Starting with Proficiency Panel-Chapter 505: See the truth in 2 hours (content of the leisure new book)

To put it bluntly, she loves matchmaking, and it's entirely a hobby without any charge. All the mature singles in the company are her key targets, especially those like Li Qing, who haven't found a girlfriend in four years at the company.

And this administrative aunt is undeterred, repeatedly losing but always ready to try again.

Li Qing truly admires this administrative aunt with tangled thoughts, feeling both respect and a headache.

Until once, this administrative aunt personally accompanied him, witnessing Li Qing's chatting skills, even engaging in deep, icy conversations that she couldn't handle. After a period of silence, she finally moved to underground work.

After thinking for a while, he still answered the phone.

"Hello, Sister Li, have you eaten?" Li Qing greeted with a smile.

Sister Li cut straight to the point, saying directly: "Xiao Qing, on Saturday I've arranged a meeting with the son of the uncle of the third cousin of my seventh uncle's lady cousin's brother-in-law's brother's college classmate, named Chen Chencheng. This girl is very pretty, has never dated anyone, and I compared your compatibility based on her birthdate, zodiac, and personality - you're at least ninety percent compatible.

Saturday afternoon at five in Good Junction A17. Don't forget!"

Li Qing helplessly said, "Sister Li, are you sure you still want me to meet her? I think I'm not suitable."

He usually communicates normally, and even gets along well with many female colleagues in the company, but when it comes to matters of emotion, things drastically change.

He previously visited a psychologist; a rotund, extremely clever doctor told him this was 'Gender Communication Psychological Disorder Syndrome,' and then took away two thousand yuan from Li Qing without any emotion.

"No, you can do it, you need to believe in yourself!" Sister Li's voice was resolute, without any hesitation: "Rest assured, the other side is also a conversation terminator. According to today's internet terminology, she's an ultra-alloy iron girl! I think you will have some common language! Her family's decent, work is also quite good."

"I..."

"It's settled. No matter the outcome, you must try first to get results, hesitating here will only keep you where you are standing still, you're already at the age of thirty..."

"I got it, Sister Li, I will attend the appointment on Saturday punctually!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Qing sighed deeply. Honestly, he's not young anymore; it truly is time to start.

Even though he's learning magic, gradually stepping onto a path different from ordinary people, through these days of study, he also knows that the path of magic is not easily trodden. All the powerful Mages are extraordinarily gifted, even having remarkable encounters to accomplish it.

Finally, Li Qing sighed deeply again, didn't expect to passively accept a problematic woman as his blind date.

Having reached this point, Li Qing feels his life is quite a failure, um... rather a failure.

Dismissing all these irrelevant thoughts, Li Qing quietly awaited the arrival of midnight.

He checked the time, less than three minutes left, put the scroll of admission on the open ground, then put on the hood, hiding his entire face in the shadows.

Three minutes elapsed rapidly.

Soon saw the magic runes on the scroll beginning to rapidly flow like maggots, twisting to the utmost on the scroll, finally forming a sudden black crack above the scroll, wide enough for a person to pass through.

Li Qing paused for a moment, hesitated a bit, took a long deep breath, cautiously stepped forward and held his breath, stepping inside.

...

...

Dark!

Cold!

Whether it is the heavy clouds seemingly pressing down gloomily, or the slightly pungent air, smells like rotting meat.

And the first thing that appeared, was a boulevard paved with brownish-yellow bricks, flanked by unknown, tall trees, leaves swaying automatically, seemingly breathing rhythmically.

Even though it seems there's a problem describing it, that's exactly how Li Qing felt.

These trees are alive.

Fifty meters away on the boulevard is a rather exquisite gate, seen at a glance, built with red bricks stacked block by block, two large iron gates pushed outward, a towering huge building leapt into view.

In Li Qing's view, this so-called Magic Academy, overall, feels gloomy, sinister, just like a dormant giant beast, ready to devour.

Most importantly, clearly it's midnight, yet here it's daytime.

Indeed, it's daytime, despite the sky being extremely overcast, and in Li Qing's perception, hiding something.

"Is this the legendary Gray Magic Academy?"

Beside, a sharp and excited voice made Li Qing suddenly aware and wake up.

While his attention was focused on the academy, surrounding him, without knowing when, suddenly there were thirteen people standing in twos and threes behind him.

Everyone was wearing black robes, hooded, hiding their faces in darkness, making it hard to see clearly.

While these people were still discussing the Gray Magic Academy, Li Qing quietly moved backward, squeezed into the crowd.

Standing in front draws too much attention, Li Qing doesn't like to be ostentatious.

After a while, a person in a black robe walked forward, observing fourteen people began to move, Li Qing silently followed.

In an unfamiliar environment, never make moves that attract too much notice. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

The bird that pokes its head out gets shot.

This is the philosophy Li Qing realized during his career, he is self-aware of his abilities, knows where to position himself, achieving a balance where he's not prominent, but the company cannot do without him.

So much so that since graduation until now, life has been smooth and uneventful.

"Jes, why do we have to wear these black robes, and also have to don the hood?"

Beside him, a noticeably slender woman muttered softly.

Li Qing acted as if he hadn't heard, continued walking at his pace, attentively, secretly raising his ears.

"Hey, don't cause trouble for yourself, last person who did that was eaten by the scarecrow!"

By her side, Jes sternly stopped the woman's actions, then complained: "Anna, you must understand the price we paid to come here, this isn't your palace, nor your exclusive slave venue; here we're just students, you must adjust your mindset."

"I know, I know! I'll be careful."

Anna, waving her hand somewhat impatiently.

Li Qing, who had been carefully observing, his pupils contracted sharply, his footsteps slightly paused imperceptibly, then walked forward as if nothing had happened.

He just saw that woman named Anna, below her trailing black robe exposed a white tentacle with suckers!!
