Balancing Merits and Faults
After receiving Sheng Yitian's call, Squad Leader Zeng Guangming immediately instructed Shen Biao to lead a team to Yuehai Hotel.
On the way there, Shen Biao used his military corps authority to access surveillance footage from the hotel and nearby roads.
I obtained the relevant information.
Firstly, it was to find out what Luo Yan had done.
Secondly, it prevents the surveillance video from being tampered with.
That's why the large screen at Yuehai Hotel now displays clear video footage of the incident.
Chu Tianyou frowned.
He didn't know beforehand that Luo Yan was an exchange student from the Canghe Academy, nor did he know that he had participated in the Corps' mission.
He would make thorough preparations if he knew even one of Luo Yan's identities.
But now, it's too late to say anything.
soon.
On the large screen at Yuehai Hotel, the events had progressed to the point where Luo Yan and Chu Yunfei were face to face.
The image freezes at this moment.
And magnify it.
So people could see it Chuchu.
Chu Yunfei suddenly pulled out a pistol.
What they want to do is self-evident.
Shen Biao looked at Chu Tianyou: "Did you see that?"
"Mr. Chu."
"Your good son is just like his friends."
"They all want to use guns to hurt our Mech Master."
"Are we Mech Master supposed to do nothing and just let your son shoot us?"
"Does your son think he's superior to us Mech Master?"
"Does your son, Chu Tianyou, have the right to shoot a ' Qingcheng Warrior '?!"
Three questions in a row.
The question left Chu Tianyou in a dilemma: to answer or not to answer.
at last.
Chu Tianyou gritted his teeth and said, "Even so, he shouldn't have killed my son!"
"Yunfei drew his gun in a moment of impulse."
"He could easily subdue Yunfei; he wouldn't need to kill anyone!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
Sudden.
Shen Biao quickly drew a pistol and pointed it at Chu Tianyou.
Chu Tianyou's expression changed immediately, and the bodyguards around him all drew their pistols and pointed them at Shen Biao.
Chu Tianyou then shouted, "What are you trying to do!"
Shen Biao smiled.
Put away the pistol.
"See? You're being held at gunpoint, and you're still trying to kill me the moment you see me."
"We Mech Master fight against behemoths, and the number of life-or-death challenges we face every day is beyond your imagination."
"When our lives are threatened, we don't think about subduing our opponent, we think about killing them."
"Only by killing them can we ensure our own safety."
"Do you want us to subdue the giant beast instead of killing it when faced with its threat?"
Therefore, Luo Yan's reaction was entirely out of habit!
"Besides, your son pointed a gun at a hero who saved tens of thousands of lives."
"Tell me, if he shouldn't have died, then who should have died!"
Chu Tianyou was speechless.
Shen Biao said, "Normally, civilians threatening Mech Master with guns should be held accountable."
"But considering the deceased's dignity, we'll let it go this time."
He looked up.
Look around.
"Get out of the way!"
"Anyone who dares to obstruct us will be executed first and reported later!"
All the Mech Master simultaneously released their Primal Energy fluctuations, instantly creating a storm that spread outwards.
The security guards all turned pale; they couldn't withstand such pressure and killing Qi.
Their hands and feet were trembling.
They dared not stop them.
The same applies to Chu Tianyou.
They could only watch helplessly as the soldiers took Luo Yan away.
After a while...
Chu Tianyou gritted his teeth and said, "Take the young master's body away!"
An hour later.
The Chu Family Mansion.
Chu Zhao looked at Chu Yunfei lying in the coffin in the newly arranged Mourning Hall.
Looking at his own grandson.
I remember how clever and adorable this child was when he was little.
But now, he lies in a cold coffin.
He was forever separated from himself by death.
beside.
Chu Tianmei cried her eyes out.
She and Ding Yang had no children of their own, and she always treated this nephew as her own.
She never expected that her husband had passed away not long ago.
Today, I watched my nephew die.
A wave of sorrow washed over me.
Chu Zhao, expressionless, helped his daughter up.
We walked out of the Mourning Hall and into the main hall.
