Chapter 372 Ringo: Human Beings Have Limits
Chapter 372 Ringo: Human beings have limits...
It sounds like a very inspirational story about a young girl who doesn't want to be bullied...and a poor girl.
Russell became energetic after hearing this.
According to the development in the novel, if Ringo is the protagonist, then the next step should be to wake up instantly after deciding to work hard, and then rush to the first place in an instant. According to the traditional school, it is simply someone who used to be a master of point control or a hidden genius; or it can also be a whole fishing system, the more fish you catch, the better your performance will be...
So he couldn't wait to ask: "Then what?"
"...Then, I soon discovered that there are limits to one's efforts. The wall called 'talent' cannot be climbed over just by hard work and determination. I tried my best and was full of confidence...but... During the school year exam, I only ranked eighth in the class and fifty-fifth in the same major.
"The exams at Nephthys University are very difficult. In other words, the exams at the universities on Sun Island are very difficult... In my first year, I just maintained an average score of about seventy-something and never failed in the exam. I can get the twelfth place in this situation; and my average score in this exam was 81 points. I originally thought that my progress this time was enough and big enough... But except for me, other people Everyone started working hard, but I couldn't beat their scores.
“I went to ask privately about the seventh place’s results, and he was inconsistent with my results; and from what he said... the results of everyone in front of him and each other can be said to be inconsistent.
"We are also students of Nephthys University. This is one of the nine universities that Sun Island is proud of. It is undoubtedly one of the best schools in the world, but the gap between them is huge. So big...
"At the same time, the 'other me' who bears my childhood name is also studying mathematics at the same university as me. That is a much more difficult major than applied psychic science... but she can Ranked first in the class and second in the same major.
"The moment I learned the results, I suddenly realized - as my parents are doctors, psychics and scholars, they can indeed see through my talents. Even if I am by the standards of ordinary people, I am still a bit good. Brain. But there is no comparison with those monsters... I really didn’t inherit even a little bit of the wisdom and ability from my parents.”
Ringo sighed. She pursed her lips, very unwilling to do so.
Russell blinked.
It seems that the only difference from what was expected is that Miss Ringo is not the protagonist in the script...
He asked curiously: "How many people are there in your class?"
"Forty people, a total of 360 people in the same major."
"That's actually not that bad. You're already very good - at least you're in the front row."
"If you can't achieve your best, you're a waste. If you can't become a 'Doctor', there's no point in studying..."
Ringo just shook his head.
She sighed, stood up, picked up the cup of cocoa that had become a little cold, and drank it in one gulp.
The cocoa that has been cooled no longer has that mellow fragrance, but is instead sweet to the point of being cloying.
But this time, Russell did not stop her.
"Just like my current job, it actually doesn't use any of the knowledge I learned in college. I know how to imprint psychic energy, I know the influence of spiritual relatives on psychic energy, and I can also make psychic chips... But so what?
"My daily job is to fight those mercenaries - and the second is to record advertisements and promotional videos. And now I have received such a task..."
She clenched the cup full of cocoa unwillingly: "The knowledge I have learned so hard is of no use at all!
"But it's also very reasonable...'Research', an industry with extremely high thresholds and huge consumption, does not require bastards and waste. What I learned in college was just a threshold level of knowledge and a test of discernment. I didn't even pass this test or cross the threshold. The knowledge I came into contact with can only be regarded as 'useful', but it cannot be said to be 'profound' at all.
"And now, the reason why I was chosen and given this task is actually because of the blood of my biological parents who abandoned me.
"I told you before, Mr. Ultramarine. We on Sun Island do not value bloodline the least... but from another perspective, we value bloodline the most."
Russell's apparent psychic powers are the same as Alice's, and they are both "non-existent weapons". This is the only original copy left in the world... Only this pair of mother and son have inherited the same spiritual power. And Russell himself is still a very good top student. Even if he is placed in Sun Island, he is still a talent who can enter the first round. According to Sun Island's special "academic aesthetic", Russell's appeal can be said to be quite high.
"Professor Chen", Ringo's mentor at Nephthys University and a researcher in her suit, a senior researcher at the Second Research Institute, gave Ringo this task.
When Professor Chen told me about this task, he didn't feel any guilt at all, but instead he was all smiles.
Because he didn't think that Lin Yu had been wronged in this task. Rather, it is that they are using Sun Island's pressure to force Russell.
"...You are really not interested in me, are you?"
Ringo confirmed again: "Are you really not interested at all? I will take drugs to stimulate hormone secretion, just once...I will never pester you after that."
"I have a girlfriend."
Russell emphasized.
"Eh-that's great..."
Ringo's eyes were full of envy: "I also want to have a boyfriend..."
She looked at Russell, and the pink halo in her pupils completely dissipated at some point, turning back into dark and lively eyes.
"There's nothing we can do...then let's do it."
She put her hands behind her back and smiled briskly: "Then I won't tempt you again, Mr. Ultramarine!"
"real?"
"certainly."
Ringo snorted: "I won't poach other people's corners. Don't underestimate a woman's self-esteem... I can smell your breath. She is also a dog, right?"
"Ah...her spiritual relative is Samoyed."
"Is he a big man? Does Mr. Ultramarine like someone bigger than himself?"
"No, she is a mixed race - her father's spiritual relative is a Ragdoll cat."
"I see."
Ringo nodded thoughtfully, and finally seemed to let go of something, showing a narrow and cheerful smile: "Did you know? According to our research on spiritual relatives, there is a high probability that a child's first love partner and spiritual relative will be his when he grows up. It’s similar to parents of the opposite sex. Maybe she likes you because her father has a feline spirit relative.”
"Is there still such a thing?"
"Well, spiritual relatives have a 'taste'. Most people can't touch it, but if they are ignorant children, they can easily feel it, because children have very strong inspiration and spiritual relatives are still developing. They will be here In the process, it is inevitable to absorb some of the habits of the parents, which is why we at Sun Island raise children away from their parents. After the boys get used to the taste of their mothers and the girls get used to the taste of their fathers, they will then When looking for a love partner, it’s easy to choose someone of similar type.”
"...But my mother is also a desert cat."
"I know this. So it's just a statement, not the actual truth."
Ringo's tone gradually became lively, becoming as cute as when he first met Russell, but no longer as shy as he was then.
But now, Russell no longer treats her as a little sister who doesn't understand anything.
She knows everything. It's just that she didn't show it... It was her strong heart that allowed her to play the image of a "lovable and cute pet dog", allowing herself to survive in the world without such high value.
Just to live - to design carefully.
"...What did you say there? If the mission fails, do you need me to explain it to you?"
Russell felt a little soft-hearted and couldn't help but ask.
Ringo shook his head slightly.
"it does not matter."
She smiled and said: "As I said just now... they are using the pressure of Sun Island to force you. On the other hand, they have already prepared a record. What should you do if you don't accept this.
"In other words, they have already made psychological preparations that I will fail the mission.
"After all, everyone has never had much confidence in me since I was little~"
Miss Ringo, who has long brown curly hair, showed a carefree and cheerful smile, and said easily: "Both I and everyone are used to it."
