Chapter 236 Guan Feng's Gift

Chapter 236 Guan Feng's Gift

Peter and Yuan Xingming had a lot of opinions about Guan Feng, but it was clear that they mostly respected him. After all, Guan Feng was a veteran, and even their fathers had come from under his command. No matter how arrogant they were usually, they wouldn't dare to mess around with Guan Feng.

Just as they were discussing Guan Feng's matter, the doorbell rang.

Xilin opened the door, and the triplets came over to look at Peller and Yuan Xingming inside the room, saying, "The older brother downstairs, please ask these two older brothers to come over for a moment."

The guy downstairs... the guy...

Peter said sternly to the triplets, "You should call that person downstairs 'Grandpa'!"

The triplets looked puzzled, not understanding why they had to call the young-looking man downstairs "Grandpa." They had originally intended to call him "Uncle," but felt that would make him sound too old, so they called him "Brother."

Yuan Xingming rubbed his forehead. "Bele, the thing we're really arguing about right now isn't the form of address, but rather that Guan Feng wants us to go down. What do you think he'll do to us?"

Peter finally came to his senses, his face full of confusion. "He said he wasn't here to take us back!"

Yuan Xingming curled his lip, "Guan Huli's words cannot be understood with conventional thinking. Back when we were in the First Affiliated High School, he was always thinking about how to torture us. If it weren't for my strong willpower and resilience, most people would have gone crazy long ago."

No matter what, I have to go downstairs even if I don't want to.

Peller and Yuan Xingming hesitated for a few steps, then came back and pulled Xilin over to bolster their courage. Before, when they were scolded, all three of them would be scolded together; now that Ulagano was missing, the two of them had to endure far too much criticism.

However, Guan Feng did not comment on Peller and Yuan Xingming, but he only said one sentence that almost drove Peller and Yuan Xingming crazy.

Guan Feng sipped his tea elegantly. "By the way, I'd like to let you know that the semester exams for the third-grade students are about to begin. I heard that these exams are quite difficult, and those who miss or fail will not have a make-up exam and will be demoted directly."

Peter and Yuan Xingming's eyes twitched repeatedly. They had no doubt about the truth of Guan Feng's words, but they always felt that this old guy was involved in the increased difficulty of the third-year high school students' semester.

Generally, no matter what Peter and his friends do after escaping school, they always return for the semester exams. Even if they miss one, they can take a makeup exam. Although the exams are somewhat difficult, Peter and Yuan Xingming are quite clever; at least they do a good job as temporary workers and always pass safely. But what Guan Feng said... is uncertain!

After saying that, Guan Feng looked at Xi Lin and said, "I heard you dodged four shots from Goreyo."

"No, I dodged two shots, and blocked the other two with my knife," Xilin corrected.

Guan Feng shook his head. "If you don't hit the target, it's considered a failure."

Seeing Guan Feng and Xi Lin talking, Old Man Chang tactfully led the triplets away. The shop had service robots, so even if customers came in, they wouldn't be left unattended. Old Man Chang had originally wanted to arrange a private room for them to talk, but it seemed the person in question didn't have that in mind.

Guan Feng put down his cup, and with a flick of his hand, a briefcase appeared.

The box looks ordinary, but you'll know it feels completely different from ordinary boxes when you touch it. It's made of a rare metal alloy, which is extremely hard; even if you ran it over by a large aircraft, it wouldn't be crushed.

Guan Feng handed the box to Xi Lin: "This is a gift for you. After all, there aren't many people who can avoid the Infernal Thunder Serpent, especially someone your age."

Xilin did not refuse the box, and based on what Peter and Yuan Xingming had said about Guan Feng, it would have been useless to refuse.

Guan Feng opened the briefcase to Xi Lin. Inside were two compartments. One compartment contained some parts, which Xi Lin recognized as gun parts. The other compartment contained some oddly shaped metal pieces of varying sizes, with pointed tips and arrow-like tails. These thin metal pieces seemed to be filled with something, not just plain metal.

To Peter and Yuan Xingming's surprise, the pattern they found when they opened the box—a snake resembling lightning—was the pattern of the Infernal Thunder Serpent. And in one corner, there was a "k" mark. Therefore, the contents of the box were quite clear.

