At the same time, Chengfeng Middle School hid in a corner.
"Hey, little classmate, keep an eye on the people!" said the admissions director of Fortress University after a scream.
"I'm really sorry." The young man bowed and apologized.
"This accent... Are you from Japan?" Director Mediterranean looked suspicious.
"Yes!" The young man from Japan said solemnly, "You can call me Kuroki."
"If I'm not mistaken, you are here to see Zhou Chuan, right?" Director Mediterranean looked mysterious.
"You guessed this?" Hei Mu was a little surprised.
"You..." Director Mediterranean paused and said, "Don't you know that this is Mr. Fu's hometown? He lives here permanently. Go back to where you came from. This is not the place you should come to."
"What about you? Judging from your situation, it seems that you also sneaked in."
"Can we be the same? Can the people of Kyushu call it sneaking? I just came in to take a look!"
"I came in to take a look, too."
"Then you stay here and see if the security guard comes over and decides whether to beat you first or me first!"
"hehe."
Hei Mu smiled but didn't say much.
After all, he was only eighteen years old and was not noticeable among the high school graduates. Even if he passed by in front of the security guards, they would not be able to react.
So, taking advantage of his age, he walked without hesitation to the nearby school corner and took a picture of the school layout with a "click".
After determining his coordinates, he walked towards the playground with a swagger.
Upon seeing this, Director Mediterranean didn't care that he might be beaten and went straight to the security booth to explain the situation, and was detained the next moment.
The security guards went out in unison to look for the unknown Japanese youth.
“… The above are some of the experiences and insights I have accumulated from my first deck competition and the college entrance examination. I hope it can be helpful to everyone. Thank you!”
"good!"
Thunderous applause and cheers echoed in the auditorium on the left side of the playground.
Hei Mu lowered the brim of his baseball cap, sat down on an empty seat in the corner, and looked at Zhou Chuan on the stage.
As if a flash of inspiration had occurred to him, Zhou Chuan subconsciously turned his head to look at him, his brows furrowed, his heart sinking slightly.
"What's wrong?"
Yu Zhouzhou, who was originally reading a novel, saw that Zhou Chuan's reaction was a little strange after he returned to his seat, so she asked.
"Look at that kid over there..." Zhou Chuan pointed at Hei Mu who was laughing at him from a distance and said, "He is not from our school."
"No matter what, there are thousands of people in Chengfeng. It's normal that you don't know them." Yu Zhouzhou said puzzledly.
"Brother Chuan has a good memory. He said he has never seen him before, so this person is probably not from our school." Yang Liheng said quietly at the side.
"Hey, who are you?" Yu Zhouzhou pointed at the classmate who looked like a passerby, his face full of surprise.
“…” Yang Liheng, who had been in the same class with him for three years, remained silent.
On the other side, Zhou Chuan pondered for a while, then silently held the two spiritual cards of Black and White Impermanence in his palms.
Soon, the boring and long graduation ceremony ended.
He picked up the coat hanging on the back of the chair, left the school gate alone, and walked towards a direction with few people. Kuroki followed decisively.
The two walked one after the other for a long time until they reached an intersection.
In the moment he was distracted, Hei Mu was knocked against the wall by a powerful knee strike. Just as he was about to summon his spiritual card, he stopped because of the coldness on his neck.
—The hook knife at the end of the chain was already hanging next to his “scapula”.
"Classmate Zhou Chuan, it's our first meeting. Please take care of me." He greeted with a sunny smile.
"Japanese?"
The moment Zhou Chuan opened his mouth, Hei Mu felt the chain tighten a little bit, and another pale face with a long tongue also raised a mourning stick high, as if it was about to fall at any time.
"I came here with the consent of Mr. Fu. Mr. Zhou Chuan can check my ID. It's in my coat pocket."
"oh?"
Zhou Chuan took the small certificate with a dark green cover from Mr. Ba and looked through it carefully. His eyes were mainly focused on the ugly signature. It was undoubtedly Mr. Fu's handwriting.
"Oh, it's Kuroki-san."
Zhou Chuan threw the certificate back, and then signaled the Seventh and Eighth Masters to untie his restraints.
"I've heard of Zhou Chuan's name for a long time. When I saw him today... ahem, he is indeed sharp and strong."
"Thank you."
"I came here mainly to pave the way for my classmates." Kuroki stroked his neck and explained, "Aren't our two countries going to hold a youth exchange meeting in a while? No one has been to this mysterious country, so they sent me to come and take a look ahead of time."
"This is interesting. Kyushu has countless famous mountains and rivers, but Kuroki chose the auditorium of our high school. Even Zoro wouldn't get lost like this."
"To be honest, I came here just to look for classmate Zhou Chuan."
"Find me?"
"Yes, on behalf of Baigui University, I would like to invite Zhou Chuan..."
"Poaching?"
“… You could say that.”
"Give up on this idea."
"Classmate Zhou Chuan, we..." Looking at the other party's doubtful eyes, Hei Mu could only lower his eyes and said "OK".
"But..." Hei Mu paused and continued, "Since classmate Zhou Chuan has rejected us, there will be no mercy in future competitions!"
"Hahaha!" Zhou Chuan said with a smile: "Kuroki-san is really good at telling jokes. We are not sympathetic to begin with!"
"But we have hundreds of ghosts." The smiling wolf finally showed his fangs: "Aren't you afraid?"
"You have ghosts, I have ghosts too. Kuroki-san only asked me if I was afraid of ghosts, but I want to ask, are you afraid of me?"
"you?"
Hei Mu was about to speak, but looking at the gradually approaching black and white figures, and the bull-headed giant standing like a statue, he nodded slightly with great sincerity, and then ran away as if escaping with Zhou Chuan's tacit consent.
"Classmate Zhou Chuan, can we have a sparring match at the Demon-Slaying Memorial Tower in three days?"
"Then let's practice."
Watching Hei Mu's quickly departing figure, Zhou Chuan silently took out his cell phone and called He Lengfeng.
"Congratulations on becoming the top scorer." He Lengfeng spoke first.
"Thank you, senior, but now is not the time to talk about this. Someone from Japan has entered Baihu. Does Grandpa Fu know about this?"
"You mean the boy named Kuroki? Did he come to see you?"
"yes."
"Be careful, don't be fooled by that kid's show of weakness. He is quite powerful and is one of the main talents to be trained for the Japanese Hundred Demons Project."
"Senior, do you know the real name or nickname of his card?"
"One of them, translated into Chinese, should be called... Yeqin?"
"Wild quilt?"
Zhou Chuan's eyes moved slightly, and a smile slowly blossomed at the corners of his mouth: "Okay, I understand."
