Crown of Silence

Chapter 157 The Beautiful Life of College Shame (Part 1)

Two days later, afternoon, Royal Academy of Music

After days of heavy rain, the intense heat since midsummer seems to have left. The lingering fog in the Lower City seems to symbolize the coming of autumn.

Even the scorching sun is no longer so hot. In the afternoon, the warm sunshine falls gently from the sky, shining warmly on people.

Even the academy, which was always surrounded by a gloomy atmosphere, seemed to become clear and glowing, making people feel at ease involuntarily.

But on the street outside the Department of Music and History, the girl was wandering uneasily.

As if there was something scary at the end of the road, the girl with a ponytail stood at the intersection, looking behind him hesitantly, not daring to move forward.

"Come on, Shirley, you can do it."

Shirley pinched the corner of her clothes and murmured in a low voice to cheer herself up. The pale cheeks that were originally a little scared gradually calmed down, and the panic was carefully hidden, turning into a serious and serious look.

Feeling that her mood was calm, she breathed a sigh of relief, clenched her fists hard, and stared at the building of the Department of Music and History, her eyes solemn and decisive, as if staring at the enemy of life and death, the source of all evil!

Shirley is one of the apprentices who just enrolled this year. However, due to physical problems, she had to undergo emergency recuperation for a period of time after enrolling and only came back two days ago.

But when she returned to the academy, she realized that everything had changed.

The school that was originally harmonious, pleasant, and full of gentlemanly demeanor has changed. Every apprentice is at war with each other, looking at each other like enemies. Every day, there is news that someone was unfortunately injured during the duel.

The polite nobles were maliciously humiliated by the common people, which made Shirley feel sad. When she tried to mediate, she would receive sneering looks from the common people. Some people just persuaded Shirley not to care about these things, while others People ridiculed her and regarded her as a rich young lady who didn't understand anything.

She is not that kind of person!

All the servants knew that Miss Shirley was most concerned about their sufferings. Every time she went to the lower city, Shirley could not help but shed tears of sympathy when she saw the beggars and gave them her money.

Seeing them leaving happily, Shirley felt the practical significance of the nobles' existence: Sure enough, the Blood of Glory exists to make Avalon a better place!

My elder brother, younger brother, and father all agreed very much with his good deeds. They all said, 'The common people just don't know the rules. As long as the nobles teach them well, everyone can live happily. ’

This makes Shirley even more convinced of how important the noble example is!

But now, all this has changed.

The academy is almost in disarray! It was no longer the warm, harmonious family she had imagined.

Shirley was worried and sad about this, trying to figure out what was going on. But she could hear the same name in everyone's mouth.

The source of all this chaos, a synonym for evil, the culprit who turned the academy into this...

——Ye Qingxuan!

"He's a villain, Shirley! Do you understand villains?"

Cousin Bart, who had not recovered from his serious injury, had a face filled with sadness and indignation. He waved his fist and said to her: "That damn oriental, a barbarian who doesn't know the rules. Not only did he shamelessly steal our glory, but he also used despicable means to defeat Egypt. Demon, and seriously injured him.”

"That's right!" Another student next to his hospital bed said angrily, "It's all this damn guy's fault."

"Don't mention his name!" the mentally weak student screamed: "Don't mention that shame of the Royal Academy of Music! That Oriental!"

"Orientals? Where are the Orientals?!"

Jon, who was sleeping, was awakened. When he heard the name, he suddenly stood up from the bed: "Here comes someone! Help me up, I'm going to challenge him!"

What are you doing? I'm going to challenge him! Don't stop me, I'm going to... ugh. "

Before Jon could finish speaking, he was picked up by the nurse next to him, gagged, and sent to the emergency room: "Doctor, the person in bed 06 is sick again!"

Shirley watched her brother Jon fade away with tears in her eyes, feeling the pain and sadness from her heart.

Why does this happen? Cousin Bart and Brother Jon are all very good people! Why did that guy have to turn them into this?

At that moment, the girl decided.

She wants to change everything, change this cruel reality, and save the endangered Royal College of Music. She must stand up bravely and become... a hero!

Thinking of this, Shirley was suddenly filled with courage, walked up the path with her head held high, and walked towards the dark core of the academy, looking for the villain Ye Qingxuan.

Soon, she screamed, turned around and crawled out of the path, hiding behind the statue and trembling.

terrible! terrible! This place is simply too scary...it actually houses such terrifying monsters.

While she was trembling, the huge, golden monster with a small hairpin on its head walked past her with leisurely and calm steps. Seeing her trembling look, he burst into tears. Open your mouth and look proud.

"Woof! Woof! Woof!!!" It roared loudly, trying to pounce and bite.

"ah!!!"

Shirley screamed and collapsed on the ground, unable to get up.

"Tsk, what's wrong with you? Suddenly you can't get up from your knees. Are you trying to blackmail me?"

