During his time in college, Jake had the habit of exercising early in the morning. Even after graduation, he didn't give up this habit. Since he lived close to Princeton University, he would usually go to the campus to exercise in the mornings.
When Jake arrived at the campus, there were already a few people exercising, but not many. Among college students, there weren't too many who could stick to exercising early in the morning, and since it was still early and not yet the start of classes, there were even fewer people.
Jake stretched his limbs a bit and started running around the campus. While running, his mind couldn't help but think about the previous space he had visited and wondered if he could use the skills he learned in that space in reality, just like he could open attribute panels and backpack pages.
Thinking about it, Jake decided to try it out. He used his only known skill, Appraisal, on a student running ahead of him. Name: Eric, sophomore at Princeton University's Civil Engineering School, 21 years old, 186 cm tall, weighing 160 pounds, a key player on the college basketball team, interested in basketball, pick up hot chicks, from Province M, with both parents at home...
After using the Appraisal skill on the student in front of him, Jake indeed saw a series of information appearing in front of him. Moreover, he also discovered that this displayed information was only visible to him; other people couldn't see it at all. This meant he didn't have to worry about his secrets being revealed to others.
"I didn't expect there to be so much information," Jake murmured to himself. That series of information provided a clear introduction to the student's situation. Through the Appraisal skill, Jake had gained a lot of knowledge about Eric, including his interests, family background, and more. The Appraisal skill was truly useful, and its effectiveness was remarkable, providing detailed information.
Just as Jake marveled at this, a familiar and beautiful figure passed by him, exuding a refreshing fragrance that involuntarily made him sniff his nose. It was her! Jake's eyes lit up. He was already very familiar with the figure in the white sportswear ahead of him. Whenever Jake came here to exercise, he would always see her. Sometimes, he would intentionally come early to make sure he wouldn't miss her.
Of course, although Jake was familiar with her figure, he had never approached her or struck up a conversation. He would only glance at her a few times while exercising.
Jake knew that she was a student at Princeton University, but he didn't know any other information about her. Unable to suppress his curiosity, Jake used the Appraisal skill on that figure. Name: Wendy, junior at Princeton University's School of Economics and Management, living in the capital city, Peak of Excellence...
(Peak of Excellence:It signifies the state where a person, object, or a particular field has reached the highest point or level. It can be used to describe an individual who has achieved the pinnacle of success, skills, or accomplishments in their career. It can also refer to something reaching the highest level in a specific domain.)
Is that all? Jake looked at the few words on the virtual screen in front of him, which were noticeably different from the detailed information he obtained about Eric. Jake was slightly stunned, not understanding why he received so little information. Could it be that his Appraisal skill had failed this time? That shouldn't be the case!
While Jake was still lost in thought, he suddenly noticed that Wendy, who had just passed by him, had stopped and turned to look at him.
Jake once again saw Wendy's divine appearance, her delicate facial features cleverly combined, instantly bringing to mind the phrase "enchanting beauty." Coupled with her graceful figure and unique charm, just one glance was enough to make one involuntarily become infatuated and unable to break free.
Jake felt a little guilty because he had just used the Appraisal skill on Wendy, which could be seen as an invasion of privacy and impolite behavior.
"Wait!" Just as Jake was about to act as if nothing had happened and pass by Wendy, she suddenly spoke up. Jake instinctively stopped. Wendy took a few steps and stood in front of Jake, looking directly into his eyes. She asked, "What did you do to me just now?"
"What?" Jake looked at her with confusion, and it wasn't an act. He genuinely didn't understand the meaning behind her words.
"Just now, behind my back, what did you do?" Wendy asked again.
"I didn't do anything," Jake shook his head and then added somewhat embarrassedly, "I just looked at you for a moment."
"Is that all?" Wendy frowned, looking somewhat skeptical. Wendy was well aware of the attractiveness her appearance held, whether on campus or in the streets outside. She was used to being noticed by others. However, just now, Wendy clearly felt that the gaze behind her was different from the usual. It seemed as if that gaze could see right through her with just one look. She had only seen such eyes in a few older relatives who were not ordinary people.
However, when Wendy turned around to look behind her, she found only an ordinary person, a young person of similar age to herself. This left her feeling puzzled. How could such a young person have that kind of gaze? It didn't make sense. Could it be that she was mistaken, or perhaps the gaze just now wasn't from him? However, besides him, there was no one else behind her. The closest people to her were twenty or thirty meters away.
"Just that," Jake nodded. It wasn't a lie; he really had only looked at her for a moment, and he just happened to use the Appraisal skill at the same time.
Wendy nodded slightly, her expression unchanged, making it difficult to discern her thoughts. Just when Jake thought she was about to leave, Wendy suddenly spoke again, "You're not a student at our university, right?"
"Well, I'm not. I just live nearby," Jake replied truthfully.
Princeton University didn't prohibit non-students from entering, especially in places like the campus grounds. So, Jake didn't mind if she knew he wasn't a student. However, he was curious about how she could tell that he wasn't a student at the university. Although he had graduated a year ago and gained some life experience, based on appearances alone, he didn't look much different from a college student. In fact, some of the students at the university seemed even more youthful than him.
Wendy glanced at Jake without saying anything, then turned and walked away, leaving Jake perplexed. Jake didn't dwell on this question for long. He and Wendy weren't acquainted, but he had noticed her beauty and often saw her on the campus grounds, which made him look at her more. As for what might happen, Jake hadn't really thought about it.
