Chapter 7 Chapter 7 This update ends with the death of the cannon fodder...
This update was to the night when the cannon fodder died, which was two days slower than the time in the comic world.
During these two days, Ren Xiaoyue saw Lu Ze peeking at the door of her office again, wanting to bring her lunch. On the way home, she met Berend, who found out that she had sprained her ankle and asked the driver to take her home.
What a familiar plot! Who knows how much space this copy-and-paste plot will occupy in the next update. Even if we make a bold guess, perhaps her injury will trigger a new conflict between the male protagonist and the second male lead's younger brother.
This way you will appear on camera more often. Ren Xiaoyue thought.
Where Ren Xiaoyue couldn't see, things developed just as she had expected.
Her injury sparks another conflict between Berend and Bertram. Berend bluntly scolded Bertram for being as useless as before, and mocked Lu Ze standing beside him, which was indeed useless, as useless people can only make friends with useless people.
This conflict led to Luze and Berend making the bet about the final exam in advance.
When Ren Xiaoyue read this from the system, she knew that her chance to correct her plan had come.
I wonder if she missed the confession between the male lead and the second male lead?
The so-called confession game is that after Lu Ze made the bet, Bertram thought that his friend was helping him and he couldn't refuse the other party's kindness. At the same time, he thought that this was the price he should pay for abandoning his brother at that time, and he was in a dilemma.
Lu Ze saw his dilemma and asked Bertram what was going on in the grove. After arguing and debating, Lu Ze and Bertram made a bet. If Luzer could pass Bertram's test, Bertram would tell Luzer about his dispute with Berend.
The subsequent plot is naturally that Lu Ze, after a series of efforts, passed the tests on Bertram and Berend at the same time, learned about their past, and resolved their knots.
By the way, because Bertram and his brother are fraternal twins and don’t look alike, and they never advertise their brotherhood, Luzer and Asther never realized they were brothers, as one of them called the other a coward and the other called the other by his name.
In addition, due to the author's intentional concealment, although readers have speculations, they have not been able to confirm them.
Since Lu Ze has made a bet with Bertram, now all Ren Xiaoyue has to do is...
-
The Gideon Academy is located in the southern part of Odennari, in a city called Tesulaila. It is spring-like all year round here, and the temperature in winter is around 6~8℃. For students on campus, it is not at all unusual to sit under a quiet and deserted tree and read a book at the end of February, when winter is almost over.
Ren Xiaoyue sat on the lawn, leaning against a big tree, flipping through the book "This Damn Superpower" borrowed from the library.
The sound of grass being trampled came from not far away. Ren Xiaoyue's eyes rolled and her breathing slowed down.
"There's something wrong with you since the day we made the bet. What's wrong, Bert?"
"…Nothing, I'm a little tired from studying lately."
"Do you think I'm a fool? No one can be fooled by such a reason!"
“…”
"I know you like to keep things to yourself, but aren't we friends? Friends should help each other!"
"That's my private matter."
"But Berend obviously wants to teach me a lesson, and this is not just your personal matter."
"He's not a bad guy..."
"Look, you're here again!"
It's about to get into a quarrel. Ren Xiaoyue tilted her head and pressed herself against the tree. Like a shrewd predator, she waited patiently for the two people's voices to become louder and louder. When she heard Bertram's footsteps leaving, Ren Xiaoyue felt that it was about time.
"Teacher Xiaoyue?!" A female voice came from in front of her.
Yes, the last actor arrived just in time. It was worth it that she paid special attention to the other person's walking route.
Ren Xiaoyue turned her head and coughed twice while covering her mouth. She pretended to be a little embarrassed, smiled at the person who made the voice, Aster, and raised the book in her hand: "I was here first..."
Asthe: “…”
After a while of chaos, the three of them sat behind a big tree. Lu Ze sat on Xiaoyue's right hand side and scratched his head: "Did Teacher Xiaoyue hear everything? I thought no one would come here."
"You guy..." Aste sat on Xiaoyue's left side, covering her face with a headache, not wanting to look at Lu Ze.
"It's because there are not many people here that I come here to read." Ren Xiaoyue caressed the cover of the hardcover book lovingly.
"Actually, I'm also very interested in the relationship between Berend and Bertram," Ren Xiaoyue put the book on her knees, "I asked Berend about this, but he was also reluctant to answer this question."
This is not a lie.
The fundamental reason for the conflict between the second male lead and his brother is that they are not honest. Ren Xiaoyue will not make the same mistake. Ren Xiaoyue had already asked Berend what was going on between him and Bertram, but of course she didn't get an answer.
The atmosphere was not very cheerful at the end, and Berend just told her not to worry about unimportant things. In fact, it didn’t matter if Berend answered. He just changed his words in front of Lu Ze.
"Besides, I think they might be brothers," said Ren Xiaoyue.
"well--?!"
Two exclamations sounded at the same time, and Ren Xiaoyue continued with satisfaction: "Classmate Berend once asked his driver to take me home. In his car, I saw supplies for two people."
"I also saw Bertram's watch in the car. Although it's possible that they are just the same model, but since they have the same hair and eye color, I think they might be brothers."
These were lies. There were supplies for two people, but there were no watches at all.
"But Berend is a noble, right?" Lu Ze was completely distracted by her and hesitated, "Bert doesn't have that feeling at all."
"So it's just a guess, with a little bit of intuition." Ren Xiaoyue did not deny Lu Ze's words.
