Chapter 34 Farewell
With a click, the light in the room came on and Chen Chuan walked in. He closed the door and walked to the window. A bright moon hung high in the night sky.
He reached out to draw the curtains, returned to the bed, glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside table, closed his eyes, and the second me behind him instantly overlapped with him.
After a while, he opened his eyes and glanced at the alarm clock. In order to knock down Zhong Wu today, he had used the power of the Shocking Fist in every move, and a lot of overlapping time had been spent. However, now the time has increased by more than 270 seconds, and the upper limit of overlap has exceeded six minutes.
This is the biggest progress since the birth of the "second self".
Zhong Wu was probably the most dangerous opponent he had ever faced, and at that time, he had never had such a strong desire to knock someone down.
It was when his belief was strongest and he was determined to do something and succeeded that it triggered an unprecedented strong resonance in his second self.
He reached out and turned off the alarm clock.
Next, there will be a new beginning.
The next day, Chen Chuan woke up on time.
Because there were still two days before school started, he had to make some more preparations, and he definitely wouldn't have time after school started. He also had to contact some close friends, so he called Ding Jiao first.
As soon as the call was connected, a voice came from the other end: "Hello, is this Chen Chuan? Brother Chuan, you finally called me. I've been so frustrated these past few days. I told them I had a classmate from Wuhan University, and we were my deskmate, but those idiots didn't believe me and said I was bragging! What kind of bragging? Do I look like a braggart? Do you think I am?"
Chen Chuan held the microphone a little further away before saying, "And then?"
"What then?"
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Boasting?"
"You're just bragging, I'm telling you... Hey! Are you making fun of me again? Oh? By the way, what did you call me about?"
Chen Chuan said, "I passed Wu Yi's re-examination. I wanted to say hello to you so that I wouldn't keep saying that I had some news but didn't tell you."
"Passed the retest?" Ding Jiao's voice suddenly rose an octave. "Awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome... Damn, I want... Oh my god! Brother Chuan, you are my brother!"
The loud voice came out again and could be heard from several meters away. Chen Chuan had already calmly put away the microphone.
"Oh, Brother Chuan, you have to treat me, you have to treat me, do you hear me? How can you not treat me? I'm going to jump out of my window. Can you bear it?"
Chen Chuan thought about it and felt that it was quite serious. Although Ding Jiao lived on the first floor, there was a ditch outside his window. He said, "I was planning this. We don't need a lot of people. Just call a few people we know and gather some time to go to Wangxiangzhai to get together."
"Okay! I'll make the call right now! I'll talk to you later!"
Ding Jiao hung up the phone excitedly. Chen Chuan thought for a moment, then dialed another number and said, "Mi's firm? I'm looking for Gao Ming."
After waiting for a while, a voice came from inside: "Cousin, I have been following Wu Yi's re-examination these days. He called at this time, so he must have passed, right?"
Chen Chuan said: "Yes, just last night."
The voice said with a smile, "Congratulations, cousin. By the way, I won't be able to come back for another two months. The time is not yet certain. I will contact you then."
Chen Chuan knew that he had a lot of things to do, so he chatted with him for a few words and then hung up the phone.
At this moment, I heard a car bell ring outside, and then someone knocked on the door and asked, "Does Chen Chuan live here? Chen Chuan from Wuhan University? There's a package for you."
The noise was so loud that all the neighbors who were at home heard it.
Chen Chuan walked out and opened the door to the front yard. He saw a young man in a gray uniform standing there with a package on his back. Behind him was a bicycle with packages hanging on both sides. After seeing him, he handed him a list and a pen, "Chen Chuan, right? A package from the express delivery store has arrived. Please sign for it."
Chen Chuan took the form and signed it. The young man took it and returned to the carriage, holding a large package and handing it to him, saying enviously, "Brother, you got into Wuhan University. That's amazing. My brother is going to take the exam next year, but I wonder if he can get in. Now let's go." He climbed into the car, pressed the bell, stepped on the pedal a few times, and the car drove away.
After Chen Chuan left, he returned to the house and opened the package. Inside were two sets of retro-style training clothes, both with right-side openings, one set in cyan and the other in white, and also came with two headbands of matching colors.
In addition to the two sets of training uniforms, there are also two sets of formal student uniforms, including hats, shoes, gloves and socks, one set of casual clothes and one set of winter clothes. The style is similar to the one he is wearing, but the material is better, the color is more correct, and there is also the Wu Yi school emblem on the chest.
There was also an exquisite envelope with the name of Wuyi School printed on it. It felt hard to the touch. After tearing it open, I took out something similar to a name card.
He picked it up and took a look. It turned out to be a new student certificate. After passing the re-examination, he became an elite student trained by Wu Yi. The original student certificate was replaced by this one.
