Chapter 529 – Covert Operation
The subsequent episodes of “The Bloody Battle of Jin Ling” were really lackluster and I didn’t have many appearances as the final BOSS, which I was happy about.
Director Cao would always play tricks in the preview of the next episode, making people think that the nude scenes in the next episode were comparable to pornography, which was not the case. Over time, the audience eventually became aware of Director Cao’s tricks and stopped paying attention to his short film series.
On the contrary, I, as Wu Sheng’s double, repeatedly appeared in front of the camera dressed in ancient costumes with a Rolex watch. These appearances caused a lot of debate among netizens, such as the effect of product placements.
I wasn’t interested in those discussions at all. The only scene that left an impression on me was the ending where Young Thug was heavily injured and unable to escape from a fire, but his beloved dog didn’t leave him and they died in each other’s arms. It was moving and tragic, at the same time, it was also in line with my aesthetic sense.
Although there were attentive netizens that pointed out it was a female dog and the Jin Ling Young Thug may have had a ‘bestiality’ relationship, but I always thought it was the scene with the most morals, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it the only artistic scene.
Vacations always pass quickly. I haven’t touched the summer homework at all, but in the blink of an eye it was already late July. It was getting hotter every day, whenever this happens, I would believe that the scientists’ speculation about global warming is correct, but I stop believing it when winter comes.
I visited Li CunZhuang twice during this period and he recovered well. His IQ did improve significantly, to the point where he could relay jokes he heard from other people.
When the class leader heard that Li CunZhuang was hospitalized, she also came for a visit. Coincidentally, we ran into each other by chance, but we were both standing under the “family planning specialist” sign when we met. The class leader may have been afraid of misunderstandings, so she passed by in a hurry.
The hospital had a few girls who were wearing masks and looked to be a similar age to the class leader. They were holding slips stamped with the bright red words of “medical abortion” and their eyes were full of fear and they all looked helpless.
I didn’t want to criticize the current society, but I do want to say to their boyfriends: will you die by buying a condom? If you’re too embarrassed to buy one at the drugstore, you can buy them from vending machines or online! Our store welcomes everyone and treats everyone equally!
It was strange, although I went to the hospital and the VIP building several times, I have never met Dr. Yu. He was always either out because of an emergency or sleeping. It made me have some doubts about whether Dr. Yu actually existed, or if it was somebody everyone made up to fool me.
Until one day, Ai Mi showed me the new function of her phone. Dr. Yu was bored and installed a weak laser emitter function on Ai Mi’s phone. If you pointed it at someone’s eyes, the laser would temporarily blind them.
It was designed for Ai Mi’s for self-defense, but she used it on set to prank the other actors. No one dared to speak out against her, and the one who suffered the most was Kyle, but he magnanimously said it wasn’t a big deal.
“If it wasn’t because of the phone’s lack of power, I could have made a laser that makes the enemy permanently blind…”
Apparently, that’s what Dr. Yu said about his modification.
Looking at Ai Mi lovingly play with her cell phone laser and Obama hiding when he saw his master take out her cell phone because he had fallen victim before, I was more inclined to believe Dr. Yu was an actual person.
In addition when I passed by his room, the snoring that came through the wooden door was quite loud.
When it got too hot outside, I didn’t go to 28 Middle to play basketball, instead I went to the youth recreation center by the Da Ning River. Since it was close to the river, any breeze passing by the river would be a few degrees cooler.
On July 25th, my dad went on a business trip to discuss business with a manufacturer to discuss business, he wanted to become the only dealer in Dong Shan city.
I went to the youth recreation center to play basketball, but encountered a sudden rainstorm. Fortunately I realized the weather wasn’t great before I left, so I wore waterproof pants, otherwise I would have been completely soaked.
Although I didn’t play basketball, I still felt hungry as usual. I used my body heat to dry off my wet clothes while I ate lunch in a nearby restaurant. As I patted my belly and prepared to go home, I spotted a familiar figure behind a telephone pole.
Huh, the waist-level long hair, the white shirt with jeans, the tall girl with a good figure, who else could it be but the class leader.
Why is she hiding behind the telephone pole so secretively. It was like she was a hunter waiting for her prey.
The class leader’s attention was focused in front of her where many fashionably dressed men and women passed by.
“Class leader, what are you doing?” I ran over to greet her and startled her.
After realizing it was me, the class leader calmed down a bit, but she seemed to be considering whether or not to trust me with the truth.
