Jiang Shi realized that when he first met Si Yue, the weather in Qingbei was always bad, and there was no exception on that day.

The torrential rain was pouring down on his head and face, because he dropped one rank in the final exam results at his original school, and his parents scolded him from home to the school gate.

The driver parked the car outside the school gate, a bulging schoolbag was stuffed into his arms, and then he was pushed out of the car by his father. Muddy water trickled down his trousers and into his shoes.

At this time, a commercial vehicle that was also black stopped in front of him. It was moving very slowly without any splash.

The car door opened in front of his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the silver umbrella handle held by five slender, white fingers. The other party hadn't stepped on a limited-edition sneaker, and the other party blurted out "I rely on it".

There was a scolding that was so gentle that it didn't look like a scolding, "A Yue, what did your mother tell you at home? Don't speak so rudely."

"I know." The boy carried the umbrella on his shoulders, and Jiang Zhiyi had a panoramic view of his unbelievably delicate face. Jiang Shi had seen many good-looking people, and rich people would not let their children be around. Fall behind in any respect.

——But few people can combine pride and pure kindness without any sense of disobedience like Si Yue.

His eyelashes are the longest that Jiang Shi has ever seen. They are not thick, but long and soft. Even when he lifts his eyelids, he looks like a lazy prodigal.

"Your pants are wet," he pointed at the idiot with the crooked umbrella, "and, can you let me go? I can't get out of the car if you stand here."

Jiang Zhiyi moved a step aside stiffly like a sculpture.

The gentle female voice scolded him again.

"Be polite to your classmates," the gentle woman who resembled the boy in front of her smiled shyly at Chao Jiang, "Ah Yue speaks bluntly, so don't take it to heart."

Jiang Shiyi had already forgotten how he answered A Yue's mother at that time, he was just shocked that there is such a gentle mother in the world.

The white jade-like boy had already jumped out of the car. He took the tissue from the woman and handed it to Jiang Zhiyi, "Shoes are quite expensive, it's a pity to get wet."

Jiang Zhizhi squeezed the tissue, turned to catch up, and asked softly, "Do you want to be friends with me?"

Si Yue saw that he was well dressed, so why did he still want to hug his thighs? Although he is the eldest in elementary school, he is not someone who is willing to cover up.

"Going to run errands to buy me snacks."

"Help me with my homework."

"Don't bully the big with the small, and bully the small with the big."

The bad weather that day was not much different from today, except that today's rain was milder, but the rain that day had a heart-warming temperature, and today's rain was so cold that the muscles soaked in the marrow.

Standing downstairs in the counselor's office for a while, Jiang Shizhi felt his whole body was frozen, and the sudden and piercing ringing of the phone in his pocket brought Jiang Zhiyi's more vague thoughts back.

He answered the phone dumbly.

"Professor Fanxi? Hello," Jiang Zhiyi turned and left in another direction, running counter to Si Yue, "Bai Jian wants to talk to you, how much freedom do you think you will have in the project after he joins? The focus should be on the experiment itself..."

The results of the in-class test were sent to the group before get out of class ended in the afternoon.

Si Yue is dozing off, and rainy days are the best time to doze off.

It seemed that it was already night outside. Si Yue rested his cheeks and leaned his head against the glass. The sky outside the window shrouded and collided with the incandescent lamps in the classroom, drawing a clear dividing line between light and dark on him.

When he slept, his face was expressionless, and his facial features showed a sense of inhuman alienation.The smell Bai Jian left on him was already very weak.

Cheng Jue clicked on the table to enlarge it. The order of the names was mermaid first, Cheng Jue ranked last among the mermaids according to their student number, and Si Yue was the only human in their class, who happened to be next to Cheng Jue.

Cheng Jue held his breath, and slowly slid to the column showing the score: 82.

!

It can be regarded as passing the border.

Next to it is Si Yue's score.

98?

98!

"Baby, you got 98 in the exam..." Cheng Jue stretched out his hand and shook Si Yue who was still asleep. While shaking, he browsed up the scores of other people in the class. She scored 96, so Si Yue scored the highest in this quiz.

