He placed his right hand on his chest, bowed lightly and gentlemanly, then stood up and said:
"Classmate, I'm Cooper, majoring in economics and philosophy. May I get to know you?"
He only introduced his course selections and name, without revealing his identity, family, etc.
This is because he thought that saying these things to a lady he had just met for less than two minutes seemed like he was deliberately showing off.
As the descendant of an orthodox noble family, he certainly disdains such nouveau riche ostentation.
For him, it is decent and elegant to gradually show his excellence and charm in future interactions, so as to naturally capture the other person's heart.
"Forehead……"
After hearing the other party's identity and questioning herself, Bernice felt a little embarrassed again.
Because she didn't know whether she should turn around and walk away in a haughty manner, or reciprocate and tell the other person her identity.
Deep down, she had no interest in this human male who did not possess any extraordinary powers, and she just wanted to leave.
But the high-level wizard Yao Lingwu seemed to want her to have some contact with the other party, so she didn't dare to make a decision on her own.
Qi Ji didn't let Bernice hesitate for too long. As soon as the young man Cooper finished talking, she said to the vampire:
"Don't worry about him, just go."
"call……"
Bernice immediately breathed a sigh of relief and glanced coldly at Cooper, who was smiling.
Then, without saying a word, she opened her legs wrapped in black knee-high stockings, walked around him, and walked away quickly.
"Ah, that... uh..."
Cooper wanted to keep her, but then he thought that she was a student in the school, and her appearance was so unique and distinctive that it would not be difficult to find her.
There is absolutely no need to be so shameless now and leave a bad impression on the other party.
So, he stood there without saying anything, watching the strange long-haired girl walk away.
At the end of that direction, the huge and magnificent core library stands tall on the square.
"You have to be prepared."
When Bernice approached the library, Qi Ji suddenly said:
"Wait a minute... there might be a fight."

A new week, please like it!
Chapter 250: Bad Omen
In the library with tall buildings, Donna sat alone in a remote chair.
She placed her hands under the table, twisting her fingers nervously, and obvious nervousness appeared on her pretty face.
On the table in front of him, there was an open ink bottle with a dip pen inserted in it.
She looked like she was preparing to review, but Donna's eyes kept moving away from the exercise book, and she looked around nervously with flickering eyes.
She had been sitting here for nearly half an hour, but she hadn't solved any difficult problems. She didn't even pay much attention to her exercise book.
"What should I do? What should I do? Xiaoyao bumped into Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I was right next to her at the time..."
Donna's legs were shaking uncontrollably, and all sorts of messy thoughts were spreading uncontrollably in her mind.
"Her Royal Highness will surely be able to see it... Xiaoyao and I are companions. If this happens, she might find me... What should I do? If Her Royal Highness is unhappy, will I be expelled from school..."
The more she thought about it, the more anxious and scared she became. In the end, her face looked like she was about to cry, and cold sweat oozed from her smooth forehead.
At this moment, a shadow suddenly walked past him.
Donna subconsciously turned her head and looked towards the source of the shadow.
She found that it was a male cleaner wearing a vest, who was holding a broom and dustpan, slowly cleaning the aisle beside her.
This was a man in his fifties, with graying hair, a thin build, and nondescript facial features.
He is a very common old man with not many memorable points.
Donna just took a quick glance and then looked away, continuing to stare at the exercise book on the table with her unfocused pupils, her inner anxiety not diminished at all.
"...Child, you look unhappy?"
But within a few seconds, an old and mellow voice suddenly came, interrupting her wandering thoughts.
"Well?"
Donna turned her head and saw the male cleaner just passing by her seat. He was still bending over to clean, but he was looking at her out of the corner of his eye.
It was obvious that he was talking to himself just now.
"No, it's okay..."
She shook her head, but the distress and worry on her face completely betrayed her true thoughts.
The cleaning lady chuckled a few times, straightened her upper body, leaned on the broom with both hands, looked at Donna with a very kind and gentle look, and said in a mellow and low voice:
"Are you worried about something?"
"It's okay, it's really okay."
Faced with the overly enthusiastic cleaning lady, Donna suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but she kept shaking her head and insisted on what she had just said.
She didn't think an ordinary cleaner could provide her with any help.
In addition, this kind of thing involves the reputation of the royal family. If you are tainted in the slightest way, it will be difficult to completely escape.
This is one of the survival wisdoms she has accumulated over generations as a child of the common people.
She didn't want the old cleaning lady to get into any unnecessary trouble because of her momentary enthusiasm.
