Chapter 104
Due to a special incident occurring within the practical competition arena of this inter-school competition, the incident's severity remains confidential. This has triggered the Linglu Psychic Association's emergency response mechanism. We are hereby notified that this inter-school competition has been terminated early. The total points will be calculated based on the total score of each school as of the end of the last practical round.
We deeply apologize and express our deepest regret for the unexpected and peculiar incident that caused the competition to be suspended early. Following several days of discussions held by the joint office of the four universities, we solemnly promise to compensate all participants within the next 15 business days, wholeheartedly making up for the losses incurred by those who traveled so far to participate.
In the world that Jiang Yunu used to live in, she often came across a type of "explosion" when surfing the Internet, which generally meant "After xxxx, everything exploded."
Now, she can say with real experience that "when this official notice came out, all the contestants in the inter-school competition were shocked."
The dormitory area was in an uproar as a result of the explosion. Even the canteen for foreign guests was in an uproar, and there was a lot of discussion about ending the game early.
"What the hell?"
"The game really stopped early??"
"Why? The notice said it was a special incident. What happened in the last practice round?"
Some people are more concerned about the compensation for losses mentioned in the notice.
"Compensation will be made within 15 working days... What kind of compensation?"
"Who knows? After training for so long and staying here for so many days, and then having to go back before even getting a chance to play - who knows what kind of compensation the joint office will decide to give?"
Whether they were concerned about compensation or discussing special accidents, most of the contestants were full of resentment and were in a bad mood when talking about this topic.
But everyone just complained.
Students seem to be such a group. Even if they have complaints, they will still obey the instructions obediently, and follow the instructions of teachers and parents while complaining.
When this notice came out, the patients in the temporary hospitalization area had basically recovered and were no longer hospitalized. They all returned to their respective buildings and teams.
Xie Shi finally let go of his arm, which had been hanging for almost a week. He crossed his arms, hugged them in front of his chest, and sneered at the content of the notice.
"I knew it." Master Xie said in a tone as if he had seen through everything.
Zhou Jinxue generally doesn't like to pay attention to Xie Shi, or rather, she equally doesn't like to pay attention to everyone except Jiang Yunu.
But after reading the notice today, the girl with a plain face had a strange look in her eyes. When she heard the voice, she turned her head to look at Xie Shi.
"You just know it?" Zhou Jinxue said.
Xie Shi restrained himself slightly in front of a senior like Zhou Jinxue. "What I mean is, this result is pretty much the same as what my family... and I suspected."
Jiang Yunu swore with her ears that she clearly heard Young Master Xie say "my home" at first, but he changed his words at the last minute.
Zhou Jinxue said calmly, "Yeah."
With just one word, Jiang Yunu suddenly felt that Senior Zhou had actually anticipated this result a long time ago, and the way she anticipated it... was probably similar to Young Master Xie's.
"Senior." As the two of them walked into the small corridor leading to the room, Jiang Yunu saw that there was no one around and poked the senior's arm with her index finger, "Did you also know something a long time ago?"
Talking to Zhou Jinxue was simply more convenient than talking to Xie Shi. Zhou Jinxue never played dirty with Jiang Yunu. When she heard the question, she ushered her into her room, closed the door, and then told her the truth: "My family revealed some news while I was in the hospital. They told me over the visitor's phone that this league might not be able to go on."
Jiang Yunu: "Hmm."
A hint of nervousness crossed Zhou Jinxue's calm, pale face. "I'm not unwilling to share this with you right away, but I don't think it's necessary to share this uncertain news in advance and disturb your rest."
It’s good to talk to senior students. Senior students may even worry that they didn’t share the news in the first place and make junior students unhappy.
Jiang Yunu's heart was filled with excitement. He shook his head fiercely at the nervous senior student, "It doesn't matter! It really doesn't make any difference to me whether I know this news earlier or later."
She also hasn't asked about her friends' "family news channels."
What she cared about most in the league termination notice was actually the part that the official hadn't announced—for example, what happened to the "mechanical elemental beast" and what were the results of its detailed examination?
This part seems to be information that even the partners' family news channels have failed to disclose.
So, who could she find to try to find out about this part? Jiang Yunu was thinking about the candidate in her mind, and the first person that came to her mind was the little golden-haired Xue Zhanxing, whom she had not seen for a while.
Xue Zhanxing's family is a major shareholder of Songnan. The special metal beast that appeared this time is definitely related to Songnan School. Xue Zhanxing's family must know more about the inside story... But whether this inside story will be told to Master Xue, a minor, and whether Master Xue is willing to reveal it to outsiders, these are two closely related issues.
