Chapter 2128
Henry would always be pushed aside whenever it was time to collect their meals.
One girl noticed the fiery gazes coming from behind her and suddenly turned around.
The four men who had been ogling at her quickly withdrew their gazes and scolded Henry.
"Henry, where are your eyes looking?"
"He may be silent all the time, but he probably doesn't have a good heart!"
"Just look at how he keeps staring at the bottom of her dress. What a pervert!"
They cursed very loudly, just to divert all of the attention to Henry. They were very clear about how noble the identities of the students of the academy were. If they had really wanted to bring them trouble, they would be in big trouble.
Henry frowned slightly, then looked away.
"You good-for-nothings! Keep staring and I'll dig out those dog eyes of yours!" The female student swore at them then turned away.
Several handymen broke out in cold sweats. They glanced at Henry, as if they had forgotten about how they had just slandered Henry. In their eyes, he was a just a fool.
For Henry, every second was used for his searches of all sorts. During the night, he searched for the opportunity to enter the records office. During the day, he searched for the figure he come across in the records office. The clue Henry had was only the shallow sword mark on the sole of that person's shoe. If he wanted to find it, he had to rely heavily on luck.
As days went by, a piece of news also emerged from the kitchen.
"Have you heard? The academy is going to organise an assessment again."
"Three people from the kitchen would be selected to the assessment every time, which would provide us with plenty Spiritual Stones!"
"Who do you think will be selected to go this time?"
"Master Sun of stove number one will definitely be going. As for the people he would bring along with him, he would probably take Henry with him. After all, he works very efficiently, and doesn't seem to tire easily, it's not any less busier than the kitchen out there. As for the last spot, he'd definitely be taking his apprentice along with him."
The kitchen was a small place. Whenever anything happened in there, it would immediately be spread out, and everyone would be gathered there to discuss about it.
Abdul was one of the helpers in the kitchen. When he heard those rumours, his face darkened. He had his eyes set on those allowances, but now that he had heard of those rumours, his hatred for Henry could no longer be suppressed.
"Why would a fool want so many Spiritual Stones?" Abdul cursed in his heart as he squinted at Henry, who was slaughtering fish on the seafood area. Henry had no idea that he had garnered the hate of others. His gaze were attracted to a figure.
"Master Wong!"
A melodic voice sounded from the kitchen. It came from a beautiful figure who jumped and hopped in the kitchen as she passed by Henry. Upon seeing that figure, the eyes of Abdul and others were immediately attracted, but they quickly forced themselves to look away because they knew that that woman was not someone they could look at as they pleased.
The Prince Academy was divided into four grades. This woman was particularly famous in the second grade. It was said that she was a genius in Holy Land with countless pursuers. Last year, a handyman in the academy had been taught a severe lesson by several boys because he could not help to steal a few more glances at her.
However, Henry's gaze stayed on the woman from the very beginning.
Abdul sneered when he saw Henry's actions. "You fool!"
The thing that had caught Henry's eye was exactly the soles of the woman's shoes. There was a shallow sword mark, which had been left by him. After Henry had memorised the appearance of this person in his mind, he turned around and continued slaughtering the fishes.
The one called Master Wong was the head chef of the kitchen.
"Oh, you've come." The head chef, who was usually strict and serious, showed an ingratiating look. Most of the students in the school were people they could not afford to provoke.
"Master Wong, I have to trouble you to come out with me today after you are finished with work. The director and the higher-ups were very satisfied with your cooking last time," the woman said.
Master Wong quicky nodded and said, "Sure, sure. How could you come in person just to ask me for such a small thing? You just had to give me a call."
"I just happened to pass by, so I thought I'd come in and take a look. I'll be leaving for now, Master Wong." The woman waved her hand then left the kitchen in a playful manner.
As she left, the woman could not help showing a little bit of doubt in her eyes.
"Where on earth is that person hiding?"
All the faces of the people in the kitchen, including Henry, appeared in the woman's mind, but she skipped through all of them. She was familiar with the people in the kitchen and knew who they were. As for the new helper she had doubts about him
before, but after she had asked
around and found out that heTêxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
seemed to have some sort of problem with his brain and did not even know how to speak. He even did everyone's work every day and was terribly bullied.
"His capabilities should probably be at the Heavenly Way, at the very least." The woman said as she shook her head while leaving.
Night had fallen, the sky was slightly dark.
Master Wong had changed into a clean uniform, he did not notice the expectant looks on the faces of Abdul and the others. Instead, he called out for Henry, who was cleaning the seafood area.
"Henry, change into a clean set of clothes and come along with me. Let Abdul and the rest deal
with those things. Hurry up."
Henry did not say anything in
response He silently put down whatever he was working on and obeyed the chef's orders then changed into a clean set of clothes. A dozy expression still on his face.
Master Wong nodded with satisfaction. Such a person was exactly the kind they needed to work in the kitchen.
Henry followed behind Master Wong, leaving the kitchen and headed to the main building of the academy, which was also the location of the records
room.
There were some banquet halls in the main building.
The school was jointly built by the Ten Sacred Lands. Sometimes, big shots from the sacred lands would pay them a visit. Those banquet halls were specially prepared forthose big shots.
At that time, ten people were already seated in a banquet hall.
The woman who had visited the kitchen on the same day was also in the banquet hall.
Master Wong brought Henry to the exclusive kitchen of the banquet hall. The ingredients there were fresh and the environment was much better.
Henry walked over silently for the
whole time and observed his
surroundings quietly. He did not
know if it was because of the banquet that night, that the guard of the records office was not on duty. That was a great opportunity for him.
"Henry, turn on the stove."
"Clean the fish."
"Prepare the sides."
Henry did everything silently. He gathered a tiny ball of Qi on his fingertip, and with a gentle flick, the Qi entered the belly of Master Wong.
A few seconds later, Master Wong clenched his abdomen anxiously and ran out of the kitchen.
Henry was confident that Master Wong would not make his return within half an hour.
A mere second after Master Wong had left, Henry also left the kitchen and headed to the records office.
The woman Henry had seen that day, made him more suspicious about what had happened seven years ago.
Henry appeared at the records office and quickly read through the folders. Some of the events from seven years ago were quickly printed into Henry's
mind.
"The development of science and technology that surpassed everything else! The leading top-notch technology of the world!"
Such a title caught Henry's attention, and below it was a student of the uniform of Prince Academy holding a prize in his hand.
Henry read the passage below the title. The more he read, the heavier his breathing became, because it was exactly the same as what Angell had experienced!
