Chapter 24: The Interview
"Hey, how come it's you again, you pervert! Why are you always lurking around us?" The three girls ran up to Jiang Qicai, and before Wang Shiyu could speak, Zhang Lan was already pinching Xiao Man's waist and glaring fiercely at Jiang Qicai.
Jiang Qicai let out a "wow!" and deliberately cast his gaze on Zhang Lan's towering chest, although Zhang Lan's figure was quite good, but her dress was still very conservative, even more so than Wang Shiyu and Qu Ting.
Jiang Qicai looked left and right, but couldn't even see the edge of a bra.
Seeing Jiang Qicai daring to show such a lewd and shameless gaze in broad daylight, Zhang Lan finally felt a little afraid. But soon behind her appeared a large group of guardian angels like younger brothers, as soon as they saw Jiang Qicai with this gaze, everyone's face showed strong hostility.
"Who are you? What did you come to our school for?" "Lan, do you know this guy?" "What's with that guy's expression, like he's never seen a girl before in his life? Damn it!"
……
Jiang Qicai listened to these people's one-by-one words by his ear, but his gaze didn't converge at all. Wang Shiyu looked around, then at Zhang Lan and Jiang Qicai, and hurriedly said "sorry" with embarrassment, then pulled Jiang Qicai's hand and ran into the school.
Jiang Qicai followed her, and on her face, he saw a hint of slight disappointment.
Maybe I just showed a bit too much of myself and left her with a bad impression. However, Jiang Qi had never been in the habit of caring about what others thought, even if the other person was a girl, and a pretty good-looking one at that.
Jiang Qicai has always liked to do as he pleases, doing whatever he wants without worrying about what others think of him.
After all, Jiang Qicai's way of life and his habit of catching ghosts would probably cause him to break up with any girlfriend he had. Jiang Qicai didn't want to trouble himself for the sake of emotions; after all, his mind was currently preoccupied with catching ghosts.
As he pondered, Jiang Qicai soon realized that what was presented before his eyes was a straight road. The road was lined with tall white poplars and golden phoenix trees, and couples were clustered together in twos and threes, hiding under the trees to enjoy their own little world.
Further ahead is the playground, on the left side of the lush green grass field with goals and a group of boys sweating profusely under the scorching sun playing football. Without saying, that's where the soccer field is. Surrounding it is a running track, to the right is the basketball gymnasium, further back are table tennis tables, tennis courts, badminton courts, volleyball courts, and other standard venues mixed together. There are also horizontal bars, long jump sand pits, and a swimming pool, all of which look very majestic and clean, just like they were newly built.
After running for a while, Jiang Qi finally saw a teaching building with more than a dozen floors, scattered around the roads, with a large fountain and sculptures in the middle, as well as artificial hills, goldfish, small gardens, corridors, big clocks, and even a medium-sized supermarket, laboratory buildings, office buildings, canteens, student dormitories, grocery stores... and so on. All of this made Jiang Qi feel that this private university was indeed grandly built. However, studying in such an environment was truly the dream of every student.
Wang Shiyu saw that she and Jiang Qicai had already run a long distance, finally slowing down their pace, panting slightly as they pointed to everything around them explaining: "The biggest difference between private universities and public schools is the difference in investment sources. Public universities are funded by national financial allocations, while private universities are invested in by private individuals or institutions. Therefore, in terms of tuition fees, private schools are generally higher than public schools. Moreover, there are more children from wealthy families among our students here, so the luxurious facilities you see are actually nothing to the school!"
Jiang Qicai showed understanding, then smiled and said, "So, your family is quite wealthy too?"
Wang Shiyu smiled slightly and changed the subject.
Two people walked for more than 20 minutes before arriving at the building where the principal's office was located. Before entering the gate, Wang Shiyu finally couldn't help but say: "Actually, I called you yesterday to come here as a security guard, the real reason is..."
Jiang Qicai smiled and interrupted her, saying astonishingly: "Because there are ghosts in this school, or someone has discovered something unclean, right? You think I have some skill in catching ghosts, so you want to see how I catch them!"
Wang Shiyu opened her eyes wide and looked at him, somewhat surprised: "How did you know?"
Jiang Qicai calmly said: "I'm not a fool! With a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan, only one security guard was hired to keep watch, I reckon anyone can guess what's going on!"
Wang Shiyu nodded and said, "But the current situation is not very serious after all. Everyone is just in a state of suspicion, and no one has seen those unclean things with their own eyes!"
Jiang Qicai said: "Actually... I'll tell you, you're wrong. There are no ghosts in this school."
Wang Shiyu was taken aback for a moment, and soon said disbelievingly: "But the terrifying incident that came from room 706 really had many people..."
Jiang Qicai sighed, "I'll say it again, what's truly terrifying in this world isn't ghosts, but humans! At least ghosts don't know how to use humans to do things for them, but humans can use ghosts to... Ah no, to borrow a ghost to kill people!"
Wang Shiyu wanted to say something more, but Jiang Qicai had already turned around and walked into the principal's office building, leaving Wang Shiyu standing alone in a daze, lost in thought.
The facilities of this private university are indeed perfect, with several elevators installed in place. Jiang Qicai just asked casually and took the elevator all the way to the 13th floor, from the entrance to the principal's office, no more than ten minutes back and forth.
The principal was not an old man with white hair as imagined, but rather a man in his 40s, who looked even younger than his actual age. He wore a crisp Armani suit, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses perched on the bridge of his nose, giving him a refined and cultured look. His hair was slicked back, shining brightly, and his feet were clad in a pair of yellow French-made Tie Eri Hermes leather shoes, which made him look more like a wealthy businessman than an educator.
In contrast, Jiang Qicai's outfit was far inferior. Although he also wore a three-leaf clover, Nike, and purple violet... they were all fake goods. This was the best that Jiang Qicai could come up with after rummaging through his entire wardrobe.
It wasn't until then that Jiang Qi realized there were already three people sitting on the leather sofa inside, two men and one woman, who seemed to be undergoing an "interview" with the principal. As soon as they saw Jiang Qi enter, they looked him up and down, all revealing a look of disdain.
It's obvious that because of Jiang Qicai's youthful appearance, they all thought Jiang Qicai was useless.
However, the principal didn't mind Jiang Qicai disturbing their interview at this moment. Instead, he chatted with Jiang Qicai for a few sentences and then invited him in before closing the door tightly. Although Jiang Qicai didn't understand why they were hiring security guards and night watchmen when there were women present, it was none of his business, so he just wondered briefly before turning his mind to other things.
Then, after Jiang Qi sat down on the sofa, the two men and one woman who were previously dissatisfied frowned even more, but they didn't say anything.
The next few people fell silent for a while, and the principal casually chatted about some family matters before suddenly asking a question that left everyone present feeling caught off guard.
