If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon.

At night, the full moon hung on the top of the bell tower, and the night covered the white dove with black feathers.

Kassel College fell into a deep sleep, but the atmosphere gradually reached a fever pitch in a certain place. This place was not a physical place, but a virtual forum.

'Nightwatch Forum' is the official forum of Kassel College. It is the most frequently used forum built by students. Many senior interns and graduated students rely on this forum for their only contact with the school. , so in addition to students, many professors and teachers have also registered accounts and actively post and interact on the forum.

The night watchman forum was very active tonight, and many familiar faces started to speak enthusiastically - it is always like this in the new semester. Students have endless complaints about topics, such as the pig knuckle hair in the cafeteria that is not blanched, and the sauerkraut as a side dish. It smells sour or something.

One post after another in the discussion area was pushed up, but was immediately pushed down by a more popular post, but suddenly a red eye-catching post slowly floated up, and finally it was pinned to the top. Usually this kind of Red posts represent bounty posts, but at certain times, moderators with permission can also mark their posts red and make them more refined.

"Shocking! A-level freshmen may become the first S-level students today? Emperor Gattuso's popularity is about to be lost?"

The discussion forum was refreshed at a high speed, and the pinned red post reached more than 100 floors in less than ten seconds. A large number of users accessed the interface, and the high-speed data transfer caused the server to freeze. When it was refreshed again, the last message had reached the 300th floor. .

"Who posted the message? Where did the news come from?"

"Only the administrators of the forum can mark posts red and refined. I recognize the ID of this post. It's Fingel's account."

"Fingel? He hasn't graduated yet?"

"No, no, no, you are not single, how can I be willing to graduate? My senior brother loves you like the sea!" Fingel, wearing the administrator's logo, left a message. The webpage of the entire post was once again stuck, and the comments instantly reached the 500th floor. Fingel, who had repeated grade two years, has always been a popular figure in the forum - at worst, he is a master of rhythm. His posts always bring attention to the topic. An evil trend arose.

"Fingel, you can eat free pork knuckles and mashed potatoes at the beginning of the semester, but you can't talk nonsense. Where did the new students come from during the semester?" Someone left a message to express doubts.

"Why does the title include first-year Caesar Gattuso? Are you afraid that the post will be lost even if you have administrator rights? Haha."

‘You have been banned for twelve hours due to inappropriate remarks [inappropriate vocabulary, language attacking moderators and administrators]. ’

"You guys have some moral integrity. Although I, Fingel, have been a bit embarrassed in recent years, I have been the Minister of the Ministry of Information for six consecutive years. Our Ministry of Information never does such things as fake news! The new students are transfer students. It is said that I was originally a sophomore in high school in China this year, but I was specially recruited by the principal to join the school because of my excellent bloodline and the initial signs of awakening. It is expected that I will sit in with the first grade in the next semester and officially enter the first grade next year." Fingel explained in a message. .

The post got stuck for a while, and when it was refreshed again, it had reached the 1,000th floor. The total number of students in the four grades of Kassel College was nearly a thousand. Excluding the fourth grade students who mostly went out for internships, there were about seven to eight hundred students on campus. It's evening now, and it's obvious that nine out of ten students in the college have flooded this post.

"Don't believe it, I have already found another post about the new student's personal information. This is the link." Fingel spoke again and opened a new post, copy-pasting and uploading a large document that had been prepared.

In the Night Watch forum, the post recording Lin Nian's personal information instantly climbed to the second place. The entire Kassel College students quietly watched the first half of this 16-year-old boy from China.

"It's a bit sad to say this." Someone finished scanning this resume evaluation that made people cry.

"But I'm working hard. Is it true that it says that freshmen have to move bricks in their spare time?"

"How did the college discover such a hidden student?"

"I heard that China has been conducting a census in recent years. Could it be that someone from the college has infiltrated the census team?"

"Excellent academic performance, good at track and field, e-sports, and kendo. Hey, 100 meters in 10.50 seconds? Are you sure this is just a 16-year-old Chinese boy?"

"How's it going? Do you believe what I say now?" Fingel left another message on the main post.

"There are many people in the school who can run 10.50 seconds for 100 meters, and even girls are not in the minority. Why do you say he has 'S' level potential? You know the principal is only 'S' level." A third-grade student questioned .

