Chapter 146
Jiang Yunu gave the captain of the guards a truly innocent look: "What is that?"
The guard captain, who had always been serious, laughed and said, "It's one of the compulsory courses offered in the school after you enter the senior school."
After a pause, the captain of the guard added, "Your control over the release of your supernatural powers is very precise. I guess you may have learned the relevant techniques in advance."
Jiang Yunu had only received Lu Xixi's devilish training when he participated in the junior league, but at that time, her course was not called "Energy Precision Control", which sounded more professional.
Jiang Yunu's keen intuition told her that the captain of the guard in front of him still had some doubts about her and was testing her - even though she was clearly just a little girl who came to school.
Jiang Yunu blinked slightly and said, "I did have a teacher who gave me special training in this area, but I'm not sure if it meets the standards of 'energy precision control'."
The captain of the guard said no more. The queue waiting to pass through the gate had been rearranged in an orderly manner. The line was not short at all, and there were still many people waiting to enter the second large area.
He opened the gate for Jiang Yunu and wished Jiang Yunu a happy study and life in the second district.
The figure of the white-haired girl disappeared behind the gate and turned into the connecting rail car leading to Houde City. Only then did the two subordinate guards move to the side of the captain.
"Captain," the male subordinate said, "you're not suspecting that this girl is connected to the suspect and the contraband?"
The captain of the guard said, "No, her immigration record is clean, and the time of her departure is enough to prove that she has nothing to do with this case."
Subordinate: "Then why...?"
"Think about the source of the suspects and smuggled goods," the guard captain said. "Three recent similar cases all point directly to the border between the Seventh and Eighth Districts."
When the word "smuggled goods" was mentioned, the guard captain's expression returned to seriousness. This word made several staff members around him look secretive for a moment.
"A child from the seventh district, yet he seems to have signs of advanced training, it's hard not to ask more questions." The captain of the guard frowned slightly to form the character "川".
To be fair, perhaps he did not think that Jiang Yunu himself was suspicious, but the extraordinary skills displayed by Jiang Yunu were somewhat suspicious.
The female guard then supported the little girl and said, "It's also possible that she's the child of a large family in District 7. Her family treats her as the 'hope of the whole family,' so they let her take so many advanced courses."
The male subordinate suddenly had an idea and said, "Wait, have we forgotten an important question - what did this little girl do with her supernatural powers at the arrest scene in the first place?"
The energy fluctuation detected by the machine equipment was so slight that if one did not specifically check the data panel, one would almost ignore this fluctuation. It did not trigger any mechanical alarm.
How harmless was this slight trace of supernatural power? It was like the silk thread spun by a spider in a corner, like the mouth of a kitten or puppy before its baby teeth began to grow. Being touched by such supernatural power output would cause virtually no harm. It was completely below the minimum standard for supernatural power control in public areas, so it was deemed "safe" and could not activate any defense mechanisms.
So, what did the little girl do with it?
Jiang Yunu was not aware of the questions she had left for the staff at the transfer station, nor was she aware that the female guard had given her the speculative title of "the well-trained heir to a large family."
Jiang Yunu took the rail car and entered Houde City from the transfer station.
After about a quarter of an hour's high-speed drive, she finally entered the urban airspace of Houde City.
——This is a city many times larger than her familiar hometown, Chat City.
When Jiang Yunu first participated in the junior league with the Engel school team, she visited Monstan, the connecting city of Songnan College. At that time, she felt that Monstan was already a very luxurious and prosperous city.
It was not until she entered the airspace of Houde City that she suddenly realized that the "prosperity" of the back area and the "prosperity" of the front area were no longer on the same level.
Houde City is like a huge garden. At first glance, you can't see those tall and dense buildings.
The first thing you see is its greenery.
Green plants, flowers, lushness and colorfulness intertwine.
In cities in the back star district, greenery and flowers are often used as embellishments between high-rise buildings. However, in a city like Houde City, which is located in the second largest district, everything is reversed - houses and buildings are embellishments in the large gardens.
Jiang Yunu sat on the rail car and looked out carefully. Her seat was by the window, giving her a more convenient view of the street scene. She looked at the low-rise buildings in the garden below and couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Are there no tall buildings in Houde City?"
There were other passengers on the rail car besides her.
Although Jiang Yunu's voice was not loud, the rail car was very quiet, so another passenger could hear her words clearly and turned to look at her.
Seeing that she was visibly young, the stranger passengers were also friendly.
"Is this your first time in Houde City?" the other party asked.
Jiang Yunu nodded generously: "Yes."
"There are high-rise buildings in Houde City, but they're concentrated in planned areas," the stranger said enthusiastically. "Outside of the designated planned areas, there really aren't any high-rise buildings. Building high-rise buildings outside of planned areas is also illegal."
