Chapter 71 Road Trip Tips (XV)
After the counselor gave in, Tang Xinjue did not hesitate: "After I lost my fighting ability, I needed my roommate's protection, but my roommate lost an arm during the exam."
She pushed Zheng Wanqing to the front.
The counselor only took one look and understood the cause and effect of the injury. She thought carefully for a moment and spoke softly:
“Sometimes, loss does not mean incompleteness, but the beginning of another opportunity.”
Zheng Wanqing was slightly startled and lowered her eyes, looking at her empty sleeves. Then she heard the instructor say, "I can't make your body grow again, but I hope my blessing can make you healthier and stronger."
Blessings were generated, and an imperceptible glimmer fell on Zheng Wanqing. She subconsciously touched her head and said, "Thank you, thank you."
"You're welcome." The counselor smiled, "So..."
"So since the human body can get injured and sick, then--" Tang Xinjue changed the subject without leaving a trace, with a sincere and innocent look: "Can our awakened superpowers also get sick?"
She spread out the supernatural weapon in her palm, and the toilet plunger spit out a stream of water.
The counselor was successfully distracted and blurted out: "Oh yes, this is your ability. It is closely connected to you, which is rare. How did you awaken it?"
After Tang Xinjue explained the reason for awakening, she suddenly realized: "So that's it, it's your daily necessities."
The counselor was very interested: "No wonder I feel very familiar and interesting when I see it. What is it called? What is it used for in your life?"
Tang Xin Jue nodded: "It's called a toilet plunger, it's used to unclog the toilet."
counselor:"……"
After understanding the meaning of these words, she nodded dryly: "I see... ahem, regarding its problem, I can only feel that it is not serious. Don't worry, the ability is connected to the main body. If it is seriously damaged, the main body will sense it before anyone else."
In short, it's not a big problem.
Tang Xinjue did not intend to let the other party get away with it, and immediately asked about the specific repair channels.
This really stumped the counselor. She concentrated on thinking for a while, and finally clapped her hands: "There is a special repair shop in the university town, and its business should have been extended to students. I do have the contact information of the repair shop, but it's a pity that I can't express it in symbols that you can understand. You can only try your luck in the exam..."
Before he finished speaking, Tang Xinjue saw a pink flip phone in his hand.
"If the contact information cannot be relayed, why not try entering it into your phone's address book?"
counselor:"???"
She took the phone in a daze, saved the number and flipped through it. Suddenly she was surprised and asked, "My contact information is in there? Is this your phone? How did you get it?"
Tang Xinjue took it back calmly, "This was given to me by a friend of mine."
The counselor took two seconds to react, and gradually realized something: "For many local students in the university town, mobile phones are very precious. Did the friend you mentioned give it to you voluntarily?"
She seemed to understand why Tang Xin Jue had such an outrageous number of high-level marks.
"A gift of goose feathers from a thousand miles away is worth more than the sentiment behind it. In fact, the value of the phone is not important to us. As ordinary students, it is great to receive care from different friends during the exam. Ahem," Tang Xin Jue covered his mouth and coughed weakly twice: " Perhaps is the greatness of friendship."
“…”
The counselor said gently, "Student Tang, judging from the fact that you were able to resist my summons and rebukes just now, your mental strength is very strong. With the addition of your innate ability, it is logical that you can pose a threat to some local students. There is no need to underestimate yourself."
At this moment, the girl was so fragile that she seemed to be blown away by the wind. If she had not just seen Tang Xinjue wiping away the blood from his seven orifices with an expressionless face, she would have almost believed it.
Tang Xin Jue said calmly, "The bug in the exam system proves that it is possible to make mistakes in judgment. Just like the classmate Guo Guo that you are possessing at the moment, although she has the psychic physique of the Yin-Yang Eyes, she is even more timid and fragile than me. I wonder if she will have a psychological shadow in the future because of this..."
The counselor had never felt so clearly what it felt like to be on pins and needles - if she stayed any longer, she might be skinned alive.
Finally coming to her senses, she quickly checked the time and said, "Ah, visiting time is over! Sorry, classmates, I won't disturb your rest, haha."
