Chapter 15: Essay Test(1/2)
When Huaixiu returned to Desheng's workshop, Xiaoren and Cui'er immediately gathered around him. Cui'er is Qian Desheng's daughter, "How? How? Can I sign up?"
Huaixiu smiled and said, "I've paid you back."
"It took Huaixiu so long to come back, there must be a lot of people signing up," Xiaoren said.
Huaixiu said hey, I'm sorry to say that only three people signed up today.
Cui'er said, "Sister Huaixiu is so powerful. I can't even imagine that a woman can be a police officer."
Huaixiu said modestly, "I don't know if I can pass the exam yet. The exam will start in two days. At that time, all candidates will have to live in six doors and pass the written test, martial arts test, autopsy, and investigation. In order to pass."
Cui'er clicked her tongue twice, "It's so troublesome."
"If Huaixiu can't pass the exam, then these six doors are not that good." Xiaoren said.
Cui Er asked, "Why?"
"I'm blind."
Cui'er and Huaixiu both laughed.
Xiaoren said again, "I originally wanted to go with you today, but my uncle took me to the workshop."
Huaixiu said, "You should learn the craft from your uncle, and don't let down your mother's hard work. It's not easy for her, a son like you, to be ruthless enough to let you come to the capital."
Xiaoren nodded. "Are you going to the West Market tomorrow?"
"What are you doing in the West Market, Sister Huaixiu?" Cui'er asked.
Huaixiu replied, "Go and inquire about an old friend."
Cui'er said "Oh" and said, "I will accompany Sister Huaixiu tomorrow. The West Market is very big. It is the first time for Sister Huaixiu to come to the capital. She may get lost."
"I think you want to go out and play." Xiaoren revealed Tweetie's thoughts.
Cui'er was unhappy, "Zhang Xiaoren, I am your sister."
"Huh, I don't have a sister." Xiaoren said, "My sister has disappeared a long time ago, maybe she is dead."
In the evening, Uncle Zhang came to look for Huaixiu, "Xiu'er, if you can really find Agent Song, please ask him for news about Rong Niang, whether she is dead or alive..."
In fact, both father and son of the Zhang family care about Zhang Rongniang.
However, Huaixiu visited the Western Market in two days and could not find a tea merchant named Cheng. Although he was mentally prepared, he still felt a little disappointed.
But her whereabouts were placed on the desk of the boss of Jinyi Pavilion.
She really wanted to go to Six Doors.
"Feng Zheng, find Feng Erniang, and you can also check on this tea merchant surnamed Cheng."
*
On the day of the exam, it was a crisp autumn day. Huaixiu thought she had arrived early, but when she arrived, she realized that there were some people waiting outside the six doors. She deliberately counted ten, including Jiang Ze, a young man named Jiang who signed up with her yesterday.
, and Sheng Lingrong's niece Hu Yuzhu, one of them stood under the six-door gate, one stood under the wall across the street, one held the sword and closed his eyes to rest, the other stared at each other eagerly, and when he saw Huaixiu's eyes, he looked over.
, Hu Yuzhu stared at Huaixiu provocatively, and Huaixiu secretly wondered, does she have a grudge against everyone?
Not long after, three more people came, making a total of thirteen people.
"You're here."
"Hey, you're here too."
"Didn't you say you wanted to go home?"
"Well, I'm here anyway, so let's give it a try. The six doors are gone. Fortunately, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. In the future, there will be at least three words of six doors."
One person laughed and said, "Your calculations are quite accurate. I was originally going to Dali Temple. I heard that Dali Temple is very strict in recruiting agents, but it is easier to go through the six gates."
"Each other, each other."
It turns out that everyone has their own plans, Huaixiu thought to herself, and suddenly felt a gaze falling on her. She turned around, and more than one person was looking at her. In addition to Hu Yuzhu, Jiang Ze, there was also a girl about the same age.
She looked quite heroic, standing alone on the other side of the street, carrying a baggage and a sword, with four words "Keep strangers away" written all over her body. Seeing Huaixiu,
She looked away indifferently.
Huaixiu smiled faintly. Among the thirteen people present, there were three girls. I wonder how many female detectives will be recruited this year.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard someone talking, "The number of people signing up this year is ten times less than before, so all of us should be admitted."
"This is natural. If we don't want it, there will really be no one left with six doors."
"By the way, Brother Wang, you were here last year, do you know what the exams will be?"
Huaixiu couldn't help but prick up her ears when she heard the words. She saw Hu Yuzhu and Jiang Ze were also listening attentively.
Did Hu Yuzhu not know the question beforehand?
The man surnamed Wang smiled and said, "It's nothing more than the literary test, the martial arts test, the detective, the literary test, and the martial arts test are easy to handle. This detective is a case that has been solved by the six doors in the past. If you study it thoroughly, it will be nothing."
Someone said nervously, "The cases solved by Six Doors are not small cases, so don't be careless."
Someone replied, "What are you afraid of? Are we willing to be eliminated by them?"
Several people laughed.
Huaixiu heard Hu Yuzhu snort and wondered if she was going to show off again. Sure enough, "Six doors are not something that cats and dogs can get into? If you don't have real skills, you can't get in either."
Someone sarcastically asked, "Is that girl a cat or a dog?"
Hu Yuzhu was about to draw his sword again. The door of the Six Doors creaked open, and a middle-aged man came out. He held a roster in his hand, looked at the crowd and said, "I am the clerk of the Six Doors.
You can call me Uncle Wen."
Someone chuckled after hearing this.
Uncle Wen didn't care. "Anyone who is called by me can enter as long as he agrees. Today is the first exam, the written exam."
Everyone gathered around. But they heard Uncle Wen shouting his name.
"Zhang Bin."
"arrive."
"Li Rang."
"arrive."
"Jiang Ze."
Jiang Ze raised his sword to signal.
"Hu Yuzhu."
Hu Yuzhu smiled and called "Uncle Wen."
"Zhou Qingyue."
A female voice responded from a distance.
It turns out her name is Zhou Qingyue, Huaixiu thought to herself.
"Li Huaixiu."
"arrive."
Huaixiu successfully attracted everyone's attention again. Someone said, "She is Li Huaixiu who solved the case of the Passenger Ship Resurrection."
Huaixiu was not used to being noticed.
Read to the end, "Xu Changan."
No one answered.
"Xu Changan."
Still no one answered.
"Are you actually late for such an important exam?" Uncle Wen was very displeased. "It's the right time. Those who haven't arrived will be considered as abstainers."
"That's good, now we have one less competitor." Someone laughed.
Someone asked, "Uncle Wen, how many police officers are you recruiting this year?"
“You’ve already been admitted, what else are you going to take?”
Uncle Wen's eyes widened, "The rules are the rules. Get at least three first-grade grades in four exams. If you can all achieve this goal, you will all be considered passed. If you fail none, then none of you will be accepted."
Only then did everyone stop laughing.
Seeing that his words had a deterrent effect, Uncle Wen retreated to the door with great satisfaction, "Come in, it's getting late."
Here, "Wait, wait."
A girl came panting from a distance, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there was a traffic jam today, I'm late."
"Why is it another girl?"
"It's strange this year, there are so many girls coming to work as spies."
The girl ran so fast that she bumped into Huaixiu and apologized quickly.
