Chapter 226 - New Security Officer

The news of the possible manipulation of the Beast Tide by Beijing University spread like wildfire across the entire Internet.

The commotion it caused was far more intense than expected.

Under the apocalypse, sacrificing one city to protect another completely touched people’s bottom line.

Yesterday, they could sacrifice He City.

Then today, could they sacrifice half of the country for the capital?

Especially when people learned that the mastermind might be Beijing University, their irrepressible anger instantly swelled to the extreme.

The reputation of Beijing University plummeted.

The matter of the Qingcheng Beast Tide being changed by someone, the consequences were actually very bad.

Because during the Beast Tide, He City and Qingcheng were neighbors. In order to quickly take over the retreating minors in Qingcheng City, He City had already exhausted all of its transport forces.

However, the sudden change in direction of the Beast Tide caught He City by surprise. The transportation resources that were originally activated were all suspended and withdrawn, but it was obviously too late.

In the end, within a short half an hour, less than one-fifth of the medical care, pregnant women, students, and other groups that were scheduled to evacuate had escaped.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Moreover, He City was a medium-sized and large-scale city with a population that was at least 200,000 higher than Qingcheng City…

No matter from the point of view of ethics, morality, or the most basic fairness, He City should not be a victim of Qingcheng City.

If it was really the work of Beijing University, then it was more than enough to sentence him to a crime against humanity.

A stone could cause a thousand ripples.

Within a day…

The scientific community, the martial arts community, the education community, and even every circle of the ordinary people launched wave after wave of verbal attacks against Beijing University.

Large-scale demonstrations began to gather.

It was rare for various social groups at home and abroad to unite and force the university to officially reveal the whole incident and decrypt the identity information of the four people.

In response to this, at the center of the storm, there was no response from the university.

It was a completely cowardly posture.

This further fueled the anger of the people.

Even within Beijing University, some societies and classes also protested.

However, unlike outside the university, this kind of resistance within the university was forcefully suppressed in just one night.

Law enforcement teams that were rarely seen on normal days were dispatched one after another, shuttling to every corner of the university.

From the students, security officers, to the management and professors, all those who discussed, participated, and opposed were all forcibly taken away.

A murderous aura enveloped the entire Beijing University.

The changes in the situation made Chen Yu and Bahuang Yao worried about Duan Ye, afraid that he would be arrested for some extreme behavior.

But in reality, Duan Ye had been behaving normally these few days. He was not disturbed by any discussions.

He was calm and steady…

…

“Good morning.”

“Good morning.”

September 24th, morning.

Class 2 gathered once again.

Standing at the empty West Gate of Beijing University, the three of them looked around at the messy flags, banners, and cans outside the school…

For some reason, they felt like they were in the real apocalypse.

Chen Yu said, “It’s too desolate.”

“There was a parade here yesterday,” Duan Ye explained. “I was at the scene. It was so exciting.”

“You participated in it?” Bahuang Yao was shocked.

“No, I just watched the show.” Duan Ye pointed forward. “See that big piece of melon seed shell? I ate it.”

Bahuang Yao: “…”

“I heard that if you wear the uniform of Beijing University now, you’ll get beaten up easily on the road.” Duan Ye shrugged. “Fortunately, we never wear it.”

Beside him, Chen Yu took out his phone and looked at the time. He walked straight out of the school gate. “Stop dawdling. Hurry up. We still have to take on compulsory missions in the afternoon.”

“Another week has passed. How time flies,” Duan Ye said with a double meaning. “I wonder if we can finish all the courses in time?”

Hearing this, Chen Yu didn’t comment. He just waved his hand and urged, “Hurry up.”

After leaving the area of Beijing University, more people started to flow in.

The three people took a taxi and soon arrived at the affiliated hospital of Beijing University.

After passing through the outpatient department and entering the inpatient area, they took the elevator to the upper level where they saw Zhang Tie eating fruits strenuously in the Intensive Care Unit.

After receiving better care from Doctor Chen, Zhang Tie woke up early this morning.

Therefore, the three people who had received the news came to visit him early.

Knock, knock, knock!

Walking to the window, Chen Yu knocked on it. “Brother Tie?”

Hearing the sound, Zhang Tie turned back and was pleasantly surprised. He put down the fruit and waved his hand.

Chen Yu and the other two immediately pushed open the door and entered.

“Brother Tie.” Duan Ye pounced towards Zhang Tie and tightly held his hands. “The school… has made you feel wronged.”

Zhang Tie: “…”

Chen Yu: “…”

“He… He’s an official now?” Zhang Tie looked at Chen Yu.

“Hmm.” Chen Yu nodded. “He’s joined the Student Union.”

“No wonder…”

“Brother Tie.” Bahuang Yao took two steps forward and carefully observed Zhang Tie’s face. “Are you still in pain?”

“I still have a headache. Doctor Chen said that I have to rest for at least half a month.” After a slight pause, Zhang Tie looked at Chen Yu. “I need at least one or two months to recover my battle strength.”

