Li Xin scanned the dossier again. Interestingly enough, even among the eyewitnesses, those who claimed to have seen the death occurred suddenly, did not see the direct perpetrator.

By noon, Li Xin headed to the Canon Law School. It was lunchtime, and the food at the school was definitely better than that of the Night Patrol.

Li Xin filled a plate with food. By tonight, he could use the dice to make another determination; if there was no perpetrator, then there was no victim, which raised questions about the nature of these people.

Could it be related to the deity of death?

Highly possible, this bizarre situation might be linked to the deity of death’s authority. But even so, concluding the case posed a headache.

Li Xin mused while eating, suddenly someone tapped him on the shoulder, "Brother Li, here you are, I’ve been looking for you everywhere!"

Lu Shuai’s exuberant and distinctive voice echoed, accompanied by a tall and robust leading student, followed by several men and women wearing Black Rose badges. "Brother Li, let me introduce you to our Canon Law School’s President Black Rose, member of the Upper Council, Bai Peng."

"Mr. President, this is my good brother Li Xin, who was recently specially recruited into our school. He’s far stronger than me and Huerta."

"President Bai, I am Li Xin." Li Xin put down his chopsticks and stood up.

Bai Peng, tall and handsome, curiously examined Li Xin, "Brother, you look familiar. Since you’re Lu Shuai’s brother, you are also my brother, Bai Peng’s brother. In the school, call me Brother Peng, and I’ll look after you."

"Thank you, Brother Peng."

"Haha, a straightforward person. I have high hopes for you. Since you’re a special recruit, you automatically have pre-qualification for the Black Rose. After a few months of settling, I’ll move you to official membership!" Bai Peng said cheerfully.

After speaking, Bai Peng pulled Lu Shuai aside, "How about that matter?"

"My cousin is busy, it might take a little while," Lu Shuai replied. "But don’t worry, I’ll take care of it. You know she’s campaigning for the vice president of the Divine Revelation Black Rose. Once she’s done, I’ll definitely organize the fellowship!"

Bai Peng nodded repeatedly, "I know, I know, there’s a lot of turmoil on the Divine Revelation side. Hopefully, our cousin will be elected vice president. Your vice president position is covered by me, keep it confidential. Go chat with your friend; I need to greet the old Jiang from the elite martial arts class, today’s session won’t be easy."

With that, Bai Peng patted Lu Shuai on the shoulder and left with a group of people. Lu Shuai smirked, "Brother Li, just wait, I’ll go grab some food."

Soon, Lu Shuai returned with a large plate of food and sat down, "I’m starving, Brother Li, where were you this morning? I couldn’t find you after searching everywhere."

"I had some things to take care of. Is there anything going on in the school?"

"Introducing you to old Bai. Joining the Canon Law School without joining the Black Rose is pointless," Lu Shuai said while eating. "Bai Peng is the direct heir of the Bai Family, a major force among Beijing people. The Canon Law School worked hard to bring him here, one of the Nine Dragons in Dragon Capital, he joined six months before me. This guy is really forthright and is an admirer of Luthor. I also benefit from it; although the Canon Law School isn’t as good as the Divine Revelation, life here is indeed comfortable."

"Is the Black Rose here very important, is it troublesome?" Li Xin asked while eating some greens.

Lu Shuai’s expression became serious, "Important, very important. Even if you have power and background, if you want a good future in Dragon Capital, your involvement with the Black Rose directly decides your starting height and future depth. It also provides opportunities for those with power but no background. The more you learn, the more impressive my old relative appears. Black Rose members indirectly integrate the new generation of the Kingdom’s major forces, forming an unofficial advancement model. Although Dragon Capital is different from Celestial Capital, the first step is to become a school-prep member, then a full member, and only then might you be selected as a cadre of the Kingdom’s Black Rose, entering the cadre means being part of the talent reserve, like Bai Peng who not only is a Kingdom Black Rose member but also one of the Nine Major General Teams, these nine are called the Nine Dragons, second only to Chairman Ji Mingyue."

Li Xin understood; instead of struggling in the old system’s quagmire, it’s better to create a new system accepted by all parties. Although the current system is mostly held by old powers, it offers new rising channels for new forces, essentially breaking class differences. Using the Canon Law School and Black Rose’s new order to bind all parties together, any attempts to change would face backlash from this new order.

"The Nine Major Generals, let’s not talk about them, they directly gain Upper Council membership. After graduating, general cadres directly correspond to various departments, skipping further selection processes. It also poses problems for parachuters. This was the fair system established by Governor Luthor back in the day, recognized by all parties over the years. Whether a noble family or commoners, they all have to go through tests. No one can skip the steps," Lu Shuai said with envy. "The current council president is Ji Mingyue from the Divine Revelation Canon Law School, our Princess... you wouldn’t not know, right?"

Li Xin touched his nose, "Should I know her, now I do."

"The president thinks highly of you; having affinity really matters. With your strength, full membership is just a matter of time. We three brothers can fight together again!" Lu Shuai said with delight. "Oh, there’s an elite martial arts class this afternoon that you must attend."

"I need to go out for some business this afternoon," Li Xin thought and replied, but what Lu Shuai said wasn’t wrong, merely the path was different.

Walking on a path not suited for oneself, challenges become the norm.

"Don’t be like that. The elite martial arts class is extremely important; it’s part of the assessment and very important for becoming a full member," Lu Shuai said. "I don’t care, even if you’re not interested, you have to support me; I’m also campaigning for vice president of the school. Without you, I feel empty inside, Brother Li~ dear brother...."

Li Xin got goosebumps, "My god, don’t act like this, I’ll go."

Lu Shuai immediately beamed, "Haha, Brother Li cares for me. The elite martial arts class is a very important course at the Dragon Capital Canon Law School; it’s taught by senior-grade experts from the Royal City Knight Order. They tour various schools, inspecting the conditions, and the schools regard it highly. Not only can you learn a lot, it’s also an excellent opportunity to showcase your skills."

Li Xin inwardly admired Lu Shuai; he has clear goals, a good family background, smart, down-to-earth, can talk with anyone, and is full of enthusiasm. Success for such a person is just a matter of time.

Dean Chen is a decent person; life at the Canon Law School seems promising. Li Xin thought about it and couldn’t discern anything further from the dossier; he’d have to wait until evening.

After the meal, they followed Lu Shuai to the tranquil training ground. The Beijing people value martial arts, so the Hundred Martial Hall focused on imparting skills and became popular quickly in Li Dragon. The students at the entrance stopped them, but upon seeing Lu Shuai’s Black Rose badge, they quickly stepped aside; another student blocked Li Xin.

"He is Li Xin, specially recruited by Dean Chen, automatically becoming a Black Rose prelim and eligible to enter," Lu Shuai explained.

"Understood, the president mentioned it. Senior, please enter."

There were already over a hundred students in the training ground, with more arriving. The instructor was already there.
