Chapter 11 I'm here to learn!
"W-what surveillance?" Xia Linxing stuttered.
"What?" Xie Tinglan looked at Xia Linxing leisurely, "Don't you know that all public areas are equipped with recording cameras?"
Of course Xia Linxing knew this!
He just couldn't understand why, at this hour, when not only the other staff members but even the most diligent trainees were asleep, someone was still there! Just by chance! By chance! Someone had caught him right there on the surveillance camera!
System 999 was also shocked!
It has indeed confirmed all the surveillance, but the problem is - there are no surveillance cameras installed in the control room!
Therefore, System 999 thought of confirming the safety of the corridor in advance, and also thought of "destroying the body and eliminating the evidence" (destroying the surveillance) after the incident, but it did not expect this "present tense"!
How could someone, without any reason, stay awake in the middle of the night just to sit in front of a surveillance camera and arrest someone?!
Couldn't he just come back the next day to check? Wasn't he afraid of sitting there all night in vain?
So angry! System 999 was filled with resentment towards Xie Tinglan.
It even wanted to report a bug to the main system, asking the main system to check whether the protagonist of this world had any serious illness!
Xie Tinglan looked at Xia Linxing, who was hesitating, stammering, and looking around, and took a step forward to pick up the folder that Xia Linxing had been holding in his hand but then dropped on the ground in surprise.
With a "rustle", he quickly flipped through the folder.
Xia Linxing had already completely stiffened when Xie Tinglan bent down to pick up the folder he had dropped. While Xie Tinglan was looking down at the file, he tiptoed a step towards the door.
But before he could take the second step, a "huge monster" blocked the way between him and the door.
The "giant" had finished flipping through the documents and, relying on his height, looked down at Xia Linxing: "Why, you want to run away?"
"No, no, no!" Xia Linxing was so panicked that her eyelashes trembled. She shook her head quickly and took small steps back.
But his eyes couldn't help but keep glancing towards the door, his eyes full of longing for the world outside and for freedom.
I want to go home (dormitory)QAQ
"Since you don't plan to go back, why don't you talk about this outside?" Xie Tinglan held up the folder and shook it in the air.
"You stayed up late at night and secretly came to the office to look through this 'First Stage Performance Registration Form'. What were you thinking of doing?"
The folders suddenly made a rustling sound, and Xia Linxing shuddered.
"What, what should I do, 999?" Xia Linxing tried to seek help off the field.
They are now caught red-handed!
I don’t know if it was to add pressure to Xia Linxing, but Xie Tinglan walked towards Xia Linxing step by step while asking.
The deliberately slowed footsteps approached step by step, as if stepping on Xia Linxing's heart.
With a "bang", Xia Linxing's lower back hit the table as he kept retreating.
Now, Xia Linxing is in tears: the "criminal suspect" Xiao Xia has no way to escape this time QAQ.
"Why aren't you talking?"
Although "Suspect Xiao Xia" had no way to escape, he was unable to stop "Officer Xie" from approaching step by step.
Xie Tinglan looked at Xia Linxing with a bit of evil amusement as he was in a panic, wanting to escape but unable to do so helplessly. He felt that the disgust in his heart that had always been caused by (the previous) Xia Linxing had dissipated.
At least Xia Linxing's bewildered look is much more pleasing to the eye than his previous pretentious look.
"I, I, I..." Xia Linxing stammered. After racking his brains for a long time with System 999, he finally came up with a reason that seemed a little more reasonable: "I'm here to study!"
Xia Linxing held her chin high and said, "I don't have any experience (in talent shows), so I'm just going to learn how others prepare for their first stage!"
That's right! Xia Linxing nodded vigorously in his heart, trying to brainwash himself: He came here just to study, this is a sign of being studious, he has no need to feel guilty! Come on, Xia Linxing, stand up straight and be confident!
"Really..." Xie Tinglan's voice was cold. "Then why didn't you just ask the staff or other trainees? Why did you have to come to the office alone in the middle of the night when no one was around, oh, to 'study'?"
"That's because...that's because..." Xia Linxing's eyes darted around and his brain started working rapidly.
Got it!
"That's because—I don't care about my reputation?!"
"What?" Xie Tinglan was stunned.
Having found a reasonable excuse, Xia Linxing became more confident and put her hands on her waist. "If I ask the staff and other trainees, won't it mean that I don't understand the program at all? What if I'm the only one asking, won't I be the only one who is stupid and foolish?"
Xia Linxing spoke more and more fluently, and even began to believe it himself: "I will never take the initiative to hand over the handle to others!"
Xie Tinglan looked at the other person's "I'm very smart" look and felt his fingers itching.
Xia Linxing, who had been secretly watching Xie Tinglan out of the corner of her eye, caught Xie Tinglan's distraction and immediately seized the opportunity: "Now that I know what the first stage means, I'll go back!"
Xia Linxing took advantage of Xie Tinglan's distraction and ducked down to nimbly slip past him.
"Good night, Teacher Xie!"
Xia Linxing, who had escaped Xie Tinglan's suppression range, flew to the door in two or three steps like a light feather. He even tripped over the carpet at the door because he ran too fast and almost fell out.
He rushed back to the trainee dormitory building with no stopping steps, and then tiptoed back to his own dormitory like a thief.
"Finally, I'm back..." Xia Linxing climbed onto the bed stealthily and lay there like a little salted fish.
"Tonight was such an exciting night..." He almost thought he would never come back!
The oppressive feeling of the protagonist is so terrifying!
"Baby, you did great!"
System 999 praised Xia Linxing fiercely. Although interrupted by Xie Tinglan, Xia Linxing and System 999 still managed to see the name of the show that Shen Sibai was going to perform.
Their mission tonight was successfully completed!
"What we have to do now is to familiarize ourselves with the song." The first stage recording was about to begin, and Xia Linxing could only cram at the last minute.
Even if the original owner has bribed the relevant staff to do the editing and audio correction when it is broadcast, at least its cub has to match the lip movements!
"Baby, I'm going to play your song for you now..."
System 999 stole a dormitory network, turned on the Internet function, searched for the name of the song they had just seen, and then very skillfully clicked on the song with the highest number of plays.
"Just listen and familiarize yourself with it first... We'll practice hard tomorrow!"
"Oh, okay..." Xia Linxing nodded obediently, curled up in the quilt and listened carefully.
I don’t know why, but as Xia Linxing listened, her whole body slowly turned red.
"Baby! What's wrong with you?" System 999 was horrified.
"No, nothing..." Xia Linxing closed her eyes with her cheeks flushed.
But when it was late at night and everyone was asleep, the things that had happened before started to replay in his mind like a kaleidoscope.
The more embarrassing it is, the more I can't help but think about it.
Although he didn't hear much of the song, what had just happened kept replaying in Xia Linxing's mind.
"Hmm..."
Xia Linxing silently pulled up the quilt to cover her red face.
