Chapter 85 How many more sisters are there?
Bai Mo and others returned to the middle town of Jiufeng Mountain. They first submitted the task of hunting down the Lingyin Rat. The reward was quickly settled and Bai Mo received about 30 million.
As for the task of investigating the gathering of the spirit-sound rats, the four of them also wrote a task report and noted their own speculations.
In fact, they wanted to investigate thoroughly before submitting the report, but the Lingyin rats had all been killed, and the sudden threat from Jiufeng Mountain had also been resolved. If they delayed it any further, this side might not pay attention to the matter in the future.
"Master Mingdeng, are you preparing to return to the temple?" Bai Mo asked as the group walked on the street of Zhongjian Town.
"That's right. By the way, let's sort out the gains from this trip and see if we can find out what happened to Donor Ye."
"Then why don't we go together? I'm also going back to Mingzhu Academy to inform them of the situation in the Extraordinary Academy. I hope we'll be in time." Bai Mo said slowly.
Hearing this, Zhou Tianyuan and Mingdeng pondered for a few seconds. Finally, Zhou Tianyuan asked, "Are you doubting that the person in our school who asked Ye Zaojun to do this is not the real mastermind?"
"Yes." Bai Mo nodded and said slowly: "The teachers in our school have no reason to do this directly. Part of the mineral resources of Jiufeng Mountain were donated to our school."
"We will always be able to find the mastermind. We have already reported this to the Jiufeng Mountain military. We will talk to the school when we get back. If the military and the school investigate together, how can the mastermind get away?"
Zhou Tianyuan was very optimistic. He felt that the target had been locked and it must be related to the teacher of the Yiren Academy.
"Let's go back to the Magic City first."
A thin man with sparse hair, small and sharp eyes and a sinister face sat in the councillor's office in the Pearl Mage Tower. Through the glass, he could see most of the Magic City, and if he looked further away, he could see the sea.
The man looked at the Coast Guard headquarters at a certain point on the sea border. His eyes were filled with calculations and disgust for the scenery.
He has been sitting in this place for several years.
This blue sea and sky makes people feel broad-minded, but it cannot cultivate a broad-minded person who is as tolerant as the sea and embraces all things.
Yes, there is a guy who only cares about power.
The female secretary standing by the door walked over to him and reported respectfully.
"Member, there is a flaw in the plan. We have failed to stop the mining progress of Jiufeng Mountain. Li Linchun's actions may have been discovered."
Hearing this, the sinister man frowned. Jiufeng Mountain has always been led by the Gu family, a faction of military magicians. It has become an important bargaining chip for them to support Gu Changying's transition from the commander of the southern line of the Coastal Defense Army to the Minister of the Coastal Defense Department. If he cannot get rid of this bargaining chip, he will have no chance.
He doesn't like incompetent people, but he is also not nostalgic or sentimental.
This Li Linchun was the vice-president of Mingzhu Academy whom he personally promoted. Not only did he fail to do his job well for him, but he also revealed his true colors. Once Li Linchun was found out, he might be implicated.
The somewhat irritated man was in deep thought, and his eyes began to look the secretary up and down.
Mingzhu Academy welcomed back four students who had been away from him for a few days. As soon as he returned to school, Bai Mo was recognized, which made him a little strange.
Wasn't it just a baby match in the beast fighting competition? How did it attract so much attention? Why is it that among the two protagonists, only Mo Fan has an aura that can cause face blindness?
Instead of going back to the dormitory to relax or do other things, Bai Mo said goodbye to the three people and went straight to Dean Xiao's office.
Unless there are special circumstances, Dean Xiao is usually here.
He knocked on the door, and waited until someone inside said "come in" before Bai Mo pushed the door open and walked in.
Dean Xiao was looking up some information. He looked up at the person who came in, with a calm and natural smile on his face. He asked in a calm tone:
"Student Bai Mo, what's the matter with you coming to see me?"
Bai Mo nodded and said directly: "Yes, there is something, Dean, I want to know about the affairs of the Yi Ren Academy."
"Yirenyuan." Dean Xiao was not surprised to hear this term from Bai Mo. He thought Bai Mo heard it from Ding Yumian and asked him to know more details, so he explained:
"The Abnormal Academy has existed since Mingzhu was founded. Initially, it was to protect and train some talented students. However, with some regulations of the Abnormal Academy, the function of the Abnormal Academy has also changed."
"Right now, there aren't many students in the Pearl Abbey. It mainly provides a shelter for some special talents."
"I have observed Ding Yumian for three years. Her talent is very stable and she will not be accepted into the Abnormal Academy."
