Chapter 537: Ghosts

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The truth will come out once Lu Shu had put his hand to it. Ever since the strawberry incident, many of the villagers decided to bow their heads and make way whenever they saw Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu.
There was a saying that the kind will be bullied by others. But Lu Shu had never thought of himself as a kind person. Becoming the village tyrant did not sound good to the ears, since this sort of title was associated with bullying others and unlawfully seizing good-looking widows. But Lu Shu did not mind.
In the end, what he needed was simply to prevent people from stealing his Chinese chives.
After breakfast, Lu Xiaoyu carried her bag and prepared to go to school. Before she left, she suddenly asked, “Lu Shu, are you not going to school?”
Lu Shu was speechless. Times have really changed. In the past, he was the one who urged Xiaoyu to go to school. Now, it was the other way round…
“I… I still have other proper business to do.” Lu Shu waved. “Hurry up and go to school.”
He now felt a sense of rejection for school. Why?!
It was not because he was now in the same class as Lu Xiaoyu. He had not mentally prepared himself for this!
In the past, he had overlooked this problem. He had thought that it was good enough for Lu Xiaoyu to be willing to study and go to school. In the end, he was in the same class as his younger sister, who was 6 years younger than him. Was this awkward or awkward?!
His younger sister was 11 years old. She was in her third year of high school and had successfully entered the Cultivation College. What about Lu Shu? He was 17 years old and in his third year of high school. He had to repeat one year if he wanted to enter the Cultivation College.
Lu Shu could not bear this humiliation…
According to Zhong Yutang, the Cultivation College had taken in more students than usual. Over three hundred people, made up of the entire Luo City Daoyuan Class and members of the Heavenly Network, had been assigned to the security formation. This meant that the passing rate was about 70%.
Lu Shu came to the Beimang mountain base in the early morning. In reality, the address of the Luo City Cultivation College and the Heavenly Network Luo City Headquarters were the same. This also meant that in the future when Lu Shu came here for work, his classmates would be here for school…
Thinking about this made Lu Shu filled with anger!
Before he came to the Beimang base, he had called Xi Fei. When he approached the door, he saw Xi Fei and twenty other people quietly standing by the door. They clapped and jokingly said, “Welcome the national hero, Lu Shu, to honour us with your presence and offer guidance in our work…”
But their warmth was not fake. Not many people knew that Lu Shu had killed Takashima, and the fact was classified information. But even if he had not killed Takashima, the fact that Lu Shu had killed Nogiwa Takenobu at the Koh Chang Island ruins made the members of the Heavenly Network shocked beyond description.
Hence they had all come out to welcome him. At the same time, they wanted to see how the young man, who had killed a Class B expert, looked like.
Many people had never seen Lu Shu. After all, transfer orders were frequent after the previous admission test. Many members of the Heavenly Network had only recently been assigned to jobs in Luo City. Thus, for some people, their image of Lu Shu in their head was of a robust, strong and powerful person, like Li Yixiao.
In the end, when they saw him today, they were shocked. He was so delicate and pretty. He did not seem like an expert at all. There seemed to be no difference between him and and an ordinary sophomore. Lu Shu was speechless. Was everyone so lethargic in the morning? He cleared his throat. “Since everyone is so welcoming, I will talk about three points. Each point has ten sub-points…”
“From Xi Fei’s distress, +666…”
“From…”
“Wait, wait. You don’t have to speak…” Xi Fei quickly held back Lu Shu. He knew that Lu Shu liked to drag things out. If no one stopped him, he could make you feel sick from morning to night.
Lu Shu pulled Xi Fei to one side. “Hurry up and settle the procedures for me. I heard that I don’t have to attend lessons and just have to stay in the base. Is this true?”
Xi Fei shook his head. “You don’t have to be at the base. If anything happens, we will immediately alert all the members of the security formation to go to the scene of the incident.”
“Oh…” Lu Shu was slightly sad that he still had to attend lessons.
To speak the truth, Xi Fei also did not want Lu Shu to be at the base. If not, there would be a lot of pressure for them to be in the same place as a tycoon, who was practically a Class B.
“All the members of the Daoyuan Class have to undergo training from next week onwards,” said Xi Fei. “Since all the official members of the Heavenly Network have undergone the recruit training, it is not to inculcate new occupational skills. This process is still very important. The training will last for approximately three months…”
“I’m not going.” Lu Shu rejected even before Xi Fei could finish his sentence. “I’ve completed my training.”
At that time, when all the geniuses with top aptitude had undergone the training, he was in the training as well. This had no relation with whether he wanted to bear hardships. All the hardships that was to bear had been borne by him. Furthermore, he had other more important things to attend to.
Xi Fei was slightly annoyed. Talking to this tycoon in private was simply depressing. If Lu Shu said that he would not go, what could he say? Even Zhong Yutang would not be willing to get Lu Shu to be involved. They would have to ask Heavenly King Nie to personally talk to Lu Shu…
But Xi Fei did not expect that Heavenly King Nie was now also hiding from Lu Shu…
The current situation was very meaningful. Everyone had their own disputes. Lu Shu inexplicably become a candidate who ran his own course and came within no one’s jurisdiction.
Lu Shu slowly headed back, trying to waste more time. In the afternoon, he finally decided to go for lessons.
Just like what he had told Lu Xiaoyu, studying was not for the sake of others, nor was it for the sake of a diploma. It was to nurture one’s habits of thinking. There were times when the difference between the thinking patterns of those who had attended formal education and those who had not was drastic.
Lu Shu was different from when he had returned to school and blown out someone’s basketball the previous time. This time, Lu Shu was unusually low-key. He was afraid that others would discover him.
He quietly entered the school campus. Every sight in school made him feel a wave of nostalgia. The times he had spent at the Japanese High School earlier were very meaningful too. The significance and memories of those student days seemed to be the sounds of laughter everyone had in the fragment of time they had wasted.
Lu Shu low-key completed the process to report back after a leave of absence with Shi Qingyuan. As he walked out of the staffroom, all the teachers in the staffroom were dumbfounded.
“The one that just reported back after his absence… isn’t he the national hero, Lu Xiaoshu?! Didn’t he sacrifice himself?” The teacher who had once invigilated Lu Xiaoyu’s Chinese subject asked in astonishment. She had even apologized to Lu Xiaoyu after the incident!
Shi Qingyuan’s expression was complex. “It is indeed him. Seems like he did not die…”
This was a pain in the ass for all the teachers in the Daoyuan Class. The students under their wing were bizarre and motley. If the students starting spouting fire during a fight, would you not be scared? If students who had advanced to Class C started shakily playing with flying swords during lessons, would you not be scared?
Lu Shu was even more incredibly unreal. According to the official announcement, he was dead. But now he had revived and was alive. What, are you a ghost now?!
