his head and looked at Chung Shen-soo with his cloudy eyes.
Chung Shen-soo sighed inwardly. He felt that this old man was not strong at all. If he took out his revolver, it seemed that he could kill him with one shot.
But he was here to read, not to study.
He took out Julie's letter of introduction. "Professor Davis, this is a letter of introduction from Ms. Julie. Well … I want to study here for a while."
"Uh-huh?"
Davis adjusted his glasses, opened the letter of introduction, glanced at it casually, threw it into the junk pile, and snapped his fingers.
Snap!
A spiritual wall suddenly appeared in the surroundings.
"You are also a follower of the Blackblood Master?"
He looked at Chung Shen-soo, and his expression became serious.
"Supreme bloodline!"
Chung Shen-soo made a gesture from the Transmutation Blood.
At the same time, he silently evaluated Davis' strength in his heart. "Well, as I guessed before, 'Transcendent' is at most, how sad …"
"Very good. Our Five Rings School has a very long history, and the large library in the school is also very famous among many schools. Some scholars will even come to borrow books …"
Davis said slowly, and at the same time, he secretly rubbed his fingers.
This kind of attitude reminded Chung Shen-soo of profiteers, and he felt that the two were inexplicably similar.
Snap!
To deal with this kind of person, he chose the most straightforward way, and smashed a stack of US dollars on the desk.
"No problem, I will enter today!" Davis stared straight at the thick stack of US dollars and said without hesitation.
"I want to borrow the library."
Chung Shen-soo only wanted to read books, and if this school was too lousy, it would not be a problem to leave after reading it.
"The library, ah. It requires special permission, and for a mysterious person who has just entered …"
Davis hesitated for a moment, and then saw another stack of US dollars on the desk, and his expression immediately changed. "No problem, I will issue a special pass for you!"
…
"Professor Davis, has it always been like this?"
Asked Chung Shen-soo as he followed Jason out of the office.
"Since you are also a member of the school, I will not hide it from you, he is my teacher …" Jason smiled bitterly. "Our Five Rings School is only a small school, and my teacher was very obsessed with stocks when they first rose. Because of several bad investments, he was saddled with huge debts, so he had to rent out part of the school's real estate to make money … Alas, even so, he is quite addicted to financial games … In fact, if it were not for the existence of the Special Bureau, my teacher would have cursed the vampires who caused him to lose his fortune."
