Chapter 203: New Car
"I am well aware of this matter, but it's not as simple as you think," said Song Yu, rubbing his forehead. "However, I will talk to the principal about it and try to show some willingness to make improvements."
"That would be great," replied Liang Yan. He didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer. Even though he had recently switched sides and Song Yu was supportive of him, he had to be cautious and change the subject. "An Ruosu and Su Xiao somehow managed to escape. It's hard to believe that they were not noticed."
"They took over your and Xin Ping's surveillance duty at Gathering Point 9, so they changed sides at the last moment. No one noticed for a long time," explained Song Yu.
"But didn't Xia Qing know about it either?" Liang Yan asked.
"Xia Qing..." Song Yu sighed. "The apocalypse and supernatural abilities have truly changed many people, like Xia Qing and Chen Mu. You never heard of these two before in school, did you?"
"Well..." Liang Yan hesitated. "Senior, there were rumors about you and Chen Mu..."
Song Yu chuckled. "We just met once, and later I learned a bit about him from Zhao Tong and Yang Buan."
"Then why does it seem like you know him well?"
"Do you doubt my judgment?" Song Yu asked, still smiling.
Liang Yan awkwardly laughed. "No, I'm just curious about that person."
"You've met him too. What's your impression of him?"
"Nothing special, just that he's quick to react and makes decisive moves. High-level experts like Xin Ping were defeated in no time," Liang Yan remarked with a sigh.
"Since Yang Zhan's defeat, I've been promoting him within the organization to raise awareness, but it backfired. Speaking of Xin Ping's situation, I do feel somewhat responsible," said Song Yu.Witness the debut of this chapter, unveiled through Ñôv€l--B1n.
"But that can't be blamed on you." Liang Yan rushed to defend Song Yu. "Xin Ping's temperament would have caused trouble sooner or later."

After driving away the Qingbei members, Dong Junwei instructed the staff on duty to increase patrols and not to be careless.
Chen Mu thought of something and called Tang Jing to go outside again.
The ability user named Wu Zimu had left the toad behind and was taken away by the Qingbei members. Chen Mu didn't know how serious his injuries were.
At this moment, the semi-adult toad, which was probably not fully grown yet, had been played with by Xiao Huang and Xiao Bai to the point of no movement, and its life and death were uncertain.
Cats were not as interested in lifeless things, and perhaps it was because of Du Jiajia, but they showed no interest in eating the toad either.
Chen Mu felt a bit sorry for the two cats. Since befriending Du Jiajia, they now judged food based on appearances.
"Tong Bin's ability is a bit hard to understand, but the pit on this door is his masterpiece," Chen Mu pointed at the shallow pit created by Tong Bin.
"I actually considered using the water from the water tank to put out the fire, but the water outlet was not in the right position, and the water volume wasn't enough," Chen Mu said.
"That's the problem."
"That's why reserving some firefighting water is necessary," Tang Jing said.
"But how can we do it concretely?"
"For example, build a large water tank on the roof," Tang Jing suggested.
"On the roof?" Chen Mu recalled that Tang Jing had previously mentioned installing a solar water heater on the roof. Now, with the water tank, this project was becoming bigger and bigger.
"It's a two-in-one approach. Create an open water tank and use rainwater to replenish it. Not only can we extinguish fires in critical moments, but with such a large water volume, it can also scatter all the enemies at the gate," Tang Jing explained.
"It's a good idea, but the project is too massive, and how do we get up on the roof?" Chen Mu asked.
"Let's take it step by step," Tang Jing smiled.
...
The vehicle modification project interrupted by Qingbei resumed in the afternoon.
Adding tracks and installing engines were both technical tasks that required precision and craftsmanship, keeping Chen Mu fully occupied.
On the seventh day, the sky was still dimly lit.
Wei Dalei was sleeping soundly when Chen Mu woke him up abruptly.
"What's going on, boss? It's not even daylight yet," Wei Dalei rubbed his eyes and looked outside the window.
"If you want to continue sleeping, leave the debut of the new car to He Ying," Chen Mu said.
Wei Dalei instantly became alert and jumped off the bed.
