That night, before going to sleep, Xi Wei suddenly received a message from Uncle Berg Wang. When Berg got married, he left the optical brain that Xi Wei used to study when he was a child, and left him his contact information. Xi Wei saw the communication message, immediately connected, and said happily: "Uncle Wang, long time no see!"
Berg was still the same, sitting on the edge of the bed in comfortable home clothes, smiling and saying, "Are you still used to it in the new school?"
"School just started today, and the school's conditions are quite good." Xi Wei suddenly asked, remembering someone's name, "By the way, Uncle Wang, do you know Carlo?"
Before Berg could speak, a man suddenly appeared behind him. The man was burly, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looked very honest and honest. He asked curiously, "Carlo? What's wrong with that brat?"
"I'm chatting with Xi Wei, why are you interrupting?" Berg looked back at him.
"..." The man stretched out his hand and scratched his head, smiling innocently.
Xi Wei immediately judged that this person was Drew Behe, the heir of the Behe family, the Alpha who married Uncle Wang. Since Carlo's surname is also Beihe, he must be related by blood, which is why Xi Wei asked Uncle Wang about Carlo.
"I've never met Carlo, but I know this kid." Berg looked back at the man beside him, "Your nephew Carlo is also going to school this year, right?"
"Well, he happened to be at the age of enrollment and went to St. Paul's College." Drew paused and said, "Carol was born with a very high mental strength test. He has been as strong as a cow since he was a child, and he looks stronger than his peers. , It is said that the entrance examination also took the first place in the school... What, did he cause trouble at school?"
Xi Wei said: "No, the teacher chose him as our monitor. I heard that he is from Bei He's family, so I wanted to ask Uncle Wang if he knew him."
"He's my nephew." Drew said, "Are you the eldest prince? Your uncle often mentions you to me. You are really cute. His eyes look like your uncle..."
Before the man finished speaking, Berg drove him away: "You go out first, I have something to say to Xi Wei."
"Oh." Drew went out obediently.
Berg then withdrew his smile and said seriously: "Xi Wei, I contacted you today on behalf of His Majesty. He asked me to explain something to you. Most of the students in St. Paul's College are descendants of the military. Although you are young, But you have to remember your identity as the eldest prince, and pay attention to the background of those children when you make friends. Except for the Behe and Bessemer families, other families like the Orlando family, the Sharman family, the Stoke family, etc., you should not talk to them. They get too close, and it doesn't do you any good."
Xi Wei was stunned. The reason why his father asked Uncle Wang to tell him this was probably because the royal family did not have good relations with those families. When it comes to interests, Xi Wei, as a prince, must clarify his position.
Seeing Xi Wei listening carefully, Berg continued: "By the way, did you take the necklace I gave you when you were born to school?"
"The blue one? I wear it all the time." After saying that, Xi Wei took out a blue spar necklace from under his collar. Berg saw the oval blue crystal shining with fluorescent light on Xi Wei's chest, smiled slightly, and said, "This necklace is said to bring good luck to the owner, so you should take good care of it."
"Got it, Uncle Wang." Xi Wei paused and asked again, "Uncle Wang, how are you doing after you get married?"
Berg said calmly: "It's okay, I'm pregnant, and you may have a little cousin by this time next year."
Xi Wei: "..."
Seeing the man in front of him say "I'm pregnant" calmly, and thinking of the process of being marked by Alpha after he got married, Xi Wei felt goosebumps all over his body—living in this weird world, the pressure It's just too big.
Probably due to the rapid evolution of human beings, the children of the empire are generally more mature, especially the Alphas, who are already very courageous and energetic at a young age, and they have been competing with each other since the first day of school.
On the first morning, there were two classes, vocabulary and grammar, and mathematics. Since the children have learned addition and subtraction within a hundred digits from their tutors before entering school, the teacher will directly teach addition and subtraction with more than three digits and basic multiplication and division—the education in the empire is more advanced than Xi Wei’s previous school courses About three years ahead.
Of course, these lessons were too simple for Xi Wei. He pretended to listen carefully, but in fact he turned on his optical brain to read his own book.
Aidean studied very seriously, and obediently took notes on the optical computer while listening.
