Chapter 567 Irritability
When we arrived in Jiajiang, it was already late at night. Wang Xintong and I quietly abandoned the car in Jiajiang and then returned to school.
The guard at the school gate recognized Wang Xintong, so he let us in without hesitation.
It's past 11 p.m. now. I didn't disturb Du Xu, who was already resting, but instead went to Wang Xintong's dormitory and rested for the night.
I couldn't sleep that night because there were too many things to think about. Often, my resentment stemmed from not achieving our predetermined goals, like not killing Zhou Liang and Ye Cheng. But I was powerless to change this situation, which is why I felt helpless.
Do I still have a chance to turn things around?
I thought about this all night and don't know when I fell asleep. When I woke up again, it was already nine o'clock the next morning.
Everyone in the dormitory had left, leaving me all alone. Looking at the empty dormitory in front of me, I remembered when we first came to this school. That night, we cooked chicken soup here, ate chicken, sang songs, and thought that the future would be great.
But the harsh reality is far more terrifying than we imagine.
When I got outside the dormitory, I saw a lot of people chatting in the corridor.
My appearance aroused their curiosity. There were many unfamiliar faces in the school. They didn't seem to know me, and I naturally didn't know them either.
I was about to go downstairs when someone suddenly blocked my way. This guy looked very young, like a college student. He stopped me and said, "Hey, who are you? I've never seen you before. What are you doing out of Wang Xintong's dorm room?"
I frowned and stared at the young man in front of me, too lazy to waste words with him. I pushed his hand away and prepared to walk downstairs.
But the young man seemed a bit angry. He grabbed my clothes and said, "Hey, are you deaf? I'm asking you a question!"
I turned to him, frowned, and asked, "Do you know where Du Xu is?"
"Huh? Who?" the young man asked in confusion, then quickly came to his senses. "Don't fucking change the subject! I'm asking you, who the hell are you, and how did you get here!"
Because of the young man, more and more people gathered around to watch.
I was already in a bad mood, and their stares only made me angrier. So I pulled a gun from my back and pressed it against the young man's head, saying expressionlessly, "Let go."
When the young man saw the pistol in my hand, he panicked, but still managed to say, "Let me tell you, if you dare to shoot, you'll never leave this dormitory building."
I was too lazy to waste words with him, so I moved the gun down. The young man thought I was going to put the gun down, but I didn't. Instead, I aimed at his shoulder and fired a shot.
Bang!
Gunshots rang out throughout the school.
"Ah!" The young man clutched his shoulder and fell to the ground.
I didn't even glance at him, and turned to go downstairs.
As for the people around me, seeing that I was holding a gun, basically no one dared to come up and stop me.
The armed guards in the school seemed to have heard the commotion upstairs in the dormitory and promptly ran up the stairs. As soon as they came up, they all pointed their guns at me.
"Put down your gun!" shouted the leader.
Looking at so many people, none of whom recognized me, I felt a bit helpless and could only put down my gun and raise my hands.
They grabbed me decisively and took me to a dormitory room in the corner of the ground floor.
They tied themselves to a stool and then left.
I waited here calmly, thinking that Du Xu should appear soon.
But instead of Du Xu, a stranger appeared instead.
I don't know who this guy is. He looks to be in his thirties or forties, with a serious face, and his eyes look unfamiliar when he sees me.
I stared at him and asked, "Who are you?"
This guy pulled up a chair and sat down opposite me, saying, "I was just about to ask you that. Who are you? I don't recall anyone like you at school. When did you show up?"
I raised an eyebrow, not wanting to waste words with him, and said, "Where is Du Xu? I need to see him."
The guy sneered, "Du Xu? Are you dreaming?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Let me tell you, Du Xu is at the Jiangbei main campus, and this area is now under my jurisdiction. If you don't want to die, you'd better tell me honestly how you got into the school, who you are, and what your purpose is here!"
I frowned and stared at him, puzzled. Du Xu went to Jiangbei, so Du Xu no longer cared about things here?
It seems that Du Xu has already entered the upper echelons of Jiangbei. It seems that after what happened last time, Su Mu has come to his senses and has begun to give Du Xu more important responsibilities.
However, this has put me in a big problem. Almost no one in this school knows me. If Du Xu isn't here, how am I supposed to get out of here?
Seeing that I seemed dazed, the other person slapped me across the face and yelled, "Kid, listen to me carefully, tell me the truth!"
I stared at him and said, "You want to hear the truth, right?"
"Speak quickly!"
I said, "Okay, then I'll tell you the truth. My name is Lu Xiaonan, and I'm a doctor. A long time ago, this school was my territory. I don't know when you joined Jiangbei, but I can tell you very clearly that I have important matters to discuss with Du Xu and Su Mu. If this matter is delayed because of you, you will die a terrible death. And it won't be me who kills you, but Su Mu."
"Hmph, keep making things up, keep making things up." The other person didn't believe what I said.
I said, "Since you don't believe what I'm saying, then you might as well wait to die."
The guy got angry, pulled out a gun and pressed it against my head, yelling, "You little brat, you're threatening me, aren't you? Who would believe your nonsense? I'll give you one more chance. Tell me why you're here, or I'll shoot you dead."
I wasn't afraid. I said, "You can try. After I die, you'll definitely come down to join me soon. I'm not trying to scare you. If you have a brain, you can ask Du Xu and Su Mu if they recognize me. If they don't, then you can kill me. I have no objection."
This guy hesitated a bit.
Just then, the dormitory door was suddenly pushed open, and Wang Xintong, or rather Chu Yu, stood outside with a serious expression.
When the guy saw Wang Xintong at the door, he said, "Wang Xintong, what are you doing here? Get out."
Chu Yu ignored him, holding a walkie-talkie, and tossed it to him as soon as she came in, then came over to untie me.