Asthe, on the other hand, asked perceptively, "What does the teacher mean by telling us this...?"
Ren Xiaoyue smiled, clasped her hands together, and sincerely asked the two people in front of her: "Because I also want to join your bet, please!"
“Ahhhhhh——?!” the duet sounded again.
As the two men kept refusing and making excuses, Ren Xiaoyue appealed to their emotions and used the offer of tutoring Lu Ze in his homework as an inducement, and successfully got him into the male protagonist's gambling game. Having participated in an important plot, Ren Xiaoyue was in a good mood and gave each of her colleagues a box of homemade macarons the next day.
The first tutoring session for Lu Ze was three days later. During the tutoring session, Ren Xiaoyue deeply felt the truth that if you don’t know something, you just can’t do it.
Teaching is so difficult. It turned out to be the right decision to become a health teacher in the beginning.
In addition to the painful counseling process and a large number of emoticons, Ren Xiaoyue's residence also appeared in the comics. The detached villa and scheduled cleaning service made readers guess what Ren Xiaoyue's background was.
Looking at the various comments speculating that she was the child of an official or a rich man, Ren Xiaoyue couldn't help but curl her lips.
This time, the readers completely guessed wrong.
The origin of this villa started when she first arrived in the city where the Academy for Superpowers was located, and it was also related to her being squeezed into the Academy for Superpowers.
It was just part-time work earned by using the information in the comic outline.
Before arriving in the city by train, Ren Xiaoyue roughly calculated the detailed timeline and found that there was a plot that could be used.
This plot is just a background story in the comics, and the story comes from the protagonist's biggest financial backer.
This financial sponsor happened to stand at the forefront of the times and became a pig blown up by the wind. As a newly rich man, he lacked background and had not had time to build up power or make friends with the nobles, so he was targeted by the organization as a fat sheep.
The organization kidnapped his daughter in hopes of making a quick buck.
After receiving the threat, the financier did not just sit there and do nothing. He prepared the ransom openly but secretly contacted the police immediately.
Sadly, however, the police only found the body of his daughter.
According to the autopsy results, his daughter's underlying illness was triggered by shock and turbulence the day after she was kidnapped. In the end, due to lack of timely treatment, his daughter died in pain. Even if he paid the ransom obediently, all he would get was his daughter's body.
From then on, this newly rich man firmly embarked on the path of overthrowing the organization and secretly cultivating people with special abilities. After meeting the male protagonist, he provided him with a large amount of funds.
When she found out that the time of this past event coincided with the present, and she hadn't heard any gossip about the kidnapping case in this city, Ren Xiaoyue guessed that maybe she could save a life and get a little reward at the same time.
The goddess of luck did not abandon Ren Xiaoyue. She followed the location provided by the system and happened to witness the kidnapper preparing to torture the hostages.
The next thing was very simple. She killed three people in and out, familiarized herself with the fighting power of this body, and saved the rich man's daughter. To thank her for saving her life, they arranged a job and accommodation for her.
Ren Xiaoyue lived in a big house that she had never lived in before she traveled through time, and she truly felt that good people do get rewarded.
This high-quality villa not only made her live comfortably, but also amazed Luze and Aster who had just visited her home. But after tutoring for a period of time, no one paid attention to the issue of the villa anymore.
How good Lu Ze is at using intuition to answer multiple-choice questions, how bad he is at using intuition to answer non-multiple-choice questions. Ren Xiaoyue was overwhelmed by the tutoring, and Lu Ze was also overwhelmed by the studies. After contributing wave after wave of emoticons and feeling like she was about to become a funny character, Ren Xiaoyue finally faced the protagonists' final exams.
If Lu Ze wouldn't accept it, she would have wanted to tell them the answer. Ren Xiaoyue sat in the office, holding a pen, and sighed.
She gave up her vacation and took the job of statistics. If there is any problem with her grades, she can still save it.
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaoyue raised her head from the endless test papers and glanced at the paper in the hand of the person opposite her.
The pile of papers was at least half more than the ones she had counted. Opposite her sat a man with medium-long hair and stubble on his chin, moving as quickly as a character from a comic book—even though they seemed to be comic book characters.
Zhe, who was sitting opposite her, a man who would rather slack off than work hard, was different from her and did not volunteer to be counted. He skipped his job of marking papers and had to come and tally the scores.
"The papers on the right are those that have been counted, right? Teacher Zhe is really quick." Ren Xiaoyue spoke naturally.
"You are indeed too slow." Zhe said without raising his head.
Ren Xiaoyue smiled bitterly: "Teacher Zhe, please stop teasing me."
"Well... I'm just telling the truth. I suggest you stop chatting with me, otherwise you'll be slower." Zhe didn't stop his hands, and continued to do the statistics at a very fast speed while talking, as if he couldn't wait to finish and leave.
"Teacher Zhe, I'm just chatting," Ren Xiaoyue sighed, "For the sake of dessert, can you bring me a meal later? I want to continue with the statistics here."
"Please, Teacher Zhe, if you want to eat any dessert, just tell me." Ren Xiaoyue added before being rejected.
Zhe muttered softly, but did not refuse Ren Xiaoyue's request.
Ren Xiaoyue knew when to stop, handed the meal card to Zhe and stopped talking, and put her attention back on her work. When all the results were counted, Ren Xiaoyue checked the rankings from top to bottom and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Ze won. The first climax of the plot is coming.
Ren Xiaoyue put down the ranking list and stretched.
