Chapter 617
NO. 198: This is what it's like to be a guardian habitually.
Meteor, this is a grand English term.
It can be translated as: shooting star, meteorite.
Of course, Aomo actually knows her only unilaterally; knowing her, he puts quotation marks around the horse girl regarding race.
More clearly, she is called Meteor, not Meteorite.
Sniper operative: Meteor, from Rhodes Island Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., which also has another operative codenamed Meteorite.
And Miss Meteor is also a fellow townspeople with Majialie Lingguang who appeared on TV before, and with Miss Zuofeya who had brief communication, and also a member of the Kuranta/Kuranta race.
It is worth mentioning that the Kuranta race encompasses not only more than half of humanoid groups with horse traits, but its very name also means 'running' in Esperanto.
Those with horse ears and horse tails are indeed good at running.
Thus, female Kuranta in this world are often conflated with the horse girl group.
But frankly, these two also have a most obvious way to distinguish for a specific target group,
One of the most common features: 'Meteor'.
This is already a proprietary term in the horse racing field, used to describe the white patch on a horse's nose bridge.
Horse girls' hair more or less shows a speckle pattern similar to 'Meteor', and also hair colors corresponding to horse coat colors; it can be said to be a thorough anthropomorphization of horse racing.
Just like the symbol of Ludaofu Xiangzheng, the crescent moon on the forehead of the Eastern Sea Emperor, the Sirius symbol's forehead speckle, and a wisp of white cowlick on the head of the Manchester Chazuo……
These are all brought by the horse racing soul, distinguishing them from ordinary girls' hair color changes.
Of course, not all horse girls have such a distinctive trait.
Ailisuzhi and Meipu Bohan, as well as Zhenjiling and Aimu Zhiji, have no similar hair color abnormality.
Pure hair color makes them not seem so unconventional, and also makes it hard to distinguish them when they stand together with the Kuranta.
Because the latter basically don't consider these.
Kuranta groups are mostly like people with horse traits, not particularly emphasizing the equine biological aspect; among them, Miss Meteor is undoubtedly an exception.
You wouldn't expect it, but she really has a 'Meteor'!
Based on this alone, it's not hard to guess that during her activities at Telesen, many people would mistake her for a senior schoolmate/horse girl who chose to apply for a school position after graduation.
It's like that; although Telesen has achieved a high degree of autonomy for the students, aside from those few in the student council, other students participating in campus work still have to have a large part of the work shouldered in rotation by outsourced campus workers who are adults.
This includes the library management handled by the Desert Hero, and naturally also the General Affairs Committee position held by Aimu Zhiji.
After all, compared to the librarian, the General Affairs Committee's work is more complex and burdensome.
Not only must it provide logistical service support for the school's teaching, research, and the work, study, and life of faculty, staff, and students.
Furthermore, it must formulate plans for the reform and development of logistical work.
It also must be responsible for building the logistical system's organization in terms of ideology, organization, work style, and institutions, and assist the student council in selecting, appointing, evaluating, and managing the heads of each service center within the logistical system.
Finally, there is also the stream of work assigned by the school——
——How could Aimu Zhiji possibly handle this?
Just having her do ideological work is already bizarre!
Although according to Zhenjiling's information, Miss Aimu Zhiji indeed has experience caring for people and can speak stern yet reasonable words, but serving as General Affairs Committee is still too much of a stretch for her.
This is entirely a position that involves intersections with all the college's departments, inevitably requiring handoffs and communication; you'd hardly imagine Aimu Zhiji willing to take it, and the most plausible explanation is that someone 'played a sneaky move' on her.
To be frank, from the perspective of someone taking the position, it's quite a lucrative post.
But for the horse girls who focus on running, this is a position they completely do not want to take, yet it indeed must exist.
Another horse girl General Affairs Committee member, Shengye Didus, is indeed a talent skilled at coordinating and directing work, most likely the result of volunteering herself.
But to say that Aimu Zhiji is the same as her would be somewhat rash.
Rather than wanting the position herself, it seems more like she was put onto it by 80, or perhaps someone pushed her onto it with self-indulgent 'good intentions'——
——You'd say so, right? Miss Zhenjiling, who wants Aimu Zhiji to change her personality.
Aimu Zhiji not resigning probably shows her genuinely good temperament.