Claire in the front row was sleeping on the table again. The math teacher couldn't see it, and called her name directly: "Student Claire, please answer this question."
The optical brain on the teacher's podium displayed the names of every location in the classroom, so even if it was the first day they met, the teacher could accurately call Claire by name. However, the guy who was called didn't hear at all, and was still sleeping soundly.
Xi Wei couldn't help stretching out his foot and kicked his ass lightly.
Claire was kicked awake, stood up in a daze, turned around and asked, "Xi Wei, are you looking for me?"
"..." You pig teammate! I'm helping you, but you sold me without hesitation
The teacher pushed his glasses and said with a sullen face, "Xi Wei, you answer."
Xi Wei had no choice but to stand up and said, "The answer is 137."
The teacher clicked the next question, and a new question appeared on the big screen of the podium. Xi Wei continued to answer: "The answer is 522."
"..."
Xi Wei answered fluently, and answered ten questions in a row. The teacher then felt better and let him go with a smile: "Xi Wei answered very well, and he obviously listened very carefully. Claire, you should learn more from Xi Wei, don't be in class. Time to sleep."
Claire scratched her head: "Understood, teacher."
"Sit down."
After the two sat down, Adrian next to him gave Xi Wei a thumbs up, and leaned over and said, "You are so good, you answered so quickly."
Xi Wei smiled and said, "In the future, you can ask me if you don't understand."
Aidean nodded: "Yes! There are a few things I didn't understand. I'll ask you again when I go back to the dormitory."
Carlo in the front row looked back at Xi Wei, as if saying: "If there's anything special, I'll answer it."
The morning class ended soon, Xi Wei and Aidean went to have lunch together, Claire followed Xi Wei like a fart, Carlo followed Claire again, and the four children went to the school cafeteria to find a place to sit down, Xi Wei couldn't help saying : "Claire, why do you love to sleep so much?"
Claire said: "I don't know, I have been sleeping like this since I was a child."
"When you sleep in class, the teacher must call you by name every day and ask you to answer questions," Xi Wei said.
Claire was also very distressed, scratched her hair, and said with a confused face: "There is a strange thing that I have never told anyone..."
Ed'an and Carlo immediately pricked up their ears curiously.
"Xi Wei, if you come to see me at night, I'll just tell you, okay?"
Carlo: "..."
Adrian: "..."
People who deliberately tantalize are too annoying, Carlo and Aidean came to the conclusion at the same time.
Xi Wei smiled: "You still have a secret? Well, I'll come to you at night."
In the evening, Xi Wei went back to the dormitory to sort out what he had learned today, and then told Aide'an a few topics that he couldn't do. It was already dark, and Xi Wei thought that Claire wanted to talk to him, so he went to the No. 17 dormitory to knock on the door.
It was Carlo who opened the door. Xi Wei was a little surprised: "Are you in the same dormitory as Claire?"
Carlo nodded, then turned around and said, "Claire, Xi Wei is here to find you."
A big golden head popped out quickly, and when he saw Xi Wei, a bright smile appeared on his face: "Let's go."
Xi Wei was puzzled: "Don't say it here?"
Claire said: "Secrets should be told in a secret place, otherwise Carlo will eavesdrop."
Carlo: "..."
The squad leader, who was about to eavesdrop, closed the door with a bad face.
Only then did Claire smile, took the initiative to hold Xi Wei's hand and said, "Let's go."
This guy seemed to like holding his hand very much. Xi Wei felt very awkward and wanted to shake it off, but seeing the beautiful blond hair on the head of the child walking in front and the innocent smile on his face, Xi Wei couldn't help but soften his heart Get up—after all, he is still a child, and holding his fingers is also the softness of a child. Since he trusts himself so much, if he wants to tell him the secret, it should be fine for a child to hold hands, right
Thinking of this, Xi Wei let him hold hands and walked with Claire to the back of the school's dormitory building.
There is a forest there, the trees are all silver-white, especially at night, the shining silver leaves sway with the wind, making people feel like they are in a dream.
