I asked even though I knew the answer: “What do you an by point of no return?”
“... Did you know you almost killed soone?”
“Hmph, who cares if I kill scum like them?”
I gazed at her through the glass of beer to let the class leader know I was not joking around.
Behind the orange-yellow liquid, her seriousness was warped into a ridiculous shape as if it was a distorting mirror. I could not help but laugh strangely a couple of tis.
Without warning, the class leader stood up with a woosh and slapped on the face!
I was dumbstruck and I completely forget about how I should respond. I could only see the resentnt written on her face for failing to et her expectations.
The few custors who were in the shop all turned around to look at us, and they started to whisper in quiet voices, so the class leader bashfully sat down.
“Are you awake now?” She still used a teacher or an elder’s tone of voice to speak to .
I covered my left cheek that was slapped. I felt more humiliation compared to physical pain. I narrowly was not able to control myself, and I was almost going to splash all my beer at her.
But if I thought about it carefully, the class leader also received quite a bit of shock tonight. She could be forcing herself to maintain a calm appearance right now, and she might have slapped in hysteria to release so of her fear. I’m a generous person, so I’ll let her off for the ti being...
“Do you know why I hit you?” She asked.
“Cause you’re scared!” I said, “You were almost taken for turns. If I were you, I would also act a bit crazy to release so...”
“Don’t say vulgar words in front of !”
I laughed and tossed a peanut in my mouth, “Vulgar? I already toned it down! In our circle...”
The class leader interrupted again, “This is where the problem lies! You always unconsciously associate yourself with the local hoodlums and use their logic to think about things. You feel honor instead of sha —— it’s dangerous if this goes on!”
Dangerous? Where would I get fighting strength if it wasn’t dangerous? If I didn’t co to save you from the danger today, were you expecting Chi from Chi’s Sweet Ho to help you fight off the bad guys?
“Class leader, don’t be so childish.” I said sincerely with a desire to educate, “Society isn’t as simple as our class, your childish sense of justice won’t work in society!”
“I know... I know.” The class leader’s eyes darkened, “I know that what we experienced today was only the tip of the iceberg of the dark side of society, but...”
“But, it’s because all kinds of evil exist in society, that’s why we need police, right?”
Eh? Why did the topic of our conversation shift to your future profession? Are you intending to sweep all of the criminals of DongShan city into the trash after you beco a captain in the criminal police division?
“Hey hey hey, class leader, being a cop isn’t as easy as you think it is. Especially criminal police, they have to put their lives on the line!”
In the beginning, the class leader was persuading to not be a hooligan, but now I was persuading the class leader to not beco a police officer. This developnt was a bit baffling.
The class leader looked as if she was hurt, “What? You think a female can’t be a cop?”
That’s not the reason. It’s just that you have great grades and great organizational skills. You can easily get into a good high school and university. Then after you graduate, you could be a successful female white-collar worker, what would you have against that? Why bother doing sothing dangerous like becoming a police officer?
“I’m not interested in becoming a regular police officer. If I was joining the police, I would beco a criminal police officer who handles large cases!” The class leader supplented with sparkling eyes.
“Why? Are you not afraid of criminals even worse than the ones you t today?”
The corners of the class leader’s raised into a slight smile, “Criminal police get guns! If sothing happens, I can legally use a gun! Let’s not even ntion those two, even if it was you who wanted to do sothing to , I could shoot both your legs and make you kneel and beg!”
We don’t even have to wait until that day, since you already illegally own a gun. If you wanted to, you can blow off soone’s head at any ti.
Also, isn’t your imagination too rich? Why would I act like that in the future? Do you think I would throw myself towards any female police officer with long hair? Then, after being shot two tis, I would beg for my life while bawling?
Stop dreaming! Even if you have amazing senses, even tigers have to sleep! I only have to quietly sneak near you and mount a sneak attack from behind...
“You’re thinking about how to mount a sneak attack on the future , right?” The class leader drank a mouthful of clear water and said emotionlessly.
“.....”
“You’re already treating yourself like a criminal. Even if your initial desires are good, if you keep putting importance on violence and carrying out vigilantism, one day, you’ll beco an actual criminal!”
“.....”
“If at that ti you land in my hands, don’t say I never warned you!”
After she finished her sentence, her hawk-like black pupils released an imposing aura. It was as if I could see the awe-inspiring future female police officer who commanded nurous subordinates.
But I was still unwilling to accept it, “What you say sounds good in theory, but today you were almost... Almost been done in, how co no brave police officers ca to save you?”
“That only shows that the current system is not perfect, but you can’t use this one incident to dismiss police as a whole! I would say the main problem is that there are too few young people nowadays who are willing to devote themselves to public security!”
That’s natural. Nowadays, most young people are an only child, and they are treated like treasure by their parents. Since being a criminal police officer is so dangerous, how many parents would want their children to join? Even if they did beco a police officer, it would be a traffic police officer, or a civil police officer. You wouldn’t even find a single person out of a group of a hundred people who has as much excess sense of justice as you!
“I have an excess sense of justice?” The class leader was unconvinced and asked in response, “Do you have the right to say that about ? Let’s use today as an example, didn’t you rush forward to prevent a cri in progress? It’s just that your thod of dealing with the situation was a bit extre...”
Nonsense! Can I just look on helplessly as Ai Mi’s dog get stolen? Can I just look on helplessly as you get ssed up by those scum?
At this point, the class leader hesitated for a bit. But, she gathered up her courage, stared into my eyes, and asked:
“Since we both have an excess sense of justice, and we can’t watch evil acts without lifting a finger, why don’t you join the police academy with ?”
I almost spat out the mouthful of beer I just drank.
Why would I want to attend police academy with you! Are you still planning to push around in the academy, then once we graduate, you still want to continue to be my superior?
Stop joking around! Who wants to work under you? You would probably boss around and tell to help you go buy you an-pan when tailing soone! If that was the case, I would rather smuggle drugs. I could be a mafia boss who smokes cigars while wearing a black suit!
But it seems you can et a lot of police dogs in the academy. You could also bring them along on missions, so it seems pretty interesting... Wait, was getting in contact with police dogs one of the reasons why the class leader wants to join the academy?
No! There’s still more disadvantages than advantages! I don’t want the class leader to be always above ! I don’t want to lose my freedom!
The class leader began to mutter to herself:
“Among our classmates in class 2-3, you’re the only one who’s balanced at the most dangerous intersection of life. You’re the only one who would be easily led astray, that’s why I need to focus more ti on taking care of you!”
I was discontent with her sense of justice, “Hey, don’t get too conceited! It was coincidental that we were assigned to the sa class, and it was also coincidental you’re the class leader for the year. What’s your relationship with ? It sounds as if you want to take care of for the rest of my life...”
The class leader was imdiately at a loss for words, then after a while, she began to stamr: “I... I can’t bare to stand watching soone beside fall onto the wrong path, so that’s why I’m offering my help... Don’t misunderstand, I treat you like you’re my younger brother.”
Bullshit! There’s no way you slapped Shu Zhe before! Also, who wants a sister who nags as much as you! If I had a sister like you, I would have made sure you were married off to a place at least a million kiloters away!
I was ashad. That day, I only drank one bottle of beer, yet I got drunk.