Guan Feng actually gave Xilin a Razer DeathAdder, and a K model no less! I really don't understand why Guan Feng would do this. Even if he were going to give one, he should have given the most basic B model, not the K model. What's the point of giving him the K model? Isn't that just insulting?!

The suitcase lid was open at a 90-degree angle to the table, blocking Guan Feng's view. Guan Feng didn't look at the suitcase, but just looked at Xi Lin, talking and moving his hands at the same time.

"I know that Griffin gave you a recommendation card, so this gift is essentially my recommendation. However, whether this recommendation will be effective depends on your own abilities."

The movements were too fast. Although Yuan Xingming and Peter were able to catch some of the actions, they were completely disjointed, and they missed far more than they caught. When Guan Feng's hand stopped moving, a short-barreled gun appeared in his hand.

Guan Feng touched the gunshot wound with his finger, and before Peter could see exactly where he was touching, the entire gun changed color, from bright white to a completely non-reflective black.

The master craftsman is indeed a master craftsman!

Xilin watched Guan Feng's hand movements with a calm expression, unlike Peller and Yuan Xingming who showed doubt and surprise, making it impossible to discern his true thoughts.

After assembling the parts, Guan Feng picked out a bullet—one of those metal pieces. He chose the smallest one, attached it, threw out the seven small parts he had just bought from Old Man Chang, and then fired almost without any aiming time.

The sound of metal clashing rang out, seemingly almost simultaneously.

The bullet was traveling at such high speed that it struck all seven parts in sequence during its trajectory change, eventually embedding itself in the wall. Most astonishingly, however, was Guan Feng's reaction speed; he had already calculated the angle and timing of his shot based on the trajectories of the seven parts as they were being thrown.

All of this happened in a fleeting instant. It seemed as if Guan Feng casually tossed out the parts and then casually fired the gun, resulting in seven hits out of one shot.

After firing the shot, Guan Feng's hand flashed, and the entire gun fell into pieces again, with the pieces landing in the exact same positions as before it was reassembled!

He picked up his cup again to drink water, his expression no different from before, as if he hadn't done the seven shots he had just hit.

Xilin remained silent throughout the entire process, only reaching out to take the box when Guan Feng closed it again.

After finishing the water in his cup, Guan Feng put the cup down, stood up, and walked towards Peter and Yuan Xingming.

This action immediately brought Peter and Yuan Xingming, who had been somewhat stunned, back to their senses and made them tense.

Guan Feng walked up to Peter and Yuan Xingming, patted them on the shoulder, and said gently, "Prepare well, and I hope you do well on your semester tests."

After saying that, Guan Feng picked up a bag of things he had just bought from the store, walked out, got in his car, and drove away.

Peter and Yuan Xingming were sweating profusely.

It was intentional, that old fox Guan was definitely doing it on purpose!! Was that a threat? Right?! Saying he hoped they would do well on their semester tests, bullshit, he's probably already thinking about what kind of insane questions he'll assign for the semester tests!

"Belle, what should we do?" Yuan Xingming asked with a pained expression.

"What else can we do? We should go back and prepare as soon as possible, and see if we can find any clues. Otherwise, if Guan Laohuli tries to trip us up and we can't get through, it will be embarrassing. Not only will we be ridiculed, but my dad will probably be the one to blame for the next few years."

Hearing their conversation, Xilin asked in surprise, "You guys can even find hints for the test questions?"

Yuan Xingming pointed to the direction Guan Feng had just left outside the store and said, "Since he told others that this semester's test would be more difficult, the implication is that there was a leak of the questions. But how do we find the leaked questions and the hints for them? We have to find them ourselves."

"So, the semester tests actually started the moment he said that?"

Peter nodded: "That's true. In fact, every year before the semester exams, everyone spends time looking for clues to help them, but it's not very effective. The three of us, oh, the third one is Ulagano, whom I told you about, we work together to find clues before the exams so that we can be more confident in passing them."

Yuan Xingming looked at Xilin sympathetically: "If you go to the First Affiliated Hospital, the test questions will be even more insane. Hints will be given, but they will be extremely hard to find."

