Classes continued until eleven thirty in the morning.
Zhang Qian called three times.
The first time: "Second Lieutenant Lin, the administration office at Ping'an County No. 3 Middle School isn't cooperating. They say it involves student privacy."

The third time: "I asked someone at the Ping'an County Education Bureau, too. They said there are indeed a few students at that school who are pretty 'active,' but they couldn't give me any details. Still, one name came up several times. A student in Grade 2 Class 4 named Zhao Qiang."

Lin Feng committed the name to memory.
Eleven thirty-five.
The bell rang.
Students streamed out of the school building, chattering noisily.
Lin Feng stood and headed for the school gate.
His Psychic Power had been monitoring Xiao Yu's whereabouts the whole time.
Xiao Yu wasn't heading for the school gate.
She was going toward the back of the school building.
Lin Feng frowned.
Three other people were walking with her.
Three boys' footsteps.
One of them spoke.
"Lin Xiaoyu, the money you gave us last week wasn't enough. Brother Qiang says this week's amount is five thousand."
Xiao Yu's voice was small. "I really don't have that much..."
"You don't? Didn't your brother transfer you a big sum? Quit pretending to be broke and hand it over."
"That's
