Chapter 21 Self-introduction

Hey hey hey?

Why did the name suddenly reveal itself?

Lin Guantang blinked, tilted his head and thought for a moment, guessing what Senior Zhen—now we should call him Senior Huo—meant by revealing his name.

Do you think it's impolite to call someone by a nickname?

I can't figure it out.

But in return, shouldn't he also introduce himself?

Thinking of this, he also sent out his name.

[Haitang]: Oh, hello, Senior Huo, my name is Lin Guantang, from District 35, and I’m a freshman this year. I’m very happy to meet you and everyone in the group!

[Sikong]: You're introducing yourself so formally, are you planning to go on a blind date in the group?^^

[Sikong]: I am Sikong Tan, also known as Xiao Haitang. Men's words can be deceiving, so don't trust too much of what I say. If you really want to know more about your senior Huo, you can come to me if you need his information. I guarantee that it is complete and true.^^

Lin Guantang's face flushed crimson. He wanted to protest, but it felt strange no matter what he said. Could it be that the capital had become so open-minded that O2O relationships could be mentioned so openly in public?

Lin Guantang's memories still linger on the era when the Empire forced AO pairings—even though the relevant provisions had been in force for ten years (not really).

In short, although the relevant laws on compulsory AO marriage have been abolished, but——

Perhaps Area 35 is still a bit too feudal. According to Lin Guantang's observations and feelings, AO pairing is still the trend, and AA also has signs. However, when it comes to this, people's attitudes are still somewhat unbelievably subtle.

As for O-O love... first of all, there are very few Omegas, and secondly, Omegas have very low self-preservation abilities. In short, even ordinary awakened Omegas will be arranged to match with Alphas, either actively or passively, almost within a few months of awakening.

Among OO, let alone falling in love with the same kind openly, there are even few opportunities for them to get along with each other for a long time.

If it were not for this, his adoptive father and godfather would not have been so anxious to send Lin Guantang to the imperial capital - before Lin Guantang set off for the imperial capital, many people from the surrounding areas had come to inquire about his future. Fortunately, the speed of approving applications from the All O College in the imperial capital was also very fast, so they were able to effectively dissuade those alphas who came to the door.

After all, in the public's understanding, entering the All-O Academy is equivalent to catching the attention of the famous families in the imperial capital. No one would easily offend someone of higher status than themselves for the sake of an omega.

Lin Guantang knew the two adults' plans very well - even if he was destined to be paired with an alpha, it would be better for him to go out and gain more experience and be noticed by the famous families in the imperial capital than to be deceived by some alpha of unknown origin at such a young age.

However, that's another topic.

In short, Lin Guantang was surprised and embarrassed by Sikong Tan's natural talk of going on a blind date.

Because that really wasn't his intention!

Although he was curious about and had a good impression of Senior Huo, that was because he had never seen anyone with long silver hair in real life. Senior Huo was also a nice person, so it was normal for him to want to know more...

But the idea of ​​two people falling in love was still too advanced for him.

While Lin Guantang was thinking about how to respond appropriately, several other people also posted their real names in the group and pushed Sikong Tan's message to the top. So Lin Guantang breathed a sigh of relief and decided to ignore it as if he hadn't seen it.

But what I didn’t expect was that Senior Sikong actually followed up with a private message to ask.

[Sikong>> Note: Senior Sikong]:

If Xiao Haitang has any thoughts on what kind of person Huo Da Mowang is and is afraid to say it in the group, you can tell me in private chat. I won’t tell him^^

Lin Guantang suspected that his senior had typed "shy" instead of "afraid".

Because Lin Guantang really couldn't think of anything to be afraid of, but he was somewhat shy, so he replied helplessly.

[Haitang>> Note: Poor Haitang]: Of course he is a good person, I am very grateful to Senior Huo for helping me

Senior Sikong: ...Really? You can tell the truth in front of me.

[Poor Haitang]: Of course it’s true, there’s nothing I can’t say.

[Senior Sikong]: ...You're right [qiang], Xiao Haitang, you really impressed me [wow]

[Senior Sikong]: I'll send you the account and password for the mini-game. Remember to play it. I'm looking forward to your feedback^^

After sending the newly applied account password to Lin Guantang, Sikong Tan solemnly changed the note from [Poor Haitang] to [Good Guy Haitang]. After thinking about it, he finally changed it to [Cute Haitang].

Only a cute omega would think that Huo Shizhen is a good person - no, to be precise, up to now, Sikong Tan has only heard from Haitang that Huo Shizhen is a good person.

Sikong Tan thought about it, found Huo Shizhen's account, changed his note to [Good Man Huo], then smiled at the note for three minutes, coughed, and sent a message with a serious expression.

