Monster Hunting High School

"The news this time is different from the usual ones!"

Fatty Xin looked at everyone with a mysterious face, took out a crumpled piece of parchment from his pocket, and defended in a low voice: "——This time someone really witnessed the appearance of the monster! Ten Come on, Mi Gao, the real monster! This is top-secret news that I plan to publish in the school newspaper. Just read it and don’t tell anyone else!”

As he spoke, he spread the paper on the dining table and smoothed it carefully.

At the same time, he straightened his back and turned his head around like a radar, alerting himself to all figures approaching this corner.

Zheng Qing glanced at the monster with long arms and legs, a bug head, and a sharp tail on the parchment. He was stunned for only a few seconds before he couldn't help laughing.

"why are you laughing?"

"——It looks so strange."

"Don't you believe it?"

"No, no, I believe it, I believe it, I just think that there should be many witnesses to the appearance of such a ten-meter-tall monster on Phuket Island!" Zheng Qing naturally could not admit that the 'Marginal Type 1' on the paper was related to him.

"How could there be so many witnesses in the middle of the night!"

The fat wizard shook his head and did not give his companions more opportunities to study. He quickly put away the parchment, cleared his throat, and jumped to another possibility: "——Some people said that there was a person in the school. A professor stole confidential experimental materials and escaped, causing the teaching assistants to search everywhere... It is said that he was seduced by the Dark Council. "

This is a new statement.

At the very least, before last year's Black Prison War, no one was throwing dirt on that secret organization. In other words, most of the wizards in the school at that time did not know that there was a Dark Parliament.

"——Another theory that is less likely is that there is news that a certain student organization held an illegal sacrifice in the Silent Forest and created a monster, but it failed to control it. The monster ran away and was frightened. The students reported it to the school, and then there was this big search. Of course, everyone saw what the monster looked like just now.”

At the end of the sentence, the fat wizard gave Zheng Qing a meaningful look and added: "——Those who hold this statement are probably influenced by the great wizard in the North District."

A year later, many details of Kolma's initial advancement have been spread intermittently through various major families and different organizations in the alliance. If it weren’t for the school’s strict defense, I don’t know how many imitators there would be in the school! After all, for many wizards, the great wizard has been an existence that they can only hope to achieve throughout their lives.

As for the rumor that it would be linked to illegal sacrifices.

Probably because after the accident in Colma, the reaction of the school's protective circle and the teaching assistant team was a little excessive, which left a very deep impression on many people.

However, Fatty Xin scoffed at this speculation, shook his head, and briefly summarized the remaining possibilities: "——Some people think that the school assistant team is conducting night training, or assisting the alliance in hunting down the fleeing gangsters. Wizard, just like the time we dealt with Whateley during the winter vacation... All in all, I haven't heard very convincing news yet."

"That 'assistant coaching staff night training' guess is very reliable." Zheng Qing twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at the last piece of fried chicken fillet on the plate in front of him, and was about to fork it, as if he thought of something.

Look at the indifferent fat wizard again.

Finally, he couldn't help but asked the confusion that had been lingering in his mind: "—Fat man, are you on a diet today? How could you resist grabbing the fried chicken fillet on my plate for so long!"

Hearing this, Xiao Xiao lowered his head and adjusted his glasses.

The fat wizard drooped his face and said angrily: "Stop it! Try eating three breakfasts in the morning... and see if you can still eat anything else at noon!"

"He brought you a breakfast." Xiao Xiao reminded from the side: "But you were sleeping, and he couldn't waste it... so he ate yours too."

"Then I only ate two portions..."

"He bought two copies for himself." Xiao Xiao sighed.

Zheng Qing shook his head, picked up the last fried chicken fillet, and looked at Xiao Xiao: "——What about you? They both went to inquire. It makes no sense that you didn't dig out any information."

"Not really."

Dr. Xiao shrugged his shoulders: "Sima just told me to study hard recently, concentrate on the exam, and not worry about those messy things."

"These words sound like they were told to Brother Scumbag."

The fat wizard couldn't help complaining: "Brother scumbag has to graduate early, so he has to waste so much time on studying... You are a special admissions student with thick eyebrows and big eyes. You get 100% in every exam. You need so much Are you serious about taking an ordinary final exam?"

"It's not ordinary. The exam related to promotion is not ordinary at all." Xiao Xiao first corrected the fat wizard's wording, then paused, looked around hesitantly, and finally dropped a bomb: " Besides—you two, don’t you have any plans to graduate early?”

Zheng Qingwu was wondering which was more likely, the wild monster escaping or the black magic ritual going out of control, and didn't pay attention to the doctor's words.

Zhang Jixin looked confused and scratched his head.

Fatty Xin's face instantly turned blue.

"Graduate early? Us?"

He pointed at the red-faced wizard, then pointed back at himself, and laughed: "Are you kidding me!... He can earn enough credits every school year and be promoted to the next level safely, unlike Nicholas." Thank God for repeating the grade! I graduated early! It’s true that a hungry man doesn’t know how to be hungry.”

At the end of his speech, his voice became smaller and smaller, as if he was gradually realizing something.

Zhang Jixin asked for him.

"What do you mean by 'plan to graduate early'?" He stared at the doctor with unexpected sensitivity.

Xiao Xiao adjusted his glasses as usual.

"Professor Yi chatted with me a few days ago," he cleared his throat. After all, he did not reveal his many speculations. He just explained lightly: "My elders in the family contacted him and hoped that I would graduate and go home early... …I was naturally unwilling. But Professor Yi felt that it was better not to get too involved with my family, so he suggested that I graduate early and try to stay in school. This way, both sides could have an explanation. It shouldn’t be difficult to get a teaching assistant or researcher position in the school..."

"So, you are also going to graduate early?" the fat wizard shouted, attracting curious glances from around him.

"With your doctorate results, it's normal to graduate early." Zhang Jixin seemed to understand very well. He patted the fat wizard on the shoulder comfortingly and turned to look at Xiao Xiao: "Is that why Sima asked you to concentrate on the exam? Actually, there is no need to be in such a hurry. , like Brother Qing, it’s not too late to study the class schedule during the summer vacation..."

He instinctively thought that Xiao Xiao was planning to apply for early graduation next semester.

Xiao Xiao laughed dryly, and his voice became much softer: "It's too late for summer vacation. The professor wants me to apply for early graduation this semester."

"What about your class schedule?" Zhang Jixin was also stunned: "What about the exam? There are less than two weeks left before the end of the semester!"

Xiao Xiao glanced at Zheng Qing, who was also in a sluggish state, and sighed: "The class schedule can be reissued, and the exam... just like the fat man said just now, I just choose those courses that can get credits."

He was the only one who could say such irritating words casually.

"Grass!"

The fat wizard finally dropped such a word.