The teacher is still in the group @了思悦: [Student Si Yue should have a full score, and the two points deducted are the test scores. You should also pay attention to the final exam of Si Yue, you need to spend time practicing calligraphy. ]

Cheng Jue couldn't help but nodded in agreement. During the test, he secretly glanced at Si Yue.

Annoyed by his shaking, Si Yue simply lay down on the table and turned her face out of the window.

Cheng Jue: "..."

The ability of mermaids and humans to take exams is similar, and for majors with equal difficulty, the number of mermaids and humans ranked in the front is generally divided in half.

But in the majors that other mermaids are good at, almost no human beings can pass the mermaid exam.

Not to mention that the mermaid medical school is a specific major that only targets mermaids. The subjects in the first semester are simple, and many exam questions are common sense for mermaids, but they are completely new to humans.

The mermaids in the class were surprised and unbelievable that Si Yue could get perfect marks in this major.

The degree of excess is equivalent to someone knowing more about mermaids than mermaids themselves.

There was a heated discussion in the group.

[I'm sour. ]

[Is Si Yue the lost pearl of us mermaids? ]

[Why can I get full marks?Short answer questions can also test full marks?He cheated?Mr. Bai Jian is so rich, it is not difficult to prepare him a cheating artifact or something. ]

[The mermaid tends to have a higher IQ. ]

[This is a random quiz, and there is no notice in advance, how can I prepare the cheating artifact in advance? ]

[Associate quiz... Will the full score be added to the usual score?How much? ]

[5]

[Ke Siyue is 98, not a perfect score. ]

[Didn't you look at the roster?already added. ]

[acid. ]

When Si Yue woke up, just after class, Cheng Jue looked at him adoringly, "Are you awake? The one I admire most in my life is the bully."

There were only three people in the class who were below [-] points, and three-quarters passed the [-] passing mark. Si Yue was the only one who got a perfect score but had two points deducted because the roll was too bad.

But 98 is also the highest score in the class.

And everyone is mainly because he is a human being but can be the first in the major that the mermaid is good at, no one can feel mixed feelings.

Although it was just an in-class quiz, with such a terrifying talent, I don't know how far the final exam will throw them away. After all, the final exam can be reviewed in advance.

Si Yue wiped the corner of her mouth to make sure she wasn't drooling, then said blankly, "What schoolmaster?"

"..." Cheng Jue couldn't believe that Si Yue's attitude was so light and airy, "You were No.1 in the quiz with a full score, but your handwriting was too ugly, so the teacher deducted two points from you."

Si Yue was still in a daze, and said "oh" very slowly.

Cheng Jue: "..."

After a long time, Si Yue finally came to his senses. He took out his mobile phone and said suspiciously: "Really deducted points from my test? I think my handwriting is pretty good. I thought that only high school Chinese will be deducted points. I didn’t expect to be deducted when I went to college.”

Cheng Jue let out a "huh" and said "who knows", and then asked, "We still have to go to the research institute to report, let's go."

This is the most important thing for Si Yue today.

After confirming that she had really been deducted two points for the test, Si Yue put her phone in her pocket, stuffed two books for today's class into her school bag, and stood up, "Let's go, it's getting dark."

On the phone is a text message from Bai Jian half an hour ago.

[A Yue, be careful. ]

Qingbei is divided into seven districts, and the most remote one is Changshui District where the third research institute is located.

The Changshui District has been left behind by the ZF in recent years. It is not a key development area. It has nothing to do with it. It has no basic conditions for development. Unlike other districts, it is close to the port, tourism, and the local area. The district leaders have brains, and the common people follow suit.

Changshui District also tried to struggle, but in the end it only got the qualification to open a factory, so now that area is full of large and small chimneys, and the machines in the factory are working day and night. Every now and then, a group of assembly line employees with expressionless faces and gray faces can be seen coming out of the gate.

If the sky over the other six districts in Qingbei is covered by fog, then Changshui District is full of thick smoke that does not disperse all year round.

