Chapter 10 Yesterday's Tanabata

 When Zheng Qing left the Wandering Bar, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. Young wizards who were preparing to party all night began to gather in twos and threes towards the bar to grab good seats.

Zheng counted the time, screamed in his heart that it was not good, and ran towards Dr. Duzem's house.

The time he agreed with Jiang Yu was at 3:30 in the afternoon, but it was already more than half an hour late.

As a boy, it is extremely rude to be late for a meeting with a girl, not to mention that Jiang Yu is still helping him, which is even more unreasonable.

As he ran, he cursed in his heart that he was an old and disrespectful wandering wizard. He was obviously rich and had a high level of cultivation, but he was fussing over everything with a kid who was not even a fraction of his age. He simply lost all the respect of the old wizard.

Face.

Originally, according to the plan, Zheng Qing could leave the Wandering Bar at half past two - if he left at that time, not only would he not be late, but he would be a lot earlier, which could fully demonstrate the wizard's gentlemanly demeanor - but because

The wandering wizard was telling stories and negotiating the price with Zheng Qing. Unknowingly, the time was getting a little late.

Of course, this time was not wasted.

Zheng Qing touched the gray cloth bag in his arms.

In the small red sandalwood box at the deepest part of the bag, there are one hundred and twenty jade coins neatly stacked. These are the profits he got after selling the catches of the school hunting club. Originally, there should be one hundred and thirty.

Ten jade coins, but in order for Wandering Bar to stop the rumors that were spreading in the school, Zheng Qing reluctantly spent ten jade coins.

"I hope it's not too late."

The young wizard prayed secretly, feeling a little bitter in his mouth.

Because the hottest part of the afternoon had just passed and the air was still filled with heavy heat at this moment, there was not a lot of people on the pedestrian street. Even so, some sharp-eyed people still saw the young wizard running wildly on the street.

"That's Zheng Qing, right? What's the matter with him running so fast?" A wizard tilted his head and looked out the window, asking in a surprised tone: "It looks like he is being chased by a group of demons."

The speaker is currently sitting in a seat by the window of a coffee shop facing the street. There is a white porcelain cup in front of him. In the cup, the dark coffee is steaming, and a bunch of flowers are rolled up in the air.

A strange-shaped cloud.

Opposite the wizard is a young witch.【!¥ !&fastest update】

There was no coffee in front of her, but a plate of dead frogs with bloody flesh. These frogs had been skinned, revealing pink and bloody frog meat. A thick cobra was hanging on the witch's neck.

On the frogs, they vomited bright red saliva and greedily licked the flesh of these frogs.

Not far away, the waiter in the coffee shop was looking desperately at the witch, the snake and the plate of dead frogs - this strange combination had scared away many young witches in the shop. However, because the witch was Jiuyou

He was the chief freshman of the college, and the store owner didn't dare to come forward and drive him away. He could only pray to the gods and Buddhas in the sky to send this little ancestor away quickly.

"Nicholas! Don't avoid my question!" Liu Feifei glanced at the hurried figure of the public-funded student outside the window, then turned back, glared at the sallow-faced wizard opposite, and said dissatisfied: "...even if Zheng Qing ran naked on the street,

What does it have to do with us?!"

"I just want to ask you one thing now... Do you want to pass the final exam and then be promoted to the sophomore year?"

Nicholas stared uneasily at the small porcelain cup in front of him, crossed his hands, and rubbed his two thumbs on the edge of the cup. After a long time, he replied in a low voice: "I think!"

"Since you want to upgrade, why haven't you come to the library to study recently?!" Liu Feifei's tone became more and more annoyed, and her voice rose slightly: "Not only did you not come to study, but you also avoided me! Am I that terrible? Avoid me.

Is it useful?... If Elena hadn’t helped me calculate your whereabouts, would you have planned to hide for the rest of your life?”

As if aware of the anger of its little master, the cobra that was happily licking the frog meat suddenly raised its head, puffed out its mouth, and hissed a threatening sound at the wizard opposite.

Several more muffled screams suddenly sounded in the small coffee shop. Soon, several witches dropped their money and ran away in a hurry. The coffee shop owner was left standing behind the counter, wanting to cry without tears.

"Shut up! You have no right to interrupt when adults are talking!" Liu Feifei slapped her own cobra on the head, smashed its head into the frog meat, and reprimanded angrily.

The cobra shook his head blankly, glanced at his little master carefully, then glanced at the brat with mixed blood opposite him, blinked, and finally buried his head between the two frog legs, obediently.

Nibble on the frog meat.

"I'm not hiding from you... It's just that it's the moon hunting season recently, and many stores are hiring part-time workers... I just use my spare time to earn some living expenses..." Nicholas stammered in explanation, denying repeatedly: "I'm not hiding.

You really!"

"Don't you have a scholarship?" Liu Feifei frowned, slightly displeased: "We are all still students, as long as the living expenses are enough... Your most important task now is the exam! Do you still expect the school to give you a fourth chance?

?Or, do you think it is a great honor to be the first first-year student in the history of First University to study in four colleges?"

Nicholas wrung his fingers, hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed and whispered: "The scholarship is only enough for me. I also have a younger sister who is not in good health and needs to take medicine every day... In addition, there are a few more

The New Year is about to begin in the next month, so I should prepare a New Year gift for you all."

Liu Feifei was stunned, and finally hummed softly, shrank back slightly, and the fierce expression on her face faded a lot.

"Then you should tell me in advance!" The chief student of Jiuyou College muttered: "Even so, your homework can't be left behind... Well, after you finish your homework every night, I can find time to help you.

Review the key points and difficulties in the homework, the time is set from 9 to 11:30 in the evening, are there any questions?!"

Although it was a rhetorical question, looking at her expression, it seemed that she did not intend to hear a second answer from Nicholas.

Fortunately, brother Nicholas was not stupid and nodded quickly: "No problem... you can start at any time."

After the problem was solved, the two of them suddenly fell into silence, speechless for a while.

Liu Feifei stared at the cobra eating the frog meat for a while, and finally found an excuse to change the topic back to the fork in the road opened by Nicholas: "Your previous question is very reasonable... Zheng Qing was in a hurry just now, why were he running?"

As he said that, the two of them turned their heads and looked out the window at the same time.

Pedestrians were coming and going on the pedestrian street, and it was very lively. The figure of the young public-funded student in Astronomy Class 08-1 had long since disappeared into the flow of people, and there was no trace.
