Chapter 563: The Historian (11)
A large number of things were piled together, and the girl finally showed a very helpless look. She looked seventeen or eighteen years old, and her hair was tied in a bunch by pink bands, which were not very long, hanging down behind her back. She also wore a pair of glasses that were just right for her age, and the same pink rim, which seemed to be a color she liked.
He brought a large basket from the tool room that was isolated on the side, and threw all the garbage and miscellaneous items into it. By the time the outside of the house was cleaned, it was almost halfway through the morning. There wasn't anyone around, and most of them were excited all night and are still sleeping in their beds.
Although there was a light snow yesterday, the thin clouds in the sky did not fade much. It was a port-based city, and because of its trade and easy transportation on the sea, it was one of the most prosperous regional cities in the empire. But the girl had no sense of the exuberance, and she withdrew her gaze from the sky and sighed heavily. It seems to be lamenting the weather, and it is also like saying that the outside area has finally been cleaned.
Clapping her hands, the girl pushed her eyes that were about to fall, and in her helplessness, she walked into the house. A short walk inside, there is a large hall. There is still a lively atmosphere unique to the New Year, but in the eyes of the girl, these are just things that make her feel heavy. New Year's or something, it didn't have much appeal to her. More than that, the small print in those books is far better than anything in the New Year. Whether it's a gift, or a good change or something.
Everyone in the family was still sleeping, and she felt that she must have made a wrong decision to wake up so early.
"Shako, so early!" came from behind the girl, an old man with half gray hair, about seventy or eighty years old. Even though the hall was heated, he was still wearing a thick padded jacket. The man looked very energetic, holding a rather large glass with half a glass of wine in it.
"Grandfather Durison, it's early. The girl who was called Sha Ke stopped what she was doing, looked at the old man on the second floor who was standing at the end of the hall at the moment, said hello, and began to clean the hall again.
"The second day of the new year was so energetic. Old man Dullison said as he poured himself a few sips of wine. This is what he has been used to for many years, "As soon as the New Year passes, time passes quickly." It's the end of January, and it's not long before the schools in the empire start a new semester. My dear granddaughter is going to a new school. ”
After saying that, he looked reluctant, but the old man Dulison had a smile on his face. As an old professor at one of the top schools in this port city, he is very tolerant of this kind of thing.
"Shako, do you still stick to your original decision? You also know their temper, saying that they will not give you tuition and living expenses, they will definitely do it. I've lived with them longer than you, and these things are still predictable. And you have younger siblings, once you leave here, if you want to see them, you have to wait until the long vacation to have a chance. ”
"There are also good schools here, and I also work there, so I can help you a lot. In my opinion, Manoma is not a great choice. Although the two best schools in the empire are there, the offer you received this time is not any of them, is it? From their affiliated schools, there is indeed a possibility of getting into those two schools, but for people like us, I can only tell you that our chances are almost non-existent. The people that the empire is currently lacking don't seem to be like us. ”
Dullison has tried to pick good words to say. Sheco is only eighteen years old now, and she reads a lot of books, but most of them are about history and paleontology. There is very little real understanding of the Empire. For such a rare granddaughter, Durison is of course very loving. He himself is this age, and of course his knowledge of the empire is much deeper than Sha Ke. He didn't want Shaco to get involved in anything bad, especially Manoma, who was the center of the imperial vortex.
In his eyes, it seems to be prosperous, but there are unimaginable dangers hidden in it. That's not something that can be avoided by saying I'll be careful. It's a monster with tentacles, and as long as you pass by him, you can get the whole person who passes by.
"Shako, you better think about it. I could have promised you anything before, but this is the only thing I think you need to be prepared for a complete rejection. Not just your parents, but also me. It's different from what you think, it's a big gap. If you just go to see it and play for a few days, I think anyone can agree to this request. But 、、、 to go there to study."
Dullison sighed before continuing, "It's not a place where people like us should stay. Speaking of prosperity, it is indeed a little worse than Manoma. But I think that for Shako, the necessity and demand for the prosperity of the region is not very great. After all, all you ask for is a book and a hut to read. ”
Dullison shook his head. Seeing that Sha Ke below the second floor was just cleaning the hall with his head down, he still wanted to say something, but he also closed his mouth at this time. Knowing that this matter was in a hurry, how happy Sha Ke was when he got the admission letter, he saw it with his own eyes on the side.
You'll have to give her some time to accept it. Dullison thought.
"On my side, I can go through the enrollment procedures at any time. Dullison said this as he watched quietly upstairs as Shaco cleaned the hall and went back to his room.
It wasn't until his grandfather was gone that Shako raised his head without any expression on his face. She had a plan in her heart, and in this matter, she had already decided by herself. So no matter what other people say, it won't have a great impact on her.
"The time is not far off. At last, Shako took the cleaning tools and swept the hall even harder.

The goods have been transferred. Roughly the same as what Kasia and Dyar predicted, there is still some space left on many heavy trucks. They are not greedy, and compared with the transportation costs of heavy trucks, this trip is obviously a good profit.
Dozens of heavy trucks followed the route originally planned by Dyera and went back to their large warehouse in Manoma overnight. The two heavy trucks containing steel canisters were driven by Kasia and Dya themselves.
"How long will it take for a few squad leaders to get moving?" The light is getting dim, and it won't be long before night comes. On the heavy truck, it was Kasia himself driving the car, Derya sitting next to him, and Waters in the cab.
"The sooner the better, you can inform them, and it's better not to leave the corpse behind, and take it back for unified disposal. Kasia said, adding an indescribable taste to her mouth. When he had only entered the military academy before, he thought that he would never become a person like Leigh and Kara, but now it seems that this change has never been unexpected. "Waters, a few of us in this convoy, please leave it to you. ”
"No problem. Waters smiled.
