Chapter 192
Jiang Yunu hadn't seen Supervisor Waite for a long time.
This period spans one and a half semesters, as well as the New Year and winter vacations.
But it's amazing that she tends to be a little face-blind when it comes to unfamiliar male faces, and has a poor memory of men she has only met a few times. On the contrary, she is very good at remembering female facial features.
Even though they had only met once before, Jiang Yunu was able to quickly recognize the lady in the long trench coat.
After Supervisor Weite greeted the little girl, he seemed to remember that it had been a long time since they last met, and took the initiative to ask, "Do you remember me?"
Jiang Yunu said, "Remember, good evening, Supervisor Wate, you don't look like you're coming to this restaurant for dinner."
Several glances were cast over from where Supervisor Waite had been standing.
"I'm definitely not here for dinner." Supervisor Wei Te was pleased that Jiang Yunu still remembered her. She nodded slightly, her eyes briefly glancing at Pei Ya, who was sitting next to Jiang Yunu. A look of understanding flashed across her face. "Adults are a bit busy at night. Work often overlaps with their regular mealtimes."
The lady in the long trench coat didn't smile, but her tone was filled with a hint of sarcasm and humor.
It was obvious that Jiang Yunu was having dinner here with his classmates and friends, enjoying a normal weekend evening.
The white-haired girl blinked. "I suppose I don't need to apologize for eating?"
Supervisor Wate raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why do you need to apologize?"
"You're too busy with work to eat on time, but I'm having a meal here. It's like smacking my lips in front of someone starving," Jiang Yunu said playfully. "I hope you don't find this comparison offensive."
In fact, in the Snow Wolf Psychic Association, not many people dared to joke with Supervisor Waite. She raised her eyebrows, and her slightly sharp brows also rose.
But the little girl who was looking at her was smiling, and didn't seem to be scared away by her aura at all.
Supervisor Waite recalled the last time they met, in the Floating Light Hall in the Emerald Dome area. This little girl who was wandering around the dining table was in the same situation. When she suddenly spoke to her, she seemed unhurried and even started a conversation with her in return.
Jiang Yunu is very sweet-talker and will take the initiative to bring up new topics when the conversation becomes dull.
For example, at this moment, Supervisor Weite was focused on observing the changes in the white-haired girl compared to the last time they met. He didn't say anything. Jiang Yunu didn't get a response, but she didn't feel embarrassed. She smiled at the lady and said, "Are you thinking about what I said, or are you thinking about how I have changed since we last met?"
Supervisor Wei Te came back to her senses and said, "I was thinking, you really are worthy of being Bi Huaishu's biological student."
Jiang Yunu blinked: "Because I will take the initiative to talk to people?"
Supervisor Waite said, "Because you all talk too much."
Jiang Yunu's expression remained unchanged as she smiled and said, "The principal and I are both very talkative, but you didn't turn away when we were constantly discussing topics. Instead, you took the initiative to come over and say hello to me. I think this is enough to show that you don't dislike people like us who are 'talkative'."
——If this isn’t Bi Huaishu’s biological student, then what is he?
The psychological qualities are exactly the same, and the ability to have a natural conversation is exactly the same!
Supervisor Waite finally smiled.
"You seem to have grown a little taller." Supervisor Weite pressed Jiang Yunu's shoulder, "But your social skills may have improved a lot."
Jiang Yunu said calmly, "Thank you for the compliment."
Supervisor Waite still had work to do here and couldn't chat with the children for too long. She quickly said, "You guys eat well and continue to enjoy your weekend. I'm going to go back to work."
Jiang Yunu nodded honestly.
Supervisor Waite was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh, right, at school lately, be careful to identify the various messages sent to your personal terminals. If you receive unknown emails or out-of-district communications, you can mark them as spam and report them with one click."
After the lady in the long trench coat gave these businesslike instructions, she finally left Jiang Yunu's seat.
Before leaving, she also nodded briefly to Pei Ya, who had been watching the interaction throughout, as a greeting to the other little girl present.
This group of people came and left in a hurry.
During the brief conversation between Supervisor Wei Te and Jiang Yunu, the people who came with her seemed to have communicated with the real restaurant employees who came out of the kitchen, and the two sides exchanged information.
When leaving this retro and green restaurant, one of the people opened the door for Supervisor Waite and let Supervisor Waite step out first. The others followed behind and walked out one after another.
This episode did not disrupt the relaxed and leisurely rhythm of the restaurant.
Or maybe it was because every table here had activated the noise reduction function, so that all observations and discussions were blocked in a series of well-separated small worlds, making the atmosphere appear normal and unchanged.
"Do you know Supervisor Waite of the Snow Wolf Psychic Association?" Pei Ya asked Jiang Yunu this after the surround soundproofing screen at their small table was reactivated, with curiosity in her tone.
There are also friends who question, "How did you secretly meet such a big shot behind my back?"
Jiang Yunu said, "On the first day of school last year, the principal went to a social evening in the Emerald Dome District to solicit investment for the school. He took me with him to sell my misery, and that's when I happened to meet this woman."
