Chapter 81 Haunted High School (15)
Wei Wan lowered his head and ate.
He ate with the elegance of a young master, but Su Yue could clearly see the expression on his face as he tried hard to hold back a smile.
Su Yue said to Cang Zhi expressionlessly: "Look at your head."
Cang Zhi: “…”
Although Cangzhi's expression didn't change, Su Yue always felt that he saw a hint of disappointment in his face.
Su Yue: "..."
He suddenly understood a little bit what the "difference" he had felt before was.
In the past, Cang Zhi was like a big dog lying down and letting anyone pet him. Now, not only does he lie down and let anyone pet him, he also wags his tail and pounces on you.
I always feel like there is a new core under the shell.
This made Su Yue a little uncomfortable.
But...it's not annoying either.
.
To help Wei Wan regain his memory, we need a starting point.
"I don't know where to look," Wei Wan said. "I get a headache when I go to a lot of places. I think they should be points related to my memories, but even in those places, my mind is blank. I want to rely on my own strength to recall things I have forgotten, but it feels like it is impossible."
"So you can't just remember it on your own," Su Yue said, "you need external help."
"What do you mean...?" Wei Wan looked at Su Yue in confusion.
Su Yue pointed at Wei Wan's schoolbag.
Wei Wan is a young master, which seems to be the only thing they know about him, but this knowledge is not enough to find his memory. Although Su Yue also considered the needle-in-a-haystack method of "thoroughly exploring the building donated by Wei Wan's family from top to bottom", he knew that this was not scientific after thinking about it carefully.
In fact, I know more about Wei Wan than this.
Wei Wan was stunned for a moment and put down his schoolbag. His schoolbag was a very plain black model. Of course, the premise of "plain and simple" was to ignore the metal buckle on the schoolbag that represented luxury goods.
In addition, there is a small badge pinned on the schoolbag, which is the "Goldfinch Badge" of Jinling University.
Because Jinling University is a very famous institution of higher learning, many students here are proud of the school - or rather, of pretending to be cool, so many students will wear T-shirts with the school logo, carry backpacks with the school logo, or wear school-style badges, but Wei Wan's goldfinch badge is different.
The badge is surrounded by a narrow, red and black vertical stripe border, with a red-eyed goldfinch and a ruby goldfinch sculpture in the center. The goldfinch's eyes are convex, and a closer look reveals that they are inlaid with real small rubies. This is the authentic "Goldfinch Badge" of Jinling University.
The badge itself may not be worth that much, but it is an award given to students at Jinling University who have made the greatest contributions in science, literature, art, social contribution and other fields each year, and it represents absolute honor.
"What's wrong with this?" Wei Wan asked in confusion, "Isn't this just an ordinary Jinling badge?"
Then, before Su Yue could say anything, he realized it first: "No, this is... the Goldfinch Badge?"
Su Yue and Cang Zhi nodded in unison.
They originally thought that Wei Wan would explain the origin of his badge, but unexpectedly, Wei Wan was stunned for a moment, scratching his head in confusion: "How strange, why do I have this thing? Is it mine?"
Su Yue: "..."
Cang Zhi: “…”
This memory was erased completely.
.
"Why do I have the Goldfinch Badge?" Wei Wan muttered to himself while holding the badge.
After realizing that he was holding the goldfinch badge that symbolized the honor of Jinling University, he tried hard to think about the origin of his badge, but he couldn't remember it no matter how hard he tried. He even showed a painful expression when he tried to think a little harder.
"Okay, okay." Su Yue quickly stopped Wei Wan from thinking any further. He actually had an idea in his mind, but he was not a human being after all. Although he had actually traveled around the human world, he still didn't know much about humans, so he couldn't remember the word for a while.
"Those of you who have obtained this goldfinch badge have brought honor to the school, right?" Su Yue asked.
Wei Wan nodded.
"So the winners of this badge should all be recorded in one place, right?" Su Yue said.
"Is it recorded in one place?" Wei Wan asked with a frown, "School History Museum?"
"No." Su Yue said.
"library?"
"No, it sounds a little cooler."
"Somewhere even more impressive..." Wei Wan thought for a moment and asked, "Are you talking about the Hall of Fame?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Su Yue nodded immediately, "It's the Hall of Honor."
"That makes sense. If we go to the Hall of Honor, we'll definitely find information about the Goldfinch Badge." Wei Wan clapped his hands in delight, then turned curious, "Is the term 'Hall of Honor' difficult? What took you so long to figure it out?"
Su Yue: "..."
How is he going to explain this?
Fortunately, Wei Wan is an NPC, not a player, otherwise because of this problem, Su Yue would have to be alerted by that extremely sensitive earring for "exposing his identity as a god".
Su Yue laughed it off Wei Wan's question, saying something like "I didn't have these things in my previous school, so I'm not familiar with the names."
"Really?" Wei Wan asked doubtfully, "A normal high school should have an honor room, right? At the very least, a wall of honor?"
