Burning, killing, looting, they call me a saint

He was transferred from the Institute of Scientific Management to the central library administrator of the college. Many of his colleagues in the central department thought he was crazy.

But only he and Cheng Che understood what he wanted to do, why he would rather lower his rank and salary to come here.

Zhao Mingda looked at the young, beautiful and energetic students in the college, and recalled his student days with some emotion.

He saw a group of students from a dance troupe who had just finished a performance in the theater and were walking out with laughter.

I also saw a group of specially recruited students who had just been brought into the academy and were receiving their student cards, looking very cautious and timid.

Finally, his gaze fixed on the bank of the Zhiming River that ran through the entire college, where a young man in a gray special admissions uniform was standing there with his head lowered, blankly.

He seemed like some famous person, and a lot of people gathered around him. They were all regular students who had no classes in the afternoon. However, the behavior and actions of those students were obviously very offensive, which made Zhao Mingda, who was still feeling sentimental, frown deeply.

He put out the cigarette in his hand, walked down the office building with the newly completed documents, and came to the river.

"Don't you have any sense of shame? If I were you, I would just jump into the river and drown myself!"

"You really ruin the reputation of the academy. You are willing to do anything to gain some benefits for yourselves."

"All your classmates have been sold out, why are you still here? Damn you! You just want to trick them into joining you in raising their profile, and then let them die, right?"

"This guy is a complete rotten person. Not to mention cheating, the 38 people in that group probably wanted to make a big fuss about that incident so they could get compensation from the college!"

"No. They are not." No matter how others cursed him, the young man did not say anything back, like a wooden man. After hearing these words, he moved his mouth and finally opened his mouth to defend himself.

However, he had just opened his mouth, and his voice was so soft that many people could not hear it, but he was immediately subjected to even more intense verbal abuse and attacks!

"Go to hell! How dare you say no!"

"Are there any warriors? Quick! Are there any warriors playing today? I have an acquaintance in the Discipline Department. If you dare to beat him up, I will use my connections to get you out!"

"Find a special recruit to do it! It won't cost much!"

There were also people taking photos with communicators, intending to post them on the college forum to gather more people.

However, an old but powerful voice interrupted the voices of everyone here.

"What are you all doing here? Making so much noise!"

The students surrounding him turned to look at the source of the voice. Zhao Mingda had developed such authority during his long time in the detention center that he intimidated a large number of people.

In addition, his attire clearly indicated that he was a senior faculty member, which made the students feel a little indignant, but they slowly began to disperse.

When most people had left and only the silent young man with his head down was left by the river, Zhao Mingda put on a cold face and stood with his hands behind his back. He did not look at the specially recruited student, but turned and walked towards the central library.

He came over and scolded everyone because he felt that the atmosphere in the academy should not be like this. This is a rational temple for acquiring knowledge and pursuing truth, not a filthy place for attacks and insults.

After being rescued, even though he was not even looked at, the special recruit named Zhu Long, who had just been released from the confinement management department, still bowed from a distance to the straight figure as a token of gratitude.

When there was finally no one around watching, he slowly squatted down by the Zhiming River, took out a bottle of wine from his arms, unscrewed the cap, and poured the wine into the river.

"You said before that you wanted to try it but you couldn't come up with the money because you had to support your family. I bought it today. Drink it. This is the only thing I can do to make up for it. It's all my fault."

He muttered to himself, watched the wine in the bottle being completely emptied, and then stood up again.

After putting away the empty bottle, Zhu Long began to return to the dormitory area for special admissions students along the shade of the trees by the river.

He didn't take the tram because he knew he would be kicked out if he got in.

He walked a full 20 miles, avoiding all crowded roads and hiding in the shadows of the walls like a cockroach or a rat. He walked for more than two hours, and it was already dark when he finally returned to the dormitory.

His four-person dormitory, which was originally half empty, had two new special admissions students move in today.

Zhu Long was as dull as a log. Another roommate who had lived with him for more than a year greeted him, but he just nodded silently in response.

Levi, who was assigned to this dormitory, recognized this plain-looking, taciturn young man as soon as he entered the door.

He was the one who was reported in the newspaper as the leader who gathered 37 special recruits in the college to hold a protest against a decision made by the Student Union to express their dissatisfaction and slander, and was eventually caught by the Disciplinary Department.

The news in the newspaper that Levi saw on the train was a little delayed. The incident in the college had been tried five days ago, and the other 37 people were expelled and sold to other dungeons as laborers to compensate for their student loans.

Only the young man named Zhu Long was left behind. He was punished with two weeks of confinement and a semester of unpaid labor, and then released.

This undoubtedly led him to endless accusations and abuses. The college's news department reported many articles on this incident, most of which were groundless speculations, saying that he was trying to avoid being expelled, and as the organizer he shifted all the blame onto others.

He also said that those who gathered to protest wanted to use the incident of special admissions students breaking into a restricted area and beating up regular students to coerce the student union and gain benefits for themselves.