There was also a booklet and a key inside the envelope.
The booklet is a folded book, with some congratulatory words and some school rules and precautions of Wuyi at the beginning. When the entire booklet is unfolded, there is an ink painting map of Wuyi University on the back. Although it is a print, the picture is very delicate and attractive, and it must be the work of a master.
As for that key, it was the dormitory key assigned to him, which he could only use after school started.
After packing up his things, he went to the yard to practice boxing, and soon it was noon.
After lunch, he changed his clothes and went out, running towards Quan's House. However, he decided to stop by Weidong first to see how the boy was doing and whether he had passed the re-examination.
This time he didn't go up the long alley, because that wasn't the right way, so he went around and entered from the main gate of the residential building, found the building where Wei Dong was, followed the stairs upstairs, and there was a picture of a boxer with a clenched fist posted in front of the door. Judging from the style, it must have been made a long time ago.
He went up to the door and knocked, saying, "Is Brother Wei home?"
There were clattering footsteps inside, and then the door swung open. Wei Dong was standing behind it, a patch on his face. He waved his hand at him and said, "Hey, Brother Chen! I didn't see you yesterday. Someone said you were in another exam room, and that person almost got into a fight with me, but he didn't want to, so it didn't happen."
Chen Chuan said with a smile, "That was in the examination room. If he wanted to, would you really fight him?"
Wei Dong said proudly, "How could that be? I was just trying to scare him. I will definitely do what I promised you."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Judging from your appearance, you must have passed the retest?"
Weidong scratched his hair and said, "That guy was pretty strong. He knocked me down with just three punches and two kicks. But I refused to give in, so I got up and fought him a few more times. It must have been several times, three or four times? Then the teacher said enough was enough, that it was pointless to continue, and that we shouldn't waste time. He then told me I passed and could leave."
Chen Chuan extended his hand and said, "Congratulations, Brother Wei."
Weidong reached out and clapped his hand against him, saying, "Hey, congratulations to Brother Chen too. We can continue to compete in the future." He suddenly became more serious and said, "I'll find a way to beat you."
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Then you have to work hard."
After understanding the situation, he stayed with Weidong for a while and then left, continuing to head towards Quan's House. He arrived at the destination at around two o'clock.
Lu Ke was cleaning the venue at the moment. When he saw him come in, he stopped and said in surprise, "Brother Chen..." Then he looked at him again. He also knew that Chen Chuan had gone to take the re-examination of Wuyi University yesterday, but he didn't know what the result was.
Chen Chuan smiled at him and raised his clenched fist.
Lu Ke showed a delighted look, gave him a thumbs-up, and said sincerely, "Brother Chen, you're amazing!" He seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, Master is upstairs," and added, "He's waiting for news from you, too."
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Let's talk later." He walked up the stairs and reached the second floor. He saw Yu Gang standing on the balcony corridor, with his arms folded, looking into the distance.
He walked over, bowed to Yu Gang, and said, "Mr. Yu, I passed the Wu Yi retest and will be attending the academy in a few days. Thank you for your guidance during these days."
Yu Gang turned around, put his hand down, and said, "Since you've passed the retest, my training for you ends here."
Chen Chuan said: "No matter what, I have to thank Mr. Yu for his guidance."
Yu Gang said, "You have talent and will always be able to make a name for yourself. I have repaid Captain Nian's favor. If you ask me about fighting again in the future, the price will not be the same as it is now."
Chen Chuan laughed and said, "Very fair."
Yu Gang hummed, then added, "There's competition everywhere, and Wuhan University is no exception. Sometimes it's beyond your imagination, so you have to be careful."
Chen Chuan said seriously, "Thank you, Mr. Yu, for reminding me. I will try my best to adapt."
He stayed here for a while, then said goodbye to Yu Gang and left. Before leaving, Lu Ke handed him a plastic bag and said, "This is what my master asked me to give you."
Chen Chuan took a look and said in surprise, "Dark meat?"
Lu Ke nodded and said, "Yes, four pounds of black rat meat. I bought it with the extra money you gave me. Master told you to remember to eat it. It's just enough for you to eat until school starts."
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Thank Mr. Yu for me." He raised his hand again and said, "Let's go."
Lu Ke hummed.
Chen Chuan waved his hand and left. When he reached the exit of the alley, Lu Ke's voice came from behind: "Brother Chen, come often when you have time!"
Chen Chuan turned around and said with a smile, "Okay." After that, he waved to Lu Ke and Yu Gang who was looking at him upstairs, turned around and walked away.
Master and disciple Yu Gang and Lu Ke watched Chen Chuan walk out of the narrow alley, and they knew in their hearts that what was waiting for him would be a wider world outside.
