Chapter 154: Higher Education Entrance Examination (14)
"Hey, Guoguo, can you hear me?"
"Hello, hello? No, the call should have been connected..."
Zhang You called out a few times, but when he heard no response from Guo Guo, he immediately realized something was wrong: "There seems to be someone next to Guo Guo."
Tang Xin Jue: "And the distance is still very close."
That's why she didn't dare to answer.
They guessed correctly, Guo Guo really didn't dare to speak.
Because right in front of her, another person in the room was staring at her with wide eyes.
From her perspective, the other person was a middle-aged woman with a round face and plump figure. She was sitting on the ground covered with blank test papers. The remaining test papers were wrapped with a few juicy chicken legs. One of them was hanging on her lips, and she slowly put it down after failing to eat it.
Neither of them spoke first, letting the silence quietly spread in the fragrant air.
After a few seconds, Guo Guo swallowed nervously, and finally chose to face the situation instead of running away. He spoke cautiously, "Um...Teacher, you..."
Before he could even utter the word "good" (good), he was interrupted by the round-faced female teacher: "These papers are leftovers. I didn't break any rules. Don't report me!"
Guo Guo: “…”
The three people on the other end of the communication: "..."
Good guy, as soon as an acquaintance opens his mouth, you can tell whether there is anything.
Although it was only one sentence, the four of them instantly understood the identity of this NPC.
That is the repeated encounters in the dungeon, an indispensable part of the 606 dormitory's wool-pulling career, and the representative figure of the non-mainstream naming in the university town - classmate Shang Yinghong.
Oh, now they should be called invigilators.
Guo Guo choked, his eyes swept across the greasy chicken legs on the ground, and finally stopped at the middle-aged woman's face that had no fighting spirit.
Xiaohong: "Burp."
After a guilty burp, the "female teacher" finally tried to muster up her authority as a teacher. She cleared her throat and asked with a serious face, "You, you're not going to take the exam, so why are you hanging around outside?"
Guo Guo: "...I want to find a toilet."
Female teacher: "This is not the toilet, this is my lounge. You are so rude, student, go away!"
She waved her arms vigorously and scolded Guo Guo in a stern voice, but the timid girl with a short bob haircut did not retreat. Instead, she stood still at the door and whispered, "Teacher, I still want to vomit. Can you find me a quiet room so I can vomit?"
Female teacher: “…”
She slowly sorted out her logic: "You feel like vomiting because you saw me?"
" No, no, no ." Guo Guo waved his hands quickly. "I was feeling nauseous, so I was walking unsteadily and accidentally bumped into you. Maybe the exam was too long and I got a heat stroke."
The female teacher looked at her suspiciously, and finally moved her butt slowly.
Then, under Guo Guo's nervous gaze, the other party moved about half a foot to the side, changed to another place and sat down.
"Oh, I don't want to move. Ask the invigilator in that exam room to help you find a room."
While saying this, the other party even adjusted the angle of his body, leaving Guo Guo with only a round back.
Guo Guo fell silent again.
With your back to me, can't I hear you swallowing your saliva over the chicken leg?
But this time, she responded obediently: "Okay, then I won't disturb the teacher."
"Oh, by the way, teacher——"
Guo Guo, who had already withdrawn half of his body, suddenly turned his head again, and the female teacher in his sight obviously stiffened.
She asked, "Teacher, which class are you invigilating?"
The other person's body instantly relaxed, and he answered slowly and vaguely: "Um... fifth examination room on the first floor."
"That's quite far. Thank you for your hard work."
Guo Guo politely stepped back and closed the door.
With a slight click, the door separated the two spaces again. Looking back, I saw no more eager invigilators nearby. Even after walking several meters, the corridor remained quiet and empty.
Only then did she dare to loosen her clenched hands and wipe her sweat on her clothes twice.
——Finally I can breathe!
Xiaohong, who appeared as the invigilator, was nervous, and Guo Guo was even more nervous, fearing that the other party would pounce on her on a whim, and she would be the next "chicken leg" wrapped in the test paper.
The few words that followed, which she stubbornly continued to speak and even talked back to, were more like Tang Xinjue talking to Xiaohong than her.
She was responsible for conveying Tang Xinjue's words through the communicator in a way that Xiaohong would not doubt, and then getting information from Xiaohong's reaction.
…
Walking in the teaching building full of dangers, the voice of his long-lost roommate was the only source of peace of mind for Guo Guo.
