Top-Ranked Gigolo, Chen Sui!
The fishy smell brought by the waves filled the air.
White seagulls floated in the distance, creating a scene resembling a paradise.
At that moment, an ocean-going cargo ship slowly passed by from more than 20 kilometers away. The words "Hu's Transportation Group" were written on the hull, but the people on board seemed not to see the island at all.
Qing Chen stood at the entrance of the Key Gate, silently surveying the area. He glanced at the position of the sun and silently calculated the time zone and distance.
The kid he had just confronted also came out of the door, but didn't dare to say anything more to Qing Chen and walked straight towards the dormitory area.
Qing Chen looked up at the sun and then visually estimated the angle of the shadow on the ground.
It seems that Whale Island's location in the Pacific Ocean at this moment is somewhat different from what Jiang Xue described to him...
Therefore, Whale Island is indeed constantly moving.
"Are you calculating its location? How's the view here? Pretty nice, huh?" someone said.
Qing Chen turned around and was shocked to see Zheng Yuandong and He Jinqiu standing on the edge of the cliff not far behind him.
Boss Zheng was still wearing a Zhongshan suit, while He Jinqiu smiled faintly, his hand never leaving his black scepter.
Qing Chen asked with a smile, "Is this black scepter Forbidden Item? But it doesn't seem to be listed in the records of the Inner World Federation?"
He Jinqiu smiled nonchalantly and said, "My friends in North America are too kind. They insisted on giving this to me. I said I didn't want it, and in a fit of anger, they gave me their life and the scepter together."
"That's too kind of you," Qing Chen said with emotion. "I wish I had a friend like that."
"There are many, but you have to find them yourself," He Jinqiu said with a smile.
Qing Chen said, "Congratulations on Boss He's election as the executive director of Hu Corporation Intelligence Agency."
He Jinqiu shook his head. "Although I am the executive director, managing all the operations of the organization, there is still an independent director responsible for supervising me, so I can't do whatever I want. I plan to help Ms. Li Changqing become an independent director of the organization. What do you think?"
"Why are you asking me? You should ask her," Qing Chen said.
At this moment, Qing Chen became serious. "During the rescue operation, you two assisted Li Changqing in the fight, and I thank you for that. One is a neutral observer leader, and the other is the executive director of the neutral Hu Corporation Intelligence Agency. It's not easy to get you two to make such a clear decision. I appreciate your help."
Zheng Yuandong shook his head. "Actually, He Jinqiu and I have always had the same stance, which is to protect our fellow Chinese Time Walker in the Outer World. Of course, you are also within our protection scope."
Qing Chen suddenly asked, "You two should be the earliest 'players' to enter the Inner World, right? I'd like to ask if you know why the time travel incident occurred, and why there are Time Walker?"
He Jinqiu pondered for a moment, "There is no conclusion yet. There are two speculations. One is that the problems in the Inner World are too deep-rooted to be resolved, so an external force is needed to break this balance."
Zheng Yuandong said, "Another possibility is that the Forbidden Zone will cover the entire Federation, and someone is preparing for the people of the Inner World to relocate to the Outer World. Of course, our guesses may not be correct."
Qing Chen didn't ask any more questions. What he really wanted to ask was who the person who orchestrated the time-travel incident was. Since Zheng Yuandong and He Jinqiu were beta testers, they must know who this person was.
But by asking this question, he essentially knew the two people's beta test identities.
Those who know about the beta testers, aside from people like the Qing Clan's shadow and the clan head who have access to the pinnacle of power, are most likely beta testers.
In this way, Zheng Yuandong and He Jinqiu could also guess that he was not Outer World.
Zheng Yuandong asked, "Shall we try the Key Gate?"
Qing Chen was somewhat puzzled. "Kunlun has been trying to get me to attend their school, and they've been putting on a show of giving me the True Sight Eye if I enroll. What exactly are they planning?"
Zheng Yuandong laughed heartily, "No need to be so vigilant, no rush, take your time. Go report in, the Bai Zhou members have arrived. There's one thing I need to remind you: Bai Zhou is just a student here, equal to the other students."
Qing Chen seemed to be thinking, "Could it be that one of the Daylight members caused trouble?"
"This sign only indicates the direction of the dormitories. Where are the teaching buildings?" Qing Chen looked around and saw only the dormitory area, which looked like a galaxy, but he couldn't see the teaching area. Could it be on the other side of the island?
The island is the size of a city, and you can't see the end of it at a glance.
On the other side of the island, Qing Chen clearly saw a lush, dense forest... It was clearly a Forbidden Zone.
Qing Chen bid farewell to Zheng Yuandong and He Jinqiu and headed towards the hotel-style dormitory.
He Jinqiu said softly, "This time you wanted to set up a school in the Northwest, but you were rejected. What was the reason for the rejection?"
Zheng Yuandong said, "The reason is that the Time Walker are too unstable and have a tendency to commit violent crimes, and they don't want to add this unstable factor."
He Jinqiu smiled and said, "It's really impressive that you were able to find Whale Island. Otherwise, we probably wouldn't even have a place to set up a school. Bringing Whale Island from the Inner World must have come at a great cost. You see, Time Walker are also human beings, also our fellow citizens, but they are not accepted by all ordinary people."
"What are you trying to say? Do you want to create a place that belongs only to Time Walker?" Zheng Yuandong asked, looking into the distance.
