Chapter 218: School Choice
“February 8th, cloudy.”
“The kids progress as slowly as a tortoise. I’ve told them to train harder every day, but my advice just goes in one ear and out the other.”
“Our quarterly evaluation is at the bottom again. Every time I think about the fourth team I feel like I’m having a stroke. Fuck, I’m gonna get a drink with Old Bear.”
“February 11th, sunny.”
“I ran into a real beauty when I jogged in the Li Mountain at night. She asked if I was single. I thought I was finally gonna get some, but she was a salesperson.”
“Has the industry gotten so competitive? I admitted I was quite moved. I bought two electric brushes. Might as well start using them tomorrow.”
“February 13th, rainy.”
“I felt lightheaded when I woke up in the morning like a ghost had pinned me to the bed. Did I catch a cold?”
“That makes no sense. I haven’t gotten a cold for years. Maybe my age is finally catching up to me. I should drink less and train more—jacking off doesn’t count.”
Gao Yang wasn’t sure how to feel after finishing the man’s diary.
I don’t need to know about your sex life.
He hadn’t found any clues, but he had gotten a glimpse into the life of a single middle-aged man.
I’m not gonna end up like him in the future, am I? It’s too sad. This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
He put away the diary and locked it up before going to bed.
It was a dreamless night.
The next day, Gao Yang arrived at school on time.
Officer Huang came again in the morning. This time, he was here to investigate Niu Xuan’s disappearance.
He had questioned many students, the focus being Cucumber, Fat Hu, and Gao Yang. The three of them had gone to the Eleventh High School with Niu Xuan, and that was when Niu Xuan started behaving strangely.
By the time Gao Yang entered the office, Officer Huang had already checked the place for cameras and bugs.
He shot to his feet and grabbed Gao Yang’s shoulders. “Are you alright? I heard about the Rune Cave! It’s insane. Half of you didn’t make it out!”
Gao Yang smiled bitterly. “It’s a long story.”
Officer Huang sighed. “Why don’t you come back? Although you always say there’s no reward without risk, things are getting too dangerous. You have to survive to enjoy the fruit of your labor! If you die, nothing matters!”
Gao Yang shook his head. “I’ve made a significant achievement this time by getting two Rune Circuits, and I met Qilin in person.”
Which only made sense.
If he dared enroll in one of the schools located in cities that didn’t actually exist, wouldn’t he get eaten by monsters for touching the inconsistent parts of the world?
“Why don’t you stay in the city?” his mother suggested. “There are good schools here, and you’ll be close enough to come home every weekend. You can also bring your laundry home for washing. Isn’t that nice?”
“Sweetheart,” his father looked up and offered a different opinion. “Yang Yang is meant for greater things. He should go to a bigger city and see the world at large!”
Thanks, dad. But I won’t be seeing the world in that case, but hell.
Gao Yang smiled without saying anything.
“What’s so great about the big cities? Li City is a good place. We’ve gotten into the top ten in the nation this year!” Gao Xinxin put down her chopsticks and said seriously, “Brother should stay in the city and help develop our hometown!”
“That’s right!” His mother formed a united front with his sister.
“Gao Xinxin!” His father was both exasperated and fond, and he pinched Gao Xinxin’s cheek. “Do you think I wouldn’t know? You said all that, but you simply don’t want your brother to leave home.”
“That’s not the case!” Gao Xinxin denied vehemently.
Gao Yang was tempted to use Lie Detection to gain some experience points, but given the situation he found himself in, it was better to not use it on trivial things. He might need it later.
“It’s too early to talk about this. Wait for me to finish my exams first.” Gao Yang put an end to the discussion.
Then he and his family talked about something else, about their factory in the countryside, about which high school his sister was going to enter, and their traveling plan to Maldives during the summer vacation.
Afterwards, they each washed up and went to bed.
Gao Yang was the last to use the bathroom, but not without doing a full set of strength training first. Before he went to bed, his phone rang, notifying him of an encoded message: Twelve o’clock at midnight, first meeting room at Black Tortoise branch.
The message deleted itself in five seconds.
Gao Yang sighed. There was no rest for the wicked.
He thought for a moment and took Three Air’s diary out of his drawer. After the meeting, he would swing by his dorm room at the White Tiger branch to hide the diary.
He waited in his room quietly for his family to fall asleep. Then he got changed and put on a cap and a mask before opening the window.
He took a deep breath and jumped.
Under the moonlight, Gao Yang moved across the gated community, using the condenser units and awnings as footholds. In less than thirty seconds, he landed softly on the lawn at the gate.
He walked out and hailed a taxi by the road, arriving at the ancient culture-themed walking street in the Feiyang District and snuck into the Walled City of Ten Dragons.
He registered at the front desk before one of the receptionists led him to the first meeting room.
A man was already sitting at the far end of the long conference table. It was Black Tortoise.
