"Only those who are forced to throw bowls and tables overturn." Frost rang the bell and said coldly. He threw a document on the table, "Then how do you explain this?"
The file slid from the desktop to Lin Nian's hand. He picked it up and glanced at it, and found a photo hanging on it. In the photo, it showed the wreckage of a Mercedes-Benz S500. The entire car's paint had been washed away by the rain and turned into its original iron gray.
It looked like a high-pressure water cannon had been sprayed on it. The twisted metal frame showed that it had been subjected to huge pressure and blows. In particular, the skylight had a huge hole, leaving traces like a knife.
"Around June, in that coastal city in China, you were assigned to investigate an illegal mixed-race gathering. The school board received a report that after getting off the plane, you violently snatched the car of the logistics staff of the executive department and drove it brutally onto the beltway.
...Then you disappeared from Norma's surveillance for three full hours! When you last appeared, you were already in the city center dozens of kilometers away from the airport." Frost stared at Lin Nian, "These three disappeared people
What did you do for hours? Why did the car you drove away appear in a scrapped form in the wilderness one kilometer away from the beltway? "
The room once again fell into a high-pressure atmosphere. All the school directors looked at the boy at the end, waiting for his answer. He looked down at the file and pondered for a long, long time before finally looking up and saying, "This time the surveillance video on the highway
Didn’t you record me? You don’t know where I went?”
"If I had, I wouldn't have asked you this question. Please don't delay. This is a very powerful accusation." Frost rang the bell and said in a deep voice.
"Oh, in that case, it means I crashed the car." Lin Nian said calmly, throwing the document back on the table.
"Crash? Are you kidding me?"
"What evidence do you have that I didn't crash the car?" Lin Nian frowned and looked at Frost, "You don't even have surveillance video, where is the evidence to refute me? And you don't even know the common sense of Chinese law? Where are you?
It should be clearly stated in the record that I am 17 years old and not yet legally old enough to take a driver's license, so isn't it normal for me to have a car accident while driving violently?"
"I can testify to this." Before Frost could ring the bell, Angers's bell rang. He bit his cigar and nodded, "He is indeed not old enough to take the driver's license test!"
"Ange, this proves nothing." The old man in black suit rang the bell.
"No, this proves nothing." Frost raised the bell, but Ange's ringing knocked him down again. He looked at Lin Nian and asked, "Lin Nian, do you have a driver's license?"
"No." Lin Nian rang the bell.
"What a coincidence, because I don't have one either." Angers rang the bell.
"Principal, you don't have one either?" Lin Nian interrupted Frost's bell ringing.
"In my time, the driver's license had not been invented yet. A car was just a toy. No one wanted to buy a toy and had to prove it by driving it on the road." Angers continued to ring the bell to interrupt Frost.
"So, principal, you have been driving without a license for more than a hundred years...have you had any car accidents during this time?" Lin Nian rang the bell.
"You don't have a driver's license, and I don't have a driver's license, so of course I crash a lot!" Angers rang the bell. "That explains why I always have a new Aston Martin or Maserati in my garage! I have to thank the school board for that."
of generosity.”
"In order to consider reducing the school board's expenses, principal, have you ever thought about taking a driver's license?" Lin Nian rang the bell.
"At my age, I'm afraid the driving test agency won't let me in, right?" Angers smiled and rang the bell.
The two of them rang the bell at each other in a very tight rhythm. Both of them were masters of speed. Under this frequency of ringing the bell, Frost was not able to ring a complete bell until the end of the conversation. He could only hear the bell.
The bell rang again and again, accompanied by an angry man staring back and forth at the old man and the young man who were deliberately playing with the rules.
"Ange, pay attention to what you say and who you are talking to!" Frost did not choose to ring the bell, but knocked on the table angrily, feeling a little passionate.
"Similarly, please calm down, Director Frost." Lisa rang the bell and looked at Frost to remind her. After a pause, she said, "And I'm sorry for calling you by your name."
"I think Supervisor Frost's inquiry is very meaningful. Everyone must still remember what happened at the end of that incident. The leader of the non-party organization named 'Emperor' issued a provocation to the secret party, and 'S
"The class disappeared from our sight for three hours. This behavior is very abnormal." The old man twisting the beads rang the bell.
"Is this accusation too serious? Accusing too much will provoke internal disintegration." Lisa shook the bell and retorted.
"I agree with what Director Elizabeth said, the word 'betrayal' carries a heavy weight," the girl rang the bell after considering it.
"But we still have to consider this situation." The old man in a black suit also rang the bell with a serious expression.
"Can everyone be kinder..." The middle-aged man looked left and right and rang the bell.
The ringing came and went, and the whole room was ringing, mixed with the sounds of different heated words and discussions.
Lin Nian, who was sitting at the end of the long table, stopped ringing the bell. He folded his hands and looked at Ange across from him and raised his head slightly as if to ask something. The old man also looked at him with a smile and nodded in agreement.
—
The ringing suddenly stopped.
As each school director rang the bell, they discovered that the copper bell in their hands no longer made any sound. They all looked towards the end of the long table, where the tongues of the bells were placed one by one in a row in front of the boy.
A bell rang. It was the only copper bell that had not had its tongue removed.
