Krafft's Notes on Anomalies

Chapter 169 Home Alone

At noon, when the sound of armored men walking for the third shift of the day passed by the door, Yvonne in the room completed the progress of today's homework.

This is certainly not the planned progress. In terms of teaching mode, the rough operation of the Wood family has no reference value, so we still use the alien soul as a template, combined with some localized curriculum adjustments, and dilute the progress as much as possible according to needs.

Based on long-term observation results, scientific statistics of concentration time, and taking into account the balance between work and rest and the physical and mental development needs of children, Kraft planned more than ten pieces of content to be completed in half a day, and spread them evenly over two weeks. inside.

In his preset situation, half a day should be used to complete the learning content intermittently, and the remaining half day should be used for activities and play, and go to the workshop. The craftsmen will also satisfy the needs of some children with the tacit approval of the internal affairs officer. Ask for help making some gadgets.

Theoretically this is the case.

Yvonne squeezed the excess ink from the quill tube back into the vial, let the results of the morning dry, and put it on tiptoe on the upper shelf of the cabinet.

In this way, the progress from this afternoon onwards will be a preview.

On the sixth day after Kraft left, she successfully completed the expected two weeks of homework and was ready to continue reading.

She sometimes wondered what they were going to do, and whether Coop would progress faster by following the doctor, or whether he would have no time to study. No matter which one it is, you need to step up to catch up, and it is best to surpass the other party.

A stubborn insecurity always pushes the person forward and is not appeased by improvements in clothing, food, or housing. The more comfortable and comfortable the environment, the more intense it becomes, and the things it gets are like fuel thrown into a furnace to fuel the fire.

Maybe she didn't even realize that a very simple logic had been firmly engraved into her understanding of the world.

Nothing can be obtained easily, and nothing can be given without cost. She understood this truth very early, and it was confirmed and strengthened during the difficult days. Thanks to this, she avoided many accidents or intentional incidents that would be horrifying to think about in hindsight.

In fact, she is far more sensitive and mentally mature than she appears or is imagined by others, and is aware of many things that have never been talked about.

For example, the status between himself and Kupu is actually unequal. It seems that both of them are in the same state of study, and both have nominally received a bonus for their contribution, but the latter also has other obligations. From the fact that he only took Kupu with him this time, it can be seen who is the "have". meaning".

And there is an inexplicable consensus between two adults. Even if the doctor seems to be trying his best to show equality, or even a little biased towards her attitude, some exchanges will only take place between people who know the inside story, and the content behind it is hidden by reference.

Obviously, Yvonne does not belong to this knowledge range, so she cannot participate in it.

As far as she knew, craftsmen's apprentices also undertook a large part of the repetitive work in their studies, and if she couldn't understand what the doctor was talking about and didn't have the same force as Coop, what was the meaning of her existence?

This made Yvonne not adaptable to the current life, and she felt envious of Kupp. Because the other party had the ability to use violence, he naturally also had a needed status, although this status may not be very stable.

The footsteps in the corridor faded away, and she remembered that they were a knight who looked older than the doctor because of his beard and younger than Coop. The younger of these armored men would greet her with a smile when they saw her, and the bolder ones would try to start a conversation.

Perhaps it's because there are very few women here, and most of the few are servants who deal with women's chores, while the women from the Duke's family can't wait to go around.

Internal Affairs Officer Wilbert did a good job in fulfilling his promise to take care of her. Due to her dress and calm temperament, Yvonne was probably regarded as a visiting lady from an upper-class family, and was entertained like a peacock by some over-energetic people.

She didn't like the treatment and had a hard time becoming interested in the topic they were supposed to be using to attract attention. Most of these so-called novel contents have been heard when I went to the workshop to check the progress.

She originally thought this could be one of her jobs, but she didn't understand it at all, but she learned that she could help out with something. After handing the trophy dagger to the craftsman for processing, he overheard a bunch of complicated chatter from a wide range of sources.