She was not far from the room where Xiaohong was, and she didn't dare to speak. She could only listen to the discussion in her ears.
Zhang You had just listened quietly to the entire conversation and now said, "Xiao Hong doesn't seem to really want to cause you any trouble."
Compared to the other three-person exam invigilator NPCs, Xiaohong wasn't just trying to avoid trouble; she was practically slacking off. She clearly didn't want Guo Guo to recognize her, preferring to pretend to be just another invigilator slacking off.
If Guo Guo hadn't accidentally walked into the house and met someone, he might not have been able to find the dungeon boss in the entire dungeon.
Is this still the hard-working Xiaohong they know?
Tang Xinjue was unsure what was going on. After finishing his words, he groaned and disappeared for a few seconds. He reappeared at this moment, his voice unchanged. "This will make things much more convenient for us. Guo Guo, did Student Cai leave anything for you?"
It took Guo Guo a second to realize that the Cai classmate Tang Xin Jue was talking about was the girl with short hair. He was immediately shocked: "Jue Shen, how did you know she gave me something?"
Tang Xinjue: "I guess, she seems to like you very much."
Guo Guo: “…”
"Okay, let's get back to the point." Tang Xin Jue returned to the topic, briefly recounting the exam rules and the lack of the Academic Affairs Office's stamp. Finally, he got straight to the point: "What did Student Cai leave for you?"
Guo Guo: "One, a bunch of keys."
It seems to be a perfect match?
Zhang You: "Heaven will confer a great responsibility on this person."
Tang Xin Jue: "After the task is completed, the spicy chicken feet with yogurt will be split in half."
Zheng Wanqing hesitated for a moment: "If you're really scared, you can wait until I clear all four dungeons in one go in the next cycle. Remember who bullied you first, and I'll come over then..."
Guo Guo: "...Thank you. I suddenly feel that it would be better for me to do it myself."
Although the four of them were in different dungeon spaces, the teaching building's structure was essentially the same. Guided by the experience of the other three, Guo Guo quickly found an opportunity to slip to other floors and began screening rooms that met the key unlocking criteria.
There are three keys in the keychain left by classmate Cai. One is ridiculously large, one is normal to medium size, and one is very miniature.
Guo Guo compared them briefly and concluded that the middle key should be used to open the door, and the smallest key to open the cabinet. As for the largest key, he had yet to find a use for it, so he could only carefully put it away for now.
As the name suggests, the seal of the Academic Affairs Office is likely to be in the Academic Affairs Office. Once the location is found, the two keys will come in handy.
"The academic affairs offices in high schools are usually not very high up, so you can start looking from the lower floors."
Guo Guo felt that what Tang Xin Jue said made sense, but halfway through, he suddenly remembered something else: "Wait, what if this stamp must be done by the NPC in the Academic Affairs Office?"
“…”
There was silence on the other end of the headphones.
After a while, Tang Xin Jue said, "When the time comes, I'll have Wan Qing contact all four examination halls to find you."
Fortunately, Guo Guo's luck has always been good. The time of fear did not last long. He successfully found a locked door on the first floor.
Most importantly, there was a sign on the wall to the left of the door, the paint so peeling that the words were invisible. Based on her years of experience in compulsory education, she knew that only places like offices and the academic affairs office would have such door signs.
"That's across from Examination Room 5 on the first floor. I'm going in now."
Guo Guo squatted in the shadow of the corner like a little mushroom, and when he saw the brief period when the invigilator was not around, he rushed forward in one leap!
Hesitation leads to failure. 606's hope lies in her. There are no difficult dungeons, only brave Guoguo!
The key was inserted into the keyhole at lightning speed, and the door of the room was pushed open smoothly. Guo Guo rushed in like a cannonball and closed the door with his backhand.
Perfect, everything goes smoothly?
The scene inside the house came into view, and Guo Guo suddenly opened his eyes wide:
Directly in front of her, rolls were piled up in a mess on the floor, and several large roasted chicken legs were placed on the ground. One of them was being held to the mouth by a pair of chubby hands, ready to be devoured. However, the owner of these hands had just opened his mouth halfway when he froze in mid-air due to the appearance of the uninvited guest:
Xiaohong stared at Guo Guo in amazement, her face looking as if she had seen a ghost.
The author has something to say:
Xiaohong: Be a human being.
