Section 47, Squad Leader of the Fourth Platoon

  Lan Ke Xin is indeed an archaeology major, but unlike Yang Le, she didn't choose this major because of her obsession with "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles" and a desire to become a tomb raider. Instead, it's because she genuinely loves the way that artifacts from different eras can transcend time and space to showcase the profound cultural heritage and historical significance of bygone ages to people today. Moreover, she doesn't think there's any close connection between archaeology and tomb raiding.

  Lan Kexin's father was a collector of ancient artifacts and a well-known connoisseur. Under his influence, Lan Kexin had been interested in those exquisite or bronze things since childhood. After learning that Shuimu University was recruiting students for the Department of Archaeology, he came to join with great enthusiasm.

  Unexpectedly, the Archaeology Department had only two female students since its establishment. The first batch supposedly had a beautiful senior sister, but she has long since graduated and become a well-known collector in the industry. Now there is only one female student left, and the dormitory arrangement within the department is not ideal. She can only be arranged to live with the Biological Science and Technology Department, which is also a small department.

  The only roommate in the dormitory who is also from the Archaeology Department, let Lan Ke's heart feel a little disappointed. After lunch, he planned to take a nap in the dormitory before going to the classroom to report, but unexpectedly fell asleep and overslept his scheduled time. He then asked for directions all the way to the location of Teaching Building 2, and finally rushed over panting.

  She didn't expect that as soon as she pushed the door and entered, more than a dozen pairs of eyes would be staring at her with fervor. Perhaps it was because everyone suddenly discovered that there was a beauty in the class, so they showed slightly more enthusiasm, and even someone took the initiative to come up and chat with her, which made Lan Ke Xin, who had always been a good girl since childhood, feel very uncomfortable, and even had the idea of turning around and walking away.

  Just as she was hesitating, she heard Li Dazhuang's earth-shattering roar. She turned around in shock and found Ye Qiu, the boy she had met on the train, standing there. At first, she thought her eyes were blurry and that she was hallucinating. It wasn't until he smiled and nodded at her that Lan Ke realized it wasn't an illusion.

  Twenty students, only one woman, many wolves and little meat, the ratio of men to women reached a surprising 1:19, the intensity of the competition behind can be foreseen. However, what made those wolves depressed was that before they could make their move, this piece of meat had already been snatched away by another wolf, how could they not feel frustrated?

  Seeing Lan Ke Xin smiling and sitting in Yang Le's original seat, the eyes of others looking at Ye Qiu were quite unfriendly. Two sturdy men seemed to be itching to come over and intervene.

  "What brings you here?"

  Ye Qiu and Lan Ke Xin suddenly asked in unison, then both were stunned, and simultaneously burst out laughing. Lan Ke Xin felt a little sweet in her heart, women cherish this kind of spiritual coincidence especially.

  Li Dazhuang, who was lying on the table, heard the two people asking questions with a tacit understanding, and suffered another heavy blow. He looked at Yang Le and smiled bitterly, it seemed that as Yang Le said, they had to introduce foreign aid from other departments.

  "At that time, I didn't have your contact information and thought I would never see you again. Who knew you were also a student?!" Lan Ke couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle as she recalled Ye Qiu's shabby appearance on the train. This guy was really good at pretending, wasn't he? A proper student from Shui Mu University, yet he insisted on dressing up as a migrant worker and even managed to bully that boy who had hit on him to death.

  "Wealth shouldn't be shown off, my mom said. Since it's my first time going out, carrying tuition fees on me is not safe. So I dressed up as a migrant worker." Ye Qiu made up an excuse. Back then when he was traveling outside, he indeed met a university student who disguised himself as a migrant worker, but unfortunately, the thief was more cunning and his tuition fees were still stolen, and it was him who helped get them back.

  "Hee hee, when I left home, my mom said the same thing. She didn't even let me bring my own tuition fees. She just gave me some living expenses and had the tuition fees sent to my aunt's house instead. So I had to come to Yanjing and then go pick it up." Lan Kexin said with a deep sense of resonance. Ye Qiu was originally still wondering why she came to Yanjing so early, but it turned out that she also came to rely on relatives.

  Two people were whispering to each other, when the classroom door was pushed open again. A young man with glasses and thinning hair combed over his head walked in. He scanned the room, looked surprised for a moment when he saw Lan Ke Xin, then broke into a smile.

  "Hello everyone, I am your counselor Chen Hailiang. You can call me Old Chen or Hailiang, both are fine. Welcome to the small family of Shuimu First Primary School Department." Chen Hailiang's words were humorous and vivid, and everyone had heard about the origin of Shuimu First Primary School Department during registration, so they all burst out laughing below.

  "Although everyone here is a stranger to me, we will be classmates and friends for the next four years. Some of us may even share common interests in tomb raiding and can form small groups like the Three-Five Cigarette Combination, Gemini Organization, SHS Combination, etc. We can also help each other out when needed. So, let's not feel awkward or distant from each other. How about we start with a self-introduction?"

  In the midst of everyone's cheerful laughter, Chen Hailiang's suggestion immediately gained everyone's support. There were even people who took the initiative to run up on stage and introduce themselves first, which was also a good way to win over the teacher's favor. Ye Qiu couldn't help but take a few more glances at Chen Hailiang, this unassuming male teacher was not simple at all, with just a few words he had bridged the distance between himself and the students, mobilizing everyone's enthusiasm.

  Twenty people stood up one by one to introduce themselves, Ye Qiu's introduction was brief and clear, but the whispers it caused were not small. Who let him be so unscrupulous, on the first day of school he already hooked up with the department flower? Because the Archeology Department only has one class per year, and there is only one female student in the class, Lan Ke Xin, even including students from previous years, she is the only one, so she naturally holds both positions as class flower and department flower.

  "Great. Everyone's introduction was very vivid and interesting. I've taken note of your names, so from now on we're friends. Chen Hailiang's small eyes sparkled behind his glasses as he smiled and glanced at each person's face, saying: "Although our class has a small number of people, even a sparrow has all its vital organs intact, right? We still need to set up a framework for our class cadres. In the future, when we receive instructions from the school or participate in school activities, it will be up to the class cadres to take the lead. Since there are only a few of us, let's not bother with any elections. Just now, everyone stood up and introduced themselves, so you should all have a basic understanding of each other. How about this: first, choose one person who left a good impression on you as our class monitor. The other cadres will be appointed by the class monitor himself."

  Ye Qiu shook his head and smiled wryly. What's the point of being the leader of a class of twenty people? Moreover, they were all troublesome tasks that didn't bring any benefits. Ye Qiu wasn't interested in competing with others either. He just thought Chen Hailiang's words were interesting, using the term "organizational cabinet" to describe such a small class organization.

  Chen Hailiang was well-prepared, taking out slips of paper and pens to distribute to the students. Ye Qiu didn't think twice, writing down 'Yang Le's' name, feeling that he was a more enthusiastic and open person who should be able to organize class activities well.

  Unexpectedly, the voting result was far beyond everyone's expectation. Ye Qiu, who was disliked by most of the boys in the class, unexpectedly got the highest vote - four votes. Under Chen Hailiang's approval, he was elected as the class monitor with a high vote.

  Ye Qiu saw Li Dazhuang and Yang Le looking at him with a sly smile, and he had the urge to strangle them. The class monitor of the four votes, how ironic is this?

  Ye Qiu's first thought was that this matter must not be known by Tang Guo Lin Bao and the others. Losing face in front of them.
