Beep beep … Beep beep …
Suddenly, his Watch Terminal beeped. Garon raised his hand to take a look. It was Nono's father, Londo, sending him a sum of money for this month's living expenses. It was exactly one thousand points.
He frowned.
Nonosiva's family was already poor. After paying for a semester's tuition, they still had to pay for his monthly living expenses. The family was even more strained. His brother and sister even gave up on their studies to reduce their expenses so that Nono could finish his studies at Blackboard Academy.
It could be said that the entire family placed all their hopes on Nono. Usually, the family was frugal and could not even bear to eat a bit of natural meat. They mostly ate synthetic food.
After thinking for a while, Garon walked towards the meeting place while calling Nono's father, Londo.
The call went through immediately.
"I can only squeeze out this much. Nono, you should be more frugal. There's really no other way … "Londo's tired old face appeared on the Terminal. His eyes were bloodshot. He had been working overtime for two days without sleeping. This was all his salary. Recently, the company was not doing well, so he had no other choice. He could let his wife take care of all the household expenses. Also, he needed to buy medicine for his grandmother's illness every month. There were five people in the family who needed to eat and drink. Clothing, food, housing, and transportation all had to be spent. The heavy pressure of living made it hard for him to breathe.
Garon did not expect that his call would be mistaken as asking for money. It seemed like the old Nonosiva would not call for no reason. Once he called, it must have been for a lot of money. That was why his father Londo was so helpless.
Looking at the old and tired Londo on the screen, although he was not his real father, Garon still felt a little touched. He would just treat it as a reward for taking over their son's body.
He opened his mouth, but in the end, he could not call out the word 'father'. After all, his real age was probably much older than the other person.
"I don't want money. I have enough money here. You don't have to give me any money in the future. Just keep it for yourself." He took a breath and explained.
"You don't want money? Your Academy's expenses are so high. How can you live without money? "Londo's mouth was slightly agape. "Don't worry. Your brother has also found a job recently. He only got his income this month. He was planning to transfer his money to you tomorrow. I'll get him to transfer it to you now."
He quickly called the others. Soon, Garon's terminal beeped again. Another 300 utility points had been transferred to his account. The sender was Baylon, Nono's younger brother, Alan.
Garon sighed in his heart as he recalled the timid look of his younger brother, Allen. To think that he would actually take the initiative to go out and work for his older brother's expenses in the academy. To be honest, he was somewhat touched. Although Nonosiva's life in the academy could not be said to be rich, at least he did not have to worry about basic necessities. He enjoyed the admiration and respect of his classmates. Being able to accumulate 8,000 to 9,000 Universal Units was obviously not a joke. On the other hand, his family couldn't even afford to buy natural food every day. They only ate the cheapest synthetic food. Now, even his brother, who didn't go to school, had to go out to work to provide for his expenses.
He could feel Nono's attitude towards his family from his memories.
Shame, disgust, and he did not want to go home at all.
He was ashamed that he had such a poor family, so much so that he loathed his family. Compared to other students, he didn't even dare to attend many gatherings because the expenses were too high. He also didn't dare to participate in many excursions because the expenses were too high. Even the training methods he used were free of charge from the academy, and most of the students had to buy the most suitable training methods for themselves outside.
Under all these comparisons, he eventually developed a hatred for his family. Usually, other than asking for money, he basically did not contact his family.
His family was also one of the main reasons why he was so quiet in the academy. Therefore, only Aier and Mina, two of his closest classmates, were close to him. However, before he was hospitalized, they didn't know about Nono's family situation.
"Don't worry." Garon explained, "I found a way to train myself and earn some money in the academy. My family doesn't have to worry about my living expenses. It's true. "
Londo still seemed to be in disbelief.
Garon simply used the terminal to quickly transfer 2000 Universal Units to him.
"The extra 1000 Universal Units will be my allowance to my family. Don't let Lon go out to work, let him go to school."
In the terminal, Londo seemed to be completely stunned. He could not react for a moment. Nono, who had always asked for money from his family, was actually transferring money to his family for the first time?
"Nono … You … You're not going to do anything bad, are you …"
"Of course not!" Garon replied affirmatively. "Don't worry, I really found a part-time job in the academy. I can earn some money and train my studies." He quickly transferred another 1000 Universal Units to his brother Lon.
Now that he had earned more than 10,000 Universal Units on the Battlenet, this amount of money could be earned in a few rounds. He only earned a few thousand Universal Units in the lottery rounds.
If it was not for the fact that he needed money to buy the White Peacock Stones, he would have transferred more money to his family.
"Don't worry, I really don't need you to transfer money anymore." Garon replied affirmatively again.
On the other side of the terminal, Londo seemed to believe him a little.
