At the same time, in the United States, it was still noon in Illinois. Manstein took Professor Martin and Professor Schrontai into the warehouse of the college. Many sturdy school workers were carrying various kinds of equipment back and forth. The large equipment was covered with translucent nylon cloth. Martin habitually took out his mask and put it on properly.
Seeing him like this, the short but strong Shi Longtai narrowed his gray eyes slightly, took off his unilateral copper-rimmed glasses, tucked them up with the corner of his clothes, and slightly opened his thick lips, "I didn't expect you to have such a problem, you are so cute." Si will like people and follow the rules."
Martin adjusted his mask condescendingly and ignored the old fox. The two of them quietly watched Manstein "pointing out the country" while still mumbling.
Since the arrival of Caesar and Chu Zihang, this guy's blood pressure has been getting higher and higher. Seeing that his anger is getting worse every year, people around him consciously stuff a pack of blood pressure-lowering medicine in their bags, or China’s heart-saving elixir is ready for him.
If you are so angry before the war starts this year, how can you still handle it when school starts next week?
No wonder Ange was so enthusiastic about mentioning him as the chairman of the disciplinary committee. Wasn't it because he saw that Manstein was stingy, protective of his shortcomings, and calculated carefully, so he helped him get everything done so that he could feel free?
With him around, Kassel will never go out of business.
People were coming and going, and a colorful figure walked in, and the whole warehouse seemed to light up a little bit.
The Executive Department sent Wu Mingshi. Fortunately, she had been living in Chicago during the holidays and entered the campus one day early, so she was not delayed by the labor movement.
School hasn't officially started yet, so this guy is wearing his own clothes carelessly. The day before yesterday he wore hot pants and a striped shirt, yesterday he wore a full Lolita outfit for a pajama party, and today he wears a more low-key Chinese-style summer dress, although it is the most elegant. The style is conservative, but with her charming eyes and small nose that wrinkles slightly when she smiles, she is still radiant. The uneven lines on her body are usually invisible under the school uniform.
As soon as Shi Longtai saw Wu Mingshi and the cutest little Sun in their executive department, his voice changed and he asked like a coaxing child, "Why does Schneider ask you to run errands again?"
Wu Mingshi bowed slightly, "Didn't Professor Manstein also take you to run errands? I can't call you errands, I can't do anything."
Shi Longtai laughed heartily, "I really don't know whether you are cunning or just a coquettish person."
It was really embarrassing for Manstein to work alone anymore. Wu Mingshi picked up the top book on the pile of registration books and chatted with two professors while writing.
"Xiao Ming, you have always seen clearly and know how to recognize people. No wonder you have such a good relationship with the freshmen. You will have such advantages after graduation. You are talented, courageous, sociable, and have a bright future."
"Miuzan, it's good to be with the freshmen because there are many outstanding people. By the way, talking about a free day, I remembered a very different freshman. He made a bet with me the first time we met. This was the bet. .”
Martin turned around. Wu Mingxi felt that he had aroused everyone's curiosity, and was very proud. He slowly added, "This guy said he would show off his skills this time, which surprised everyone! Then he respectfully welcomed him into the execution department. !”
"This is a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers. He wants to be pinched to death by the two forces of the Student Union, Lionheart Club." Martin shook his head with a smile, disapproving.
Wu Mingshi continued to say nervously, "Qin Li also said that he should not only perform for the student union, but also open Chu Zihang's eyes!"
"Qin Li? The one who falsified the missing information? He added an incredible amount of work to me!" Professor Manstein appeared out of nowhere, boasting and glaring, "Guderian should not have been allowed to do the work. …”
"Fake?" Wu Mingshi was stunned, but Shi Longtai stroked his beard and sneered, "You said before that he was giving you face in the library, but then he openly asked you about the execution department? It's really a surprise. It doesn't matter. , We can’t get involved in the school director’s affairs anyway, so we might as well take a good look at him. My ideas are always in line with Schneider’s. As long as he can be used, that’s fine.”
Martin's eyes lit up, "Why don't we try something new on this year's Free Day? I have an idea..."

In the Paris Opera House and the maze of the underground city, Lions stared at Gérard, trying hard to distinguish his appearance, and flinched at the murderous aura in his body and the dagger in his hand.
Wendy glanced at the empty venue. What happened was that Chuck was calmly ordering people to set up the venue to prepare for the auction of alchemy products and other collections. Qin Luo asked Qin Li for a piece of chocolate and broke it bit by bit.
