The class monitor was quite bold. She pressed her ear directly against the thick wooden door and whispered, "The principal seems to be arguing with someone? Or debating something?"
"Let's wait."
"Mm."
The two sat on the bench outside the door and did not wait long.
Click! The lock opened.
A familiar figure emerged from the office.
That thin body, one that could barely support a formal suit, was probably unique in the entire school. He had completely given up physical training and devoted himself to books.
"Teacher Guo."
The class monitor and Luo Di rose at the same time and called out his name.
Teacher Guo adjusted his glasses, trying to see their faces more clearly. "Oh, students from Class Five... Wu Wen and Luo Di. I graded your papers. You got 95 and 86 points, respectively.
"The scores aren't the highest, but I can tell you had your own 'understanding' rather than giving rigid answers. Maintaining independent thought is a good thing. Keep it up."
"Thank you, Teacher Guo," the class monitor said. Luo Di merely nodded slightly.
Teacher Guo waved a hand and took the elevator down from the floor.
The two immediately headed for the office and knocked on the wooden door. The moment the principal saw the two energetic students, his expression changed at once, and he proactively came forward to shake their hands.
The reason he had called them over was simple.
As a high school student, Luo Di had actually displayed a "Corner-transforming item" during the examination and was even proficient in using it.
The school had promptly investigated Luo Di's records and discovered that the two of them had assisted investigators in handling an "Anomaly Event" during winter break. They had even received high praise from the Investigation Bureau in their files.
