July 7th.

6:10 am.

Qingcheng City, inside the Public Security Bureau.

Chen Yu bowed slightly to the three police officers. “Thank you for your hospitality these past two days.”

Officer Wang was expressionless. “I didn’t entertain you.”

“I’m leaving.”

“Hurry up and leave.”

“If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll come back again.”

“You dare to come.”

“There’s no need to send me off.”

“No one is sending you off.”

Standing where he was, Chen Yu hesitated for a moment. “Then, I’ll be leaving.”

“Hurry up and leave.”

“If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll come back again.”

“You dare… You’re repeating your studies here with me?” Officer Wang was furious. “Go!”

“Alright.” Chen Yu bowed again. “There’s no need to send me off.”

“No one will send you off!”

“Then, I’ll be leaving.”

Officer Wang’s body was trembling slightly. “Hurry, hurry, go!”

“If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll come again.”

“…” After a moment of silence, Officer Wang looked at the policewoman beside him. “Go send him off, or he’ll never stop.”

“Ah.” The policewoman rubbed her face in annoyance and stretched out her hand to push Chen Yu. “Go! I’ll send you off.”

“Do you police officers always gnash your teeth in anger when you send people away?”

“Are you going or not?”

“Yes.” Chen Yu nodded and waved at Officer Wang. “If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll…”

Officer Wang took out his pistol expressionlessly.

Chen Yu decisively shut his mouth, turned around, and walked toward the door…

The two of them walked a dozen meters in front and behind each other. Chen Yu pursed his lips. “Look at your captain’s dirty face.”

“It’s all because you deliberately angered him!”

“If he didn’t lie to me, how can I anger him?”

“After the interrogation, he let you go,” the policewoman retorted.

“The police station is not a place where you can come and go as you please! If I were to enter and leave as I please, where would the authority of the law enforcement department be?”

The policewoman: “…”

When they reached the main entrance, Chen Yu stopped and waved his hand. “You can go back. There’s no need to send me off anymore.”

The policewoman rolled her eyes and did not move. “I’ll only be completely at ease when I see you disappear.”

“Look at what you’re saying. There’s only one or two hours left before the College Entrance Exam. Can I still sneak back to the police station?”

“Anything can happen to you.”

“Then call me a cab. I can disappear faster.”

“What are you thinking about?”

“Isn’t that my catchphrase? You’re learning pretty fast…”

Just as the two of them were arguing, a man and a woman walked out from the police backyard.

The former was a middle-aged man over 188 in height. He had a serious expression and exuded the power of a superior from the inside out.

The latter was a petite underage girl with a French princess braid and a pair of canvas shoes. Wearing the rustic school uniform, her exquisite face made her look especially cute.

Even a vicious straight man like Chen Yu couldn’t help but be attracted to her.

The policewoman followed Chen Yu’s line of sight and turned around. When she saw the two of them, she hurriedly pulled Chen Yu a few meters away.

“Who is he?” Chen Yu’s gaze returned. “Did he scare you so much?”

“Keep your voice down. It’s our Chief.”

“Your Chief…” Chen Yu looked up at the sky. “He got off work quite early.”

“Don’t spout nonsense!” The policewoman pulled Chen Yu a few meters further away. “He hasn’t gone to work yet.”

“Then why did he go out?”

“To send his daughter to the College Entrance Exam! The Chief’s daughter is also taking the College Entrance Exam today, just like you.”

“Oh…”

Chen Yu looked at the two people getting into the bulletproof car and slowly driving away, still in a daze.

The policewoman waved her hand in front of Chen Yu. “Hey! Love at first sight?”

“She probably hasn’t seen me yet.”

“…What are you dreaming about? I mean, you! Fell in love with her at first sight?”

“Not really.” Chen Yu said calmly, “That girl is still underage, right? She’s already taking the College Entrance Exam? Which middle school is she from? How is her strength?”

“How is it? Is she pretty?”

“Pretty.”

“Is she cute?”

“Cute.” Chen Yu nodded. “Such a fairy-like girl, even her poop is rainbow-colored, right? It should be easy to throw her when you pick her up.”

