After a brief contact, Sandino discovered that Anya may not be as crazy as rumored, although some actions are still too risky...
But overall the girl is very cute and easy to get along with, at least much easier to get along with than the girls of the same age in school.
Cesare's absence from school for a few days also left Sandino without a friend to talk to. There were too many things he wanted to say and he had nowhere to vent them.
He watched the girl's back walking deftly through the flowers and held it in for a while, but then he couldn't suppress his desire to chat for a while.
"You know, someone has actually said that I am brave before."
"Hmm... I don't know." Anya just continued to look forward at the route and responded simply, and it was this sound that further aroused Sandino's desire to share. ''
Sandino continued talking happily.
"Have you ever seen... um... a rat as big as an arm! My home is in the south near the harbor. The rats there are very big, and I dealt with one with my bare hands a few years ago! My family Then call me brave.”
Sandino was talking to himself, but Anya seemed to ignore him, which made the boy a little embarrassed.
"Ha...haha...you're not afraid of mice, are you? I thought girls in general would be...a little afraid of this..."
Sandino didn't know what to say, but the feeling of not getting a response mid-sentence was inexplicably familiar, and he couldn't help but burst out with a sentence that had no beginning or end.
"Has anyone ever told you that...sometimes you seem a bit like...Cesare?"
This question attracted Anya's attention. The girl's small steps suddenly paused. She put her fingers on her face and thought silently for a moment before turning her face to look at Sandino.
"Maybe it's because we have been together all the time, and I was a little bit infected by his temperament."
"Always together!?" Sandino took a deep breath in shock. "Could it be...really, really a date!?"
"Who knows, hurry up and leave, otherwise I won't wait for you anymore."
Anya snorted helplessly, and Sandino also realized that he seemed to have talked a little too much, and he would be annoying if he continued talking. He secretly blamed himself for not always being able to grasp the balance.
No wonder I have been in school for so many years and have never been able to find friends of the opposite sex, let alone girls who have a crush on me.
After that, he followed Anya obediently and stopped asking questions. As they got closer to a crowded place, talking could easily reveal their whereabouts.
Compared with being caught by an adult, Sandino is now more afraid that the weak goodwill he finally built will collapse again.
As we get closer to the auditorium in the teaching area, most of San Carlo's courses are held in this large and majestic building, which is the main building of the entire San Carlo College.
The porch of the auditorium has three huge arches, each with exquisite reliefs and carvings. Above the porch is a row of long windows, which are shaped like arches and emit soft light.
At the top is a towering spire, shaped like a huge arrow pointing to the sky. Next to it is a huge clock, driven by complex mechanical structures and magic.
The light illuminated the sky for a long time, and the noisy voices became louder and louder. Countless figures could be vaguely seen walking around in the distance, among which there were only a few familiar teachers. Most of them were nuns in the school maintaining order.
And more of them were unfamiliar parents who were dressed in luxurious and gorgeous clothes. They were either nobles or well-known gentry. However, there were very few people who kept calm at this time. Most of them were eager to get into the auditorium to handle the divorce of their children. School procedures.
It seems that they are all used to being domineering in the country, and they dare not offend each other without knowing their status. However, they have a hot temper towards the nuns who maintain order, and they can't wait to take their children away.
But the door of the auditorium is only so big, and the school only has so many manpower available. No matter how anxious you are, you can only queue up and wait for the approvals to be completed one after another.
On the way forward, I heard a pair of parents talking hurriedly.
"Have the procedures been completed?" the woman's voice said anxiously.
"Not yet, can't you see there are so many people in front of you! Not to mention our family, in this situation, even if the prince comes, we have to stand here and wait. There is no use in being anxious. Maybe we will have to wait until tomorrow."
The man seemed to respond calmly, but in fact he was sweating anxiously. He gritted his teeth and stretched his neck to look in the crowd. He didn't know how long they would have to wait before it was their turn to enter the auditorium.
"Tomorrow? If you stay in this broken city for one more day, you will be at risk! Didn't you see how rotten this city was when you came?
Many people said that Vargin's troops were going to attack here, and some even said that the people from the church were out of their minds and wanted to destroy the city! "
"Shh!" The man immediately covered the woman's mouth and rebuked loudly. "You don't want your life when so many people are listening! You are the only one who is in a hurry. Do you think I am not in a hurry!?"
The woman shook off the man's hand and was so anxious that she almost cried.
"What should I be afraid of when everything is in such chaos? It was all your fault in the first place! If our precious son had to be sent to San Carlo school, I said this school is not good.
At that time, I should have tried my best to go to Trinity College. It's your fault for saying that gold always shines! Now look for bad luck! In the future, there will still be a lot of things where you should bow your head and ask for help when it comes to transferring schools. What a waste! "
"Okay, okay." The man waved his hands impatiently. "If you want to argue again when you go home, why are you embarrassing me here? You are shameless and I will continue to do it."
As he spoke, he also grinded his teeth and stamped his feet anxiously. "I will find a way to transfer my child to another school. It's not like the family can't get rid of the problem. In this world, if you have money, you will find a way."
The sound gradually disappeared into the sea of people and could no longer be heard clearly, but I still couldn't figure out what exactly happened in this city.
Anya walked carefully through the flowers, avoiding crowded and well-lit places. No one noticed the girl's light walk, just like the breeze blowing through the flowers without leaving any trace.
However, Sandino's pace was much slower, but he kept following Anya's route and did not dare to fall behind even half a step. The sky was getting darker and darker.
If he didn't stare closely at the looming red hair, Sandino would soon be lost alone in the school and lost his way. At this time, he didn't dare to shout loudly, otherwise he would be discovered by the crowd.
Anya took Sandino all the way around to the back of the auditorium, and gradually came to the other side away from the people's queue. She saw that most of the rooms in the high wall of the auditorium on this side were not lit. There should not be too many people here. While busy.
Anya looked at a row of windows on the ground floor and pondered for a while, then put her hair behind her ears and walked toward one of the seemingly ordinary windows.
The window was designed a bit high for a girl, so Anya could only stand on tiptoes outside the window.
These first-floor windows are undoubtedly locked and remain closed all year round to prevent anyone from sneaking in.
But Anya turned her back to Sandino and did something to the window she selected. After hearing several "clicks", the girl opened the window easily.
Then, Anya held the window edge with her hands, pushed herself up, and turned over into the corridor of the auditorium.
