Chapter 206
[No.145: Ugh, can’t there be no mole? I’ll be the mole if needed.]
[No.146: Shonen shouldn’t have moles. Who agrees, who disagrees?]
[No.147 replying to No.146: Agree!]
[No.147 replying to No.146: Teacher’s right!]

Reading the post, I had a clear picture. Readers were close, narrowing the mole to a small pool. Revealing the mole’s identity wouldn’t draw the author’s attention.
These readers were sharp, guessing so accurately in the third dinsion. Unlike , they couldn’t directly sense the author’s mole clues.
After thinking, I started a new post.
[[Prophet Post] So Guesses on This Chapter]
[ProphetNo.0: First, the big question: the teacher mole’s likely Ye Lin. She’s sisters with the Purple-Haired Woman—obvious from their identical eye color, easy to guess, right?
After this, Ye Lin’s mole identity won’t stay hidden long. She might pull sothing big before leaving.
Su Bei’s Gear seems to have a guaranteed-damage Ability. His Gears never miss in past plots. Given how freely he uses them, this skill’s ntal Energy cost is probably low, letting him use it even after altering fates.
Lastly, Mu Tieren’s likely going the chanical mod route. With his evolved Ability, he won’t fall out of Class S—only getting stronger.]
Yes, I believed the teacher mole was Ye Lin. It was a guess, but I was 100% sure I was right.
The first ti I saw the Purple-Haired Woman, I thought she resembled Ye Lin, especially their eyes—practically identical. So, after the first monthly exam’s team battle, my first question to Ye Lin was whether she had a sister. Back then, I didn’t think she was a mole, just that she might have a hidden plot, like sisterly rivalry.
I’d suspected her in past events but lacked certainty. Only today, seeing the manga confirm the mole’s close tie to the Purple-Haired Woman, did I lock in Ye Lin’s mole status.
Surprising? Not really. Just a pity for Teacher ng and Teacher Lei.
But honestly, it wasn’t a big deal. Ye Lin was likely with “Black Flash” before eting them, so it wasn’t betrayal—just ng Huai and co.’s poor judgnt.
Similarly, I didn’t dislike Mo Xiaotian but disapproved of Zhou Renjie for the sa reason. Betrayal was unacceptable, but Mo Xiaotian didn’t betray—he was always “Black Flash.”
The bit about Mu Tieren was from him. He told Mu Scientist would mod his chanical body, possibly adding weapon upgrades.
They’d avoided this before to prevent Mu Tieren being seen as an outcast—robots faced rejection in human society, even forr humans.
Now, with his evolved Ability altering machinery, all his chanical mods could be attributed to his Ability. To the unaware, even shooting bullets barehanded would just be his Ability. Ȓ𝔞ɴő𝖇Ès̩

[No.16 replying to No.15: She was likely with ng Huai and Lei Ze’en then—how’d she contact “Black Flash”?]
[No.17: Dunno about else, but if Ye Lin joined “Black Flash” after enrolling, that’s clear betrayal. Even for a sister, I can’t accept it.]