I looked at the place where she was staring at and realized that it was the front door of a hotel. It was decorated with a lot of pink and red, I’m afraid it was of the same nature as a Japanese love hotel.
I couldn’t help but laugh and teased: “Have you never been in one before? If you’re curious, do you want me to take you in for a look?”
The class leader glanced at me and said, “I’m here on official business, stay if you’re willing to help, otherwise leave.”
“Business? Are you… watching someone?”
I was very worried that Shu Zhe couldn’t resist the temptation of “Cilantro Buns” and came with him to this hotel, then the class leader tracked her brother here.
If that’s the case, I would be asking for death by staying here. Once the class leader finds out the truth, it would be strange if she didn’t kill me.
Fortunately, after listening to the class leader’s explanation, I realized it had nothing to do with Shu Zhe.
Instead, it was related to Zhuang Ni, the student who hasn’t been coming to school.
A senior student who recently graduated and was once part of the same “cat club” as the class leader, bumped into the class leader yesterday and she told her: the suspended girl who’s really good at drawing from your class was recently seen frequently at hotels, I’m afraid it’s not a good sign.
The class leader immediately understood it was Zhuang Ni based on the description and understood the severity of the situation.
The other day at the parent-teacher conference, teacher Yu said a senior was found to be pregnant and her future was ruined. The class leader was already worried about the safety of the girls in the class, so when she heard Zhuang Ni was frequenting hotels, she came to it with her own eyes, then she will make countermeasures.
“Ye Lin, you came just in time. My vision gets obstructed if I hid behind the telephone pole, so you stand out there and see if Zhuang Ni comes. If she intends to enter the hotel, immediately stop her.”
The reason why the class leader was sneaking around was partly because she was doing surveillance, but the other part was because she was a girl. Since she was alone, she would be stared at by the passing couples, even if she was here for proper matters, she would still feel uncomfortable.
It was a rare chance to show off my superiority as a boy, so I stood right in the open and monitored the couples coming and going to find traces of Zhuang Ni.
However, standing alone in front of a hotel as a man was an easy way to cause misunderstanding.
“Eh, what’s up with that guy, what’s he staring at us for, is he jealous?”
“If you don’t have a girlfriend, then go find one. Why is he just watching us in front of the hotel?”
“In my opinion, maybe his girlfriend cheated on him. He came to catch them in the act.”
“Look at his face, I think you’re right. I’m afraid he’s going to run in the hotel later…”
“Pfftt…” the class leader heard the chatter of the passersby, then she saw my painful expression and laughed out loud.
“What are you laughing at, it’s all because of you. Get over here and stand beside me.”
The class leader waved the rolled up newspaper in her hand and hesitated.
“You’re going to let me be ridiculed by everyone? Since you’re going to be police officer in the future, it’s too suspicious if I stand here alone. If you can’t even handle a little chatter and let a suspect escape, then it would be a dereliction of your duty.”
The class leader bit her lips and felt that I was right. Then she closed her eyes for five-seconds to mentally prepare herself, then she moved to my side and stood beside me.
But she opened the newspaper in her hands and blocked the upper half of her body including her face.
The sky cleared after the rain and the sun overhead grew more intense. Less and less people came and left the hotel, and they also stopped gossiping about us.
But there were still some busybody’s who said “These students want to go to a hotel, but doesn’t have the guts to enter, why don’t they just go to a park and do it outside.” or other similar phrases which made the class leader blush.
After 40 minutes of surveillance and no sign of Zhuang Ni, I became discouraged and said:
“Class leader, your source of information might have been wrong, maybe she mistook someone else for Zhuang Ni.”
The class leader was displeased with my half-heartedness. She peeked her eyes from on top the newspaper and continued her surveillance.
“Hide!” The class leader suddenly pushed me backward. While I obediently hid behind the pole, I understood her intentions.
Zhuang Ni was walking towards the hotel entrance a short distance away from us.
She still had sickly pale skin and soft shoulder-length hair. She had the bangs that violated school rules and black stockings under her skirt…
The only difference was there were slight traces of joy in her eyes that were once full of depression.
She came alone, but the class leader was so preoccupied with finding her male companion that she lost the chance to intercept her. By the time the class leader realized, Zhuang Ni had already entered the hotel.
“The guy could have opened a room first and then waited for her inside, right?”
I offered my own idea.