The research institute has studied the B79 reagent that can dilute the thick smoke, which is much better than in previous years. In the past few years, the sky in Changshui District has never been bright.

But despite this, the population of Changshui District is also decreasing year by year, and all the residents who can move have moved away.

From Huaihua Lane Street where Qingbei University is located, at the top speed indicated by the mechanical female voice on the map, I drove for more than two hours before entering Changshui District.

The rain has stopped.

Cheng Jue pressed down the car window, looked at the ditches lined with sewage on both sides of the road, and frowned, "It's nothing compared to the Seven Schools. No wonder the Three Schools were exiled."

Si Yue was glad that the Cullinan with a relatively high chassis was driven to school that day, and it was still black, so it would not knock the car.

The roads in the Changshui District were narrow, and were run over by large trucks one after another. The road surface was completely cracked from the beginning to the end. The better ones were cracks, and the worse ones were ditches of different heights.

Cheng Jue was lying on the window, and the body bumped up from time to time. He grabbed the seat belt, "Slow down, I feel like I'm going to be thrown out."

Driving into the urban area of ​​Changshui District, many shops on both sides of the street are in business, which are not much different from other districts, except that they are slightly dilapidated.

The factory was quite a distance from the main city, but the smoke from the chimney still floated over the city.

Pedestrians on both sides of the road are almost all wearing masks, and they are in a hurry.

As far as the eye can see, there are no commercial buildings towering into the sky like those in other places in Qingbei. The tallest iron tower is surrounded by a circle of posters. On it are models with exaggerated poses, expressions, and makeup, and a line of red advertising slogans next to it: Welcome to Boqi Andrology Hospital!

The urban planning of Changshui District is very bad. It can be said that there is no planning at all, and it is left to its own accord.

Si Yue could feel a lot of eyes on the car he was driving.

Cullinan is not considered a top luxury car, but it is not seen in Changshui District.

The bus parked on the side of the road lost a large piece of iron sheet, and there was a gap as big as a child between the two doors that fell off completely, pulling a car of people on the potholed road with difficulty.

Cheng Jue was dumbfounded.

"I've heard that the Changshui District was broken, but I didn't expect it to be broken like this." Cheng Jue closed the window, and within a short while, he felt his face was covered with something.

"Bah bah." Cheng Jue took a couple of mouthfuls, feeling that there was something in his mouth.

Si Yue's heart was a little heavy, he couldn't see such a place.

Ten minutes later, Si Yue parked the car at the gate of the third school.

Compared with the grand seventh house, which is like a museum, the three houses can only be compared to the small huts - the rusty gates cannot be put down when lifted up, requiring security guards to stand on tiptoe and use iron hooks to tear down the gates, and build them with bricks and stones Up the steps, the plaques on both sides are one high and one low.

"The director told me yesterday that there would be students coming to report. I thought he was still dreaming." The security guard limped on one leg, walking no slower than Si Yue and Cheng Jue. It’s just dawdling, but there are still people here.”

Cheng Jue stood on tiptoe and said in Si Yue's ear, "It's the first time I've seen someone say that about my workplace, and I'm not afraid to deduct his salary."

The security uniform obliquely in front was brand new, and Si Yue remembered the recruitment notice he saw on the telephone pole at the school gate a few days ago, and the documents that Si Jiangyuan said were issued from above.

This person should be the newly recruited disabled person.

Although the gate was old, it was fully functional. After scanning the security guard's face, it slowly opened to both sides, and a long, dark corridor appeared.

The window at the end of the corridor was not closed, and the gust of wind directly penetrated the entire corridor, blowing on the faces of Si Yue and Cheng Jue.

Cheng Jue immediately reached out and grabbed Si Yue's sleeve.

The security guard coughed, and the corridor was lit with green voice-activated lights.

Si Yue: "..."

Cheng Jue followed behind the security guard and asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong with the aesthetics of your research institute? Why do you install green lights?" It's weird.

The security guard scratched his head, but he was not very clear. After all, he was just a newcomer, "Maybe it's because of the green environment."

Behind the urban area of ​​the third location, although it is far away from the downtown area, the sound of sirens and the noise of people not far away can be vaguely heard.