"Everyone, let's open the skylight and speak frankly." Lin Nian put down the bell in his hand after ringing it. He no longer joked and mocked before, and said calmly, "If the issue among the school directors is whether my bloodline has a tendency to degenerate
, then I am willing to chat with you and let you give me some trust and peace of mind, but if someone wants to deliberately bring the topic to the word 'betrayal', then in my opinion this is simply a joke... After all
Whether I have any second thoughts or not, all school directors know it."
"What's the reason?" The girl rang the bell, but then she remembered that her copper bell could not make any sound.
"If I were the enemy who broke into the secret party, then what I just removed was not the bells of the bells, but the heads of the school directors." Lin Nian nodded politely and looked at everyone levelly.
"Even with Hilbert Jean Angers, your representative is here, and our teachers and students are against each other, I can still take off the heads of more than three school directors. This should be huge for the secret party.
He said, "Great power brings great freedom, and absolute power brings absolute freedom. If there is a range that can be divided, then I think I should be qualified to negotiate with the school directors head-on."
.”
"I testify that he is indeed qualified," Angers said, ringing the bell.
"You will never be able to sit in that position like Angers." At this time, Frost spoke, no longer angry. The light blue eyes under his eyebrows stared at Lin Nian's expressionless face.
Say "You know why?"
Hearing these words, Lin Nian slowly raised his head and looked at Frost. For the first time, his expression suddenly softened. It was so peaceful and harmonious that the school directors at the table noticed the atmosphere.
The atmosphere changed quietly, and he raised his head and looked at the boy.
"You'd better be careful before you say the next sentence." He warned, speaking very slowly and seriously.
"Only people without worries and weaknesses can sit in this position." Frost stared into his eyes and said, "But you are not such a person. You have your own bottom line, and there is always someone who can dig out what is hidden under your bottom line.
Something... or rather a person."
Amidst the screams, the air waves blew up Frost's hair, and the wind pressure caused ripples on his face. His eyes were still staring ahead, but the sight originally looking at Lin Nian was blocked by a document.
Separated.
The old man smoking a cigar at the end of the long table has also disappeared. At this time, he is standing next to Director Frost, holding a file board in his hand. On the file board, a brass bell tongue is inserted, a slender
The tongue of the bell was inserted deeply into the document board like a knife, more than half of it penetrated, and only missed half a centimeter from touching Frost's forehead on the seat.
"Lin Nian, don't be really angry with the school director."
Angers put down the document board in his hand, and the finger-thick white paper on it was forcibly penetrated by a blunt bell tongue without any sharpness. It was enough to see the speed and force when throwing it, and it was completely aimed at killing Frost.
Yes, if Angers takes a step slower, the bell tongue will penetrate the man's forehead, pass through the back of his head, fly through the wall, fly into the snow outside the house, and leave a hole a few hundred meters away.
"Because he is the school director, he got a reminder." Lin young man gently put down the throwing action, and one of the bells in the row in front of him was missing. He watched intently as the file board moved away and Frost
With an uncertain face, he said, "Actually, I just want to express a point of view and a truth this time." That is, some things are truly untouchable. Anyone who touches me will die. I also welcome people seeking death.
, because whoever seeks death, I will be happy to help him and make him regret being born."
"What you did just now is enough for us to send you to the prison in Chernobyl." The old man in the black suit said, looking at Lin Nian from afar, "You have already proven your loyalty, there is no need to fight for your loyalty again."
Leave cracks."
"Nothing is perfect." Lin Nian sat back in his chair and said expressionlessly, "Loyalty is only relative. You will never completely trust me. You can't even trust each other. The so-called secret party is just a group of people working together to pursue fame.
Profit-seeking people are like the capital that monopolizes the leader. There is actually no trust between you. You just temporarily agree on one thing and move forward for the common interests. So for the same reason, I will not ask for help.
You express your loyalty with all your heart, because loyalty can never be relied on, only the same interests can be relied on."
"What about you? What interests are you pursuing? I heard that you love money. Do you want to have wealth?" asked the old man in black suit.
"If it is difficult to maintain the integrity of the world, and it will usher in the end of disintegration when the four kings wake up, then what is the use of my wealth?" Lin Nian's voice was like an ice flow freezing the ocean, and the voice cracked the disintegrating world.
"I'm not afraid to emphasize to you how important that person in the academy is to me, because I just want to tell you one thing today, one thing that is very important to you: I love her,
Like she loves me."
Every school director knows who the 'she' the boy is talking about is, because in the hands of every school director, there is a document recording the girl who was hidden by the boy in Kassel Academy.
"I don't know if you guys who are so old that you are about to go to the grave and who are calculating power and the world every day know what love is, but I don't mind telling you that loving someone is not about being willing to die for them, but trying every means to think about it.
Live with her." Lin Nian said, "If there is something or someone who wants to prevent me from loving her, then this thing or person must be removed, whether it is the 'Emperor' or the 'School Board of Directors' or the
The four kings on the throne."
"The resurrection of those four monarchs represents the end of the world." Lisa said softly, she understood what Lin Nian meant.
"Yes, so they are blocking my way." Lin Young nodded lightly, "Then they have to die. One day I will find them one by one and kill them."