Xi Wei didn't know that there was such a beautiful place in the school. Most of the information he usually looked up was about the regime, military, and history of the empire. He didn't pay much attention to plants and animals. This is the first time he saw this kind of tree. He kept asking, "What kind of tree is this?"
"This kind of tree is called a five-star fruit tree." Claire introduced, "I happened to pass by here on the first day I came to school, isn't it beautiful?"
The large silver forest is indeed beautiful, and Xi Wei couldn't help but admire this strange tree with curiosity. The trunk of the five-star fruit tree is thick and straight, and the leaves are very dense. The large oval silver leaves are connected into one piece, covering the moonlight above the head. It is completely covered, but because the leaves emit light, even though it is night, the woods are as bright as day.
Walking in the woods, Xi Wei couldn't help laughing - Claire didn't know what was going on in his head, and he wanted to choose a beautiful scenic spot to tell a secret.
The two of them went all the way to the depths of the woods before Claire stopped, looked at Xi Wei and said seriously: "Xi Wei, after I tell you the secret, don't dislike me, okay?"
The child looked at him anxiously, as if he was afraid of being rejected, Xi Wei held back his smile: "Tell me quickly, I won't reject you."
Claire hesitated for a while before saying, "I feel sick."
"..."
This guy's grammar is so bad that his speech is prone to ambiguity. Xi Wei was silent for a moment before asking, "You mean blood sickness?"
Claire shook her head: "It's not dizziness, it's because I often have nightmares."
Xi Wei was puzzled: "If it's just a nightmare, won't it be fine if you wake up?"
Claire's face was a bit ugly, and she said seriously: "I think I will become another person in my dream. I can see a lot of strange things with him. He has his own parents and many friends. Every time I When I fall asleep, I will become him."
"..." The more Xi Wei heard, the more outrageous he became, his face became serious, "Is the content of your dream real?"
"Well, it's as if it really happened. Moreover, the dreams every day can still be connected. For example, yesterday I dreamed that he was having dinner, and I woke up halfway through the meal. Today, when I continue to dream, he will continue to take the rest of the meal. Finished eating. It's like this every day, as if he was growing up with me..." Claire paused, grabbed Xi Wei's hand nervously and said, "Xi Wei, I'm very scared. Tell me, will you Will one day I fall asleep and become him, and never wake up?"
Xi Wei couldn't help becoming worried when he heard this. According to Claire's description, his situation is very similar to a dual personality. It is said that people with dual personalities sometimes unknowingly transform themselves into another person, and can't even control the words and deeds of the "other self", as if they have experienced a dream. Severe dual personalities generally have a tendency to commit crimes. When they become "another personality", they can easily release the negative emotions suppressed in their hearts, killing people and setting fires without hesitation.
It seems that Claire's nightmare is much more serious than Mrs. Grace's description. Xi Wei couldn't help but said, "Didn't you tell your parents about this?"
Claire lowered her head in frustration: "I dare not tell them, I am afraid they will regard me as a monster."
No wonder he didn't dare to say that every day he would become another person in his dreams, and it was right for a child to be afraid of such a strange thing.
Seeing his pale face, Xi Wei couldn't help stretching out his hand, patted his head lightly, and comforted him: "Claire, don't be afraid, let's go to the school to find a doctor tomorrow, and explain the situation to the doctor clearly .With a doctor to help you, you'll be fine."
Claire was silent for a moment, then nodded, held Xi Wei's hand tightly and said, "If I'm really seriously ill, will you ignore me?"
Xi Wei smiled and said, "No, no matter what, you are Claire."
Claire was a little moved, but didn't know how to express it. After thinking about it carefully, she stretched out her arms and hugged Xi Wei, and said seriously, "Xi Wei, you are so kind."
Xi Wei was very uncomfortable being embraced by the child, but seeing Claire's pale face, he still couldn't bear to push away the little guy who trusted him and hugged him.
Xi Wei reached out and rubbed Claire's golden head, and said, "Don't worry, I'm here."
It was the sympathy in Xi Wei's heart that wanted to protect the "weak". In addition, the two of them were young after all, and Xi Wei didn't want to see Claire schizophrenic.
—If he had known that Claire would grow crooked later, he would never have softened his heart to comfort this little brat.
