Just when Zheng Qing and Jiang Yu visited Dr. Duzem and mentioned their newly opened small shop, someone in an office less than a kilometer away from the Institute of Abnormal Life also mentioned this issue.
It was an office at the north end of the first floor of the Jiuyou Academy office building.
The door of the office is very clean. There is no door god hanging on it, nor any other protective charms or magic patterns carved on it. It seems to be an ordinary red wooden door. Although there is a bronze plate hanging on the lintel, due to the light, the
The words are shrouded in dim shadows, making them blurry and unclear.
Set against the clean wooden door, the brass handle on the door is also very clean, shining in the dim light of the corridor.
The sun is not bright in the winter morning, and there is very little light that can shine into this corridor through the window at the end of the corridor. But more or less, there is always a faint layer of light cast on the floor, leaving a long and narrow path.
, as if traces were wrapped in a veil.
Then two shadows suddenly appeared in the halo, walking silently forward along the center line of the corridor, the shadows getting longer and longer as they moved forward.
The leader was a tall, gray-haired young wizard. His long robe seemed to have been starched and stretched straight over his body. Even the originally soft collar stood up high, almost covering his body.
The tip of the nose is covered.
Standing next to him was a blond Germanic man with a tall figure and a high nose. However, the large bags under his eyes and slightly shadowed eyelids made his image look dismal, and he was different from the companion standing next to him.
On the contrary, the wizard's robe was wrinkled and the corners of the robe were stained with a little mud, as if he had just traveled a long way.
"Thomas, you don't actually need to be in such a hurry. You can go back and rest for a while before reporting." The young wizard lowered his eyelids, his eyes slid over the tired face of his companion and the mud spots at the corners of his robe, and said softly: "At least
First change your clothes and take care of yourself."
"Old Yao is not Ms. Emma, he won't care about such details." His companion, Zheng Qing's former interviewer Thomas Assistant, twitched the corner of his mouth and showed a weak smile: "Wouldn't this make me look more attractive?
Are you dedicated..."
Zhang Yu fell silent immediately.
For a moment, the corridor fell into silence again. Apart from the rustling footsteps of the two people, there was only the faint and strange interrogation sound of the parrot on duty coming from the front hall of the office building.
But as the two stood in front of the red wooden door, even the parrot's voice could not be heard.
"Oh, right." When Zhang Yu was about to knock on the door, he suddenly thought of something and moved his hand away from the door, reached into his robe, touched it, and took out a red and black card.
, handed it to Thomas: "This is an invitation sent to you by your student. It seems to invite you to attend the opening ceremony of some store... You were not there a few days ago, so I signed it for you. Hilda from the office also
Received an identical invitation."
"My student?" Thomas raised his eyebrows in surprise: "There are no fixed classes for me this semester, right? Where are the students?"
"A first-year male student from Jiuyou College named Zheng Qing." Zhang Yu thought for a few seconds and replied, "If I remember correctly, Lao Yao arranged for you to be his interviewer.
Right."
"Oh, it's that kid." Thomas suddenly realized, nodded, and raised the red card in his hand.
Through the faint light coming from the glass window at the end of the corridor, he could vaguely see the words 'D&K' and 'It is scheduled to be December 20th' on the card.
"December 20th, it's next Saturday." Thomas murmured.
"Yes, it's the day before the winter solstice... maybe you can bring a plate of dumplings as a gift." Zhang Yu smiled softly.
At this moment, the red wooden door in front of them opened with a loud bang, and then a rude voice came from the room: "How long do you two bastards plan to stay outside the door?! I came to the office early in the morning.
, I’m not just sitting here listening to your chat!”
The two teaching assistants looked at each other in confusion, laughed dryly, and hurriedly walked into the room.
As their shadows disappeared behind the threshold, the red wooden door was swung back with force and closed tightly again.
In line with the color of Jiuyou College, the main color of Professor Yao's office has always been bright red.
A dark red carpet, a tall mahogany bookcase, a maroon desk, and a few soft red leather chairs - the only difference from the last time Thomas came was that there was a pot of red leaves on the desk today.
plant.
"That's a pot of deep valley flame reticulated grass, a Christmas gift from a certain classmate." Sensing the sight of the teaching assistant, Professor Yao said angrily: "Maybe I should change to another college to be the dean... I don't know why.
, everyone seems to think that I like red. Can you believe that I have collected nearly a hundred red scarves this year? This is not the year of my birth year!"
"You could donate those scarves to the Juggler's House on the North Side," Thomas suggested with a smile.
"That's a good idea." Old Yao snorted and pushed the small box of tobacco on the table to the edge of the table. At the same time, he moved a red and black card into the drawer.
Thomas blinked.
"Is that an invitation from Zheng Qing? Did he also send you an invitation?" He probably thought it was a very interesting thing, and couldn't help but crane his neck, as if he wanted to get a better look.
"Hmm, he's a very interesting little guy, but he's just not very restful." Lao Yao chewed his pipe and sat down on the large seat behind him. At the same time, he stretched out his fingers and tapped the red and black invitation.
His tone was a little helpless: "Opening a store?! It's just a joke... Students should seriously stay in school and learn knowledge, no matter how to open a store!"
"Restless? That's not the case...I remember he was a very well-behaved child." Maybe Thomas felt that Lao Yao's evaluation was a bit biased, so he couldn't help but add another sentence: "Maybe this is the generation gap. Today's young people
Unlike us back then, we don’t necessarily like to put all our energy into study and life.”
"If you were safe, you wouldn't have received a punishment notice from the school working committee right after school started!" Old Yao blew out two puffs of smoke from his nose, like an angry fire dragon.
"Well, the school working committee gave him a very good evaluation." Zhang Yu, who had been standing silently aside, suddenly said, "In the practice reports in recent weeks, the school working committee gave them excellent evaluations."
"You two...do you have any awareness of talking to your superiors?!" Lao Yao sighed deeply, took another heavy drag on his pipe, and muttered: "It's really your own fault...don't talk nonsense anymore, Zhang
Yu will report first and talk about the winter hunting arrangements. Thomas, you can take advantage of this time to relax on the sofa in the back for a while."
