Chapter 165
This is an extremely rare negative impression of Jiang Yunu.
Duma College is the first high school she has known since coming to this world.
Pei Ya told her that the statement that the Duma Academy player "intentionally injured others" was not accurate enough, because in the subsequent official announcement, it was stamped and concluded as "a momentary mistake."
"To be honest, I think the press release was written in a somewhat unconscionable way." Pei Ya expressed her true thoughts without any hesitation.
Perhaps when facing others, she would keep this sentence deep in her heart and not mention it a word.
But the person opposite her was Jiang Yunu, and she instinctively felt that the white-haired girl should have similar views as her.
Jiang Yunu had never even seen the news from the second largest district in the past. As for the incidents of intentional injury in the senior league, he had only heard the gossip that had been subcontracted through layers of channels and shared by Engel's seniors.
She herself had not searched for the corresponding reports, so when Pei Ya clearly expressed her dissatisfaction, she tilted her head slightly to show that she was all ears.
She asked, “How was the report written?”
Paya summed it up in a few simple words: "In short, it's 'youthful and energetic, too strong, lost control, misjudged the opponent, and made a mistake.'"
Jiang Yunu thought of this negative incident and also recalled the brief discussion he had with his friends at that time.
The official report was not much different from the rumor that the company had "spread far and wide" to the seventh district.
It was really a case of malicious injury during the game being beautified and packaged as a player who was too strong and accidentally made a mistake, injuring a weaker opponent.
"How is the injured student?" Jiang Yunu asked about the details of the injured person.
This is the part that was not included in the gossip that reached the Seventh District.
Pei Ya looked at Jiang Yunu with surprise and said, "I thought you would ask what happened to that student of Duma who hurt people."
"There's already enough attention being paid to people like these self-proclaimed 'chosen ones.'" Jiang Yunu took a sip of the juice in front of her. She held a small piece of ice in her mouth, pressing it under the tip of her tongue, and spoke with a hint of coldness. "The truly injured seem to be ignored in official reports and public discussions. Only the 'chosen ones' are talked about with relish, whether they do good or bad things. Someone has to care about the ordinary people who are forced to become their foils."
Pei Ya suddenly smiled.
The smile was very shallow and fleeting on that always stern face.
But it was indeed a smile. She smiled because she felt that her judgment of Jiang Yunu was correct.
"The injured student is from a school in District 3," Peiya said. "Their school's ranking in District 3 is already a bit precarious. Their overall development isn't as strong as another prestigious school in District 3, Mitchell Academy. I heard that student was the captain of their school team and their trump card for securing league berths year after year."
As the "Challenge Cup" competition is closely related to the college league, and whether a high school in the top three districts can get a league ticket is closely linked to the individual performance of the school's students, sometimes there is a chance that "one person can lead the whole school."
"After all, as long as one student makes it into the top ten high school students in the district, the school can participate in the competition."
In the end, no one knew what was in the mind of the "proud" contestant from Duma College, who wanted to compromise the "trump card" of the third largest district school.
Pei Ya has an extensive network of university intelligence. She said that the injured student had been recuperating for the entire summer vacation. His family hired the best water therapist they could to help him sort out the disorder in his energy circuits and recuperate his body that was also injured when his energy core was damaged.
Jiang Yunu praised Pei Ya: "You know so much."
Pei Ya shook her head. "Actually, when their family was looking for a therapist, they indirectly asked my mother for help. I happened to hear some of the information."
Jiang Yunu was about to ask why she was visiting the other person's home, but the question was suddenly stopped on her lips. In just a second, she realized that the girl in front of her also had a damaged energy core, and her energy circuit was congenitally blocked.
"My mom recommended some competent therapists who charge a reasonable fee." Peiya's tone and expression didn't change much, but her eyes showed a hint of empathy. "Since they've been looking for therapists all summer, maybe the treatment progress isn't ideal."
"Alas." Jiang Yunu sighed for the unfamiliar injured student.
Afraid that going deeper into the topic might touch upon the trauma of the new friends, Jiang Yunu took the initiative to change the subject.
A name popped into her mind along with the incident being brought up again. She hesitated for a moment, but decided to ask, "What's that person's name...Chen Yijing? He's the captain of the Duma Academy team, right? Does he share the same views as his teammates?"
When talking about Duma Academy, one would inevitably talk about the current captain of their school team. Pei Ya was not at all surprised by the name that Jiang Yunu suddenly mentioned.
"Do you know Chen Yijing?" Pei Ya only sighed at the wide reputation of this team leader of Duma Academy. Even Jiang Yunu, who looked like he jumped out of a stone mountain, knew him.