Chen Yu said, “Brother Tie, you don’t need to worry about anything else. It’s a good thing that you woke up so soon.”

Hearing this, Zhang Tie became silent for a while. He then broke free of Duan Ye’s hand and said seriously, “After I woke up, the school called me and explained the current situation.”

“What did the school say?” Chen Yu raised his eyebrows.

“At present, the school is carrying out compulsory tasks once a week. With my current look, I definitely won’t be able to participate in the battle.”

“Brother Tie.” Duan Ye stood up straight. “You mean…”

“Hmm.” Nodding, Zhang Tie revealed a faint smile. “You can apply for a new safety officer.”

“…”

After saying this, the ward immediately became quiet.

One could hear a pin drop.

“Brother Tie.” Bahuang Yao was the first to speak. “We… We can do it. You…”

“Little Yao.” Zhang Tie interrupted the girl’s words. Zhang Tie shook his head. “I know, you’re all loyal students. However, I’m a safety officer. My duty is to protect the safety of the class. Now, I’m too sick to participate in the battle. However, I have to occupy a place in the class. This is an action that harms everyone’s interests. Including mine.”

“However, as long as you rest for one month, won’t you be able to come back…”

“Maybe 2 months or more. During this period, you will always be exposed to dangers.” Zhang Tie pointed at his head. “I’m an example. Life and death are always in a split second. Before you grow up, you have to be protected by security personnel. As for me…”

After saying that, Zhang Tie slowly lay down. “Just take a rest for a while.”

Biting her lip, Bahuang Yao looked at Chen Yu pitifully.

Duan Ye also bit his lip as he looked at Chen Yu pitifully.

Chen Yu: “…”

Pah.

After giving Duan Ye a slap, Chen Yu stepped forward and nodded. “Elder Brother Tie, I got it. When I go back, I will apply for a new safety officer with the Guidance Office.”

“Fine.” Zhang Tie patted Chen Yu’s chest. “Then I will pack my things and go downstairs to lie down. I’ve already woken up. It’s too wasteful to stay here.”

“Brother Tie, don’t worry.” Duan Ye raised his fist, “When you’ve completely recovered, we will kill that safety officer and bring you back!”

Zhang Tie: “…”

Bahuang Yao: “…”

Pah!

Chen Yu slapped Duan Ye onto the ground once again. “Are you still a f*cking human?”

Two hours later.

The three people of Class 2 walked out of the hospital with complex emotions.

“From this moment on, we may never have the chance to work with Brother Tie again.” Duan Ye took a deep breath and beckoned Chen Yu with his finger. “Do you have a cigarette? Give me one.”

“Okay.” Chen Yu took out a cigarette box and took out three cigarettes. After handing one to Duan Ye, he looked at Bahuang Yao. “Do you want to have one too?”

Bahuang Yao retreated. “No… No…”

“Okay then.” Chen Yu nodded and stuffed the remaining two cigarettes into his mouth. He lit them up and exhaled gently. “There’s no acting in this world that doesn’t end. The elite class is a group of geniuses who are growing rapidly. Actually, Brother Tie is slowly losing his ability to protect us.”

“Yeah.” Duan Ye’s eyes were blurred. “The missions are getting harder and harder. If we continue, Brother Tie won’t be as lucky as he is now every time.”

“Have you guys eaten Spirit Enhancement Pills recently?” Chen Yu changed the subject.

Duan Ye: “Yes. I’m now Level 2.3.”

Bahuang Yao: “I’ve eaten too. It’s also 2.3.”

“Yeah, try to increase your strength as soon as possible.” Chen Yu’s tone was faint. “Brother Tie signed up for the Global University Tournament. When we get him a good ranking, it can be considered a farewell gift.”

“Then are you still stuck at 1.9?” Duan Ye asked.

“When the time is right, I won’t be stuck. After all, I have to consider your emotions.”

“What the f*ck are you talking about? I suspect that you sold the Spirit Enhancement Pill.”

“This topic ends here.” After flicking two cigarette butts, Chen Yu turned to look at Duan Ye. “Eh? Why didn’t you smoke that cigarette?”

Duan Ye raised his hand and took a deep breath of the unburned cigarette filter. “You didn’t light it for me either…”

…

After leaving the Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University, Chen Yu and the other two returned to the school and arrived at the director’s office on the sixth floor of the teaching center.

Knock, knock, knock!

Standing in front of the door, Chen Yu stretched out his hand and knocked.

Duan Ye, who was at the side, said, “Come in.”

“Okay.” Chen Yu pushed the door open.

Bahuang Yao: “…”

In the office, Gou Sheng was wearing a vest and shaving his armpit hair. He raised his head in surprise and looked at the two uninvited guests who had barged in. “…Ah?”

Duan Ye: “Is the director busy?”

Chen Yu: “His figure is fine.”

Bahuang Yao, who was outside the door: “…”

“Who the hell let you in?” Gou Sheng was stunned for a moment before he cursed loudly.

After that, he cut a small hole under his armpit.