[Sikong]: Why did you suddenly reveal your name? You will be exposed very quickly. Calculating the time, the O Academy is about to start school. What if Xiao Haitang and other classmates mention you after school starts and find out that you are from the military academy? We small fry will be fine, but everyone knows your name, Young Master Huo.

[Sikong]: So, leaking the photos was a wrong move from the beginning. As expected, a well-developed person like Xiao Baishu is a walking information leak machine. There are so many people in the photos, and all of them are big and strong and tanned. O Academy is full of delicate little lambs. If we don’t see any of them after school starts, people will definitely be confused. Oh, what if Xiao Haitang finds out that he has joined an alpha group and gets scared away?

[Good Man Huo]: Is making degrading remarks also a way for the Intelligence Department to hide its identity?

Sikong: ...

[Good Man Huo]: Why do you think he joined the S-level freshman group of the military academy?

[Sikong]: Because you strayed in? I don't think Haitang is a spy. Are you being too conspiratorial? Haitang thought you were a good person. You've really let her down. [Condemning gaze]

[Good Man Huo]: I withdraw what I said before. It seems that Omega has an intelligence-reducing buff on Alpha.

Sikong: ...

[Good Man Huo]: If you think he is an innocent and good person, then go find evidence to convince me instead of relying on your feelings. With the name, it shouldn't be difficult to find him. If he is really an innocent person who strayed in - isn't hiding the truth the forte of the Intelligence Department?

Sikong: You want me to find a reason to make him accept the legitimacy of being in the AO group? This kind of thing can be done in private chat, but do you need to get the name and find the real person to discuss it face to face? You underestimate me too much.

[Good Man Huo]: If you only think about this, it's reasonable for me to look down on you.

[Sikong]: ...So what does it mean?

Good Man Huo: I heard they're planning to promote you as a candidate for Intelligence Department Director after school starts? If you can't even deduce this, I suggest you resign.

The talk is so confusing... Who is from the Intelligence Department?

Sikong Tan took a deep breath and then controlled his urge to curse.

It was a very carefree malicious speculation that Huo Shizhen must have maxed out his martial arts skills because he knew how venomous his tongue was and was afraid of being ambushed.

If being sharp-tongued could be punished, Huo Shizhen would have been thrown into jail and sentenced to life imprisonment long ago!

***

On the other hand, the chaotic S4 also calmed down temporarily.

"Why are they suddenly calling out names? Do we have to follow them too?"

Looking at the messages in the group, Wen Tiange hesitantly reported his name, then looked at the self-introduction sent by classmate Haitang and said in a daze:

"What is District 35? I've never heard of it."

"It's weird that they're only exchanging names now. Could it be that Senior Huo suddenly wants to exchange names because he plans to find out Haitang's real name and then stand at the school gate with the roster to block people off when school starts?"

Jian Yinglai also wrote out his name and said with disdain:

"Don't be so uneducated! District 35 is the only unnamed region in the empire. It's said to be full of homeless people with nowhere to go, artists who find hardship on their own, and orphans of unknown origin."

Wen Tiange chuckled twice and rolled his eyes. He didn't think there was anything to say. Even the empire ignored and forgot to name the place, so how could he remember it?

"So, Haitang is also an orphan?"

Shao Qingbai, who "knew the truth", also sent out his name, and pretended to show sympathy and condemned:

"Sigh, I don't know how much effort Haitang put in to get into the military academy. Emperor Huo is so heartless that he just bullies her."

Wen Tiange looked at Shao Qingbai's exaggerated performance with hesitation, wanting to ask him the purpose of saying this, whether he was condemning the cruelty of the great devil Huo or pitying Haitang's background.

And it's obvious that he's hiding something out of guilt... It's really suspicious.

But he didn't have the energy to fight anymore, so he remained silent. Tian Ye, on the other hand, looked puzzled, as if he knew nothing.

"Why did Senior Huo want to bully Lin?"

Fortunately, after Lin Guantang revealed his name, only Tian Ye remembered his name and changed his address immediately.

But no one cares.

After the other three people explained, Tian Ye finally dug out from the depths of his memory the story of how Huo Shizhen had "evil intentions" at the beginning and deliberately blurred the concept in order to frame Haitang for going to the restaurant to overcharge customers.

However, Tian Ye was still very confused. Was Senior Huo really so vindictive?

It was such a long time ago, why would he still remember it and ask for revenge at the beginning of the school year? Looking at the messages in the group, I don’t see that Senior Huo is targeting Classmate Lin.

However, as the saying goes, outnumbered, seeing the other three people sincerely praying for good luck for Haitang, Tian Ye had to bury his doubts in his heart.