Seeing no new content or objections to my post, I exited the forum satisfied. I’d done all I could—now to see how my new skill shaped up.
Closing the forum, with nothing tomorrow, I used “Dream Bubble” to study my Ability. I’d glimpsed it on the way, but not deeply. I sensed it had more to explore, and “Dream Bubble” was perfect now.
From past research, I was adept at studying new Abilities, with a clear thod: try all skills to see what changed.
In just two hours, I grasped the “Fate Trajectory” Ability thoroughly.
First was the known use: it let see a person’s next pointer action. I also found I could look backward, using ntal Energy to see a pointer’s past position.
The latter was less useful but could be clutch in specific cases.
Additionally, “Fate Trajectory” had an intriguing feature. When adjusting soone’s pointer, I could preview the outco, for both large and small pointers.
This was hugely useful. Adjusting pointers, especially large ones, only gave rough predictions, not precision.
For example, setting an opponent’s state to “Going Out” in the arena might an they’re knocked out or they knock out and leave. Now, previewing the outco let fine-tune the direction and adjust if it went off-track.
Overall, I was pleased with this Ability change. No flashy new powers or ga-changers, but for now, it was enough.
My Ability was already set; I just needed to strengthen and refine it. This change excelled in refinent.
After using “Dream Bubble,” I’d be weak for days. Luckily, with recent events, no tasks were likely, so I could use the prop boldly.
The next day in class, I slumped over my desk, half-listening to the teacher. As expected, the schedule was temporary, all academic classes—no physical activity, letting rest.
Interestingly, none of ng Huai’s trio taught these two days. They were gone all day, nowhere to be seen.
By dismissal, ng Huai still hadn’t shown, and Mu Tieren grew anxious. Thinking, he looked at Wu Jin, the only one with so Academy clout: “Wu Jin, know where the horoom teacher is? I need to discuss sothing.”
“Probably under investigation,” Wu Jin said. As the principal’s son, he was above mole suspicion, and Wu Di didn’t hide much from him.
No need to hide this— “Black Flash” likely knew the mole was being probed. They’d known since targeting Class S in the Nightmare Beast world that the mole couldn’t stay hidden.
At that, everyone looked over. No one was dumb; a mont’s thought clarified Wu Jin’s aning. ng Huai and co. were suspected, hence the investigation.
“No way it’s Teacher ng,” Mu Tieren’s eyes widened. “If he were a mole, we’d have been in trouble long ago.”
Wu Jin thought so too but couldn’t sway the Academy: “The truth will co out.”
aning, no need to rush—if ng Huai wasn’t the mole, the Academy wouldn’t fra him.
“So what do you need to discuss with him?” Zhao Xiaoyu asked curiously. “Maybe we can help. If it’s private, pretend I didn’t ask.”
Mu Tieren shook his head, expression complex: “Not sothing I can’t say. I just want to see my uncle. He’s my last blood relative, after all…”
Soft-hearted? No way—he tried to kill him. But now in prison, possibly facing execution, Mu Tieren wanted to see him before sentencing, to talk one last ti.
Though unlikely, if he could make his uncle see his wrongs, Mu Tieren would feel better.
They couldn’t help with this. Everyone was told to stay in Endless Ability Academy, both to prevent any student moles from leaking to “Black Flash” and to protect us. The mole likely knew they were exposed and might lash out recklessly.
“Wait a bit. It’s not safe out there. Boss Sun’s sentencing won’t be quick—no rush,” Zhao Xiaoyu comforted.
Fair point, but Mu Tieren still wanted to see his uncle soon. He had questions—about himself, his parents, those his uncle hard. Without answers, he couldn’t rest.
“Actually, I think outside’s safer than inside now,” Li Shu suddenly said, just as Mu Tieren was almost convinced.
As eyes turned to him, he elaborated: “The teachers keep us here to prevent the mole from going all-out to harm us. But the suspects are all stuck in school under scrutiny. Outside’s free of moles, no?”
It was a novel angle, and no one could refute it.
Jiang Tianming eyed Li Shu suspiciously: “Why’re you egging Class Monitor to go out?”
Judge soone’s intent not by words or actions but by outcos. Li Shu’s outco was rekindling Mu Tieren’s interest in leaving.
At that, Li Shu put on an exaggerated wronged look: “Tianming, how could you think that? I’m just stating facts.”
Jiang Tianming gave a deadpan stare but stayed sharp. Thinking, his expression soured, and he stopped engaging Li Shu, turning to Mu Tieren: “Academy’s safer than outside. Laughter’s right—wait a few days.”
He’d been pondering Li Shu’s motive. Mu Tieren had no feud with him, and whether he saw Boss Sun was irrelevant.
But recalling Li Shu’s mole comnt, Jiang Tianming got it. Li Shu likely wanted to use Mu Tieren as bait to see if our class had a mole.
Mu Tieren nodded silently. He wasn’t dumb—though Li Shu’s words tempted him, staying in school with teachers was safer than sneaking out unprotected.
His life was hard-won, saved by his comrades. He wouldn’t risk it lightly, wasting their efforts.
Seeing nothing interesting, I slowly got up to head back to the dorm. After yesterday’s “Dream Bubble,” I was exhausted, craving rest.
At the door, I ran into a grim-faced ng Huai. He was about to tell to return to class but noticed sothing: “What’s wrong with you?”
I blinked: “Nothing?”
“Nothing, and you’re this weak?” ng Huai frowned, noting my state, then rolled his eyes. “Fine, you know your limits. Go back now—I’ve got sothing to say.”
If it were Mu Tieren, Jiang Tianming, or Qi Huang—students with strong duty and pride—ng Huai would’ve grilled them to ensure they weren’t hiding harmful issues.
But it was .
Who was I? Stubborn, first to vanish in danger, prioritizing myself. For such a life-loving student, ng Huai wasn’t worried my weakness was serious. If it were, I’d have been the first to seek a teacher, not hide it.
All students heading out were herded back to class. ng Huai stepped to the podium: “Though the Academy’s locked down, don’t worry—it’ll end soon, by Friday at latest. You can still go ho on weekends. It just ans no eating out for a few days.”
Endless Ability Academy was boarding, with weekends off, so the lockdown barely affected life. That’s why the Academy dared enforce it broadly.
“Teacher, I want to visit my uncle at the Ability Governnt,” Mu Tieren seized the chance, raising his hand. “It won’t take long. If it’s risky, a teacher can co with .”
ng Huai pondered: “Co with later. No one else leaves school privately—consequences are on you.”
“Uh, so who’s the mole?” Ai Baozhu asked curiously, seeing him seem approachable. Since ng Huai was back, his suspicion was likely cleared, so asking was fine.
Seeing everyone’s curious looks, ng Huai’s face darkened, his tone stiff: “Don’t know. Curb your curiosity. You’ll be told when the mole’s found.”
He left with Mu Tieren, leaving Ai Baozhu and others exchanging glances. Zhao Xiaoyu mused: “Looks like the mole’s… close to the teacher.”
Only a few were close to ng Huai. They exchanged looks, hardly believing it. Neither Lei Ze’en nor Ye Lin seed like moles—if it was one of them, it was shocking.
Only I and Feng Lan stayed calm. Feng Lan was naturally reserved, rarely showing emotion.
My calm was suspicious.
ng Huai’s sharp gaze caught . He raised an eyebrow, fake-smiling: “Su Bei, co with too.”
Hearing him call , I realized my calmness had raised suspicion. This trip was likely to quiz on the mole’s identity.
How should I answer? Tell the truth or keep playing dumb?
The three of us left the classroom under Class S' gazes. As we walked, a smile crept into my eyes. Not just —Mu Tieren showed a weird expression, stifling a laugh.
If we both noticed, ng Huai definitely did. His face darkened as he spun around, barking at the empty hallway: “Stop hiding!”
No one erged.
ng Huai snapped again: “Think I’m bluffing? Barely grown and playing tracker! Think your footsteps are that stealthy with so many of you?”
