Li Lechen was speechless: his intuition was right after all. This so-called annual physical examination wasn't for protecting citizens' health at all; it was actually some kind of special control. Otherwise, there would be severe penalties for not participating.
"So what do I need to do now?" Li Lechen asked.
"All you need to do now is confirm that you have received the notification," the smart assistant explained. "Once you confirm that you have received the notification, if you do not attend the physical examination before the specified date, the law enforcement machine will be able to take action against you."
"......"
Having said all he could say, Li Lechen was already starting to feel that having such a live-streaming system that could connect to the future was actually quite a dangerous thing.
But regardless, since we're already on this pirate ship, we still need to try our best to get off safely and return with as much as possible. At least, a smart assistant is great for cheating, and you can even win a prize or something.
So I read the notification carefully and considered that I had received it.
I calculated the time, and there are still four days until the physical examination, so I should be able to make some preparations.
So he got out of bed, unusually getting up earlier than Luo Li. Lin Kun had just finished washing up.
I glanced at Liu Yu's bed; it was still empty.
Since the charity event at the small theater that night, Li Lechen has not seen Liu Yu again, and he has even missed classes.
Some people say that he was expelled for violating school rules, but Wu Qunfang still comes to class every day, so Liu Yu shouldn't be the first to be punished.
Some say that with Liu Shifu Group about to go public, Liu Yu's father is taking him around to social events. Who knows what the activities of the wealthy are like?
"Is the health knowledge lecture in the morning mandatory?" Lin Kun suddenly asked.
Li Lechen looked completely bewildered: "What kind of hygiene knowledge lecture?"
"Don't the top students have to attend this lecture? Isn't it said that all students have to attend?" Lin Kun wondered, then muttered to himself, "The top students are definitely treated differently. These kinds of lectures are such a waste of time; it's better to just memorize a few more words."
"What kind of safety lecture?"
Li Lechen was quite curious and asked another question.
"The notification came last night in the main lecture hall. They said it was specially invited by Principal Jia, and it was some leader from the Health Bureau."
"Why bother with centralized knowledge lectures? Just hand out some cards, right?" Li Lechen said, puzzled.
"It's probably because of the food poisoning incident last time, so the school is taking it more seriously," Lin Kun said helplessly. "The key thing is that the notice said we have to sign in, and it will be counted as part of our political and ideological performance."
"Political and ideological scores aren't included in the college entrance exam, so why be so nervous?"
"If even ideological and political education can't reach an A, we might be subjected to humanitarian destruction," Luo Li, still in bed, suddenly leaned down and replied, startling Li Lechen and Lin Kun.
Although it wouldn't actually be destroyed by humanitarianism, the sign-in was a fact, so even though Lin Kun was extremely unwilling to waste his time memorizing vocabulary on such a thing, he still went.
Luo Li was naturally going too. He felt he had gotten a good deal by attending this boring lecture instead of morning reading.
There was no reason for Li Lechen not to participate.
After waiting for Luo Li for a while, the three of them went downstairs together to the main lecture hall.
There were quite a few people on the road, all heading towards the main lecture hall.
"I heard that Principal Jia was arrested last night," a girl whispered to the person next to her.
As they happened to be passing by, Li Lechen and his friends quickly slowed down and followed the girls closely, listening intently to their gossip.
Another girl said, "Was he arrested yesterday morning? Some people said they saw it with their own eyes. He was in plainclothes. The case might be very serious."
"I heard it's about embezzlement; someone filed a formal complaint."
"What I heard was that a reporter was investigating something else and that led to this."
"Hasn't this kind of thing been circulating for a few days? It was Liu Yu who said it himself, 100,000, he received 100,000 from their family."
"That's just a rumor, right? That Liu Yu has hysteria, and the school later clarified that it was false."
"Do you believe the school's denial? There's no doubt that Wu Qunfang is pregnant, right? Once it's said out loud, it must be true."
"But it's certain that Principal Jia was arrested. The person who told me that she happened to go to Principal Jia's office yesterday to deliver some documents, and then two other people came."
"Then what?"
"Of course, we can't leave her inside, but Principal Jia was supposed to participate in yesterday afternoon's fire drill, but she didn't. It must be because she was arrested."
Upon hearing this, the girls suddenly realized what was going on.
Indeed, during yesterday afternoon's fire drill, Jia Chenggong was supposed to give a few words at the beginning and then emphasize the key points at the end, but Cao Wenming was replaced at the last minute, and he didn't appear at all.
Has he really been arrested?
"That doesn't make sense!" another girl said. "What's with this hygiene lecture this morning? We were notified last night, and the lecturer was said to be invited by Principal Jia, wasn't he?"
"Go and see for yourself. If Jia Chenggong didn't show up this morning, he's definitely been arrested."
"Tsk tsk, he's going to jail right after becoming the principal."
"Shh! This is still uncertain."
Li Lechen and Luo Li exchanged bewildered glances. Compared to these girls, their information was incredibly limited. At least they hadn't heard anything about Jia Chenggong being kidnapped. But that didn't make sense either; Class Seven always seemed to be the first to know the latest breaking news, like the big juicy gossip about Wu Qunfang.
However, ever since the whole school knew about Wu Qunfang and Liu Yu's affair, Wu Qunfang has kept a low profile these past few days, and hasn't even raised her voice.
Moreover, since the subject of this gossip is Wu Qunfang's uncle, it's even less likely that the gossip would come from her mouth.
The lecture was supposed to start at 7:30, but because attendees were notified that they needed to sign in and that attendance would be included in their political and ideological grades, the place was already packed with people by 7:00.
Although there were many people, the order was very good, and each class sat in its designated spot. It's worth noting that forty or fifty people, including many first and second-year high school students and teachers, worked until after 11 pm last night to prepare for this morning's lecture.
Jia Chenggong was having breakfast with Hu Shuo, the deputy director of the Health Bureau. In about ten minutes, Hu Shuo would give a lecture on hygiene to the physical education teachers and students of No. 2 Middle School.
"Thank you for your hard work today."
As Jia Chenggong served Hu Shuo a bowl of porridge, he also pushed an inconspicuous envelope over.
Hu glanced at the envelope; it was quite thick.
Based on his experience of lecturing around, there should be at least 10,000 yuan involved. Compared to the normal 500 to 1,000 yuan for a lecture, this amount is definitely substantial.
Of course, lecture fees are legitimate income; offering higher fees simply demonstrates the lecturer's competence and ability to command such high rates. It's worth noting that many experts and professors charge tens of thousands of yuan per lecture.
Thinking about it this way, I immediately felt at ease.
