Chapter 189 Before the Trial (Part 1)
Chapter 190 Before the Trial (Part 1)
The next day, in the auditorium.
It was a sleepy afternoon, the sun was falling from the skylight, and in the silence, only the voice from the podium could be heard.
Almost all the students in the school gathered here, and they were clearly divided from each other.
The red clothes of the School of Change, the yellow clothes of the School of Revelation, the blue clothes of the School of Summoning, and the Royal School, which was extended from the School of Summoning, had the least people, wearing white clothes with gold thread sewn on the cuffs.
Only the students who were about to graduate would be awarded the unique uniforms of their own factions by their teachers. They occupied the front position, and their expressions were slightly nervous and complicated.
The test of the school anniversary day was also one of their graduation tests. If they could not pass this level, I am afraid that the subsequent assignment would also be full of twists and turns.
After so many years of training, the future might depend on a gamble.
Whether to go to the border garrison corps for training, or travel around the world as a bard, or join the Royal Orchestra that countless people dream of, there is no doubt that the college's endorsement and recognition are needed.
It is said that a few years ago, the principal used this excuse to delay the graduation certificates of a group of people for a full six months.
In the end, the queen asked about it, and he charged double the make-up exam fee and reluctantly let it go.
I hope such a tragedy will not happen to me.
-
Ye Qingxuan didn't want to come to this kind of mobilization meeting. Anyway, it had nothing to do with him, and it was a waste of time.
But there was a senior brother in his family who applied for graduation every year but never passed, and the chief student had to attend, so he could only wear the "chief student badge" that he had thrown into the box since he got it, and came late.
After arriving, he found that the chief student had to sit in the front row. Feeling the gazes of various school leaders on the podium, he always felt particularly uncomfortable.
There was no way, the white hair was too eye-catching.
Right next to him, those senior class leaders who looked arrogant and cold seemed unwilling to pay attention to him, and he was too lazy to talk to them and cause trouble.
Only after he sat down did he realize that he was not the last one to arrive.
Another class leader came late, and in front of everyone, he walked through the aisle very calmly and sat next to him as if no one was around.
"Richard?"
Ye Qingxuan recognized him.
Unlike other students, Richard's school uniform was pure black.
His expression was still cold, and his eyes always seemed to be looking at something wrong, which made people particularly dislike him.
"It's been a long time since we last met, and Chief Ye actually still remembers me. It's an honor."
He responded indifferently.
Ye Qingxuan certainly remembered him. The guys in the school rules enforcement department can be said to be unforgettable - they all look like this.
What's more, when he was in the cafeteria, although his words were cold, he rarely had a hint of kindness.
But Ye Qingxuan didn't expect that he was also the class leader.
After a polite smile, Ye Qingxuan stopped talking, but heard his voice.
"Chat?"
Richard's eyes became slightly subtle.
Ye Qingxuan sighed, and was helpless: "You are not going to ask me about those damn gossips, are you?"
I was really tricked by Laura. Why do people want to ask about such damn things wherever I go?
"What gossip?"
Richard shook his head with a cold look, "We in the Execution Department never care about rumors..."
Instantly, Ye Qingxuan felt the long-lost touch: It is worthy of being the Execution Department, which is free from vulgarity!
Immediately afterwards, Richard finished slowly:
"——We prefer to arrest people on the spot and catch them red-handed."
"..."
Ye Qingxuan was speechless: So you are here to arrest people?
He burst into tears: "I am innocent."
"Whether innocent or not, we will judge for ourselves."
Richard looked at him and said meaningfully: "In the academy, the relationship between teachers and students is a taboo. I hope Chief Ye will not give us a chance."
Ye Qingxuan suddenly felt a kind of sadness that he could not defend himself.
So he had not done anything, but he was already on the list of the execution office, waiting to be arrested and put in solitary confinement?
From being the shame of the academy to being a rapist who was wanted by everyone, this mental journey was really hard to describe.
He sighed and was about to explain when Richard signaled him not to speak:
"Hush, the highlight of this year is on stage."
On the podium, Sidney's long and boring speech finally finished. Looking at the audience, his expression became enthusiastic:
"Next, welcome the former president of the student union, the head student of the sixth grade, and the representative of the Royal School: Gavin Adrian, to speak on behalf of all students participating in the graduation test!"
After speaking, he led the applause.
In the audience, there was a cheer and crazy applause. The sound made Ye Qingxuan's ears hurt.
A girl was shouting the name madly, looking excited.
He looked around blankly and found that he was the only one standing there, so he quickly followed the applause.
As everyone was watching, the man sitting on the far left of the first row of students stood up, nodded slightly to the crowd, and walked onto the podium.
He seemed to be in his twenties, still very young, with blue eyes, handsome and elegant manners, and a graceful demeanor.
The white clothes of the Royal School on him complemented each other perfectly.
Even a guy like Ye Qingxuan, who is completely indifferent to aristocratic demeanor, has to admit that Gavin is indeed worthy of the title of Blood of Glory.