"Don't let a part-time job affect your studies." Seeing that his eldest son didn't want his family's support, he was worried but at the same time, the pressure on him was greatly reduced. In order to pay for Blackboard Academy's exorbitant tuition fees and Nono's huge expenses every month, his family had already been frugal to the point where they couldn't be more frugal. If they could really save some money on this, it would greatly improve the family's income and expenses.
"Alright, I'll hang up first. I'll give Lon a call."
"Mm, take care of yourself and study hard in the academy." Londo quickly reminded.
"Got it."
Garon pressed the button to hang up. He had already arrived at the agreed waiting place. He stood by the street and dialed his brother Lon's personal terminal.
After just one ring, the other side immediately picked up.
"It's Lon's brother from Blackboard Academy!" "Let me see! Let me see! "" His brother is from Blackboard Academy?! That's amazing! "" My cousin is only from Swordfish Academy, but he's so arrogant all the time. "
"Lon, your brother is from Blackboard Academy. When are you going to introduce him to me?" There was a little girl's voice.
Lon's face appeared on the terminal's screen. His face was reserved and proud as he looked at the terminal. There seemed to be quite a lot of people around him. There were the voices of young people of the same age as well as the voices of adults. It was quite noisy.
"Brother, why did you call me?" His voice was very soft and still sounded a little timid. "And … And I think I saw you transfer money to me just now? …"
Garon frowned slightly.
"Who told you to go work? Go back immediately! Our family doesn't lack your money. "His tone was very heavy, which scared Alan. Alan's face turned pale at once.
"I was the one who transferred the money to you just now. I earned it from my part-time job. Go back and prepare. Go back to school immediately! Remember to bring the suspension papers you did before! " Since he had taken over Nono's body, he might as well repay his family on behalf of Nono who had disappeared.
"But … But …" Before Lon could finish his sentence, he was immediately interrupted by Garon.
"No buts. Go back and do the paperwork to go back to school. We don't need you to work to earn money." Garon's face darkened. Lon was only thirteen years old and was still in high school. If he did not go back to school now, there would be no turning back once he passed the age limit.
On the screen, Lon looked like he was about to cry. However, he was still scolded by Garon and asked to go back to school immediately. He did not expect Lon to muster up the courage to retort. Although it was only a short sentence, Garon could see that Lon seemed to be getting along well with the people around his workplace. He really did not want to leave.
"If you really don't want to leave, then work part-time. Like me, go work part-time after school." Garon suggested. Looking at Lon's teary eyes, he did not insist on him giving up his job in the end. "If you need money in the future, just tell me. I have a lot of money now. Don't worry."
"Oh … Oh …"
"Okay, I'm hanging up." After ending the call, Garon raised his head and saw the car owner uncle from last time looking left and right as he walked towards him. Garon was standing at the corner of a street with fewer people. He did not seem to have noticed him. Garon was about to walk over to greet him when a soft sound came from behind him. A gust of wind blew towards the back of his head.
Without any hesitation, Garen instantly turned around and threw his elbow forward. His elbow followed the powerful force of his turn and smashed backwards.
Bam!
One of the students was hit in the head. He was also wearing the Blackboard Academy uniform, but he was holding a piece of black cloth in his hand. It was probably the piece of cloth that he wanted to cover Garon's head with.
This person's head was hit hard and he staggered back a few steps dizzily. He did not recover at all.
When the other two boys saw this, they didn't expect this to happen. They immediately growled and rushed up, wanting to fight. Both of them punched towards Garon's head from the left and right respectively.
Garon moved his body slightly and dodged the two fists. His right knee slammed forward. With a muffled bang, one of them fell.
The other person's fist missed. Seeing the one on the ground, sweat started to form on his forehead.
"This guy has trained before!" He shouted at the person who had just recovered. "How …" Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a pain in his stomach. His whole body floated back five to six steps and he could not stand up.
The last person stared at Garon with cold sweat all over his body. He did not know whether to attack or retreat.
"Who told you to ambush me?" Garon asked calmly. Even though this body of his was still weak in all aspects, he could easily take care of these little fellows with just his combat experience alone.
When fighting, he used too much strength and did not hold back. With the huge inertia and the inability to change his moves, although this move was strong enough, it would be full of flaws as long as it was dodged. He could easily take care of his opponent with a light hit.
"Ah!!" The last person screamed and turned to run. However, before he could run far, Garon caught up to him and kicked him in the back of his leg. He could not stand properly and fell down.
Garon grabbed the person's wrist terminal and checked it. He then gave each of them another kick before leaving.
At this time, there were already many people standing around to watch the show. The uncle who drove the car looked at him with a stunned expression. He swallowed his saliva and looked at the three students on the ground.
"Don't worry about them. Let's go somewhere else." Garon waved his hand.
"Okay, okay."