The policewoman: “…”

“I’m going to report your Chief’s private use of his public car. It will definitely attract his daughter’s attention.”

The policewoman: “…”

…

After Chen Yu left the public security compound, in a residential building across the street, the figure behind the window put down his binoculars. “F*ck! Chen Yu is indeed being protected by the police.”

“This is a little troublesome.” In the house, another person sighed. “It’s not easy to make a move.”

“He’s out of the police station now. Let’s move quickly. We should still be able to give it a try.”

“Do you want to lose your life? Kidnapping an examinee on the day of the College Entrance Examination?! Do you believe that the entire Qingcheng City Government will go crazy?”

“Then what should we do? Continue to wait? I’ve long suggested taking action ahead of time and preparing for it. We’ve delayed things, haven’t we?”

“Continue to wait. We’ll talk about it after the College Entrance Examination…”

…

6:30 in the morning.

Chen Yu returned to the cigarette shop.

Sister Qi had been preparing for a long time. She threw a few new clothes over. “It’s almost seven o’clock and you’re only back? I thought you went straight to school.”

“Isn’t your wish to send me to the College Entrance Exam? How can I leave it behind for you?”

“Cut the crap and change your clothes quickly.”

“Okay.” After changing into the new clothes, Chen Yu walked to the mirror and walked around half a circle. “Is this a martial arts suit?”

“Yes, I specially got a friend to customize it. How is it?”

“Cool!” He tightened his belt and made a taekwondo pose. “It’s also very convenient to move around.”

“That’s good. Have you eaten?”

“Yes.” Actually, he didn’t eat.

“Let’s go then.” After locking the door, Sister Qi pulled Chen Yu and hurried in the direction of No. 7 High School.

“There’s still time. Sister Qi, please slow down…”

“We still have to queue up to enter the school. It’s better to walk earlier than later.”

As both of them were martial artists, their walking speed was very fast. In less than ten minutes, they arrived at the entrance of No. 7 High School.

Outside the door, there were not many candidates waiting in line. There was plenty of time.

Only then did Sister Qi relax. She took out a small medicine bottle from her pocket and handed it to Chen Yu. “Take it. Go and queue up.”

“What is this?” Chen Yu shook the pills in the medicine bottle.

“Health care products. They are used to regulate one’s breathing. After every combat examination, you can take two pills.”

“Stimulants are not allowed in the College Entrance Examination.”

“This doesn’t belong to the period of excitement. It can be used in the examination. The effect is very good.”

Hearing the words ‘the effect is very good’, Chen Yu immediately blacklisted this medicine bottle in his heart…

“Where have you been preparing for the examination these two days? Isn’t it the same at home? Why did you have to go outside?”

Putting away the medicine bottle, Chen Yu replied, “A martial artist trains his body, nourishes his breath, and cultivates his mind. It’s really inferior to be a closed-door practitioner. As a citizen, you have to get along with the party, experience more of different lives, and understand all kinds of things.”

Sister Qi said, “Speak in human language.”

Chen Yu said, “I was arrested by the police.”

Sister Qi: “…”

“That one over there! Are you waiting for the examinees? It’s almost seven o’clock!” A teacher at the school gate shouted at Chen Yu.

“Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly.” Sister Qi pushed Chen Yu. “I have to go too. I’m going to the College Entrance Examination venue to check my ticket.”

“Your wish came true so quickly? Aren’t you going to chat a little longer?”

“I have a new wish now.” Sister Qi blinked. “I hope that my child can get into a university.”

“Your new wish is too humble. Let me give you the top scorer.”

“Your words are so nice. During the Beast Tide, I didn’t leave my inheritance to you in vain.”

“Good guy, you are so particular.” Chen Yu gave her a thumbs up. “Sister Qi, how much inheritance did you leave me?”

“500,000 yuan in savings!”

Chen Yu was shocked. “D*mn, that’s fine, that’s fine.”

Sister Qi: “There’s still a 50-year mortgage.”

Chen Yu: “…”

Sister Qi: “As well as the 860,000 yuan owed for the purchase.”

Chen Yu: “… The wind blows, the water flows, the mountains and rivers are gone! Let’s part ways here!”
