Chapter 35 An unusual first day of school
September 1st is the first day of school at Wuyi University.
At six o'clock in the morning, Chen Chuan straightened himself in front of the dressing mirror in the wardrobe. He put on the formal student suit from Wuyi University, which Yu Wan had already ironed for him.
He reached out and picked up his student cap, put it on properly, straightened his clothes, turned and walked to the door, picked up a suitcase, walked outside, took another look at the room, and slowly closed it.
Yu Wan was waiting in the living room and said, "Xiao Chuan, there's no one to take care of you at Wuhan University. Remember to eat more, don't study too hard, and remember to go to bed early so you don't get too tired."
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, auntie. The school has always been very generous with food and accommodation, and there are holidays every ten days. I will come back to see you and your husband."
Yu Wan came up and straightened his cuffs, patted them, took two steps back, and said with satisfaction, "My Chan'er is so handsome."
Chen Chuan said, "Aunt, I'm leaving. Please say hello to my uncle for me."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Chen Chuan pushed the door open and was greeted by a breath of fresh air. He did not ride a bike today but walked directly to Wuyi University.
He went over today's schedule in his mind. The opening ceremony would be at around nine o'clock, so he had to go to the dormitory to put his luggage before that. After the ceremony, he would be led by senior students to familiarize himself with the school and understand the main direction for the future. After that, he would be free to do what he wanted. Tomorrow he would officially start his new study career.
Less than an hour's walk later, he could already see the school gate.
Just as he was about to walk over, a silver-gray Tuotu car drove over and stopped not far in front of him. The car door opened and a tall young man came out. He had neat black short hair, wore a neat navy blue imported formal suit and a tie, and wore a pair of black leather shoes that were polished so well that they could reflect a person's reflection.
"Brother Chen Chuan, is that you?" The young man smiled and walked over to him, extending his hand. "Let me introduce myself. I'm Wei Changan, a third-year student at Wuyi University."
Chen Chuan's heart moved when he heard the name. He stretched out his hand and shook his hand, saying, "Hello, senior, are you Wei...Captain Wei's son?"
Wei Changan smiled and said, "Yes, I am Wei Lao Hu's son. There is nothing to be embarrassed about this nickname. Just call him Lao Hu."
Chen Chuan looked at him. He had seen Wei Lao Hu before. He was a carefree, fierce and strong man. He didn't expect his son to be such a respectable man. This man seemed to have come to see him specifically, so he asked, "Senior Wei, what can I do for you?"
"Well..." Wei Changan said a little more seriously, "Brother Chen Chuan, there's an outreach mission at the academy that requires your cooperation. I'm sorry, I'm afraid you won't be able to attend the opening ceremony on time today."
Chen Chuan was a little surprised and said, "An external mission? Senior Wei, are you sure? I'm just a freshman who hasn't even started school yet..."
At this moment, the back window of the car rolled down, and a familiar deep voice came from inside: "Student Chen, you go with him. This is the task assigned to you by the school. Wei Changan will explain the details to you."
Chen Chuan took a look and found that the person was also someone he knew. It was the lecturer Bian Feng who accepted him during the entrance exam. He quickly greeted him, "Hello, Teacher Bian."
Bian Feng said, "Student Chen, since you passed the retest, you're now an A-level student at the school. You have the obligation and responsibility to cooperate with the Civil Affairs Bureau and the relevant departments." He took out two forms and said, "Wei Changan, give this to him and have him sign the other one."
Wei Changan ran over to take it, then walked back and handed it to Chen Chuanchu, saying, "This is the travel permit issued by the school. With this permit, you can be exempted from school activities and obtain limited rights of self-defense."
Chen Chuan took it and took a look. It had seals from three school departments: the Recruitment Office, the General Affairs Office, and the Execution Office, as well as the signature of Vice Principal Gu Botang.
Wei Changan handed over a pen and said, "Please sign the second one. Teacher Bian will take it back for his records."
Chen Chuan thought about it and felt that this matter seemed to be a decision made by the school management, so he could only do as he was told. However, he didn't know what the decision was. Was the reason for choosing him related to the re-examination?
He took the pen and signed it.
Wei Changan took it, looked at it, and walked back to hand it to Bian Feng. Bian Feng put it in the briefcase he was carrying, got out of the car, and said, "I'm going back to school first. I'll leave this matter to you. Remember to take care of it."
Wei Changan said, "Don't worry, Teacher Bian."
Bian Feng walked towards the school gate with his briefcase. Wei Changan held out his hand and said, "Junior, let me help you put your luggage in the trunk."
Chen Chuan said thank you. Wei Changan took it and walked to the back of the car. He opened the trunk and put the suitcase inside. He walked to the front and opened the door. He gestured with his hand and said, "Junior brother, get in the car. We're leaving now. If we finish early, you can come back earlier."
Chen Chuan walked over, sat in the passenger seat and fastened his seat belt.
Wei Changan also got in from the other side, fastened his seat belt, put his hands on the steering wheel, turned the car key, and after some skillful operation, the algae oil engine roared and drove onto the highway.
