Chapter 27
Jiang Yunu didn't expect that Aunt Dai Si also got a number for him, and he exchanged the physical examination form for a physical examination number plate with a three-digit number.
She was a little curious: "Aunt Daisy, so you actually bet I'm over 11 years old?"
"I'm just being prepared," Jodaith said. "That's the wisdom of reliable adult women."
After saying that, Qiao Daisi slapped Joyson on the back. Unable to bear the sight of Joyson still looking dazed, she said, "He's back to life."
The two appointment number cards that were taken together were of course consecutive numbers. Jiang Yunu picked one first, and Qiao Daisi casually handed the remaining one to Joyson.
Qiao Yisen looked distraught, but he still caught the reservation number plate with both hands, muttering to himself: "How can Jiang Yunu be 11 years old..."
Jiang Yunu felt that the other party had been in shock for too long and couldn't help but ask, "Is it really that big of a blow to you that I'm really 11 years old?"
Joyson looked at her helplessly: "...Do you remember what I bet with you?"
Jiang Yunu reacted—Oh! Someone said that if she was really 11 years old, then the other party would eat stewed insoles in a soup pot tonight.
"..." Jiang Yunu's expression changed unpredictably, and he finally put his hand on Joyson's shoulder.
Joyson's expression changed from helplessness to hidden hope: "Our bet, do you think it's just...?"
Jiang Yunu put his arm around his shoulders, smiled sweetly, and said, "Come on! I believe in you! You can definitely move forward bravely and challenge yourself!"
Joyson was devastated.
What was even more infuriating was that during a few conversations, the little golden retriever who was originally in line behind Jiang Yunu also finished his physical examination and came down from the instrument with his physical examination form in a bright and cheerful manner.
The little golden retriever didn't know what Jiang Yunuo and Qiao Yisen were talking about. He had just stood on the instrument. Jiang Yunuo walked out of the queue to greet Aunt Daisy, and Qiao Yisen followed behind her, keeping a distance between them and the little golden retriever. The little golden retriever didn't hear the previous summary, but when he came closer, he just heard Jiang Yunuo's last words of encouragement.
I had no idea what Jiang Yunu was cheering him on for, but the little golden retriever patted Joyson's shoulder enthusiastically and said warmly and encouragingly, "You're right. No matter what you have to face, keep going!"
Joyson: "..." Mom! You're mentally ill!
Jiang Yunu felt that the little golden retriever was a wonderful person, with a talent for being able to enthusiastically and accurately step on other people's minefields.
Jiang Yunu generally appreciates people with this kind of talent.
The appointment number plate that Aunt Daisy received was very smart and electronic. In addition to displaying the appointment number, it also had a real-time scrolling column of "number of people ahead" information, letting the person who got the number know which number had been tested so far, how many people were left ahead, and the estimated number of minutes they would have to wait.
Jiang Yunu noticed that although her and Joyson's numbers were both three-digit numbers and there were more than 150 digits behind, the number of people in the column ahead had been reduced to only two digits.
And in the blink of an eye, the number of people dropped by two.
"Auntie Daisy," Jiang Yunu asked the "reliable adult woman" present, "Did you do the classification test quickly?"
"...I think so." Jodaisi recalled for a moment before saying, "I started doing this many years ago. The machines used to be even slower, and the hospital only had one, so it was quite inefficient."
There are now two classification testers in the Chatt Central Hospital.
With work running at both ends, the efficiency is no longer comparable.
Jiang Yunu felt that they could not continue waiting here and suggested going to the classification test first.
Even if you want to kill time, it’s safer to go there to avoid missing your turn.
Qiao Daisi patted Jiang Yunu's head and said, "Once you found out you were 11 years old, you suddenly became more positive about the classification test, right?"
Jiang Yunu admitted generously: "Yes."
Jiang Yunu was also really curious and wanted to know which category he would be classified into in the supernatural element classification.
"Do you have your own classification tendencies?" Someone suddenly spoke beside him, but it was not Joyson's voice.
Jiang Yunu turned around and found that the little golden retriever was still following them for some reason. Qiao Yisen was in a daze, watching the man who was still immersed in the heavy bet and unable to extricate himself.
It was the little golden retriever who was asking about Jiang Yunu's classification.
Jiang Yunu shook his head: "I have no preference."
The little golden retriever exclaimed, "Huh?" and said in amazement, "It's rare for an 11-year-old to not have a preference. Everyone has one or two favorite options before taking the test. Some are so desperate to be assigned to their favorite category that they even seek help from occultists. They make wishes at home every day before the test, praying for a specific elemental power."
Jiang Yunu got to the point and asked, "Does this kind of wish work?"
The little golden retriever still had a smile on his face and said firmly, "Absolutely! It's useless!"
Judging from the man's resolute tone, which was almost gritting his teeth, Jiang Yunu had an inexplicable suspicion that the other party might also be one of the "metaphysical wish-making school".
Jiang Yunu commented on this wishing behavior: "This result doesn't sound surprising."
The little golden retriever sighed, then turned around and carefully examined Jiang Yunu's expression. "Why are you so calm? You don't have any inclinations, and you don't seem nervous about the classification test at all—unlike your brother, who was so nervous he couldn't speak."
The little golden retriever still took Joyson's attention while talking, thinking that the red-haired boy walked all the way without saying a word, and he was too nervous.
Jiang Yunu knew that Joyce was not only nervous about the classification test, but also because of tonight's "dinner nightmare" that made Joyce unusually silent. However, she certainly would not share these with the little golden retriever she had just met.
