If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon.

"Did you say goodbye to your sister before leaving?"

In the passenger cabin, Angers sat on the sofa and looked at Lin Nian who was drinking orange juice across from him.

"As I said, the reaction was not big. The explanation was that the school board wanted to see me in person to commend me for my achievements in the last mission. Maybe they would also give me a pennant. My sister said that if they did, they would give it to me. She, she hangs it on the wall of her bedroom and reads it every day."

"But you know that the main reason why the school board of directors summoned you this time is not to commend you, right?" Angers took out the wine glass and bottle from the small refrigerator, and made himself a fragrant martini simply and quickly. He inserted a lemon slice and pushed it to Lin Nian, but he waved it down.

"I don't like drinking very much, I just drink juice."

"There are very few boys your age who don't like drinking." Angers smiled and took the glass back, "Then I guess you don't like cigars or cigarettes either?"

"My sister said she would break one of my legs and throw me out when she saw me smoking," Lin Nian said.

"Obviously she's scaring you. Judging from how much she cares about you, even if she finds you doing something she doesn't like, she'll only scold you, right?"

"Then you avoid me and go to the room to cry secretly? I don't like her crying." Young Lin said in a low voice, "Are we going off topic?"

"If you talk about serious things every time you are with a person, then that person's image will often become serious in your heart. I don't want to be labeled as a serious person by my students. Than "More than the teacher and principal, I want to be your friend and talk to you about ordinary things." Angers took a sip of his martini.

"Principal, do you often chat with students like this?"

"We don't talk often. After all, we have a lot of things going on. We might be at the college in the morning, and then we go to Russia on the other side of the ocean in the afternoon. After coming out of the Kremlin in the evening, we have to rush to the Columbus Theater for a music performance." Angers Said, "In my spare time, I will choose to make tea and read for a while in the office, or go to my favorite restaurant for a drink during the rainy season, which allows me to squeeze out some free time to chat in my busy schedule. There are very few students, you are one of them."

"I suppose Caesar Gattuso counts as one?"

"Forget it. If nothing else happens, your high school classmate Chu Zihang will also come to my place to sit and have a drink and chat for a while." Angers said, "You are all the best among outstanding students. A group of people, it’s worth investing more time in cultivating you.”

"Do I have to have value before I can receive your investment? The principal is also an unexpectedly straightforward person." Lin Nian paused and said.

"Love has no boundaries and treats every student equally? Just listen to these words. I have never expressed this to the outside world. Kassel College is recognized as an elite system even in the eyes of all students. Our mission means that we must We need elites to lead us to solve our destiny, everyone wants to be that person, and I am also looking forward to that person finding me and taking over my burden," Angers said.

"Take over your responsibility?" Lin Nian stopped drinking juice, put down the cup and raised his head and said, "Principal, you don't want to retire, do you?"

"What, are you interested in taking my class? Although the position of principal of Cassel College is a little busy, it also has many benefits, such as direct flights around the world, waiting for your special car to rush to the airport, and the official seal in your arms. You can temporarily mobilize wealth of less than one billion euros. Your external identity represents the entire secret party. Your backstage is the monopoly capital group that controls half of the golden circle in Europe. You are as rich as any country!" Angers looked at Lin Nian and smiled. "To use a saying from your hometown, it should be the so-called: below one person, above ten thousand people."

"Under one person, who is under him? The school board?" Lin Nian said, "To be honest, I have little interest in being the dog of the school board. No intention to offend you, principal. As far as I know, the position of the president of Cassel College is considered to be the school board. The 'representative' of the school board, to put it bluntly, is the dog of the school board. But you, the principal, are different. Everyone has never regarded you as the hawk dog of the school board, but as the principal of Cassel College. , look at you as Hilbert Jean Angers.”

"Personal charm? This is how students praise me, and I never shy away from these compliments that may be too flattering, because this is the recognition given to me by everyone." Angers looked at the half-full martini in his hand and smiled lightly, "I want to It is not difficult to sit in this position, but it is definitely not easy. I am now 131 years old. Or 132 years old? I can’t remember clearly. I changed my passport many times in the process, and I can’t quite remember the year I was actually born. Press Normally speaking, people of my age should abdicate long ago and find a trustworthy and capable junior to take my place. He can sit in my position and continue to lead the new generation. But I am still sitting firmly in this position. , do you know why?"

"Principal, you can't be greedy for power." Lin Nian shook his head, "Principal, can't you find someone qualified enough to take over your position?"

"." Angers didn't say anything. He took a sip of his martini and smiled to himself, looking at the thick white rolling clouds outside the porthole.

"I remember that there were several other 'S' classes in history. Are they not qualified to take over your position as principal? Or did they unfortunately die in the middle of slaying the dragon?"

"Blood can change many things, but it cannot explain everything." Angers said, "'S' level is only 'S' level. We are mixed race, half human. As human beings, we will always have seven emotions and six desires." The trap is just like your trap is your sister, the girl you like on the other end of the phone but didn’t say it out loud, and the senior brother you once high-fived on the basketball court. When there is a trap, there will be weaknesses. When a person is everywhere When he is weak, he is no longer strong, and even if he is an 'S' class, he will be manipulated like a lackey on a chain."

