Chapter 31

"Ah?" Joyson asked with a confused expression, "Why?"

Before Jiang Yunu directly rejected "Flea", that was actually the school that Joyson preferred in his heart.

However, Joyson's preference for "Fleabag" was not firm. The reason he chose it was simply because of the generous freshman benefits offered by "Fleabag". He was dazzled by the generous benefits listed in the enrollment information and fell deeply into the delicious pie painted by the school's enthusiastic efforts.

However, the problem Jiang Yunu pointed out hits the nail on the head - "Flea" can find complaints from students of the school on the Internet, saying that the school changes its policies every day, and anything that seems to be settled may be ruined again. Then "Flea" may really cancel the benefits at any time.

Transferring schools is not popular in this world. Once an underage psychic has chosen his or her favorite junior psychic school, submitted an application and was admitted, then for the next few years, the life and study of this underage psychic will be firmly tied to the school, and there is basically no possibility of leaving school or changing schools.

Once the "flea market" benefit is cancelled, it will be a big blow to students from ordinary families, such as Jiang Yunu and Qiao Yisen.

They would not choose to take such a risk.

Joyson now has some unconditional trust in Jiang Yunu. He feels that Jiang Yunu's brain works faster and more flexibly than his, and he seems to consider things more carefully. So he naturally thinks that what Jiang Yunu chooses must be the best.

Jiang Yunu said he wanted to choose his old school, and Qiao Yisen supported him unconditionally.

But when Jiang Yunu talked about the reason why she wanted to choose her old school... Qiao Yisen supported her, but still couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"You think it's not for you," Joyson said. "How can you still be interested in it?"

Jiang Yunu raised three fingers.

"Firstly, as an old school, although its current performance is not as good as it used to be, it still ranks quite high in the entire region and is even on par with the 'top school'. This shows that the 'top school' has only been able to reach the level of the old school that has stagnated in recent years thanks to the top school. This in turn indirectly proves that the educational quality of the old school is still guaranteed. Even if its innovation is a little lacking, its basic teaching is definitely very good."

Joyson thought thoughtfully.

Jiang Yunu broke off one of his fingers.

"Secondly, there's a saying that goes, 'A lean camel is bigger than a horse.' The old school has been in a 'low period' of development in recent years, and it must have experienced many difficulties. But it's amazing that it hasn't closed down and has persisted, which shows that the school's foundation is still very strong."

Only old schools with solid foundations can still strive to expand enrollment and pay out of their own pockets to strengthen benefits for new students in an attempt to attract more students to apply, even though their development has stagnated for a long time and their school rankings are becoming increasingly precarious.

"But," Joyson raised the question appropriately, "aren't you worried that, like with 'Fleabag,' if the school still doesn't develop well enough, the welfare policy might be canceled, or even like 'Roll King,' the subsidy rate might be reduced?"

Jiang Yunu suddenly smiled, and his smile revealed a hint of cunning and a hint of danger.

"That brings me back to what I said about it and me being a little incompatible." Jiang Yunu raised two fingers, then one, and smiled as she pointed out the third advantage of her old school. "This school has a rigorous ethos. It's said that everyone in the school is a bit methodical. I don't think it suits me because its rigidity clashes with my personality. But its rigidity also means that the school is very honest and trustworthy, and won't easily change its promises."

Simply put, the school is very "honest." Even if the students enrolled thanks to the new student benefits do not meet expectations, or if the school encounters new difficulties in its later development, this "honest" school will remember its original promise and grit its teeth to continue to provide what it promised.

Jiang Yunu accurately smelled the honesty of this old school.

After listening to Jiang Yunu's analysis, Qiao Yisen was greatly impressed and immediately felt that this honest school... oh no, old school was their best application target.

In the end, only one of the three school information sheets on the small table remained.

——Enge Primary School for Supernatural Powers.

Joyson excitedly began to search for the registration entrance of Enge Primary School for Supernatural Powers.

Jiang Yunu picked up the only information sheet left on the table and held it up to his eyes to take a look.

She had an additional reason for choosing this school, but she didn't share it with Joyson.

That was her little selfish desire.

Jiang Yunu would like some people and things that, even if they are in a trough, even if that trough period is very long, even if the person in the trough does not know how long this period will last, and does not know when it will end, still do not give up on themselves and are still trying hard to move forward.

Because that's how she got here.

The official website of Enge Junior School for Special Abilities is concise and efficient. The registration entrance is very easy to find, and the information required of applicants is also concise. Unlike some schools, it seems that they have to conduct background checks on students and would like to question their ancestors for 18 generations.

Using Joyce's personal terminal, Jiang Yunu filled out his own application and sent it to the school terminal together with Joyce's application.

After submitting his application, Joyson said, "I think you still need a personal terminal. Do you think it would be okay for me to write an additional application and ask Engel if he could issue a personal terminal to new students?"

Jiang Yunu said, "I think... it's not feasible, right?"

A personal terminal is one of the essential items for going to school. Jiang Yunu didn't think there was any problem without it in the past. But since she got an identity ID and her own personal account, when she wanted to register for school, she often found that she had to use Qiao Yisen's personal terminal and switch her account on the other party's device to write, send and check things, which was really not very convenient.

