Chapter 141

A group of fish, each three meters long, passed by in the direction of the Transparent Wall where Qin Su was standing. They had blue bodies, round, bright yellow eyes that occupied four-fifths of their triangular heads, and black pupils that occupied two-thirds of the whites of their eyes. The black parts of their pupils were neatly scattered towards the back.

The colors were so vibrant and saturated, almost like they were painted, that was one thing. But from Qin Su's perspective, when they swam past him, their 'slanted eyes' seemed to be silently saying 'Look at him' with disdainful looks, as if they were all chirping at him in silence.

Qin Su: "..."

Would you call this a "waste period"? Even the fish passing by look down on him.

[Fish: So what if Qin Su? I still look down on him. (Stacked Armor: Friends in front of the screen, this is just how our bodies are naturally structured, we're not deliberately looking down on Qin Su!)]

This fish... it's quite a unique little thing!

[Qin Su a really high threshold for laughter; he can even hold back his laughter at this.]

[It has such a cute, cartoonish appearance. Do fish like this exist in the Real World? It seems perfect for my boss to keep as an ornamental fish, thus satisfying my regret of not daring to give him a disapproving look (seriously thinking about it)]

[Boss:?]

Qin Su: "..."

He didn't want to waste his remaining energy on 'turning up the corners of his mouth'; in fact, he found their appearance quite cute and amusing.

Qin Su's taciturn nature made the students of Class 6 and Class 66 uneasy, and they unconsciously sped up their actions. Before long, with the double buff of having more people and faster speed, all the remaining weapons were packed up.

Even though Qin Su exudes an aura of coldness that makes him unapproachable, their admiration and fear of the strong do not diminish their desire to get close to Qin Su.

Unable to get close due to physical distance, a group of people pushed He Muzhi forward, choosing to observe from afar, silently watching Qin Su's back.

The Spaceship cabin was brightly lit, while it was pitch black outside. Through the Transparent Wall in front of Qin Su, the faces of Qin Su and all of them could be reflected.

Afraid of making eye contact with Qin Su, everyone tacitly forced themselves not to look at the Transparent Wall.

Qin Su had heard the footsteps of his classmates behind him. Judging from their own performance, he realized that they were all in a period of fear towards him. He felt guilty and embarrassed just like them when he failed to meet the expectations of his Parents and teachers.

Right now, it doesn't matter if he turns his back to everyone.

Qin Su simply didn't bother to move and waited for He Muzhi to approach before speaking.

Even if he wasn't used to this kind of "confrontation where whoever speaks first loses" game, just the fact that he was too weak to even move his mouth meant that Qin Su was now very good at keeping his composure.

He Muzhi couldn't believe that Qin Su, with his keen insight, wouldn't know they were already behind him. Now, he was silent and didn't turn around to face them, which meant he was extremely disappointed in their performance.

Judging from the unsatisfactory results of their three-day assessment of weapon structure, which they conducted according to Qin Su's arrangements.

Qin Su... it would be a miracle if he wasn't angry.

They wasted Qin Su's good intentions.

He Muzhi stopped about three steps away from Qin Su, watching Qin Su's back. He resisted the urge to observe Qin Su's expression through the wall and reported truthfully, "Class Monitor, all the weapons have been packed up as you instructed."

Qin Su didn't mention any specific packing details, so they simply packed the items separately, categorizing them as either opened or unopened.

"Um."

The expected voice rang out. All Qin Su needed to do was move his voice; he didn't need to move his body or make any facial expressions. He simply grunted and sent the coordinates and the seemingly 'negotiated' but actually negotiated price—which he had negotiated himself based on market prices and then lowered—to He Muzhi's Optical Brain.

To avoid arousing suspicion, Jiang Cheng's two Military Factories continued to sell some of their weapons to outsiders, in addition to manufacturing the weapons they needed.

It is perfectly normal to buy such 'depreciated' weapons.

Taking advantage of everyone's guilty conscience and the fact that no one was looking at him through the wall, Qin Su, seemingly indifferent as he gazed at the scene outside the cabin, was silently taking in the every move of his classmates behind him.

Noticing that He Muzhi turned on his personal Optical Brain the moment he received his message, Qin Su spoke again precisely on cue, "Transport all the packed items to the designated location."

"...?!"

Checking the coordinates and weapon trade prices, and confirming that his ears weren't playing tricks on him, He Muzhi's pupils widened instantly as he looked at the interface of the Optical Brain. His incredulous gaze shifted from Optical Brain interface to Qin Su, and then he heard his own stiff voice instinctively reply, "Yes..."

"?"

What did Qin Su send to He Muzhi, and what was his tone?

The other students behind him hadn't received the price Qin Su sent and were confused. Through He Muzhi's voice, they could also sense that something was wrong.