"I knew someone was going to ask that, but the person who said he had 'S' level potential was not me, but his mentor, Professor Manstein from the Discipline Committee! I was lucky enough to hear this shocking news from the corner, and replied I informed the whole school as soon as I arrived at the dormitory." Fingal left a message.

"His tutor is Professor Manstein? I happen to know someone who can tell the truth from your news @Please don't fail the class. Please don't fail the class."

After a while, the post "Please don't fail the class, please don't fail the class" appeared on the post: "What's going on? Fingel, you want to die. Are you afraid that my tutor will kill you if you do this?"

"This is one of the students taught by Professor Manstein. You can ask her if the news about Lin Nian is true." Fingel immediately threw the blame to Mandy who was blown up.

Mandy, who was in the girls' dormitory, was holding her notebook in a frenzy. Private messages on the forum were bombarded with the word 99 in red within a few dozen seconds. Even her roommates in the dormitory stuck their heads out to ask her about the authenticity of the content of the post.

"It's true! It's true! I am a student of Professor Manstein, and I also have a 16-year-old junior brother from China. Stop messaging me privately! My mailbox is going to explode!" Mandy left a message in the post: "Finger Just wait, if I don’t beat you to death tomorrow, I will take your last name!”

"Norma has the final say on the pedigree rating, but the 3E exam for freshmen has passed. If the freshman's pedigree rating is to be put into the database and loaded into the file, doesn't it mean that he has to wait until next year to take the exam with the next class?" Someone who is familiar with the admission process the student asked.

"By then, the popularity of the post will have passed, and maybe Caesar will become the president of the student union." Some people still can't get over Fingel's idea of ​​using Caesar as a gimmick.

"No, the college will arrange a separate 3E exam for freshmen in two days. What Professor Manstein asserted is that with this exam, this new student will be able to reach the 'S' level!" Fingel said, "How about we start a test? A bet? Just bet on whether he can pass the 3E exam and raise his level to 'S' level!"

"Fingel, are you crazy? Didn't I tell you that if you helped me pick up Lin Nian, the money you owed me would be written off?" Mandy sent a private message to Fingel backstage, but Fingel didn't care about her. After that, the number of comments on the post exploded again.

His wolfish ambition was finally exposed, but within half a minute a new betting option appeared on the first floor of the post.

The two betting options "YES_or_NO" are particularly simple.

"I'm off to a good start. Of course, 'S' class is an exaggeration. I wasn't even in school when I graduated from the last 'S' class, but maybe I'll catch a live 'S' class before I graduate." ? I bet 100, and I can advance to the 'S' level if I beat the freshmen!" Fingel left a message to encourage everyone to actively bet. People who are familiar with him are not surprised. This guy always never forgets the opportunity to make money.

"Why do you have to make excuses for everything Fingel? Do you have no money to eat?" someone laughed.

In the college, Fengel opened many bets in the forum as an administrator, including long-term and short-term bets. There was a short bet on the odd and even numbers of this year's 'A' grade students on the eve of the 3E exam. Count, the long plate is still hanging in the diving area of ​​the forum. I remember the most recent one was a bet on whether Caesar Gattuso could become the president of the student union before his third grade. Fingel bet on it for 100 yuan.

Fingel can always make a lot of money by opening the market. Some people say that this is the last survival skill of a loser. If Kassel College has a course called "Gambling Science", he will definitely be able to make a lot of money every year. With full credits, you won’t have to worry about grades like now to graduate.

But Fingel's current behavior is still really hard to understand. The promotion of the 'A' level bloodline to the 'S' level is an unprecedented feat. Why would this loser who still owes thousands of dollars on his credit card be so confident? Betting the last money in your trouser pocket on 'YES' that seems to be illusory to everyone?

"Senior Brother Fingel? What are you doing?" Someone asked, but it was not on the Night Watch forum.

In the activity room in Area 1 of the student dormitory, Fingel, who was standing in front of the sofa with great arrogance and scolding Fang Qiu, was suddenly shocked and closed the notebook in front of him with a snap. A dozen students around him were also startled. He closed his notebook and looked up at the speaker.

Lin Nian stood at the door of the activity room and looked at Fingel inexplicably. Beside him, Professor Manstein looked at everyone expressionlessly. Every student he glanced at broke into a cold sweat.

Professor Manstein is the director of the Ethics Committee, whose responsibility is to rectify bad school ethics.

"Ah, junior brother, are you back so early? I thought you were going to take a physical test." Fingel stood up when he saw Manstein trembling with an awkward yet polite smile.