Jiang Yunu asked curiously, "Is it against the rules?"
"Yes," the stranger said with a smile. "No one likes being constantly watched, especially in residential and entertainment areas. If there's a tall building nearby, someone standing on it with a high-powered camera could see what you're doing below. How can privacy be guaranteed? How can people relax in residential and entertainment areas?"
The front star regions have the least shortage of land and money.
"Limiting the construction of high-rise buildings, creating a comfortable and beautiful living and entertainment environment as much as possible, allowing everyone to relax in their own gardens and terraces without having to worry about being overlooked from above - this is the architectural feature of Houde City."
Jiang Yunu got off the rail car with awe for the vast territory and wealth of Houde City.
According to that enthusiastic passenger, the architectural features of Houde City can also be seen as a microcosm of the first and second districts. If she had the chance to go to the first district, which was numbered earlier, she would see a scene with more land and fewer buildings, but every inch of land and grass is exquisite.
Jiang Yunu found it a little hard to imagine that scene. She only felt a series of tinkling sounds rushing through her mind.
"What's that noise?" The strange passenger was curious about Jiang Yunu's statement.
She told him solemnly: "It's the sound of money flowing away."
Jiang Yunu spoke seriously, but the stranger passenger who said goodbye to her laughed heartily.
The platform where Jiang Yunu got off was the direct link platform between Houde City and Golden Uriel College, where one could transfer to a special bus to the college.
The so-called "Link City" essentially means deeply binding an academy to a well-developed city with convenient transportation. The academy will bring many benefits to the city, and the city will in turn provide resources to the academy. If necessary, the supernatural combat power originally used to protect the academy will also protect the entire city.
In the Seventh District, it was rare to find schools with linked cities. Only the financially strong Songnan College was tied to the city of Monstan.
But in the front star areas, especially the upper three areas, almost every school has its own linked city.
Although Golden Uriel College's internal ranking in the "top three districts" is shaky and has been questioned as having a potential risk of decline, judging from the Houde City to which it is linked, it was once prosperous and has shown no obvious signs of "slipping" so far.
Jiang Yunu soon waited for the special car to go to the college.
She had come alone from home to register as a freshman. Aunt Daisy and Joyson had originally wanted to accompany her, but unfortunately, Aunt Daisy suddenly had extra work at the end of the summer, and Joyson was notified to report to Engel in advance - perhaps in this new school year, the red-haired boy would also have the opportunity to join the Engel team through the school competition and become a reserve student.
Jiang Yunu certainly firmly supports her family members to put themselves first. Besides, she doesn't think she can't go to school and complete the registration by herself.
Since they are already students in the upper grades, the college naturally no longer adopts the "child-introduction-style" admission method like the primary schools do.
From the seventh district to the second district, and then finding the correct way to enter the school after entering the new city, all these processes depended on Jiang Yunu to independently search for information, make strategies, and then execute them smoothly.
"Are you Jiang Yunu?"
Jiang Yunu successfully reached the gate of Golden Uriel Academy on her own. She had just passed through the energy barrier set up at the gate and felt the detection energy like a tangible but intangible water film. It flowed through her body like water, detecting her identity data and then letting her pass.
Suddenly, a greeting like this came to my ears.
In a school where everything from the buildings to the teachers and classmates are unfamiliar, who would call her name?
She looked up questioningly and saw a lady with green hair.
The other person's hair was really green, like the lush green plants after being watered by rain in midsummer.
And this lady also has a pair of light golden eyes, which makes her look more like she has some kind of inhuman spirituality.
"Guess who I am?" the green-haired lady said playfully.
Talk like singing.
Jiang Yunu might not be familiar with the other person's facial features, but she had good ears and had recognized the other person's voice in an instant. She also felt that the other person's tone had already revealed the answer.
"Teacher 'Little Bird'?" Jiang Yunu said.
The green-haired "Bird" teacher said, "Perfect! You really are my favorite new student this year!"
Jiang Yunu actually didn't know how she had won the favor of this teacher. The white-haired girl showed a trace of doubt on her face, as if she was afraid that the pie in the sky might contain a weight.
Ms. "Little Bird" was very enthusiastic and wanted to take Jiang Yunu to register and give her the treatment she deserved as her "favorite new student."
Jiang Yunu was caught by the "bird" teacher and brought into the campus without knowing what was going on. He felt like an animal cub that was snatched away by a bird of prey disguised as a bird.
After thinking about it, the white-haired girl decided to ask the most important question first.
"Teacher," Jiang Yunu said, "Can I ask your full name?"
She doesn't even know the real name of Teacher "Little Bird", but she has been calling him "Teacher Little Bird" for most of the summer vacation!
