Chapter 127: Qiang Feng

Ding Yuan thought he had heard wrongly. He looked at Gao Ming silently. “Even big ghosts don’t dare to challenge the rules. As a human, you want to set up the new rules?! Are you insane?”

“Any rules require the executioners. Once we kill all the executioners, the rules will be obsolete, right?” Gao Ming’s thought was simple. But when he said these, he lowered his voice. He was worried that his image in Yan Xizhi’s eyes would be ruined.

“That’s theoretically correct.” Ding Yuan grabbed Gao Ming’s wrist. He could feel his pulse and warmth. “You are alive.”

“Naturally. Those swapped students are living in the shadows. They don’t dare to violate the rules.” Gao Ming rolled his eyes. “We’ll start with the blue rooms. If this is inconvenient for you, I’ll do it.”

Ding Yuan let go of Gao Ming’s wrist, and his wrinkles softened. He seemed to see hope in Gao Ming. In the anomalies, humans were always very passive, including seniors like Ding Yuan. Everyone’s focus was on how to minimise the damage to get more results. Very few actively tried to attack the anomalies.

“To be able to take root in a complicated district like Li San, your centre’s way of training is impressive.” Ding Yuan seemed to misunderstand something, and Gao Ming was too lazy to explain.

Yan Xizhi heard the words training and lifted her head to say, “Teacher Ding, are you two exchanging educational methods?”

“Situ An might come at any moment. We’re discussing how to protect the school.” Ding Yuan was still a bit afraid of Yan Xizhi. He showed great respect to the old lady.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

“Protecting school is my responsibility. You should focus on the students. Do not let them be influenced by the changing environment.” Headmistress Yan thought of something. She searched among the shelves. A few minutes later, she walked over with a wooden box. “These are all the things most precious to me. You should share them with the other teachers to calm them.”

“Thank you, headmistress.” It was not Ding Yuan’s first time taking stuff from Yan Xizhi. He gave Gao Ming a look and carried the wooden box to the back of the shelf.

“Each letter represents a blessing. Items of purity like these are very rare in the shadow world. They will be very useful.” Gao Ming checked everything and found a group picture. The last batch of students, led by Yan Xizhi, finally graduated. She took a group picture with the kids. It was probably the last picture of her alive.

Shadows moved in the picture. The picture was colourful. Only the old lady was in black-and-white. It felt like she had given all the colours to her students.

“I’ll take this.”

Gao Ming and Ding Yuan stayed in the storeroom until 3 am. Five more Huan Men investigators came to join them. Of the entire east city centre, only these people managed to escape from Situ An.

“Captain, Bi Liao is hunting us with the others! Everyone from the east city listens to Situ An’s orders. We’ve been made into the traitors.” Qiang Feng was the leader of Team 1 at Huan Men. “Team 2 has been massacred by Li Biao. Xiao Fei is captured, and only a few of us are left from Team 1.”

“You didn’t expose the existence of headmistress Yan, right?”

“No.” Qiang Feng shook her head. “Yan Xizhi is our investigation. Other than Team 1, no one knows about her.”

“Good.” Ding Yuan removed the teacher id. “We are in open conflict with Situ An. We should stop using the Id. In the future, we’ll move around the territory of the big ghosts.”

“But not all big ghosts are as kind as Headmistress Yan. Some big ghosts are extremely cruel. Other students won’t go near them. They can openly violate the rules.” Qiang Feng didn’t understand Captain Ding’s confidence.

“You don’t need to worry about that.” Ding Yuan shared Gao Ming’s plan with Qiang Feng. Qiang Feng had zero confidence in Gao Ming.

“I am used to being alone.” Gao Ming rejected Ding Yuan directly. “The headquarters might send in more investigators. Your main responsibility is to tell them the truth and expose Situ An.”
