Chapter 1193 Arrangements Made

Ian is assessing it right now."About fifteen minutes later, Ian spoke again:"Master, if I disable the internal defenses and activate the Blue Star's attack laser cannons, the success rate is seventy...The old woman didn't hide anything and told the whole truth. Because of this situation, she even got a lower rent. Since the old woman guaranteed it, they waived the monthly rent but required her to pay four years' worth upfront.

"This house is so cheap because of this reason. If you guys are particular, I can help you find another one."

The old woman didn't hide anything, and told the three members of the Xing family the truth.

"Thank you, Aunt Wen, for your kindness. Our family doesn't mind these things."

Ripple smiled and said.

As long as you don't mind, take a look at the house first and then decide.

The house is on the first floor, a three-unit integrated apartment type. The one being rented is the middle one, about fifty square meters. As soon as you enter through the door, it's a hallway. The door faces the kitchen, which leads to a cool terrace.

Next to the kitchen on the left is a rectangular bathroom. There are two rooms, about the same size, on either side of the hallway, which can be used as bedrooms, very suitable for their family of three.

After viewing the house and consulting with her elders, Lian'yi decided on this one. The rest of the process went smoothly. Since they were from out of town, Grandma Wen accompanied them to the factory security department to register, leaving copies of their ID cards and signing a rental agreement.

Because Old Mrs. Wen vouched for them, they finished the whole process in half a day. The Security Department also learned about Ripple Military Academy student's identity. Besides, Ripple bravely stepped forward and saved the children from the drug dealer, which allowed Mr. and Mrs. Xing to smoothly integrate into the family courtyard.

After completing the necessary procedures, the family of three moved from the guest house to their new home. They spent a week tidying up and had everything else shipped over from their old place. Ripples was busy purchasing necessities like rice, flour, cooking oil, and various seasonings. She needed to settle her parents in before she started school.

Because the elderly couple had money on hand and were not worried, plus they had enough food from their hometown to last them a year, they were not in a hurry to start small businesses for now.

Ripple went to the National University of Defense Science and Technology with her in-laws within the specified reporting time, taking them for a tour and letting them get familiar with the surroundings.

"Father and mother, please stay here at ease. When you have nothing to do, you can go for walks with Auntie Wen and see if there are any suitable small businesses. Investigate first before making a decision."

I'll definitely be living on campus, only coming back home on weekends and holidays. When the holiday comes around, I'll get back to you guys with a plan."

“Don’t worry about this, you’re here to study, focus your mind on your studies. Your mother and I aren’t children, we’ll figure things out here first before we say anything.”

Mr. Xing knew his own capabilities. He could make money in the county town, but that didn't mean he could do so here. Besides, he had no relatives here to help him out, so he would be more cautious.

Ripple checked in with a simple greeting, paid her tuition and accommodation fees, found the girls' dormitory building, settled her bed, then accompanied her parents for a tour of the school. They learned the locations of the teaching building, cafeteria, library, auditorium, playground, etc., and then returned to their rental place with her parents.

"Yo, you don't have to stay at school tonight, right"

Xíng's mother worriedly asked.

"No, it's my first day reporting today. I'll come back to keep you company for two days, and then I'll go back on the last day."

The ripples replied, it's been eight years in the world, there's no privacy at all. She still has a long time to live here, she should spend more time with her parents.

"Then I'll cook some delicious food for you these two days."

Xing's mother immediately took on her role as a doting mother, starting to prepare delicious meals for her daughter. In her view, the cafeteria food was both expensive and unpalatable, surely not as tasty as home-cooked dishes.

Lianshui spent two days at home and took the bus back to school in the afternoon on the last day.

When ripples entered the dormitory, she discovered that she wasn't the last one to arrive because there were still three empty beds.

After the four girls in the dormitory saw Ripples, they all politely greeted each other. Two of them were from the local area, while the other two were from the same province. Only Ripples was an outsider.

"Aren't there three people still missing from our dorm Isn't today the last day for check-in"

To avoid the awkwardness, she casually asked.

There are only five of us in our dormitory, and we estimate that there are only five girls in our major.

The local girl Zhao Xinru with a round face said.

"I didn't expect there to be so few of us majoring in this field."

Another classmate, Qian Luxi, also agreed.

"I was transferred here."

Sun Guoguo, a resident of this province, said.

"I chose this major specifically."

Another local resident, Li Xingyue, blinked her eyes and said.

Ripples, what about you

Sun Guoguo asked.

"This major is my own choice. At first glance, it seems more prestigious and can be applied to future warfare."

Ripples said with a very professional look on her face.

"You're amazing!"

Zhao Xinru praised.

Afterward, the five people inquired about each other's college entrance exam scores. Lian Yi once again confirmed her status as a top student, and because she had repeated a year, she was the oldest among the five roommates. The four others naturally called her "Lian Yi Jie".

"Just now, the counselor came to inform us that there will be a class meeting tomorrow. We'll get to know each other, elect class officers, and pick up books and military training uniforms. There are quite a lot of things to do."

Qian Luxi immediately relayed the counselor's notification.

"Oh! I heard that military training here lasts for a month and is very strict."

Li Xingyue was starting to feel scared.

"Need I say more This is a military academy, military training is definitely strict, everyone should get ready in advance."

Zhao Xinru immediately said.

The ripples don't matter; she meets the physical requirements, so there's no need to worry about being made difficult by the drill instructor.

The next day, after the five roommates washed up, they had breakfast together and then went straight to the teaching building to gather in the classroom notified by the counselor.

After the five of them entered the classroom, they found out that they were truly the only five girls in their class, with all the other students in their major being boys.

Everyone felt a little awkward being watched. Ripples sat in the front row, leading the way. The other four followed Ripple and also sat in the first row.

Their professional counselor was also a male teacher who claimed his surname was Zhou. After introducing himself, he asked everyone to take turns giving their introductions.

The boys egged the girls on to start first, since they were outnumbered. After all, Lian Yi was their dorm leader and naturally went up first.

Even ripples didn't shy away. She confidently went up, introduced herself, including her name, birthplace, college entrance exam score, and even briefly explained her reasons for applying to this major.

Teacher Zhou led the applause and praised Lian's self-introduction. The following students followed this template.

"Classmates, you have four years of time to get to know each other, and I believe there will be more opportunities to connect in the future. Let's first choose a class committee. The committee will be responsible for the daily affairs of our class. We also welcome everyone to volunteer."

After Teacher Zhou finished speaking, she looked around and then focused her gaze on Lian'er.

Lián Yī directly turned her head and whispered to Zhào Xīnruo beside her, seeming to say, "Don't bother me," a very obvious expression.

"Teacher, I want to be the class monitor."

A boy in the back stood up and said.

"Okay, come forward and tell me about your strengths."ndmother. This is already very plentiful, and I am full."Then, the ripples were sent off to rest by the old general.After the ripples subsided, General Du's expression darkened. He called over his ste...
