You could hear Yiko's excitement on the other side of the phone, and Dong Xiang had to move the phone away from her ear to ensure that her hearing would not be affected.
What's wrong? Dong Xiang asked in confusion: Did you draw the invitation ticket for 'Yinglin Room' again?
No, no, no! The prerequisite for enjoying delicious food is to earn enough money, and most of the prerequisites for making money are to have a diploma from a prestigious school.
Yiko's voice on the phone was still in a state of high excitement, but it still made Dong Xiang feel puzzled.
The Qingsi High School they went to could only be described as average. It was very far away from graduating from a prestigious school, and the two were not even close to each other.
this......
Dong Xiangjiang? Are you listening?
Well. Dong Xiang suppressed her doubts, but her thoughts jumped to the distance. She once heard that someone started preparing to study abroad when they were in their second year of high school. Could her human friend Yiko be the same...
Thinking of this, Dong Xiang felt a little lonely. She had only a handful of friends in the human world. No one in her class would pay attention to her except Xiao Itao.
Now...even my only friend is leaving?
Have you heard of Caltech?
Well. Dong Xiang was not in a very high mood. After sorting out his mood, he thought about how to congratulate this friend.
We were all accepted!
Congratulations, Yizi, you... wait! Dong Xiang said in surprise: What did you say?
We have all been admitted to this world-renowned university! Yiko's excited voice came from the phone receiver.
Kirishima Touka was not dazzled by the news. She frowned. She had heard about some preparations needed to study abroad before. The things were very complicated. They... had done nothing. How could they be...
Admission?
Yizi. Dong Xiang’s tone was serious: Beware of the liar.
At first, our family thought so. Yiko’s words came: But it was the school teacher who informed us that the admission notice had been mailed to the school. The teacher said it was the official email from Caltech that sent the information directly to the school.
.
Kirishima Touka's wrinkled eyebrows did not relax at all, but became tighter, and her tone was even slightly distorted because of the sharpness: How is this possible?! A world-famous school would admit two of us, Yingzhou High School, whose grades are not top-notch, for no reason.
Students? And we didn’t apply for anything, let alone pass those tests!
Hmm~Have you forgotten the English-only answer sheet we filled out half a month ago?
ha?!
The corridor was filled with the sound of Dong Xiang walking back and forth. She was still very vigilant about this matter. They did write a pure English answer sheet distributed by the school half a month ago. She couldn't understand it well and just chose it randomly.
I chose a painting and submitted it.
Is it just because of this incident? Isn’t it too bizarre? Has the scammer become so rampant?
Dong Xiangjiang, don't be excited. The school teachers didn't believe it at first. They went to Caltech's official office and made inquiries on the phone before confirming the matter. The notice had arrived in their hands as early as yesterday, but it's just been waiting for them.
Just confirmation.
Really? Dong Xiang still couldn't believe that such a bizarre thing would happen to her. What's even more coincidental is that she and her best friend were chosen together!
Could it be that some foreign university was called California Institute of Technology? Dong Xiang still doubted it.
Oops~ There was a sigh from Koita Yiko: Can you just call and ask in the evening? We will go to school tomorrow and see what the teacher says. As far as I know, all high schools in Tokyo have filled out that paper.
, but very few were admitted.
Dong Xiang racked her brains to think back. She just scrawled on the English-only paper. Is this okay?
...
Kirishima Touka returned to the coffee shop in a daze and looked at the clerk who was sharing the food of "Sakura Rinma".
What's wrong? Dong Xiang? The only store manager who didn't eat human food turned around. He was the first ghoul to sense that Dong Xiang's spirit was not right.
Dong Xiang looked at the store manager and said blankly: I seem to have been admitted to Caltech out of nowhere.
Oh? The slightly fat man wearing a waiter's uniform and slicked back hair turned around. Caltech is from the United States. It seems to be quite famous in the human world. It's a famous school, right?
Dong Xiang turned her attention to the man. This slightly fat man who seemed to be kind to people was actually an SS-level ghoul. He was once the boss of the Demon Ape Organization in District 20. His name was Maruji Furuma, and he is now the owner of Antique Coffee
The barista in the shop.
I remember that Dong Xiang’s grades were pretty good, but they weren’t good enough to get admitted into such a prestigious human school, were they? Beware of scams.
Kirishima Touka looked at the female clerk again.
Black hair, a little aloof when no one is around, but he is actually an SS-level ghoul. He was once the leader of the Black Mandala Organization. His strength is almost the same as that of the Demon Ape, and he also has a large number of subordinates. His name is Irimi Xuan, and now
He is a clerk at an antique coffee shop.
Have you asked? The manager of the antique coffee shop, an old man who is always smiling and very kind, asked.
Yes, both the school and Yiko have asked, and there is about a 70% chance that it is true.
It's a bit outrageous. In ancient times, Yuan'er put down the fruits in his hands. Ghouls are not welcome in the United States. No matter what the reason is, it is best not to set foot in that country.
...
The next day, Kirishima Touka was still in a trance after receiving the admission notice. She also called to ask last night and talked with the other party in her half-baked English for about half an hour before she figured out the cause and effect.
The excited expression on Koita Yiko's face is related to the rumored terror of the United States in the ghoul world, the only three countries in the world that have eliminated ghouls...
She definitely couldn't go. If she went there, the ghoul extermination department from the United States might kill her as soon as she got off the plane.
I don’t know why, but Kirishima Touka is always feeling uneasy.
As if she would be in danger if she went to the United States, she would be in danger if she stayed in Yingzhou!
Back at the antique coffee shop, Kirishima Touka changed into a waiter uniform and started working in the coffee shop.
The TV hanging in the coffee shop started broadcasting news again.
This time it is an interview program with ghoul experts.
Professor Mishima, what do you think of ghouls at this stage?
The bald and greasy middle-aged man in the picture began to talk...
