If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 375

In the small town of Carmel, at 08:30 in the morning, the sun hangs on the branches of the fir tree, like a peeled fruit, and the sunlight is just right.

At the main entrance of Carmel University, sprinklers spin flowers on the wide lawn in the sun, shining a faint rainbow. Cars and mountain bikes drive by the side of the road on the street, and those who come down from above are carrying schoolbags Young men and women who came to morning classes.

Not far away, a large group of people gathered in front of the large open space in front of the university entrance, bustling with students in trendy clothes, boys wearing red peaked caps and rock-and-roll styles gathered in front of the artificial fountain, stepping on the loudest sound. The radio was playing the emotional 'Rip Her To Shreds' and the air was full of sunshine and youth.

A lit textbook was thrown on the lawn, and a few boys gathered around to watch the excitement and cheered, and the black security guard in front of the ivy red wall at the main entrance of the university in the distance suddenly blew his whistle and pulled out his waist. The batons in the middle pointed at them and rushed towards them, and everyone dispersed amidst the noisy boos.

The rugby tossed by the boys crossed the blue sky and drew a beautiful arc in front of the arched gate of Carmel University. Under the blue sky, Carmel University occupies a small area and is adjacent to each other by 300 meters. Next door is Winston University, the two universities are connected together and barely make this area in the northwest of the town known as the university town, and it is the hottest gathering place for young people.

It is full of all the new things that should be in this era, rock, rap, fraternity, drugs, illegal small movies, everything that can be associated with young people's words can be found here.

In the university area surrounded by tall red walls, huge buildings such as teaching buildings, gardening areas, libraries, and gymnasiums stand out against the blue sky. There are everything a normal university should have here, and the facilities and buildings have been renovated in recent years. Compared with Winston University next door, which is famous for its long history, Carmel University is obviously more vigorous, which naturally makes its tuition fees more expensive.

It is well known in small towns that most of the students who can afford to study at Carmel University have a much better family background than Winston University. Many people would rather spend the money of a new Porsche as a sponsorship for the school. , and I don’t want to wrong my children to go to Winston University, which doesn’t even have an independent swimming pool, so Carmel University has a lot of rich people.

A loud horn sounded on the side of the street, and several male students hugging each other and fighting on the street were driven away to the side of the road and lay on the lawn, and then a brand new red Porsche 911 slowly drove up to the gate of the university On the side of the road, the boys squatting on the lawn turned their heads and saw the bright red paint and car logos in the sun, and couldn't help whistling loudly.

Even though there are many rich people in Carmel University, those who can drive a Porsche to class while they are students are still the focus of everyone's eyes. Not to mention that the owner of the car is still a figure in the focus.

After the red Porsche came to a complete stop, the door was opened, and Mandy got out of the driver's seat with a yawn. He threw the schoolbag in his hand on the roof of the car, and lifted the heel of the white sneakers on his right hand. He raised his head and took a breath of the fresh air under the sun, then opened his eyes and looked at the sight focused in front of the university gate.

Mandy’s dress is still very eye-catching today, with a baseball cap binding her brilliant blond hair, with a little make-up on her face, the color of her face is brighter than a sunny day, and a string of silver necklaces hangs in front of a black hooded sweater , The pure black wide-leg pants under the feet have a bit of hip-hop style.

The voices of whistling and booing became louder. Although Mandy Gonzalez is only a freshman, she is already considered the eye of a popular typhoon at Carmel University. If you want to surprise the audience with a Porsche, everyone will remember you. After all, this is the small town of Carmel, not a big city like New York or Los Angeles.

As soon as Mandy got out of the car, two girls the same age as her ran over from the side of the road, stretched out their hands to help her carry the schoolbag, bent over and gently lowered their heads and surrounded her with smiles, "It's so early today? Miss Mandy."

"Garcia, Minerva, good morning." Mandy didn't refuse the two of them to help carry the bags, any courteousness was a conspiracy, she knew very well that the two girls were squatting at the school gate early in the morning to guard their status. For what, but without losing enthusiasm to chat and socialize with them.

"Sister Mandy, this is yesterday's homework for history class. I wrote two copies." Minerva with short brown hair carried her schoolbag behind her back, reached into the schoolbag in front of her, took out a notebook and handed it over.

"Thank you so much, but don't worry so much next time, I think homework is part of college life." Mandy took the history homework with a smile and locked the car door.

"Where is it, we are already very happy if we can help Sister Mandy with something." Minerva saw Mandy took the notebook, her face flushed with excitement.

Garcia on the side was not to be outdone and said, "Sister Mandy, I heard that the fraternity in the school is planning to hold a party in the suburban villa tonight, and they will send out invitations in private. Only those who receive the invitation can participate. I know A friend in my fraternity can help me get a few invites, see if you're interested"

"Let's see, I've been going to bed very early recently, and I probably don't have time to attend parties or anything like that, and to be honest, I don't like those people at fraternity parties." Mandy touched the brim of her hat and smiled lightly. Then he threw the key to Garcia, who cleverly took it and put it in Mandy's bag.