“F*ck… Hiss…”

“I, the Elite Class 2 monitor of Year 1, apply for a new safety officer.” After taking a few steps forward, Chen Yu slapped his student id on the table.

Hearing the words ‘new safety officer’, Gou Sheng immediately came back to his senses. He hurriedly put on his coat and picked up Chen Yu’s student ID. “You f*cking finally got it. It was worth it for me to call Zhang Tie this morning.”

“Actually, if the school didn’t reduce the treatment standard of our security personnel, we would have changed it a long time ago.”

“The school has its own system. What do you think?”

Gou Sheng curled his lips as he took out a security personnel contract document and a recognition machine from the drawer and refreshed Chen Yu’s student ID in the machine.

Di di di…

The machine lit up with a red light.

“Oh?” Gou Sheng raised his head and looked at Chen Yu in confusion. “You’re not the class monitor either?”

Chen Yu: “???”

“I’m sorry.” Duan Ye went forward and straightened his collar. He smiled as he took out his student ID. “I’m a member of the Student Union. I’ll automatically be promoted to class monitor. Thank you.”

Chen Yu: “…”

Beep —

“That’s right this time.” He threw away Chen Yu’s student ID and Gou Sheng placed the machine on the table. “Dai Yu, just press your fingerprint on it and you’ll be able to change the security personnel.”

“My name isn’t Dai Yu.”

“Whoever you want. Hurry up and press it.”

He reached out and left his fingerprint on the screen. Duan Ye said to Gou Sheng, “Is there anything else that needs to be signed?”

“In your dreams? Will I give you the chance to sign the ‘fish’?” Gou Sheng sneered. He pulled out his student id and threw it to Duan Ye. “The security personnel have been replaced. You can go look for her.”

“Where is she?” Chen Yu asked.

“Brother Yu, I’m the class monitor. I’ll handle this from now on.” Duan Ye stopped Chen Yu from speaking. He smiled and said, “Where is she?”

Slap!

Chen Yu’s third slap today was still reserved for Duan Ye, causing him to miss. “Have you gone crazy?”

“Beat… beating up a superior!” Duan Ye pointed at Chen Yu and looked at Gou Sheng. “Isn’t that against the law?”

Gou Sheng said, “You can also beat him back.”

Duan Ye asked, “Are you going to fight back?”

Chen Yu said, “I’m not returning it.”

Duan Ye said, “… If you don’t return it, I can’t beat you either. Violence is the most disgusting thing.”

Ignoring Duan Ye’s criticism, Chen Yu repeated, “Where are our security personnel? Where can we find them?”

“Let me take a look.” Gou Sheng took out his phone and opened a special map app. “Now… Hmm… she’s… She’s on the roof.”

“The roof?”

“Yes.” Gou Sheng raised his head and pointed at the ceiling. He was suddenly furious. “Damn it! She’s on my roof again!”

Chen Yu looked at the phone in Gou Sheng’s hand and suddenly said, “Director, do you know the location of all the security personnel?”

“Yes, why?”

“Do they have a location on them?”

“No…” Gou Sheng shook his head. “It’s not on them. It’s…”

“…” Chen Yu narrowed his eyes.

“It’s in the body.”

“…”

“In the spinal cord.”

“…”

“Any other questions?”

“Excellent management system.” Chen Yu gave a thumbs up and turned to leave. “Excellent.”

He watched Chen Yu and the other two leave.

Gou Sheng took off his coat again and continued to shave his armpit hair. “You’re so weird. If you want to scold me, just say it…”

…

They were all martial artists, so it was naturally not difficult for them to climb to the top.

Chen Yu and the other two used their hands and feet to climb to the top of the building in less than half a minute.

But when they saw the security guard, they were all shocked.

This person was actually wearing a three-point swimsuit and sunglasses, leisurely lying on a beach chair.

And under the chair was a piece of sand that they did not know where she got it from…

It was really a beach version of self-deception…

“Oh.” Hearing this, the woman took off her sunglasses and revealed a charming face. “Welcome. Do you want to see the sea together?”

“You are…” Duan Ye widened his eyes. “You are the one who secretly took photos of us!”

“That’s right.” The mattress woman sat up and rolled up her long wavy hair, revealing her graceful waist. “Why, are you here to compensate me for my phone?”

“Director Gou asked us to come.” Chen Yu pushed Duan Ye away and sized up the mattress woman. “You’re our new security officer now.”

“Is that so?” The mattress woman’s eyes lit up and she licked her lips. “Then do you know… There’s a rule for me to be a security officer?”

“What rule?”

“In order to display my full strength, any class monitor that I protect must be my boyfriend.” The mattress woman blinked. “Are you… ready?”

Chen Yu: “…”

Bahuang Yao: “…”

“Of course I’m ready!”

Suddenly, Duan Ye jumped up and stood in front of Chen Yu, excitedly pointing at himself. “I’m the class monitor of Class 2! I am! I am!”

The mattress woman: “…”

Duan Ye: “Where do we start?”

The mattress woman: “…This rule is canceled.”

Duan Ye: “???”
