The two inside were quite different. One was burly with a domineering gaze, and the other was slightly thin but had a fierce look. They both looked like people who were not to be trifled with.
Xiao He really didn't want to go in, but since Ma Hongwu had said so, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go in.
"This is Xiao Xiaoyou, a student at Shanghai University, currently working as an actor," Ma Hongwu introduced Xiao He. "Although he's young, don't underestimate him. He's been involved in several acts of bravery and has even been on the news. He's a very good kid, and his martial arts talent is also outstanding; his boning knife technique is incredibly skillful..."
Xiao He: "..."
It's unclear what words triggered the burly man's nerves, but his gaze suddenly fell upon Xiao He, carrying a powerful and oppressive aura that instantly sent shivers down Xiao He's spine. The instincts of a criminal's hounds barked wildly at the danger posed by the man, and even Xiao He's usually calm heart began to pound violently.
Danger! Extremely dangerous!
Is this man a policeman?
No, no, this kind of aura is definitely not just from the police... it's from the soldiers!
It was probably a high-risk military unit like a special forces soldier, because Xiao He could also smell a faint scent of blood.
The burly man narrowed his eyes, his sharp, hawk-like gaze fixed on Xiao He's face, and asked in a serious tone, "Are you afraid of me?"
As he spoke, the air seemed to freeze for a moment.
"Hehe, no, no, I just felt that this uncle had a very strong presence and didn't look like an ordinary person."
Xiao He twitched the corners of his mouth, forcing out a smile.
Is that so?
The man continued to stare at Xiao He, while Xiao He pretended to be calm and asked very frankly, "Yes, are you a soldier, Uncle? I feel that you have an unusual aura about you."
The man looked Xiao He up and down, then revealed a faint smile: "Your observation skills are indeed quite sharp. No wonder you were able to catch the thief in the crowd so quickly."
"Huh?" Xiao He was genuinely surprised this time. "You know me?"
"Xiao He has performed acts of bravery many times, helping the police catch criminals and thieves. I have also seen the video of you climbing to the outside of the building to rescue a child. I admire your courage and ability very much. However, next time you rescue someone, you should think more about your own safety and protect yourself."
Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief.
So that's how it is.
Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Ma Hongwu smiled and introduced, "You can just call this Uncle Yan."
"Hello, Uncle Yan." Xiao He quickly greeted him.
Yan Zhengbai nodded slightly: "You guessed correctly just now, but I have already retired and am no longer considered a soldier."
Xiao He chuckled awkwardly: "I see..."
"Since there are students here, I'll be leaving now."
Fortunately, Yan Zhengbai did not intend to stay any longer and took his leave. The thin man next to him also said, "Okay, goodbye, Captain Yan."
After Yan Zhengbai left, Ma Hongwu formally introduced his teacher to Xiao He: "This is Teacher Song Zhesong."
Song Zhe's aura was weaker than Yan Zhengbai's earlier, and Xiao He could smell the blood on him. Although he looked somewhat fierce, he had dimples on his cheeks when he smiled, and his eyes were gentle when he looked at Xiao He: "Hello, Xiao classmate."
Xiao He: "Hello, Teacher Song."
If nothing unexpected happens, this Mr. Song should also be a retired soldier.
Xiao He subtly observed the teacher in front of him, when suddenly his gaze sharpened and landed on Song Zhe's right arm.
Song Zhe was wearing a fitted short-sleeved shirt, holding a wooden sword in his left hand, but his right sleeve was empty. At first, Xiao He thought he had his hands behind his back, but only now, upon closer inspection, did he realize that Song Zhe's right arm, all the way to his shoulder, was empty.
—This teacher, Song Zhe, is actually a disabled person.
