After the regular meeting, Matthew Cullen sat in the classroom for a long time. When almost all the people in the classroom were gone and the teaching building was almost empty, he packed up his books and slowly left the classroom.
For a Yuexia aristocrat who is strict and self-disciplined, this slightly casual attitude is very rare.
But he needs time and a slightly more independent place to think about the problem and what he should do next.
Earlier today, his cousin Sir Friedman brought him a message, asking him to go to the 3A club lounge in Fort Alpha to sit and chat after the regular meeting. Because the time was very sensitive, Matthew had to sort it out.
Check your recent words and deeds to make sure that you have not done anything that would cause other people to misunderstand you.
Fortunately, after introspection, he found that he was still cautious enough.
When leaving the teaching building, Matthew saw the monitor Jiang Yu. Although he was surprised as to why Jiang Yu was still near the teaching building so late, he didn't pay much attention to it.
Everyone has everyone's freedom, and everyone has everyone's troubles. He should focus on his own troubles now.
The shortcut from Jiuyou Academy to Alpha Castle is as bleak as ever.
Because the area is remote, the dead branches and vines hanging on the corridor seem to have not been cleaned for a long time. The breeze blows and makes a faint rustling sound, as if a squirrel is peeping in the bushes.
The portraits hanging on both sides of the corridor in Alfa Castle are much cleaner than the last time I came here. The copper sheets used for riveting on the outside of the picture frame shine in the firelight. Unlike the external changes, the old people in the portraits remain the same.
irritable and stubborn.
"Damn red robe, if you look at it again, it will stain my eyes!" An old man wearing a wig shouted at Matthew: "Who can bring me a basin of water?!"
"One generation is not as good as the last," another little old lady holding a cigarette pot complained. "One generation is not as good as the last. Now they let those red robes enter Alpha's castle!"
Complaints like this come and go, and Matthew is used to it.
He walked quietly and quickly through the world of these old people, and soon arrived in front of his cousin's lounge. The Alpha students he met along the way were all in a hurry, or running around holding banners and slogans,
Not many people made it difficult for the Cullen child in the red robe.
When he arrived at the lounge, Sir Friedman had just sent away a guest in gray robe and was covering the full-length mirror at the entrance of the lounge with a thin blanket.
"I don't know what kind of medicine it took. It has become more and more rude recently."
After noticing his cousin's curious yet polite eyes, Jazz explained: "I just asked the school's alchemist to check it, and nothing abnormal was found. In short, it's always good to cover it with a blanket first.
of."
"All full-length mirrors shut up under a blanket." Matthew Cullen agreed with a smile.
"Give me freedom! Or give me death!" the full-length mirror, which was not completely covered by the blanket, shouted at the top of her lungs.
Sir Friedman pulled hard and quickly used the blanket to completely seal the dressing mirror underneath. Then he breathed a heavy sigh of relief and unbuttoned the cuffs unaccustomedly.
"Amber light or green hornet?" Jazz walked behind the small bar in the lounge, raised the cup in his hand, and asked Matthew in a gesture.
This kind attitude and the soothing atmosphere in the lounge caught Matthew off guard.
He originally thought he was about to face heavier pressure.
"Pure blood is fine." Matthew stood in front of the sofa and replied slightly cautiously.
Sir Friedman shrugged, poured half a cup of blood into the cup in front of him, and added half a cup of amber light; the cup for Matthew was filled with a full cup of pure blood.
"If you want to drink something warm, the copper stove is over there." Jazz gestured to the other direction of the lounge with the hand holding the wine glass, and then added: "But I feel that in this restless season, this restless
Under such circumstances, drinking some cold blood can be more refreshing."
When the main course was about to be served, Matthew took a deep breath, straightened his back, and showed a standard smile on his face: "It's good if it cools the blood."
Jazz nodded with satisfaction.
"I came to you today because I want to hear your opinion." Friedman did not continue to talk in circles and directly stated what he meant: "The conflict between the two colleges has affected the image of the entire school in the wizarding world, affecting the image of the entire school in the wizarding world.
The teaching of the school is the foundation on which the first university stands in the wizarding world."
"Professors may have various ideas, but as a role model for young wizards, we cannot turn a blind eye to this."
"What are your thoughts on reconciling the differences between the two colleges?"
This question completely exceeded all Matthew Cullen's expectations. He originally thought that his cousin came to him to ask him to stand on the side of Alpha Academy, criticize Jiu's wrong education system and rigid teaching concepts, or to let him speak out.
Support the struggle of the Linzhong Lake murloc tribe.
Just like poor classmate Nicholas.
But to his surprise, Sir Friedman did not ask him to make the above-mentioned difficult choice, but gave him a surprising choice.
"Reconciling the conflicts between the two colleges??" Matthew held the wine glass and repeated his cousin's question, chewing every word in this sentence to make sure that he understood the same thing as what his cousin wanted to express.
mean.
The bright red blood was not mixed with any alcohol, and swayed leisurely in the cup, leaving a shallow layer on the wall, like the crystal pulp of grapes after peeling.
The young vampire was silent for a long time, and finally spoke, asking softly: "Is this the opinion of the Blood Club?"
"No," Jazz immediately shook his head: "This is just my opinion as a member of the First University."
Matthew sighed in disappointment.
For a moment, he almost thought that the sun was going to come out from the west. But even if the sun didn't come out from the west today, it certainly wasn't rising and setting normally.
Because Sir Friedman, the leader of the 3A club representing the most stubborn force in Alpha Academy, had just raised the possibility of a truce to a student from Jiuyou Academy.
Even though neither person has the final say on all this.
This is already a very magical thing.
"Do you have any plans?" Matthew Cullen's eyes showed a hint of excitement. If he can successfully connect the dots in this matter and bring peace and tranquility back to the two colleges, then he will become the common hero of both colleges.
Of course, this hero may be in quotation marks, but even so, it is an amazing achievement for a first-year student.
