With the safety clicked, both girls immediately ducked down and waited for something to happen.

”Last warning. Or else I’ll open fire.”

After almost an entire minute of silence with nothing happening, Yuqi finally got a little impatient.

”Xiaoyun, is it done?”

”Not yet... Never mind, the threat is gone.”

As Xiaoyun lowered his gun, the two of them finally came out from below the desks.

”Xiaoyun, what the fuck was that?”

Yuqi questioned, her voice looking a little annoyed as no shots were fired, implying that there was no threat at all.

”I thought there was something invisible since there was no shadow on that plant. It turned out the ceiling light was still on.”

”Xiaoyun, I told you there was nothing there. You are just too paranoid from the battlefield.”

”Better safe than sorry.”

”Whatever. Let’s go back home already.”

As Yuqi dragged Xiaoyun down from the stairs, the secretary didn’t think too much of it as she resumed working.

---

”Xiaoyun, what did you see at the office?” Yuqi questioned as she started up the car.

”Nothing...”

”Come on, I know you saw something.”

”I thought you said I saw nothing.”

”I’m only saying it to calm Jianlin down. Your eyesight is better than everyone’s I know out there...

Besides, I know you wouldn’t actually look at other women like that when you have us.”

After a short silence, Xiaoyun finally came up with a response.

”I think I saw a ghost.”

”A ghost? Never mind, you are definitely tripping or something.”

”I’m serious. The air in that area just looked much more distorted than everywhere else in the office——”

”Stop describing it. You’re scaring me from working there.”

As Yuqi started driving down the road, Xiaoyun’s mind started to doubt the thing he had seen earlier.

”Maybe I was tripping...”

”I wouldn’t be surprised if there is actually a ghost. Hell, zombies seem more ridiculous than ghosts as a concept.

Like a living thing that could run indefinitely, or something that could barely interact with others.”

The rambling didn’t really grab Xiaoyun’s attention as he thought back to what he had seen originally.

It was a shadowy figure that had appeared for a millisecond, seemingly to be right above the secretary before vanishing.

”Yuqi, your secretary doesn’t have anything fish, right?”

”Of course. She’s been working at Luoping for a year now. Yueyue told me she is completely safe with no possible connection to the outside.”

”Hm...”

Unable to get any answer, Xiaoyun’s mind automatically dismisses it as just some weird phenomenon.

”Babe, can I ask you something?” Yuqi asked.

”What is it?”

”How long are you planning to stay in Luoping before going out again?”

”I’m going out to Guangzhou with you every day——”

”You know what I mean.”

Xiaoyun fell into silence as the car reached Luoping. His mind knew he couldn’t give an answer that would satisfy her.

”I’ll try to stay as long as I’m not needed outside.”

”Thanks, Mr.Helpful.”

Just as Yuqi drove out of the city center, Xiaoyun’s mind quickly remembered something.

”Yuqi, can you drive me to Lily’s school?”

”Sure... You picking her up today?”

”Her teacher wanted to talk to her guardian... You don’t have to wait for us, I’ll go home with her later.”

”Okay. I’m too hungry anyway. I can’t wait for Mom’s dinner.”

After driving for a few minutes, the two of them arrived at the entrance of Luoping, filled with police officers checking each of the cars.

With the special licenses at the front, they were able to drive straight into Luoping without waiting.

”I thought we abolished border checks,” Xiaoyun murmured, remembering there were no checks last time.

”Probably some sort of surprise checks. Not a lot of people have cars in the first place.”

---

A few minutes later...

As Yuqi stopped the car, Xiaoyun quickly hopped out before she started the car back up again.

”Geez, did she not eat lunch at all?” Xiaoyun wondered as he could feel the wind that Yuqi drove off with.

After walking over to the entrance of the school, he quickly noticed several police officers guarding the entrances.

”Good evening, Mr. Governor!”

”Good evening... Ahem, do you guys know why there are so many more police officers patrolling today?”

”The sheriff wanted to crack down on the rampant petty crime recently. So he had ordered all officers to enact a week of tough-on-crime.”

”I see... Thanks for your service.”

Xiaoyun didn’t comment any further as he headed inside the school, walking straight to the school staff sitting in the middle.

