Chapter 238: Their Respective Tasks
After the regular meeting, it was getting late.
The four members of the Astronomy 08-1 squad of the Sin Hunter gathered in the corner of the classroom for their own regular meeting. Zheng Qing, as the captain of the hunting team, has been the moderator of this informal meeting:
"I have other arrangements for next Saturday and need to continue to take time off, so I will find time this week to complete my Saturday night patrol in advance...... And another application for a fake slip will need to be submitted to Professor Montella. ”
Thinking of Professor Montella's stern gaze, Zheng Qing felt a sense of emptiness in his heart. Taking three weeks off in a row, even as a temporary assistant, is a bit too much. He felt like he was going to be kicked out of the lab by Professor Montella at any moment. But the pact of silence that has been signed cannot be reversed.
Thinking of this, he sighed deeply, tried to cheer up a little, and continued to arrange: "...... So, this week's training task of the hunting team is still arranged and responsible by the elders, do you have any opinions?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Jixin with an inquiring gaze.
The red-faced wizard hugged his arms, the corners of his mouth were slightly downturned, and he nodded with a serious expression, looking 'I am very reliable'.
"You still can't tell us what you've been doing on Saturdays, can you?" Xiao Xiao lifted his glasses, looked at Zheng Qing, and asked softly.
Zheng Qing hesitated for a few seconds and slowly shook his head: "Silent contract." ”
Several of his companions looked unexpected.
Xiao Xiao paused in mid-air with the hand holding the quill, and added, "Even if you can't tell anyone else, you should leave a letter to explain where you are going...... That way, if something happens, at least we know where to look for you. ”
said this, as if Zheng Qing would be stuffed into a tree hole by a blindfolded kidnapper in the next second.
The young public scholarship student laughed dryly, nodded, and did not give a clear answer, but continued the topic of the meeting: "This matter will be talked about here first...... Next thing, D&K's business situation last week. ”
As he spoke, he pulled out a list - this is the account given to him by the fox Hank who is the D&K accountant not long ago Feihe gave him - cleared his throat and read: "Last week's turnover was two jade and three bean triangles and four coppers, after deducting the cost, the net profit was one jade coin, seven gold beans, five silver horns and thirteen coppers, and the specific list items ......"
As he spoke, he glanced at the dense numbers and sales information behind the summary, suddenly felt a big headache, waved his hand, and said briefly: "Interested students can apply to the doctor to check the accounts, and if you are not interested, wait for the dividends after the mid-year accounts come out at the end of the semester." As for the current profit, it is still classified into the hunting team's provident fund according to the previous system, and the expenses of the next hunting competition are borne by it. ”
Everyone nodded their heads.
Instead, Zhang Jixin pinched his chin and asked, "I heard that this year's spring hunt has been postponed? Do you know when it will be held? The standard talismans I bought before are about to expire." ”
Zheng Qing shrugged: "How do I know about this kind of thing, I'm not from the school working committee or the student department." ”
"But you're a publicly-funded student!" Zhang Jixin blinked: "Publicly-funded students have channels to get those sensitive news." ”
"I don't know. Zheng Qing tugged at the corners of his mouth and refused: "You can ask the fat man to help inquire about this kind of thing, it may be faster." As for your expiring talismans, put them in the store and get them from the store when you need them. It can always reduce the loss of timeliness a little. ”
"Roger. In front of Xin Fatzi was Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao's magic history homework, which was directly opposed, intending to synthesize the arguments of the two companions to refine his own arguments.
Although he didn't get accurate information, he still reduced the damage slightly, and the red-faced wizard nodded in satisfaction.
"Is there anything else?" Zheng Qing looked around, wanting to end this tedious part as soon as possible.
Xiao Xiao cleared his throat and raised his hand.
"Once again, the Divine Will has extended an olive branch to us to attend the 'Linzhong Lake Security' meeting on Wednesday night to discuss the threat to the Fish-Man Tribe. He pondered and asked, "Would you like to hear what they have to say?"
"Don't go. Zheng Qing waved his hand and resolutely stopped: "That's not an olive branch, it's a zipline leading to the abyss." We have long established the community's policy on this issue, and we will never participate in the side between the two communities...... This kind of thing, as long as we stand in the conference room of one of their societies, we have already made our position clear. ”
Speaking of this, he paused with some hesitation, and finally couldn't help asking, "We have rejected them four or five times, why did they still invite us?"
"Because after all, you are a public scholarship student of Jiuyou, and you have so many titles, you have some influence in the academy. Xiao Xiao briefly analyzed: "Plus you beat Seprano to a serious injury a few days ago...... This is a great incentive for many forces within the Divine Will. Anyway, if you invite two more times, you won't lose two catties of meat, and if you invite them, won't they make a lot of money?"
It sounds a little weird, but it gives you a wonderful sense of pride.
"But we are in the Nine You Academy, and we will inevitably have a fight with Alpha after all. Zhang Jixin took out his boxing gloves again at some point, and was slowly pulling the skin on the boxing gloves and stuffing his fingers into them one by one.
"Fighting for the Academy and fighting for the Divine Will are two different concepts. Zheng Qing suppressed those strange thoughts in his heart, raised a finger, and shook it: "We must distinguish the subtle differences." ”
"Very sensible. The fat man Xin, who had been immersed in making up for his homework, muttered without raising his head.
After the red-faced wizard stuffed ten fingers into his fist, he stretched out his palm and said indifferently, "You are the captain, you have the final say." ”
"One last thing," Xiao Xiao put away his notebook and tilted his head slightly to the other corner of the classroom, "What should he do about that?" he felt like there was a lot of pressure inside and outside the academy...... We definitely need to show our attitude towards this matter. ”
The Doctor's head is in the direction of Nicholas' seat.
Out of the corner of Zheng Qing's eyes, he could see that Liu Feifei was sitting in the corner with Nicholas, whispering something. Both of them looked sad.
He couldn't help but sigh softly: "I don't know either. But I always feel that if Liu Feifei continues to protect Nicholas like this, those guys outside will definitely start pouring dirty water on her. When the time comes, no one will be able to run. ”
His description is somewhat vague, but the central meaning is clear.
As a publicly-funded student and first-year chief student of Jiuyou Academy, if Liu Feifei becomes a new target of Alpha or the Beta Town Post, then the impact of the Nicholas incident will definitely be further expanded.
When the time comes, everyone will be swept up in it.
