Cannon fodder dressed as a disabled marshal

Shen Qiran looked carefully for a long time before he could confirm that this was indeed the cutie he knew.

The last time we met was at the palace banquet, and it was only five days ago, why did the cutie gain a lot of weight?

This is not right.

"Did your master take you for a checkup?" Shen Qiran worried, "Is there something wrong with your body?"

"Meow!" The cat that was squatting docilely by the window seemed a little angry. It jumped off the window sill, jumped up and down the room a few times, and then jumped back in front of Shen Qiran. Its round cat eyes stared at him. A sense of resentment.

...This is to say that its body is fine?

Shen Qiran took a closer look, the reason why the little black cat gained a lot of weight was not because of its size, but... because its fur was fluffier and softer than before?

The little cutie was originally fit and vigorous, but now it looks like a chubby fluffy ball, which looks soft and round, extraordinarily cute, and also extraordinarily... makes people want to touch it.

Shen Qiran's heart was eager to move, and he couldn't take his eyes off the little black cat, but he didn't know that at the same time, the little black cat was also staring at him without blinking.

The young man just came out of the bathroom, with a faint fragrance of shower gel on his body, and the blinking eyelashes were stained with water vapor, like the crystal dew condensed on the grass leaves in the morning.The bathrobe on her body was loosely tied with a belt, exposing a large area of ​​delicate skin on her chest.

"Can I touch you?" Shen Qiran asked softly.

The cat turned its head away, and its tail kept swinging behind it, as if it was restless, but it didn't run away.

What does it mean?Shen Qiran was a little confused.

Did you not understand your own words?Or say no?Or... shy and embarrassed?

Although he really wanted to pat it regardless, Shen Qiran knew that this tsundere kitten had a bad temper, and he managed to get better with it. If he strove forcibly, would it arouse his disgust?What if it gets angry and never comes to find itself again?

Shen Qiran stretched out his hand and retracted it, retracted it and stretched it out again, engaging in a battle between man and nature between emotion and reason.

After waiting for a long time without any movement, the little black cat couldn't help but take a look at Shen Qiran, and found that he was holding his hands up and didn't dare to move.

Cat: "..."

... How can there be such a cowardly person, didn't he dare to say it when he was licking cats in front of the video cloud just now!

It was difficult to beg, Maomao sighed, the little black cat was speechless for a while, and for a moment, the tail behind it rolled flexibly, and the fluffy tail gently hooked the young man's white wrist.

Shen Qiran was startled, but the little black cat had already turned its head away, as if everything had nothing to do with it, but its tail was still wrapped around Shen Qiran's wrist, and it would gently sweep it from time to time, like a soft feather flirting with apex.

Shen Qiran's heart was soft in an instant, and his hand lightly landed on the kitten's body, and gently stroked along the soft fur.

ah!So comfortable, that's how it feels!

"Little cutie, why are you so good at masturbating." Shen Qiran sighed.

Cat: "..."

Why does this sound weird.

Feeling the gentle caress of that hand, the cat's tense body completely relaxed. Because it was so comfortable, it couldn't help but squint its eyes and purr.The night wind blows the vegetation outside the window, Shen Qiran subconsciously looks out, and finds that the moonlight tonight is unexpectedly gentle and beautiful.

At the same time, in the master bedroom a few rooms away, a black-haired man in a wheelchair was quietly watching the bright moon in the night sky by the window.

The lights in the house were not turned on, and the gentle moonlight shone in. Everything in the room seemed to be soaked in water and swayed gently.The man's hand rested casually on the armrest of the wheelchair, and his fingertips slid gently, as if he was caressing something according to a specific rhythm.

"It's just a cat..." He pursed his lips uncomfortably, and whispered to himself.

"What a fool."

He spoke cold words, but if the moonlight could illuminate the man's face at this time, anyone would find it difficult for him to restrain the slightly raised corners of his mouth and the thin layer of red on the tips of his ears.

The moon is bright and clear, and the night is just right.

***

Two days later, Shao Xing left the capital and went to several galaxies under the empire to inspect the border defense.In the afternoon of the next day, Shen Qiran finally received the news of the exam that he had been longing for - he successfully passed the written exam and could participate in the interview.