Next to the big golden-haired monster, the girl with an unhappy expression looked at her askance: "It's so strange to see it, haven't you seen a dog before?"

"I, I, I..."

Shirley held her head and raised her eyes carefully. She was stunned when she saw Bai Xi: "Are you that Oriental?"

"Tsk, are you here to challenge again?"

The white-haired girl curled her lips and pointed behind her: "Do you see that road? Go straight and turn right. Just go to the end."

"oh."

Shirley timidly got up from the ground and carefully stayed away from the terrifying monster that was too big to look like... was that a dog? Don't lie! She obviously had a dog before, but how could a dog be so big? The Chihuahua her uncle gave her was only the size of a palm!

It must be a monster! demon!

When she thought of that Oriental man raising demons in the academy, the cowardly Shirley felt a wave of indignation and lawlessness. No wonder so many classmates are so afraid of him!

Seeing Bai Xi leading the golden monster away, she took a deep breath and set foot on the road again.

——This time, that guy must not continue to wreak havoc!

She held her head high and stepped onto the trail again.

After passing through the dense woods, stepping on the withered yellow leaves, and enduring the flying mosquitoes, she finally saw clearly the gloomy building in front of her after crossing the long road.

Just behind the towering woods, the dilapidated small building stood in the darkness, covered with moss and cracks, exuding an eerie chill.

Just on the wall, the crack opened wildly, as if smiling evilly at Shirley.

Shirley's legs went weak, and she felt the urge to run away again.

But soon, she finally discovered her target - the mastermind behind turning the academy into such a mess!

On the field in front of the small building, the sun shines and illuminates the stone bricks on the ground.

In that ray of warm sunshine, there was a large and comfortable sofa, and there was a glass of freshly squeezed apple juice on the coffee table next to the sofa.

A hand stretched out from the sofa and snapped his fingers. The notes and frost stained the cup with a layer of white frost, and then the cold juice was sucked into a sinful mouth along the straw.

Just on the sofa, the lazy boy was wearing a colorful short-sleeved shirt and a pair of knee-length shorts, lying on his back on the sofa, with his feet exposed.

He wore a pair of sunglasses on his face, and his hair shone like silver under the sunlight. His expression was leisurely and comfortable, as if he was bored and enjoying the summer sunshine.

It’s just...it doesn’t seem that bad, right? !

No, no, Shirley, you have to be careful and don’t be fooled by his appearance...

Shirley rubbed her face vigorously, took a deep breath, and then slowly, seriously, and bit by bit moved in the direction of the oriental boy.

There were no attacks, no traps, and no net dropped from the sky to catch her. Then the young man from the East rushed up, tied her up, and did something to her that is always omitted in the book but must have been very important. What a shame!

But Shirley still didn't relax her guard. She finally walked up to the young man, looked down at him, and asked in a trembling voice:

"Excuse me...are you Ye Qingxuan?"

-

In confusion, Ye Qingxuan felt a shadow covering his body. He slowly opened his eyes and saw a nervous girl staring at him.

It's like staring at something scary, that look is extremely weird...

Wait, isn't that a group of noble factions plotting something else? !

"Excuse me...are you Ye Qingxuan?"

Ye Qingxuan pulled down his sunglasses with one finger, raised his eyes to see her nervous look, but saw nothing.

After a long time, he realized that remaining silent like this was not an option, so he nodded slowly.

"kindness."

Shirley's face turned pale instantly: It was really him! It's really him! It’s really that Eastern Devil!

Under that 'aggressive' gaze, which seemed to be 'for sale', her legs softened and she almost sat down on the ground.

No, Shirley, you can’t lose! You are the queen of a famous family! You are the pride of the family! How could he fall in this place?

She took a deep breath and challenged the 'sin' loudly with a trembling tone:

"——Please stop doing this!"

"..."

Ye Qingxuan was silent for a long time. He looked at the little girl confused and began to wonder if there was something wrong with his mind.

But in Shirley's view, he was already irritated by himself, by his fearless courage to provoke evil!

She was obviously getting more and more scared, but she tried her best to put on a 'serious' and 'solemn' look and looked back hard!

Can't lose, Shirley! Don't give in to evil!

After a long awkward silence, Ye Qingxuan made a confused voice:

"Um?"

"It's, it's... the chief student's matter."

Shirley finally opened her mouth and solemnly said the lines she had prepared: "'Cheating' is a provocation to the rules of the academy and a despicable act that violates the spirit of chivalry!

And even the chief student obtained in this way is meaningless. And bullying your classmates can only prove that your mind is not sound! Why do we have to fight and kill? Isn’t it good for everyone to live in harmony? ! "

"……oh."

After a long time, Ye Qingxuan nodded slowly and said softly: "Can you move a little to the left?"

"Huh?" Shirley was stunned.

"You are blocking my sun exposure."