"Wait." Tang Xinjue suddenly called out, pointing to the phone address book with a new contact, and said with a smile: "College is a connection, and meeting is fate. In order to facilitate our next contact, what is your counselor's name?"
The counselor was shocked. Will we contact each other next time?
Tang Xin Jue emphasized: "After all, our [Special Subject Support Program] was initiated and managed by you."
"……I see."
Is there any way to immediately change the timeline and prevent her from making a decision in the past?
Finally, she could only smile and say she would do it next time while she tiredly and quickly withdrew from Guo Guo's body.
The red eyeball resumed its rotation, and gradually faded away in the darkness. Tang Xinjue carefully observed this scene, and just as the eyeball completely disappeared, she placed her palm against the glass window.
—As cold and biting as ever, the darkness silently hit the glass window, trying to corrode the flesh in her palms.
Tang Xin Jue activated [Counselor's Encouragement], and she seemed to be able to feel that her aura had undergone subtle changes.
At the same time, the surging darkness quieted down and no longer hit the balcony window.
This time, she stood in front of the window for a long time. The darkness reflected her thin face, and in the long silence, she finally showed a smile.
"Xin Jue, are you okay?"
I heard my roommate's worried cry from behind me.
"It's okay." Tang Xinjue shook his head, his eyes brightening astonishingly, and spoke slowly:
"I just thought of something happy."
At six in the morning, Guo Guo looked at Tang Xinjue in front of him, and after much hesitation, he asked, "Xinjue, are you really okay?"
After Tang Xinjue checked the last manuscript, he looked up with a bright look in his eyes: "It's okay."
Guo Guo: ...But you have two big dark circles under your eyes, you don’t look like everything is fine!
With their current physical functions, they can easily stay up late without dark circles under their eyes. Tang Xinjue's dark circles under his eyes must be because he used his brain at high speed all night, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sort out a pile of manuscripts.
Guo Guo and the other two looked at Tang Xinjue while nibbling on biscuits and exchanged worried glances.
They believed that Tang Xinjue was most likely stimulated by the counselor yesterday.
After all, the counselor mistook her for a dark creature and nearly beat her to death on the spot, and he also said in person that even the examination system might mistake her for a ghost. And all of this was due to the excessive dark aura in her body, which did not seem like a human being - for a normal person, this was tantamount to terrible news.
Five minutes later, Tang Xin Jue put down his pen and exhaled: "It's done!"
She spread out a dozen sheets of paper filled with notes: "You should still remember what happened last night. What the counselor said was right. There is indeed a lot of darkness in my body. Yes, it is the darkness of dark creatures."
The three of them were tense and ready to use Tang Xin Jue - as soon as she showed frustration and doubt, they would interrupt her and comfort her with the psychological knowledge they had learned throughout their lives.
Tang Xin Jue pulled out a piece of paper and pushed it in front of the three people: "Look, what is this."
Zheng Wanqing: "A pattern close to a triangle. Is this some new type of mathematical modeling?"
Guo Guo: "Big belly water bottle."
Zhang You: "A cone-shaped space?"
Tang Xinjue shook his head, his eyes sparkling with excitement: "This is my brain."
Three people: ???
She drew wavy lines all over it and asked, "What is this?"
This time the three of them did not dare to answer easily. After a while, Zheng Wanqing looked solemn:
“Is this the water in your brain?”
“…”
Tang Xin Jue's eyes were full of enthusiasm: "These are the dark auras."
She drew four oddly shaped circles within the wavy lines. "I don't need to explain this. You should understand it."
Zheng Wanqing blurted out: "This means that the four of us will always be together - um -"
Guo Guo blocked Zheng Wanqing's mouth, carefully looked at the four strange polygons on the paper, and concluded: "Combined with the information from last night, these should be the four marks left by the ghost on you, right?"
Tang Xin Jue finally nodded and straightened up: "The past three years of nightmares, my extraordinary mental strength, the dark aura that eroded me, and these marks, about everything."
"Today, I finally understand it better."