The interview time is one week later, and the location is in a teaching building of Moria College.That day, Shen Qiran arrived at the interview location on time, and when he was about to go upstairs, someone suddenly patted his shoulder.

"Hi, see you again!"

Shen Qiran turned her head with a surprised expression.

"Oh it's you."

Standing in front of him was the kind-hearted person who took him to the examination room that day. The orange-haired boy smiled heartily and held out his hand to him.

"I left in such a hurry that day that I forgot to ask your name. My name is Ou Rui. Are you also here for the interview?"

Shen Qiran had a good impression of this boy, and shook hands with him graciously.

"Hi, my name is Shen Qiran."

"Wow, what a good name." Ou Rui said with a smile, "You have the same name as Marshal's wife."

Shen Qiran: "..."

The two are both candidates of the professional music department, and they both entered the interview process, so they naturally went together.They came to the third floor of the interview, where many waiting students had already gathered.There is a suspended LCD panel in the center of the hall on the third floor. It is said that after the interview starts, the names of the students entering the interview room will appear on the panel.

Next to the publicity panel is a projection screen, on which a live video of the Fengshuai Ceremony is being played.Shao Xing is an outstanding graduate of Moria College. Now that he is in the position of commander, Moria College is naturally honored. These days, wherever there is a screen in the college, the video of the ceremony of appointment as commander is played repeatedly.

Most of the people who apply for Moria College are young people with passion for military service. Even though they have seen it many times, when Shao Xing's figure appeared on the screen, the students in the hall spontaneously quieted down and stared at him with piercing eyes. looking at the screen.When His Majesty the King personally put on the Marshal Medal for Shao Xing, and solemnly said, "The future of the empire is in your hands," the students applauded involuntarily.

Ou Rui, who had never stopped talking along the way, was also very quiet at this time, and he spoke slowly after the awarding ceremony was over.

"Marshal Shao Xing is the pride of our empire."

Shen Qiran nodded in agreement: "Yes."

"This ceremony will go down in the history books."

Shen Qiran continued to nod: "Yeah."

"So the cameraman should really be fired."

Shen Qiran: "Um...huh??"

Ou Rui's words actually attracted the echo of many people, and several girls sitting next to him joined the conversation excitedly.

"That's right, how did the cameraman choose the angle!"

"It's so shameless!"

"I thought the recorded version would have more content than the live broadcast, but it didn't."

"That's right," Ou Rui said angrily, "Why don't you show Madam Marshal!"

Shen Qiran: "..."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an enthusiastic response immediately, and more people came over, and the scene was filled with a kind of fiery friendship among the melon-eating crowd.

"After reading a lot of gossip posts, I'm so curious about Mrs. Marshal!"

"The man who can stand beside the Marshal must be a very ruthless character."

"It's not ruthless, she should be a super beauty as gentle as water!"

"Damn it, I said before that the marshal's wife will be photographed during the marshal ceremony, which made me wait for so long, liar!"

"Don't complain, maybe Shao Shuai didn't want his wife to be watched, so he deliberately didn't let the broadcast camera focus on his wife?"

"Oh, the marshal is so narrow-minded, but what's the matter with being a little cute hahaha..."

A group of people discussed in full swing, Shen Qiran's expression was about to crack, he quietly shrank back, and covered his face with his collar.

For the first time, he came up with the idea that the first priority after earning money is not to run away, but to delete these gossip posts on the Internet.

...Big brothers and sisters, please leave a way for the children to survive!

This heated gossip discussion ended with the start of the interview bell.The blank panel in the center of the hall suddenly changed, and the list of the first batch of interview students and room numbers appeared one after another. The crowd in the hall immediately became commotion, and the students whose names were called went to their respective interview rooms.

Shen Qiran and Ou Rui were not listed here, but they also followed the flow of people to the interview room of the corresponding major, waiting patiently.

The interviewers came in and out several times. When Shen Qiran looked around boredly, he saw four or five people coming up the stairs on the other side of the hall.

