Chapter 1555 Approaching
When the morning sun rose, Qin Ran was already walking on the path to the cafeteria.
"morning!"
The teachers and staff who were still cleaning the campus greeted each other, but Qin Ran didn't answer, just nodded in response.
The teachers and staff in Area E of Theorite are already familiar with this chief student who is punctual and the first to appear in the cafeteria every day after getting along with him for a period of time.
He may seem indifferent, but he is actually not arrogant.
Not even arrogant.
Although there are various rumors confirming that the new chief is not easy to mess with, he still observes the proper etiquette.
And, most importantly, we will not act recklessly just because we are powerful.
This is what the teachers and staff at Theoret value most.
As the people at the lowest level of Theorites, they are in a state of mental stress all the time, without the slightest sense of security.
They are afraid of encountering something that will embarrass them.
But not with Kieran.
As long as you don't provoke Qin Ran, nothing will happen.
Even, a considerable degree of security will be achieved.
Because, someone discovered that wherever the new chief walked, no strange beasts from the secret realm would appear in a short period of time, whether it was day or night.
This is really great news for the faculty and staff responsible for various special tasks.
Therefore, his attitude towards Qin Ran became more and more enthusiastic.
It was the same even if Kieran remained indifferent.
"ABC's three sets of five sets each, coming soon!"
When Qin Ran walked into the chief student restaurant, the faculty and staff standing behind the counter immediately started placing orders without any need for Qin Ran to say anything.
After Qin Ran nodded to express his gratitude, he sat aside and waited quietly.
The hunger in my belly came like a tide.
Both his own and 'Gluttony's'.
Kieran is very good at controlling his hunger. After all, food will appear soon, but for gluttony...
"I told you not to fish in the marsh!"
"When catching prey, you should also eat it bit by bit, don't eat it all at once!"
"But what about you?"
"With my mouth open, I wish I could swallow up the whole teaching building."
Qin Ran scolded 'Gluttony' in his heart.
Immediately, 'Gluttony' let out an aggrieved whimper.
He didn't know that the strange beasts in Teoretli would be so timid. He obviously ate them in two separate meals, and when he ate, he also divided them into two bites. In the end, they all ran away.
If I had known this, I might as well have eaten it all at once.
I really miss that elephant-like beast. The first bite was full of meat, and the second bite was full of grease.
"Secret, secret realm."
'Gluttony' stammered.
"Not yet."
“With my current status, I can’t get in there.”
Kieran instantly understood the idea of 'Gluttony'.
'Gluttony' wants to enter the secret realm to eat as much as he can. In fact... he is also very curious about what the secret realm is.
But at this moment, he couldn't leave at all.
The special anniversary celebration is about to begin.
Qin Ran was not interested in the celebration itself. He didn't like crowded places, but he was very interested in the 'fight for food'.
Under this premise, he can tolerate more people.
The gathering of the secret eaters will also start at that time.
There must be a lot of good stuff in it.
Of course, the most important thing is Professor Smith.
After so many days, the other party still didn't show up, or even left any clues, which made Qin Ran secretly vigilant.
"I hope you won't choose the anniversary celebration to disrupt the entire celebration, otherwise..."
Qin Ran, who is bound to get all the food and goods traded by the secret eaters in the 'Food War', has long regarded this anniversary celebration as a taboo. Anyone, anything, or anything that dares to touch or disrupt this celebration will be punished by him. There will be an all-round destruction: from the body to the soul, nothing will be left.
The aroma of food begins to appear.
Roast beef and chicken skewers.
Green peppers and potatoes.
Milk oatmeal and mini ravioli.
The mix and match of various styles of food whetted Qin Ran's appetite. He temporarily suppressed his thoughts and began to concentrate on eating.
Five minutes later, Kieran wiped his mouth, picked up the dinner plate, and put it in the sink.
When Qin Ran left the chief student cafeteria, the freshmen appeared in the cafeteria one after another.
"Morning, chief."
"Morning, chief."
All the freshmen I met along the way greeted them politely.
Just like how he treated the teachers, Qin Ran didn't speak and just nodded in response.
