New Gods of North America

When Wayne quietly climbed through the first-floor window and sneaked back to the dormitory,

The dormitory has passed the "lock-door" time.

The college's management of students was relatively lax, so as long as you weren't caught when the college arranged people to check the dormitories, you'd be considered to have escaped.

The lights were still on in Wayne's dorm, but Seth Grayson had left.

I ran to the desk and looked through it.

ah?

How come this guy wrote all my homework?

Seth Grayson even imitated Wayne's handwriting. Although every letter and number was written almost exactly the same, the overall look was a little bit outrageous, but it was indeed not "problematic".

He also left a note with his address in the college.

It's just that his math doesn't seem to be very good. He's a senior, but he probably didn't pay much attention in class like Wayne.

In the math homework left by Professor Albert Maisel, there is a question: "Judge whether 'continuous functions must be differentiable' is correct, and try to give an example to illustrate it."

Seth Grayson just wrote "yes" carelessly and then wrote a lot of other things.

Wrong! Continuity is not necessarily differentiable!

This conclusion, just like "the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side", is clearly written in modern society's textbooks. It is basic common sense in the learning stage, and even students who fail a course know it.

Then Wayne rewrote this part. The examples were also very simple. He just copied two classic examples from the textbook that he remembered.

All done! Go to sleep!

…

Depending on the course schedule, students' schedules usually change at least once every six months, that is, when winter and summer change.

So the next day, a new week began, and the same routine began to repeat itself.

First I studied the Holy Scriptures, then I was confused in math class with my classmates, and finally I learned the art of language and logical thinking in the American History class.

Currently, homework is basically due every Monday and should be brought along to the corresponding courses.

Wayne was a little distracted from studying today, and was thinking about meeting Seth Grayson after class.

I intend to find out the details of the payment he received from Cohen Pharmaceuticals and how he came to suspect Reverend Pycelle at that time.

You can go back and read the "Bible" and the "History of America".

As for math class...the exam requirements for students in non-related majors are not high these days. As long as you read more books and can't do calculation problems, you can pass.

On the contrary, it seems more troublesome to deal with Pastor Pycelle.

It is not clear whether he is targeting the detective agency or anyone who meets the requirements.

Fortunately, Seth Grayson is also very sensible.

He may have looked at Wayne's class schedule in advance. When Wayne finished his afternoon class, he was already waiting outside the classroom, which saved Wayne time.

"What plans do you have for your future?"

The two walked on the campus, and Wayne started talking while leading Seth Grayson towards the landmark buildings of the college.

Of course, you can't just say "I want to deal with the pastor in the college church, at least I have to get some leverage over him" or something like that.

For a reliable start, Wayne thinks it’s better to paint a big picture first.

Seth Grayson also told the truth:

“I majored in grammar and law, and I once thought about taking the bar exam, but it seems that the fallen are not allowed to engage in such a profession.

"So if I can join your detective agency, I will try my best to adapt to your requirements, but I may only be able to complete some clerical work at the beginning. At least in terms of shooting, I think it will be difficult for me to reach your level, Mr. Wayne."

Wayne shook his head slightly, "We are a detective agency, not a so-called violent agency. In this sense, our job is to assist law enforcement agencies in solving cases and maintaining public order. Combat capabilities are only a small part of it."

When the two arrived, the detective agency's van was waiting there.

Wayne saw that the person coming over was Willy, and he was a little curious, "Didn't you go out with Lina? You're back so soon?"

Willy opened the carriage door for the two men like a dedicated coachman and answered:

"We have been out for almost four days. Miss Lina felt annoyed by Simon Sherman's constant visits, so she deliberately looked for opportunities to go out and avoid him."

"Has that man been caught?"

"Of course, they are just a few local hooligans. The main reason is that no one is chasing them after they cross the border. But it is not difficult to track them, at least not in the wilderness. Miss Lina even spent an extra day on the road."

When we arrived at the detective agency, everyone was waiting to have dinner together.

Wayne brought Seth Grayson to the table and everyone started eating together.

As expected, the dishes cooked by the chef are delicious. Even the mashed potatoes that look similar to the original are not filled with lumps and only salt like those in the college cafeteria.

Perhaps because the "Arena" was open, the agents' commonly used extraordinary abilities had basically been made public.

After learning that Seth Grayson is considered a new member of the detective agency, the detectives begin to act "unruly" again.

Someone was casting a breeze - this was originally used to disturb or prevent wild animals from smelling the scent when hunting in the wild.

Someone was splitting the steaming grilled ribs in the large baking pan into smaller, more convenient portions. Willy's ability had found a new use. At least he didn't have to worry about getting burned or being unhygienic, and it didn't require much strength.

Someone was too lazy to reach out for a pepper shaker, so the big spider jumped over, picked up the grinding bottle and ran away - well, it seems that Peter has always been used by Lina like this...

That is, Emma did not perform a U-turn on the spot,

Otherwise, Seth Grayson would probably be even more shocked.

After dinner, Seth Grayson followed the three partners into the office, and the topic began to turn to the main plot.

Wayne also poured a glass of whiskey for the other party:

"You should now have a general understanding of our detective agency. Although we are still in the early stages, we are still bound by rules, but we will do our best to maintain our freedom and prospects.

“The bishop does not want to see anyone disrupting the peace of the diocese, so we will not take any illegal measures against any clergy of the church, even Reverend Pycelle - we will only take action against those who are hiding organizations.

"It's easy to join or leave the detective agency, but we don't forgive betrayal. You still have the chance to leave now."

Don't be in a hurry, eat your meal one bite at a time.

The pastors of the church and the employees of normal companies are definitely not wanted criminals, so there is naturally no reward, and even conviction is a problem.

It is definitely not an option to just overturn the table, as it is a difficult and thankless task to deal with.

Seth Grayson lowered his head and shook his glass slightly.

Then he drank the "finger-deep" whiskey in the glass and said, "What should I do?"

"For someone who is outside the church and the extraordinary organizations, you seem to be well aware of the situation of the 'fallen' in Virginia. This is actually quite unusual."

Wayne held out the bottle and refilled his glass:

"I'm curious, how many people in the college parish are in a similar situation as you?"
