“Leave, didn’t you see the warning sign there? You Asians are so annoying. You never follow the rules when you go to other people’s places. This isn’t your village or country, where you can go anywhere as you please!” A proud, but short woman who was sweeping the fallen leaves with a broom began driving Mo Fan, Mu Bai, and Zhao Manyan away angrily.
Mo Fan looked at himself. They had disguised themselves slightly according to Mu Bai’s suggestions so they would look more like teachers in their thirties, but it did not necessarily mean a student could treat them so impolitely!
“We aren’t here for sightseeing!” Mu Bai answered for them.
Normally, Zhao Manyan would be the first to speak when they stumbled into a woman. There was only one reason why he would ignore a woman; she did not look like one at all!
Zhao Manyan was a shallow man. He did not bother taking an extra glance at women who were not pretty.
“I don’t care why you are here. The Aorus Sacred Institute isn’t a tourist attraction. You should head to the beach instead. You won’t be sneaking in!” the woman retorted like a Gatling gun.
“(Sigh), let’s not waste our time talking to this ugly b**ch, I’m starving. We should find a few students in bikinis to have lunch with us,” Zhao Manyan said impatiently.
“Who are you calling an ugly b**ch, you blond sissy!” the woman snarled, pointing at Zhao Manyan.
“Who are you calling a sissy? Didn’t you see there’s a guy whose face is as white as a wall beside me?” Zhao Manyan pointed at Mu Bai.
“Zhao Manyan, are you messing with me now?” Mu Bai was seriously impressed. Why did Zhao Manyan have to involve him when he was arguing with a woman?
Mo Fan was not in the mood to waste his time on the arrogant woman. He took out the temporary pass the Aorus Sacred Institute had given them.
“Ah? Are you students? Seniors, I’m sorry. Most students do not use this entrance. Only tourists who do not know where they are going…” The woman’s eyes widened when she saw Mo Fan’s pass.
“Are you blind? Take a closer look at it!” Mo Fan said impatiently.
A student’s ID and a teacher’s ID had the same outer appearance, but the information on them was different.
The woman took a quick glance at the ID and almost threw her broom away in fear. She stared at the three in disbelief.
“Lec…lecturers? I’m sorry, I’m sorry, please forgive me…” The woman almost burst into tears.
“You are just a part-timer at the school. You are not even a student. Who gave you the right to throw your tantrum at strangers?” Mo Fan scolded her.
“I’m really sorry!” The woman was terrified.
If she offended students, she would only be picked on by them, but if she offended a lecturer, she could be fired immediately. Students of the Aorus Sacred Institute were like princes, and the lecturers were emperors!
“If you bring us around, I’ll let you go,” Mo Fan said.
“Huh? But I was told by my senior to sweep the leaves here. I must clean them all before sunset…” the woman said.
“Should you listen to a lecturer or your senior?” Mo Fan asked in return.
“A…a lecturer, of course!”
“Then what are you waiting for? Lead the way!”
——
It was true that the students of the Aorus Sacred Institute did not use that entrance, as it did not lead to the dormitories or the cafeteria. It was mainly for tourists, even though the school was not open for tourists.
The Aorus Sacred Institute only allowed visitors with appointments. They had to have valid visas, sufficient assets, and no criminal records.
Even so, the reservations could only be made a year in advance, so most tourists could only see the institute from the outside.
The three followed the broom-bearing woman around. They were not in a rush to report for duty, as they did not come here to be teachers. Their goal was to find clues about the Black Vatican. They were only thinking of walking around the campus to familiarize themselves with the school first before checking in. Once they checked in, they might find themselves busy with some useless stuff, giving them less freedom to roam around.
“So you are lecturers from China’s national team here for an exchange. The Aorus Sacred Institute has always been famous for its expertise in agriculture. We have around a hundred labs on the Andes Mountains. The smaller ones are around the size of ten soccer fields…” the woman immediately told them the information they were after.
Mu Bai’s lips twisted.
Was this school an agriculture enterprise? It had more than a hundred plantations. Other reputable schools only had a few fields under their names!
Mu Bai suspected the Black Vatican was using the school as a cover to plant Frenzy Poppies, so he wanted to learn how many plantations it had, but now found himself dumbfounded by the answer!
“To be honest, I have an urge to settle down here. With so many resources available, I could easily make anything I want!” Mu Bai murmured.
Mu Bai was a herbalist and a Plant Mage. He still felt like he was in Heaven.
The woman pointed in another direction and said, “Over there are the dormitories, aren’t they spectacular?”
Mo Fan looked over to a field on the other side. He noticed a colorful little town, built like it was from a fairy tale!
The buildings were unique and mesmerizing. Even the paths were built with marble. The material that was normally used to decorate the inside of luxurious buildings was scattered across the town, and that was just the dormitories for the students!
“Mo Fan, tell Dean Xiao that I’m forfeiting my status at Pearl Institute. I’m thinking of enrolling in this school,” Zhao Manyan blurted out.
Seeing for oneself was better than hearing from many others. Zhao Manyan had long heard about the school, yet he only realized how insane it was after visiting it in person!
It was not exaggerating to describe every place outside of the school as the slums!
No wonder even a part-timer felt so superior to others. Anyone who was part of the school would treat outsiders as imbeciles!
A woman with puffy hair came up to them and screeched, “Lily, how bold of you? I asked you to clean the leaves, yet you are having a stroll here with some savages!”
“Senior, it’s not what you think, they are…”
PA! The student slapped the woman across the face before she could finish her sentence!
The woman held her face. Her hair was disheveled, yet she did not dare to show any resentment. She was trying her best to act like she was in the wrong.
Mo Fan was right beside her, but he could not react in time. After all, he had no idea that the students here were all so tough!