After responding, He Muzhi, no matter how shocked he was, instinctively followed Qin Su's instructions, turning his back to Qin Su and taking steps in the opposite direction.

Qin Su: "..."

He had assumed that, given He Muzhi's kind and upright character, when he heard about his 'rebellious' behavior that contradicted He Muzhi's previous teachings, even if he didn't argue with him, he would struggle with the thought for a little longer.

Unexpectedly, He Muzhi's ability to learn was so fast that Qin Su was surprised. He silently brought up He Muzhi's individual record interface and recorded a new record at He Muzhi's psychological threshold.

Qin Su did not want to think that this was He Muzhi was 'highly obedient' to him.

Although not long after he became Class Monitor, he deliberately used Class Monitor position to train the students of Class 6, led by He Muzhi, to prioritize obeying his orders for his own shady purposes.

But Qin Su stubbornly believed that no matter how high the level of obedience, it still could not truly supersede personal will. Furthermore, people's hearts are different due to their different upbringing, past experiences, and so on. Subtle differences can influence each person to make choices that others cannot expect.

The human heart is unfathomable; only death can prevent its change.

He secretly sold the unused weapons, deliberately letting He Muzhi take the lead, which somewhat challenged the values instilled in He Muzhi his previous education.

He Muzhi's quick agreement was truly unexpected by Qin Su.

He Muzhi turned around, his heart filled with conflicting emotions, but he didn't stop walking.

This kind of thing... doesn't seem very 'clean'.

Qin Su entrusted him with the task personally...

Is this trust or...? No, no, no, how could he think of Qin Su like that? Since the price and location were agreed upon beforehand, why was there a contact method? Does Qin Su mean... he'll be asked to do these kinds of things again?

He Muzhi's conscience was silently battling within him.

The little white figure, flapping its holy wings, advised him: This involves the gray and black areas, it's wrong, it should be stopped!

The little black figure stood arrogantly with his hands on his hips. "What are you afraid of? Qin Su must have his reasons for doing this. Would Qin Su harm you? What kind of good thing is this school? If it weren't for Qin Su, you would all be dead in Vitelta. You treat the school like a school, but does the school care about your lives? You dare to question Qin Su's orders? You've done Qin Su a disservice..."

"And..." Qin Su observed that He Muzhi had taken three steps and indeed showed no inclination to refute him, so he suddenly spoke up.

He Muzhi immediately stopped in his tracks, his mind still in turmoil, when he heard Qin Su's voice again.

Qin Su, openly and honestly speaking in front of everyone, said what he hadn't finished, "After it's done, spread the news and contact information."

The school can't possibly expel almost two graduating classes, can it?

He Muzhi: "... Understood."

He now understood why Qin Su had sent him his contact information. Qin Su was telling him that he was the first person Qin Su had chosen, but not the only one.

With Qin Su leading the way, everyone who witnessed Qin Su's Qin Su after transferring to the Fourth Military Academy understands what he means to the Fourth Military Academy and the Federation.

Whether for personal gain or for... something else, few would refuse to 'imitate' Qin Su's actions.

He has many competitors.

'If the news gets out, he won't do it; plenty of others will.'

The little black figure in He Muzhi's mind had achieved a temporary victory. When he raised his red eyes to look at his classmates, the struggle and confusion in his eyes had dissipated, replaced by a more determined look.

"Students, please follow me."

"Ah... okay."

"Um."

Everyone was completely confused and dared not ask Qin Su. He Muzhi was clearly the best choice to answer their questions, so they all agreed and followed He Muzhi away.

Once he was sure everyone had vanished from his sight, Qin Su cautiously maintained his position.

Only after confirming, through the authority transferred to him by Alec, that everyone except himself had left the Spaceship following He Muzhi, and after standing until he was numb and barely holding on, did Qin Su turn off the comic book single-person capture camera, return to the Rest Pod, and collapse to rest, utterly exhausted.

--

"It's the last day." At the Fourth Military Academy, Aiseboer stared at the kill point statistics on Zhang Minglang 'Optical Brain, his heart finally settling down. "There shouldn't be any problems now, right?"

Having learned from the previous experience, and fearing being betrayed by Qin Su again, Aiseboer no longer focused solely on Qin Su, but also kept a close eye on the data of both Class 6 and Class 66.

Qin Su... his kill count remains at the maximum limit.

The good news is that only Qin Su; none of the other students filled all their spots.

Zhang Minglang stated based on facts. "Vagakupo is on the Purge list every quarter, so the density of Zerg underwater is naturally low. What's there to be happy about in such a result?"

"You don't understand." Aiseboer leaned back comfortably on the sofa. "The amount of Star Coins I exchanged was small, and that made me happy. You have no idea how those people looked at me every time I applied. If they weren't afraid, I seriously suspect that our Fourth Military Academy would have been blacklisted and sidelined immediately."

