Hunting High School

Chapter 318: The Undercurrent Under The Dawn

The witch didn't take out the book in the end.

She stood in the doorway, and the light poured in from behind, leaving a long, thick shadow on the doorway, slanting, and pointing straight at the old wizard sitting on the side of the room.

The old wizard tugged at his beard anxiously.

There was silence in the conference room.

There was no other sound except the ticking of the clock.

After a short pause, the witch lifted her foot and walked into the meeting room.

Tap, tap, tap.

The long skirt dragged on the floor like a surging tide, and the crisp knocking sound of the heels when they fell was like the sound of drums beating before the battle started.

Without any redundant words or actions, just this simple action of entering the door will bring great pressure to everyone in the door. At the same time, a majestic momentum unique to great wizards rushed towards the face along with the tide and the sound of drums, making the young assistants behind the questioning committee members almost breathless.

Fortunately, the committee members who were in charge of the questioning were also of the rank of great wizards. They simply sat there, but stood upright, like a towering cliff in front of a huge wave, stopping the follow-up oppression of the members of the next month's parliament.

Tick, tick, tick.

On the conference table, in the dial of the desk clock, the second hand skipped one tick after another, without stopping. This stability and persistence slowly dissipated the energy that was silently colliding in the room.

Su Shijun raised his chin slightly, revealing his white and slender neck, restraining his coercion proudly.

The round-faced witch sitting behind the conference table looked at the slender figure walking into the conference room, and felt that the whole room was brighter instantly, so she couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly.

Finally, sitting on her left, the old wizard named James spoke first.

"you are late."

The old wizard broke the awkward silence he had caused with a dry voice.

Su Shijun took off his cloak and hat, and handed them over to a group of elves in blue-gray uniforms. He didn't answer the old wizard's words directly, but glanced at the clock on the conference table, and smiled slightly:

"Beautiful clock...was it made by Brother Hooker?"

Hook Brothers Watch Shop is the most famous watch manufacturer in the wizarding world, almost monopolizing the production and sales of all high-end clocks and pocket watches on the market.

"Not every exquisite clock belongs to Hook Brothers," the old wizard heaved a sigh of relief for some reason, but his face was still stern, and his tone was a bit blunt:

"It's a 'Persian Revival' piece from the great colonial era...made in 1780, when the Hooker Brothers were still learning how to make gears."

"It's impressive." The witch complimented without sincerity, and sat in the own seat, a large armchair in the center of the conference room.

The armrests of the chair are wrapped with several strong leather ropes, which are covered with fine runes interlaced with gold and silver.

After Su Shijun sat down, he straightened his body, and naturally placed his arms on the armrests on both sides. The leather ropes shook his body quite emotionally, as if they wanted to tie the witch's arms to the armrests, and then the witch raised her left index finger , knocked on the wooden handrail.

Da da.

The chair let out an innocent scream, and the shimmering runes on several leather ropes went out one after another, as if snow water had fallen on the charcoal fire, leaving nothing but coldness and loneliness.

The witch raised her head and looked ahead. It seemed that she was not a witch who was being questioned for suspected violation of the "Wizard Code", but a queen who was being interviewed by her subjects.

It's just that the questioning committee members sitting behind the conference table are not ordinary wizards.

They quickly got rid of the witch's momentum. After the gray-haired old wizard realized that the topic was led by the witch, he immediately gave up the plan to continue the conversation, and even skipped the basic identity verification steps, and started the inquiry very simply. model:

"Thank you," he first affirmed the witch's praise for the clock, and immediately began to question: "...but that's not the point. The point is that, according to the relevant regulations, before any member of the next month's council enters the M4 laboratory of the First University, All need to sign a binding agreement not to conduct dimensional fluctuation experiments under the supervision of the alliance..."

"Yes." Su Shijun interrupted the old wizard, and replied very positively.

The old wizard just got up and stagnated slightly.

Immediately, a hint of annoyance flashed in his eyes, and after a momentary pause, his voice raised slightly: "...But you didn't sign! The 2D Evolution Laboratory of the Ascending Dimension Experimental Research Institute of the First University's Applied Magic Research Institute belongs to the m4 level Magic laboratory, seven hours and thirteen minutes ago, you conducted a dangerous dimension-related experiment in this laboratory, which once caused the space crystal wall in some areas of Buji Island to weaken, and the breath of another world leaked. This is a very important experiment ACCIDENT……"

Su Shijun frowned slightly, with a hint of trouble in his eyes.

That's why, she doesn't like to deal with the old guys in the league. They always like to make a fuss—or choose to make a fuss—like a group of sharks who smell a little blood. These people who have lost their creativity and courage to explore The old man, however, occupies the upper layer of the 'magic creature chain', greedily snatching all the benefits they can see.

"... Evidence shows that this is not the first time you have conducted related dimension experiments." The old wizard seemed not to notice the subtle changes in the witch's expression, and continued to question with a loud voice: "From October 30 to November 2 last year In the meantime, when the First University held a school hunting competition, Phuket Island recorded an S-level threatening magic accident, causing serious injuries to several registered researchers, and a M4-level magic laboratory was completely destroyed..."

"If I remember correctly," Su Shijun interrupted the questioning of the old wizard James, and said a little annoyedly: "The accident last year has been dealt with by the relevant departments of the First University...the corresponding procedures are in compliance with the requirements. Could it be that every case I made before Are you going to list all the experimental accidents?"

James lowered his eyelids and moved his fingers slightly, as if he was flipping through the materials on the table.

"The 'relevant departments' of the First University involved dereliction of duty and abuse of power in the handling of that case, and the alliance has issued a letter of concern for dereliction of duty to the school." The old wizard curled his fingers and tapped on the table: "... to get further information from the school. Before the explanation, it will not affect us to combine the two cases for questioning."

"Do you have any objection to the above question?" The round-faced witch interjected at the right time, looking gently at the witch sitting in the middle of the conference room.

Su Shijun took a deep breath, and straightened his body even more.

"Yes." She was still a little uncertain about what the old fellows of the League wanted to do, so her words were very cautious: "First, any experiment I conduct must be approved by the joint meeting of safety assessment and professors of the school work committee. , there is no violation of the experimental behavior; second, the weakening of the crystal wall and the invasion of another world breath that appeared in the school a few hours ago, including the disappearance of several students in the museum, have nothing to do with my experiment; third, the experiment related to dimensions, not dimensional fluctuations experiment."

"Ahem," the skinny wizard who had been silent from the beginning finally coughed twice and sighed: "So, did the impact earlier cause a few students to get lost in the space-time rift?"