"Of course not." Su Yuezhang said, "That's because you've been attending aristocratic schools since you were young. Ordinary schools don't have things like honor rooms."
Wei Wan had indeed been attending an expensive private school since he was a child, and he had no idea what a normal school was like, so when Su Yue said that other schools didn't have honor rooms, he believed it.
Su Yue looked at Wei Wan's slightly guilty face, and even felt a strange sense of guilt in his heart that he was deceiving an innocent boy.
He cleared his throat and said, "Of course it's true. Anyway, take us to the Hall of Honor tonight. We might find something."
Wei Wan said yes obediently.
——
Jinling University has a total of five building complexes, two of which are dormitory buildings, one for men and one for women, two are teaching buildings, one for normal classes and the other for high-end laboratories, and another is a comprehensive building, which houses comprehensive facilities such as teachers' offices, archives, and honor rooms.
When Wei Wan and his friends arrived at the comprehensive building, the sun was setting and there was no student to be seen on the road. Everyone hurried back to the dormitory, as if nothing would happen if they stayed there.
There was a security guard sitting in the security booth outside the teaching building. He had the door of the security booth open and was smoking at the door.
Normally, smoking is not allowed on campus, but when people are panicking, no one cares. He glanced at Su Yue and the other three and waved his hand impatiently: "Hurry back! This is the teachers' building, and students are not allowed in without a permit!"
Su Yue took a step forward and was about to say something to persuade the old man, but the old man glanced and saw Wei Wan standing next to him.
Although he was just standing there quietly, his face on the Jinling campus exuded the aura of wealth that read "our family donated a building."
The old man stood up and said, "Wei, Young Master Wei Wan! Please come in quickly and take a look around!"
Su Yue: "..."
Wei Wan: “…”
.
With the help of Wei Wan's rich buff, Su Yue and his group successfully entered the teachers' building.
The Honor Room is on the top floor of the teachers' building, at the end of the corridor.
For a top university with a century-old history, such a small honor room seems a bit inadequate. In fact, Jinling University also has a school history museum, which looks much more magnificent. It displays trophies won by the school, photos of outstanding alumni over the years, awards they have won, etc. The honor room in the teachers' building is more like an archive.
Su Yue knew clearly that since the head teacher was so terrified of the tiger and since Wei Wan had even lost relevant memories, if this goldfinch badge was really related to the game plot, it must be something that "cannot be seen in the light".
It cannot be put on public display in the school history museum, so it will only be displayed in this small honor room.
This classroom doesn't even have windows, probably because they are afraid that wind, rain and sunlight will damage the books stored inside. The room is not very big, but it is full of things. At a glance, all you can see are books and booklets.
These books cover a wide range of years and are all very thick thread-bound volumes. All relevant documents are organized into volumes, bound on the side, with the year and volume number written on them, and all the attachments added to ensure that there is no omission in the information.
Since it is related to Wei Wan, it must be content from recent years.
Wei Wan is a senior this year, and three people went to look for it separately. The files in the archives were neatly arranged and arranged in order by year. They quickly found the contents of the last four years, which was just enough for each person to find two sets of large thread-bound volumes, so they quickly browsed through them.
The Goldfinch Badge is the highest-level award at Jinling University. There are very few winners, but because the school has a large student base, there are about a hundred winners in various projects each year.
Moreover, the contents of the Goldfinch Badge and other awards are bound together, and the thread-bound book has no page numbers. The catalog only records the project names, and the awards and the names of the winning students have to be found in the main text, so it is not so easy to find them, which means you have to go through all the contents from beginning to end.
There were six thick books with several thousand pages in total. Su Yue, Cang Zhi and Wei Wan sat on the floor under the bookshelf, each in a corner, searching carefully.
Time ticked by on the quartz clock on the wall above his head, from six o'clock until after nine o'clock in the evening. He flipped through all six thread-bound books from beginning to end, even reading them a second time, but there was no sign of Wei Wan.
In order to prevent Wei Wan's traces from being erased from the booklet, Su Yue and Cang Zhi would ask Wei Wan himself to confirm every award with the Goldfinch Badge, but even so, he did not find any familiar traces.
"Could it be that I never won the Goldfinch Badge?" Wei Wan finally put the booklet aside, feeling lost and dejected. "I have absolutely no memory of ever winning the Goldfinch Badge, and there's no record of me winning the award here. Maybe someone just gave it to me, so you can't find any trace of it."
He leaned back against the bookshelf and sighed, "Maybe this path is not the right one at all. Maybe I don't have any secrets... Don't waste your time on me."
"No." Su Yue said.
If Wei Wan really didn't have any secrets, the dean wouldn't have suddenly changed his attitude and kicked them all out. This must prove something, but the problem is that the Goldfinch Badge route didn't work.
This is a game world. No matter how difficult the game is, there are clues because it requires people to complete it.
Now that Su Yue is stuck, it only means one thing: there must be something he hasn't considered.