"On a small scale, this only means a smaller total exchange amount, but in the long run, it's a good sign and a significant step forward for our Fourth Military Academy, taking another step further away from being blacklisted by the higher-ups!"

"Haha..." Zhang Minglang reminded, "Don't you think that Class 6 and Class 66, led by Qin Su, have been a little too quiet lately?"

Aiseboer realized what he meant. "Oh right, so why aren't they showing off anymore?"

Aiseboer straightened up, thinking of the saying, "When a child is quiet, they must be up to something," and a sense of unease welled up inside him. "Teacher Zhang, please ask them, please ask them quickly! I'm in a real hurry!"

We can't afford to let him down at the last minute and give him nothing but disappointment.

"I'm asking." But a full ten minutes had passed since he sent the group message, and not a single child had responded.

He should probably hand over his position Class Advisor to Qin Su as soon as possible.

--

After temporarily separating from the Main Spaceship, He Muzhi led his classmates, carrying the remaining packed supplies, to the agreed-upon transaction location between Qin Su and his accomplices.

After leaving Qin Su, He Muzhi, after being questioned by his classmates, told them everything he had learned from Qin Su.

Soon, He Muzhi saw the same look of astonishment on his classmates' faces as when he had first heard the news.

"This... the Pheromone too strong, I'm a little confused."

"There's... there's such a thing?"

Alec Ruan swallowed hard, managing to utter, "Having been in school for so long, I've never heard of anything like this before. Qin Su is truly..."

'Audacious in the extreme.'

"The main thing is... the school didn't say we couldn't do that," Sophia shrugged. "So, rounding it up, can we interpret it as the school allowing it?"

Jeffrey: "If the school heard you say that, they'd suspect that the water content of alms five times out of ten is comparable to that of Vagakupo."

"Although, this is the default gray area, isn't it?"

"So what? The school never expected a student would dare to do something like this!"

"I understand." Raymond clicked his tongue. "So, in the end, it's not really the school's problem; it's something the school didn't prohibit. What does it have to do with our Class Monitor, Qin Su?"

"!"

"That's right!"

"That's a revelation! So our Brother Su's decision was absolutely right."

"I'll give you my full support."

He Muzhi: "..."

What the students said... seems to make a lot of sense.

[I'm laughing so hard I'm pounding my bed! If the school knew what you guys were thinking, they'd be crying their eyes out in the bathroom, hahaha!]

[6666's strength is basic, but his thought process is not. I seriously suspect that Boss Su chose Fourth Military Academy Class 6 because their brains are 'not simple'.]

[ (Class 6: What? Qin Su's behavior touched a blind spot in our acceptance? It doesn't matter, we'll handle it ourselves at the karaoke bar.]

[Doesn't anyone think Qin Su is a lawless outlaw, a demon in disguise? He seems to be doing everything for everyone's good, but in reality, he's using a sugar-coated exterior to lure everyone down a strange path from which there's no return?]

[A seemingly innocent but actually cunning demon in a comic? Oh my god (starry-eyed) (pouting) Who cares, as long as he's handsome, that's all that matters. When I read comics, my values always follow the characters' looks. I'm even to the point of yelling "Sniper!" when I see Boss Su holding a gun. In the Real World, I'd be calling the police non-stop.]

[If you live abroad... wouldn't you have to call the police while simultaneously engaging in a sniper duel?]

[I know the answer to this question. I live alone on a farm in the countryside. There are so few people around, I'm terrified. So I keep a gun by my bedside every night. And then someone actually broke into my house to rob me. Luckily, I had a weapon with me, so I shot and killed the robber. Otherwise, in that desolate place, I would have been dead when the police arrived.]

[I watched the video on your profile, and you managed to snipe three terrorists all by yourself?!]

[This is what the bullet comment section originally looked like; even sharpshooters could share their daily experiences of bandit suppression in the bullet comment section.]

"So here's the question: should we spread the news after the transaction is complete, or now? The Class Monitor didn't mention a time."

"You useless piece of trash, you need the Class Monitor to tell you this? You're just too good for yourselves, don't you think, He Muzhi?"

"Now."

Seeing that his classmates seemed to accept it well, He Muzhi initially felt much better. However, he then realized that his own mind was too dark, as if being on the same side as his classmates would lessen his guilt.

"By the way, has Teacher Zhang contacted you?"

Looking at the message he received from his Class Advisor ten minutes ago, He Muzhi hesitated to reply because he was following Qin Su's instructions and packing weapons with his classmates. This delay led to the current situation.

"I received it. Was it the question 'How's the situation?'? The Class Monitor didn't say whether or not we could talk to the Class Advisor, so I didn't reply."

"I also..."

"Same."

"Should we take it back?"