They seem to be used to it. Wendy opened her eyes wide. In fact, the situation was very clear. The Marquis of Charan probably had some grudge against Lines before, so he specially called a vicious and superficial person to lure Lines into a trap and increase his worries. , missed all the goods in the end, Fred's acting was pretty good, Wendy may have been too shocked after getting started, and really didn't pay attention to so many details.
Everything has happened, and any grudges are useless. Seeing how indifferent Qin Li and Qin Luo were, and then seeing Fred still injured on the chair carefully checking the members of the Mint Club that Gérard gave him as reward, Wendy felt her heart become cold and hard. How many such things have happened underground that I don’t know about?
The weak eats the strong, and too much kindness is just superfluous. Wendy also indifferently picked up a cup of tea brought by the waiter and sipped it quietly.
Although Qin Luo was breaking the chocolate, he had been paying attention to Wendy's expression. Seeing her imperceptible surprise and quick calmness, his eyes showed satisfaction.
"How despicable you were to defraud my daughter of my daughter's serum back then. Today I will give it back to you three times." Gérard did not touch Lyons, but just admired his confused look. "Lines, remember to explain your funeral. It can be regarded as an explanation for the countless girls you have played with."
Wendy sipped her tea. In this opera house dungeon full of dreams and blood, would there be any right or wrong?
The serum is concerned with love and hatred, which is more important than human relations and morality.
Gérard waved his hand cheerfully, and Fred immediately followed. The desperate Lynes was tied up with ropes by several waiters and "sent" out.
Glancing at Qin Luo, who was watching the show, Wendy knew that something had to be said, so she asked in the cautious tone before, "Miss Lois, I don't quite understand what you meant before."
"You want to explain? You want Cassel to deal with me? You can't." Qin Luo smiled sweetly, and Wendy felt a little frightened by her eyes. At that moment, she thought they were golden eyes.
If it were true, how bright and powerful it would be!
"Look, you won't report me, because this may be your opportunity? Little Wendy, they say you are an academic madman, why are you suppressing yourself at this time?" Qin Luo slurred with chocolate in his mouth Said, "Don't you... don't want to try it? Those functions I mentioned before are just to tease you. In fact... the real use should be sold to people like you."
Wendy's face turned pale, she stood up suddenly, and finally calmed down the uncontrollable waves in her heart, and whispered, "I... I'm not sure how much you know about me, but, I, I know what path I should take. .”
"Sorry, I... went for a walk." Wendy glanced at Qin Li, who was silent. Qin Luo was slightly startled, then immediately put on a smile and waved goodbye to her.
Chuck was very busy. Wendy wanted to ask for directions or ask someone for an introduction, but she really didn't want to stay with Qin Luo. She always felt that she was unspeakably dangerous, and Qin Li was always silent. So I had to walk around blindly by myself.
Qin Luo looked at her straight back, and the corners of his mouth raised almost imperceptibly. Did he really go for a walk to relax?
——————
Wendy actually didn't go very far. When she saw that the maze behind the iron gate was unlit, she didn't go there. She just stayed on the hinge side and watched the waiter preparing tea in a small corner separated by a screen. pastry.
The next auction seemed to be just an ordinary collection auction. A much more exquisite door opened on the other side of the rotunda. Dozens of well-dressed men and women who talked and laughed freely came in. They received their license numbers in turn. The men walked. In a hurry, the women landed on the scattered seats with graceful steps like light birds.
It seemed that the dark and romantic maze was only prepared for these "special guests".
Wendy hid in the darkness of the iron gate, listening to Chuck's completely different cheerful tone and the continuous chatter and quotations. It was really just an ordinary auction. Is this Qin Luo taking it all?
The waiter very considerately brought a chair to Wendy and asked her a few questions. Wendy answered politely and continued to observe from a distance.
This is a huge rotunda hall with a vault that is neither high nor low, just right for the crystal chandelier to spread its charming light to every corner. The place where Chuck was standing was a stage-like staircase, and they had sat around the table at the auction just now. The table was now used to display the collection, and the rows of seats under the stairs were curved, like It's a smaller version of the theater.
Only then did Wendy notice that there was a secret door behind a long scarlet curtain around the hall, through which all the collections coming and going came in and out.
So, in addition to the maze, this dungeon also has a layer of space? Wendy couldn't help but be a little surprised, and marveled at the designer's fantastic ideas.
Turning her head and looking around, there was no one around. Wendy stepped out of the shadow of the iron fence, took small steps to reach the very beginning of the curtain, and secretly opened it, revealing an archway connecting the bottomless passage.
