Thinking that the other person might become a big shot in the future, the teacher on duty adjusted his attitude.
"Jianguo, this is your student card. After you bind it to your personal computer, all the school's arrangements will appear directly on your computer. Then..." The teacher on duty glanced at the computer as he spoke, "Your dormitory is in Building 8, Room 302. It will also be shown on your student card. If you go there now, you should be able to catch the campus bus, which will save you a lot of trouble."
Lu Manman thanked the teacher and walked into the school, where he caught the bus.
Lu Manman had done her homework and knew that flying vehicles were prohibited on campus, but the campus was also huge, so campus buses were really necessary.
The bus was large, and about half of the passengers were seated. The originally noisy carriage fell silent the moment they saw Lu Manman.
Then they started whispering again.
"What's going on? How can there be such a short student?"
"Is it possible that he/she is not a student of our school?"
"Isn't this malnutrition? I suspect he's not even an adult yet."
...
Lu Manman listened silently to the personal attacks, feeling quite helpless. She was clearly wearing 10-centimeter height-increasing insoles.
Lu Manman silently pondered how to make her height appear even taller by focusing on her shoes.
He ignored the other voices, saying that she would leave after a semester anyway, and there was no need to cause unnecessary trouble; being isolated was actually better.
Following what I'd seen online, I clicked on dormitory building number 8 on the bus. Since I was already there, I figured I'd make the best of it and wait until she learned her mental powers.
Amidst the open discussions of the crowd, the bus stopped in front of dormitory building number 8.
Lu Manman got out of the car quickly, attracting a lot of attention. There was no way around it; even though she had disguised herself, her height and figure were still too conspicuous among a group of men who were over 185cm tall and had strong builds.
So if the minimum height requirement for military academies is 185 cm, why admit a short guy like him who, even when disguised, is less than 180 cm tall?
With a sigh, Lu Manman, under the watchful eyes of everyone, went straight to 302 and knocked on the door.
The door was quickly opened, revealing a muscular chest. Lu Manman hurriedly shifted his gaze upwards...
Bang!
Before Lu Manman could react, the door was closed.
Zhao Bo picked at his ear. "I haven't been getting enough rest lately, and I'm having auditory hallucinations."
He thought someone was knocking on the door.
The road ahead is long: ...
Since that's the case, then fine.
Lu Manman took out her student card and swiped it. The door opened, and she stared at the man inside, whose lower body was wrapped in a bath towel.
Zhao Bo was completely dumbfounded, then realized that he actually had a student ID card. His expression immediately became subtle. This underage person was his new roommate?!
"Hello! I'm your roommate."
Sure enough, Zhao Bo immediately greeted him warmly, "Oh, it's you! I'm so glad to finally meet you."
All the other roommates arrived early, except for one who was late. I thought he wasn't coming at all.
However, her figure is truly indescribable.
When Lu Manman first saw the university dormitory of Xingji, the space was quite large. There were four beds around the perimeter, each with a desk and a large cabinet next to it. At the far end were the bathroom and the balcony.
Now only the bed next to the bathroom is still empty.
Lu Manman walked over silently, took out the luggage she had prepared in advance from her spatial ring, and put it away.
Zhao Bo came closer and said, "Hi new roommate, my name is Zhao Bo, and you must be Zhao Jianguo. To be honest, your name is so different from who you are."
Judging from the name, I thought he would be a tall and strong big guy, like a tyrant, but in real life he looks like a minor.
Lu Manman nodded politely with a smile.
Zhao Bo found it strange and, like a chatterbox, kept talking incessantly around Lu Manman.
This long-lost enthusiasm made Lu Manman relax a little. Humans are indeed social animals. When you've been lonely for a long time, you're especially happy to meet a chatterbox.
Once we get back to Kaiping Star, we definitely need to arrange for the holographic capsule; we still need to have some interaction.
Zhao Bo then hooked his arm around Lu Manman's neck, saying, "From now on, we're best buddies. I'll protect you."
How will he manage in military school with such a small frame? But what can he do when he's such a warm and enthusiastic roommate? Thinking this, he hugged Lu Manman even tighter.
Lu Manman realized what was happening and pried his hand away. "Thank you, Zhao Bo, but I don't like physical contact with others..."
Zhao Bo was stunned for a moment, then realized what he meant, laughed, and said, "I understand."
Shorter men generally don't like being hugged like this; it hurts their self-esteem.
Seeing that the conversation was getting a bit awkward, Zhao Bo continued, "Jianguo, how much mental strength do you have? How much physical strength do you have?"
Lu Manman shook her head, "I don't know yet."
What?!
"No way, how did you get in?"
Speaking of this, Lu Manman looked resentful, "I don't know which kind person recommended me here,"
What a terrible thing to do.
As they were talking, the door opened again, and the two of them looked towards the doorway.
Upon seeing who it was, Lu Manman's pupils widened slightly; he was there too.
Ye Xingfan walked in expressionlessly, took something, and then went out again, completely ignoring Lu Manman the whole time.
Seeing that Lu Manman didn't speak, Zhao Bo quickly explained, "That's just how he is, don't mind him."
Lu Manman nodded. That would be good. It would be even better if the person who is most likely to discover her could continue like this.
Zhao Bo continued the previous topic, saying, "Being recommended here means you're very capable. Why don't you go out and have some friendly competition?"
Lu Manman shook her head. "I don't know anything. Maybe the person who recommended me made a mistake. Someone like me definitely wouldn't be able to survive military training."
"It's fate that we met." Zhao Bo patted his chest and said, "Now that you've become my roommate, I definitely won't let you be eliminated."
"You dare!" Lu Manman blurted out subconsciously, then quickly added after realizing what she had said, "The Imperial First Military Academy is a place to train outstanding officers. After they graduate, they will be responsible for the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers. How can they cheat? If unsuitable people are forced to stay, it will definitely cause considerable losses to the Empire. So you must not do that."
Zhao Bo was surprised that Brother Jianguo had such awareness. He really lived up to his name. Zhao Bo's impression of Lu Manman improved even more. "Okay, let's work hard together and do our best to leave the rest to fate."
After making her bed, Zhao Bo's constant chatter became unbearable for her. At first, she thought it was nice, but after a while, she found it annoying. How could someone be so talkative?
From the moment she came in until now, Zhao Bo's mouth has hardly stopped.
"Jianguo, where did you get your hair cut? It looks terrible! There are a few good barbershops around the school. Look at my handsome hairstyle, I just got it cut yesterday. Isn't it great? Now that you've packed your things, I'll take you there..."
"Need not."
Speaking of which... Lu Manman carefully examined Zhao Bo's hairstyle. His bright red hair looked familiar; she felt like she had seen it somewhere before.