However, it is far away from the coast, so it is impossible to even think about the working environment like the seventh school where you can sunbathe on the beach after a few steps.

The corridor looks narrow and long, but in fact it is not short. The three schools are just not popular nowadays, and their status in the past can be compared with the seven schools.

It's just that the outside looks shabby because it hasn't been maintained for a long time, but there are basically everything that should be inside.

The elevators are divided into passenger elevators and freight elevators, but when Siyue saw a few staff members in white coats pushing carts stacked with three or four containers out of the passenger elevators, she knew that the passenger elevators were only divided in name. And the freight elevator, in fact, you can go wherever you can.

The security guard reached out to help grab it.

Si Yue and Cheng Jue took a few steps back. His eyesight was better than before, and he glanced into the gap of the container. There were foam and plastic bags inside, which were tightly wrapped.

When he wanted to take a closer look, a tall employee stood in front of him and glanced at Si Yue displeasedly.

Si Yue didn't look at him, turned around and followed the security into the elevator.

The security guard pressed the top floor.

"I can still learn a lot in the third institute, because I have work to do. I have only been here for three or four days, and I even went to the laboratory to help with knives," the security guard said proudly, "There is a shortage of people. It takes three or four people to do the work, and sometimes our director will go to the cafeteria to help choose dishes."

Si Yue: "..."

The top floor has a good view, overlooking the entire area of ​​Changshui District, and the hall is much brighter, and the lighting is not green.

There is a pot of green plants at a distance. The name, age and time of last watering and fertilization are hung on the green plants. It can be seen that their owner is a very gentle and meticulous person.

The security guard knocked on a black wooden door at the end of the corridor, and waited for several minutes before the door was opened from the inside.

Si Yue's fingers in his pocket moved, and after Cheng Jue said "Hello, Director", he then said flatly, "Hello, Director."

The director is much younger than they imagined, looking only in his early 30s.

The hair is pulled back neatly, without any mess.Wearing thin-frame glasses with a scholarly taste, the white coat has no wrinkles, and the temperament is elegant and clean.

"Two classmates, come in." Zhou Wenxiao smiled softly.

Cheng Jue was already bewitched, he never expected that there would be such a brilliant director in such a dilapidated experimental building, it was not in vain.

The security guard was waiting outside, and he had to send the two students away later.

The director's office is not luxuriously decorated, and there are no electric lights, and candles are still used.

The sofa is made of wood, and it is not yet summer, and a thin blanket is spread on it. There are bookshelves all around, and the cabinets, tables and chairs that can be seen are all filled with various books. Very nice orchid, just no flowers.

Si Yue glanced out the french windows. It was very strange that there was no skylight, and there was no fluorescent lamp in the office. How did this pot of orchids grow more lush and lush than those in the mountains?

Zhou Wenxiao poured hot water for the two of them, and after briefly asking about some personal information of the two, his smile became softer, "Ah Yue is human?"

His tone is kind.

Si Yue nodded.

"That's excellent," the other party praised sincerely, paused for a few seconds, and then said, "That's right, I know that your college has equipped you with locators, so I need to tell you in advance, the experiment There is a magnetic cutting device in the building, and your locator will have no effect in the limited area."

"But it will be fine after you go out. In addition, mobile phones are not allowed during working hours, and you need to go through security checks before entering the laboratory."

Stricter than expected, although the working environment is broken, but the rules are not less than seven.

"Usually you can come here if you don't have class, but you have to come to study on Saturday and Sunday, you know?" Zhou Wenxiao's tone was very gentle, as if talking to a child, "Next time you come, I will Take you to meet your teacher, the two of them have gone to the fifth school to help in the past two days."

Afterwards, Zhou Wenxiao asked a bunch of more questions, very carefully, and Si Yue answered carefully.

"If you spend your spare time studying, will it affect your relationship?" Zhou Wenxiao smiled and filled Cheng Jue's empty water glass.

While saying thank you, Cheng Jue said naturally: "What kind of relationship is it? Neither Si Yue nor I plan to get married. We are not married." The expression on his face showed no trace of lying.