The classification test department was right in front of us, with two lines of people lined up in front of the two instruments.
The line was not very regular and orderly, because almost every 11-year-old child waiting for the test was surrounded by one to three accompanying persons. At first glance, there were more accompanying persons in the entire testing line than the people who actually needed to be tested.
It can be seen that the ability classification test is a major life event and one of the few major events in children's lives. It is highly valued by every family.
This high level of attention also caused the team to expand greatly. Jiang Yunu even had to observe carefully several times before he could know where the real head and tail of the team were.
Seeing the crowd of people in the room, Qiao Yisen finally came to life. He was taller than Jiang Yunu, and he aimed at an open space next to the crowded queue and pulled Jiang Yunu over. "Let's stand aside for now. We'll be divided into groups of ten according to our appointment numbers. Only the group currently being tested and the next group to be tested need to queue."
According to this grouping pattern, there are at least five groups ahead of Jiang Yunu and his team, so there is no need to immediately join an overly bloated team.
Aunt Daisy received a work call and left the children in the living room with confidence, letting them pay attention to the number themselves, while she went to a less crowded and secluded place to talk on the phone.
After Joyson settled himself and Jiang Yunu, he seemed to notice that they still had a "big baggage" - the little golden retriever was still following them.
"Why are you following us?" Joyson asked.
Jiang Yunu said, "Are you a little bored after the physical examination and want to chat with two people?"
Jiang Yunu was actually curious about the reason why the little golden retriever followed them, but she didn't really need to know the reason, so she didn't ask before.
The little golden retriever smiled and replied, "We chatted while waiting in line for the physical exam. We got along pretty well and are now friends. My friends are taking the ability classification test today, and I'm definitely going to come along and see the results firsthand."
Joyson felt as if a real question mark was flying across his forehead. He had never seen such a definition of "friend" in his life.
But Jiang Yunu seemed to be much more accepting than Joeysen.
Jiang Yunu nodded and said, "Is that so?"
"...No." Qiao Yisen couldn't help but pull Jiang Yunu, "You won't just accept it like that, will you?"
Joyson's tone was incredulous.
Jiang Yunu possessed an optimism that Joyson lacked, and could more easily understand the train of thought of people like Little Golden Retriever. She comforted Joyson: "It's okay, and even if you say you don't think we've become friends, it doesn't look like he'll give up wanting to be friends with us."
Joyson: “…” Can this be said to someone’s face?
This is indeed something that can be said face to face.
The little golden retriever not only didn't feel that he was being "cricketed" in front of him, but nodded very actively, with a smile that was brighter than the midday sun. He especially affirmed what Jiang Yunu said and said, "That's right!"
Jiang Yunu is miraculously able to resonate with such people. She has a special ability to get along with anyone easily.
Jiang Yunu was very generous. She said generously, "It's good to have a witness for the classification test."
The little golden retriever's eyes lit up: "Really!"
Joyson: "..." No, he didn't think it was good, and he didn't know what he was saying "right".
Unfortunately, in this world, people who are not good at expressing themselves will sometimes be carried away by people who express themselves like anti-aircraft artillery.
Two more groups of people came out from the front in a flash, and it was almost time for Jiang Yunu and the others to prepare for the test.
The little golden retriever asked Jiang Yunu again, "You really don't have your own classification preferences, right?"
Jiang Yunu still shook his head.
Joyson was asked the same question. He hesitated for a moment before also shaking his head and saying, "Anything is fine."
"You two are really 'casual siblings'." The little golden retriever commented on the casualness of Jiang Yunu and Qiao Yisen, and rambled on a few words about the "stereotypes" of people with elemental abilities.
Jiang Yunu hadn't expected that, in addition to some professions being limited to users with specific elemental abilities, there was also such a thing as "elemental stereotypes." This piqued her interest, and she hoped the little golden retriever could talk to her about it.
"That's pretty much it..." The little golden-haired creature organized his words. "Fire-type psychics tend to be hot-tempered and impulsive, water-type psychics tend to be emotionally stable, and wind-type psychics tend to be aloof and lone wolves."
Jiang Yunu thought of the transformable car that took them out today, and the earth-type mechanic Aunt Daisy mentioned. She asked, "What about the earth-type mechanic?"
The little golden retriever was silent for a second, then said respectfully, "Earth-type psychics don't have as prominent personality stereotypes as the other three types of psychics. The biggest stereotype the public has of them is that they're rich."
Jiang Yunu: “!”
Thirty minutes later, it was finally Jiang Yunuo's turn among the ten groups of test subjects. Jiang Yunuo walked into an instrument, and at the same time, Joyson walked into the one next to it.
When he stood on the ability detection and classification instrument, Jiang Yunu suddenly believed in metaphysics and made a sincere wish under the instrument:
Want to become rich!
I don’t know if it had never heard such a wish before, but the detector seemed to get stuck here, and the time it took her to take the test was several times longer than usual.
On the instrument next to him, Joyson had already come out and was standing together with Qiao Daisi, who came to see the results after the communication, and the little golden retriever who was in the audience, waiting for Jiang Yunu. However, the hatch of the instrument on Jiang Yunu's side was still closed and there was no sign of opening it.
Jiang Yunu saw the representative colors of the four supernatural elements rotating on the instrument display screen, like a big turntable in a lottery.
But in the end, perhaps her desire to be rich was too strong, and she saw the light on the screen slowly freeze on green.
——It is the representative color of earth-type psychics.