So, she didn't reveal any information, but just looked at the cleaning old man with pleading eyes and said in a serious tone:
"It's just some...um, emotional personal matters, nothing serious, you...don't worry..."
The cleaning man stood there, looking at Donna with an unreadable gaze for a few seconds, then smiled and nodded slightly:
"Well, I won't mind my business anymore."
After saying that, he bent down and continued to sweep the floor with a broom and dustpan, moving away little by little.
Not long after, it disappeared behind a row of bookshelves.
"call……"
Donna watched the old man leave until he was out of sight, then she let out a long breath.
For some reason, she felt a little better, less anxious, and able to think about her current situation more rationally.
"Princess Candice is obviously unhappy, but it's not irreparable... I can go and apologize to her. As long as my attitude is sincere enough, she shouldn't make it too difficult for me..."
She pulled her hands out from under the table, pressed her arms on the surface, raised her head slightly, and stared thoughtfully at the glass-inlaid hollow ceiling.
"And Xiaoyao... who is she? She is definitely not an ordinary handyman, otherwise how could she live in a place like that? And she has some amazing supernatural powers, and she's not afraid of Princess Candice at all..."
After thinking for a few minutes, she seemed to have made a decision and suddenly stood up.
He closed the exercise book without even reading a word, tucked it under his arm and walked towards the back of the bookshelf.
"No, I have to go find her and ask her what's going on..."
Putting the exercise book back in its place, she turned around and quickened her pace, walking towards the back door of the library, preparing to go to the back hill of the grove to see if Qi Ji was still in that strange and magnificent tree house.
But she had just taken a few steps when she suddenly felt a chill on her spine and goose bumps all over her body.
At this moment, like an antelope being stared at by a lion on the grassland, she instinctively felt extreme fear and a sense of crisis.
There's someone behind me!
He has bad intentions!
I'm in danger!
These thoughts popped up in her mind instantly, without any reason or evidence, but she just believed it!
She subconsciously tensed her body and turned back suddenly:
“Yes, who is…!”
She wanted to put on a stern tone to question the malicious guy behind her in order to show her strength.
But just as she turned her eyes behind her and saw the things behind her, the voice suddenly stopped.
It was like falling into an ice cave. The blood in her body froze and her head started buzzing.
Less than five meters behind him, between two rows of bookshelves, an indescribable and terrifying figure was lurking.
The body was roughly recognizable as a human, with a swollen, unclean flesh-colored surface and hands and feet.
But the part that should have been the head and neck became extremely thin and long, like kneaded dough, deformed and twisted.
He...or rather, its limbs were disproportionately long, almost two or three times its body length, and its entire body was in a prone position.
The four limbs, which were so strange that they could not be called "limbs", were bent at an angle that absolutely violated the human body structure, with the palms and soles of the feet at the ends supporting the ground.
It is not the palms that come into contact with the ground, but the backs of the hands and feet.
At first glance, it looks like a four-legged spider.
This devil-like creature appeared less than ten steps behind him at some point, blocking the way between two rows of bookshelves.
The thin, deformed, hairless head was raised at an extremely twisted angle, and a pair of swollen, red eyeballs were full of bloodshot.
His cloudy and dirty pupils stared at Donna without focus, and the moment she turned her head, his eyes met his.
“Ah…Ah…!!!”
Suddenly, she lost all her ability to think. In her chaotic mind, only one thought remained, howling and wailing heartbreakingly:
"run!"
=========================
It’s Monday, please like it!
Chapter 251: First "Mission" (Part )
Donna's mind exploded in an instant. This blasphemous monster that did not even appear in nightmares was completely beyond her tolerance.
With the warning in her mind, she didn't even look at the monster a few more times to confirm whether it was an illusion.
Just inject all the strength of your body into your legs and rush forward!
"Snap! Snap! Snap! ..."
As she took a step forward, a series of rapid, soft knocking sounds suddenly came from behind her.
It's the footsteps of that monster!
It was chasing after me like a spider, with its limbs that were so twisted that they couldn't even be called limbs!
“Ah, ah…ah…”
Donna's inner fear had never been so overwhelming as it was now, and she ran for her life.
There was no other thought in my mind except to stay away from that devilish, deformed monster.
When a person's fear accumulates to a certain level, he will no longer focus his energy and attention on screaming and calling for help.
"Ha! --ha! --ha! . . . . "
So, Donna didn't scream, and made no sound except her footsteps as she ran for her life and her breathing as heavy as a bellows.
run!
Must run!
You must not stop!
Listening to the strange footsteps getting closer and closer behind her, she ran to the end of the bookshelf aisle at the fastest speed in her life.
Then he turned suddenly and turned into a corner.
