Chapter 107
Jiang Yunu returned to Enge's dormitory building, carrying a box full of snacks specially gifted by Su Xiuchun and lovingly prepared by Inspector Ye Li.
The western-style building was bustling with activity, and the noise was quite loud.
Because the notice of early termination of the league had been issued, the abrupt end of the competition was a foregone conclusion. Therefore, while Jiang Yunu was out to inquire about the news, the student players who had accepted the fact began to pack their luggage, count and organize their personal belongings, and were about to prepare to return to school.
Jiang Yunu walked in carrying things, and the senior students who were making a list and chatting at the door immediately saw her.
"Hey, Xiao Jiang is back!"
"Xiao Jiang, where did you go? Teacher Lu came to look for you."
Some people were sharp-eyed and noticed the box in Jiang Yunu's hand. They saw that it looked like a food takeout box, so they joked, "Are you hungry and going to the cafeteria for a snack? You're even eating and taking it away."
Jiang Yunu did not make a big deal about the fact that she had gone to find Su Xiuchun. She smiled at her classmates and teammates who were paying attention to her.
"Yes," she said, "I went out to eat and take away some food."
But they didn't go to the cafeteria, but to Coach Su's high-end lounge, and what was "eaten and taken away" was not just snacks.
Jiang Yunu remembered what her senior schoolmate said when she first entered the room. She asked, "Teacher Lu is looking for me?"
"Yes, about a quarter of an hour ago, the teacher came to look for you, but you were not there. Teacher Lu must have gone back to his room."
After thanking the senior for the information, Jiang Yunu packed his lunch box and walked straight towards the teachers' room without even putting it down.
She went to knock on Lu Xixi's door: "Teacher Lu?"
Lu Xixi responded from inside: "Jiang Yunu? The door is not locked, just come in."
Jiang Yunu pushed the door open with one hand and found that the teacher's room was also rather messy, no longer the neat and tidy one she had seen when she came to Lu Xixi for private lessons.
Lucy was also packing her personal belongings.
Things waiting to be put away were scattered all over the sofa, tables, chairs, and the end of the bed. Ms. Lu didn't avoid the students, but only reminded Jiang Yunu to be careful where she stepped: "There are several small devices on the right side of the carpet at the door. Be careful not to step on them."
Jiang Yunu responded with an "hmm," and like playing a very old-fashioned hopscotch game, he jumped lightly through the gaps between the objects of various shapes and walked along a rugged path leading to the teacher.
"Teacher." Jiang Yunu walked around to Lu Xixi and asked, "The seniors said you were looking for me?"
If you count carefully, Jiang Yunu has only seen Lu Xixi twice since the last round of the practical competition.
And each time takes no more than ten minutes on average.
Lu Xixi has been working vigorously these days. During the competition, she became a member of the investigation team of the "Special Metal Beast". In addition to her civilian duties, which required her to attend various meetings and analyze and track materials, she also had a military duty - the joint team went to conduct an on-site investigation of the "surface nest" of the illegal renovation company. This kind of mission inevitably requires a superpower user who is good at superpower combat to take the lead and go out on field work.
During the two times that Teacher Lu had met Jiang Yunuo briefly, Jiang Yunuo noticed that there were still some remnants of wind elemental power in her that had not completely dissipated.
"I'm finally back with the team, and of course I want to see my best students."
Lu Xixi spoke as she sorted her things, her tone unusually relaxed in recent times.
As soon as Jiang Yunu heard Lu Xixi say "they", he knew that the other party must have already seen Zhou Jinxue and the others who stayed in the dormitory.
"Teacher, you seem to be in a good mood." Jiang Yunu tried to figure out Lu Xixi's expression.
"Yes!" Lu Xixi confirmed cheerfully. "And it's your turn to lead the final meeting of the day, Teacher Lei. I can finally be free from all these boring meetings, big and small. I heard their meeting today is forty minutes late. I sent a message to ask, and Stanley mentioned that everyone had just arrived at the venue and it was only starting now."
Jiang Yunu: “?”
Although it seemed that there should be no connection, when Jiang Yunu heard Lu Xixi say that the meeting with Reis Daniel was delayed, his first reaction was to think of Coach Su who had said before that "the matter was not worth mentioning".
The "not worth mentioning" that Coach Su said... maybe... maybe... he was not referring to this meeting, right?
Lu Xixi put down the things in her hands at some point and turned around to look at Jiang Yunu.
She glanced at the take-out box still in the little girl's hand, and thought that children were easily hungry, so she ran to get her a meal and packed some back on the way.
Lu Xixi paid no attention to the food box. She admired Jiang Yunu for a moment, the same way she admired the thriving radishes in her own radish patch. Then she asked, "Xiao Jiang, as this little hero, do you want any reward?"
The league was terminated early, and the points were calculated based on the total score at the end of the last round of practice matches. With this ranking, Engel is undoubtedly the first.
And this first place was mainly due to the huge gap that Jiang Yunu pulled up within two days after entering the market.