He is simply a born noble. If he is wearing armor and riding a horse, it would be a portrayal of a legendary knight, right?
No wonder so many girls scream when they see him. Who doesn’t like Prince Charming?
But on the podium, Gavin glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally, his eyes became slightly colder, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"Thank you to the school for your kindness and allowing me to speak on behalf of everyone."
On the podium, Gavin began to speak, his voice low and gentle, with a mature hoarseness and contagiousness.
The entire hall fell silent for an instant, listening intently to his voice.
But under the podium, Ye Qingxuan was a little confused.
"Who is that?"
Ye Qingxuan asked in a low voice: "It seems quite powerful."
"Gavin, the chief of the sixth grade and the previous student council president, is the rising star of the Adrian family."
Richard responded: "I thought you knew about him."
"I also feel like I should get to know him."
Ye Qingxuan spread his hands, "Because he seems to be unhappy with me. Did I accidentally offend someone again?"
"..."
Richard was silent for a long time because of his shameless look, and asked in a low voice, "Banner, do you remember?
The one who particularly hates you, who even instructs others to stumble you before going to Qianxiu, is his brother. "
Ye Qingxuan suddenly realized it, and when he looked at Richard, his eyes filled with admiration, "You are really knowledgeable! Are you the biggest gossip among us?"
"That's what the enforcement office is like."
Richard said calmly, "There has to be some undisclosed source."
Ye Qingxuan curled his lips and glanced at the stage, "It sounds like he will help my brother deal with me? I'm under a lot of pressure."
"It's possible, but he doesn't have the time."
"Um?"
"He joined the Royal School two years ago. He started at the musician level and went through more than six sublimation ceremonies. I heard that he advanced to the resonance level a few months ago.
The Royal Orchestra is very optimistic about him and he will be called up directly after graduation.
He was too busy to pay attention to you before leaving. After leaving, what excuse would he have to interfere in your affairs? "
"That's very well said."
Ye Qingxuan nodded, "I believe it."
Indeed, Gavin had no time to trouble him at all, but just looking at the pile of titles in front of him, you could tell that even if he didn't have time, as long as he casually said a few words, someone would naturally deal with him on his behalf.
Thinking of this possibility, Ye Qingxuan had a headache: he really didn't have time to waste on such boring things.
"It's really troublesome."
He whispered softly.
"Would you like to consider joining the Enforcement Division?" Richard suddenly said, "You can get paid, and you can avoid a lot of trouble."
The second time.
This is the second time the Enforcement Division has recruited itself.
Ye Qingxuan sighed, "Are you so short of people?"
“There are people everywhere, but it’s hard to find the right one.”
The manager looked at him and said, "I will apply to travel next year. Before I leave, I hope to add some new blood to the execution office."
"Sorry." Ye Qingxuan shook his head, "I don't have time."
Richard was silent for a long time, then sighed softly with regret, and handed a card to Ye Qingxuan, "If you change your mind, just come to this address."
"I will."
Ye Qingxuan put away the card and on the stage, his speech was finally coming to an end.
Everyone's voices disappeared, waiting eagerly.
Finally here!
——The content of the first trial on the school anniversary day will be announced soon!
Under everyone's eager gaze, Gavin picked up the sealed letter in his hand, opened it in front of everyone, took out the letter, and slowly unfolded it.
Then he was stunned for a moment and frowned slightly.
Everyone's breathing suddenly stopped.
"The following will announce the first trial on the school anniversary day."
Gavin paused, raised his head, and declared solemnly:
"——Mimicry!"
In an instant, there was a burst of exclamation in the entire auditorium, as if it was exploding. There was a roar of people, mixed with faint whines and sighs.
"Do you want it?!"
Among the graduates, some were almost crying. At the back, Charles, who was joining in the fun, whistled: He couldn't graduate anyway, so he came just to watch the fun.
"I'm just saying, how can it be simple?"
He shrugged, shook his head and sighed.
Mimicry can be said to be a skill that all musicians must master.
As the name suggests, mimicry is the use of ether to simulate the appearance of other substances through various methods, delving into the depths, and even replacing the material.
There are musicians who specialize in this technique in the Department of Change, and one of their graduation trials is to replace a thumb-sized piece of iron into gold through elements.
But this time the difficulty of the trial is not that high. After all, it would take at least two months for a musician who is proficient in this method to refine gold.
Therefore, this trial is intended to test the musician's ability to utilize the environment and disguise himself.
According to the principal: musicians themselves are the pioneers of the dark world. They must have strong survival ability to survive in the dark world full of dangers.
Therefore, on tomorrow's school anniversary, the Requiem barrier will be officially opened, replacing and transforming the entire school environment.
At that time, the whole school will become a huge examination room.
And what the students who participate in the graduation test need to do is to use mimicry to turn themselves into various dead objects and then hide them...
Next, the most tragic part will begin.
