Durin's Diary

Chapter 147 Deep in My Mind

Mentor Mason and Mrs. Salin both returned with great success. Although Mentor Czerny understood that Durin was busy, he still stopped Durin from continuing to develop new works.

"Now, go and practice properly. No one else can help you."

Of course, Du Lin couldn't go against his mentor, so he could only start learning music.

Alyssa was able to assist Dulin very well in music. After giving Dulin answers three times, Anta became curious and asked Alyssa, "Alyssa, why don't you sign up? I think you are very talented too."

"I learned music from my mother, and she was Mr. Czerny's apprentice. How could I have the nerve to take her place?" Alyssa gave a perfect answer, which made Du Lin very satisfied.

Anta nodded. She was also very satisfied with the answer, but she still offered her opinion: "But I still think it's a good thing that you can study with Du Lin."

“Really?” Alyssa was a little surprised, but seemed more surprised.

"Really." After saying that, Anta pulled Alyssa aside.

Elaine followed out of curiosity. The three little girls were whispering something not far away.

Du Lin looked at the textbook in his hand and was curious about what they were talking about. Although he wanted to use magic to eavesdrop, considering that he was facing Anta, if she found out, Du Lin felt that he would definitely be pinched.

Forget it, Du Lin, men should be responsible for the fat on their waists.

After a while, Anta said that she would take Alyssa to register for the exam, and Elaine led the way, so the three girls ran away.

Du Lin was holding the basic book with a confused look on his face - Wait, don’t just leave like that, wait for me.

………………

When Du Lin and the girls arrived at the examination area, Professor Czerny was invigilating. Seeing Du Lin appear in his sight, carrying a book and following the girls, the old man smiled and waved at Du Lin: "Drop everything you are doing. What are you doing here?"

"Alyssa also wants to sign up for the class." Du Lin walked in front of him.

“Alyssa, ah, Alyssa, come here, child.”

After listening to Du Lin's explanation, Professor Czerny looked at Alyssa, who was signing her name in the registration book.

Hearing her mentor's call, she walked quickly to him.

"I remember that your mother has been frail and sickly since she was a child. How is she in good health now?" Professor Czerny asked with a smile.

"Mother is fine, sir." Alyssa stood next to Du Lin with a well-behaved look on her face.

"That's good. You have learned from your mother, so you should understand my strictness, right?" Professor Czerny's expression changed and he became serious.

"Well, I know, but Mr. Du Lin has become your apprentice, so I want to try it too."

"Okay, I'll add a table for you in the next batch of tests. If you fail, I will tell your mother to punish you severely. Even if tomorrow is your birthday, I will not let your mother let you off easily." Professor Czerny's expression was extremely serious when he said this.

Alyssa also nodded seriously: “I know.”

"That's good. Go wait aside." Just as Professor Czerny finished his instructions, a teacher came in and said, "Mr. Czerny, the auditorium has started to take seats. You asked me to remind you."

"Ah, of course, thank you, young man." After saying this, Professor Czerny sent the man away. Then he looked at Du Lin and said, "The test here will take some time. Du Lin, you can take your girls and accompany me to the auditorium. There are quite a lot of people here today." Huh? What do you mean?

Du Lin brought the girls and followed Professor Czerny obediently.

However, when he heard that Alyssa's birthday was tomorrow, Du Lin thought about it and realized that it was too late to find a gift now. After thinking it over, he could only give his pocket watch as a gift to Alyssa.

The little deer girl took the pocket watch hesitantly, her face full of doubt: "Can you really give this to me?"

"Just take the gift from Dulin." Anta said with a smile.

So Alyssa happily took the pocket watch and put it in her arms, feeling extremely happy.

Having breasts is really something, Alyssa!

Du Lin watched his pocket watch disappear into the ravine and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Along the way, various people whom Du Lin did not know at all, but the girl behind him was someone he knew, greeted Professor Czerny.

For example, Anta knew several old men and women dressed as mages, all of whom were at least half-step legends. Every time, she introduced Durin to them, starting with "my ally" and ending with "my lover", without getting tired of it.

These old men were not polite either. They either called themselves old or called Du Lin "little brother". Each of them seemed to be an old friend of Ixu, and everyone liked to stroke Du Lin's head.

Alyssa knew quite a few guys with double chins, all from Savoy. Most of them were sponsors of the art academy. Having heard about Dulin's story, they came to see how the Duke's grandson had won over the various art academy instructors, including Mr. Czerny. It sounded like they had nothing in common, but these fat, middle-aged men weren't exactly good people. They greeted Dulin in Savoy, and Dulin could only reply in his half-familiar Savoy.

As for Elaine, she knew quite a few local nobles, including the young man with gray eyes. When he appeared in a formal dress, Elaine immediately raised her skirt and saluted him: "Your Highness Locke, why are you here too?"

"Cousin Elaine, I've heard Father talk about the so-called short films that Du Lin made. I'm curious, isn't that right? I'd also like to see what interesting stories Father has created from the future movie magician he mentioned." The young Highness Locke Bulma Walter said this, smiling as he reached out and stroked Du Lin's head. "You've been here for less than a month, and you've already changed a lot of people's prejudices about movies. Well done."

Being small is a real disadvantage. I'm almost bald from being rubbed by these guys.

Du Lin sighed inwardly while trying to smile at the old man in front of him.

It's really unbearable.

After finally entering the auditorium, before he could find an empty seat with Professor Czerny, Du Lin was called behind the stage by the principal.

"There are too many people here today. My old friend Robert is really a big talker. He tells everything he sees. So my good boy, can you go on stage and give a speech and talk to them about your understanding of the movie?" The principal asked in an almost pleading tone.

When Du Lin followed him, he indeed noticed quite a few unfamiliar faces he had never seen in the academy. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "No problem. However, Mr. Principal, when I go on stage, I plan to use the synchronized projector. Could you please lower the curtain and dim the lights?"

"You are going to do it on the spot!" The principal widened his eyes and looked at Du Lin as if he were a monster.

"I have a good assistant, my ally, you may have forgotten." Du Lin said this and took the angiography device from the staff beside him.

Then he walked towards the front desk step by step.

"Where are your lines?" The principal's frightened question came from behind.

"It's there, in my mind," Du Lin said, almost singing.
