196 Chapter 87 Killing Intent (Third Update)
The people from Extraordinary Academy gradually left.
Xu Mo didn't leave; he was taken to an office in the Military District.
Upon entering the office, Xu Mo saw a man in his fifties.
He recognized him from seeing him during a video call with his teacher.
The leader of the Southwest Military District, Commander Qiu.
Commander Qiu was flipping through so docunts, the materials from the special training, while also on a call.
"Old Dean, I think your student is quite suitable for the Military District. How about lending him to for a few years?" Commander Qiu spoke up, "You may not want a soldier, but perhaps in ten or twenty years, he might take charge of this army, right?"
In the special backdrop of the tis, military promotion wasn't the sa as during peaceful periods. As long as one had enough ability, the rise through the ranks would be fast.
"Don't set your sights on him; he has no interest in being a soldier himself." The Elder's voice ca through the Communicator.
Commander Qiu felt frustrated, ended the call, and put the docunts aside.
He had just reviewed the results of the special training and inford the Old Dean, so he would be aware.
"Commander Qiu," Xu Mo saluted.
"Hmm," Commander Qiu nodded, "How do you like army life?"
"It's very fulfilling," Xu Mo replied.
"Are you interested in staying?" Commander Qiu seed a bit unwilling to give up.
Xu Mo thought for a mont and said, "Commander Qiu, I'm used to being lax."
"Fine, it seems like you and your master have already conspired together," Commander Qiu shook his head, "That friend of yours has a talent for logistics; the engineering departnt wants to keep him. Do you want to consider letting him stay in the Military District?"
"Xiao Qi?" Xu Mo revealed a hint of surprise; he had heard that Xiao Qi was taken to the engineering departnt.
The Military District's engineering departnt actually asked for him, which seed to show high regard for Xiao Qi.
This could be a good outco for Xiao Qi, but the kid was even more unruly and probably wouldn't get used to life in the Military District.
"Not for now. If he has the desire in the future, can he co then?" Xu Mo said.
"Alright," Commander Qiu nodded, "Are you really not considering it?"
"If one day I feel like it, I'll co," Xu Mo replied.
"Okay," Commander Qiu nodded, "There's nothing else, you can go."
Summoning Xu Mo was just to et him.
The special forces team that trained Xu Mo spoke very highly of his performance and even hoped he'd take up the offer to stay, which was sowhat surprising to him.
No wonder Dean Tantai had ambitions for him.
......
This ti it was still Sun the fatty in charge of picking them up.
Everyone sat in the spacious and comfortable car, all looking sowhat exhausted.
Especially Sun Xiaoxiao, who had already collapsed, though leaning on Su Rou.
With the previous experience, she had decided to stay away from the dangerous Xiao Qi and not sit with him.
"Xiao Qi, before leaving I t with Commander Qiu from the Military District," Xu Mo spoke up.
"Hmm?" Xiao Qi was startled and said, "Brother Xu Mo, why tell ?"
Sun the fatty was all ears; he was unclear about the training results.
However, Commander Qiu eting Xu Mo was in itself indicative of sothing.
"He asked if I wanted to let you stay in the Military District. The engineering departnt is very satisfied with your performance," Xu Mo said.
Xiao Qi was stunned, blinked, and said: "I helped them out, and now they're after ?"
That's simply unreasonable.
"Brother Xu Mo, you didn't agree to them, did you?" Xiao Qi said with a mournful face, "That old man in the engineering departnt has a very bad temper."
"I didn't," replied Xu Mo, "You can co to the Military District if you decide to in the future."
"Never," said Xiao Qi.
Ye Qingdie looked at Xiao Qi, her beautiful eyes carrying a smile that was not quite a smile.
"Sister Butterfly... you wouldn't abandon , would you?" Xiao Qi shrank his head a bit.
He was sowhat panicked.
"I would," Ye Qingdie said.
"Sister Butterfly, you..." Xiao Qi said, "Don't worry, I won't ss up things for you and Brother Xu Mo in the future."
"Pfft." As he spoke, Xiao Qi got hit on the head.
"Ah..." Sun Xiaoxiao mumbled, her eyes fluttering, looking back and forth between Ye Qingdie and Xu Mo.
Is that right?
Ye Qingdie, feeling the gaze of everyone in the car, blushed slightly, and hit Xiao Qi again.
But Xiao Qi was used to it; kind people are always vulnerable to injury.
Xiao Xiao laughed to herself on the side; the guy just asked for it.
Seeing the joy of the group, Sun the fatty in front also revealed a hint of a smile.
Youth is wonderful.
"Last ti I said I'd treat you to a al, but I haven't made good on it yet. How about we have dinner before going back?" Sun the fatty said.
"Sure, let's follow Uncle Sun's arrangent," Xu Mo nodded, naturally with no objections.
Nobody else objected either.
Having trained for more than twenty days, they could do with so relaxation.
A garden-style restaurant in Steel Do City, with very good privacy.
Sun the fatty drove them there.
But as they were entering the outside gate, they were stopped.
Sun the fatty rolled down the window to see a security staff mber approaching and saying, "Sorry, sir, but the garden is closed to the public today without prior notice."
"I had a reservation," Sun the fatty said.
"Sorry, sir, the closure was so sudden we didn't manage to notify you in ti," the security staff mber repeated.
Sun the fatty was taken aback and felt a bit affronted.