The freshmen were not surprised by this either.
Unlike the teachers and staff, they had spent more time with Kieran and knew very well what kind of person he was.
Maybe cold, but definitely not a difficult person.
Everyone thinks so.
Amidst greetings, Qin Ran returned the same way. Far away, he saw Guti standing on the side of the apartment, holding a thick document in his hand.
Looking at the documents, Kieran frowned, but had no intention of escaping.
Since he had received the corresponding reward, he had to put in the corresponding labor. With such a simple idea, Qin Ran walked over.
"Morning, branch chief."
"This is a document that needs your signature. I will come and get it in the evening."
"Also, do you have time tonight?"
After handing all the documents to Qin, Gudi mustered up his courage and asked cautiously.
"No."
Qin Ran shook his head simply.
In the evening, the canteen had the braised pork set meal that he was looking forward to, so there was no time for anything else.
"oh oh."
"It's okay, I was just asking casually."
"Then I'll come find you tonight."
Guti let out a dry laugh and ran away quickly.
Kieran didn't even look at the other person's back and walked upstairs with the documents in his arms.
He has become accustomed to the other person who seems to have a split personality.
Sometimes they are serious, and sometimes they are inexplicably awkward.
He always comes here several times a day. Fortunately, he is extremely adaptable and has a strong nerve, otherwise he would have been driven crazy by the other party.
Far away from the new apartment building, in the hidden bushes, Guti kept banging his head against the tree trunk in front of him.
Bang, bang bang!
The muffled sound proved that the other party was not joking.
Likewise, the creaking and tilting angles of the tree trunks also proved that every impact was real.
"The 520th failure!"
“Failure hurts!”
"But I won't give up!"
"The more difficult it is, the stronger I have to be!"
Amidst the crunching sound and the toppling sound of the tree trunk breaking, Guti took a deep breath, patted the dirt on his forehead, and walked out with a smile.
…
Step, step.
Amidst the sound of hurried footsteps, Stant appeared in the corridor with excitement, anxiety and anticipation.
"Morning, chief."
"The tree wailer appears again!"
"I must investigate clearly the truth of the incident this time!"
When passing by Qin Ran, the chief student assistant greeted and informed Qin Ran at a very fast speed, and then disappeared in a flash.
Qin Ran looked at the other party running out like the wind and couldn't help but shook his head.
After experiencing so-called campus legends several times, the other party not only did not curb his curiosity, but became more and more enthusiastic and began to chase campus legends one after another.
Of course, the other party is destined to be disappointed.
but……
"tasty."
With such admiration, Qin Ran opened the door of his apartment.
LCD screens took up the entire room.
Except for the bathroom, even the corridors and bedrooms are full of people, and on these LCD screens, most of the situation in the entire E area is displayed.
"Confirmed?"
Qin Ran asked Lester while putting down the document in his hand.
"The two most likely locations have been targeted."
"These guys haven't made any progress over the years. They are still the same old and outdated ones."
"So, I'm pretty sure it should be here."
The former Dark Eater pointed at a location on the LCD screen with a smile.
"Colander Alley?"
Kieran looked at the position on the screen and whispered to himself.
Colander Alley is a branch alley somewhere in Area E. It is very consistent with the terrain characteristics of Teorite. It seems to be close to the main teaching building, but it actually takes a long time to get there.
If it is a secret gathering place, it is really perfect.
As long as a few guards are sent out to keep an eye on the main road, if anything happens, everyone will be able to disperse into the side alleys.
Unless all Theoret's guards are dispatched to block all the side alleys, there will be no threat to that place at all.
"Keep an eye on this place."
"Also, continue to search for Smith's whereabouts."
Qin Ran ordered.
"Yes, sir."
Upon hearing Smith, the former Dark Eater's expression became serious.
He has placed surveillance probes almost all over Area E, but he still has not found the whereabouts of the other party. Either the other party has left Theorit long ago, or he is hiding in those areas.
However, Kieran did not allow him to place surveillance cameras in those areas.
The former Dark Eater obeyed Kieran's words.
Even though he didn't understand why Kieran did this.
