Chapter 187: Finish What You Start

Zhang Zian was dizzy.

Oh no! I am not here to fill out a form!

About 40 years old and normal looking, Professor Wei was pretty short and skinny. His clothing was nothing fancy. Wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, he was strong enough to drag Zhang Zian to his desk.

Zhang Zian wanted to get out, but found that he was trapped by an iron net. He sat back and tried to increase the traction between his feet and the floor. However, it didn’t help.

He turned his head and looked at the guy who wanted to buy Fina, hoping to see what he had to say about that teacher.

The guy looked at him with an “I-am-sorry” face, yet there was some unspeakable pleasure in his eyes. He said, “Professor Wei has been waiting for this moment for three years. Last year, someone wanted to enroll in his Master’s program, but it was a girl who could not stand the rough life doing research in the wild. She gave up eventually. You’d better be prepared!”

Zhang Zian was dragged to Professor Wei’s desk. Ignoring his rejection, Professor Wei gave him a pen and application form.

“Here, fill in your name, age, hometown, ID card number, undergraduate school, gender… well, I can fill out that one for you…”

“Wait wait wait wait wait…” Zhang Zian was so nervous that he couldn’t speak.

He threw away the pen. This was crazy!

Professor Wei was pushy. “Why do you want to wait? If you are worried about enrollment, I assure you will be accepted as long as you pass the entrance exam. Come on, sign here. Starting tomorrow, you may come every day and I will have a special cram course to help you pass the entrance exam. No matter what major you were in as an undergrad, I am sure you will be accepted into my program.”

It was obvious enough that as long as Zhang Zian signed the form, Professor Wei would tell him pretty much everything that was going to be on the exam.

The pushier Professor Wei got, the more uncomfortable Zhang Zian became. It was suspicious. Why did Professor Wei have such a difficult time recruiting students for his graduate program?

Honestly, Zhang Zian really couldn’t sign this paper because he had to take care of the pet shop.

The guy who wanted to buy Fina laughed. “Professor Wei, I forgot to tell you something. This guy has a pet shop. I found the ancient Egyptian cat from his store.”

“Alright, good luck! Professor Wei, I will come by another time.” He left the office.

Professor Wei grabbed Zhang Zian’s collar!

Scared, Zhang Zian looked at Professor Wei and found that he was so excited that his eyes turned red. Professor Wei screamed, “You have an ancient Egyptian cat? Where did you get it? Tell me! Tell me!”

What a weirdo!

Zhang Zian almost cried. He only wanted to capture the fourth Elfin. Never had he wanted to deal with this crazy teacher!

He turned around to look at Old Time Tea. Old Time Tea jumped up to another desk and looked at the biology textbooks curiously. It didn’t seem to notice that Zhang Zian was in trouble.

Old Time Tea didn’t help because it didn’t feel a threat from Professor Wei. If it appeared all of a sudden, it might make things even more complicated. After looking at the books, it wandered to the skeleton models and started observing those.

Zhang Zian used his trick again. He pointed outside, “Look! A plane!”

Old Time Tea and Professor Wei both looked out.

Zhang Zian struggled out from Professor Wei’s grip and rushed to the office door, opened the door and said, “Don’t come over! I will scream if you do.”

Professor Wei realized he fell for Zhang Zian’s trick. He wasn’t angry, but said, “Please don’t! You don’t have to be scared. I won’t hurt you. Come back in and shut the door.”

“I am not stupid,” Zhang Zian said. “What is it? Tell me directly. If you are not going to tell me, I am leaving now.”

Professor Wei paused for a few minutes, sighed and sat down, “Maybe I am being too pushy, but I didn’t mean anything bad! Please trust me. I only wanted to ask you two things… First, do you really have an ancient Egyptian cat?”

Zhang Zian thought for a second. Fina was exposed in the media. It was even on TV. He knew he couldn’t lie about it so he said, “I do have a cat, but I am not sure if it is an ancient Egyptian cat. Anyways, no matter what breed it is, it is my cat, not yours.”

Professor Wei fixed his glasses and said, “Do you know what it means to rediscover an extinct animal? It is huge!”

“I know it is huge but don’t you dare steal it from me. I am telling you. I can let it go anytime.” Zhang Zian started being firm.

Professor Wei stood up. Zhang Zian almost left.

“Let it go? You can’t do that!” Professor Wei screamed.

Zhang Zian emphasized, “I am serious. I’d rather let her go than have her go through pain being tested in a lab. Try me if you don’t believe me.” He had to stop Professor Wei’s thoughts of having Fina. Otherwise, Fina would be in big trouble.

It worked. Professor Wei sat down and said, “You can’t do this… You can’t do this…”

“I can because it is my cat,” Zhang Zian said.

Professor Wei thought for a few minutes and said, “Okay. If there is one, there might be another. It takes more than one to reproduce… Can you tell me where you got the ancient Egyptian cat?”

Zhang Zian asked, “Is this your second question?”

Professor Wei was embarrassed, “Well, this is the second small question from the first big question.”

Zhang Zian stared at him and said, “I can tell you, but you will have to answer my question.”

Professor Wei was confident. “You don’t have to ask. I will tell you everything that is in the exam.”

What the f***?

“The guy who just left, who is he? What is his name? What is he here for?” Zhang Zian asked.

Professor Wei opened his mouth, then stopped and said, “That is three questions.”

“They are three small questions from my first big question,” Zhang Zian paid him back.

They stared at each other for a long time. Both realized they had to stop.

“Okay. You can ask me three questions and I can ask you three,” Professor Wei said.