In short, the name Zhu Long has become notorious in the academy, and no matter whether he is a regular student or a special student, they all have a bad attitude towards him.

After he left the dormitory with his toiletries, the senior who had enthusiastically introduced Levi and another new freshman to the college said with a somewhat lonely look.

"They just wanted to seek justice together. They were too naive. After coming to the academy, they thought that this place was different from other cities and some things would be different, but in fact, everything was the same."

He seemed to have just sighed, still very careful, and had no intention of saying more about the matter. Then he seriously reminded Levi and the others.

"You must be careful not to think that special recruits are also students and part of the college. We are not part of the college. We are just the most numerous consumables in the college! When the college needs us, we are valuable and have the opportunity to have a dialogue. When we are not needed, don't try to talk to others about so-called fairness and reason!"

"This doesn't exist in other cities, and it doesn't exist in the academy either!"

The new student nodded as if he understood, but Levi's eyes had already fallen on Zhu Long's empty bed.

About an hour later, just when the enthusiastic senior was about to call Li Wei and the other person to have dinner, Zhu Long finally came back.

He looked like he had washed up, and his mental state was a little different from before. He was holding a bottle of juice and some side dishes in his hands.

Such a change made the enthusiastic senior look a little surprised and delighted. He finally let out a long sigh of relief and patted Zhu Long on the back.

"That's what I said. There's nothing to get over. We're all like this now. If people want to scold us, then let them scold us."

Zhu Long heard his words, nodded and smiled. His smile was not happy, but it was at least a smile.

He invited Levi and the other two newcomers to dinner. During the dinner, he still spoke very little, but when the enthusiastic senior student next to him was introducing some things about the college to them, he would add a few words from time to time, looking like he had really come out of the shadow of the past and the abuse of reality.

But Levi kept looking at him while eating and felt that things didn't seem to be the case.

After dinner, as the night gradually deepened, the four people in the dormitory went to bed.

Levi didn't sleep. He put his arms under his head and looked at the dark night quietly.

Time passed slowly, and around midnight, when a dull bell rang from the clock tower in the center of the academy, a figure sat up on the bed where Zhu Long was.

He put on his clothes very gently so as not to disturb anyone, and then slowly walked out of the dormitory.

Just as he slowly closed the door from the outside, a suppressed and low cry was heard from the bed of the senior who had enthusiastically entertained Levi and the others during the day.

Zhu Long walked on the empty college road avoiding all surveillance cameras. He was wearing thin clothes and the evening breeze made him shiver, but he still walked step by step towards the bridge over the Zhiming River.

He came to the highest point of the bridge, climbed up the guardrail and grabbed the pillar on the side with one hand, quietly looking at the river water that was dimly visible under the light of the street lamps on both sides, and stood like this for a long time.

"I hope there really is a paradise for humans in Twilight."

After muttering these words, he loosened his hand and jumped out.

However, just as his body began to fall, a strong arm suddenly grabbed his hand!

Zhu Long looked up in astonishment and saw the new special student who had just arrived at the college today and was assigned to the same dormitory with him, looking at him with a smile.

"There is no paradise in Twilight, but there are monsters with dozens of eyes. Do you still dare to die?"

Chapter 118 Have you ever thought about dragging him to be buried with you?

"Qian Wei.?"

The bridge over the Zhiming River is very high, very wide and very long.

In the summer, the college holds sailing competitions on this large underground river, and the bridge is filled with spectating students.

And now, on such a dark night, there are no sailboats, no cheers, and no passion for life.

There is only a zombie-like person who wants to end his life at this moment.

Zhu Long looked into Levi's eyes that were still bright in the dark. He was still very polite, and his voice could even be said to be a little cowardly as he asked.

"Can you please let go?"

Levi didn't let go of his hand, nor did he pull him up. He just said lightly.

"If you're not afraid of death, then what are you afraid of?"

Zhu Long didn't say a word. He was like a puppet without a soul, being dragged in the air by Levi, swaying slightly on the edge of the bridge in the cold night wind.

His silence didn't bother Levi.

"Look, I can actually pull you up at any time, but I haven't done it yet because I respect other people's choices. I pulled you up because I'm curious about your story. You're going to die anyway, so can you tell me why you've come to this point?"

Zhu Long, whose arm was grabbed and hung in the air, looked through the deep night at the clock tower standing in the middle of the academy. After Levi asked the question, he remained silent.

But this time the silence did not last long. Finally, after two or three minutes, his voice, which sounded calm and emotionless, rang out.

"It's my fault. I had an illusion that made me think that the city of the college was different from other cities, that true equality existed, and that truth could be explained here. Because of my ignorance and my self-righteousness, I killed them, 37 of them."

Levi was holding onto a person like this without feeling any tiredness at all. He could even turn around and hold onto Zhu Long instead, while he leaned against the guardrail, letting the moisture be blown up. The cool, moist wind blew across his face, causing him to squint his eyes.

"Do you want to join others to protest to the academy about the incident in which three special students broke into the restricted area and beat up regular students, and to seek justice for those three special students?"