Joyson originally wanted to write an additional application himself, trying to exaggerate his family situation and make it seem more pitiful, asking the school to provide basic terminals to students who are in extreme difficulty, so that his current terminal could be given to Jiang Yunu.

But before Joyce's plan could be implemented, Qiao Daisi came home from get off work that day and saw Jiang Yunu and Joyce together refreshing their personal terminal mailboxes.

During the registration week, it took an average of two days for each junior supernatural school to process the applications.

Enger Primary School for Special Abilities is said to be more efficient, often replying to letters within 36 hours and sending admission confirmation notices to registered students.

Jiang Yunu and Qiao Yisen were waiting for notice. The standards of the welcome for Qiao Daisi were slightly lowered today, making Qiao Daisi feel that the doorstep was a little quieter today, not as noisy as usual when she entered the house.

This kind of quietness is a bit strange to get used to.

"Ahem." Jodaith cleared her throat at the door.

Jiang Yunu immediately raised his head from the terminal screen, jumped lightly from the chair beside the dining table, and hurried to greet Aunt Daisy who was accidentally ignored.

"Aunt Daisy, you're back?" Jiang Yunu greeted as he walked quickly to Qiao Daisy.

Joyson simply called out "Mom" from a distance and followed up with a welcome greeting, but his head was still lowered as he continued to refresh the screen.

He and Jiang Yunu had sent their admission applications almost 30 hours ago, which was still a long way from the average 36-hour processing time of the Enger Junior School of Special Abilities. However, Joyson was so eager to get the results that he was a little absent-minded all day. He couldn't focus on anything else and was only concentrating on waiting for the admission results.

Qiao Daisi naturally knew what the two children were busy with these days.

She is really Buddhist about her children's education. Her philosophy has always been "go to whichever school they are accepted into". As for school selection, she analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of each school, and finally weighed which school is more suitable for Jiang Yunu and Qiao Yisen. Qiao Daisi did not intervene in the whole process, letting the two 11-year-old children handle it on their own, and was happy to see their autonomy.

"This is the first major decision you'll make for yourself in your life," Aunt Daisy said at the time. She offered only one word of encouragement to Jiang Yunu and Qiao Yisen regarding their choice of school: "If you want to make a good choice, go and look around carefully."

This sentence can also be euphemistically said that she supports any choice made by the two.

Seeing Jiang Yunu was the first to run to her side, Qiao Daisi touched her head and rubbed Jiang Yunu's white hair.

"Good," said Jodaisi, "The first person who came to greet me was pretty much what I expected. It turns out that little girls are more considerate."

Joyson protested at the dining table, "Mom, I'm just constantly checking my school results."

Qiao Daisi said, "As soon as the school results come out, you don't need to refresh the page. The email reminder will automatically pop up on your terminal and you will hear a new message notification."

The implication is that it's a bit foolish for Joyson to just wait for the refresh.

However, Qiao Daisi did not continue to argue with Joeysen about this matter. She put the thing in her left hand into Jiang Yunu's hand.

When Aunt Daisy came home, she was carrying some discounted vegetables from the fresh supermarket, and in her other hand was the small shoulder bag she usually carried. When Jiang Yunu came to greet her, she had already consciously taken the vegetables over and sent the bag of fresh ingredients, still with water droplets on them, to the kitchen first.

She returned to the living room just as Jodie stuffed something new into her hands.

"What is this?" Jiang Yunu was stunned.

What I got was a box that looked small but was quite heavy.

Jiang Yunu saw the product picture on the box that looked like a watch.

"A back-to-school present for you." Aunt Daisy said casually.

"If you also want to continue refreshing your email and waiting for notifications, you can log in to your own account. You don't have to squeeze in with that silly boy Joeysen."

Qiao Daisi gave Jiang Yunu a brand new personal terminal.

Jiang Yunu didn't expect to receive a gift so suddenly. Qiao Daisi took out the black wristband personal terminal from the box as if she was giving the little girl an extra cabbage that she had forgotten in her bag, and then snapped it onto Jiang Yunu's wrist.

On the other side, Joyson suddenly jumped up, and his knees hit the bottom of the dining table hard.

"Hiss...it hurts, it hurts." The red-haired boy gasped, but his expression revealed joy, and he grinned with happiness.

Jiang Yunu turned around and met Joyson's "joyful and distorted" face.

Joyson grinned and cheered at her, "The acceptance letter has arrived!"

"Oh?" Qiao Daisi raised an eyebrow and patted Jiang Yunu's shoulder. "Hurry up and use your own personal terminal and log in to your own personal account to check."

Jiang Yunu then remembered that she had not yet thanked Qiao Daisi: "Thank you, Aunt Daisi, I..."

Aunt Daisy waved her hand to stop Jiang Yunu from continuing to say polite words of gratitude to her.

"Stop talking so much nonsense," Jodaisi said. "Hurry up and show Auntie your admission results. Your acceptance letter has arrived. This is the biggest thank you I can give you today."

Jiang Yunu's lips curled up at the straightforward kindness. She quickly activated the terminal and bound her personal account.

Almost the next second after the account was logged in, there was a "ding" sound, and a small envelope icon popped up in the upper right corner of the main interface of the personal terminal.

Jiang Yunu switched to the letter notification interface and found a new letter in her mailbox.

——【Admission Letter】