"I feel a little unwell. Instructor Manstein said that the dormitory assigned to me by Norma is 303, Area 1. Senior brother, do you know where it is?" Lin Nian said.

"Of course I do. Is there anything I don't know about in this school? Do you want me to help you carry your luggage, senior brother?" Fingel approached him with reserved warmth, while gesturing fiercely behind him to signal the losers to be smarter.

"The luggage has been brought up. Just show Lin Nian acquainted with the dormitory." Manstein glanced at Fingel coldly. The disciplinary committee member's keenness told him that this guy had done nothing good before they came, but there was nothing he could do. Without any evidence, we can only give up.

"By the way, this is for you. This is your student ID card." Manstein handed Lin Nian an envelope: "Ask Fingel if you don't understand anything. His tutor is acquainted with me, so don't worry. cautious."

"Thank you, mentor." Lin Nian thanked him after taking the envelope.

"Let's go, junior brother, I'll take you to the dormitory to put your things." Fingel hugged Lin Nian, who was carrying the luggage, and walked to the exit of the activity room. As he walked, he turned his head and mouthed: "Closing the plate—— Close the plate—close the plate—!”

As early as in the afternoon, the younger brothers received the news of preparations from the group text message on their mobile phones. Now they are only one step away from closing the market. After receiving the news from the boss, they watched the news without saying a word. Manstein on the side watched the two people leave before he left the activity room with confidence, leaving a dozen people looking at each other in confusion for a few seconds before violently opening their laptops to check the bet status.

If there is no difference, the bets on 'NO' and 'YES' should be polarized, so that Fingel can use his $100 to achieve a miracle-provided that 'YES' can really win.

The current amount of the 'NO' bet is more than 10,000 US dollars, which is in line with their predictions, while the 'YES' bet on the other side is also more than 10,000 US dollars?

"How is that possible?" one of the horse boys exclaimed, because this betting data means that those who believe Lin Nian has the potential to become an 'S' class are evenly divided between those who don't believe it!

There is indeed a precedent for promotion in the 3E exam. Or can it be said that the 3E exam is the real pedigree rating. Norma ultimately adjusts the student grade based on the level of the answerer, but is the 'A' grade promoted to the 'S' grade? Even Caesar Gattuso, who was in the spotlight, could not do it. Why do so many people think that this little-known grade-skip student can do it?

Could it be that when they were attacked by the disciplinary committee just now, someone quietly broke some explosive news on the forum and dug up the freshman's ulterior past? But what kind of shocking news can reverse the bet to such an extent? It can't be that this freshman killed a dragon when he was a minor, right?

"No, wait, use Fingel's administrator ID to check the betting information on 'YES'!" Someone suddenly said as if something came to his mind.

Someone opened Fingel's notebook and entered the backstage. The people around him gathered around and gasped after seeing the list of punters, because they found that there were only three punters on the 'YES' side.

Except that Fingel used his own account to invest the initial 100 yuan jackpot, the forum account ID for the second bet was called 'Biyuntian', which was a very unfamiliar ID. The amount of the bet was 500 US dollars, neither too big nor too small. It seemed that he wanted to Win some sumptuous late-night snacks with foie gras and lemon juice.

But the biggest focus of this handicap is actually the third account. This guy actually bet $10,000 in one go! This means that he alone has evened the odds of the entire handicap!

The students in the activity room are all familiar with the ID of this account. Last semester, almost no one in the entire college was unfamiliar with this ID - "Dick Tuduo".

Caesar Gattuso bet $10,000 at 18:32 that Lin Nian could advance to the 'S' level by taking the 3E exam, and left a message:

"I'm looking forward to the performance of the new student. If he can really become the first 'S' class student I meet during my time at school, then I will extend an olive branch to him from the student union."

"It seems that the shark has been caught." Someone in the activity room whispered.

"Closed! Hurry up! With Caesar's appeal, the market will definitely be one-sided!" someone exclaimed.

But before a few people could return to the computer, the betting account 'YES' in the background was refreshed again, and new IDs appeared one after another.

“Don’t fail, don’t fail,” bet $100 ‘YES’.

"Guderian (Professor)" bets $200 on 'YES'.

"Gerd Rudolf Manstein (Professor)" bets $1,000 on 'YES'.

They all surpassed Lin Nian in being able to advance to the 'S' level.

Everyone gasped, and for a moment, the market began to tilt towards the incredible side of 'YES'.