"They are going to look for someone." Zhu Long's voice was calm, as if he no longer had any psychological fluctuations about such things.

"A pretty and lively girl who loves dancing and is a bit conceited. We have been classmates for more than a year. She has often secretly watched the training and performances of the college dance club, but because she is a special admissions student, she is not eligible, and she has never had such delusions."

"She spent most of her free time working in the college. Except for the portion she earned for her living, she sent all the rest back home. She only had one mother, who was ill and difficult to treat. Because her mother was a prostitute when she was young, she didn't know who her father was. She earned the money for school by working as a maid for rich families. She started when she was 12 and earned it for five years."

"She came to the college without thinking about any big career path in the future. She just heard that she could earn much more money as a part-time special recruit than doing manual labor outside, so she came here."

"Then the regular student fell in love with her, used money to seduce her, threatened her with her mother's illness, and even used her special admission status to coerce her. How could a girl from a family like her have the right to talk about dignity and chastity? She wanted to give in, and she had already given in."

"Every time she came back, she was covered in bruises. Her friends who used to be very close to her looked at her differently, distanced themselves from her, and insulted her behind her back, saying she was a bitch like her mother. But she would still smile and pretend not to care what those people said behind her back. She would chat with everyone as usual, imagine the world, and fantasize about the beauty of the future. She would say that everyone would always be friends."

"Then that night, we found out that the regular student had cheated her. He never gave the poor girl a penny, not even a penny."

Even when he said this, Zhu Long's tone did not show any ripples, just like the water of the Zhiming River beneath him, as indifferent as a mirror that would never produce any waves.

"She said that night that she had to go ask for money because her mother couldn't hold on any longer. If she didn't send money home, she might never have a home again."

"She never came back."

"We contacted the Discipline Department, and they investigated for two days, only to give us a ridiculous reply. They said that she had violated the school rules by engaging in prostitution in the academy, and that at the moment she violated the school rules, she was no longer a student of the academy, so whether she lived or died was not the responsibility of the academy. But she was really tortured, but she didn't get a penny."

"Of course, such things made us, who were naive at the time, very angry. In our eyes, the academy was the temple of truth. There might be a gap between regular students and special students, but in terms of justice, the academy should be equal. We questioned the regular student, but he sneered at us and said that in front of us, he was justice."

"Three of us who really couldn't stand it found a special time, rushed into his private apartment and beat him up. The Discipline Department caught them that night and quickly judged them, expelled them, and resold them because they violated the justice of this city."

Having said this, he suddenly laughed. It was a very low laugh, and it was a mockery, a mockery of himself.

"Then I thought I could still save them. I thought I might be able to get some leniency from the academy because I had some talent. I wanted to gather other special recruits and make a big fuss about this. But when this matter was just a hint, the academy caught everyone in one fell swoop."

"Including me, there were 38 people who were convicted as the leaders. The other 37 were expelled or sold. The academy was indeed more lenient with me. They only allowed me to stay. They only allowed me to stay alive."

Perhaps it was because Levi had become numb to similar things, from Sun to Zhulan and then to the academy. He was now calm as water and did not feel any different emotions. He just felt that the wind tonight was a little dazzling, even more unpleasant than the terrible sandstorm in Sun.

"Three special recruits were able to beat up that Axiom. Is he an ordinary person?" Levi asked casually, as if this was the only thing he was interested in in the story.

Zhu Long answered silently.

"He asked someone to take the exam for him a month ago and passed the theory of nature exam. But after getting the key, he didn't dare to use it right away. If he doesn't have enough theoretical knowledge, he can't become a scientist even if he gets the key. So he got the key first and wanted to wait a while."

"Weren't all your classmates expelled and sold? Why do you sound like you think they're dead?"

"In order to recover the value of their student loans, the college will sell them to the most difficult and dangerous positions. There has never been a record of any special recruit who was expelled and resold returning home alive."

"Tsk."

Hearing this, Levi smacked his lips.

"I have a suggestion, would you like to hear it?"

After Zhu Long finished telling what Levi wanted to hear and answered his questions, he seemed to have returned to the silence of a man who was determined to die. He continued to float in the air. As long as Levi let go, he would fall into the bottomless underground river!

"It's fine if you want to die, but before you die, have you ever thought about dragging that so-called axiom along with your classmates to be buried with you?"

After hearing these words, Zhu Long raised his head again, and this time Li Wei also lowered his head sideways.

The two pairs of eyes looked at each other again, and Levi saw a ball of fire in those eyes that had become empty, numb and dead.

The fire called revenge!

"I thought about it." His voice was still calm, "But after the beating, he kept a lot of dogs in his private apartment. If I get close, I will be discovered."

"what."

Levi sneered, not laughing at Zhu Long, but he really found it a little funny.

He has killed the councils of two cities, and now the biggest problem he faces before going to the academy to kill someone is that he has a dog at home.

"I'll help you solve the dog problem. Do you dare to kill him?"
