Chapter 31

According to the weather forecast, a wave of warm air from the distant Pacific Ocean will travel all the way and will soon land in the motherland.The warm front with a little heat will become the last trace of temperature before winter.

But at this moment in Haishan City, there is a hot current that is no less than that of the warm Pacific Ocean front. The three major colleges and universities are holding emergency meetings in full swing. The selection questions for the Quidditch written test are too unexpected , Judging from the uproar from each school at the end of the exam, the three major colleges and universities are currently facing a difficult difficulty in selecting candidates.

The columnar sunlight shines into the meeting room through the window, highlighting the expressions of the senior members of No. [-] High School who are about to get out of water. The meeting room is full of people, but at the moment it looks unusually quiet, and there seems to be some substantive signs floating in the air. The dignifiedness is like the combat command during the Anti-Japanese War when the small army faced a crazy counterattack.

The heat in the water in the teacup has long since disappeared, and most of the tea leaves that have been soaked have settled to the bottom of the cup, leaving only some light foam floating tenaciously on the surface of the water. There are no ripples caused by the wind, but ripples caused by the shaking of the table from time to time.

After a long and silent silence, the principal raised his head. Two deep wrinkles stretched from the bridge of his nose to the corners of his mouth. He turned his head to look at the school assistant next to him. His voice was deep and mellow, covering the entire silent venue, "Our school This time, how many people can be on board?"

The answer to him was also silent, only the school assistant said tremblingly: "The test paper has not been corrected yet, and we will not have a specific number until it is corrected."

"Nonsense, I'm asking about the number of people on the line, and whether each head teacher has a number in mind, three classes a year, seven classes a year, four classes two years, five classes two years, one class three years and four classes three years, how about it? Can you give me a specific number of people?" The six classes that the principal pointed out are all the key classes of Haishan Sangao, with strong strength and a lot of top talents in them. Any one of them is placed in other ordinary classes, and they are all in the top few Therefore, these six classes are also the classes that have always provoked the teaching backbone of the three high schools.

Among these six classes, the class every three years is the head, and the head teacher Xie Yi, who has nearly 30 years of teaching experience, is an excellent teacher in the country, and he is also the leader of the few national excellent teachers in the third high school. .

At this moment, Xie Yi, with a calm expression on his face, is indeed worthy of being the head teacher of Haishan High School, and he can calmly accept any changes, "I don't want to explain any more, I just want to tell you a helpless result. There may only be five outstanding students in the class who can pass this written test."

There was an uproar.

The strongest class in No. [-] High School and the second-ranked class in the city. In the past, there were at least fifteen Quidditch students in the class, but only five students were left to participate in the Quidditch competition. mean something! ?

The head teachers of the remaining key classes saw that Xie Yi took the lead in reporting their worries, so of course they reported the number of people they estimated in their hearts without any scruples. Those "two" and "one" made people feel frightened , making the entire conference room as cold as the inside of a fluorine-free refrigerator, six key classes representing the highest strength of Haishan High School, the cumulative number of participants was less than 20!

Old man Mi wiped the sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, Wang Zi was transferred from his class. Otherwise, no one would be selected. He knew Wang Zi's origin and studied in England for several years when he was very young. Well, the bible is their amateur reading, so there should be no problem with this exam, and then looking at the whole class, maybe no one will be selected again.

"In this way, our number of people this time is not enough to get 52 people. This has never happened before." The principal is also an old man who is about to mature, and he is quite calm. Compared with Xie Yi's city, it is not inferior .So even though his heart is shaking now, his face still has the aura of being in charge of the overall situation.

The school assistant next to the "principal" tentatively said, "Even if we can't select enough people in this selection, I believe the same is true for the other two universities. Even if we can only get half of the usual number of 32 people to participate, other The two schools are not like this, maybe they are not as high as the number of people we can select!"

"Yes, yes" the crowd around echoed.

"Maybe they can't even take out 25 people!" The third class teacher next to Old Mi said jokingly.

"To say that there are 25 people is an overestimation of them, maybe they can't even make up 15 people!" A strange voice came from nowhere, which caused the crowd to burst into laughter.

If the Quidditch pre-match selection fails to select enough people, then the remaining places will mean giving up. One less person on the football field will weaken the strength of the team, not to mention that there are so many fewer people, simply announce It would be better for your school to abstain from all the votes. It is impossible to elect enough people. This is something that has never happened in the history of Haishan City, and it is also something that all high-level schools have avoided. But it seems that this time it is inevitable up.

Fortunately, this time, it was not Haisan Sansan High that suffered the disaster, but the other two schools were also affected, and suffered from the same situation. Therefore, even if the number of participants in the Quidditch competition decreased, it was a general reduction. From this In a sense, everyone is still at the same level of competition.

The headmaster smacked his lips and waved to the people below, "Teachers, go down and do a good job of mobilizing and getting ready for the upcoming Quidditch competition. Difficulties stand in front of us. The important thing is how to overcome them! That's all for today." Break up the meeting!"

Li Sansi was walking on the stone floor of the Central Garden, which was covered with broken leaves. Some teenagers and girls on bicycles hurried past, leaving behind the clear sound of the wheels rolling over the broken leaves, and the park benches were sparsely occupied. Some people, far and near, drag out long shadows, like notes standing under the setting sun, singing a long song wandering in another space at dusk.

Many, many years ago, this small town, which seemed to be unaffected by what happened outside, also left behind these scenes. Did the emotions that happened but disappeared just like this change into another form, erratic? Floating in the air, people have an illusion of deja vu. Maybe the self in the last reincarnation once laughed here, made trouble here, was happy here, and sad here.

Haishan City is still quiet. Through the dense but not compact hazel trees, you can see all kinds of exquisite shops on the main road.The vehicles passing by on the road, the insects crawling quietly by the edge of the grass, the girl sitting behind the boy's bicycle with a sweet expression, and the figure dangling back and forth on the swing in the distance all make this small town seem to be covered with a layer of Pale yellow brilliance, filled with the taste of happiness.
