"Principal, actually I'm not someone who particularly likes being in the spotlight. How about we just skip the speech under the flag next week?" Lin Li tentatively suggested at this moment.
Saying this in front of all the teachers and students of the school is really too much for a seventeen-year-old boy.
It's more embarrassing than telling the whole class about the dream I just had of being embraced left and right.
Headache, Principal Wang is really having a headache now.
If Lin Li hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten.
Now, all the original plans have been disrupted.
Should the public account still post? Should the announcement be made? Should interviews still be arranged?
After doing all this, can I really make progress on the path to promotion, and not become a laughing stock among friends?
Thought I was being ruthless, but now it seems like I just made a huge mess.
Damn, why did I use the broadcast to call out Lin Li just now? Didn't expect I'd regret it this fast! Now students from first and second year are probably all curious about what this 'Lin Li' classmate did. If I had known, I would have quietly asked Xue Jian to bring Lin Li over.
"Since you're feeling embarrassed, I definitely respect your wishes. If you really don't want to go on stage, let's just drop it." Principal Wang slid down the pole, nodding with a smile.
Is the principal scared? It seems like he doesn't want to see that scene even more than I do, so I'm not afraid then!
"If you treat me as a statesman, I will surely repay in kind! It's okay, Principal! Since you think it's necessary, how could I care about my own face, I'll take on this speech!" Lin Li said loudly, moved.
Principal: "?"
Who the hell needs that, and who the hell treats you like a statesman.
Don't understand when there's no need to be sensible!
"No no no no no—" The principal quickly waved his hand, "I checked the weather forecast, and next Monday's morning assembly will probably be canceled. We can talk about this later, later."
Man, even if it doesn't rain next Monday, the morning assembly must be canceled, put it off until there's no morning assembly this semester, or even until my term is over.
"No, I want to speak!" Lin Li's voice was strong and powerful.
"No, you don't want to speak!" The principal's voice was no weaker than his.
Because of the close distance, Yangliang could see Lin Li's slight smile.
This kid is indeed causing trouble on purpose, but Yangliang feels even more sympathy for Lin Li, always playing this role to hide his true heart, it must be tiring, right?
Lin Li got goosebumps because of this look, why is Yangliang still playing the gentle and mature male act.
Sister Sun, why don't you just go along with him.
"To prevent Lin Tongxue from possible retaliation afterward, this matter is not suitable to be brought to the forefront for now." Sun Ying spoke at this moment, finally saving the sweating Principal Wang.
"In that case, it's a pity, but our Nansang Middle School will definitely fully cooperate with the police's arrangements." Saying it's a pity, but the principal, with a smile as wide as a Nike swoosh, wiped the sweat from his forehead and heaved a long sigh of relief.
Then Sun Ying turned her gaze to Lin Li:
"Lin Tongxue, due to our publicity needs, we still need to take a few photos of you, and your case will be recorded, um, but rest assured, in the article to be published, your image will be pixelated, and you'll be referred to with a pseudonym, also... we'll only briefly describe the part where you collected evidence and reported it."
As long as it isn't said that Lin Li was one of the guests that day, those people wouldn't suspect Lin Li even if they were released.
Of course, the main reason is that the Demon Suppression Bureau can't afford to lose face like this either.
"Okay." Lin Li nodded, "But can the pseudonym be Xiaoli?"
"Ah? Why?" Sun Ying was a bit curious.
"Because my nickname is Li Feiyu." Lin Li said earnestly.
"That's not a problem, I'll mention it." Sun Ying nodded nonchalantly, then said, "But Lin Tongxue, we need you to help us take two photos now, one of you holding the banner, and another one with the bonus, please cooperate."
"Sure."
Lin Li nodded, taking the banner from Yangliang, shaking it open on the coffee table.
[Anti-Pornography Vanguard]
Lin Li: "..."
Under Yellow Heaven, I didn't mean to betray you.
The principal, who initially thought of asking if he could join the group photo, was glad he hadn't spoken up yet.
"It's a double-sided banner, if you don't like it, there's another side." Yangliang said at this moment.
The back says [Heroic Youth].
The principal heaved a sigh of relief, glad there was an alternative, even an idiot would know which one is more fitting.
"Let's stick with Anti-Pornography Vanguard." Lin Li immediately flipped it back over.
Principal: "?"
Damn, there's really an idiot.
Lin Li actually just thought heroic youth sounded too ordinary, and he'd be pixelated anyway, with his name changed to Xiaoli, holding the Anti-Pornography Vanguard banner looked cooler.
Principal Wang pondered how his school nurtured a talent like this.
Xue Jian was even more puzzled as to how there was such a student under his charge.
Sun Ying didn't mind, fighting pornography was one of their duties, it was just a title, nothing embarrassing, otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen to print it.
It could even draw some attention and facilitate educational promotion.
"Principal, aren't you joining the group photo?" Sun Ying thoughtfully asked Principal Wang.
The principal sheepishly waved his hand: "I'm more indifferent to fame and fortune, I'll just help take the picture, Teacher Xue, why don't you stand next to Lin Tongxue?"
"I'm also indifferent to fame and fortune, I'll just be a second perspective." Xue Jian firmly refused.
So only the two Demon Suppression Envoys could stand one on each side of Lin Li.
After the banner photos were taken, it was time for the red envelope Lin Li had been looking forward to.
Damn, 3699!
Three days ago, this could get one imperial-level service at the Light Noble Health Club!
A whole group of ten Spring Breeze Elves (Li Kui replicas)!
"3300 is the bonus we applied for, the remaining 399 is your own capital." Sun Ying explained.
"Thank you very much." Lin Li gave an extremely sincere smile.
After the photos were taken, Sun Ying handed over another red envelope and said:
"Besides these, this is a supermarket card, but specific goods, it's all listed, you can go to the designated supermarket to exchange for daily necessities like oil, rice, and flour. It's also part of your reward, and it's an extra prize that Officer Yang specially helped you obtain, taken from his own police station's share, you can thank Officer Yang."
More money!
Lin Li doesn't really know how to cook, but such cards are really easy to offload. Even with a five percent discount, someone would take it.
"Thank you, Uncle Yang!" Hence, Lin Li sincerely thanked Yangliang separately again.
Who said the warm-hearted uncle persona of Yangliang was fake?
This is the true nature of Yangliang! If Lin Li hears this claim again in the future, Lin Li will certainly argue with that person!