Si Yue glanced at Cheng Jue, and found that Cheng Jue was not as stupid as he said.

Zhou Wenxiao took the two of them to the next room to take fingerprints, took two new access control cards, and entered the facial identity card. After a series of busy work, Zhou Wenxiao let out a long sigh of relief, "Okay, next time I won't need security guards. I brought you in." He patted Si Yue on the shoulder.

Si Yue doesn't like to have physical contact with strangers very much, and it's still this kind of strangers whose age can't be seen.

Seeing his discomfort, Zhou Wenxiao didn't take it to heart, and politely sent the two of them out of the room.

After closing the office door, the smile on Zhou Wenxiao's face disappeared instantly. He went to the sink next to him, washed his hands with disinfectant hand sanitizer, dried them, and then carefully sprayed the disinfectant on his fingers and palms.

After the disinfectant was dry, he took off his white coat and hung it on the hook, sat down at the desk, and lifted the photo frame that had been turned upside down on the desk in advance.

The photo shows an island, the waves are as white as the first snowfall, the sea in the distance is blue, the seabirds spread their wings, and there are a few mermaids lying on the reefs on the coast. The sun shines down, and the whole island is glowing with a layer of golden light.

On the way back, Cheng Jue chattered non-stop. He had dreamed of working in a research institute after graduation, but now that he had obtained the trainee qualification in advance, he was so excited that he couldn't sit still.

"The director seems to be a nice person, very knowledgeable."

"Even this place is too dilapidated." Cheng Jue turned to look at Si Yue, "Bao, can we come together in the future? I'll come to your house to wait for you, and then we will come to the third school together."

Si Yue gave a "hmm" and said, "But my house is on the top of the mountain."

Cheng Jue: "..." I almost forgot, it seems to be true.

Mr. Bai Jian didn't like the noisy urban areas. The manor was built in the mountains, and the hills belonged to the Bai family. There was also a pasture for horse racing, and a fruit and vegetable greenhouse for his own house, which was not comparable to that of ordinary rich people.

"Then I'll wait for you at the foot of the mountain." Cheng Jue looked at the potholed road outside and the charcoal black sewage that was splashed up, "I can give you the fare." Any amount is fine.

Si Yue didn't nod, "Give me your candy, I don't want your fare."

Cheng Jue generously distributed more than half of the candy in the schoolbag to Si Yue, "I still have some at home, and I'll bring you a whole bag tomorrow."

After sending Cheng Jue back to the school's staff dormitory, Si Yue drove home by herself.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

The street lights on Panshan Highway at night will all be extinguished at ten o'clock at night, which saves electricity and protects the environment, even the Bai family is no exception.

But when Siyue's car drove into the gate, the street lights were turned on by the person on duty in the security office, and the street lights on the entire winding mountain road were all lit up in an instant, like a luminous streamer entangled in the mountains and forests.

Si Yue yawned a lot when he put the key in the garage manager's hand. He was carrying a schoolbag, and while entering the house, he took out a candy from his pocket, peeled off the candy wrapper, and threw it into his mouth.

I haven't eaten much before, but now I realize that there are sour and sweet sugars that are so delicious, it's a loss.

Uncle Chen was making milk tea with Bailu on the coffee table in the living room. Taro balls were tumbling in the antique-looking kettle. Uncle Chen was slowly stirring them with two long chopsticks. A spoonful of milk tea that had been iced long ago was delivered to his mouth.

Hearing the movement at the door, Egret immediately sat up and pricked up his ears.

Si Yue threw her schoolbag on the cabinet and changed her shoes, "I'm back..." he said weakly.

I don't feel it when I'm on the road, but I feel very tired when I get home.

It is estimated that the nerves were too tense when I was in the third institute.

Although the three schools are dilapidated and have many strange places, they are strange at best, not abnormal.

This kind of exiled research institute is not strange but abnormal.

"A Yue, you're back, I miss you so much!" Bai Lu came over to give him a hug, and said pleasantly, "You don't smell like my brother anymore!"