"Is there anything new recently?" Mandy casually asked the two girls on the road between the lawns. Many of the students gathered at the gate of the university greeted her proactively, and she waved her hands in response.

"The president of the fraternity quarreled with a man while drinking at the bar last night, and then got into a fight in the bar. The fight was so hard that he almost lost his face." Garcia thought for a while and said.

"Who won in the end?"

"No one wins. I heard that both sides are miserable." Garcia hesitated and said, "That man hit hard. In the words of the fraternity president, it was like killing him. Tonight the fraternity president He just came out of the hospital, and the party is to celebrate his discharge."

"That means you lost?" Mandy raised her eyebrows, thinking about the appearance of the president of the fraternity, a burly Aryan, the main force of the rugby school team, who can carry three girls on his back and do push-ups. How could a big man lose to others in a fight?It's really hard to imagine, "How tall is the opponent? Is it 1.9 meters?"

"Abnormal height." Garcia shook his head, "But the attack was very ruthless. If it wasn't for the people on the side to stop him, he would probably have stabbed the president of the fraternity."

"A knife was used?" Mandy frowned.

"The smashed beer bottle, that guy is crazy. I don't know what the two of them were talking about outside the bar to make this happen." Minerva on the side added in a low voice.

"It's good that people are fine." Mandy shook her head, "Should the police intervene?"

"The guy who started the attack was arrested, and it is estimated that he will be temporarily locked up for ten days and a half months. If he appeals, he may be sentenced further." Garcia said.

"It's still the same sentence, as long as nothing happens, but it seems that I can probably be idle for a long time." Mandy smiled.

Minerva and Garcia glanced at each other. It's not a secret that the president of the brotherhood is pursuing Mandy. Maybe they really shouldn't tell Mandy about it. It's hard to say that a burly man was thrown into the hospital by any ordinary person on the side of the road when he grew up.

"Is there anything else interesting?" After walking into the university, Mandy went straight to the teaching building, and Minerva and Garcia trotted behind her.

"A dozen or so transfer students came to the school at once, and they seemed to be from the city."

"Transfer to another school at this time? More than a dozen at once?" Mandy climbed up the stairs and trotted into the teaching building.

"There are two or three in our department, maybe we will have class together today? I heard that there is a very handsome boy in it!" Garcia said with staring eyes.

"Whatever." Mandy pulled the hat on her head and combed her hair, "As long as you don't pester me."

"I'm afraid it's difficult. Miss Mandy will be surrounded by boys wherever she goes, right?" Minerva said naturally.

In this regard, Mandy just smiled and shook her head without speaking.

After going up the stairs, the three of them rushed to the history classroom. After opening the door, the classroom was almost full of people. The girls gathered around and chatted about small topics. Chewing gum and chatting.

At the front of the classroom, two fashionable and beautiful girls saw Mandy walk in, their eyes lit up and they waved their hands immediately.

"Let's talk after class, let's go first." Mandy took the bag from Garcia and said goodbye to them.

Minerva and Garcia tactfully did not follow Mandy after seeing Mandy leave. They just looked at the three with envy. If Carmel University had something similar to a sorority besides a fraternity, then The circle of people headed by Mandy is probably the core of the sisterhood.

The two of them did not hesitate to get up early in the morning. Mandy just wanted to make eye contact, so that he could join this circle in the future. After all, college is all about circles and interpersonal relationships. Once they are isolated for the entire four years of college, they will have to live alone. .

"Morning, Lily, Amara." Mandy sat in the reserved seat and greeted her two good sisters.

"Mandy, there are new transfer students coming today, and there are three in our department, two men and one woman." Amara, who is also blond like Mandy, said enthusiastically as soon as she arrived.

"Don't be so excited, it's just a transfer student, haven't you seen enough of the movie?" Mandy put her schoolbag on the table, took out her homework and books and shook her head with a smile.

"I heard that there is a noble son from Italy among the transfer students! His family is in business, and he is very rich! If I can hook him up, I will have no worries for the next four years of college." Amara teased The blond hair looked at Mandy with piercing eyes, "Don't rob me when the time comes! You are the most threatening to me in school!"

"I don't think so." Mandy rolled her eyes, "But the transfer student is Italian? Where did you hear the news, is it accurate? Why do you come to our small town to study in college when your family is so rich? An Ivy League school?"

"I don't know, but the news is true. There seem to be a lot of foreigners in the transfer students this time." Lily with short black hair also followed up the topic, "Not only Italians, but also Chinese, Koreans and Japanese. I don't think so. It looks like a transfer student, but a foreign tourist group visited our university."

"True or false." Mandy couldn't help laughing, "Don't make false news again."

Amala and Lily were about to say something when the door of the classroom was suddenly opened, and the tall and stern teacher in a black windbreaker walked in from the door, and the boy with his legs up on the table twitched his feet in an instant, almost falling over on his back Going down is enough to see the terror of the teacher in everyone's mind.