Upon seeing his son, Chu Tianyou, Chu Zhao suddenly erupted, grabbing a stick to strike Chu Tianyou.
"I've repeatedly told you all to stay home and behave yourselves during this time."
Why won't you listen!
"Why was Yunfei released?!"
Chu Tianyou didn't dodge, and after taking a blow from his father's stick, he said, "I haven't heard of that. I also mentioned Yunfei."
[I recommend Yeguo Reading; it's really good for tracking books. You can download it here: yeguoyuedu. Everyone should give it a try!]
"But we had guests tonight, and I was careless for a moment. I didn't expect Yunfei to sneak out to celebrate his birthday."
"Yunfei is my son. Do you think I want something to happen to him?"
Chu Tianmei tried to stop her father, saying, "Dad, will it do any good to hit my older brother now?"
Yunfei is dead!
She gritted her teeth and said, "Look at him, it's Luo Yan again!"
"He wants to kill all the members of the Chu Family!"
Chu Zhao put down the stick and shook his head. "Judging from the video, this seems more like a coincidence."
"No matter how powerful Luo is, he couldn't possibly know that Fei'er was celebrating her birthday at Yuehai tonight."
"Moreover, Yunfei's death is inextricably linked to his friends."
"I always tell him to be careful when making friends, but he just won't listen."
"Now we're being dragged down by these people!"
Chu Zhao added, "But even if it was a coincidence, even if Yunfei made the first move."
"But he is my eldest grandson, Chu Zhao!"
"He is the successor of my Chu Family!"
"That mere brat dared to kill my grandson! I will not let him get away with this!"
Chu Tianyou immediately said, "Dad, I'll make the arrangements."
Chu Zhao snorted, "By the time you go and make the arrangements, it'll be too late."
"I've already spoken to the Corps."
"They will revoke Luo Yan's title of ' Qingyang Warrior,' and their merits and demerits will cancel each other out."
In other words, they will no longer protect this student.
"But if we let him enter the Academy and hide, he'll remain dormant."
"It's also difficult for us to take action within the Academy."
"So, tonight is his journey back to the Academy from the military corps."
"This is the best opportunity!"
"I've made all the arrangements; now we just need to wait for the results."

Corps Headquarters.
Class Squad Leader's Office (Second Class)
Luo Yan met Zeng Guangming.
Zeng Guangming gave a wry smile.
Then he said...
"It's alright now."
"Of course, only on the surface."
"No one can guarantee what the Chu Family might do behind the scenes."
Luo Yan nodded.
Zeng Guangming continued, "You have made a great contribution, and the Corps will definitely protect you."
"Even if you didn't kill in self-defense, the military will still protect you."
"Of course, if it's the latter, you will definitely be severely punished."
"I won't die."
"I'll at least skin you alive."
"But if you were acting in self-defense, that's a different story."
Luo Yan nodded again.
Zeng Guangming smiled and said, "However, even if you acted in self-defense, the person who died was Chu Yunfei, and the military corps is under a lot of pressure."
"Therefore, I hereby reclaim your glorious title of ' Qingyang Warrior '."
"We've publicly stated that our merits and demerits cancel each other out, and we hope you understand."
"The reason for doing this is that the Corps receives a sum of money from the ' Red Alliance Merchant Association ' every year."
"Therefore, at least publicly, we need to give the other party an explanation."
Luo Yan uttered two words: "Understand."
Zeng Guangming added, "However, the promise I made to you before still stands."
"No matter when you want to join the corps, you will still hold the rank of major."
"You will receive every penny of the reward you are entitled to."
Luo Yan nodded.
Zeng Guangming sighed and said, "The Chu Family has a huge influence in Qingyang. Chu Zhao is in the business circle, and Chu Mo is in the Undercity government."
"You'd better stay in the Academy for the time being and not wander around."
"If there are missions or Academy activities, it's best not to act alone."
"Alright."
"Nothing much for now, you can go back."
Be careful on the road.
Luo Yan nodded.
They left the Corps headquarters.
