Chapter 108 Come Be My Student
Half an hour later, Harold tore off a page of notes and handed it to Dishia.
"Well, does what I said help you solve your doubts?" Harold asked.
Dixia took the note and stacked it with the previous one she received, saying, "I roughly understand what I originally wanted to ask, but now I have something new that I don't understand."
You have a talent for becoming a scholar, Miss Mercenary. I have to put more effort into you and make you take the initiative to join my research team, Harold thought.
"Learning knowledge is like this. When you find a piece of the puzzle, you can't help but want to find more to complete the whole picture." Harold handed Dixia a brand new feather pen. "I think you will use this often in the future."
"Wait, what you just did violated the rules of the House of Religious Orders, right?!" Dixia didn't move. She only reacted when she heard the word "learning knowledge".
Harold was spreading knowledge without permission, and the target was a desert person like her. Even if he did this to complete his research, he would be in big trouble if the truth came to light.
"It seems so. It will be troublesome if we are discovered. Why don't you, Miss Dixia, become my student? As long as you enter the Ordinary Court, all these things can be written off." Harold said.
"Ah?!" Dixia's brain froze. She had never thought that accepting a commission would get her into the Ministry of Education.
"Just kidding, it's okay. Look, I'm not nervous at all." Haroldt stuffed the quill into Dixia's hand and said mysteriously, "I have some connections in the Church Order. As long as I don't do anything too extreme, no one will bother me."
After all, I have a long-standing friendship with Hazard's old friend, Harold added silently in his heart.
Then, without waiting for Dishia to respond, he continued, "Do you need me to provide you with a place to stay, Miss Dishia?"
"No need. I plan to go for a stroll around the residential area you mentioned." When talking about the itinerary after get off work, Dixia's eyes instantly lit up. Every time she went to a place, she liked to find a commercial street to play and shop. This time the work did not make her injured all over. She only needed to pack up simply and then she could go out to play.
"Oh, by the way, you should be more careful. I always feel that you will get yourself into trouble." Recalling Harold's frivolous attitude when he talked about the laws of the Ordinance, Dixia was very worried about the future of her employer.
Harold smiled and shook his head. "If you want to stay somewhere else, I'll lend you my pack animal. You'd better leave early and don't come back to me before the next experiment starts. I'll return to Xumi City after I finish organizing today's experimental records."
"It's already past two in the morning. Doesn't it take at least three hours to get from here to Xumi City..." Dixia muttered softly.
"I can't help it. I'm waiting for a letter from the Ministry of Education regarding the review of my new project. The results of the academy's approval will be sent to my residence in Xumi City. That is something that I absolutely cannot lose. Besides, I have to follow up on other projects.
In order to keep an appointment today, I did not do the project promotion with my senior. At this time, the senior should have finished reading the feedback collected today. As one of the project participants, I also have to read those documents as soon as possible. Fortunately, I am not tired now. "
"It seems that your schedule is even more packed than mine. Is the life of a scholar so busy?" Dixia was very curious.
"Most of them are like this. What's even more hurtful is the psychological pressure, so some scholars don't have much hair left before they are 30."
Harold said as he walked out of the research institute with Dishia. As soon as they left the room where the element concentration exceeded the standard and stood under the vast starry sky, Dishia couldn't help but narrowed her eyes and stretched lazily.
Harold crushed the two fences of the pack animal pen into dust, then led a pack animal towards Dishia and handed her the reins.
His two beasts of burden were completely tamed and friendly to him and other humans.
Harold taught Dishia some of the hand gestures he often used to command pack animals: "It takes five hours to walk from here to the residential area, but it only takes about an hour and a half to ride a pack animal. It knows the way, and you can trust it."
Dixia caressed the beast's forehead affectionately, omitted the polite words of refusal, thanked Harold, and rode away on the beast.
After Dixia left, Harold immediately began to organize today's experimental data. After filling two pages of notes, he took a boat back to Xumi City.
It was almost six in the morning when they got home, and Elhaisen, who had a regular life, and Kavi, who was used to staying up late, were not awake yet.
Since his plan to inquire about the feedback from last night's promotion had failed, Harold simply went back to his room, set an alarm for three hours, and prepared to catch up on some sleep.