For example, someone ate something secretly in the kitchen, but no one has been found yet; the lettuce produced in a certain manure field was not washed; a very trusted knight often met with his secret lover when he went out on official business; There might be a beer share of the month in the wagon; and rumors of hauntings in some of the castle's more remote corners.

Although she didn't find it very interesting, these rumors did have some magic that made people want to listen to them. She watched the craftsmen remove rust and polish the dagger and replace the handle, and listened for a long time without realizing it.

When the brand-new dagger was sheathed in leather, Yvonne realized that she had been delayed here for half an afternoon.

This is also the reason why the extra content was not completed until the sixth day. Another reason is that the doctor does not allow reading by candlelight for too long at night.

After sitting on the chair for a while, I imagined that I could finally gain a little advantage in at least one aspect, and that the feeling of insecurity was alleviated a little. She desperately wants to do something, but currently the only thing she can work on is text learning, which seems far away from life.

My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. Someone had probably brought lunch. Don't pay much attention. The servant will leave soon after politely knocking on the door as a reminder. There is no need to rush to open the door.

She swung her feet on the chair that was not touching the ground, and continued to imagine their surprise when they came back. This recognition would make Yvonne happy, although she did not understand why this would be recognized.

The knock on the door was different today. After two rounds, it was still ringing relentlessly. After finding no one answered, a strange male voice came from outside.

"Professor Kraft, are you there?"

It doesn't seem like he's delivering food. Yvonne jumped off the stool, trotted to the door, and opened a crack that revealed half of her face.

A visitor in black robes stood at the door. His high forehead with sparse hairline was very conspicuous in the midday light, making him look older than he sounded.

Seeing that it was a little girl who opened the door, he looked surprised for a moment, but quickly adjusted his expression and bent down slightly, "Good afternoon, young lady, I'm sorry to disturb you. Those careless guards actually told me that this was what I wanted. Looking for someone to live in.”

The black robe is a attire that doctors often wear. There is a leaf-like badge with a different color but a familiar style on the chest.

Maybe it was a colleague, another doctor of high status.

"No, you have come to the right place. Do you have anything to do with Mr. Kraft?"

"Brimmer, professor at Rivers University, met Professor Kraft at the dinner. He should still remember me." The visitor introduced himself and handed over a small, flat box wrapped with a ribbon. There was a smell of incense, "I came here for an academic gathering."

Yvonne was confused for a moment, only understanding that this was someone who came to Kraft for something, and did not reach out to pick it up.

"A meeting gift prepared for new colleagues, a local tradition of visiting." Brimer explained, looking past her towards the door, "Is Professor Kraft here?"

"Mr. Craft went out a few days ago. You may be able to come back in a week."

"Ah, that's really unfortunate." He said this, stroking his chest, as if he was having trouble breathing due to running around in the hot weather.

Perhaps because he is more sensitive to emotions and intentions, Yvonne felt that he was not particularly surprised, nor was he disappointed that the trip was in vain. He was just having a conversation without any twists and turns.

"We need to understand the speech content of the participants to arrange the sequence, and customize the venue layout. If there is a need to arrange patients, we must start preparations now." Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Brimer said seriously, "It concerns Clough The order in which Professor Te appears may even directly affect the effect of the report."

It did sound important. Yvonne nodded to show that she understood what he meant, and was going to get a pen and paper to hand to him to write down what needed to be conveyed.

"Time is tight. I have to go back and make preparations as soon as possible. If we can't meet until a week later, I'm afraid Professor Kraft will have to make some concessions." He still handed over the box of exquisite gifts. "There is no reason to take back the gift. Give it to you, Miss." It’s also appropriate. Let’s prepare something else for the professor next time.”

"But if we can borrow some manuscripts, it should help us meet Professor Kraft's needs? Please don't get me wrong, it's just to know the appropriate demonstration of patients and treatment effect performance. The academic style of Rivers University will never allow stealing from others. Academic Achievements."