If Young Master Xue couldn't get any information, and even if he himself wasn't at the stage where his family could be informed of this, then...
Could she just go and ask someone who knows the whole story for advice?
Jiang Yunu quickly searched in her mind for someone who was 100% aware of the situation, and then suddenly, a bolder idea popped into her mind—
Why doesn't she just try her luck with Coach Su?
Su Xiuchun must be the one who knows the inside story 100%. There is no one here who knows more about the details of the special incident than Coach Su.
Although Coach Su might not be willing to reveal anything to Jiang Yunu, and might send Jiang Yunu away with just a few words, it wouldn't be a waste to give it a try!
It's nothing more than being sent away!
Jiang Yunu does what he wants to do and is very proactive.
Thirty minutes after this thought came to her mind, a little girl with white hair had already walked into the administrative building and fumbled to press the button for the highest floor in the passenger elevator.
Perhaps the access key she had applied for when she came back to the administrative building last time was still valid. Normally, ordinary students' terminal access rights would not allow them to directly reach the top floor. However, Jiang Yunu's personal terminal scanned it successfully, and the high-speed elevator took her all the way up, allowing her to step onto the dark red carpet inlaid with gold thread that covered the entire top floor of the administrative building.
Jiang Yunu walked through the senior conference hall by memory and touched the door of the "senior lounge" with the same golden sign hanging on it.
During the days when Su Xiuchun came to Songnan School to intervene in the special incidents, she stayed directly in the senior lounge of the administrative building. This news was mentioned to her by Teacher Lei when Jiang Yunuo asked Lei Daniel to give her tutoring on the Superpower Association.
However, the girl who reached the door of the premium lounge was a little troubled.
——She didn't see any electronic doorbell at the door of this lounge.
Is the so-called high-end lounge designed to ensure that the people inside have complete freedom to rest without being disturbed by the outside world, so only the owner is allowed to enter and exit at will and no outside visitors are received?
Jiang Yunu almost touched the outer wall of the house, even considering the possibility of an invisible doorbell, and even used the traditional visiting method - knocking three times on the heavy door panel.
There was silence behind the door.
Only the sound of her polite knock on the door could be heard far away in the long corridor.
Jiang Yunu: "..."
In short, since Su Xiuchun definitely hasn't left Songnan yet, she still needs to use this lounge and needs to go in or out sooner or later.
The white-haired girl crossed her legs and sat down at the door of the senior lounge.
Inspector Ye Li came to see Su Xiuchun about something. He knew Su Xiuchun had a bad habit of staying up late, often falling asleep between 2 and 3 a.m. local time, so he often had to catch up on sleep during the day. Generally, if there was nothing essential, he wouldn't disturb Su Xiuchun during his sleep, only calling for him when his scheduled trip was almost over.
As luck would have it, something happened today, requiring Instructor Su to end his sleep early. Inspector Ye Li walked easily to the entrance of the senior lounge, ready to swipe his personal terminal to enter.
"Are you here to see Coach Su?"
Someone suddenly said this under his legs.
Jiang Yunu's voice was originally normal, and the tone was normal, but in a long and silent corridor, in a relatively closed environment, where he thought there was no one else, he suddenly heard a little girl's voice asking so softly.
Inspector Ye Li: “…”
The serious man in Jiang Yunu's eyes suddenly staggered and hit the door with a "bang".
Jiang Yunu: "..."
This sound was much louder than Jiang Yunu's polite knock on the door just now, as if he was deliberately breaking into the lounge.
Before Jiang Yunu could say a word, the door to the luxury lounge was opened from the inside.
"What are you doing?"
Su Xiuchun's lazy voice came from the door.
Inspector Ye Li's entire body weight was still on the door panel, and he fell inward along the door that suddenly opened. Su Xiuchun took him over and placed him beside her. Her eyes were kept low the whole time, fixed on Jiang Yunu who was still sitting at the door.
"Student Jiang," Coach Su said, "Why did you come to see me?"
She yawned half-drowsily, and a sharp sense of laziness that penetrated her whole body put her in a state where she could respond to emergencies at any time.
"Someone is giving you trouble?" Su Xiuchun asked, "So you came to me for help?"
Inspector Ye Li stood firmly beside Director Su. Only then did he see who had asked the question just now. Jiang Yunu could read an indescribable expression on his face.
Women who can achieve great things must learn to tolerate men who make a fuss. Jiang Yunu first politely apologized to Inspector Ye Li: "I'm sorry, I was sitting here and suddenly spoke. Did I scare you?"
After apologizing, Jiang Yunu turned to Su Xiuchun and said, "I have indeed encountered a little problem. I wonder if you can help me with intelligence information?"