Hearing Dean Xiao talk about the history and functions of the Yi Ren Yuan, as well as the arrangements for Ding Yumian, Bai Mo shook his head. If it were normal times, he would be happy to listen to Dean Xiao talk about these seemingly useful, yet useless things.
But now he just wanted to get to the point, so he asked directly:
"Dean Xiao, do you know Ye Zaojun?"
"Huh?!" Dean Xiao's eyebrows twitched. Although the Academy of Extraordinary People has a dedicated dean in charge, he is in charge of Mingzhu Academy. The abilities of the students in the Academy of Extraordinary People are unique and valuable, and there are not many of them.
So he remembers every student clearly.
This Night Stove Lord is a rat man who can control rat monsters below the commander level in a special way. Many of the giant-eyed fishy rats in the underground of Demon City were eliminated by him or led to the wild.
This classmate entered the school four years ago and should be graduating now. I think he will become a mentor at the Academy of Extraordinary People or a researcher of extraordinary abilities.
But the aliens in the Alien Academy usually don't leave the academy on their own initiative, so why did Bai Mo ask him? So Dean Xiao said:
"He is a student of the Abnormal Academy. Have you met him? I heard from Director Jiang Yunming that you seemed to have gone to Jiufeng Mountain in the past few days."
"We met him near Jiufeng Mountain. He is dead." Bai Mo nodded. Seeing Dean Xiao's serious look, he waved his hand, first spread a piece of white cloth on the ground, and then placed the body of Ye Zaojun in the space on it.
Then he began to tell the story of his meeting with Ye Zaojun. Dean Xiao listened quietly, with a frost gradually forming on his brows.
After hearing Bai Mo's last words of Ye Zaojun, Dean Xiao's eyes were even more moved.
"President Li, I will investigate this matter together with President Fu Jiaming of the Yi Ren Academy." President Xiao glanced at Bai Mo, grasped the key point, and comforted him:
"Don't worry, Dean Fu is the one who protects these children with miserable backgrounds. He will never do anything like expelling the alien students to complete graduation tasks!"
Hearing this, Bai Mo nodded slightly, and looked at Ye Zaojun's body again, "Dean, Senior Ye's body..."
Dean Xiao waved his hand, and without any spatial fluctuation, Ye Zaojun's body disappeared.
"The school has a cemetery, you don't have to worry about that."
"Okay." Bai Mo nodded. Ye Zaojun's last request was completed. Now all that was left was to make the person who killed him pay the price.
"Dean Xiao, may I know the location of the Yi Ren Yuan?"
"In the main campus of Mingzhu." Dean Xiao glanced at Bai Mo, as if he knew what he wanted to do, and said:
"Bai Mo, you need to apply to enter the Yi Ren Academy. In addition, you have to believe in the purity of Mingzhu Academy, or believe in me, an old guy. I will definitely give an explanation to classmate Ye Zaojun."
"Okay." Shrugging, Bai Mo glanced at Dean Xiao, "Then Dean, I'm leaving."
"Well, go back and practice hard. Meditation after the battle is the most effective."
Dean Xiao nodded slightly, gave some instructions, watched Bai Mo leave, and disappeared into the office himself.
"Old Fu."
His calm voice suddenly appeared, which startled Fu Jiaming, who was in the office thinking about how to deal with the difficulties faced by those profit-seeking guys in the Research and Development Committee. He subconsciously drew half of a constellation.
After reacting, Fu Jiaming turned his head angrily and looked at Dean Xiao who suddenly appeared, and said unhappily:
"I say, Lao Xiao, you are not young anymore, why are you as impatient as those students? Can't you just go through the door?"
"Yezao-kun is dead. Come with me to bury him first."
Dean Xiao ignored Fu Jiaming's complaints and without giving the old man any time to relax, he dropped a bombshell.
"What! The Kitchen God is dead?! How is that possible!"
Fu Jiaming was furious, his hair and beard were all standing on end, his whole body was full of aura, the heavy wooden table beside him was shaking, papers were flying everywhere, it looked like he would overturn the whole building at any time.
"Who did it? Are they those idiots from the Research Institute?"
"Calm down first. Don't be so impatient like a student."
Dean Xiao pressed his hand, signaling him not to be anxious, then asked with a frown.
"He's not in school these days, don't you know?"
"I just came back today. A few days ago, the Court of Arbitration was assigning some dangerous talents. I went to listen to the meeting. These people really wish that the world was full of mediocre people!"
As Fu Jiaming spoke, his beard stood up and he looked indignant.
"No wonder." Dean Xiao nodded and said that if Fu Jiaming was in the academy and a student suddenly graduated and left, he would not have been unaware of it.
"This is what happened..."