He Jinqiu smiled and paused on the black scepter in his hand, "You know what I'm going to say, and I will do it. Last month, one of my Jiuzhou members was ambushed by seven ordinary people while on a mission, and they took away his mechanical limbs; another Jiuzhou member's identity as Time Walker was discovered, and when his neighbor's house caught fire due to aging wiring, those people said it must have been him, the Time Walker, who caused the damage and made him pay compensation; yet another Jiuzhou member had a mechanical limb, and his neighbor complained that his mechanical limb emitted too much radiation, causing headaches for the elderly in his family... Sergeant, this world is not only full of smart and rational people, but also many people who are afraid of radiation from telecommunications base stations. Some of them are jealous of Time Walker, and some are hostile to Time Walker."
Zheng Yuandong remained silent; Kunlun members had encountered similar situations before.
He Jinqiu said, "I will not allow this to happen to any member of Jiuzhou again, and you wouldn't want this to happen to any member of Kunlun either."
With that, he stepped through the Key Gate and returned to Kunlun Bookstore.
At that moment, inside the Kunlun Bookstore, Lu Yuan was directing the Kunlun people. "Come on, take down the iron gate."
Several Kunlun members removed the iron gate from the wall. Only then did He Jinqiu realize that the iron gate used to open the Key Gate was actually movable...
The Key Gate opens on the iron gate; wherever the iron gate is, there lies the spatial passage.
Therefore, the position of the iron gate does not need to be fixed.
I wonder where Kunlun is going to hide the iron gate.
He Jinqiu suddenly thought of the phrase "fleeing through the door." If someone were to take this iron gate away, who knew what would happen...
Wait a minute, this Key Gate can be used as a mobile troop deployment point, and Whale Island is a natural forward base.
Which enemy could have imagined that tens of thousands of people could suddenly emerge from a broken iron gate that had been torn down?
In the dormitory, Chen Sui was talking quietly with a roommate. "Although we've come to the academy, the development of the Matrix Organization can't stop. I asked around at the academy, and it turns out that not only can we rent server rooms on this island, but we can also rent laboratories. I've already submitted a procurement list to Kunlun, and they will transport the equipment we need in."
This is the high school dormitory area, with four people per room, furnished with two bunk beds, and it's relatively simple.
There were only three people in the room. One of them was calmly lying on the bed looking at the news on his phone, while Chen Sui was chatting with another roommate, Tang Wei, who was also a member of the matrix.
Tang Wei exclaimed, "I thought coming to the island would mean living a completely secluded life, but I didn't expect it to be even more comfortable than home. At home, there are people watching over you, and you have to turn off the lights and go to sleep after midnight. Here, you can play until whatever time you want without anyone telling you. Yesterday, I had my cousin take me to the billiards room, and there were even some experts there."
Most Chinese students are like this; they experience high-pressure learning during middle school, with parents forbidding them from doing this or that.
They forbid early romantic relationships, gaming, and going out for entertainment.
As a result, many students become particularly indulgent and eager to find girlfriends after going to university far from home.
It's like they couldn't find girlfriends before because their parents wouldn't allow it.
Chen Sui glanced at him and said, "Although no one is watching, you still have to attend classes during the day, so you should still be more restrained."
Tang Wei whispered, "Boss, is that top male escort from City 22 really not you? He looks a lot like you."
Chen Sui's face darkened. "It's definitely not me. Haven't I been in City No. 7 the whole time? Why would I have time to go to City 22? Besides, that's the territory of the Gods. We're low-caste people there. Why would we go there if we have nothing better to do?"
"That's true, but they look so alike, even the names are the same... I heard that a female celebrity paid two million to buy your, no, to buy that gigolo's virginity."
"Don't mention it again!" Chen Sui's expression changed. "I already said it wasn't me."
"There's still one roommate who hasn't arrived yet. I wonder what kind of person he is. Why hasn't he come to report for duty this late?" Tang Wei said.
The moment the words were spoken, the dormitory door was pushed open.
Qing Chen stared at Chen Sui in the room for a moment, then felt a sense of familiarity.
Looking at Chen Sui now, it was as if he were seeing himself in City 22. How could he not feel a sense of familiarity?
"Hello everyone," Qing Chen said with a smile, "You must be my roommates. Let's get to know each other. My name is Chen Nian."
Chen Sui stood up and shook hands. "Hello, Matrix, Chen Sui."
Qing Chen's eyes lit up. "Hey, aren't you that top male escort from City 22? Wow, I'm so happy to see you here! Can I get your autograph? I heard you've had drinks with the famous actress Qiao Yu!"
Chen Sui: "... That's not me."
"How could it not be? I've seen the photos!" Qing Chen said with a chuckle.
"No, it's really not!" Chen Sui exclaimed anxiously.
Qing Chen ignored him and instead looked at Tang Wei on the other side. "Hello."
"My name is Tang Wei."
Qing Chen then looked at his roommate lying on the bed, who glanced at him and said, "Liu Ning from the Red Leaf Organization."
Tang Wei lightened the mood by saying, "I heard that the academy will be divided into houses, just like Hogwarts."
"It's different," Chen Sui said calmly. "Hogwarts uses the Sorting Hat to distinguish each person's personality and character. Here, the Sorting Hat distinguishes between elites and slackers. Elites learn more skills, while slackers learn how to survive."
There will be another chapter before 11 o'clock.
