The fact that Bai Nuo worked as a police officer at the Environmental Protection Bureau near the school had long been spread throughout the school. Whenever female classmates were bullied and didn't dare to tell others, they would secretly come to Bai Nuo. If they couldn't find Bai Nuo, they would ask Jiang Hongtao, who was her good friend, for advice. As a result, the police actually came and arrested many gangs of small hooligans circulating nearby.

Moreover, they respond to calls quickly and don't have to worry about victims being retaliated against. Therefore, Bai Nuo, Jiang Hongtao and others have a very good reputation in the school and are very popular among students, especially some female students, who trust them very much.

Originally, Fang Meng was worried that his little girl was too pretty and would attract some male classmates with ulterior motives to harass her, but it turned out that was not the case at all.

The main reason was that Bai Nuo performed a powerful move by climbing up the stairs to save someone on the first day of school, which directly scared away some of the timid ones.

Later, some male classmates who were not willing to rely on their own efforts to develop their future, found that Bai Nuo and other girls seemed to have good family conditions, and they plucked up some courage to pursue them. Then they heard that Bai Nuo was a police officer engaged in criminal investigation. Even if they wanted to pursue him sincerely, they were forced to give up by those female classmates who admired Bai Nuo.

In the eyes of these girls, these ordinary-looking and educated classmates were not worthy of the lovely hero who secretly protected them.

In addition, Bai Nuo doesn't spend much time in school, and even when she is at school, she rarely appears on campus. Those who are interested in her have no chance to get close to her.

However, it is still undeniable that Bai Nuo, Jiang Hongtao, Shan Shushu and Liu Ying are outstanding among the freshmen of this year in terms of family conditions, appearance and temperament, as well as knowledge. In the two departmental quizzes, these four girls ranked first in their respective majors.

The total scores of the final exam will be announced in three days. Although some students who have finished the exam have left school for vacation, it does not prevent those students who are still in school from paying attention to the results of this final exam.

But no one knew that the people who cared most about their grades were definitely not themselves, but their roommates.

It's also possible that the focus isn't just on grades.

"Classmate Jiang, Classmate Bai, what about you? Aren't you going home either? Is your company not giving you a holiday?"

Bai Nuo, who was still lazily lying on the lower bunk, heard Shi Xingxiang's words, turned his head slightly to look over, raised his eyebrows, and said in a somewhat lazy tone: "If there are no cases, I should be able to take a day off. I'm just a technician, and not all cases require me, so I should be able to take a day off early."

"Oh, that's good. Then are you going home? Do you want to book tickets together in the afternoon? We asked in the morning and there were a lot of people at the train station. There should be fewer people in the afternoon." Shi Xingxiang looked at Bai Nuo with a gentle smile, looking kind and caring.

"No need!" Bai Nuo curled his lips and smiled indifferently, "My home is in Beijing."

"Are you a local?" This time, not only Shi Xingxiang looked at Bai Nuo in surprise, but even Chai Shaolan and Mu Yuelan, who had originally not paid much attention, looked at Bai Nuo in surprise.

Bai Nuo's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at his roommates with amusement: "Is it strange that I'm from Beijing? I work here."

"But...we heard you were transferred from a county in the Northeast. How come you're a local?"

"Then you have found out quite a bit!" Jiang Hongtao turned around and glanced at his roommates over there, chuckled, but the smile in his eyes faded a little.

The smile on Shi Xingxiang's face froze, but she quickly regained her gentle smile. "It's not that I meant to ask on purpose. I have a friend whose brother is also in the police force. He heard that I have a roommate who is also in the police force and felt very close to him. Are we in the same line of work? That's why he asked. Then I heard from him about the closure of Bai Nuo.

He said that Bai Nuo is very good at drawing portraits. He even drew several portraits of criminals for his former unit to help solve cases. That's why he was transferred here by the Public Security Bureau in Beijing. I originally thought Bai Nuo was from a small county in the Northeast.

"Heh!" Bai Nuo chuckled. "I went there to work in the countryside, but the job here is indeed a partial transfer."