After Lu Xixi took away the "mechanical elemental beast", Jiang Yunu obtained the artificial crystal cores of several conventional metal beasts in subsequent competitions, which continued to add points for Engel, and eventually allowed Engel to go from "widening the gap with a slight score advantage" to "maintaining a firm first place with a favorable score gap."
The Enge school team generally doesn't reward people based on their merits, but Jiang Yunu is a freshman, and a magical freshman who takes charge of the overall situation. It is reasonable and logical for Lu Xixi to think that she deserves a special reward.
——What's more, this little girl accidentally exposed a secret.
In addition to being a minor contributor to the Engel school team, she is also considered a contributor by the staff of three other schools in the league except one.
"Me?" Jiang Yunu looked puzzled. "Can I request a specific reward?"
Lu Xixi said affirmatively: "Yes, is there anything you want? As long as the request is not too extreme, the teacher can satisfy you."
Jiang Yunu was still curious and asked, "Does this apply to all the scoring players on the school team?"
The white-haired girl's eyes clearly said: [Doesn't our team judge people by their performance?]
When Lu Xixi saw Jiang Yunu's expression, she knew that this little classmate had never thought about "asking for credit and reward" in his heart.
"I'll make an exception for you," Lucy said. "Don't worry. The other members of the school team agree. I've already told them about this when you went out for a snack."
Jiang Yunu: "..."
When she came back and walked in, everyone treated her as usual. Why didn't any of the seniors tell her about this in advance?
Lu Xixi was afraid that the little girl still had concerns, so she said, "If anyone has any objections to giving you a special award, I think your senior sister Zhou would be happy to talk to that person privately."
Jiang Yunu found that she couldn't quite imagine Zhou Jinxue going to have a "private talk" with someone.
She felt that the scene of Zhou Jinxue taking the initiative to talk to someone was strange enough.
But she could indeed hear the special care from her teacher and senior students.
"As long as the request is not excessive, I can ask for any reward." Jiang Yunu thought for a while and asked carefully.
Lucy nodded: "Anything is fine."
Ms. Lu not only stopped collecting her things, but also crossed her arms and stared at Jiang Yunu with an expression of expectation. Because honestly, she was also looking forward to what kind of reward application this white-haired girl would make.
Jiang Yunu thought for a moment, and after a while, Lu Xixi saw her stretch out a finger cautiously.
Jiang Yunu said in a rare embarrassed tone, "Is it okay if I want to go a little overboard?"
"Oh?" Lucy raised her eyebrows. Although she suddenly felt that her principles were not incapable of flexibility, she still asked, "Can you tell me your request first?"
With a "pop".
Jiang Yunu clasped her hands together in front of the teacher and said sincerely, "Teacher, could you please submit an application to the school on my behalf to double my cafeteria meal allowance?"
Lucy: “…Ah?”
Jiang Yunu's face was filled with sincerity and love for food as he said, "Being able to double my meal allowance is the perfect reward for me!"
Lu Xixi confirmed that she had heard correctly, so she said: "..."
Alas, this little loser, he thought she wanted something, but it turns out she only cared about eating!
Ms. Lu was about to "flexibly waver" her own principles, but she found that the little girl's request was just that, as if she was fully armed but only got on a children's trampoline.
"...That's it?" Lucy asked, "Nothing else?"
Jiang Yunu widened her eyes slightly, making her look not only more sincere but also more innocent.
"How can you say 'that's all'?" Jiang Yunu defended the importance of food. She emphasized to her teacher, "This is the foundation that allows me, Enge, to continue to eat and drink well and thrive!"
Lu Xixi said, "...Okay, okay, okay, okay, this is your own choice, don't regret it later."
Time may let Jiang Luobo realize what a touching opportunity she missed to make a request.
After Res Daniel finished the inexplicably delayed meeting, he also returned to Enge's small villa. Lu Xixi told her colleagues about Jiang Yunu's strange application as a funny story.
After hearing this, Reiss Daniel's expression was a little subtle.
It would be better to say that since returning to the dormitory building, Teacher Lei has maintained a subtle and complicated expression since entering the door.
"She... seems to pay more attention to food." Teacher Lei first confirmed this, and told Lu Xixi about the topic that Jiang Yunuo had discussed with him last time, "What's wrong with the Seventh District?" The little girl also specifically mentioned last time that the Seventh District allowed her to eat well.
Jiang Luobo is probably a student who pays great attention to eating.
"Why do you have such an expression?" Lucy looked at Reiss Daniel's expression and felt that he was absent-minded, with a layer of doubt between his brows.
It seemed like something was bothering him, but it wasn't anything serious or urgent.
Lu Xixi pondered and asked, "What little problem occurred at the meeting?"
Reiss Daniel was still in a trance, his eyes were a little scatterbrained. Lucy waited patiently for a long time, and finally his eyes focused again.
Teacher Lei's gaze slowly focused, revealing a new expression of surprise and horror.
Lucy: "...What happened?"
Leis Daniel: "...Do you believe it? The Seventh District Chapter of the Linglu Psychic Association wants to come forward to guarantee Jiang Yunu the opportunity to take the skip-level exam."
