The comments said I was deeply affectionate, I just added points by using an alternate account.

The next day.

The morning sunlight shone on the marble gate of Huaqing College, giving the red banner with gold lettering a glossy edge.

A row of folding tables was arranged along the tree-lined path, and Chen Guan chose the most secluded corner to sit down.

He untied the black coffin from his back, and the heavy metal bottom slammed onto the bluestone slab with a muffled thud, causing a tiny crack to appear in the ground.

Chen Guan glanced innocently at the ground. The location looked so familiar. It seemed that he had smashed this poor floorboard right here on this day last year.

The only difference is that Li Yuqing and Huo Qixing are no longer sitting here, but his newly promoted senior, Chen.

The chattering freshmen around them seemed to have been silenced, and they all moved across the street, none of them willing to approach this strange senior carrying a weapon.

Chen Guan looked completely innocent; he couldn't be blamed for this.

Fortunately, he was happy to have some peace and quiet, leaning against the cold coffin and closing his eyes to rest.

The leopard crouched beside him, its purple tail sweeping across the fallen leaves on the ground.

Long Ao squeezed through the crowd carrying two large briefcases, his forehead covered in fine sweat. He slammed the briefcases down, making the ground tremble again.

"You sure know how to avoid taking it easy. Hurry up and come help move these things."

Chen Guan opened one eye and said lazily, "This is to train you pillars of the new era."

Long Ao gritted his teeth: "Are you that old?"

If you slack off while you're still sick, Long Ao won't mind, but it's unacceptable to slack off after you've recovered.

An Changqing walked over with the roster and pushed a registration form in front of Chen Guan: "Chen Guan, Teacher Situ has assigned a task. This is the form you are responsible for filling out."

Chen Guan sat up straight, staring at the pile of white paper that was almost a small mountain, utterly dejected: "Can I refuse?"

An Changqing smiled gently, handing over a pen, his smile concealing a knife: "Professor Situ said he refuses to deduct credits."

He muttered to himself, "I should have just stayed home."

Su Yuehe chuckled: "Who told you to be Teacher Situ's favorite? You're the first person he thinks of when he's trying to exploit labor."

"This isn't being popular, this is unpaid overtime, it's shameful."

After Long Ao finished moving the last box of brochures, he plopped down on the empty chair next to him and grabbed a form to fan himself.

An Changqing handed him a bottle of water, and Long Ao thanked him and quickly finished the bottle.

"I'm hungry."

The leopard at his feet nudged his calves with its head, its purple tail sweeping weakly across the ground.

Chen Guan searched his pockets and only managed to pull out a small demon core, which he handed over. He realized that this leopard's appetite was getting bigger and bigger.

With a flick of its tongue, the leopard devoured the substance, its purple eyes still brimming with hunger.

"That's all, today's budget is over."

Chen Guan opened his empty hands, and Su Yuehe pulled out another handful of demon cores, giving the leopard an extra treat.

Leopard ate happily and frolicked around Su Yuehe, displaying a ruthless and greedy nature.

Just then, a figure walked through the bustling crowd, ignoring the aura that made people around him want to avoid him, and headed straight for this isolated area.

He was a thin boy with black-rimmed glasses, and he walked with a swaying gait.

He stopped precisely in front of the coffin's table.

"Hello, senior."

The boy spoke, his voice refined and clear, but his gaze went straight past the coffin and was fixed on the black coffin leaning against him.

Chen Guan tapped the table with the end of his pen and nodded to the side with his chin.

"The registration form is over there, take it yourself."

"I'm not here to register."

The boy shook his head, adjusted his thick glasses, and kept his gaze fixed on the black coffin.

"Senior, may I touch it?"

This question stunned everyone.

Before Chen Guan could react, Long Ao exploded first. He stood up abruptly, the chair legs scraping against the ground with a piercing noise, and looked down at the boy who was half a head shorter than him: "Looking for trouble?"

The boy seemed oblivious to Long Ao's oppressive aura, stubbornly staring at Chen Guan and repeating the same thing over and over.

"Is it okay, senior?"

Chen Guan looked at the other person; thick glasses covered his eyes, but they couldn't hide the focus that was almost overflowing.

"Can't."

He refused decisively.

"Sorry, senior, I was being presumptuous. Let me introduce myself. My name is Shan Heng." The boy who called himself Shan Heng waved his hand, and all sorts of demon cores appeared on the table, and they all looked to be of good quality.

"I noticed your pet didn't seem to be full, so this is a small apology gift. Please accept it."

"No need, it's just a small matter, there's no need to go to such lengths."

Chen Guan refused to accept it. He felt that this person was strange and he would not accept such a strange gift.

"Please accept this." The boy's glasses reflected the sunlight, obscuring his eyes, but revealing an almost pathological obsession.

"Are you hard of hearing?"

Long Ao took a step forward, and the bluestone slab under his feet groaned under the weight. Clearly, the floor had been hit again. He cracked his knuckles, which made a crisp sound.

"My friend said that you shouldn't accept it, and you shouldn't touch it carelessly either."

An Changqing reached out and pressed Long Ao's shoulder, signaling him to calm down. He looked at the thin boy and gently advised, "Classmate, these are my friend's personal belongings, it's not convenient."

"You're a new student here to register, right? Shall I take you to your dorm?"

An Changqing offered a way out, but unfortunately, Shan Heng was clearly not going to appreciate An Changqing's good intentions. He still looked at Chen Guan with that persistent and terrifying gaze.

Chen Guan frowned slightly. The child in front of him was able to attend Huaqing University, so he was obviously not intellectually disabled. Chen Guan could tell that Shan Heng's strength was probably at the fourth level.

Compared to them, they are nothing, but among this year's freshmen, they are definitely not weak, and they are probably capable of entering the Tian Shu Class.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

He tried to soften his tone and asked, mimicking An Changqing's manner, "May I ask why you're so persistent?"

Chen Guan wouldn't miss anything that might be related to coffins.

"Senior, even if I tell you the truth now, you won't believe me." Shan Heng shook his head, his face pale. "Senior, I was impulsive today. I'm very sorry!"

Having said that, Shan Heng, who had been so persistent just moments before, ran off in a flash, completely different from his previous demeanor, as if the question Chen Guan had just asked was something terrifying.

"wack."

Long Ao, who was indignant on behalf of Chen Guan, looked at Shan Heng's back and uttered this sentence after a long while.

"Shan Heng... I'll have someone investigate him later."

This was Su Yuehe's voice. She also found this new student strange, so Su Yuehe decided to use the box weapon directly.
