Monday, September 17th.
In the morning, Valila returned to Backlund University to cancel her leave and return to work.
Because of her vacation last week, her teaching duties doubled this week——
In addition to her original classes on Tuesday morning and Thursday afternoon, she also has to make up for the classes she missed last week on Wednesday afternoon and Friday morning.
Of course, even so, it's not that difficult.
In the morning, in the relaxed and harmonious office atmosphere, Valila wrote the tutorial without spending much thought.
Anyway, the effectiveness of her lectures mainly depends on the eloquence of the "instigator" and the creation of a fanatical learning atmosphere. As for teaching, just write it down. Anyway, she doesn't really care about the lecturer's work.
Work and life on campus are always very stable, and the impact of being away for a week on Valeela is basically this, which can be said to be minimal.
The only special event during her absence this week was an idea gathering event related to mechanical engineering.
The event was initiated by Portland Momont, a full professor in the Department of Engineering. The deadline is uncertain. The main purpose is said to be to find inspiration for inventions through the imagination of faculty members.
In the Luen higher education system, a full professor is not only a professional title, but also a position, which is equivalent to the head of the department.
The way to participate in the event is also very simple, just write down your ideas on paper and drop them into the specially set up inbox.
The rewards of the event are also very generous. If your creativity is recognized, in addition to a cash reward of up to 500 pounds, you will also have the opportunity to visit the private laboratory of this academician of the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Kingdom of Loen.
If that's all, it's not too special.
But if you take into account Associate Professor Barak’s special reminder, how could Valeela not understand the intention behind this activity?
They are setting up a stage in advance, hoping to establish contact with themselves.
If nothing else, the professor should have tried the "acting method" and experienced the wonderful feedback of completely digesting the "General Knowledge" potion... After they have verified their sincerity, they will naturally want to continue. This unfinished conversation, after all, he made it clear last time that the "acting method" is the advance occult knowledge.
Their most reasonable reaction also made Valeela feel relieved——
This way, the risk of her identity being exposed is minimal.
Valeela chatted with her colleagues in the office about creative matters. After confirming that someone had submitted a "draft", she returned to her desk, casually wrote an "idea" and dropped it into her inbox.
“… I hope my creativity will be honored - Valeela Veitch.”
In order to prevent interference with current technological discoveries, she carefully proposed a basically meaningless "idea".
Subversive technological innovations will cause subversive social changes. Valeela now only wants to use her foresight to improve herself, solve her own problems and secrets, and avoid major deviations between reality and the original work. That is what she should do .
Otherwise, let alone electric energy, just mentioning the internal combustion engine would definitely set off a major technological innovation.
And it doesn’t require any extra effort on her part!
From external combustion engines such as steam engines to internal combustion engines using fluid fuel, there is no big technical bottleneck in the middle, it is just a matter of design ideas.
In the afternoon, Valeera left school and returned home to wait for the long-lost "Tarot Club".
The last time she attended the "Tarot Club" was on July 23, which was the fifth time.
In order to make room for the original members and correct the deviation between the real "Tarot Club" and the description in the original book, Valeera has missed six "Tarot Clubs" in a row, and the upcoming "Tarot Club" is already the third Twelve summonses.
The time soon came to three o'clock, and the crimson light appeared on time, bringing her above the gray fog.
…
On the coast of the Sea of Sea, the city of Tillis.
In a townhouse in the port area, Piero leaned back on the seat in front of his desk and tapped the armrest of the seat with his fingers.
He was waiting for Mr. Fool’s call to participate in another “Tarot Club”.
Of course, Piero was not waiting entirely in vain.
During this short period of time when the time was approaching three o'clock, he couldn't help but think about a question again -
Why did Mr. Fool cancel the party last week?
In last week's "Tarot Session", there were only three main things discussed:
The first is the information related to "Vice Admiral Hurricane" Qilingos' infiltration into Backlund; the second is the transaction of the extraordinary material "Pituitary Gland of Adult Colorful Lizard"; the third is Mr. Fool asking "The Sun" about their beliefs and Sacrifice situation.
Could the reason for canceling the party be related to one of these three?
Thinking of this, Piero once again came to the same conclusion——
If it is related, then the most likely related thing is the belief and sacrifice on the side of the "sun".
Mr. "Fool" must have gained something secret from her superficially simple question and needed to concentrate on investigating, which is why he canceled last week's party.
】
Only in this way can the development of events be consistent with Mr. Fool's role in reviving the ancient god.
When thinking of "Tarot Society" and Mr. "Fool", it's hard for Piero not to think of Miss Justice, who has always been optimistic and cheerful, even a little naive.
Piero felt that she was the complete opposite of him.
As an initial member of the "Tarot Club", he also gained a lot of benefits from "The Fool", and he is still quite wary of her... But this later lady actually quickly accepted " The existence of "The Fool" still greets good afternoon with a pleasant and melodious voice at every gathering?
Is there something wrong with her or me? !
And what happened to Miss Temperance? What happened at that party where I asked for leave, and why didn’t she come to it again?
As Piero's mind became increasingly confused, crimson light suddenly erupted, drowning him.
…
Backlund, Queens.
Audrey excused herself from being tired and returned to her bedroom.
She restrained her excitement, did not pace back and forth, and sat quietly on the bed, waiting for Mr. Fool's call.
Dad was busy communicating with other congressmen about the proposals that were about to be submitted, and the Beyonder guards no longer followed me all the time. Thanks to the goddess, my life finally returned to normal! Two weeks have passed. Mr. "The Hanged Man" must have prepared the "pituitary gland of an adult colorful lizard"... I am about to be promoted to Sequence 8! Audrey thought with bright eyes.
For her, this was more exciting and exciting than receiving a reward of 20,000 pounds and a large plantation worth at least 8,000 pounds!
Finally, she saw the familiar illusory crimson light pouring out like a tide, drowning herself.