After driving for a while, he saw that Chen Chuan didn't say anything, so he smiled and said, "Why, are you a little disappointed that you can't attend the opening ceremony? In my opinion, what's the point of attending an opening ceremony? A bunch of old men and women talking at the top is annoying. If you want to know something, just ask your brother Wei directly."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Senior, can I ask what this mission is?"
"Don't call me senior, just call me Brother Wei, um..." Wei Changan looked ahead and said, "Actually, this matter is related to you."
"Um?"
Chen Chuan was a little surprised.
Wei Changan asked, "Do you remember someone attacked you on the street before the retest?"
Chen Chuan thought for a moment and asked in surprise, "Is it related to this matter?"
Wei Changan said, "The man who attacked you was called Dou Qi. He was responsible for protecting an underground drug exchange. When the police went to arrest him that day, they discovered a fugitive named Tong Qianjiang. Oh, this person is an accomplice of a group of fugitives. This group escaped from Qiguang Prison three months ago and has not been apprehended until now..."
At this time, he turned on the right turn signal and took a fork in the road. Chen Chuan looked at the direction and found that it should be heading towards the east of the city.
Wei Changan continued, "After discovering this clue, Captain Yu... oh, the Xigang District Patrol Captain who led the team that day, reported the matter and conducted an interrogation.
Dou Qi's employer is called Lao Hei, and he controls a channel for illegal drugs. This time, Tong Qianjiang came to buy anti-alienation drugs, which is interesting.
Chen Chuan pondered and said, "Anti-alienation drugs? I seem to have heard of them somewhere."
Wei Changan glanced at the rearview mirror and continued, "Do you know about implants? Giant corporations around the world use bio-cultures to replace human limbs and organs, thereby gaining functions that surpass those of humans. Of course, military supplies are different from civilian supplies. Most of those circulating now are civilian products. It is said that everyone in Central City uses them. However, these things need to be taken long-term or injected with anti-alienation drugs, otherwise they will produce an alienation reaction with serious consequences.
Implants are not very common outside the central city, perhaps because certain technical support is required for implantation. Even anti-alienation drugs are banned outside the central city.
Now here's the interesting part: Tong Qianjiang and his gang didn't have any implants when they were arrested. So why did they need the anti-alienation drug? Did they get the implants after escaping prison, or did they buy them for someone else?
The police station investigated and found that Lao Hei's drugs came from his superior, Qiu Huzi. Furthermore, according to his account, Tong Qianjiang and his gang had likely received drugs from Qiu Huzi before, but only introduced them to him later. However, Lao Hei had a trick up his sleeve. He was afraid of being implicated, so he stayed out of the way and sent his unsuspecting subordinates to contact Fang Dawei's men.
In order to find Fang Dawei and his gang, the police are searching for clues from Qiu Huzi, who is hiding under the protection of a leader of the Blood Scar Gang. We are now going to find this person and ask him to hand him over."
Chen Chuan was a little puzzled and asked, "Since this matter involves a gang, why don't the police come and arrest them directly? Instead, they want us Wu Yi's students to go and find them?"
"Why not just arrest them? Hey, the Bloodstain Gang is backed by the Molan Company. The company the gang has officially established is registered under the Molan Company. Not only do they have their own lawyers, but they also have the support of the Molan Company's legal team. If we go through the formal channels, we can't arrest them without superficial evidence."
"As for why you gave this matter to us," Wei Changan smiled, leaned forward, took out a name card from the storage box in front, handed it to him, and said, "Take a look."
Chen Chuan took it and saw that it was written: "Registered member of the association, person in charge of important affairs, Wei Changan".
Wei Changan said, "Students at Wuyi Academy can start internships in their second year, and in their third year, they can start working in various departments of the Civil Affairs Department, or go out on their own. I am currently a member of the Commissioned Association, specifically responsible for handling negotiations and communications with non-governmental organizations."
Chen Chuan had also heard of the principal. The principal system was not only popular in the Dashun Republic, but also abroad.
When a department or individual needs to manage or contact another individual or organization that is not within the system, in order to save costs and avoid redundant procedures, the matter will be handed over to the client, who will be responsible for communication and handling of various matters.
These clients have a large number of connections and resources, and they communicate and compete with each other. Some senior clients are even given power.
Once you understand Wei Changan’s current identity, you will understand why he can participate in it.
Wei Changan said, "Don't worry, junior. The client company I'm affiliated with has already communicated with the leader of the Blood Scar Gang, and they've already agreed to hand the person over to us. This time we're just going over there to go through the motions."
Chen Chuan asked, "Just because this matter is related to me, you took me with you?"
Wei Changan sighed and said, "Brother Wei, I'm doing you a favor. You know, overseas assignments like this involve academic evaluations, which affect your future certifications. Well, those certifications that only Wu Yi can obtain nationwide!"
"Then I thank Brother Wei."
"That's right. We are all members of the Yangzhi Police Bureau. For such a large police bureau, there are only four people who can pass the re-examination, including you and me. If I don't help you, who will I help?"
Chen Chuan thought about it. The Police Bureau had a tradition of unity, but...
His expression was a little subtle. Could it be that Wei Lao Hu was about to be defeated, so he asked his son to come over and do him a favor so that his uncle would be embarrassed to speak again?