"Going to the countryside?" Chai Shaolan looked at Bai Nuo's fair and tender face seriously, her expression full of surprise. "I really can't tell that you have been to the countryside. I have a relative who also went to the countryside. When he came home to visit relatives during the Spring Festival last year, I almost didn't recognize him. He was so fair and clean before he left, but when he came back, he looked much more haggard and his skin was dark. It seemed like he had aged ten years in an instant."

Bai Nuo leaned sideways, resting his head on his hand, and nodded with a smile, "That's exactly what happens. After going to the countryside, you have to work in the fields every day, working tirelessly to earn time, and being exposed to the scorching sun. How can it not change? I'm lucky; I don't get tanned. Plus, after I went there, I was assigned to the brigade's breeding team. Every day I just walk the horses and occasionally help feed the cows, so I'm basically not exposed to the sun."

"Then you are really lucky!" Chai Shaolan nodded sincerely. This is much better than her relative's sister.

The awkward atmosphere finally dissipated a lot after the two of them had a normal chat, but Shi Xingxiang still seemed unconvinced and said something else.

"Bai Nuo, you said you were from Kyoto. Is that true? Your accent doesn't sound like one at all. I know a few locals, and they don't speak like you."

Bai Nuo curled his lips speechlessly. "Because my family has strict upbringing and attaches great importance to education and training, they have been training me to speak Mandarin since I was young. I cannot have an accent when communicating with others."

"Oh my god, your family still has this rule?"

Shan Shushu looked at Bai Nuo in surprise. She was from Guangdong Province and had a unique Guangdong accent when she spoke Mandarin. It was only after she entered university and spent a long time with the young ladies around her who spoke in ordinary language all day long that she gradually corrected her accent.

Bai Nuo smiled and nodded: "Yes, there are quite a lot of rules in my family. We younger generations have been learning from our elders since we were young, so we are used to it a long time ago."

For a family that has been passed down for dozens of generations, there will always be many family rules no matter what period they live in. Those are passed down from generation to generation by their ancestors and are also the inheritance continued by their family. Therefore, even in special times, the elders in the family still teach and restrain the younger generations in the family according to the family rules passed down by the family.

"Aren't you tired? Even speaking has rules!" Shan Shushu was a little surprised and didn't quite understand. Although her family conditions were good and there were elders who were leaders in the local area, there were really no rules that needed to be followed at home. As long as the younger generations did not commit crimes or bully others, the elders would be very satisfied.

Bai Nuo smiled and shook his head: "No, my family has been learning these things since they were young. It's not difficult. Just develop a good habit."

The two people were chatting and laughing, and the content was quite normal, but in the eyes of some people it became a show-off, showing off their family background and their status as locals.

Shi Xingxiang lowered her head slightly, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes.

Jiang Hongtao glanced over indifferently, then looked away without changing her expression. She had seen many people like this and was almost used to it.

"Jiang Hongtao, Bai Nuo is a local, unlike us, so she doesn't need to book a train. What about you? Do you want to..."

"I'm also from here, so I don't need to book a ticket. I don't have a Beijing accent because I served in the military in Northeast China. It's well known that a Northeastern accent can easily distort any other accent, so... you should ask someone else."

Jiang Hongtao was too lazy to watch the other person's performance, so he interrupted directly and even said several answers in advance.

"Pfft, cough cough cough, sorry, my throat feels a little uncomfortable!"

Jiang Hongtao looked speechlessly and helplessly at Bai Nuo, who turned his head away and tried to suppress his laughter.

She really didn't expect that as soon as she looked away, Shi Xingxiang would point the finger at her. Not only that, she was so stupid as to try to sow discord.

Even though she used to like to use force to solve problems, it doesn’t mean she has no brains!!!

Just when the atmosphere in the dormitory became strange and awkward again, there was a knock on the dormitory door. Then a female classmate from the next dormitory pushed the door open, looked around inside, and finally set her eyes on Bai Nuo.

"Student Bai Nuo, there's a man in military uniform downstairs looking for you."
