He was squatting at the foot of the table to catch his breath because of a stomachache.
A few minutes ago, because of the words of the little stick figure on the white paper, he laughed inexplicably, with tears streaming down his face. He laughed so much that he changed from sitting at the table to lying on the table, and finally slipped on the table.
Under the table.
Maybe it's not so funny after all.
Now, the Jamaican man standing at the door of classroom 201 in the west of the main building is looking around with an earnest look, hoping to find him as soon as possible.
"I'm looking for classmate Zheng Qing." The black man showed his white teeth.
This sentence blew through the classroom like a strong wind.
"He's looking for Zheng Qing!" Many people were chanting and looking around.
Freshmen at Jiuyou College are very familiar with this name.
As one of the nine public-sponsored students this year, Zheng Qing made a sensation when he silently revealed all the thousands of characters in the grading test of the Talisman class.
With the help of some senior students, some deeds related to him gradually spread, such as suppressing a rampaging monster in Four Seasons Square, or confronting the banshee Nikita on the special admission plane.
For various reasons, freshmen from other colleges have some impressions of this name.
"Is Zheng Qing here?" a student from Alpha College shouted.
"Here he comes, he comes!" The two Alpha students sitting in the front row of Zheng Qing hurriedly stood up, cleared an open space, and said quickly: "He is here... behind us!"
Eyes from all directions suddenly gathered around him.
These gazes may contain curiosity, some may be mixed with a little malice, and some may be full of speculation. They are complex and full of variety.
Under this heavy pressure, Xiao Xiao finally put down the notebook in his hand, stretched out his hand, and forcefully pulled out his roommate who had slipped under the table.
Admittedly, Xiao Xiao could continue to fiddle with his notebook without a care in the eyes of dozens of freshmen.
But even he must consider the meaning of the name 'Augustus'.
This name represents all the students of Alpha Academy.
He is as unruly as Mike King Soprano and as arrogant as Friedman Black Cullen. Even though he is talented and powerful, he is still shrouded in the shadow of this name and has no intention of disobedience.
A new student should show a certain amount of respect when facing this name.
Even though he is Jiuyou's student.
Zheng Qing struggled to crawl out from under the table.
Maybe it's because of the uneasiness of being in the spotlight, maybe because of the embarrassment of being called by someone's name, maybe it's just because I've been squatting for a long time, and my blood is boiling.
Zheng Qing's face turned red.
He pulled at his somewhat wrinkled robe, patted the dust off the corners of his robe, took a few deep breaths, raised his head, and looked at the stranger at the door.
"Are you looking for me?" His voice was loud and abrupt.
Daley III stood still and did not move. He looked at the young public-funded student not far away with great interest. It was difficult to judge the specific expression on his dark face.
Two stocky figures squeezed through the crowd and stood behind Zheng Qing, folding their arms and saying nothing.
Zheng Qing turned his head and looked at Fatty Xin's tight robe and Zhang Jixin's flushed face, and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"Are you Zheng Qing?" Daley III asked quickly.
"Are you looking for me?" Zheng Qing repeated what he just said.
He felt the corners of his robe tighten and lowered his head. Xiao Xiao was clenching his fists and grabbing his robe so hard that his fists were so clenched that they turned white.
The atmosphere in the classroom is a bit dull.
The freshmen's eyes turned from the door to the back row of the classroom, their eyes widened, like hunting owls, with nervous and excited expressions.
Many people have heard of the discord between Zheng Qing and Alpha Academy.
In the eyes of some people, as the most important figure among the Alpha students, it may not be that simple for Augustus’s envoy to find Zheng Qing.【】
"Maybe he just came over to give a warning?"
"After all, this is a school."
"If Lei Zhe's people knew about this, they would never let it go!"
"A man as wise as Augustus would definitely not do anything stupid."
Similar whispers quietly occurred among the freshmen.
Some people gloated in their words, but more people looked at Zheng Qing with eyes full of sympathy and encouragement.
This made Zheng Qing feel more and more uncomfortable all over.
"What's the matter?" he finally asked the Jamaican again.
Perhaps realizing that Zheng Qing was determined not to follow him out of the classroom, Daley III finally took a step forward and walked to the back row of the classroom.
The students' gazes slowly moved along with his figure.
