The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 457 Application
"Here, this is for you." Hillman, carrying the lunchbox, sat down at a table not too far from Jiang Hui.

It wasn't that he didn't want to sit closer, but rather that Jiang Hui's workbench was cluttered with too many things. The other person was engrossed in tapping their joints at the table, and just moments before seeing him, their expression had been solemn and focused, making him, the one who had disturbed them, feel rather embarrassed.

“You were already diligent enough before, but now that you have this place, you’re even more reckless. Jiang Hui, please restrain yourself, don’t ruin your health. You should go eat.” Hillman was very dissatisfied with the other’s behavior of staying in the lab.

Jiang Hui shoveled some rice into her mouth and wisely kept quiet.

Zhou Xiuwen had already answered for her: "It's not a matter of studying hard right now. Can she even go to the canteen? Those people are completely crazy. Let's wait a while and see. It's good to have a place to stay."

Zhou Xiuwen was referring to this independent laboratory that was open only to Jiang Hui. It was a place she had recently developed and had become the meeting place for the group of five.

The group made no attempt to be polite, and as soon as they entered, they found a relatively comfortable place to sit down, just like they were at home.

"Has it been checked? Is your mental strength okay?" Clarence was particularly concerned about this.

Jiang Hui nodded. She had answered this question many times in the past few days and responded to many people.

“We still need to be careful. It’s really getting more and more bizarre. If you really want to do practical training, I have a complete set of equipment at my house in the main continent that you can use.” The young master had clearly developed a certain distrust of the school.

If things like surveillance cameras and simulated training grounds can malfunction, then what is truly safe?
Jiang Hui was momentarily speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. No, there was no need for that. It really was an accident, a chance less than one in ten thousand, and not all chances are like that…

Moreover, rather than attributing it to the school's negligence, Jiang Hui felt that she herself was somewhat cursed, always encountering unexpected mishaps, and each time in a bizarre way.

So if it really is a problem with her own destiny, going to Clarence's house would probably have the same effect. For example, last time she was just going to watch a game, and she almost caused a death. Was there any trace of the school then?

"It wasn't an accident," the person with their back to them, seemingly looking out the window, suddenly said, immediately silencing their conversation.

Jiang Hui frowned. What does that mean? Not an accident? Does that mean what happened to her at the mecha simulator training ground wasn't an accident?

What else could it be but an accident?
"You don't need to worry about those problematic simulation training grounds; they've all been dealt with. Try not to mention this matter to anyone in the future," Huan Xian said in a deep voice.

Jiang Hui had originally intended to, but seeing the other person's seriousness, she unconsciously took back her words and nodded in agreement.

"By the way, the school only assigned you this one, nothing else?" Zhou Xiuwen quickly changed the subject when he sensed the awkward atmosphere.

Jiang Hui shook his head: "There are also personal points and financial compensation, etc."

"Sigh, you've gone through this process before, so you know it. Don't suffer any losses, and don't be shy about asking if you need anything. But Jiang, I have to say, you've really had a lot of bad luck. Look, you've only been in school for a short time and you've already received compensation like this at least five times." At this point, even Zhou Xiuwen was speechless.

Because he discovered that his friend was really... unbelievable, incredibly skeptical of superstition.

He said, still somewhat shaken, "I think you really need to practice more and improve your strength, Jiang. Wasn't that too dangerous?" Jiang Hui: "...Actually, I didn't lose out either."

She tried her best to prove that she was really doing well, with her full personal points account, her bank account that had doubled invisibly, and the independent laboratory that Starkey had secured for her.

However, she was met with a joint attack from several friends, who sternly told her that this was not a stroke of luck. The invisible threat to her life, and the wounds that healed and reopened, were real and could not be ignored just because they had disappeared.

It's better not to have this kind of luck.

At the last school meeting, the teachers in the Combat Individual Department unanimously agreed that Jiang Hui's ranking was reasonable and valid, and in line with her level. The matter was then completely approved, including the previous proposal that was merely a formality.

Then they roughly discussed the compensation for Jiang Hui and Valiev, which was nothing more than some financial and personal points compensation.

The school had naturally communicated with the guardians in advance. Valiev's parents had already accepted it, but Jiang Hui's situation was a bit more complicated. Her temporary guardian was Stark, who made a different request to the school.

It wasn't a difficult matter, but it required the approval of the school's senior management, so Jason included it as a negotiation request at the meeting.

The whole process went relatively smoothly, since Stark didn't make any unreasonable demands, so it was over quickly.

For Jiang Hui, personal points or compensation would be nice, but not really necessary. So Stark, based on her needs, requested an independent laboratory and access to all courses in the Mecha Department from the school.

Generally, mecha students in higher education institutions, if they have the means, will apply to rent a laboratory from the school. Because resources are limited, usually only students with excellent grades and great talent can apply for an independent laboratory, and most mecha students on campus have to share laboratories. But Jiang Hui... doesn't even have a laboratory.

Stark applied for this program to provide Jiang Hui with the same learning environment as other mecha students.

Jiang Hui had once shared her thoughts with Stark. The elder didn't interfere with the child's choice, only advising her to consider it carefully. After all, no one dictates that a hero's child must follow the same path; if she wished to live a peaceful and happy life, that would be fine too.

So he still considered this possibility for Jiang Hui.

He knew the school's intentions; they probably wanted to keep this high-potential awakened individual in the combat unit, rather than having him distracted by learning mecha or even transferring to another department. But since the other party was considering other paths and possessed certain talent, he had the right to choose for himself.

Furthermore, the so-called course selection card is too restrictive for her. Her talent shouldn't be wasted like this, and she should enjoy the same resources as other mecha system students.

An independent laboratory and comprehensive basic courses were the resources he could use to secure the most basic resources for her.

Since the combat individual soldier system couldn't provide it to her, he would have to help her try to get it.