Lin Nian paused and looked at Ange, waiting for his words.

"The position of president of Kassel College is not easy to fill. After my old friend Meineke passed away, we built this college according to his ideas, and I took the position of the first president. From then on to Now, the principal of Kassel College has never changed, but other things have changed a lot, such as the school board of directors." Angers said, "Power will always change, and dynasties will not always prosper. What is needed in the end may be just a foolish and tyrannical king. Authority is always unreliable, no matter what time it is. The scepter of power will not change, but the person holding it will. And what I have always been worried about is This is it, and it turns out that reality is getting closer and closer to my fears.”

"Is there anyone on the school board who makes you uncomfortable, principal?" Lin Nian asked.

"It's hard to say this kind of thing. No one can guarantee whether there are monitors installed by the investigation team hidden in the chairs under our butts." Angers smiled and looked at Lin Nian to raise his glass.

"Even if there is, what can I do to impeach you?" Lin Nian also raised his glass.

"Well, they have wanted to do this all the time for more than ten years." Angers nodded seriously, "But unfortunately, the school board is not someone's voice, and it may take a lot of effort to achieve this. , or find some opportunities worthy of being mentioned on the table, such as your incident this time."

"Did I implicate the principal?"

"Not really. The flaw you exposed this time won't be the trigger for them to pull the trigger. It can only be regarded as a pile of weights to fill the gunpowder." Angers waved his hand, "I dug you out. You are working under my protection in the secret party, and even the school board of directors cannot find out too much of your information. Because I ordered Norma to clear your past records, so in a sense, now you It’s someone from my side.”

Lin Nian's brows twitched slightly but he said nothing.

"It is difficult for the school board to move me. I have sat in this position for too long. The reason why I do not hand over power is because I am worried that they will carry out some more radical reforms after I leave. Sometimes reforms can bring about It's a good thing, but people always ignore that reform will bleed, and excessive wounds will cause disease. Now when foreign enemies are at risk, we cannot afford this kind of behavior that will cause eight hundred losses to ourselves before the war has even begun." Angers said, "School Some behaviors of the board of directors need to be curbed, and I am their insurance to curb them. They have seen me uncomfortable for a long time, and they always want to pull out my insurance to launch reforms."

After listening to Angers words, Lin Nian took a breath. Sure enough, the topic was finally revealed. He has been feeling an indescribable feeling of rejection towards the school board since a long time ago, and Angers is now the first. Opening the skylight for the first time exposed these things.

This was the beginning of him taking sides in a real sense and dividing the gap between the Angers faction and the school board faction.

"I think the secret party's internal mission is to slay the dragon." Lin Nian considered his words and said, "What did the school board want to do? It aroused resistance from the principal."

"It's not what they want to do, but what they are doing." Angers corrected softly, "Those in authority always see farther than us. When we are still thinking about how to gain the upper hand in the war, they are already thinking about it." After the good war, the city was divided up. These wrong foresights will inflate people's ambitions, leading to many irreparable mistakes, and even have irreversible consequences for the upcoming war. The war with the Dragon Clan is everything to me. It’s not like I can’t swing the butcher knife to correct the mistakes of betrayers and troublemakers at the right time.”

"By the way, am I also the butcher's knife in your hands, principal?" Lin Nian said.

"Maybe." Ange didn't deny it. He glanced at him and smiled softly, "Actually, I thought about training you to be my successor before, but later I found that you have too many bonds and are not suitable for me. In this position, once a new butt is seated in the position of deputy, the school board will always try every means to find a way to turn this butt towards them. Regardless of the consequences, no matter the cost."

"I have a bad feeling about the school board now." Lin Nian bluntly told Angers his thoughts, "It may be even worse after this meeting."

"I'm not worried about this." Angers waved his hand, looked into Lin Nian's eyes and smiled, "You can say whatever you want when the time comes. I will still be the president of Kassel College for many years. If not If there is an accident, I will keep sitting down. As long as I don’t fall, no one will compete for the power in my hands, and only I can use this power without any scruples to keep you. After all, I have no so-called The school board also knows this. They can't handle me, so they worry about me and speculate on me."

"But I'm different. In their opinion, I have many weaknesses. If they can't attack you, principal, they will selectively target me." Lin Nian followed Angers words, "Because in the It seems to them that you have been behind me from the first day I entered Kassel College.”

"If you are the representative of the school board, then I am your representative." He looked at Angers and said.

"Smart boy, I like to deal with smart people." Angers nodded in praise.

".So it looks like something out of the ordinary will happen at today's meeting?"

"I will." Ange looked at Lin Young and smiled and said, "I will definitely do it."

ps①: I am not feeling well at the moment.

ps②: After this chapter, it should be clear to those who read clearly that Lin Nian has officially joined the team and is no longer a simple 'S' level student. This means a lot, which we will explain later.
