My Elf Simulator
Chapter 184 A sudden departure
On August 15, the third day after his first provincial competition, Hei Ze returned to Haitang City.
When he left the high-speed rail station, he was surrounded again.
Although the Haitang team did not achieve a major breakthrough in the 2022 Hanquan Provincial A-level League, for most fans, they are already satisfied.
Hei Ze has begun to show his prowess throughout the province, and they are also proud of it as hometown people.
At present, Hei Ze's core fan group has expanded from two to four.
The main members of groups one, two and three are old fans of Haitang, and group four is mainly fans outside Haitang City.
The number of people in each group has also expanded from the initial 200 to 500, 2,000, and now 3,000 people are full.
Even so, it is necessary to regularly clean up users who have not spoken for a long time to make room for other friends.
Hei Ze has joined all four groups, but basically only lurks and does not speak.
An interesting thing to say is that because he had been lurking in the group for a long time and had no chat level, he was even kicked out of the group chat by the group manager as a zombie fan. It was the group owner Tian Cheng who found out that he was not in the group and pulled him in again.
The air in Haitang City is very good.
The blue sky and white clouds, and various evergreen plants clinging on the walls are very pleasing to the eye.
Hundreds of miles away, Changchuan City is holding an exciting finals, but that has nothing to do with Kurosawa.
Kurosawa walked out of the high-speed rail station and had breakfast at a rice noodle roll shop.
After the provincial competition, he gave himself a two or three-day vacation, and felt that his body was rusty.
After walking and digesting breakfast, he and the three elves ran quickly on the slope and ran towards the elf base in the city center.
It is now the hottest time of August, and the breath of summer shrouds the entire Haitang town.
The school has been closed, and the roadside is full of young boys and girls dressed up in vigor.
Three children sat on the steps at the entrance of the supermarket, licking and shaking the green popsicles in their hands to play.
Kurosawa adjusted his breath and ran, enjoying the summer scenery. Little Shining and Nightmare floated behind Kurosawa and flew in the sky.
Mumu in the form of a silkworm sat obediently behind Nightmare, his eyes half-closed, his body shaking gently at a subtle frequency. It seemed a little nervous flying in the sky for the first time.
Kurosawa ran very fast and looked very smooth.
People on the street couldn't even see his face clearly, they could only vaguely see a nimble figure flashing in the corner of their eyes.
"Hey! Xiaoze!"
Kurosawa's forehead secreted a few beads of sweat, and he could vaguely hear a sound in the wind.
"Duoduoduo."
He ran back to the direction where the sound came from.
He turned his head to look at a window of the second-floor attic next to the street.
There was a person leaning against the window frame inside and greeting him.
Kurosawa was a little surprised and waved to him.
"It's you, come in and have some watermelon."
"Don't run, I'll come down and open the door."
As if afraid that Kurosawa would run away, he jumped off the windowsill and walked into the house, his voice getting quieter and quieter, and then there was a clear sound of going down the stairs.
"Crack——"
The man turned the door on the street.
"Coach Wang, so you live here."
Kurosawa took out a pack of tissues from the storage bracelet and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The person who called him was his coach Wang Jun at the Senli Club.
"Well, didn't I quit my job to concentrate on preparing for the league's exam before, so I moved out and lived alone." Coach Wang scratched his head.
"Come in and sit down, the place is a little small, don't mind."
He made way.
Kurosawa walked into the door.
The entrance is long and narrow, with wardrobes and shoe racks on both sides.
After passing the entrance, there is a living room on the first floor.
"Coach, how did you do in the exam?"
Kurosawa noticed that he was in high spirits when he talked about the exam just now, and he had a rough guess, so he asked with concern.
It seems that the alliance will accept new staff during the summer vacation.
"Haha, I just received the offer letter a few days ago. I just barely made it. There's nothing I can do. I'm too old to pass the exam. Fortunately, my status as an elf master lowered my score a bit." Wang Jun scratched his head and said with a smile.
Hei Ze was also really happy for him.
"Congratulations, coach. I'll have to rely on you to take care of me in the Haitang Alliance in the future."
"Haha, you're making me blush."
Not every elf master can always be active on the front line, especially for registered elf masters. Although they can earn income by taking on low-level alliance tasks, commissions from others, and working in various training institutions, it takes a lot of consumption to maintain the combat capability of the elves. The elf food and various supplies alone are a considerable expense. If you want to enhance your advanced strength, the expenses will be even greater.
Finding a satisfactory job is a good choice.
Sitting in the living room, Wang Jun opened him an iced watermelon.
Chatting while eating watermelon.