The leader was a hale and hearty old man with gray hair, and his portrait was hung on the wall of the hall—he was the current dean of Moria College, and many students immediately got up and saluted when they saw him.Shen Qiran's eyes fell on the other person who was walking with the dean in surprise.It was a handsome red-haired man with elegant demeanor and a polite smile on the corner of his mouth, which didn't reach his eyes, making him look polite and indifferent.

Viscount Kenzie?How did he come here?

These people were obviously just passing by, and continued to walk upstairs without stopping.But when he passed the corner of the stairs, Kenze seemed to have a sudden feeling and glanced this way.

Shen Qiran reflexively hid behind Ou Rui for a while, barely avoiding the other party's gaze.

"What's the matter, Monsieur Viscount?" asked the Abbot.

Kenze glanced around the hall: "Who are these students?"

"There is a second round of entrance exams today, and these are all students waiting for interviews."

"Oh." Kenze nodded slightly and said nothing.

Shen Qiran sat up straight when the group disappeared on the stairs.It's not that he's afraid that others will know about his interview, but Kenze is Esther's confidant, and Shen Qiran and Esther are torn apart, so naturally he doesn't want to have any contact with Kenze.

At this time, the previous batch of interviewees came out one after another, and the content on the announcement panel was quickly updated several times. Shen Qiran saw that his name was on the list.

"Come on!" Ou Rui made a cheering gesture to Shen Qiran, "Let's take the exam well and be classmates together!"

"Okay." Shen Qiran smiled.

***

The interview was in a music classroom. Two examiners were sitting behind the podium. One was a middle-aged woman with a serious face, and the other was very young. He looked like a teaching assistant. He flipped through the documents in his hand and saw The name column couldn't help but pause for a moment, and glanced at Shen Qiran.

"Is that Shen Qiran's classmate?"

Shen Qiran sat at a table opposite the podium, nodded stiffly: "Yes."

After the young examiner checked the candidates' identities and confirmed that they were correct, they began to ask questions.Strictly speaking, the Department of Professional Music is just an affiliated major of Moria College. Compared with other direct majors, the entry threshold is not so high. Although the content of the examiner's questions is more difficult than the written test, it is not too exaggerated. Shen Qiran is well prepared It was easy to deal with, and the answers were fluent.

The young examiner nodded in satisfaction. Although the female examiner next to him did not speak, her eyes softened a lot.After the two finished scoring on the score sheet, a blue display screen was projected in front of Shen Qiran, with a button in the center of the display screen.

"Please take your practice questions." The female examiner said.

Shen Qiran pressed the button as he said, the screen flickered, and a golden icon appeared.

"Play an instrument." The female examiner also received real-time feedback, "Did you bring your own instrument?"

"Do you provide pianos here?" Shen Qiran asked.

The male examiner nodded and pointed to a small door on the right side of the classroom: "You go in there, there is also an examiner inside, she will guide and supervise you."

"Ok."

Shen Qiran stood up to thank her, and walked towards that door.

As soon as Shen Qiran's figure disappeared behind the door, the polite young examiner sitting on the podium let out a sigh of relief, and said to the people around him in a chatty tone.

"This is actually not bad. People who come to the professional music department are not completely bastards."

"But it's still incomparable to students from the music department." The female examiner shook her head.

"That's true. After all, talented people go to the music department, and those who come here are just to get a professional qualification certificate..." The male examiner sighed listlessly, "When will we be transferred back to the music department? I still want to teach the children over there..."

While talking, he flicked his smartphone boredly, when he suddenly yelled "Wow".

"The freshmen in the music department this year are so fierce!" He stared at the screen with a look of amazement, "The practice evaluation over there gave a score of 86 in the comprehensive evaluation of performance. This is actually a freshman??"

The female examiner also looked very surprised. She turned on her smart phone and looked at the news that flashed by in the college group.

"So it's the young master of Constantine's family..." The female examiner was thoughtful, "There's nothing strange about what he said."

"I'm afraid the music department is going to be crazy." Although he is not currently teaching in the music department, the male examiner is still proud and smiling, "We have been hanging by the Ambers Conservatory of Music for the past few years. Hit, this time finally came someone with a long face!"

