Under normal circumstances, during class ti, your phone is set to vibrate only. Only extrely special calls would have a sound, and Gong Wu is one of those people.
As if the bird’s nest head on the podium didn’t exist, you pressed the answer button and stood up to leave the classroom, your voice slightly lowered, "What’s up?"
As soon as you stepped out of the classroom, Gong Wu’s voice ca through the phone, "Captain, Dong Zi just told that last night at midnight, soone invaded Tianshu, stealing a lot of military secrets and accessing the private information of over a hundred high-level officers, including your top-secret file."
Logically speaking, your rank isn’t very high, and you’re considered half-retired now, so your information wouldn’t be of much use to others.
"Our squad has been disbanded for three years now. Theoretically, no one should be targeting us, but to be safe, Captain, you should be a bit more cautious during this ti."
"Hmm," you nodded.
Gong Wu continued, "There’s one more thing."
"Speak."
"Due to the events of last night, the Military Departnt has activated an ergency plan, and all stolen information has been completely destroyed, including yours, Captain. Dong Zi told that Commander Du seems to intend to establish a ’Qin Level’ file for you."
"Qin?"
Hearing that term, you were stunned. The Huaxia Army’s military archives have two main components: one is the "Tianshu," where the information theft happened last night, and the other is known as "Chasing Deer."
The biggest difference between Chasing Deer and Tianshu is that all records in Chasing Deer are written docunts with backups in the major military districts. This information can only be read by generals, and each reading requires logging the reader’s na and the reason for reading. Currently, Chasing Deer ranks from highest to lowest are Huaxia, Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, Tang, Song, and Ming.
Soone might ask, why is there no Yuan or Qing? This question was addressed when the Chasing Deer archive was established: one was incomplete rule, the other was ultimate disgrace, not even worth ntioning.
Since the Grand Ancestor founded the nation, over sixty years have passed. Over these years, Huaxia officers have changed frequently. Having your file included in Chasing Deer is a great honor for anyone. At first, you felt a bit excited, but you quickly cald down and asked Gong Wu, "We both know Commander Du’s personality well. There must be another motive behind this sudden action. During this period, you and Dong Zi keep an eye out for and notify at once with any news."
"Okay," Gong Wu suddenly fell silent.
"Is there more?" Being familiar with Gong Wu’s character, when you heard his silence, you asked directly, "You know I dislike procrastination, get to the point."
Understanding your personality well, Gong Wu finally spoke up, "Captain, actually, the brothers all hope you’ll return. With your skills and background, within a couple of decades, you could lead us out of the country and avenge the ancestors, achieving the Grand Ancestor’s legacy!"
"I don’t wish to hear words like these again, let’s leave it at that."
With that, you hung up the phone.
Turning around, you initially wanted to enter the classroom, but stood at the door for ten seconds, suddenly turning to walk briskly away.
"Impressive!"
Xiao Feng and several others secretly admired you. From their perspective, among all the high school students in Great Huaxia, they probably won’t find another like you. Being in the sa class with a person like this, becoming classmates, is truly a joy in life.
Wei Bihui also glanced towards the door and said to Chen Susu, "The person you like is indeed unique."
Hearing this, Chen Susu smiled tenderly, her smile like a flower, like wine, intoxicating.
However, among the students in the class, only Yan Zisu observed your back with a hint of lancholy. She wasn’t lanting for herself but concerned that you’re carrying too much.
The relationship between Yan Zisu and you was almost confird, but she still had regrets because you never spoke about your past to her.
Understanding and considerate Yan Zisu knew it wasn’t you intentionally hiding but not wanting your past to burden her.
In others’ eyes, soone like you may seem outstanding, but to Yan Zisu, you harbor more helplessness and so concerns that you cannot easily confide in others.
Yet, Yan Zisu never questioned you. She’s waiting for the day you willingly share, so that both hearts can genuinely lean on one another.
However, Yan Zisu didn’t know when that day would co.
This mont, you only wanted to find a relatively quiet place to be alone with your thoughts.
Leaving the school building, you subconsciously moved toward a quieter area and naturally arrived at the pavilion beside the library, sheltered by greenery.
But just as you stepped into the little pavilion, you discovered soone was already there.
The person looked at you, and seed a little surprised, but then quickly laughed, "It turns out you really are a problematic student."
Sitting in the pavilion was none other than your literature teacher, Wang Posuo.
"Teacher."
You didn’t feel like wandering around anymore, and just sat down beside Wang Posuo.
"Skipping class, perhaps you’re here to see off?"
Wang Posuo smiled at you.
Hearing this, you were slightly startled. Among all the teachers, besides your mom, you had the best impression of Wang Posuo, and from him, you’ve sensed a calm yet profound power, clearly indicating he’s not as simple as he appears.
"Teacher, are you leaving?"
"So, you’re skipping class, though we seem to be quite fated." Wang Posuo smiled at you, "I’ve gotten old, can’t teach anymore, and my spouse is also advanced in age, I can’t be away, handed in my resignation a week ago, today’s my official retirent."
"But didn’t you say you would accompany us until graduation?"
"Yes, it’s my first broken promise in life, but there’s no other way. My spouse’s health is declining day by day, I must be by their side."
You nodded, understanding Wang Posuo’s heart, and softly said, "You will always be a respected teacher to ."
Wang Posuo gently patted your shoulder with a smile, "Indeed, a disciple grandchild of the Ghost Hand, you’re a kid with deep affections."
Hearing this, you looked at Wang Posuo in surprise, "You knew my grandteacher?"
"I t him a few tis back in the day, we’re sowhat half friends. Although our ambitions differed, I didn’t know him well." Wang Posuo looked at you with an unwavering smile, "You must be curious how I guessed your sect. Actually, it’s nothing much, I have a unique ability, so rest assured, others won’t be able to notice anything."
You remained silent for a mont, then said to Wang Posuo, "Teacher, do you want to say goodbye to everyone?"