Kurosawa noticed the teacup monkey on the table and looked around the small living room.
"Coach, have the other two elves been sent away?"
He took a bite of the watermelon. In the hot summer, the flesh was crushed in his mouth to produce light red sweet juice.
"Woo——"
Wang Jun nodded.
"It's too much of a burden. The little monkey eats little and has a quiet personality, so I kept it."
Kurosawa was not surprised by his choice. If they bid farewell to their identity as elf masters, many people would choose to hand over their elves to the alliance or researchers for raising.
If they have to work on weekdays, the time they spend with them will be greatly reduced. Elves can easily get sick if they stay at home. Keeping them in flash cards is not the solution. Giving them to other formal institutions to raise them is not a good idea for these people and their elves. , are all good things.
The two chatted while eating fruit, and the topics ranged from Changchuan's provincial competition to past club affairs to league work.
Suddenly, Wang Jun told Kurosawa a piece of news that surprised Kurosawa.
"Minister Palace is leaving?"
It took Kurosawa a long time to swallow the pulp in his throat and rub his temples.
"Yeah, didn't you receive the message?" Wang Jun was particularly puzzled. "I heard from other colleagues at the induction training two days ago that a new minister will come to Haitang to take over Minister Gong's position in the near future. Minister Gong seems to be transferred to Zhongdu."
Kurosawa shook his head. He took a deep breath and calmed down.
During this time, he was competing in Changchuan and taking vacations. He was hundreds of miles away and had relatively little information.
Gong Lihua herself has been busy with work in the provincial capital and has not had much contact with her these days.
This is really weird.
For example, the replacement of new and old leaders of municipal alliance branches is often not too frequent. A few years is considered short, and terms of more than ten years are common.
It took about half a year for Gong Lihua to arrive.
Kurosawa's mood was complicated.
The transfer from Haitang City to the capital Zhongdu, even if the position is lowered, is still considered a promotion, which should be a good thing for Gong Lihua.
After staying at Coach Wang's house for another ten minutes, Kurosawa said goodbye and left.
Back at the Haitang Elf Base, Kurosawa found out that Gong Lihua had returned to the office building.
He quickly took the elevator to the top floor.
Inside the top floor office.
Gong Lihua leaned over the desk to sign documents, and Chi Lei stood beside her holding a thick folder.
Hearing the slightly urgent knock on the door, Gong Lihua stretched out her hand and pinched her eyebrows.
"come in."
Kurosawa opened the door.
Gong Lihua seemed not surprised by his arrival and smiled kindly.
"minister."
Kurosawa's eagerness to seek an explanation calmed down a lot the moment he opened the door.
"Sister Hua, I heard you are leaving?"
He ran all the way, panting slightly.
"Minister, I'm going out first." Seeing that the two of them had something to discuss, Chi Lei excused herself and left the office.
Gong Lihua moved the document aside and nodded quietly.
"Because of some important things, I have to go to Zhongdu and stay for a long time."
"Actually, we should have left more than half a month ago, but Haitang had some finishing work to deal with, so it was postponed until now."
"Then Sister Hua, you should have told me earlier, it's so sudden." Kurosawa sighed.
Gong Lihua pursed her lips, with a rare tangled look on her cheeks.
"I originally wanted to tell you earlier, but after all, this is your first time in the provincial competition. I was afraid that you would be thinking about other things, so I simply waited until I returned to Haitang after the competition to mention it to you. I didn't expect you to be well-informed."
"What's wrong? I can't bear to leave. Just because I'm going to Zhongdu this time doesn't mean we won't be able to see each other again. Our relationship will still not change."
Kurosawa sat on his chair and nodded silently.
"How about I take you to Zhongdu with me? Although I don't have much free time there, it should be no problem to continue teaching you. The two of us, master and apprentice, will go to the capital to "progress"."
"However, I am just worried that you are too far away from home and will miss home easily."
Gong Lihua smiled.
Kurosawa shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He actually thought clearly, but the news came too suddenly and he couldn't accept it for a while.
Now Gong Lihua is coaxing him like a child, and he is relieved a little bit, and there is no banquet in the world that never ends.
"I won't be your drag queen. Sister Hua, you are right. There will be many opportunities to meet in the future."
First of all, Gong Lihua left so suddenly, she must have a heavy task after arriving in Zhongdu.
If he follows her, it will only cause trouble for her.
Secondly, what can he do after going to Zhongdu? Going to the capital too early may not be beneficial to his growth plan.
Regardless of his emotional or rational thinking, his decision to go north to Zhongdu with Gong Lihua was not a good idea.
Gong Lihua lowered her head and smiled, with a look of helplessness in her eyes that seemed to be glowing.