***

Shen Qiran took a seat in front of the piano, and sitting opposite him was a young female examiner.

Compared with the two examiners outside, this female examiner was obviously more lively and easy-going. She smiled and pointed to the score on the piano.

"You can choose your own repertoire, and a certain degree of adaptation is allowed, but the performance time needs to be controlled within 10 minutes."

In this world, music performance is closely related to spiritual power, but everyone has different spiritual power characteristics, and the effect of combining with spiritual power when playing will be different, just like dressing, skin color and body shape, people choose makeup It will be different from clothing, but the ultimate goal is to pursue the most perfect presentation.Similarly, in order to achieve the best performance effect, it is very common here for players to make small changes to the repertoire according to their own spiritual characteristics.

"You don't need to pursue the integration of mental power too much, the one that suits you is the best." Perhaps because Shen Qiran was too nervous, the female examiner explained in detail, "Our scoring system is very intelligent and comprehensive. It doesn't just look at the use of mental power. The effect, the proficiency and completeness of your performance, the expressiveness and emotional investment in the work, and even whether your playing posture is standard and beautiful will affect your final score."

Shen Qiran glanced at a machine on the piano, which looked a bit like a small video camera, probably what the examiner called an intelligent scoring system.

"I'm ready." Shen Qiran quickly selected the piece he wanted to play, put his hands on the keys, and looked at the examiner, "Can we start now?"

The examiner adjusted the machine, nodded to Shen Qiran, and then sat aside.

She has interviewed candidates for several sessions, and she knows exactly what level the students applying for the professional music department are about.In fact, this major in Moria College is considered to be of a public welfare nature, and it is aimed at ordinary students who want to obtain a professional music certificate but cannot afford the high tuition fees of private schools.

Of course, because of the reputation of Moria College, the competition for applying for the professional music department is not too weak, but compared with the orthodox music department exam, it is not enough.For example, the musical instrument performance test is also available in the music department, but they require a score of 60 or above to pass, while in the professional music department, only a score of 40 is considered a pass. If you can barely climb to 50 points, then Very good, as for 60 points... She has been proctoring the exam for so many years, and she has never seen a professional music student who can pass 60 points.

With this mentality, the female examiner didn't pay too much attention to Shen Qiran's performance, as long as the scoring system gave a result higher than 40 points, she immediately gave the other party a "pass" evaluation.

Shen Qiran brewed for a while, and played the first note on the keyboard.

He chose a piece called "Ode to the Wind Flowers". The rhythm is a bit similar to the Kanon in his original world. The melody is beautiful and pleasant, and the structure of the music is exquisite and complete. A little bit can be perfectly controlled.

In addition to the comprehensive score on the scoring system screen, there are many categories below, each representing a different evaluation value. After Shen Qiran played a few bars, the system had feedback. Each evaluation value began to flicker and change, and the comprehensive score continued to follow. fluctuation.

The expression of the female examiner on the side changed.

At first, she just thought that Shen Qiran played well, so she couldn't help but look at him a few more times, but when her eyes fell on the scoring system, her eyes almost popped out——

44 points!

Although it is not a very exaggerated score, but, but the performance has just begun!The integrity of the music, the stability of the mental power, and a series of bonus values ​​have not been counted in the result, but they are already so high? ?

The smooth melody is like clear and gentle flowing water, echoing in this small piano room.The female examiner's eyes were fixed on the scoring system, and the more she looked at it, the more she couldn't believe it. She couldn't help rubbing her eyes, suspecting that she was dreaming.

50 points... 53 points... 58 points... 60 points!

At this time, just halfway through the performance, Shen Qiran turned over a page of the music score and played the next passage, more evaluation coefficients were calculated, and the overall score continued to rise unabated.When the score broke through the 70 mark, the door of the piano room was pushed open, and the two examiners stood at the door in shock.The piano room was temporarily isolated, not too soundproof. They also heard the sound of the piano outside. At first, they didn't pay attention to it, but the more they heard it, the more surprised they became. Finally, they couldn't hold back anymore and rushed to check the situation.

