During the conversation between Cheng Sui and Angers, the blood finally filled the quartz glass tube.
"Puff~~"
White steam spewed from the blood drawing machine, and the device restraining Cheng Sui also retracted into the machine.
The School Works Department staff immediately came up to wipe the needle mark on Cheng Sui's wrist with an iodophor cotton swab, but they searched for a long time and couldn't find where the needle mark was.
"I'll do it myself, thank you." Cheng Sui took the cotton swab, casually pressed it against his wrist, nodded to Nivard and the others, and smiled in thanks.
Nivard rubbed his eyes. His vision was still 5.0 during his physical examination last month, so why couldn't he even see a needle mark now?
Cheng Sui pretended to cover the needle mark on his wrist with an iodophor cotton swab. For such a negligible small wound, with his Uzumaki Clan physique, healing was instantaneous.
"Thank you for your trouble. The blood sample test results should be available within a week, and you will be notified then." Angers smiled and patted Cheng Sui's shoulder. "I heard from Mans that you contacted him. I wish you a smooth internship in Egypt."
[You performed brilliantly in the Jonin test. The Third Hokage praised you greatly and also issued a mission to you: assist Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi in a special mission to the Land of Wind.]
[Mission Complete: Successfully passed the Jonin test]
[Mission Completion Reward: Summoning Technique: Enma, Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique]
A more complex memory than any previous mission completion flooded Cheng Sui's mind.
In the original Hokage story, the Third Hokage truly deserved to be called the Professor of Ninjutsu. The Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique alone involved the fusion of many Ninjutsu.
At the same time, Cheng Sui felt a faint connection with something in his mind. Combining this with the system's prompt, he could infer that it should be his summoning contract with Enma.
Cheng Sui had discovered long ago that the Ninjutsu and Taijutsu rewards given by the system were not just simple instructions on how to use them, but truly allowed him to learn the skill from scratch.
For example, the Rasengan rewarded for defeating Caesar: the system not only transmitted the method of using Rasengan but also granted Cheng Sui powerful Chakra control abilities. Now, Cheng Sui could easily attach Chakra to the soles of his feet.
It was the same with the Gentle Fist before. The system not only provided the techniques for using Gentle Fist but also the physical enhancements that came from practicing Gentle Fist.
This was also the case with the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique.
The Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique was an improvement derived from Senju Tobirama's Shadow Clone Jutsu, a reapplication of advanced Shadow Clone Jutsu skills. Cheng Sui learning this Ninjutsu also meant he simultaneously learned the Shadow Clone Jutsu... It was lunchtime, but the school cafeteria wasn't very crowded.
After all, many people at Cassell College were young masters and rich young ladies. They preferred to drive luxury cars to a highly-rated local restaurant for a meal. The cafeteria was more for ordinary people like Cheng Sui.
Cheng Sui carried his tray to an empty seat.
On the tray was a sweet and sour salad, paired with mashed potatoes and salmon cake, and in another bowl was clam chowder.
Cheng Sui looked around. For some reason, ever since leaving the stadium, he felt like someone was following him, but he hadn't found anyone along the way.
"That's odd, am I just too tired lately and hallucinating?"
Just as Cheng Sui was wondering if he was hallucinating, a gasp came from the aisle not far away.
"Ow, why aren't you watching where you're going? This is a new dress I bought yesterday! I'm reporting you for harassment!"
A female student yelled, pointing at the male student in front of her. Cheng Sui saw a large puddle of cola spilled on the girl's white dress, standing out prominently on the white fabric.
Cheng Sui shifted his gaze to the culprit.
A tall, strong man hung his head, holding a bottle of cola in his left hand and a camera in his right, apologizing fawningly to the girl. His school uniform looked like it hadn't been washed in days; Cheng Sui could almost smell the sour stench coming from him.
Isn't that... Fingel!
The camera in his hand... Was he the one following me all this time?
"Apologies are useless. Either pay me now, or I'll sue you for harassment, and we'll see each other in court." The girl did not accept Fingel's fawning apology, her attitude firm.
"No, no, no, big sister, oh no, junior, I was just taking pictures just now, I really didn't notice and bumped into you. Please be generous..."
"What, taking pictures!?" The girl's voice rose eight octaves as she stared at the camera in Fingel's hand. "You were secretly photographing me? Let me see your camera!"
The girl made a move to snatch the camera from Fingel's hand.
"No, this absolutely cannot happen." Fingel desperately protected the camera, his burly body rolling like a bear. The sour smell emanating from his flapping clothes almost made the girl vomit.
"How long has it been since you showered, ugh!" The girl finally couldn't resist Fingel's bio-weapon and started to dry heave. "Help! Someone's harassing me and secretly taking pictures of me!"
The girl's voice attracted a large crowd to stop and watch. Fingel stood in the middle of the crowd, as helpless as a 188-centimeter lamb.
Cheng Sui sat in his seat, watching all this expressionlessly. He didn't want to get involved in such matters, and besides, he knew Fingel was secretly photographing him, so he had even less reason to help him. He wasn't a soft-hearted do-gooder.
[Today, you were strolling through the streets of Konoha as usual when you suddenly encountered Might Guy being falsely accused of fraud. The honest and upright Might Guy was unable to defend himself, and now you need to step forward to help him out of this predicament.]
[Mission: Help Might Guy escape his predicament]
[Mission Completion Reward: Eight Gates (First Four Gates)]
Cheng Sui took a bite of the salmon cake.
So delicious!
Seeing the system prompt appear at the bottom of his vision, Cheng Sui stood up and walked towards the crowd.
"Everyone, please move aside. Let me explain, this is a misunderstanding." Cheng Sui pushed through the crowd, walked to Fingel's side, and waved to attract everyone's attention.
"Misunderstanding? Who are you...!?" The girl originally wanted to loudly question who Cheng Sui thought he was, but after seeing Cheng Sui's appearance, she obediently shut her mouth.
She might not recognize Fingel, but she definitely recognized Cheng Sui and knew that Cheng Sui was someone she couldn't afford to offend.
"This is a misunderstanding. I originally wanted to invite Senior Fingel to help me take candid photos, but Senior Fingel was too engrossed and didn't notice this..." Cheng Sui glanced at the girl and continued, "...this young lady, and accidentally spilled cola on her. As for secretly taking pictures, that's even more impossible. Senior Fingel, please show the photos."
Fingel, like a frost-bitten eggplant, listlessly opened his camera and showed the photos he had taken to the crowd.
The onlookers curiously craned their necks, all wanting to see what Fingel had actually photographed.
The camera indeed contained photos of Cheng Sui, but the shooting angle... Everyone looked at Cheng Sui, then at Fingel.
This shooting angle clearly looked like secret photography. Who takes candid photos by hiding behind a pillar and photographing someone's back!
