Chapter 696: 696
The Demon Hunters Association incident finally came to an end with President Bai blowing himself up, which was the widespread explanation that had been given to city residents . But anyone who was personally involved in this matter all knew that the Demon Hunters Association was just the beginning; before the leader of that foreign power was captured, this matter couldn't be considered over .
The next day was July 26th, the fourteenth Wednesday of the semester .
The news that President Bai, the president of the Demon Hunters Association, had blown himself up spread like wildfire online . Under the pressure from Secretary Dakang of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Schools, every major media outlet left out news on Wang Ling and didn't release any student information . It was the Alliance's responsibility to protect student privacy to begin with… Of course, it was Odd Zhuo who had made the request, otherwise things wouldn't have gone so smoothly .
Early in the morning at Elegant Little Pavilion, General Yi and his assistant Tang Chen were having tea and reading the morning post .
"The crisis was resolved just like that? Is that student really alright?" Old Tang had some doubts; he felt that there was something fishy about this affair, and there were too many suspicious points for which there were no clear explanations .
So many things had happened at No . 60 High, and in the end the school had managed to avoid all disaster . Furthermore, that Director Odd Zhuo of Songhai's General Administration of 100 Schools, who was at the height of his fame, had been involved in practically every incident . He was a graduate of No . 60 High who made a name several years ago after somehow killing a demon king . Moreover, he had been shooting up the ladder like a rocket recently, and had already drawn General Yi's eye .
Putting down the newspaper, General Yi gazed at Old Tang and said, "It appears that you and I share pretty much the same speculation . "
Old Tang nodded . "From my humble point of view, there is definitely someone acting as a driving force behind the scenes, and it's someone with plenty of resources . "
"Dakang has alway been mum on this matter… as expected, is what I'm most worried about going to happen?" General Yi heaved a sigh; this was what he dreaded the most!
In the last few years, the fight against corruption had become increasingly widespread, and practically no one dared commit this crime . If any one of the Ten Generals was corrupt… it would be a heavy blow to Huaxiu nation .
Old Tang: "Does General Yi suspect…"
General Yi hurriedly stopped him . "I do, but we can't say anything rash since we don't have any evidence at the moment . "
In fact, General Yi had already started to suspect something a long time ago . Now, he could finally almost see the entire shape of the matter . He was well aware that he wouldn't get anywhere if he questioned Sun Dakang directly . Thus, when all was said and done, he had to start with No . 60 High, and with Odd Zhuo, if he wanted to carry out an investigation… he had indeed been considering this before the Demon Hunters Association incident had come to an end .
But now he had a new plan; he decided to pay the student at the center of this incident a visit at home .
He didn't know if it was his own mistaken impression, but General Yi felt that there was something a little fishy about this .
And as for what kind of person the Almighty who stood behind Director Odd Zhuo was, General Yi had a strong feeling that this trip… would give him an answer!
"Looks like you've made up your mind, General . " Seeing General Yi's determined look, Old Tang chuckled .
"I hope the outcome of this matter won't be too terrible . Dakang and I have worked together for thousands of years . Logically speaking, he wouldn't do anything so stupid… but if he's involved in this matter, I'll go all out to arrest him . "
When he said this, his eyes flickered . "Separate the public and the private, this is the best way to handle this . "
"Does the General need me to make any preparations?" asked Old Tang .
General Yi waved his hand . "Not for now . The Beast King's Remains summer camp in Songhai city is about to start, and I'm supposed to go . I should also go see my foolish junior brother while I'm at it… But before that, I plan to clarify something first…"
. . .
Elsewhere, No . 60 High was especially noisy this morning, and the focus of attention in Grade One, Class Three was naturally Wang Ling and his "new lease on life . "
He came to school particularly early today; when he arrived, there were only a few students who were cleaning the class, and Little Peanut was on his way out the door with several bouquets of flowers which he was going to throw out .