Jamaicans walk very briskly.
But the atmosphere in the classroom became increasingly tense.
"Nice to meet you."
Standing in front of Zheng Qing, Dai Li III smiled brightly, showing his big white teeth.
"Nice to meet you." Zheng Qing stretched out his hand awkwardly, intending to show proper etiquette.
However, his hand touched a wooden box.
The Jamaican did not shake his hand, but took out a rectangular flat wooden box from his pocket.
The wooden box is about half a meter long and wide, and only an inch high. The surface of the box is baked with red paint, which is smooth and discernible, with dark black textures emerging in it, and a few silver-white ribbons binding it, making it even more distinctive.
Gorgeous.
"This is a gift from His Excellency Augustus, please accept it."
Dai Li III handed the wooden box he was holding to Zheng Qing's hands. He stepped away without any more words and said goodbye politely.
Zheng Qing watched blankly as the figure in the silver dress walked out of the classroom and disappeared into the corridor.
Others also showed surprised expressions.
"That's it?" Zhang Jixin scratched his head and asked with a confused look on his face, raising the doubts of many people.
"That's it." Zheng Qing held the box and looked around in all directions, hoping to see something different on the surface of the box.
"Open it and take a look." Xiao Xiao expressed the thoughts of more people.
As if aware of Zheng Qing's hesitation, the special admissions student from Jiuyou College lowered his voice and explained quickly: "This is a school, and it is also the first university... Under the public gaze... he is not that dizzy."
Zheng Qing suddenly understood and pulled off the satin strap on the wooden box.
Everyone nearby came over.
Some students who were a little further away stood on chairs, some stood on tables, and some even opened Dharma books and quietly recited a few mantras.
Everyone was very interested in Augustus' gift.
"It's not every day that you get a chance to receive a gift from that big shot." Fatty Xin rubbed his hands and opened the lid under Zheng Qing's encouraging eyes: "Dang, Dang, Dang... Dang!"
There were no colorful fireworks exploding from the box, nor a strange black smoke rising up.
There was only a white linen garment neatly stacked in the box.
This is the most popular dress at Alpha Academy.
There is a white card placed on the linen clothes.
An invitation letter was written in cursive script on it:
“I hope to have the honor to invite you to our club’s welcome dinner,
Friday night at 7pm,
alfa castle,
Blood Club Hall No. 1,
Looking forward to your visit!
Augustus (signed).”
The onlookers were silent for a moment, and then an uproar broke out.
"It turned out to be an invitation letter written by His Excellency Augustus himself!"
"so amazing!"
"I want to go too……"
"I knew that His Excellency Augustus would not put any spell on the box..."
"Belly sinister heart of a gentleman……"
"This is a classic style Xima Chun. The material is quite sophisticated."
"I've seen this dress in 'Luxifang', and the price is twelve jade coins!"
Zheng Qing's hand shook and he almost threw the box away.
Twelve jade coins!
His scholarship is only ten jade coins.
Is this dress made of gold? I’m afraid it wouldn’t cost so much if it were made of gold!
When did jade coins become so worthless!
He was thinking about it in his mind, staring blankly at the wooden box in his hand. After a long time, he raised his head and asked in a low voice: "What does this mean?"
"What do you mean!" Fatty Xin slammed the lid of the box back on, with an angry look on his face: "That's what it means... I don't know what the big guy thought, inviting you to attend the blood club's orientation.
Dinner."
"I don't plan to join that club?" Zheng Qing hurriedly clarified, shouting: "I haven't decided what club to join yet!"
"Who knows." Fatty Xin shrugged, turned and squeezed out of the crowd.
It can be seen that this gift has rekindled Big Blue's resentment about the invitation, and he is very unhappy now.
"Can you not go?" Zheng Qing glanced at Xiao Xiao.
The students from Jiuyou College who were watching all showed their appreciative glances.
"I've always felt that Alpha's white linen clothes are a bit weird." Zhang Jixin said gruffly from the side.
"It's like crying in mourning." The skinny Duan Xiaojian next to him added in a low voice.
"As a nine-person, I have very good reasons for choosing not to go...but some things may only be explained clearly in person." Xiao Xiao pushed up his glasses, unfolded his notebook again, and concluded: "In short, this matter requires you
