 "Cheer up!"

Lao Yao slapped the young public-funded student on the shoulder and taught him a lesson: "Cheer up. You have to know that this is the First University and you are my student. Don't think about it all day long, wondering about what is there and what is not. Young people

, be more lively, and live like an old man, without the vitality of young people!"

Zheng Qing twitched the corners of his mouth and forced out a difficult smile.

That's true, but the heavy pressure has not been eliminated because of Lao Yao's encouragement - Zheng Qing feels like he is walking around the school with a nuclear bomb, and he will be killed if he is not careful.

Exploded to pieces.

"Of course, it is not ruled out that your transformation technique has mutated." The professor thought for a moment and gave the young wizard some reassurance: "Magic, there will always be some kind of mutation in the process of development - as for the mutation

There are all kinds of reasons - in short, if it develops according to regular causal connections, it wouldn't be called magic."

As he said this, Lao Yao picked up a kraft paper envelope from the desk and stuffed it into Zheng Qing's hand.

"Here are your transfiguration notes, the physical examination report from the school hospital, and the monitoring report of the transfiguration potion... Because the bottle needs to be opened for testing, the intact potion you handed in is gone. The school will reissue it to you.

I bought two new transformation potions, and the effect will definitely not be bad."

"However, if you want to use the transformation potion in the future, you must remember to report it. This way, the school's protective formation can improve your protection level and prevent you from being eaten by rats... Especially now, the school is in a mess

Yes, if you didn't report it and were kicked into Linzhong Lake by a wizard after your transformation, you would be in trouble."

Zheng Qing took the kraft paper envelope, listened to Lao Yao's nagging, and couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the cold water of Linzhong Lake in this season and the smelly fish people living in the lake.

"I understand, I understand." He nodded in agreement.

"Well... If there is nothing else, let's go have lunch. I think they have been waiting for you for a long time." Old Yao put away the handouts, handed the teacup to the school janitor who was floating aside, and turned around again.

He warned Zheng Qing: "If there is anything unusual after that magic, remember to tell me or a few other professors in time. Also, don't forget to catch mice."

"After you turn into a cat, it should be very convenient to catch mice."

There is a bit of ridicule in the last sentence.

This is also a way for the professor to close the distance between him and his students. The young public-funded student smiled bitterly, but suddenly remembered another thing.

"Professor, can mice also wear clothes?" He couldn't help but ask as he followed Lao Yao out of the classroom.

The last time he turned into a cat and wandered around the campus, Zheng Qing had seen a big mouse wearing clothes in the office building - this mouse had troubled the young public-funded student for a long time, and he was not sure what it was.

Is it a mouse transformed by a wizard, or is it a real mouse that has become a spirit?

Lao Yao happened to bring up this topic, so he simply took this opportunity to ask.

"A rat in clothes?" Lao Yao stopped and looked sideways at Zheng Qing, holding a pipe in one hand and raising his eyebrows: "In the academy? Did you see it?"

Zheng Qing nodded repeatedly and described in detail what he saw and heard that night.

Finally, he added: "In the past two weeks, I have taken a few times to take a look under the tree hole. The first two times I went there were the same as before. There was nothing. The paper crane flew in and there was no trace...

…The third time I went, the tree hole was gone! The bark was intact, and it felt like I was dreaming before.”

"Damn it." Old Yao cursed in a low voice, paused, and then explained: "Maybe some wizard is practicing transformation and made a joke to you... Just like the disappearing tree hole, only magic can

cause such consequences.”

"Of course, there are also some enlightened mice who will dress up like humans and run around to study... You have to remember, this is a wizarding university, and everything is possible."

Zheng Qing nodded and agreed, thinking about it privately, but always felt that Lao Yao's answer was a bit perfunctory.

If there is really a wizard practicing the transformation spell, and the transformation result is a mouse, as the dean of Jiuyou College, he must know some rumors. If the mouse that becomes a spirit has not reported its identity at First University, Zheng

Qing believed that he had been caught by the crazy wizards in the research institute and taken to the laboratory to be used as a breeding rat.

The most important thing is that that night, the mouse was wandering around the campus, and there was no abnormal fluctuation in the school's guardian formation. If there was nothing fishy, ​​Zheng Qing would never believe it.

In this way, while he was thinking wildly, he followed Fatty and a few others to the canteen for lunch.

Next to him, Xiao Xiao was analyzing Lao Yao's explanation before class in a serious manner: "...What he said is not necessarily false, but it is certainly not the whole truth. Do you know how many researchers, assistants, and even professors there are in First University?

Lecturers, school workers? Does a simple survey of the Silent Forest require the dean and vice-principals of the school to do it themselves? As long as a notice is sent, there are many people who are willing to go deep into the forest to investigate and collect evidence for the resurgence of silence."

"Yes, yes, at least Assistant Hilda will be very happy... In the last practical class, he told me that he almost grew hairy after being in school." Zhang Jixin repeatedly agreed with the doctor's analysis and gave some advice.

your own supporting arguments.

"It's not convincing." Fatty retorted habitually: "Maybe as the rumors say, some monsters were suppressed deep in the Silent Forest... The deans went to check the specific situation of those monsters. But the reporter's time

After a long time, I can easily judge the gap between rumors and facts. I would say, this rumor is very reliable!"

"Haha... I don't know whether the reliability is high or not, but I know that you have been a reporter for less than two months." Zhang Jixin snorted coldly.

While talking, several people had already arrived in the cafeteria.

"Who knows!" Xiao Xiao finally shrugged and took the topic in another direction: "But what is certain is that maybe in the near future, the school cafeteria will provide a lot of fish-related food - stingrays with seeds.

The fish tastes very delicious.”

As he spoke, he pointed to today's menu on the glass window.

Steamed fish, boiled fish, braised fish, grilled fish steak, fried fish balls, stewed fish soup, fish in sour soup, spicy diced fish, etc. As far as you can see, the meat on the vegetable shelf is all made of stingray.

.

It can be seen that the school working committee has been very successful in controlling canteen costs.

"It doesn't matter." Zheng Qing glanced at the various fish foods on the shelves and said gloomily: "As long as the canteen doesn't skin the mice and make them into dishes, I can accept it."

Several other people looked at each other, then burst into laughter.