It also seemed that he had successfully played the victim in front of this lady.
Pei Ya told Jiang Yunu, "Supervisor Waite is said to have a rather mysterious temperament and a 'lone wolf' aura common among Snow Wolf psychics. She's generally responsible for managing cross-cutting affairs between the Advanced Psychic School and the Association, and overseeing the schedules of major tournaments. She rarely participates in frontline patrols like patrolling the city."
Jiang Yunu will always be amazed by the high intelligence skill points of his friends.
"Was she on duty on the front line just now?" Jiang Yunu asked after expressing his praise for Pei Ya.
"Yes," Pei Ya replied affirmatively. "You might not have noticed it when you were chatting with her, but from what I saw, the people she brought with her gave the restaurant manager some instructions and even showed him a document with the Snow Wolf electronic seal."
Jiang Yunu: "Pei Ya, so you also have the skill of hearing the wind?" Otherwise, how would he know that the conversation over there was actually a kind of instruction?
Facing the white-haired girl's expression, whether genuine or feigned admiration, Pei Ya rolled her eyes. "I don't have that skill, but I can read people's micro-expressions and demeanor. Also, the document has red electronic letterhead, and the title is size 2. The content of the document is hard to read, but the first line is indented four spaces, and the beginning is specially marked with font size, with an independent paragraph of summary, followed by a long text. This is most likely a warning document issued by the association, requiring the person to whom it is presented to cooperate with the legal work of the Snow Wolf Psychic Association."
Regardless of whether Jiang Yunu's admiration was genuine or not, after listening to Pei Ya's analysis, even if the admiration was not "genuine" before, it became 100% genuine at this moment.
In such a short time and at such a distance, the layout and general format of the screen content retrieved from a personal terminal, combined with the changes in facial expressions during the conversation, can determine the direction of the conversation.
Jiang Yunu felt that Pei Ya should not be confined to being just an intelligence officer.
"You are very suitable to be a super interstellar spy." Jiang Yunu said sincerely.
"Thank you," Pei Ya said. "My career path now has a new sub-category within the same general category. That's great."
The incident did not affect the continuation of the dinner.
However, Jiang Yunu still had a question in his mind:
What did Supervisor Wate imply with that last reminder?
Asking students at the Advanced School for Special Abilities to be careful about the messages they have recently received and to identify and mark spam messages may sound very ordinary at first, but when it is said by a woman with such real power, it sounds less ordinary.
After dinner, Pei Ya took Jiang Yunu on a stroll through the brick-and-mortar shopping district, showing her the beauty of Houde City at night and the long-awaited pleasure of strolling through brick-and-mortar stores. When the two returned to the Aolai family's property in Houde City, the attentive electronic butler had already arranged a room for Jiang Yunu. Just as the hidden wealthy woman Pei Ya had said, even a complete set of daily necessities was available, including a set of brand-new pajamas and slippers in Jiang Yunu's size.
Last year, Jiang Yunu used the bathroom at a temporary service point in the Emerald Dome area and felt that the quality and specifications were very high. When she walked into Pei Ya's home today, she understood why such a luxurious bathroom could be used as a public bathroom.
——Because the real rich people in the upper three districts have home bathrooms that are twice as luxurious!
"Excuse me." Jiang Yunu stood at the door of Pei Ya's guest room. She looked at this "guest room" with a private bathroom, a balcony with a view, a dressing room, and a small temporary reception area. She had to pull Pei Ya, who was about to go to the adjacent dressing room to change clothes after sending her here, and asked, "Excuse me, do you need any indoor transportation here?"
"Ah?" Pei Ya gave Jiang Yunu a confused look.
The low-key hidden rich lady in the school seems to have no idea how luxurious her home is and how shocking it is to a poor student.
"It feels like we're a full stop from your front door to this 'home rest area,'" Jiang Yunu said. "One stop is the distance from one public transportation platform to the next at the school gate. Do you understand what 'one stop' means?"
"...Thank you, I am your friend, not a fool who needs your advice." Pei Ya said.
The rich woman thought Jiang Yunu was exaggerating, and she also felt that Jiang Yunu doubted her IQ - how could she not know how far "one stop" was?
Her house is just a little big, not that exaggerated.
"We don't have any indoor mobility devices," Pei Ya said expressionlessly. "If you're not satisfied with my hospitality and really want one, then I think your only option is to ride me around the house. Perhaps I can be a human-powered vehicle for our distinguished guests."
"..." Jiang Yunu knew Pei Ya was joking, and it was a bit of a teasing joke, but she couldn't help but think of that scene, which moved her deeply. She firmly refused. "No, no, I am filled with great gratitude for your hospitality and dare not be dissatisfied in the slightest."
Later that day, Jiang Yunu checked her email inbox on her personal terminal and started from the beginning of the last month.
She hadn't seen anything unusual in her email yet.
So, isn’t Supervisor Waite’s reminder a reminder of what has already happened, but a preview of what will happen in the future?
What kind of "junk contact information" might students at the Advanced School for Supernatural Powers receive in the coming period?