”Good evening, how may I help you?”

”I’m here to pick up Lily...”

”Lily? Can I know her surname?”

”Lily... Crap.”

As Xiaoyun tried to think back to Lily’s surname, his brain just kept running blank.

He had never heard someone mention her last name at all. Nor had he ever bothered asking about it either.

”Mister, are you the parent of Lily?”

”No. I’m just her legal guardian. Sorry, let me make a call for a second.”

Just as Xiaoyun was about to pull out his phone, he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from behind.

”Brother Xiaoyun!”

Turning around, Lily was standing right outside a class, waving her hand with a middle-aged woman next to her.

”Oh, there she is. Can I go talk to her?”

”Go for it.”

The school staff didn’t think much, letting Xiaoyun head over to the two of them as Lily quickly ran up closer herself, jumping into the air to hug him.

”You’re Lily’s brother?”

”I’m her legal guardian. I’m not actually her brother. You’re Lily’s homeroom teacher?”

Xiaoyun gently put Lily back down before looking over to the middle-aged woman with a pair of glasses.

”Yes, I’m her homeroom teacher——”

”Oh hey, Xiaoyun. What are you doing here?”

As Shuli came out of the hall, the homeroom teacher’s eyes immediately started to widen.

”M-Mr.Governor?” The woman nervously asked.

”Please don’t call me that. You can just call me Mr.Xiaoyun. Hey Shuli, you going home?”

”Yeah. I’ve just finished working. You’re picking up Lily today?”

”Yeah... Actually, why don’t Leyan or Nami let you pick up Lily every day instead?”

”She just goes home by herself every day... Is there a teacher meeting with her today?”

”Yes Principal Shuli. Today was the day of the parents’ talk.”

”Oh, right. I completely forgot about that... Ahem, let me just join in with you guys.”

As the two women entered the classroom, Lily and Xiaoyun both followed them inside as well.

”Ahem, Teacher Lin, you can start explaining what today’s meeting is about to him.”

The homeroom teacher nodded as the nervousness disappeared from her face, turning her attention to Xiaoyun as her profession took over.

”Originally, I was planning to talk about this with Miss Leyan, but since you’re Miss Leyan’s husband, I’ll just tell you about it.”

After a short pause, the teacher took out a piece of paper before handing it over to Xiaoyun.

”These are Lily’s semester grades for this spring. She had passed all the high school exams with flying colors.”

As Xiaoyun began reading it, he immediately noticed the high scores the teacher had been talking about.

All of them were A or A+, except for PE, which was at the very bottom, only getting a B.

”Lily had been a great student at school. She had been the school monitor, and many of her peers had rated her highly.”

”That’s good to hear.”

As Xiaoyun complimented Lily, he could see the smile on her face getting wider and wider.

”Unfortunately, next semester would be the end of the course for her, which is why we have you here today.”

Putting down the report card, Xiaoyun accepted another piece of paper from the teacher.

”On the paper is our future school system, which our educators have set up. Please take a read of it.”

When reading the new paper, he noticed that the explanation for the standard K-6 elementary school was at the very top.

In the middle were the middle and high schools, both with three and four years, respectively.

At the very bottom were the two separate branches, one with a vocational school and the other with a university.

”Do you have any questions about the paper?” The teacher asked as he put the paper back down.

Xiaoyun didn’t even look at the teacher. Instead, he looked over to Shuli with a question.

”Shuli, I thought we were shortening the school time.”

”Well, that plan was back in January. Things change as the situation evolves.”

Shuli paused for a second, then continued.

”All the professors and former school administrators told me to keep the old system, and I agreed with it as well.”

Looking down at the paper again, Xiaoyun’s mind was a little torn by the potential cost it was requiring for all 12 years, the minimum for students.

”You gave this plan to Yuqi, and she agreed to it?”

”Yeah, I just gave this to her two days ago. She told me it was completely fine and told me to go ahead with it.”

”Really...”

Seeing Xiaoyun looking a little doubtful, the teacher suddenly decided to chime in.

”Mr.Governor. I hope you can keep the school system intact instead of shortening it.”

”What makes you think that?”