After all, if it were merely the logistics department, that would be fine to say, but the General Affairs Committee is undoubtedly a leadership position.
It is well known that Dubi is not fit to be a leader.
The result of forcing oneself into the role is to torment oneself and also torment others.
She ought to have lasted only a short while, but according to Aomo's information, she has already served a full semester as General Affairs Committee.
At that time, the demon who gathered this information, upon looking over the list of General Affairs Committee members, merely complained and marveled at how unbelievable it was, without paying too much attention.
But now a certain speculation has vaguely arisen.
At the moment when his series of demands to narrow down the scope caused the AI of Gaodufen Arab to finally point out the list of informants, he realized there was a blind spot in his previous investigative line of thought.
That is——given Aimu Zhiji's deteriorating running and study conditions, her being able to persist to the present, even not having been dismissed from the General Affairs Committee work, cannot be explained merely by perseverance.
Perseverance cannot solve the gaps in ability and time.
Miss Shengye Didus, though being the same type of intellectual-logical stream athlete as Miss Pipa Chen Guang and skilled at this kind of work, is also a student and therefore lacks the capacity to take over her colleagues' work.
Moreover, the handover of work itself requires sufficiently detailed communication; otherwise it will just be both parties cursing at each other with no good outcome.
Therefore, the person in question ought to have a friendliness toward Aimu Zhiji comparable to that of Zhenjiling, while also possessing time and ability, and even ought to master information from aspects different from those of Zhenjiling.
Zhenjiling, who interacts with Aimu Zhiji day in and day out, grasps only everyday information, whereas the other party ought to know Aimu Zhiji's attitude toward work.
These two can complement each other, and it is not unlikely that the other party actually also knows some of Aimu Zhiji's private affairs.
Thus at this moment, the words spoken by Miss Kulantā, whom Aomo is gazing at, referring to Aimu Zhiji.
"What a cosmic miracle?" Aimo politely rose, gestured with his hand to the opposite seat, while watching the other guide at the counter walk away, then turned back and asked, "What does this mean again? Miss Liuxing."
Liuxing is merely a callsign, but it cannot be ruled out that it might indeed be her real name.
Among the Luodao staff there are plenty who work under their real names, and given the varying levels of civilization in that world's ecology, some residents can indeed have no surname, only a given name.
Aomo's memories of that other world are not fully comprehensive on this point, but since the other party's ID tag also bears Liuxing, the form of address is unproblematic.
"I think the Lin Dun trainer should know more about this than I do," Miss Kulanta, who could almost be confused with a horse girl, sat down opposite Aomo, showing a subtle smile of 'limited knowledge', "I vaguely recall that child saying, 'The human body is made of cosmic stardust.'"
"Indeed, there is such a saying," although what the other party said is vague, but since this saying is already well-known, Aomo can still serve as a brief elaboration, "'Hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, calcium, iron… the many elements that make up the human body are themselves produced by stellar explosions or collisions.'"
"Of course, one cannot say that such trace elements don't exist in the universe, but without such a sufficiently violent process, it is impossible to gather that large amount of elements all at once."
"That's about right; you indeed understand this better than I do." Liu Xing nodded, with a look of sudden realization.
"As long as you know that she was truly a 'forest keeper' in the past, living in the forests, galloping across the plains, and never having been exposed to any astronomical knowledge, you can understand why she can repeat a few sentences yet remains completely clueless."
"Liu Xing's callsign is probably just some kind of wish."
"If you learn more, you can also do it," he pointed at the book in front of him, Aomo gave a helpless smile, "'But indeed, the human body is a particle aggregate that has come down in energy level from stars—this saying is certainly romantic, but you chose to meet here; you probably aren't just looking to pick up this knowledge on the side, are you?"
"Of course not, it's just because this place is quiet," at this time only the horse girls from the college department and a few trainers come here.
"I can see you're well suited to the work at the academy."
"Yes, but what I want to say is, it was that child Zhi Ji who taught me to notice this."
"Is she still skipping class?"
"... your point of focus..."
"It's quite strange; many people say that."
"No, I just heard those words and felt that seeing you was indeed the right choice."a>vas>div>Scan the code to download Red Sleeve Union Xiangxiang, offering benefits for new users: limited-time full-site free reading. div>div>div>
