Chapter 21 Bingzhixie’s lies
Chiram thought for a while, then continued to ask him: "Are you really an orphan and have lost your parents since you were a child?"
Bingzhixie thought After thinking for a while, he said: "I don't know, I haven't seen them, maybe they have died long ago."
"What a poor child." The old deputy dean held his hand and gently stroked his head: "Then how did you grow up? Who raised you?"
"I didn't remember when I was a child, and then I remember my grandpa taught me things, and then I found out his name was Grandpa Da En after he died." Bing Zhixie was still answering their questions with such vague and unclear words. The dean of the college asked a lot of questions and got the same answers.
Chiram listened for a long time before he finally understood: "You are saying that you have been with this Grandpa Dan when you were a child, and what you are learning now is what he taught you?"
"Yes. "Bing Zhixie nodded.
Although the deans and teachers thought this story was bizarre, it was quite reasonable. There are many helpless orphans in this world. They were adopted by a lonely and kind-hearted old man when they were still young and taught him to learn. However, they have never heard of a famous person named Abigail Dane.
Sofina asked again: "Then do you have any other uncles or aunts you know, such as friends and partners of neighbors."
Bing Zhixie shook his head: "I live in In a woods, there were no neighbors. Later, after Grandpa Dan died, I left there. I remember that he died the year before last."
"Oh, what have you been doing in the past two years? You were only 12 years old two years ago. How do you live? Have you met any kind-hearted people again?" Chilam asked.
Bingzhi smiled evilly and said: "I was wandering, and I was given money when I helped other people do some work. Some uncles also lied to me, saying that I would be given money if I helped them work. In the end, I was even They kicked me out without giving me any food. I hate them.”
< br>Sofina couldn't help but feel a little sad. She thought that a helpless 12-year-old child had already begun to survive in the world. She didn't know how much hardship she had to endure. It was already a miracle that she could still survive. However, he was still alive. He was smiling, as if he was experiencing a normal life. Others also sighed, and Gilgil even shed tears of sadness.
Bing Zhixie said again: "When I was wandering, I heard others say that you can learn a lot of things at Kulantin Academy. After studying, you don't have to live a wandering life anymore, so I came. Now I It’s great to finally be able to study here.”
The old vice-dean said: “Yes.” Yes, you don’t have to be like before. You can eat and live here with peace of mind. By the way, you must not have money to pay tuition. Later, grandma will ask you to fill out a form to waive tuition, and then let you do it. You can get a lot of pocket money from some simple tasks, just think of it as a way to sharpen yourself.”
"Is the tuition fee 550 gold coins?" Bing Zhixie took out the bag on her back. A bag full of gold coins was poured out on the table, and then she counted them one by one.
Several teachers were shocked, how could a child who was not a nobleman carry so much money with him.
Bing Zhixie lowered his head to count, smiled slightly, then raised his head and said to the dean and the others: "These gold coins were won in a gambling game in an arena a few days ago, right?" His last words were Ask Bimoye.
The teachers did not expect that this matter was related to Bimoye, and they all looked at him questioningly.
Bimoye glanced at Bing Zhixie's smiling expression and said, "Well, he won 1,000 gold coins."
"Right, so my tuition is paid, and the dean and teachers don't have to worry about it." Bing Zhixie's smile became even brighter, as if he was showing off his abilities.
There is no doubt that even Bimoye said this. As for why he won so much 1,000 gold coins, this is not what the teachers want to know.
At this time, Dean Qilam suddenly asked another question. He was asking where Bingzhixie was at the blue crystal tower that day. Of course, Chiram didn't ask so directly, but very tactfully, as if he cared about him.
How could Bing Zhixie not know his intentions and would suspect that the thief that day would sneak into the college as a student? This is possible. But Bing Zhixie had already prepared a countermeasure: "Ah, I was reading in the hotel. It was such an unlucky day that the hotel owner's pet ran into Cornelia's room next door. It was a snake, which could kill her. They were frightened. Later I found out that the snake didn’t bite, and the waiter treated them to a lot of free ice cream as an apology. Well, I was wondering why the snake didn't come to my room? I heard the ice cream there is delicious."