She nodded in response to Jiang Yunu's question, then shook her head after a moment.
"His attitude is hard to explain," said a knowledgeable Pei Ya brand "Little Smart." "Maybe he disagrees, maybe he partially agrees. On the surface, you can't tell. He's known for not showing his emotions. And even if he disagrees, he'll outwardly go along with the already-stamped announcement."
Jiang Yunu blinked: "What do you mean?"
Pei Ya simply revealed everything she knew: "Chen Yijing is the son of the current president of the Snow Wolf Psychic Association—not any regional branch, but the headquarters in the first district. And the man who attacked and injured someone on the Duma Academy team is the grandson of the vice president of the Golden Horse Psychic Association."
Jiang Yunu was surprised to hear a string of titles and suddenly realized that this was not just a matter between school students, but was also related to the positions of the elders of the young masters and young ladies.
She chewed over Shen Yijing's family background in her heart again and again - ah! A pyramid within a pyramid, a super second generation born at the top of the pyramid!
"President Shen has to give face to Vice President Jin Ma. We've all taken root in District One. Regardless of the actual dynamics between the various associations, the public relations must be maintained." Pei Ya shrugged. "That's the norm for elders, let alone children. Even if opinions conflict in school, it generally doesn't get too unpleasant."
Jiang Yunu slowly digested this complicated relationship.
The large plate of stewed meat that Pei Ya had specially ordered for her was completely eaten up. Jiang Yunu was a true "Clean Plate Campaign" eater, and the plate in front of her was as clean as if it had been licked by a small animal.
She digested the news and, at the same time, digested the high-quality protein in her stomach.
Pei Ya looked at her, who seemed a little lazy after eating and a little slow in thinking about complex relationships. She felt that she was completely different from the ghostly appearance in the previous classroom competition.
Thinking of the classroom, I naturally think of the severely frustrated Lynette Nagu.
Pei Ya thought about Miss Nagu and Jiang Yunu together, and suddenly thought of something happy.
"You know what?" the girl in thick glasses lowered her head slightly, a hint of light from the retro chandelier in the campus cafeteria reflected on her lenses. "If you were also in District One, and your family background was similar to Miss Nagu's, then Miss Nagu might be even more hostile to you."
"Ah?" Jiang Yunu was still slow and lazy. She slowly asked in confusion, "Why?"
"Because if that's the case, then even if you beat her badly in sparring and she loses miserably, when the holidays come and social parties begin, you might still pay tribute to each other at the ball because of family ties, and you might even be asked to dance a 'friendship dance' together."
Jiang Yunu: "..."
Jiang Yunu was shocked: "Really?"
"It's absolutely true." Pei Ya said firmly, "In the First District, respectability is very important."
Even if this decency forces rivals to smile at each other and enemies to be polite to each other.
Jiang Yunu always believed that she was no longer a normal person, but a little neurotic who was prone to going crazy. However, after listening to the "upper class" chasing respectability, she sincerely thought: "Isn't this kind of atmosphere afraid of cultivating a group of repressed mental patients?"
Pei Ya immediately covered Jiang Yunu's mouth: "Shh!"
The respectability of the First District is something that all the subsequent districts try to emulate.
Jiang Yunu's words that openly disrespected the "upper class model" must not be heard by others.
Pei Ya is a good friend who can bring a lot of swimming news and also a friend with a certain talent as a prophet.
A few days later, Miss Nagu's follower appeared in front of Jiang Yunu and sent her a notice letter on behalf of Linette Nagu herself.
To be honest, seeing paper notification letters in this world made Jiang Yunu feel a sense of retro.
"Here," the attendant said gruffly, "Miss Lynette gave it to you. You'd better look at it carefully!"
Jiang Yunu has learned from Pei Ya that these two followers of Miss Nagu are also "hereditary" and their elders are also subordinates of the current head of the Nagu family.
I opened the letter of notification that Miss Nagu had specially sent to me and took a look at it.
It turned out to be a declaration of war with equally retro content.
The specific content of the letter of challenge will not be described in detail. Anyway, Jiang Yunu looked at it from all angles and saw that Linette Nagu firmly conveyed the following meaning:
【We're competing in the "Challenge Cup"! 】
Miss Nagu didn't know how many days she spent researching and writing this declaration of war, and she even divided the results of the two people's competition into different levels.
If Jiang Yunu could still rank higher than Linette Nagu in the Challenge Cup school competition, then Linette Nagu would have to admit that she did have the strength to be called the "most popular freshman."
If Jiang Yunu not only wins the school competition but also ranks high in the region, then Lynette Nagu must unconditionally agree to one of her requests as punishment for being a complete loser.
