Examination of the Imperial Examination - Chapter 68
“Captain, he obviously still has reservations, such as his cat and how he got here.”
The punisher Rob looked at the backs of Alvin and Williams with flickering eyes, turned his head and said to Jonas Pillay.
“Rob, you know? When someone brings bad news, people tend to hate the person who brings it, but we don’t want to admit it, come to my office tomorrow, you need a psychological counseling, everyone There are secrets, and we don’t need to get to the bottom of it.”
Jonas Pillay said to Rob with a smile.

In the dark night, Alvin and Williams went down the street and walked about 500 meters before they saw the public carriage stop.
After waiting for a while, they returned to Palm Elm Street, one went to Pelican Street in the Rose District, and the other walked back to Citrus Street.
After arriving outside his house, Alvin first turned on his spirit vision, and after confirming that there was nothing strange, he took out the key and opened the door.
After the battle in Xiajie was over, they basically had nothing to do with them. After all, one of them was a retiree and the other was an informant, so they didn’t need to intervene in the rest.
In the living room, Alvin directly threw the black thin trench coat with holes into the trash can, and he still had 1,068 pounds of available assets, so he could still splurge a little.
Suddenly, he heard the grunting sound of his stomach and felt a strong hunger.
“Ah yes, Yuumi and I haven’t had dinner yet… Let’s take a shower first.”
Seeing the dust on his body, Alvin picked up Yuumi and went into the bathroom, ignoring her resistance, and put in the hot water and took a comfortable bath together.
“Okay, I will also learn the cooking skills of baking in the future, so let’s eat it like this today.”
At the dining table, Alvin saw that Yuumi didn’t like the beef he was stewing, and shook his head.
He felt that his body and mind were completely relaxed, and he didn’t open the book to study. He rested early tonight and finished the examination ceremony tomorrow, but the paper and brushes were all in the North District, so he would rush back tomorrow.
July 15, Sunday, 8:50.
He took Yuumi into the Warriors and the Sea bar.
He greeted the bartender at the bar, walked through the empty hall, went directly to the door of Williams’ room, reached out and knocked on the door.
Boom, boom.
“Please come in.”
Pushing open the wooden door, he could smell the air inside, filled with the smell of alcohol, which made him frown.
Seeing that Williams was still sitting in a familiar position, just putting down the wine glass in his hand, he looked good, and he didn’t look like he was drinking at all.
“Good morning, Mr. Williams, it looks like you are in a good mood.” Alvin bowed slightly and said with a smile.
“Haha, it’s the same for you, what’s the matter so early?” Williams laughed and answered in a rich voice.
The two have experienced the battle together last night, and their relationship seems to be closer.
“I’ll get 500 rounds of ammunition, and by the way, get my informant fee.”
Alvin went to the wine cabinet to get a glass, sat opposite, picked up the wine on the table, uncorked the bottle, poured himself a full glass, and Williams’ eyelids jumped.
Williams watched Alvin put the wine bottle on the table, took it away, and put it in front of him, without the slightest embarrassment.
“500 rounds? This is enough to participate in a small-scale battle. It seems that you really regard me as an arms dealer. There are only 300 rounds. Your informant costs…”
He glanced at Alvin with some doubts, and then said:
“Jonas Pillay said he would declare to the public that they had found what was lost on the Brown Elm Street assassin. He said this is your reward, and he said you know what it means.”
“It seems that the reason why Yuumi became an assassin was because of the extraordinary characteristics of the assassin who was killed on Palm Elm Street by the punisher more than 20 days ago, but it is worth thinking about if you declare it to the outside world. It seems that the assassin may come from a certain family. Or a mysterious organization, the church claims to have saved itself some unnecessary trouble.”
Alvin pondered for a while, then opened his mouth and said
“I see, please tell Mr. Jonas Pillay that I am very satisfied with the payment.”
Under the eyes of Williams about to kill, he drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, picked up the wooden box on the table, and walked out of the Warriors and the Sea Bar.
……………………………
North District, 3 Nicholas Street.
Explain to Yuumi, who is playing in the yard, that no one should disturb him, because he wants to “exam”.
Back in the study room on the second floor, locked the door, and used a silver knife to create a spiritual wall to seal the entire room.
According to the requirements of “Bamboo Slips”, Alvin placed a small bowl in front of the table and inserted a 12-inch short incense, but he did not light it.
Set up the pen and ink, spread out the paper, and prepared a glass of white water for himself, then walked to the front of the table to sit and wait quietly.
Suddenly, I felt the bamboo slips in my mind tremble slightly, a breeze blew in the spiritual space, and the incense sticking in front of the table was natural without fire.
The yellow-brown parchment in front of the table was swept up by the breeze to the top of the incense burner made of a small bowl.
Alvin watched this scene in surprise, and the pages didn’t make a sound during the whole process.
It’s not surprising that he can post anything during the promotion process. What he is most worried about now is not to make too much noise. He just regrets that why he didn’t put the ceremony in the bathroom.
The half-empty paper gradually faded from yellowish brown and turned into a piece of pure white paper, and then the pen on the table floated gently, writing without ink, and four more words appeared on the paper.
“Nan Ke Yi Meng.”
Alvin looked at the paper and read it out slowly.
The paper in the air made invisible fluctuations, and the scene around Alvin began to change rapidly.
………………….
The picture suddenly freezes, and before he has time to look around, he feels someone push him from behind.
“Come on, it’s your turn to enter the examination room.”
A voice came from behind, and when he looked up, he saw himself standing at the gate of an ancient literary academy. Two expressionless soldiers stood there, one of them stretched out his hand to Fang Yun.
“Certificate exam, document.”
He was stunned for a moment, and immediately reflected that this might be his exam venue~www.mtlnovel.com~ and saw the bookcase made of bamboo in his hand.
Opened the bookcase, and sure enough, there was a wooden examination card and identity documents on the top to hand to one soldier, and then handed the bookcase to another soldier.
The soldier on the right took the bookcase and looked through it. There were brushes, ink sticks, inkstones, pen holders, pen holders, paperweights, bamboo tubes containing water, candy cake cloth bags and other items. The soldier nodded and handed the bookcase to Alvin.
After putting Alvin in, he observed the surrounding, various ancient buildings.
If I hadn’t seen the words “Nanke Yimeng”, I would have thought I had crossed over.
The sky is blue and cloudless, and the blue sky is irregular in circles. I can’t help but admire: “What kind of power is this, I don’t know what the origin of the bamboo slips is, the uniqueness? It’s still the original quality, maybe I can achieve this level in the future, The words are written, and the words are punished by the pen.”
Just thinking about it makes me excited.
Under the leadership of the yamen, all the candidates entered the examination room according to their examination card numbers.
Alvin took a careful look at his exam card, which read “Di Ding Chen San”, and then slowly searched for it with the bookcase on his back.
The examination room is a row of small houses connected together, and the road between each row is enough for two carriages to run side by side.
The examination room is facing south, and the height of the room is less than ten feet. If Alvin enters it and stretches out his arms, he can touch the walls on the east and west sides, which is very narrow.
There is a table, a chair, and a toilet inside. There is a pen wash with clean water on the table, but there is nothing else.
Alvin found his test room, stood at the door and looked at it. From the moment he sat down, no matter what happened, once he left the test room, the test was considered to be over, and he could not re-enter the test room.
“So real?” Alvin looked around, feeling very curious.