His answer was really beautiful, and he seemed to be complaining about his luck. No, there was no ice cream to eat. In fact, the time, location, and witnesses were all revealed seemingly inadvertently. Although this witness cannot prove that Bing Zhixie was in the room before the snake attack, who would have thought that a child would panic, let alone such a true lie.
Chiram breathed a sigh of relief. He seemed very happy that Bingzhixie could give such clear evidence: "As I know, you are all very good students. I believe you will perform even better in the college in the future." Excellent. Tomorrow the college will have a school meeting to welcome new students. It is the school's custom that the first to third students will go on stage to give a speech. It is very simple. They just talk about their plans and efforts in the college to motivate themselves and other students. "
"I refuse," Bimoye said suddenly.
The teacher was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why?" Bimoye did not answer, but said: "I think I should be able to refuse this kind of thing."
< br>The younger female vice-dean glanced at Bimoye and went back to reading her book.
Chiram said: "Yes, you can refuse, and the college will not force you. But why? Is there any reason?"
"I don't like it."
The teachers were stunned.
Bing Zhixie and Bimoye said this together. Bingzhi smiled evilly and said: "If I go on stage, others will know me. That will be very annoying. I think I won't be able to concentrate on studying."
Bimoye did not say his reasons, but no matter what the reason, As long as he's not on stage that seems to be all he wants.
The teachers also understand that, as Bing Zhixie said, it will indeed cause a lot of trouble, but many students have always wanted to go on stage to speak, and they have revised their manuscripts again and again, striving to make them the best, like There are not many people who explicitly reject it like this.
The old vice-dean walked up to Sufina with a smile, patted her on the shoulder and said: "It's just like you. You won the first place and were unwilling to speak at the entrance meeting. ”
Sofina also smiled and looked at the two little guys.
Chilam said: "Since you are not willing, the college will not force you. I will ask the teacher to take you to the dormitory later. Bimoye, you must also live in the college. You should know This is Ku Lanting’s hospital rule.”
“Yes.” Bimoye nodded.
Chiram continued: "You are all top students, and you are all majoring in magic. According to the regulations of the college, if you don't have a certificate as a trainee magician, you can only start from the third level of the magic apprentice class. However, The top ten can directly choose to attend the trainee magician class, and the academy will give them You will be issued a magic apprentice card and badge. If you still want to advance, you must leave your identity card and admission ticket here, and the academy will handle it for you.”
Bingzhixie and Bimoye put these two things on the table.
Sufina smiled evilly at Bingzhi and said, "Have you finished eating? I will take you to the dormitory."
"No need." Bimoye stood up and said, "Thank you Teacher Chen, I have to go home and have some things to prepare.”
“Oh, that’s okay. What about you, Bing Zhixie?”
"I'm going to eat the last one." Bing Zhixie took a piece of fruit and took two big bites. He took her hand and said with great satisfaction, "Let's go. I don't know the way yet. It's too big here."
Sofina Heheyi Laughing: "You forgot your purse."
"Oh, I forgot." Bing Zhixie took the purse of 450 gold coins from her hand: "Thank you."
< br>Bingzhixie and Bimoye left the building respectively. Bing Zhixie glanced back, and the scene from two years ago flashed through her mind.
Two years ago, in a deserted land with few trees, a small wooden house was built beside tufts of grass here and there. An old man who was blind in one eye, Ai Bigay Daan lived there. When Bing Zhixie passed by there, he stayed in that house for two nights. At that time, the lonely old man was already dying, with only a dog named Bernice for company. Not long after, when Bing Zhixie returned there again, the old man was already dead, with Bernice's body still in his arms...
Bing Zhixie and Sufina walked into a small teleportation array, and recalling these made the smile on his lips even wider. For a child like him, every sentence has the advantage of being more convincing than an adult.