Dean Xiao roughly explained the matter of Ye Zaojun. In his opinion, Fu Jiaming had been in charge of the Yi Ren Academy and knew more about many things in the academy than he did. He should be able to judge whether Dean Li would do this.
Sure enough, as soon as Dean Xiao finished speaking, Fu Jiaming shouted angrily, "Li Linchun!"
"Is there something wrong with him?" Dean Xiao frowned. He didn't have a deep impression of Li Linchun. He was assigned to the Alien Academy by the Magic Education Department of the Magic Association.
Fu Jiaming glanced at Dean Xiao and nodded slowly. "Yes, he doesn't care about the students of the Alien Academy. He even thinks that protecting these people will cause trouble for the Magic Association and the country. Many of my decisions and ideas have been rejected by him."
"To stop an old stubborn person like you, a vice-dean position and an external assignment from the Department of Magical Education are not enough." Dean Xiao narrowed his eyes and asked dimly, "Who is behind him? You should know."
"He is a councillor from the Pearl Mage Tower."
"Which congressman?"
"The banker's."
Upon hearing this, a gleam of light flashed across Dean Xiao's eyes. Councillor Zhuang is a top-level magician. In comparison, the identity of a councillor is not very important.
As a member of the Pearl Mage Tower Council, the four major families in the Magic City each have a fixed seat. If one is not elected as a senior councilor, the identity of this councilor is usually just a mouthpiece for the four major families in the Magic City.
What’s important is that Councillor Zhuang is also one of the deputy ministers of the Coast Guard.
In recent years, Jiuzhou has paid more and more attention to coastal defense. The importance of the Coastal Defense Department, which has an overall view of coastal defense, is self-evident. When thinking about the style and rumors of that congressman, President Xiao had the answer in his mind.
"Hmph! You are obsessed with power. I will go to Jiufeng Mountain. Old Fu, you take the school patrol committee to investigate Li Linchun."
After Dean Xiao finished speaking, a silver glow fell and he disappeared into the room.
After coming out of Dean Xiao's office, Bai Mo prepared to take a walk around the school.
Since Dean Xiao said that he would give Ye Zaojun an explanation, Bai Mo still believed it.
At the same time, he also planned to go to the Yiren Academy himself. He had already sent the application through his mobile phone, but he didn't know when he would get any news.
He also didn't expect that this academy had restrictions. If his application was approved and the corrupt officials in the Alien Academy had already been cleared out, then what would be the point of him going there again.
Some things are more comforting when seen with your own eyes.
When we got near Yue Lake, we saw Ding Yumian coming out of a teaching building at the end of the road.
She was wearing a loose white shirt with the hem tucked into her blue vintage jeans and tied with a light-colored belt, which outlined her slender waist that could be held in one hand and highlighted the fullness of her upper body.
Combined with her quiet and elegant temperament, there is a different kind of beauty.
There were other students coming out with them. They seemed to be from the same class or department and had just finished class.
Bai Mo walked over there while observing. She seemed to see herself and walked over here.
Boys were looking at her from time to time, and there was a shameless one who was very close to her, looking very elegant, and seemed to be talking to Ding Yumian.
Ding Yumian ignored him. Bai Mo glanced at the boy and felt that he looked familiar.
Um, the one who tried to hurt Feng Ling with soul attack in the beast fighting competition. He is actually in the same class as Ding Yumian?
It seems that the soul attack was not caused by this guy's eagerness to win.
Bai Mo narrowed his eyes, took a few quick steps to Ding Yumian's side, looked at her and said with a smile:
"Go for a walk?"
"good."
Then the two of them walked side by side, turned a corner, and headed towards Moon Lake.
As he walked, Bai Mo kept an eye on the movements of the pretentious boy.
He thought there would be some exciting plot, but when the man saw his face change, he just left.
Go away!
What? This guy doesn't look like an upright person. Shouldn't he jump out and stop me?
And those audiences around here, shouldn’t you say something sarcastic? What do your blessing eyes mean?
Bai Mo showed a little regret, and continued to move forward with Ding Yumian, leaving her classmates behind.
Ding Yumian kept her eyes on him and saw the regret on his face. Although she could roughly guess what he was thinking, she still said calmly:
"You seem sorry?"
"...Is there? No." Bai Mo denied it. He was not that boring.
"How's the harvest these days?"
"It's okay, the main thing is to find treasures for the little wind spirit." Bai Mo said, summoning the little wind spirit and letting it play with its sister.
Ding Yumian saw the wind spirit up close for the first time and thought it was very cute. But after talking for a while, she looked at the silly man next to her and suddenly said:
"Who are Sister Mu and Sister Ai? How many sisters does it have?"