When they saw the scores on the scoring system, the two were even more shocked, looked at each other, and had the same questions as the female examiner——

Did the student report the wrong major?Is he really just here to take the professional music department exam? ?

Shen Qiran was completely unaware of the reactions of the people around him, and focused all his attention on the performance.He felt that he had entered the state when he played the repertoire in the banquet hall before. A whole new world opened up to him. The music lingering around him gently embraced him, and his emotions fluctuated with the music, even the rhythm of his heartbeat. are changing accordingly.When the last note fell and the music was completely over, he suddenly felt like falling from a high altitude, his whole body was shocked, and he felt lost.

Maybe it's because the level of mental strength has increased by one level, Shen Qiran didn't feel a strong sense of fatigue this time, but was a little weak.He was silent for a while, and when he raised his head, he found that the three examiners were standing beside him, with expressions like hell.

Shen Qiran didn't know what was going on, so he quickly stood up and saluted several examiners.

"My performance is over." He glanced at the scoring system, 88 points, not sure if this value is considered qualified.

There was silence in the room, no one spoke, Shen Qiran felt uncomfortable being stared at by these people, and asked in a low voice.

"Are there any other interview questions?"

The male examiner was the first to react: "Oh! No more... Ah no, there are still a few small questions."

"Student," the older female examiner took over the conversation and went straight to the point, "Are you sure you are applying for the professional music department?"

Shen Qiran nodded: "Yes."

"Aren't you considering transferring to the Music Department?" the male examiner said eagerly, "Although Moria College is a military academy, the Music Department has a history of nearly a hundred years and is also the college's flagship major. That kind of specialized music academy!"

Shen Qiran was dumbfounded.

What's the situation? Why is the teacher of the professional music department actively promoting the music department?Cross-line backstab?

"Thank you," Shen Qiran said cautiously, "I still want to enter the professional music department."

"The faculty of the professional music department will be weaker than that of the music department, and the number of courses will be relatively small. Although they will also obtain a professional qualification certificate, the gold content is much weaker than that of the orthodox music department graduates." The older female examiner said, "We think Your level is very good, and it is more suitable for you to enter the music department."

Shen Qiran suddenly realized that if he was a normal candidate and received such an enthusiastic invitation and recommendation from the teacher, he might have agreed, but——

"Thank you teachers for your appreciation, but I still choose the professional music department." Shen Qiran said, "Because I am short of money."

"Money is not a problem." The young female examiner who has been silent all this time said, "Our college has a poverty subsidy policy. As long as you have excellent grades, not only can you fully reduce the tuition fee, but you can also apply for [-] star coins every month to live. subsidy."

... Am I short of living allowances?What I lack is debt repayment and travel money!

"Thank you, but the professional music department is more suitable for me." Shen Qiran said, "The formal music department needs to study for three years to graduate, and the professional music department can finish its studies in one year. I really need money, so I need to get it as soon as possible." Professional qualifications, I really don’t have much energy for further studies.”

This is undoubtedly the most regrettable situation, but the young male examiner still wants to fight hard.

"Is there something wrong with your family, so you need money urgently?" Besides, he couldn't think of a reason why the other party insisted on finding a job and earning money as soon as possible, regardless of the future. "You can tell us if you have any difficulties, the school I can come forward to help you raise donations.”

"No, no, no." Shen Qiran was afraid that the other party would overdo it, and quickly explained, "It's not that there are difficulties at home, or... it's just that I have to support my family."

This is not a lie, after all, after divorce, he will have to support his own family to support himself.

Several people were taken aback, they had seen the wedding ring on Shen Qiran's ring finger a long time ago, so did they give up their studies for the sake of their family?

"Do you... have children?" The young female examiner couldn't help asking.If the other party is a single father, it is understandable that he urgently needs to work early to make money in order to raise the child.

Shen Qiran was taken aback: "No, no, I've only been married for a short time, and I don't have children."

Three examiners: "?"

Just married, no children, no special difficulties in the family, but anxious to find a job early to earn money to support the family...

Several people looked at each other tacitly.

Damn, I'm afraid you raised a soft food at home, right? !

PS: People in the academy only think that Ranran has the same name as Marshal's wife, but he will lose his horse in the future.
