Chapter 341
One year later.
Standing atop the tallest building in the New Visana Town, Patrick surveyed the scene below and asked Qiu Pang, who was standing not far away, "Are you used to it yet?"
Caught off guard by the question, Qiu Pang paused for a moment, then quickly realized what she meant and nodded, saying, "I'm used to it."
Patrick had specifically requested this place, so how could he dare say he wasn't used to it?
Patrick paused for a few seconds after hearing this, then spoke again, "So, are you still blaming me?"
He sold many people around him to He Muzhi, and He Muzhi gave him the promise he wanted. He came to Leichakan and got his hands on it.
Although, apart from the Visana Town, this place is utterly outclassed by other planets in the Federation in every aspect, the only thing worth mentioning about Visana Town is that it is frequently mentioned and remembered because of Qin Su. In terms of infrastructure... despite the efforts over the years, it has only reached the level of most backward areas on the Federation planets. The worst place Qiu Pang had ever been to was not as bad as this place.
"Are you kidding me?" Qiu Pang quickly denied it. "Of course not, I'm more than grateful to you."
Given his past instances of being two-faced for Patrick, even if the people in Class 6 weren't interested in him, there were plenty of others who wouldn't let him off easily. He thought that after the matter was over, he would lose all value to Patrick and was prepared to change his appearance and slink away to a remote planet where no one knew him. Unexpectedly, Patrick took him and his family into consideration, which allowed him to have a dignified ending and not have to hide away. No matter what lies he had told Patrick before, these words were true at this moment.
"What do you mean, 'you'?" Patrick couldn't help but roll his eyes at Qiu Pang. "Can't you be normal? I'm just like you right now."
If something were to happen to him here, Qiu Pang wouldn't be able to escape either. Fortunately, because this was the Visana Town, which Qin Su had 'favored,' the other side of the wall still showed Old Site ruins of the old Visana Town after the war, symbolizing Qin Su's tough and cruel attitude towards the likes of McCarthy, the invaders. From then on, not only Visana, but even Leichakan, which was constantly being provoked by other planets or on its way to being provoked by other planets, saw its invasion rate drop from 80% to 10%. That 10% was all attacks by Space Pirates who were short of weapons and equipment and had no other choice but to attack Leichakan nearby.
Qin Su made Class 6 famous at a young age. The young students were full of vigor and ambition. It was only natural for them to make something of themselves to prove themselves to Qin Su, their families, and the world.
As He Muzhi had predicted, many things in the Federation were different after he took office. Although the purge was only part of it, he had been in office for many years. Regardless of his thoughts, in the hearts of many people who had been purged during this period, they were all on the same ship. They all deserved to sink with this ship of the old era. He, who had used them and gone ashore alone, was not tolerated by the others on the same ship.
Of all the planets in the Federation, only here, just a wall away from the Old Site of the Visana Town, is a place where no one would easily cause trouble, including the people of Class 6). Even if Qin Su didn't care if anyone caused trouble here, the group of people in Class 6) who wouldn't allow anyone to disobey Qin Su wouldn't allow it either.
So he chose this place, even though it was underdeveloped, because it gave him peace of mind.
Qiu Pang glanced at Patrick's recently transplanted hair and vaguely guessed that, whether forced or voluntary, Patrick had finally let go of his obsession that only Qiu Pang could save the Federation. His tone was much lighter than before. "Alright."
Following Patrick's gaze, Qiu Pang, aided by the Optical Brain, looked down at the Old Site of the Visana Town, separated by a wall, where crowds of people were gathered.
"Do you think there are any students from Class 6 down there right now?" Patrick studied for a long time, only to find his eyes were too tired to see anything.
"... Maybe there are?" Qiu Pang didn't dare to say for sure. Given the level of disguise of the people in Class 6, they might not even recognize them face to face, let alone from such a distance with so many people below. It would be too difficult to find out who was from Class 6. Although he thought this, Qiu Pang still subconsciously asked, "Should we send someone to look for them?"
Investigations are impossible; they can only search secretly. Even though Patrick is in charge here now, that only applies to most people in Class 6. If those people in Class 6 really want to do something here, they can't control them at all; they can only hope that Qin Su will come to them from the sky.
Patrick switched his Optical Brain back to normal mode and shook his head in refusal. "Then let's forget about it."
At first, the students from Class 6) arrived with their original faces, but every time someone recognized them, it caused a commotion.
Most people who come here want to see Qin Su in person, but that's impossible. So, the tourists naturally focus their attention on Class 6). Class 6) is regarded by everyone as Qin Su's substitute... no, not a substitute. In everyone's mind, no one in Class 6) is worthy of being compared with Qin Su. Everyone just regards Class 6) as a way to understand and get closer to Qin Su. There are countless people who want to run into Class 6).
Naturally, there were also quite a few people who took advantage of the chaos to Assassination Class 6), causing several disturbances. Even if most of the people from Class 6) came, they carefully hid their tracks.
Rather than saying he was curious about whether there were any people from Class 6 down there, it would be more accurate to say that he was constantly wary of the appearance of people from Class 6. However, given his current situation, no matter how uneasy he was, he could not take the dangerous action of actively provoking others by searching for traces of Class 6.
[He said he didn't care, but he was worried every day. He went up to the highest point and looked down. He knew that any place where he left traces of the Boss 1 would become a place that the group of people from Class 6 would linger. He still chose this place. He was just asking for trouble.]
[To gain safety, you always have to lose something; nothing is perfect. For him, choosing a place unrelated to Qin Su would mean an even faster death. Of all the places related to Qin Su, this place is the poorest. By choosing this place, he didn't compete with others, making things much easier for He Muzhi with the others.]
[You didn't expect this, did you? There are three people from Class 6 here now. Tsk tsk, they're all from the same class, yet they didn't even greet each other when they arrived. They're really wary of each other.]
[It's good that they're wary, but their wariness and suspicion make people feel uneasy. I'm making a prediction: sooner or later, many people in Class 6 will turn against each other. Of course, the premise is that the God Su doesn't appear, otherwise, no matter how much thought Class 6 has, they'll immediately shut up and behave themselves.]
[Just dropping a comment, God Su appeared and tagged me, my ID is 'Mi, dare to fart at me']
[Your ID looks familiar, but God Su has been gone for a year. There are 365 days in a year, and you've said that for 365 days straight. Which day were you missing when you came to me eagerly? Why would I need anyone else? @(facepalm)]
[I understand these people so well. I thought that since God Su hadn't appeared for so long, this manga would definitely lose a lot of fans. But who would have thought that every page would be filled with Suga fans saying things like, "Did he show up in the dorm today?" or "No, waaaaah, he'll come back to ask again tomorrow... no, the next second." Can't you Suga fans have some backbone? Even if no one asks for a day, can't you?]
[Mind your own business when it comes to Su Bao! Waaaaah! When will Su Bao appear? Su Bao, do you know how I've survived without you? (Sobbing uncontrollably)]
[That's right, no way! No one in this world can stop us from finding the whereabouts of Boss 1!]
[Do you think that if someone in Class 6 dies, the God Su will attend their funeral?]
[What are you dreaming about? People in the Comic World don't know, but don't we? We can all see it clearly. Boss 1 coldly said 'goodbye forever' to them. Everyone, wake up! Be prepared that Boss 1 will never appear in front of Class 6 again. So... please appear in front of us fans! We're not from Class 6, and you didn't say goodbye to us. We're practically all within your reach (starry eyes)]
[Logical genius! I believe it!]