Many people stared at the textbooks for the first time and dared not look at them, but Amala and Lily, who were beside Mandy, looked at the door of the classroom and their eyes lit up without saying anything. , kept bumping his shoulders into Mandy, motioning her to look over.

Mandy also looked back with a sense of feeling. Outside the classroom door, behind the teacher in charge, three strange young students actually walked in, and the configuration happened to be two men and one woman as mentioned before!
One has blond hair, one has black hair, and one has red hair. They are wearing the dark green school uniform issued by Carmel College. Just from the appearance alone, the three of them will be particularly eye-catching whenever they stop on the street.

Under the gaze of all the students, the three students with strange faces stood on the edge of the podium one after another.The teacher in charge took out a black pointer from his waist and smashed it on the blackboard. He waited until the classroom was so quiet that he could hear the needle dropping, then turned his head to look at the three people around him, and said flatly, "Three new students School students, let me introduce myself, these people in the classroom will be your classmates in the next four years, make friends, work hard and make progress together."

The black-haired boy who was the head of the three nodded first, went to the podium, picked up a piece of chalk, turned around and wrote his name on the blackboard, but not many people could understand what he wrote, because What was left on the blackboard was not English, but three square-like figures.

And it just so happened that Mandy just understood these three words, quietly read the boy's name, and raised his eyebrows inexplicably feeling a little familiar.

After finishing writing, the boy put down the chalk and turned back, glanced at everyone in the classroom, nodded and said, "Freshman, Chu Zihang, I am very happy to be a classmate with you."

Standard American spoken, without much accent, which undoubtedly added a little more to his stern appearance. After all, no one likes to be friends with a dumb person who does not understand the language, let alone develop a romantic relationship.After the boy named Chu Zihang introduced himself as concisely as his face, many girls in the classroom applauded, but a few boys in the back row made a booing sound.

Mandy was also in the row of applause, and the two good girlfriends beside her were about to clap their hands, and it seemed that this foreign boy liked them both very much.

The second girl who introduced herself on the stage was a girl with long dark red hair. The boys in the classroom all sat up straight as soon as she came to the stage. Their keen beauty radar told them that this girl basically reached an 'A' in all grades. In addition to the unsatisfactory figure, the natural long dark red hair and temperament points completely covered up this deficiency.

The red-haired girl also wrote her name on the podium, which is also three squares. With the example of the black-haired boy before, everyone knows that this girl is also Chinese, and those three words are naturally hers. name.

"Chen Motong, Chinese." The red-haired girl's self-introduction was shorter than that of the black-haired boy. After she finished speaking, she casually walked aside to play with her mobile phone, ignoring the warm applause from the boys in the audience.

The last transfer student, who is also the most anticipated student, has sunny blonde hair and a muscular figure. He walked to the podium in two steps and did not take the chalk from the teacher. Instead, he stood in front of the podium with his hands on the table and leaned forward .

When he was leaning forward, he seemed to be suppressed by an aura. Many boys leaned back to avoid their sight, while the girls held their breath, as if being splashed by the sound of summer waves. The general body is comfortable after being hit.

After scanning all the people, the blond boy read out a small sentence softly in twisted Italian. The tone was low and magnetic, with a different sense of conquest. When everyone was puzzled, he revealed A contagious smile, with ocean-clear eyes reflecting everyone's face and saying:

"Cesar Gattuso, my hometown is Portofino, a small town as beautiful as here. I prefer people to call me by my mother tongue than my English name, just like I demonstrated just now, if If someone can memorize the pronunciation of my name in Italian, then it means that she cares about me, and then we will probably become very good friends in the future."

There was a commotion in the classroom, and the field control was perfect. Many girls were infected by the summer-like atmosphere, and couldn't help covering their mouths to suppress their screams.The boys were speechless and felt the strong oppressive force. Everyone looked at each other with serious eyes. Class enemies!The strong sense of magnetism emitted by this golden-haired Italian man has already given them a sense of imminent crisis!
"By the way, this classmate, I like your hair very much. We seem to have similar hair color." After introducing himself, the blond boy glanced down and sat in the front row, turning his pen and looking sideways. His Mandy smiled.

One sentence attracted the concentration of all eyes, and Mandy, who tilted her head, looked at this blond man full of Italian style and just smiled, without any excessive expression.

"Then the self-introduction is over now, go down and find a place to sit, and the class will start in 3 minutes." Turning around and cleaning the blackboard, the teacher shook the chalk dust on the windbreaker.

Mandy turned the pen, and three transfer students walked past her. She raised her head as if aware of it, and inexplicably found that the eyes of the three people all fell on her when they passed by her, with some inexplicable words in them. unknown meaning.

Lily bumped her shoulder to Mandy who couldn't help but turn her head to look over, and whispered, "Which one are you looking at?"

"No. It's just that they suddenly feel like" Mandy turned her head back, hesitated for a while and finally shook her head, "It's okay, it might just be my illusion."
