Chapter 257: Chapter 84: Idea (Part 3)

This indicates that her grades for the semester are basically stable.

Su Xiaocai sent a friendly greeting: “Mr. Bai, Uncle Bai, are you really okay with this? I’m scared, please tell me your purpose.”

It took Admiral Bai several hours to reply.

In a nutshell, “Save time, do more research, get the mecha done quickly, give up your silly coconut roll greens.”

Su Xiaocai widened her eyes, how are her greens silly? Growing coconut roll greens is part of livelihood too.

Not convinced.

“Where are the people from the patent office? I haven’t seen them yet.”

Admiral Bai coldly snorted; the patent office has already been smoothed over by him, just wait, very soon.

At this moment, the “very soon” patent office was in trouble.

Faced with the suddenly increased thousands of application materials, they regretted agreeing to the professors’ urging.

Who is this genius, the overtime work simply can’t get it done.

Back to the class schedule, the Mecha Department had an additional course on escape drills, and the Agricultural Research Institute also added an “Insect Man Science” course, similar to what the Mecha Department needs to learn about the habits and battle tactics of the Insect Man, all are subjects focused on understanding the Insect Man.

Su Xiaocai saw the upper levels’ concerns and determination, not bad, at least the leaders care about the people.

That night.

The military announced victory in the great war against the Insect Man, but there were no celebratory words on the official website, instead it turned gray, mourning the sacrificed students and fallen soldiers.

The death toll has already been calculated.

The death toll among soldiers was shocking, nearly six hundred thousand, mostly stationed troops, marines, rescue teams, and non-mecha air forces.

As for the students, counting the missing, about three thousand.

As for ordinary civilians, countless.

A bitter victory.

This morning, mourning sirens sounded on all habitable planets.

The military was greatly weakened, and so were the schools, with a break in their ranks of elites.

Families, shattered because of the death of children.

With many deaths, there are even more injuries, something Su Xiaocai felt deeply.

She patted Xiao Wanzi’s head, not knowing what to think.

“Caicai, don’t be sad, you’ve done very well.”

“Hmm, I’m not sad.” Su Xiaocai composed her feelings, taking Xiao Wanzi and Huahua back to the dormitory in the evening.

Society moves forward, people always have to live, death, however close, can’t affect us for too long.

After almost a whole night’s sleep, that sadness subsided quite a bit.

Su Xiaocai continued working, but her pace was noticeably faster.

Finally, the time came when she must return to the dormitory. School starts tomorrow, she must come back to sleep today, the opening ceremony is early tomorrow, and she was afraid she would forget to come if she stayed in the lab.

Around ten at night, there were not many people moving around the dormitory building.

Su Xiaocai wore a hat, disguised a little, and entered the campus.

Before long, the whispers around began to increase.

“Is it her?”

“It’s her.”

“Should we go ask her for an account?”

Su Xiaocai blinked, quickened her pace, thinking she had even changed her style of clothes coming to school, how did classmates recognize her?

“It’s that shorty.”

“She’s the only one in the whole school who reaches my chin.”

Case closed, heart shattered to pieces, Su Xiaocai frowned, slipped into the dorm, opened and closed the door swiftly, leaving the bold students coming to ask for accounts blocked outside.

Thinking she dodged a bullet, she turned to find the dormitory living room filled with people.

Their eyes locked on her, gleaming with hunger, Su Xiaocai hugged Huahua, shielding Xiao Wanzi in front, “What do you all want to do?”

“Nothing, just want to buy something. As classmates, you won’t refuse, would you?”

The students who came directly were all from the Mecha Department.

They heard the Extraordinary Island game could realistically simulate battles with the Insect Man, enhancing strength.

The official statistics stimulated their nerves, creating a sense of urgency.

They came in teams just to buy the game accounts, not to fall behind.

Su Xiaocai was besieged as her roommates watched with schadenfreude.

Xing Miao, Wu Qingqing, and Feng Wansha just being curious onlookers, wanted to see how Su Xiaocai would resolve it, they had already advised for a long time, but couldn’t persuade them away.

After Su Xiaocai decisively refused to give them shortcuts, these classmates actually started playing the sympathy card.

“Waaah, my roommate got one, watching her play every day makes me fall behind, don’t you have the heart?”

Su Xiaocai was hard-hearted, “Of course I do.”

“The tutor requires us to learn to track Insect Men next semester, no place to practice, classmate could you help out?”

Su Xiaocai once again cruelly and coldly replied: “No help.”

“Damn it, tell us, what will it take to get an account from you?”

A senior leaned against the wall with one hand, voice like a nightingale, “Dear Cai Bao, tell me, what do you want, whatever it is, big sister can give it to you.”