But as long as he knew that this was Kieran's arrangement, it would be fine.
Amidst the sound of the keyboard being tapped, the surveillance probe was activated again, and amidst such strange noises, the communicator that Kieran placed aside began to ring.
It's Professor Tails.
"The dinner-level food you want to exchange for is already with me."
"When will you pick it up?"
"immediately."
After Qin Ran answered, he said hello to the former Dark Eater, and then walked to Professor Tails' office in the police station.
Everything went by the familiar route, without anyone blocking him. Half an hour later, Qin Ran walked into Professor Tails' office.
The good old professor was obviously not in good condition.
Not only were the circles under his eyes darkened, but his face was also haggard. It was obvious that he had not rested for a long time.
As for why?
Qin Ran knew it well.
So, he looked straight at the metal box placed on the table aside. Through the glass surface of the box, he saw a plate of golden... steamed eggs!
[Name: Vitality Steamed Egg]
[Category: Food]
【Quality:Ⅰ】
[Attack: None]
[Defense: None]
[Attribute: Golden Gift (Incomplete)]
[Special effects: none]
[Whether this copy can be taken out: Yes]
[Note: Energetic Steamed Egg is an imitation of Golden Steamed Egg. It is also a precious food that appeared in the golden age, but without the main ingredient, Golden Egg, its efficacy is greatly reduced. 】
…
[Golden Gift (Incomplete): Complete and optimize physical attributes]
…
(Note: Food quality will degrade over time after it leaves the storage box.)
…
Looking at the properties of [Energy Steamed Egg], Qin Ran's eyes showed a hint of joy.
He suppressed the "gluttony" of joy and restlessness and looked at the good old professor who was rubbing his swollen temples, and said sincerely: "Thank you."
"Not required."
"These are what you got in exchange for equal value."
The good old professor waved his hand with a smile, as if he was taking it for granted, but Qin Ran knew that if it weren't for the other party, it wouldn't be [Energy Steamed Egg] that appeared here. You know, when exchanging dinner-level food , Qin Ran mentioned the [Golden Gift].
Undoubtedly, the good old professor kept it in mind at that time.
"If Smith encounters trouble, I can help."
"This is my return of favor to you."
Qin Ran picked up the box and after saying this, turned around and left.
Looking at Qin Ran's back, the good old professor couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"What an awkward personality."
"Giving help to others is just an excuse to return a favor."
"but……"
"People are not bad."
call!
Taking a deep breath, the good old professor endured his fatigue and entered working mode again.
Not only Smith's affairs, but the upcoming anniversary celebration also made him exhausted, especially the recent heated battle between the Hilly River and the Ryder family outside the school, which made him have to work hard. .
You know, there are at least two people in Xililiu who are in Teorit.
No one knows what these two people will do.
If the Ryder family also secretly sent people to Theoret in order to take revenge on Hilliliu...
Unconsciously, the good professor felt more pain in his temples.
He didn't know how many years he had had such a headache.
What happened recently?
Why do so many things always happen?
Ding!
Just when the good old professor was sighing, a piercing alarm sounded.
Seeing the dazzling red light, the good old professor immediately stood up and hurried out.
As the good old professor ran, he felt an inexplicable premonition rising from the bottom of his heart——
This time the alarm sound is related to Kieran again!
…
Carrying a box containing dinner-grade food, Kieran walked towards the student apartment happily.
But as he approached the student apartment, a figure stopped him.
The opponent held a longbow in one hand and an arrow in the other, with hatred in his eyes, and his aura made the surrounding air freeze.
Some insects even fled in all directions.
Kieran was certain that this was the first time he saw the other person.
He didn't understand why the other party had hatred towards him.
However, Qin Ran could sense the malice and murderous intent in the hatred.
so--
"Do you think that after Garcia's death, you can still spend the rest of your days in Teoret peacefully?"
"I'll make you understand..."
boom!
Duil said coldly, but the sole of a foot was stamped on his face the next moment, and Duil had no chance to dodge.
Immediately, the cold face began to distort and deform, and the whole body spun and flew into the air.
And the voice of those words stopped abruptly.