She had already guessed that Kurosawa would not agree to this proposal.
She knew Kurosawa's character very well. He usually seemed very talkative and amiable, and didn't like to have conflicts with others, but he had a strong sense of self-esteem.
Even though the two of them had established a master-disciple relationship, and she usually imparted skills and knowledge, he always had the attitude of being indebted to her.
He wanted to provide the magical resources for his practice but was rejected. He always wanted to do something for her elsewhere, cooking, exercising with her, and coming to take care of her when she was sick. It was as if he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't do something. .
When he goes to Zhongdu, he will definitely not go to enjoy the blessings as a "vassal" of Gong Lihua, but to make his way in [Zhongdu] as the elf master Kurosawa.
"Are you just going to reject it like this? Master, I'm a little sad." Gong Lihua raised her eyebrows.
"Well, just go and enjoy yourself. Sister Hua, you might be able to see me in Zhongdu in a few years."
Kurosawa smiled confidently.
In a few years, he believed that his strength would make a big breakthrough.
"That being said, I also have confidence in your talent, but to be honest, I couldn't bear to leave you alone here. I didn't have time to teach you many things."
Gong Lihua sighed.
When she accepted Kurosawa as her apprentice, she sincerely felt that she would teach him for many years.
Although it was her first time to accept an apprentice, she really put a lot of effort into Kurosawa.
At first, she saw that Kurosawa's core elf was a dodo bird, and she wanted to ask someone to find a high-quality initial elf cub with good talent, but later she found that Kurosawa's dodo bird was not ordinary, so she temporarily put aside her thoughts.
Kurosawa had communicated with her and wanted to take the elite route. He wanted to train each elf carefully and did not want to blindly expand the number of elves.
Although she felt it was not realistic, she still encouraged Kurosawa's idea.
Her medicine refining level was average, and she spent a lot of effort to dilute and mix the visualization method to the standard that Kurosawa could eat.
She even fantasized about teaching Kurosawa to be better than herself, so that those stubborn old guys could see.
It's a pity that the separation came so suddenly.
"Sister Hua, don't say that. You have helped me a lot."
"Not really." Gong Lihua paused and took out a blue-lined envelope from his jacket pocket.
The letter was sealed with a golden wax in the shape of an eagle.
"Take this letter."
"Go to Nandu and find Jinling University, my alma mater. September is also the season for freshmen to report."
"Even if I'm not here, your growth rate in Jinling University will only be faster, not slower,"
"Jinling University?"
Kurosawa took the envelope hesitantly and could probably guess what was inside. It should be a special letter of introduction from Jinling University.
Jinling University is one of the three top universities in Haihua Country.
Kurosawa had heard of this university since elementary school.
"Of course, whether you go or not is up to you. I just asked a friend for a letter of recommendation. If you are willing, you can join the school without taking the test."
Gong Lihua saw the embarrassment on Kurosawa's face and added.
"You don't have to give it back to me. This is a recommendation letter for you. If you don't use it, it will just be a piece of waste paper."
"I should still be in Haitang these days. Come to me at 3 pm every day, and I will pass on some prescriptions that you may need."
"Thank you, teacher." Kurosawa held the envelope, and his heart felt heavier.
"You're welcome. You should work harder on your own in the future."
Gong Lihua reached out to touch Kurosawa's head, hesitated for a moment, and patted his shoulder instead.
Late at night.
Kurosawa lay on the bed.
He held an envelope high in his hand.
He was dazed.
In fact, he could understand that the letter in his hand was not as cheap as Gong Lihua said.
If it was just an ordinary recommendation letter for admission, with his current level of strength, he should be able to get it by finding a way.
But the letter in front of him was not an ordinary recommendation letter, but a recommendation letter from the School of Elves of Jinling University.
One thing that must be pointed out is that the elf schools of the three top universities are not student clubs, but a special organization of a very high level, similar to the existence of the top elf club, and can even be regarded as a streamlined and higher-level alliance branch.
Master elf masters, top academic researchers, powerful people, and talented newcomers.
It can be said that the three major metropolitan areas of Zhongdu, Dongdu, and Nandu have an unparalleled influence in Haihua Country, which is inseparable from the schools of the three top universities.
What makes Kurosawa even more excited is that by joining the school, he can gain more knowledge and skills, and it is easier to get in touch with elf battles in different regions and even countries.
Moreover, the management is not too strict, and the school members have a high degree of freedom. They can still return to their cities and provinces at any time to participate in local competitions or go out for training, which is indeed very suitable for his growth direction.
I owe more favors.
Kurosawa sighed and turned over in bed.