"How co I can see people inside?" Sun the fatty pointed inside, "Are you saying I can't see properly?"
Inside the garden, he saw several figures.
So, you're looking down on people?
Xiao Qi seed a bit displeased.
"Soone from inside." The security personnel responded.
"Are you insulting my intelligence?" Xiao Qi said, still displeased, "Step aside."
However, the other party still did not move aside.
"Uncle Sun, how about we find another place?" Xu Mo thought Xiao Qi was only concerned about losing face and found it unnecessary.
"No, I've noticed sothing interesting."
Xiao Qi's gaze swept over the few people inside. Although they were in plain clothes, their deanor was extraordinary, and one of them had a special emblem on his shirt.
He closed the car window and said to Benjamin, "Look there, the pattern on the shirt of the person at the back, do you recognize it?"
It was only one person, and not conspicuous. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice it at all.
"Special forces of the Southern Military District?" Benjamin showed a hint of surprise. That emblem was generally only recognized by people within the Military District. Xiao Qi actually knew about it.
"That's right." Xiao Qi's eyes moved as he said, "Don't move in the car. I'll go in and have a look."
Xiao Qi seed to have beco sowhat interested, got out of the car, and headed straight inside. How could the security personnel possibly stop him?
Xiao Qi wanted to get inside but was quickly stopped by so people. The several plainclothes officers blocked his way.
Xu Mo and his group all looked in that direction.
"What is that fatso up to?" Sun Xiaoxiao looked inside, feeling concerned.
From her father and Benjamin's conversation, those people turned out to be from the Southern Military District.
She didn't have a very good impression of the Southern Military District; it all seed very dangerous.
Shen Qianzhong had a very good image on the outside, like a perfect person.
He was said to lead a civilian army, but she heard the Southern Military District was well-equipped.
It always felt strange, unreal.
"Bang..."
Just at that mont, a loud clash erupted inside as Xiao Qi suddenly engaged in a fight with soone.
Xiao Qi's body slid backward all the way to the outside, his footsteps still sowhat unsteady. However, the person he had clashed with also backed off, precisely the one with the pattern on his shirt.
Xu Mo's gaze was fixed on the inside; he was sowhat aware of Xiao Qi's strength, which was formidable.
This also indirectly proved that the opponent was powerful as well.
It seed a significant figure had arrived.
"Dad." Sun Xiaoxiao opened the door and rushed out of the car.
Xu Mo and the others also got out one after another, rushing over to Xiao Qi's side, but were stopped by his outstretched hand.
The gaze of the people inside swept over Xu Mo and his group like sharp knives. Xu Mo's perceptive abilities were released, noticing they all had weapons on them, but they hadn't used them, as that would be too conspicuous.
At that mont, several cars inside started to drive out, and those people made way imdiately.
Xiao Qi and his group also stepped aside, their eyes looking toward the inside of the cars.
The figures inside couldn't be seen; the car windows were made of special material.
A strange light appeared in Xu Mo's eyes as he peered through the car windows into the inside.
"It's him."
Xu Mo retracted his gaze. The person inside seed to have sensed sothing and looked in Xu Mo's direction for a mont. However, they then retracted their gaze and didn't show much concern.
That person in the car was sobody Xu Mo had seen before.
Shortly after the vehicles left, a few more cars ca out.
The people who had blocked Xiao Qi's group followed the cars out. Soone from the last car opened the rear door, and they directly jumped in from the back.
One of them kept staring at Xu Mo.
Xu Mo frowned slightly, sensing a hint of murderous intent in the other's eyes.
That person gestured by drawing his hand across his neck, the palm moving sideways in a cutting motion, and then the car door closed. The figures of that group gradually faded away.
"Brother Xu Mo." Sun Xiaoxiao felt a chill co over her.
That gesture, of course, she understood it.
Kill!
Ye Qingdie and the others were also worried; these people were from the Southern Military District and obviously knew Xu Mo.
"It's nothing." Xu Mo said nonchalantly.
"Shen Qianzhong is becoming less discreet," Xiao Qi said, squinting his eyes and looking into the distance.
Within the upper echelons of Steel Do City, it was no secret that Shen Qianzhong had financial backers behind him. Such matters could be concealed at the start, but the later operations couldn't possibly be kept secret.
Xu Mo frowned deeply.
So underlying issues seed to have revealed themselves.
The Li family turned out to be the financial backer behind Shen Qianzhong.
No wonder Dean Nanming didn't like him.
The Li family's people showed up at the Nanming Family, and furthermore, they wished to pursue Nanming Huowu. They were also the financial backers of the Southern Army.
Were they trying to wrap up both the Academy Faction and the military?
"Sir, you can go in now." The security personnel ca forward and said.
"Get lost."
Xiao Qi cursed without any good humor.
After others have had their fill, it was his turn?
He wouldn't stand for such treatnt.
"Should we change the location?" Xiao Qi asked Xu Mo.
"Let's postpone it." Xu Mo said, not having much appetite anymore.
"Alright, looks like this al will have to be owed for a little longer," Xiao Qi said helplessly. The group got into the car, but each seed preoccupied with their own thoughts.
"Xu Mo, you should speak to the Old Dean about this. If you're going to participate, be careful. The Southern Military District has bad intentions," Xiao Qi cautioned, as Sun Xiaoxiao and Ye Qingdie were constantly worried about this matter.
"Alright."
Xu Mo nodded.
The Southern Military District had murderous intentions!
