Monster Hunting High School

First University has one president and two vice-presidents.

In name, the principal has overall authority, but in fact, the two vice-principals are responsible for all specific affairs of the school. Among them, Vice President Shi Hui is in charge of the Professors’ Joint Meeting, which mainly manages teaching, professor and student affairs; while Vice President Ruoyu is in charge of the School Working Committee, which is mainly responsible for the management of school workers, school affairs, and some research institutes.

Generally speaking, the two forces restrained each other within the First University, but also helped each other - just like the House of Lords and the House of Commons in the Moon Parliament.

But in addition to these two forces, First University also has a very powerful hidden force.

Relevant departments.

The 'relevant departments' of First University are directly under the president, and neither vice-president has the right to interfere. But just like the 'House of Elders' of the Moonlight Parliament has the deepest knowledge in the parliament, the 'relevant departments' of First University also have control over the most powerful force in the school - the forbidden curse. All aspects, including the research, experimentation, and preservation of forbidden curses, are controlled by the ‘relevant departments’.

This is a force that is transcendent but actually exists within the school.

During the days when the principal was in hiding, the presence of ‘relevant departments’ was also very low. On weekdays, the professors' joint meeting and the school working committee quarrel in various ways within First University, and the fight is lively. However, if the "relevant departments" try to get involved in the specific operations of First University, they will be attacked by the two forces.

You can be 'gloriously isolated', but you can't roll up your sleeves and die.

This is an institutional arrangement and has nothing to do with grudges.

Moreover, in the battle involving the position of the principal, no vice-principal will back down in front of the ‘relevant departments’, because they will not allow the status quo of choosing one from two to regress to one choice from three, or even one choice from more than one.

The same goes for the 'special explosion' that happened in the Silent Forest this time.

Although Vice Principal Ruoyu appeared at the scene of the explosion immediately and confirmed that the explosion may be related to the 'forbidden curse' or even the 'principal', the principal did not say anything after all.

This gave them enough confidence to prevent the 'relevant departments' from entering.

On this issue, the two vice-principals share a tacit understanding - they must be vigilant at all times, take precautions, control the influence of 'relevant departments' within a very limited range, and never allow 'relevant departments' to participate in the school daily.

Relevant departments will seize every opportunity and strive to expand their influence.

After all, it would be in the interests of everyone in the department concerned if there really was a principal from within the 'department'.

"...Your office's reply on Saturday night was that it is not during working hours and cannot provide necessary assistance." No. 41 repeated his purpose: "Today is already a working day. I believe that both of us can work together here." There is an agreement on this matter...the safety of First University is the most important thing for any department."

"...It is difficult to come to a decent conclusion on this matter in a short time. It will always be easier to hand it over to Professor Emma. It will not cause any trouble after I leave."

Professor Yao chewed on his pipe and looked through the documents in his hand. His lazy voice echoed in this small office, which seemed very convincing.

What a cunning old man.

The black cat cursed and took a sip of the hot goat's milk from the porcelain cup. At this moment, it was listening with interest to the conversation between Lao Yao and No. 41 with its ears pricked up.

Its presence in this office today was purely accidental.

On the one hand, the black cat has been kept in captivity for a long time, and it is always yelling to go out for a walk, which is very annoying; on the other hand, the black cat is also studying at Jiuyou College, and Lao Yao may be interested in his students. Face-wise, his attitude is a little softer.

Of course, the 'relevant departments' don't really expect to get any preferential treatment with this cat, but it can still be done to ease the tension.

"We only need the relevant data and divination clues collected by your office...a very simple request." No. 41 repeated his request persistently.

This is not simple at all.

Lao Yao bit his pipe and felt a bit bitter in his mouth - the relevant departments felt that the school took the lead in this magic experiment, but the fact was that the school had nothing to do with the explosion.

"Vice Principal Ruoyu will personally communicate with Master Baoyangzi about this matter." A loud voice interrupted No. 41's request and appeared in the office: "After you go back, you will explain this to your person in charge. "

Professor Emma wore a large silver cloak and looked a little dusty.

Behind her, the office door opened quietly again under the command of the door god.

"...And you should tidy up your room." The stern magician class professor glared at the owner of the room, tapped the spine of the law book on his waist, and a whirlwind was born out of thin air, destroying the room. The smoke inside swept away.

Lao Yao raised his hands in agreement.

No. 41 hesitated for a few seconds.

"In that case, we would be rude."

After bowing politely to the two deans, he took the black cat and left the office of the dean of Jiuyou College. The black cat quickly licked the last bit of milk in the cup and slowly followed No. 41's footsteps.

The two great wizards watched the guests leave.

"They don't know?" Professor Emma's words broke the silence in the room.

Professor Yao knew that she was talking about the relationship between the 'relevant departments' and the principal - in theory, the relationship between the relevant departments and the principal should be closer than they, the deans. But now the vice-principal and even the deans already know that the explosion in the forest is related to the principal, but the 'relevant departments' don't seem to know.

The meaning of this is worth pondering.

"It seems that he doesn't know." Lao Yao bit his pipe, squinted his eyes, and sat back on the large leather chair, looking a little decadent and lazy: "...In short, this matter has nothing to do with us. It’s better not to get involved.”

"They have already reported the accident, what else do they want?"

Professor Emma is the dean who succeeds Lao Yao as the rotating chairperson of the professors’ joint meeting in May. These bad things that happen in the school are all her troubles:

"If they hadn't caused trouble, no one would know what would have happened in the Silent Forest... Now it has been spread outside that First University is experimenting with a new forbidden spell! I get a headache just thinking about it."

"They want to use public opinion to tell the truth," Professor Yao shook his head with a smile, turned over the information under his hands, took out one, and handed it to Professor Emma: "...But it can't be said that they are causing trouble...On the contrary, Their small actions help us a lot.”

Professor Emma took the material.

That is a list of candidates to be submitted to the parliament next month to help First University defend the black jail.

Compared with the previous announcements, this time the list submitted by the Yuexia Parliament is very simple and includes all five senators, as well as dozens of elders from the Yuexia Parliament.

"This is..." Professor Emma looked through the list and raised her eyebrows: "They accepted our request so easily? During the last meeting, their reply letter was still so tough... I thought The school needs to issue a compulsory recruitment order.”

"This is an unexpected surprise." Old Yao bit his pipe and smiled: "Maybe they thought the explosion in the Silent Forest was a warning from the school to them... The older the old men in the Yuexia Council are, the bolder they are."