Si Yue raised her arm and sniffed, "I can't smell it."

"You will be able to smell it in the future!" Bai Lu clung to him and refused to get off, "My brother will definitely leave a smell on you later, I haven't hugged you for a long time, let me hug you first."

Like a cat, he not only needs to be hugged, but also to be rubbed.

Si Yue helplessly pushed away Bai Lu's head buried in her arms, "Where's your second brother?"

"He's busy, he's busy singing." Bai Lu's eyes were big and bright, and when he looked carefully, his pupils were purple, warm and delicate like jewels, "I only have you."

Si Yue touched his head, looked at Uncle Chen, Uncle Chen took out the long chopsticks and put them on the silver plate aside, and said slowly: "Mr. Bai Jian is waiting for you in the living room, and said he wants to ask you something. "

"Ask me?" Si Yue was puzzled. Is there any serious matter between him and Bai Jian to talk about besides Qingqing?

Uncle Chen nodded.

Bai Lu stickyly followed Si Yue to the door of the living room before letting go. He would not disturb the two-person world of his brother and Si Yue, so he could only step back to the living room step by step, and sat on the carpet again.

He used his fingers to grab the freshly fished taro balls in the bowl.

"hot!"

Uncle Chen: "..."

"You want something from me?" Si Yue pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Bai Jian.

Bai Jian was making tea again, and the room was filled with the fragrance of tea.

The table has been cleaned up, and beside the teapot are rows of various tea sets that Si Yue can't distinguish. Even the cups have four or five shapes and materials.

Bai Jian was not wearing glasses at this time, and there were only a few wall lamps around the table in the living room, so his eyes looked gentle and tolerant.

It's different from Zhou Wenxiao's gentleness.

Si Yue finally knew why Zhou Wenxiao gave him a very strange feeling - the gentleness shown by the other party was somewhat similar to the feeling Bai Jian gave him, but Zhou Wenxiao's gentleness was very fake and superficial.

"listen and see."

Bai Jian turned off the fire, wiped her fingers, and turned on a few seconds of audio on the computer desktop.

Si Yue looked at Bai Jian curiously.

What are you listening to?

After a brief current sound.

"Is it because Bai Jian is a mermaid that you chose him?"

"Because he's rich, okay?"

Si Yue: "!"

This is his conversation with Jiang Zhiyi at noon.

Why is it on Bai Jian's computer.

When looking at Bai Jian again, Si Yue felt that Bai Jian's gentleness at this time was as false as Zhou Wenxiao's, and Bai Jian was clearly ready to settle accounts with him.

Si Yue's brain was running fast, and he stood up in disbelief, "Are you spying on me?"

Bai Jian propped her chin, tapped her knuckles on the table, "Don't act, sit down."

"..." was seen.

Si Yue sat down resignedly, moved the stool closer, and asked in a low voice, "Where did you get this audio?"

Bai Jian laughed, "What do you think?"

Si Yue opened her mouth, there was no need to ask any more, there was no third person besides him and Jiang Zhiyi in the counselor's office building at noon.

"I won't be angry, but I want to ask, Ayue, did you really choose me because of the money as you thought in the recording?" Bai Jian looked at Si Yue with gentle eyes.

Si Yue bit the bullet, "Isn't it because I owed you three billion that I agreed to the marriage, and it's not like you didn't know about it."

Bai Jian: "..."

"what about now?"

"Of course not now." Si Yue hastily denied, "I really like you now."

There was a smile in Bai Jian's eyes, and he stretched out his hand to rub Si Yue's hair, "Actually, it doesn't matter if I choose me now because of money."

Si Yue frowned, not quite understanding, "Why?"

Bai Jian's palm slowly slid from the top of Si Yue's hair to the side of her face, her thumb slipped between Si Yue's teeth, and she scraped the tip of Si Yue's tongue viciously as a punishment, Si Yue wanted to retreat, but was pinched by Bai Jian Jaw dragged back.

"Because in Qingbei, Ah Yue can't find another person who is richer than me." Bai Jian smiled, with a calm and elegant smile, and she was bound to win.
