"Professor Gu Xinghe, you've finally arrived!"
At that moment, a middle-aged man with thinning hair walked out of the university gate in front of him.
His eyes lit up the moment he saw Gu Xinghe's figure.
While greeting Gu Xinghe, the man also gave Gu Xinghe a big hug.
Then, he grabbed Gu Xinghe's forearm with one hand, as if afraid that he would run away.
"Professor Gu Xinghe, I've been waiting for you for so long! You've finally arrived! Come on, let's talk as we walk!"
At this moment, while saying this, the man had already grabbed Gu Xinghe's arm and was trying to lead him into the school.
Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, whose face was filled with both eagerness and joy, Gu Xinghe had to admit—
This was the first time he had ever seen someone greet him with such exaggerated enthusiasm in a game instance.
"cough……"
Therefore, Gu Xinghe could only cough lightly to indicate that there were other people present.
After receiving a signal from Gu Xinghe, the man finally remembered the other three people he had neglected.
"The three new students have arrived at the school. They can come in with me."
At that moment, Gu Xinghe and his group of four followed the middle-aged man into St. George's University.
Upon entering the school, Gu Xinghe and the others could see groups of students walking together on campus.
And when they saw the man walking in front of Gu Xinghe and his group, they would take the initiative to greet him.
"Good morning, Principal!"
"Good morning, Principal!"
The continuous stream of greetings finally revealed the identity of the man in front of them to Gu Xinghe and his companions.
At this point, after being reminded by the students...
The middle-aged man seemed to have finally remembered that he hadn't introduced himself to Gu Xinghe and the others yet.
"Professor Gu Xinghe, and three new students, hello! I am Holmes, the current president of St. George's University."
My eagerness in front of you all earlier was truly impolite.
Although he was introducing himself and apologizing to the four people, Principal Holmes's words were mainly directed at Gu Xinghe.
After all, even the school's students have lost a certain number of students due to the rumors.
However, students are only considered to be among those affected by the rumors.
Even worse was the rumor that the math teacher position was "hit the bullseye" and no one wanted to take it.
"Perhaps Professor Gu Xinghe had heard some rumors about this position before he decided to come to our school to teach."
But before Gu Xinghe could respond, Principal Holmes quickly offered an explanation.
"But actually, it was just a rumor..."
Perhaps Holmes realized that his explanation was somewhat useless, so he quickly added something.
"And the salary we offer will definitely satisfy you!"
Please! Don't choose to leave just because you hear about a cursed position!
At this moment, Holmes explained to Gu Xinghe while taking out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Seeing this, Gu Xinghe also felt that although the other person was middle-aged, there was indeed a reason why his hair was so thin.
It seems that the current situation at the school has led to excessive mental exertion.
Moreover, although he had guessed it before, Gu Xinghe was now even more certain of why the main quest rewards were so generous.
However, he may be about to disappoint Holmes.
The main quest only requires him to serve here for a week; it clearly doesn't intend for him to challenge the survival record.
Even more so, they had planned out his escape route after he left.
To outsiders, he might just be another math professor who has mysteriously disappeared a week from now.
Holmes was clearly unaware of the inside story, and at this moment he undoubtedly placed high hopes on Gu Xinghe.
“I know, Principal Holmes, I also believe that the cursed mathematics professorship is just a rumor.”
Especially after Holmes heard Gu Xinghe's words of agreement.
Therefore, at this moment, he wanted to confirm Gu Xinghe's job position as soon as possible.
Holmes didn't even take Gu Xinghe to the principal's office or a special reception room.
He led Gu Xinghe and the other three to a classroom and then spoke to Gu Xinghe.
"Thank you very much for your trust, Professor Gu Xinghe."
Since you trust our school so much, I think we don't need to be too polite with each other.
Once your academic credentials and qualifications have been verified, you can begin your teaching and work immediately.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinghe seemed to understand why his identity was different from the other three players.
At that moment, he remembered the main quest reward he received after clearing the [Dawn Boarding School] dungeon—
It includes graduation certificates for all levels of education, from primary school to middle school, university, and even doctoral degrees.
He was still wondering if this could be considered a fake certificate from another world.
Unexpectedly, these "fake certificates" have come in handy now, even giving him the status of a professor.
Clearly, in this world, players who haven't cleared school-type dungeons are considered "illiterate" by the natives.
He alone received a degree from another world and was about to be forced to become a learned mathematics professor.
Fortunately, it was winter, and Gu Xinghe was wearing a black woolen coat and a white scarf woven by Red Spider around his neck.
So, under the cover of the thick coat, Gu Xinghe pretended to take out his doctoral degree certificate and qualification certificate from the lining of the coat. They had been thrown into the storage space to gather dust a long time ago, but now they were seeing the light of day again.
After not checking the certificate very carefully, Principal Holmes handed it back to Gu Xinghe.
It was as if they were afraid that even a second more of inspection would displease Gu Xinghe and cause him to regret leaving.
After all, Gu Xinghe's willingness to take up a teaching position can only be described as "brave" in the eyes of outsiders.
The moment he received his diploma, Gu Xinghe immediately understood why Holmes had been so eager.
Holmes had a good reason for stopping the four of them in front of the classroom.
According to the course schedule, Gu Xinghe's first class after taking office was obviously held in this classroom.
And class time is now.
Gu Xinghe didn't even have a chance to see the entire school's layout or visit the campus.
Five minutes after meeting the school principal, he was immediately taken to the classroom to begin his first math lesson.
I know you're in a hurry, but please don't rush.
A sentence that was flooding the live stream at that moment almost perfectly expressed Gu Xinghe's feelings.