Xilin wasn't intimidated; on the contrary, he became even more interested. This test was much more interesting than the one at Qiyao. Many of the questions at Qiyao were rather rigid, and even the questions requiring flexible application had a general framework. Overall, they weren't difficult, and for Xilin, they were extremely easy. It seems the exam styles at Affiliated High Schools 1, 2, and 3 are quite different…

After Guan Feng drove the flying car away from the parts market, he turned on a communicator installed in the car.

"His character is acceptable, and he is qualified to enter. Continue to investigate his background... It's alright. The First Affiliated Hospital is training talent; his identity is secondary."

Guan Feng held a component he had bought from Old Man Chang. It was a flying car component assembled from some second-hand parts, and it was assembled by Xilin.

What the person on the other end of the communicator said made Guan Feng chuckle a few times. "You know me best. I just wanted to use Xilin to provoke those kids."

Feeling uneasy after being "intimidated" by Guan Feng, Peter and Yuan Xingming hurriedly left the next day, since they were still students and not completely free.

Old Man Chang didn't know the identities of Peter, Yuan Xingming, and Guan Feng. He asked Xilin, but Xilin only told Old Man Chang that they were all upper-class people.

Old Man Chang understood that the three men had come here because of Xilin, and they were lucky enough to benefit from it, let alone see two "Whirlwind" cars in their lifetime. As for the three men's identities, knowing too much might not be a good thing, especially for an ordinary person like Old Man Chang.

Old Man Chang was very open-minded about some things. After the three left, he stopped asking about their affairs and instead talked to Xilin about Chang Xiaowu's education.

Given Chang Xiaowu's age, he could receive primary education in a city school, but based on his current knowledge, he could go directly to a secondary school.

You can try applying to the top three schools in the star region. These schools conduct preliminary exams online during their special admissions period. The questions on the preliminary exams are difficult even for some students currently receiving secondary education, showing how strict these schools are with their special admissions process. After the preliminary exams, there are a series of processes such as re-examinations and interviews. If you are from a noble family or have strong connections, it will definitely be easier for you to get in. However, for someone like Chang Xiaowu from a family background, he must take a more difficult path like Chang Xiaosan and Chang Xiaosi to gain admission.

Previously in Valenbato, Peller had also discussed the education of the Chang family's children with Xilin. According to Peller, as long as the four children were willing, His Highness could send them to the best schools in the star field with just a word, or even to the capital.

However, based on Xilin's understanding of Chang Xiaowu, this kid has a proud streak. He would rather you take the tests and be tested step by step than rely on the strong relationship with Bile.

Xilin asked Chang Xiaowu, and as Xilin expected, Chang Xiaowu refused. He decided to take the exam himself and go to Valenbato like Chang Xiaosan and Chang Xiaosi, since he knew people there and it would be easier to contact his family.

According to Gray Cat, it doesn't matter which school Chang Xiaowu goes to; what he lacks is a springboard. And Balenbato, which is ranked among the top ten in this star region, is a good springboard that will allow Chang Xiaowu to jump higher and farther.

One night, the gray cat couldn't sleep and rolled around on the bed.

"Xilin, when can we go back? I still have some stuff stored at the base, I wonder if Snowball and Mian Tuan will steal it and eat it." It would never admit that it missed those guys.

Xilin sighed and scratched the gray cat's chin: "I don't know either..."

Perhaps, by reaching a higher level of contact, a trip to the capital might actually yield some solutions.

"Hoo-hoo, let's go to the capital."

"The capital city? Sounds nice. It'll be good to get away and relax. Oh, and there's also that First Affiliated Hospital. I should go check it out too." Gray Cat wanted to know how many idiots like Black Panther were in the First Affiliated Hospital.

"it is good."

After making his decision, Xilin told Old Man Chang about his plans.

The shop hired another employee, Alai, who was also from the working-class area and was in charge of overseeing things. He was a nice young man and, more importantly, had no bad intentions. After Xilin left, he could take care of Old Man Chang and the kids, since robots can't always replace humans.

After everything was arranged, Xilin and Gray Cat set off again for the capital star region of the Lansa Empire.
