The Damn Shams of Humans (3)

The demon insect glared at him.

Shi An had to reluctantly part with his love: “No, no need, I was just passing by this time…”

“Well then, I respect your decision, and I hope we have a chance to see you again!”

Unexpectedly, Wang Li did not pester him, but politely bade Shi An goodbye and left with his companions.

As the sound of their talking faded away, Shi An turned his head and looked at the demon insect expectantly: “Reward!”

The corner of the insect’s mouth twitched: “At least wait until you’re fully recovered.”

It thought about it for a while, and continued to ramble uneasily: “However, if you want to take a task, try to take it as far away from the school as possible and a low-level rating—it is best not to attract other people’s attention…”

Shi An: “Of course!”

The big tree gradually disappeared from view.

One of Wang Li’s companions couldn’t help but speak:

“Uh, we’re just leaving like this? Then, the candidate for that plan…”

“No hurry.” Wang Li opened his mouth to intercept the other party’s words.

He adjusted his glasses and said calmly, “Only after the admission process is completed, students are allowed to receive assignments, and he has not even heard of the assignments of the academy, which only means that he is still a freshman. He hasn’t had time to go through the whole process yet.”

The companion was stunned, “Freshman?”

Wang Li nodded.

“I didn’t expect that there would be such a strong candidate in this year’s freshmen.”

“But if it’s a freshman, wouldn’t he be unsuitable for such a high-risk action?” The companion showed a hesitant look on his face.

“On the contrary.”

Wang Li’s eyes gleamed behind the lens.

“Before he has received any systematic training, he already has such amazing magical power, and he could release such terrifying spells. Think about it, if he received training from the academy, how amazing this person will become! I can’t imagine a better candidate!”

His companions fell into contemplation.

After a long time, he sighed.

“Indeed.”

“This kind of powerhouse will not be buried, we will definitely be able to see him again!”

Wang Li said with certainty.

After the humans left, Shi An carefully turned the entire nest inside out.

Finally, among the piles of man-made garbage, there was barely half a bag of treasure.

It’s impossible to make a bed with, you could only fit a pillow like this at most.

Shi An sighed, summoning a fire to burn  away the traces of his presence, and then turned to leave.

As soon as he returned to the ward, he was stopped by Lin Yanming:

“Hey, you’re finally back. It’s already afternoon. Where have you been for so long?”

Shi An scratched his head: “Just, went around.”

As he spoke, he put his new pillow on the head of the bed with a thud, and the pillow cover rattled.

“Oh, forget it, put this aside for now,”

Lin Yanming didn’t seem to notice the other party’s movements, but continued with a serious look:

“This morning, your brother in name came to see you and brought a bunch of things. But I tell you, I have a bad feeling about him. I don’t know why, but I feel like this person doesn’t have good intentions. In short, if he comes to you again later, you must be more careful, don’t lose your vigilance, and don’t be fooled like last time…”

Shi An absently replied with an “mm”, then took off his shoes and climbed into the bed.

“By the way, when you were away, someone seemed to be looking for you, they said they called from the Administration Bureau and wanted you to call them back—”

Lin Yanming realized that there was no movement on the other side.

“Shi An? Shi An?”

There was an even sound of breathing from the bed beside him.

Shi An had closed his eyes, and his long eyelashes fluttered on his pale face. The soft strands of hair were scattered on his new pillow, and his expression was extraordinarily serene and serene.

“Call them back, do you hear me?” Lin Yanming repeated worriedly.

Shi hummed, turned over with a mumble, and fell asleep again.

Lin Yanming stared at the young man not far away, and his eyes fell on the pillow jingling as he turned over: “…”

What the hell?

Why does this pillow make noises?

A few days later.

Zhuo Fu came to Mu Heng’s office again.

He asked straight to the point, “How is it? Did you get a call back?”

This time, Mu Heng’s face obviously darkened.

He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, “No.”

Zhuo Fu couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

He had known Mu Heng for so many years, and this was the first time he saw someone who would not suck up to Mu Heng—and more than that, simply ignore him!

He was obviously a little worried.

“Well, what to do then?”

Mu Heng raised his eyes and looked over. His silver-blue eyes seemed to be cold and high in the sky, without any superfluous emotion, he briefly twisted the corner of his lip.

“Tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the Academy of Ability.”

Fuck.

The star of bad omens smiled.

Zhuo Fu was taken aback.

Although he knew it had nothing to do with him, his mind went blank and he asked subconsciously, “An-and then?”

Mu Heng: “The Academy handed me an invitation letter.”

He slipped on his gloves slowly.

“I’ll go this time.”
