Chapter 9 Excess Self-Awareness
Jiang Chanji was very annoyed, but fortunately, he didn't have to worry about being stopped by the landlady for the time being.

The administrator's room has windows in the corridor but no doors. With the size of the landlady, it is impossible to jump out of the windows.

The landlord’s aunt is actually not that old, maybe in her 30s, at most 40 years old, with big arms and round waist, eyes like copper bells, and a face full of flesh. I heard that she was also a flower nearby when she was young, and later she might eat fried rice with lard and eggs Too much, seriously fattened, and became what it is today.

She is not married and seems to be single forever.

This apartment building was left to her by her deceased father. Although it is not very valuable in the suburbs, it is already very rich in front of the poor tenants.

She tore off the apron around her waist, pointed at him through the window with her thick round fingers, and shouted, "Jiang Chanji! Where are you going sneakily? Let me ask you, what are your arrears of rent, late fees, and utility bills? When can I hand it in?"

Being poor and short-sighted, Jiang Chanji has already had a conditioned reflex to the landlord's aunt's roar, and he is always reluctant to lift his head in front of her, but today he straightened his chest and said loudly: "30 years in Hedong, [-]... ...Oops!"

He was only half installed when a slipper flew out of the window and almost stuck to his face!
"Stop beeping blindly in front of my mother!" The landlady's voice increased by another [-]%, "I ask you, where are you going?"

She looked Jiang Chanji up and down, the light in the corridor was dim, she could see that Jiang Chanji's appearance was quite different from his previous slovenly appearance, even if he was completely new, at least it was eye-catching, which couldn't help It made her wonder what this kid really wanted to do, was he poor and crazy and finally gave up on himself?
"I... I'm going for a job interview."

Jiang Chanji knew that the chance of getting into Hongye College by chance was very slim, and it was a women's college after all, so it should not be publicized, so it could only be vague.

He used to be slovenly, and he didn't comb his hair very much, because this would reduce the chance of being recognized by creditors on the street. After he groomed himself just now, the perception of others must be very different.

"It's very important?" The landlady said with disbelief on her face, "I warn you, if you dare to fool around in places like the Cowherd's Bar, I will break your chicken leg!"

In this remote apartment building, she has seen too many tenants who have gone astray because of poverty. Adults have to be responsible for their own lives. It is their freedom to choose which path to choose, but Jiang Chanji, a half-grown child, was the one who softened her heart and let him live in without any money or any documents, so she felt that she had to bear some responsibility for him.

However, with Jiang Chanji's current body, even going to the Cowboy's Bar is impossible, and he will probably be regarded as a monster to watch...

He prevaricated a few words, and then hurried out of the apartment door, so angry that the landlady's aunt was fuming.

"Damn it! When you come back, if you don't make it clear, I'll take your skin!" said the landlady angrily.

"Huh..." She poked her head out of the window and sniffed, and said to herself doubtfully, "Why does it smell like Kung Pao Chicken..."

Jiang Chanji didn't have money to take a car, so if he borrowed money from the landlady, even if she was willing to borrow it, she would have to ask him where he was going in detail, so he could only walk to Hongye College.

The Red Leaf Academy was a long walk away from here, so he had to hurry up, because today was the last day, and the registration and examination had to be completed today.

He knew that the hope of successfully enrolling in school was extremely slim—whether his current body could pass the medical examination, and whether his strange power could pass the test, he was not at all sure.

He has had strange powers since he was a child, but neither he nor his parents regarded this strange power as the same ability as female supernatural beings. One is because the concept that superhumans can only be women is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the other is because from ancient times to the present, Ordinary people with strange powers are not particularly rare, such as Xiang Yu who is as powerful as a mountain, King Wu of Qin who pretends to be dead, etc. It cannot be said that Xiang Yu and King Wu of Qin are both women disguised as men, right?
The strange power has never brought him any benefits, but caused a lot of trouble, but now he can only silently pray that his strange power will be stronger.

Along the way, occasionally passers-by looked sideways at him.

"Is it exposed?"

"Do people think I'm weird?"

Jiang Chanji lowered his head, trying to walk faster, but due to hunger, he couldn't walk very fast.

In fact, this is purely his excess self-awareness. People look at him just out of curiosity, because he is dressed in neutral clothes. When seeing him at first glance, it is difficult to tell whether he is a man with slightly longer hair and a handsome face.

Some passers-by guessed that he was a man because he was tall and flat-chested, while others guessed that he was a woman because he was headed towards Hongye Women's College.

Everyone knows that it is the recruiting season of Hongye College, and the locals are of course the ones who are close to the water.

In fact, there are quite a few young girls who go to Hongye College to sign up for the exam. Today has passed the peak period of registration and exams, and a few days ago, there will be a sea of ​​people with red flags waving.

Candidates walking to Hongye College like him are definitely very rare. As long as the other girls' families are not so poor that they can't tell the truth, at least today they will let their children take a taxi to school. On the one hand, it is a matter of face, the self-esteem of young girls is very sensitive.

Rare, but not unique.

As he was walking, he suddenly... felt a slight throbbing in his stomach for no reason.

At first he thought it was because he was hungry, and his stomach was protesting again, but after careful consideration, it seemed that it was not, because it was not the stomach that was wriggling, but... a position further down, not the stomach anyway.

He was wondering, and then he noticed a girl with a short stature and a frail figure walking unhurriedly not far in front of her.

Hey?Was this girl there just now?Why does it feel like it came out of nowhere...

Forget it, maybe he was dizzy and distracted from hunger before.

She was wearing the school uniform of a nearby junior high school, with her hair trimmed to her ears, her hair was black and shiny, and her neck was very thin.

The strange thing is that most people look forward when they walk. Even to take care of the obstacles and potholes on the ground, they still look at the ground at an angle of at least 45 degrees. This girl... she almost turned her head Hanging at 90 degrees, as if looking down at your feet as you walk forward.

Jiang Chanji was tall and long-legged, and soon caught up with her from behind.

When passing by her side, he noticed that her face was quite small, and her skin looked like that kind of fair skin that didn't see much sunlight. Her bangs were very long, hanging down on her forehead and almost covering her eyes.

Her eyes were empty and her face was expressionless, giving the impression that she was a robot without emotion, just carrying out the fixed procedure of going to Hongye Academy.

"Hey! If you walk slowly like this, you will be late!"

When passing her, Jiang Chanji kindly reminded him.

Although there are a lot of people applying for Hongye College, one less person will count as one. Maybe one of them may crowd out your quota, so other people will not mind their own business, and maybe expect her to go slower. It's best to sign up.

Jiang Chanji already knew that his hopes were extremely slim, so he was very calm and did not have a sense of competition with other candidates.