Whether it was because of Qin Su's special feelings for He Muzhi or because He Muzhi himself was a good person, since Qin Su was not present, Class 6) habitually let He Muzhi make the decision.

The students in Class 66) didn't participate; they just watched the show silently.

"No reply," He Muzhi. "The most important thing is to spread the word first."

Lying to the teacher... I just can't bring myself to say it.

What if they answer the teacher's question and the teacher tells them to stop? They can't stop the teacher anyway, so they can only pretend they didn't see the question.

Anyway, even if they don't reply to anything, the teacher will soon be able to see their activity through the Forum.

OK.

"I'm about to unleash my power."

"I didn't know until I clicked on it, and I was shocked. I've been so busy lately that I'm studying the moment I open my eyes every day, and I have absolutely no time to intensively browse Social Media Accounts."

"Just thinking about the expressions on everyone's faces when they see Qin Su's decision makes me so excited."

"Although we didn't find out as quickly as He Muzhi, we found out faster than the people in other classes. Thinking about it like that makes me feel refreshed. Indeed, there's no harm without comparison."

No one objected to He Muzhi's words. Putting aside the fact that He Muzhi's words were similar to what they were thinking, to put it bluntly, the decision was made by He Muzhi, and even if any problems arose later, He Muzhi would bear the main responsibility.

Amidst the chatter, the long-silent Forum was once again filled with the lively figures of students from Class 6 and Class 66.

Don't panic about the remaining supplies! First, use the contact information below to say hello!

I won't allow anyone to be unaware of the instant use of their remaining weapons!

I regret not selling them sooner!

Here's the secret I've been asked about countless times.

Kang! I've found another treasure!

"You have to admire this! This is incredible! You guys should try it too!"

"The Truth Session: No Need for Words, Those Who Understand, Come In"

If you're not interested, I'll quit on the spot.

Because of Qin Su, the students of Class 6), who were used to writing essays of 3,000 words or more per person, quickly spread the word about selling weapons and the contact information of buyers by creating clickbait titles that made people want to click in to see what was going on.

Although the school discovered the post immediately and quickly blocked it, it couldn't keep up with the speed of internet access on Optical Brain. The school's speed in blocking posts and silencing users was nowhere near the speed at which everyone was taking screenshots.

Not to mention that because Qin Su was in Class 6), "when one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven," so even the students in Class 6) who were at the bottom in terms of overall strength were highly sought after in other classes.

Students from other classes didn't have Qin Su's contact information, but they did have the contact information of other students in Class 6). They asked for it privately behind the school's back, and the school couldn't do anything about it.

Soon, students from other classes who had learned the full picture of the different planets and the different cleanup areas couldn't believe their eyes. "???"

"What is this? Reselling? You can't possibly see this on a school Forum?"

Is this really okay?

" (Class 6 wasn't lying, damn it, it's really tempting."

" (Class 6 will punish us for this, but if we do this, the school might punish us."

"The bold get rich, the timid starve. I've asked around in several classes, and they said their Class Monitors have already started making contacts. Honestly, aren't you tempted? Do you think the school can just take all of us?"

"I can't rely on that, because I have no conscience, so I chose to join their wonderful family."

"You can't complain, you absolutely have to join, otherwise it'll be a huge rip-off and you'll regret it for the rest of your life. Anyway, even if the sky falls, Qin Su will be there to hold it up."

In the Rest Pod, Qin Su, using the name 'Jiang Cheng', kept suggesting locations for the transactions.

This was a plan he had come up with when he was thinking about how to deal with the remaining weapons. The ghosts had been waiting in different places for a long time. He didn't need to use his brain at all. He just needed to send out the coordinates according to the original plan. Once he confirmed that he had obtained the weapons, he would transfer the Star Coins to the accounts they provided through the name of 'Jiang Cheng'.

Apart from Class 6), the Class Monitors of each other class were basically the Class of 25 who came forward, and of course they each provided their own accounts.

According to the regulations of the Fourth Military Academy, the Class Monitor represents the will of the squad in collective actions.

He insidiously used the overt tactic of 'paying money' to get more classes to 'join him in his evil ways' once again.

Zhang Minglang did not receive any replies from his classmates, but he saw countless posts on the Forum that were sent one after another and then quickly deleted.

"?"

'So wild?'

Zhang Minglang was once again deeply shocked, his gaze turning to Aiseboer, who had jumped up not far away.

As expected of Qin Su, he always manages to surprise them in unexpected ways, catching them completely off guard.

As the Principal, Aiseboer naturally received a report on such a significant matter.

Aiseboer logged into his administrator account and saw the posts that had been deleted from the backend, making him question his existence.

"???"

He pinched himself to make sure his eyes were open and that this wasn't a hallucination. A sharp, piercing sound erupted from Aiseboer.

Is that even possible?

"Does Qin Su even respect the school?!"
