The arrest of the girl being suspected as Shadow Emblem's Master stirred up controversy.
Before that, the Golden Badge killers which had been sent to No. 90 High School had been killed. Now students had come for an exchange meet at No. 89 High School... In the end, this Golden Badge killer who wanted to take advantage of the exchange meet and cause trouble had been detained before the first step of the mission had been carried out.
The most important thing was that the man who had detained the girl was the elder brother of one of the students at No. 90 High School...
That damn No. 90 High School again...
Most recalled that in events related to Shadow Emblem, the General Republic of the Cultivation Police Department had launched a code red to investigate, but for years, there hadn't been any progress. In the end, less than a month after the start of the semester, there had been one breakthrough after the other at this seemingly normal high school... something was up!
As a result of this incident, people once again started to ask questions.
Why did the beautiful 34D maiden become so suddenly bloodthirsty and a murderer? A planned operation had been foiled and failed? Was there morality or a lack of humanity behind this? Or a showdown for revenge? As such, these questions were in people's minds with no possible answer being given.
Until now, that female killer had yet to gain consciousness and Zhang Huoji, the person who hindered this evil attempt, had been forcibly retained to the police station an hour after... this string of events gave the impression of a premeditated plan...
To conceal Tianrui's real identity, the Yunzhou Nation's Science Conservatory in the end pointed the police to a eye dropping direction — Qinghai city's General Management of 100 Academies.
Hence, after Secretary Li Hong had come by the office that day to chew the fat for eight hours, Master Akira had just gotten home when his phone was bombarded with multiple calls.
He glanced at his phone that had a list of missed calls... And now, Secretary Hong happened to be calling...
Though he had literally spent the afternoon chatting with this old leader, against him, he had no choice but to accept...
Akira had actually learnt a lot during his years as deputy director. For instance, number one; wake up earlier than a hen and sleep later like a cat, number two; don't speak nonsense, number three; speak less than a horse does and eat less than a damn rabbit... And the last point... do! not! ever! hang up on Li Hong!
Or else... Well, you know what'll happen to our boy Akira.
Akira didn't know what this old leader wanted to talk about considering the fact they had talked all afternoon, but even so, he picked up the landline...
In this age, the landlines of phones would project holographically; once Akira picked up the phone, Li Hong's face was projected in the air.
Akira lived in the director apartment which the government specifically arranged and funded for him and directors alike. It was quite comfy and large for himself. The current government advocated an anti-corruption policy, to reflect how their staff endured hardship and wholeheartedly served the guests, all apartments hadn't expanded via the Space Expansion Skill.
However, this led to a problem. The space was somewhat small, so the holographic projection appeared bigger.
Akira couldn't help laughing, this projection of Secretary Li Hong... his nose is bigger than his d**k!
"Hello? Little Qingfeng?"
Secretary Li Hong's voice resounded on the other end of the phone and it gave Akira a shock!
Little... Little Qingfeng..?
This nickname was a little too affectionate!
What's up with Li Hong!? Does his wife know about this!
Honestly, Akira felt a little surprised and flattered. "... Yeah, good evening... It's so late, is there something old Secretary needs?"
"Little Akira, you think I couldn't tell? You're really good at pretending, are you? This afternoon in the office, you were calm and composed, it turns out you were plotting and watching in secret... It was a surprise for me, right?"
Master Akira: "???" The f**k?
"Oh don't be silly! The Master of Shadow Emblem who was recently detained by you!"
Master Akira: "!!!"
"This time, I have to chastise you for this... after all, she's a Golden Badge Assassin; even if you knew her strategy and plan beforehand, you should at least report it in advance. There were students nearby. Moreover, it was after school."
Hearing this, Akira knew what he was talking about. On his way home earlier, he received a text message from the HQ Office saying that the cultivation police department in Xuantai district had caught the Golden Badge killer suspected to be the Master of Shadow Emblem.
When he heard this, he, well, felt that this was off... why did he feel that with every development, he would be undeservedly credited with the act even if he hadn't even been present... an example would be the void invasion eleven years ago. Though, as mentioned before, he couldn't throw all this wealth and fame away...
"Secretary Hong, I..."
"It's fine, you don't need to explain! I know that you didn't want to act rashly and report to the others, so you secretly arranged for the expert to enter No. 89 High School, right?"
"..."
"Haha! Listen, I'm telling you! You've outdone yourself this time! After the preliminary interrogation, its most likely that the girl who was arrested was the younger sister of the Master of Shadow Emblem! Isn't that exciting?! Isn't that a shock!?"
"..."
"The Master of Shadow Emblem hasn't shown up yet, but I believe, with this lead, it will not be long before our nation destroys the terrorist organisation! Partner Akira... to possess such intelligence and perception at a young age... I, the old secretary, admire you dearly!"
"... Can I ask, Secretary Hong, where'd you hear this from?"
"Executive Xi of the Yunzhou Nation's Science Conservatory personally called me to explain the situation. Little Qingfeng, I know that you want to lay low, but sometimes, when you've done something good, there's no need to hide it."
Akira sucked in a breath. "..." He had no idea that he would be connected to such a popular institute...
"Little Qingfeng, who knew you had such depths in your heart..."
On the other end of the phone call, Secretary Li Hong smiled. "Everyone along with the higher-ups were discussing if they should promote you... they were worried that you may be too young to handle the next position since the higher you go the colder it gets and you tend to do things low-key. But we just carried out a public poll and we found out that most of the government officials in Qinghai city, you are at the top terms in reputation. So, rest easy! You only have to wait to be promoted!"
Master Akira: "..."
"Oh! And, remember to perform well tomorrow! I look forward to your Heaven Parting Blade Skill at the spirit sword exchange meet."
"..."
